FRIDAY. MAKCH 31, ISGS.
I'KO.W OI K E VEXING EDITION
OF YESTERDAY,
Departure of the Flag of Trice Boat. —
The inexorable laws of military necessity
have required that the wives aud families
of Confederate officers who have remained in
the citv since the evacuation be removed with
out the lines. As has already been the case
on like occasions, the execution of this order,
which bears heavily upon many-who are
comparatively blameless, was tempered with
all possible kindness and clemency. Every
facility was offered for the transportation of
the families and baggage of those departing
to the boat, ambulances and wagons being
sent to the houses, aud the officers having
matters in charge being gentlemanly and
considerate.
The day was dark and rainy in the morn
ing, and was in accord with the gloom and
sorrow pervading many households; but to
wards when the most were safely on
hoard, and bestowed in the comfortable sa
loon of the Hudson, the rain ceased, the
clouds broke up, and the sun shone out
•brightly, making all more cheerful, and
bringing to many a weary and lonely heart
the promise of an early lifting of the clouds
that so long have brooded over our darkened
land aud the sunlight of peace and happi
ness once agair.
The steamer Hudson was assigned for this
trip, aud will proceed up the river as far as
“Poor Robin, 1 ' a point about 105 miles above
the city. The passengers will then be trans
ferred to the boat sent to meet the Hudson
at this place, and will be taken through
to Augusta. It is expected that the trip will
take about three days and a half. The boat
is under command of Capt. John P. Baker,
Inspector General of the District. The pas
sengers number about sixty in all—ladies
and children. .
A New Abolition Idea in Boston.— The
good people of Boston have lately been much
exercised over an order adopted by the Board
oi Aldermen of that city, to stop the ringing
of the church bells at certain hours of the
day. It seems that some progressive spirits
of the city of notions, have all at once dis
covered that the cheery seven o’clock bells,
the welcome noon bells announcing dinner
and a pause in the day’s labor, the time-hou
ored nine o'clock bells notifying all of the
hour “when honest people should he at
home," aud marking the point between early
and late in the evening,—are nuisances,
severally and collectively. These iconoclas
tic reformers have brought to the support of
their wretched project, the ingenious plea
of the depredation of real estate in the vicini
ty of these public monitors. Perhaps the
public-spirited gentlemen would desire to
stop the striking of the steeple clocks with a
like argument, or the preaching of Methodist
ministers within two squares of their domi
ciles. But the people had no idea of losing
the ‘familiar voices of the old bells whose
tones had set them free from school at twelve
o’clock, and at nine o’clock had brought
them to the home fireside to chat awhile be
fore bed time, in their childhood, and had
summoned them cheerfully to their business
m after years. The growing dissatisfaction
finally found expression in a protest made by
the Common Couucil against the order ot the
Aldermen, and the bells will undoubtedly
ring on.
The Breaking of the Cyy Guard House.
From the facts ascertained of the breaking of
this prison, east oi the Old Cemetery, no
blame is attached to the officers and others in
charge. Those Wright confined as a prisoner,
wa6 released by Roach, he having picked the
lock of Wright’s cell. Wright went through
the tunnel aud jumped the Cemetery fence
with Roach and his comrades. Ho wonld
have immediately returned to the prison, but
was prevented by Roach who threatened
Wright a life with a huge bowie knife. The
prison Wbadly constructed, aud by means of
a few tools consisting of a bowie knife, a door
hinge and a glass bottle only,these miscreants
succeeded in escaping.
Second PrtovosT ComtT. —Owing to the
continued inclement weather, there were hut
few cases disposed of this morning. Several
citizens who were summoned to appear for
violating General Order No. It'., failed so to
do, and the cases were continued. Those
who are summoned to attend the court by
it 3 Orderlies, who are colored U. S. Volun
teers, will not in future be excused for con
tempt. A word to the.wise is sufficient..
Hutchinson's Island.— A large portion of
this Island, opposite the city, is under water.
The dry culture contract, by the city authori
ties is still in existence. Unless this con
tract is carried into effect there is danger to
the health of Savannah Capt. Stearns will
he doing a great sanitary work in having
these lands drained. _____
There is a “magic” man who calls him
self the “Great Coryphaeus of Occult Art,”
opening the eyes of the Canadians. His
agent announces that his “luminous lectures
have, | ariphrastically speaking, placed per
ishable Peripneumoniae* on the plat form of
bealtli. and his unapproachable Art lias con
vulsed the cheeks of the sourest vinegar
faces iDto paroxysms of cacliinnation and
transformed the most irascible and Acetabu
liferous anti-Theophilanthropist from the
Appbelion to the Perhelion of joy and en
joyment. ” We are glad to hear it—but not
any for us—if you please.
A Thrilling Scene at a Railroad Station.
Conductor Flemming’s train on Monday
brought from the north a distinguished pas
senger, the veritable “fat woman” who is
oue ot the attractions at Barnum’s Museum
|in New York. As she weighs over GOO
! pounds, she rode in the baggage car. After
: the arrival of the train in this city, a plat
' form, carpeted so that she shouldn’t slip, was
I placed from the side door of the car, and
I her ladyship was invited to descend. But
just at this critical moment when she had
fairly stepped upon the platform, the fireman
on the engine, not knowing the situation,
began to back the engine, and —“what a fall
was there !" The gallant efforts of Mr. Flem
ing and liis two or three assistants were well
meant, but futile. If she had been a pretty
woman of the ordinary size, of course it
would have been proper*for the conductor to
receive her gracefully in his arms—but the
thought of it in this case 1 The active ex
ertions employed did not save her from fall
ing, but did prevent her from rolling under
the train, of which catastrophe she was at
one moment in imminent danger. So the
fat woman still lives.— Springfield Republican.
Mexico under the Aztecs. —The great city
of Mexico as it existed at the time of the
Spanish conquest, contained from three to
five hundred thousand inhabitants. Its ex
tent was such that one thousand persons
were daily engaged in watering and cleaning
the streets, so that, in the language of a
Spaniard, “a man could walk through them
with as little danger of soiling his feet as his
hands." An aqueduct nearly three miles in
length, with double courses of pipes, brought
supplies of fresh water from Chapurepac.
The palace of the King excelled, in the judg
ment of Cortes, any building in Spain in cost
and magnificence. Immense buildings and
grounds were devoted to collections of the
native birds and beasts of the country—the
zoological gardens of the city; while an
equal space was appropriated to a botanical
collection whose medicinal virtues were
studied by the Aztecs. In the great market
places were met together traders from all
parts of the empire, with the products and
manufactures peculiar to their countries—
goldsmiths, potters, jewellers, painters, stone
cutters, hunters, fishermen, fruiterers, and
florists. Piles of cotton bales or of manu
factured goods, furs, or leather garments,
met the sight. In the booths around, the
barber was plying his vocation, or the
apothecary dispensing his drugs ; w r hile even
the bookseller was to be lound selling blank
books for the liieroglyphical picture-writing.
Perfect order reigned throughout the vast
assembly, numbering often forty thousand
persons. Officers patrolled the squares,
whose business it was to keep the peace, to
colieet the duties imposed on the articles
sold, and to see that no false measures or
frauds of any kinds were used. A court of
twelve judges sat in the square to administer
justice to all offendars. •
Restaurant Life in Richmond.— This is
the notice that strikes the eye of a hungry
man upon his entry into some of the seconcf
class eating saloons of Richmond : “Gentle
men will please pay before eating.” This is
a wotul change irom old times, when gen
tlemen whether in broadcloth or homespun,
were invited into these establishments, where
entertainment is offered lor man and beast,
and the best that t he larder could produce
was set before them without the question as
to whether bis appetite was likely to get the
better of his purse. ‘ ‘Pay belore you eat"
argues a sad decline in the estimation of
men's morals and honesty, and* is one of the
striking illustrations of the changes that the
war lias worked —Wichmond Examiner, Feb. 25.
Peculiarities ok Uganda —The following
is a pleasant specimen of a merry rollicking
young African kiug, of the native pattern,
pure and simple:
There is little druukenness among the
people. The nills are such a mass of tall
reeds and grasses that cattle cannot pene
trate them. Pleasant walks are cut through
them, and kept from being grown over by
the constant transit of slave hunting parties.
Katoongee returned from one of those dur
ing my stay at Uganda. He had captured
130 women, chiefly old, aud only fit for
weeding in the fields. Some few, fit for
wives, he set apart to be given away to men
thought deserving, or whose services were
to be rewarded. Each woman of this class
is worth three cows. An instance occurrt and
of the king giving a single slave to one of
Ins officers for a service performed; the man
was bold enough to ask for a second, when
he was ordered to be cut to pieces, which
was done with the usual red. knife. His j
limbs were carried away openly, while his j
trunk was wrapped up in a doth. One day !
I bad the curiosity to follow a woman who
was being led by a boy to be killed. She i
carried a small koe, balanced upon her head.
After traveling half a mile they turned down
the executioner’s garden. Close by, a lazy,
yellow-beaked vulture, the cannibal of
Uganda, sat perched on the stump ot' a brok
en tree : others hovered high overhead snif
fing- the repast below. The circumstantial
evidence was enough for me, and I turned
back. — Or. Grant.
The Average Numreu oe Deserters—
from the rebel army for the month of Febru
ry was HO per day, or 3,920 for one month !
These men came into our lines and say, “We
aie allowed one ounce of pork and a half
pint of meal per day as ration. ’

This invention consists of duplex (or two) elliptic

flexible, elastic and durable spring ever used. They
seldom bend or break and consequently preserve their
perfect and beautiful shape twice as long as any other
