The Savannah Daily Herald. SATURDAY. APRIL t* 1565-. I ltO’l Oiß EVI-\L\G EDITION OF YESTERDAY. I’UOM CIIARLESTOJi. Dateii of the 30th. Memorial to the Loyal People of Somi Carolina —lt is an established fact, that a large number of our soldiers died from ex posure and want, and were buried by hun dreds in whnt is called the Race Course, in the City of Charleston. It therefore behooves us as loyal people that a lilting testimonial be made to the memory of these brave men; who died or were brutally murdered by being exposed without sufficient clothing or proper food, and with no other cover than the broad can opy of heaven, and then buried like dogs with nothing to mark their last resting place or to protect their remains. A Committee has been formed to raise funds to erect a suitable monument and j fence to protect it, in honor of these brave j soldiers who died in defence of their coun- j try : and we do hereby call upon every loyal I man, woman and child in the State o: South j Carolina to aid us in the work, and respect- ; fully ask ministers and their congregations I to iorm committees to raise funds. Tue con tribution has been limited to ten cents each, so that it will give every one the privilege and debar none from aiding this noble wotk. South Carolina alone should do the work and raise ten thousand dollars to complete it, and show the world that all ht-r children have not degenerated or forgotten the duty ther owe to tie defenders of our starry flag. All communications sLoald he addressed to the Secretary of the Committee, at Charles ston, S. C. By order of the Committee. Charles Paxso.v, Secretary. committee. James Reppath. Maiden, Mass.

The Gas Company. —Some time since, in speaking of the high price? then ruling the city, we took occasion to allude to the charge, of 'slo per thousand feet made by the Gas Company. Siuce then we learn the price has been reduced to SB, and a further reduction may be looked for as soon as the circum stances of the company will admit. The company have had many difficulties to con tend with,especially from the loss and break age of tubes by the shells and the consequent nightly loss of gas. They have agreed to light the city lamps at the rate of §3 30 per thousand feet, barely cost price of the gas. A letter from the Dalmncs, dated Nassau on the 13th of .March, furnishes a very gloomy picture of the condition of the colony since the breaking up of the unhealthy Anglo-re bel trade generated there during the rebel lion, by the fall of Wilmington and Charles ton. Hundreds of seataring men and labor ers were out of employment, and the store keepers were bankrupting under the weight of heavy stocks for which they bad no cus tomers. The British Custom House officers who were lately kept so busy in handing fradulent clearances to tho blockade runners and making jokes ou the trouble of the Union, were pow without employment, and may be discharged. Numbers of the steamboat hands were quite destitute- A man named Lock, in the rebel service, who captured the British schooner “Hanover,” when in command of the armed schooner ‘Retribution, ’ in 1 863, at Long Cay, was in prison at Nassau for a breach of the British neutrality laws.—- Charleston Courier. Messrs. Scott and Hyman's Benefit To morrow Evening.— The public will thank us for calling attention to the benefit of those excellent actors, Messrs. Scott and Ityman, to take place to-morrow (Saturday) evening,' at the Savannah Theatre. The favorite play of William Tell will be produced, with Mr. Thomas Weir as William Tell, Miss Maude St. Leon as Albert, and Mr. Hyman as Ges ler—a powerful cast: Mr. Scott will sing the Marseillaise in character, a performance which has been received night after night during the past week with the most enthu siastic applause. Mr. Scott's dress for the Marsellaise is truly magnificent, and the ac tion with which he accompanies it is of the highest order of dramatic art, and impressive in the extreme. An excellent farce by the dramatic compa ny is also included in the bill. Benevolent Enterprise.—A Fair in aid of the colored soldiers in the hospitals, is now being held at Marshall Hall, on Brough ton st., opposite St. Andrews Hall. An op portunity is here offered to purchase every variety of useful and ornamental articles, and at the same time to assist a noble char ity. The fair is to continue to the end of the week, and it is to lie hoped all will attend and reward liberally the benevolent efforts of the managers. Savannah Market. —The schedule adopted for the price of food sold in the market, falls very heavy on those who deal in sturgeon.— At five cents per pound, the schedule rate, there is but a limited chance for the dealer to clear himself. Were the schedule rate for sturgeon applied to the miserable article now sold for beef in the market, it would have a great tendency to provide a little food for the poor animal before he is brought to the slaughter. Deserter Arrested.— This morning Daniel Jewett, a deserter from the 14th New Hamp shire Regiment, was arrested on board sclir. E. R. Bennett, for Hilton Head. Jewett when arrested, was quite a used up man, hav’mg a black “peeper” and having just been robbed of #9O in greenbacks. Jewett is locked up for trial. Second Provost Court.— This morning a few unimportant rent cases were disposed of by Judge Walton. Generosity.— The other day the shipping 1 clerks at Hilton Head found an envelope on 1 one of their desks, which, on examination, proved to contain $1,350. It had no super scription, and had been left in a very careless manner, among old envelopes and waste paper. Mr. O’Regan, one of the clerks, vr o first discovered it, delivered It to Oupt. George 0. Baker, in charge of the officer, who made every effort to find the owner. The latter finally arrived, and pfoved to be a merchant who tad been kindly allowed the use of a desk, to the inconvenience of the proprietor, for the purpose of writing a letter. He rather imperatively demanded the delivery of the mo ney, and ou its being promptly handed over, remarked that he was very much obliged, and rushed off. Capt. Baker, who wouldn’t for the world do a mean thing, or accept re muneration for discharging his duty, with a dryness which is characteristic of him, re plied that he was quite welcome, aud offered to pay interest on the money for the time ho had had it in his possession. One of our cor respondents, who was present, considers the occurrence worthy of an item. Mule and Cart Stolen. —This morning while a white woman who had brought pro duce to market was selling the same, her mule and cart were stolen. At the market there is daily assembled a lot of worthless negro and white thieves, who have become a crying nuisance. The stealing of mules, horses and of produce exposed for sale, is becoming too frequent, hnd it should be im mediately stopped. Rates of Drainage.— There should im mediately be established rates of drayage. Many complaints are heard of the charges made by draymen and wagoners, and all would feel grateful to see published and en forced fates not of an extortionate character. Col. Neafie enu undoubtedly have this abuse rectified, aud it is a matter ol immediate im portance. First Provost Court.— But little busi ness was offered this morning, anrl the fol lowing is a transcript of the docket: —W. H. Beale, Thomas and Martha Cballfincli, aud 11. D. Essau were allowed to take the oath of allegiance; 11. F. Willirk, jr., was allowed to collect the rents ou his real estate; James Wallis $25 a year ground rent. Ice Cream. —For over four years this de lightful declicacy has not tickled the palate of many Savannahans. The article is now ex posed for sale at the market. Several colored citizens are fitting up their wagons for the business, and the soloon3 in various portions of the city are getting ready for the run on “frigicls” during the coming season. Iced lemonade, sherbet aud mead will once again be articles of sale. Istervibw Between Kilpatrick and Wheeler.— Among the many incidents ot Sherman's march through South Carolina, was the following, which transpired ou the 27th uit.:— On that day, owing to the many reports concerning the capture and murder of men belonging to bis command, General Kilpat rick arranged- for an interview with General Wheeler tit Lancaster, in regard to an order from General Sherman, that prisoners in our possession should be shot in retaliation for the murder of our men by Wheeler. This answered a double purpose : first, giving an opportunity for a more perfect understanding relative to the alleged atrocities; second, causiug the enemy to believe our point of attack to be Charleston. * The interview was very pleasing, consid ering the circumstances, and had the de sired effect. Nothing was known of the murders by General Wheeler, and lie posi tively asserted tfcit no such thing had been committed by any organization of his com mand, and, furthermore, would endeavor to learn if tiiere were any truth in it. Narrow Escape of Queen Victora.— The j other day, says the London Court Journal, j the Queen had a miraculous escape from | being crushed to death by the falling of a i tree in the Home Park. Iltr Majesty was ; taking an ailing on her favorite little Scotch [ pony, and proceeding through the tall avenue ot elms at Windsor known as Queen i Elizabeth’s ride, the pony being led by a i gillie, when, fortunately the servant observed ! one of the large trees falling immediately I over her Majesty. The groom called out loudly, and her Majesty, made aware of the danger by this timely alarm, escaped being crushed beneath the tree by a few yards only.
