The Savannah Daily Herald. WEDNESDAY. APRIL I* Bs, FKO.II OL B EVE.\I\G EDITION OF YESTERDAY. Gcebrilla Warfare is still waged in Vir ginia. within an astonishingly small distance from the Capital of the United States. Com mandant F. A. Parker, of the Potomac Flo tilla, lms just reported that on the 15th of March the United States steamer Morse en gaged ft rebel light battery on the Rappa hannock, near Fort Laing, and, after an en gagement of two hours, succeeded in driving it away. The Morse was struck several times, but suffered no material damage. Official information has also reached the Navy Department, announcing that the steamer Harriet DeFord was captured at Fairhaven, on the Chesapeake Bay, thirty miles below Annapolis, on the night of April sth, by a rebel party numbering twenty seven, and headed by Capt. Fitzbugh. After the steamer was captured she was put in chase of a propeller towing government barges down the bay. No advices of the chase had a9 yet reached the Department.— The Harriet DeFord is a one-masted pro peller. Guddkn & Co.—We beg to call atten tion to the advertisement of this enterprising firm who have their fine store on the corner of Bay and Barnard streets. They have jU9t brought here a large 9tock of Kerosene Oil, safely put in convenient sized cans, which they offer to the pulic at prices so re markably low, that the article may indeed be said almost to be “given away." Second Provost Court. —lntelligence was received in this city last evening by tele graph from Port Royal, that Capt. Walton, Judge of the Second Provost Court, was at the Port Royal House in an improving state of health. He will not be able to return to Savannah under two or three days, and the Court consequently stands adjourned until further notice. Good News for Savannah—No more Dark Streets.— The Savannah Gas Light Company received yesterday 9 iron retorts, each weigh ing 2,164 lbs., 101 packages oi glass and fire brick, 3 crates metres, 3 bbls. cement. This complete stock will place the works in working order, and to have the city lighted in a short time. AMUSEMENTS. The Ticket-of-LeAve Man.— This famous and truly beautiful drama was produced last evening at the Savannah Theatre with an un exampled degree of success. The business of the piece is singularly well adapted to the resources of this theatre, and the various characters of the dramatis person® find ex cellent representatives in the different mem bers of the company.' “Bob Brierly"—the honest and simp'e-he; r .edLancash r • lad who comes to the city to see life, chooses bad companions, becomes their scapegoat, is thrown into jail and afterwards pardoned out with a Ticket-of-Leave, but is followed and persecuted by his old companions until he triumphs over them by a bold and success ful stratagem—was admirably personated by Miss Florence La Fond. The simple Lan cashire ntau, with his broad dialect and unef fected manliness ol demeanor, was rendered by Miss La Fond in an affecting manner, and retained the sympathies of the audience throughout the varying scenes of happiness and trial, to the triumphant denouement. Mr. Davenport as “James Dalton" (the Tiger), was exceedingly effective, and his marvellous disguise in the counting-room scene elicited unfeigned ad miration. “ Melter Moss," Uie old Jew, was most admirably done by Mr. Herndon; and Mrs. Berrell and Miss Prestige, as Mrs. and Sara Willoughby respectively, were capital— never better. May Edwards was pleasingly rendered by Misb St. Leon, and left nothing to be desired for the completeness of the cast. # The attention of the unusually large house waa closely held throughout thi9 absorbing and affecting drama,and the denouement was received with enthusiastic and long-con tinued applause, mingled with cheers. Correction. —By an unfortunate mistake the name of Capt. Berry, of the Blackstone, waa printed “R. H.” instead of “W. C.” as it should have been, in the card of passen gers upon the late excursion, published yes terday. The name of the worthy steward, Mr. Calanan, was likewise mispelled. More Lawlessness.— Recently a force ofwo men, fourteen strong, armed with guns, psi tols, knives and tougues,made a descent on a mill about four miles from LaFayette. Ala., and relieved the establishment of a lot of flour. We regret much to see these acts of law lessness. They are but stepping stones to darker deeds of outrage and crime. Eveiy good citizen should do all in his power to prevent them by endeavoring to remove the causes. To those who have a plenty we say. give cheerfully and liberally of your abun dance to the poor By. so doing you will prevent much suffering; will prevent much wrong doing by alleviating the hunger and want'which forces the suffering to commit crime. While doing what we can to prevent the devastation of our foe, let us conduct mutters at home in such a way that anarchy will never reign supreme in our midst,- Auguita Chronicle and Sentinel. Smuggling at Fernandina. —A Femandina correspondent of the Port Royal New’ South tells a spicy story of a April Fool Day joke perpetrated upon the Collector of that Port. It appears that a small schooner has ju9t arrived at Femandina bringing a gentleman named Goodrich, who had been passing the winter at Nassau for his health, with his fam ily. Mr. Goodrich, who i9 a gentleman of means and influence, and of agreeable man ners, and moreover who is accompanied by a very interesting family, was welcomed in Fer nandina society and soon made many warm friends, among whom w r as the w’orthy Collec tor himself. The dismay and sorrow of the Collector may easily be imagined upon his being informed by several trustworthy wit nesses, that a pipe of whiskey had been seen in the hold*of the schooneifand had afterwards been brought ashore without the knowledge of the Custom House officers. The stern dictates of duty were in conflict with the considerations of friendship. Did the Col lector hesitate as to which should prevail in his breast? Not for a moment. The Col lector rose superior to the Frieud. An ex amination was ordered at the Provost Mar shal’s office. But we will let the correspon dent proceed in his own words : Mr. Goodrich wished counsel, but was re fused in this preliminary examination. Mr. Welles testified that Mr. Goodrich bad, in a season of friendly confidence, exhibited to him at his house, a pipe of whiskey, which he admitted having brought on shore from the schooner after darkand without the know ledge of the Collector of the Customs, the said pipe of whiskey being ignored in the vessel’s manifest; and that Goodrich further disclosed that he had two more pipes in the house, that would be brought into requisi tion when this was exhausted. Mr. Vanderbilt corroborated the testimony of Mr. Welles in every particular. At this point in the proceedings, the Col lector, by the advice of Capt. Robinson, des patched a messenger to Fort Clinch, with a demand on the Commandant for a force suf fleent to seize and detain the vessel in the name and for the benefit of the Treasufy Department. Mr. Goodrich admitted that he had no wit nesses to examine and very little to say in his defence, but he would like to interrogate the witnesses who had testified against him. Permission being granted, the following con versation ensued: Mr. Goodrich —Do you swear positively, Mr. Welles, that you saw the pipe of whis dey? Mr. Welles —l do, solemnly* Collector — That’s conclusive—l don’t think it worth while to waste more time; I’ve de cided to seize the vessel. Mr. Goodrich —l insist on my rights. lam an American citizen. Mr. Vanderbilt do you swear to the same statements ? Mr. Vanderbilt —l certainly do sir. Collector —(impatiently)—What more is needed? What’s the use of wasting the val uable time of the Provost Marshal ? Mr. Goodrich —l still insist, gentlemen.— When you saw me with that pipe of whiskey what was I doing with it. Witnesses—You shook it before us, to show what was in it. You shook it with a rinsiDg motion as if you were clearing it out. Collector —The case is settled, sir. Mr. Goodrich —l claim the Provost Mar shal’s protection; till I have finished this cross-examination. Provost Marshal — You can proceed, sir. Mr. Goodrich —Gentlemen do you know a pipe of whiskey when you see it ? Witnesses — We cto, most assuredly. Mr. Goodrich — Were you permitted to satisfy yourselves that the pipe contained whiskey ? Witnesses —We were. Collector—l think, Mr. Provost Marshal, this case is a clear one. Mr. Goodrich —l’ll make it clearer, sir. Gentlemen would you recognize that pipe of whiskey if you saw it again, so as to be able to swear to it ? Witness —We should. Mr. Goodrich —(taking an old Briar Wood from his pocket)—Was that the pipe ? Witnesses —(emphatically)—that’s the iden tical pipe! Collector — (with very long face and very large eyes)—What do you gay? Witnesses —That’s the pipe that Mr. Good rich had whiskey in. Collector— (rushing out of the office) —Go to . The rest of the seutence was lost iu the distance, but I could dimly see a very small portion of a horizontal coat-tail pass a comer, followed by several gentlemen in single file, and, when last seen, the Collector was paying the keeper of the candy store for a great many bottles of root beer. MORAL. Officers who are impelled to sacrifice friends to duty by a desire tor prize money, should beware of trusting to information lodged between the last day of March and the 2d of April. The Reassembling or the Virginia Leg islator*. —The proposition of President Lincoln, as stated In the Whig, to reassemble the Virginia Legislature at Richmond, for the purpose of authorizing a convention to take back the State into the bonds of the Union, interferes with the government claim ing to represent that State, with Pisrpont as Governor, with its capital at Alexandria. The Legislature at the latter place, several months ago, having received from the Sec retary of State a certified copy of the pro posed Constitutional Amendment to abolish slavery, ratified the same by a nearly unani mous vote; and among other acts conferred a franchise for constructing a railroad from Washington to Frederickaburgh. The Pier pont Government contemplate an early re moval to Richmond f but the event tq which reference is above made, does not entourage the consummation of that design. The Swiss Republicans. —A lady who re sides in this city had a letter recently from her mother, living in the city of Geneva, Switzerland, which states that regularly, in the church she attends, prayers are made every Sunday for the success of the North in its struggle against a wicked rebellion, for tbe continued health of President Lincoln, and the speedy extinction of every vestige of slavery from the great Americau republic.— This is a beautiful and touching incident, showing how the hearts of the honest lovers of liberty everywhere go with us, while the defenders of privileges, inequality and inhu manity carry their sympathies to tbe other Side.—- Evening Pott. The Prince of Wales “Running wid a Mersheen."— A few nights since a large fire broke out in Leicester square and it was dis covered soon after that the Prince of Wales with the Duke of Cambridge, the Duke of Southerland and other distinguished persons were on the spot. This occasioned the great est enthusiasm in the crowd, and the next morning all the newspapers came out with leaders lauding his royal highues9’s anxiety for the welfare of the people, praising the “cool courage with which he exposed him self to witness the fire from every accessible ‘post of vantage.’ and otherwise offering the sw’eet incense of flattery to the royal nostrils which had voluntarily inhaled the loathe some effluvia streaming from the burning rags and bricks of that most plebeiad neighbor hood. But there were people who were not duped by the royal youth’s display of “cour age.” They knew it was not the first fire the Prince had enjoyed in disguise. The Duke of Sutherland has a hobby, which is strange to say, a fire engine. He often passes the night in a suit of rooms elegantly fitted up, which adjoin the engine house, and he never misses an opportunity of attending a fire. On such occasions he Ls accompanied by his personal friends, and often by the Prince of Wales; they’ are disguised as firemen, and pass unknown in the crowd enjoying the fun and frolic of the thing for its novelty. A new sensation is cheap at any price to an English nobleman, and the Prince will not thank the officious reporters who have ex posed one of his private amusements to the criticism of the public, especially as certain journals are indignant that he should have been permUted to risk his precious life “in thus seeking information and instruction which shall hereafter benefit bis subjects.— Co/\ Boston Sat.
