The Savannah Daily Herald. SATURDAY. APRIL *». 1 865, FROM OUR EVENING EDITION . OF YESTERDAY^^^^ First Provost Court.— There was con siderable business this forenoon brought un .der the consideration of Judge Parsons. The case of J. W. Shuman, vs. Green, James and Albert (colored) charged with stealing 1C head of cattle, and bringing them inside the lines and selling them, was brought up this morning.

Savannah Theatrk. —A good house was present at the third representation of “The Ticket-of-Leave-Man” last evening, which, as before, was admirably performed. To night the beautiful “Camille, which produc ed such a sensation a few weeks since, will be reviewed, with Mr. Daveuport as Armaud and Florence La Fond as Camille. Sweatnam's Varieties. —The performan ces at this popular place of amusement are still well attended. An excellent bill of bur lesque, minstrelsy and dancing, is presented ench evening. _____ Forsyth Place.— This beautiful resort for pleasure receives more than careful attention from its keeper, Mr. WaUh. Upon his making application to Captain Stearns, our worthy street commissioner, Mr. Walsh was furnished with 4500 loads of manure whicn has been spread upon the grounds. In some instances two layers were spread and the whole of the grounds have been planted with selected trass seed. After a few heavy showers of rain Forsyth Place will be clad with beautiful green grass. Distilleries. —The accursed trade of dis tilling in this city the very vilest of poisons and selling as liquor, is fast receiv ing its finishing blows. The police are deter mined to break up all such establishments and they have met with great success thus, fer. A visit to the office of the Chief of Po lice where the machines used for worming out the blue poison may be seen, will amply repay the curious. Two Stills instead of One. —The Police yesterday captured a copper still in the wes tern part of the city. The person on whose premises it was found, requested that it should not be taken out in the day time, as it would be an injury to his premises, and promised that in the evening it should be brought to the Chiefs Headquarters. In the evening the still wus brought according to agreement, but instead of being copper, it was found to be of tin, on examination this morning. The copper still will have to be forthcoming to-day, or the parties will be in volved in much trouble. Travf.l to tuk Nortu. —The steamer U. S. Grant; Capt. Dobbs, conveyed to Hilton Head to take the steamship Fulton for New persons. The tide of flteamer will take out large numbers from Savannah. Recruiting Amoso Veterans. —From a private letter received in this city, we learn : that a regiment, composed of none but vete rans, is being recruited at Indiauapolis, Ind., with good suecess, The recruiting officers are obtaining all the men they want. The regiment when full will be attached to Han cock’s veteran corps. English Guns Taken. —During the pursuit of Lee after liis evacuation of Richmond, five guns of the Armstrong pattern were taken, said to have been a present from tbe English Government to the Confederacy. The guns arc quife new, never having been used, and are beautiful specimens of manufacture. Robbeby.—On Wednesday ' night last, a private residence was entered by a robber. An alarm having been given two of the police repaired to the spot, but the rogue succeeded in making his escape. Lee’s Successor.— The surrender of Gen. Lee leaves the South without an officer in the position of commander-in-chief. Se niority will, we believe, not decide on his successor, fop the office is not subject to the routine of military usage. An Executive appointment, made in Lee’s case, under special authority of Congress, the • posi tion of commander-in-chief, if held vacated by Lee's surrender, can be refilled but by the appointment of Mr. Davis. Seniority would give it to General Johnston. At the Tribunal of Correctional Police, on the 25t.h March,M. Rogeard was found guilty of having adversely criticised, in a pamphlet, the Emperor’s “Hutory of Julius Ciesar.” He was sentenced to pay a fine of 5001. and to be imprisoned for five years. THE EIGHTEENTH GEORGIA BATTALION. Official List Os it* Caaualtie* in the Battle* About Richmond. The Eighteenth Georgia Battalion, in Ewell’s Corps of the Confederate Army, was mostly raised i* this city, and accordingly news from it is of especial interest to the resi dents. We are informed that the command has been paroled, and those able to travel may be expected home at an early day. Nearly every member has friends and ac quaintances here, if not relatives.

Heading Off a Lawyer. —Rufus Choate, iq an important marine aasault-and-battery at-sea, had Dick Barton, chief mate of tbe clipper-ship Challenge, on the stand, and badgered him so for about an hour, that at last Dick got his salt water up, and hauled by the wind to bring the keen Boston lawyer under his batteries. At the beginning of his testimony, Dick bad said that the night was “dark as the devil, and raining like seven bells.” Suddenly Mr. Choate asked him, “Was there a moon that nigh ?”• “Yes, sir." “Ah, yes/ A moou—” “Yes, a full moon." “Did you see it ?" “Not a mite.” “Then how do you know there was a moon?” “Nautical almanac said so, and I’ll believe that sooner’n any lawyer’n in this world.” “What was the principal luminary that night, sir?” “ Binnacle lamp aboard the Challenge. ” “Ah, you are growing sharp, Mr. Barton.” “What in blazes have you been grinding me this hour for—to make me dull?" “Be civil, sir. And now tell me what latitude and longitude yon crossed the Equator in ?” “Sbo! You're joking,” “No, sir! lam in earnest, and 1 desire you to answer me.” “I shan’t.” “Ah. you refuse, do 3 r ou?" “Yes—l can’t.” “Indeed! You are chief mate of a clipper ship, and unable to answer so simple a question?” “Yes, it is the | simplest question I ever had asked me. Why, I I thought every fool of a lawyer knew there i ain’t no latitude to the Equator.” That shot i floored Rufus Choate. Poor Brigham Youne has lost one of hi/ wives. She was the handsomest of all ex j eppt tlx. But Brigham isn’t widowed mu f / by the loss. f Business in Charleston. —A letter from Charleston to the Providence Journal says : Mercantile business is increasing with a ra pidity hardly to be surpassed in the fast growing cities of the West, where mushroom-. like a hamlet or village springs up in a sin gle night, aud a large town is the growth ot a single week. Army sutlers and resident merchants are every day opening stores and a ready maiket lor their goods, even at the present high prices. The two grand hindrances to progress in trade are a scarcity of money and the continuation of the blockade. liaise the blockade and cause the current of money to set in this direction, and a man of capital can accumulate a res pectable fortune in six months or a year.
