THK C 000 SEWS OF COMING PEACE*
The good news which we were able to lay
before our readers yesterday morning has
had an electrifying effect on every class.
Proof sheets of the official orders were kind
ly furnished, under proper permission, from
the Department printing office, to one of our
Hilton Head correspondents, at midnight,
in advance of their regular issue, and just in
season to ba telegraphed to the morning
HanaD. It is very creditable to the opera
tors of the U. S. Military Telegraph that tot
an error occurred, iu sending the compli
cated despatches, except one or two slight
variations in punctuation, which did not
affect the sense. 4
Wc take pride in having been the first to
lay before the people of Savannah, and of
other places iu the Department of the South,
the full and authentic details of the gratify
ing intelligence. It is natural to infer that
developments of Peace will now soon fol
low the great events of the North Carolina
pud Virginia campaigns. As fast as any in
formation in regard to the establishment of
peaceful measures is proper for publication,
we shall give it to our readers.
- -ACj.ea.n- City.— Under the able supervision
of the Street Commissioner, the city has put
ou a much cleaner face than for a long time
before. The liberal distribution of lime has
douc much to correct noxious effluvia which
Were poisoning the air from many illy cared
for spots. Stiil there are some who have not
ever yet taken advantage of the offer to gra
tuitously furnish disinlectants on application
to the proper department; and there ere still a
few places to be met with which show con
tinued neglect. It may be well for persms
responsible for this state of facts to remember
that the Street luspector has power to sum
marily punish lor neglect of his instructions,
and they may be ccitain that he will not per
mit the health of the city to be imperiled
by the negligence of a few careless or reek
ltss individuals. The coming hot weather
requires the greatest cleanliness on the part
of every one.
, General Sulrman at the Theatre.— At
the Tueatre last evening a large audience
assembled, many to witness the performance
which was for the Benefit of Mr. Weir, and
many others doubtless attracted by the hope
of seeipg Gen. Sherman, who was expected
to be there.
£ Public expectation wa9 not disappointed.
At the end of the second act of the play
(“Evadue ”) the Geueral entered the bouse
accompanied by but a single lriend. The
audiedbe at once rose and spontaneously
greeted the veteran with cheer after cheer,
the applause continuing until after he had
traversed the whole length of the Theatre
and reached his private box.
At the cncl of the first play he left the house,
when a similar scene took place, the audi
ence rising and cheering in the most enthu
siastic manner.
The hearty reception of the hero shows in
what estimation he is held by the citizens of
Savannah.
We propose to uotice the performance of
the play more particularly in our Evening
Edition.
Return of Goqd Fee use*.—We publish
this morning a testimonial from the pTisiners
of war at the Post Hospital to the Surgeons
in charge, containing warm expressions of
gratitude unfl kind feeling. This is only one
Instance of what has frequently occurred
during the past three weeks. The instal
ments of paroled prisoners from the Army of
Northern Virginia have, without exception,
published in our columns, expressions of their
sense of obligation, to the officers iu whose
care they have arrived. This is, of course,
due to the considerate treatment which they
lave received at ihe bands of the Federal of.
ficers; but it not the less marks the era of a
return of good feeling between the citizens
of a common country, whom an unnatural
war has so long estranged.
The further disbandment of the Rebel
ttmies, and the breaking down of the almost
unlimited despotism of the ring of rebel
leaders, will undoubtedly witness a similar
growth of friendly sentiment among the
people throughout the' Southern States. For
the factitious eumity which the combined
efforts ot unscrupulous leaders and a servile
Sress have beeu able to create, must iuevita
ly be dispelled by the healthful light ami
and air of truth which will now pour in
upon the redeemed and liberated South.
The L \li£ ;*ident and His Assassin.—
The personal relations existing before the
muTfler, between Booth and the President,
augment the horror of the occurrence. Mr
Lincoln saw Booth play more than once*
and particularly admired him. He y nC e ap
plauued him rapturously, and with all the
gfnial heartiness for which he was distin
§oisked. Booth, when told of the President s
ehght, said to his informant that he would
rather have the applause of a negro. The
President had never spoken with Booth but
wished to make his acquaintance, and ’said
so. Booth evaded the interview, yet he
knew Mr. Lincoln perfectly so far as his
whereabouts and appearance were concern
ed, but never appreciated the President's
good nature and personal beuevolence—

The Teuton or German race, in whatever
clime or country they may be, for by emi
gration they are found in ali parts of tin

The celebration of the First of May, other
wise known as St. Tammany s Day, has for
years been a custom in the “ Ancient City o;
Oglethorpe.” The German Turnverein of
Savannah, according to their time-honored
usage, revived yesterday this celebration.—
The reporter for the Herald gathered the
following particulars:
The Savannah Turnverein, for their festival
of the first day of May, 1805, selected the
farm of Mr. A. L. Bradley, known as “Vale
Koyai Place."
The grounds are situated east of the Savan
nah and Ogeecheo Canal, and the property
was many years since known as the “ Stiles’
Oaks.” Mr. Frank Schultz made ample pre
paration of ali convivial requisites.
Mr. Nicholas Marin, leader of exercises,
assisted by the members of the Association
and the invited guests, gave a fine exhibition
of gymnastics.
A celebration by Turners is never complete
without singing; under the leadership oi
Mr. 11. L. Schreiner, several very appropri
ate pieces of music were sung.
The Fencing and Broad Sword Exercise
by Major Coarad Blateu and Mr. Marin,
formed an attractive feature of the day.
A fine band of musicians, composed of
Jacoli, Hettrich, Rucberta and Fogle, with
assistants, discoursed music for the singing,
dancing and waltzing.
We noticed among the invited guests pres
ent, who received pleasant greetings from
the officers of the Savannah Turnverein and
the ladies, Lt.-Coi. York, Capt. Dike. Lt.-
Col. Neafie, Capt. Stearns, Judge Benedict,
Lt. Hancock, and Havens that good-hearted
and obliging Telegraph Operator.

Wo auuex the address of the Vice Presi

12ru anniversary of tuk savannah turn
VKREIN, Ist OF MAY, 1865.
“ Brother I'urners and Friends of the Association:
We are assembled here to-day to celebrate
the 12th Anniversary of our Society, and we
deem it necessary at present to give a short
review of its origin, aim, tendency, &c.
All of my elder German friends aud
brothers of the Association will most vividly
remember tjie time, wheu old “Father
John," as he was called, published in news
papers of Germany nearly 30 years ago, his
call to the young men to rise and shake off ail
carelessness and egotism, to form societies
lor mutual improvement, socially, intellec
tually and physically, and thereby fit them
selves for the proper performance of the du
ties of the different stations in life, to ’ which
they severally might be called.
Then. Turner Societies sprang up in every
city, aud even in nearly every town large
or small; these different associations formed
afterwards into one great Brotherhood by
electing aud sending Representatives to the
General Diet, constituted as the General Su
pervisor of the whole.
According to this example set, the Ger
mans in the country formed societies, when
ever a sufficient number could be gathered
together, that were spirited enough to de
vote a part of their time to the improvement
of their own intellect and strength, as well
as that of their fellow members.
Actuated by such a desire,a small number
of men, of whom Mr. Geo. Stein is the
ouly one now in Savannah, assembled ou
the Gth of March, 1852, in the Planters Hotel,
and constituted themselves a society under
the name of TAe Savannah Turnvirtin,"
and elected their officers.
To these lew public spirited men are we,
their successors, indebted for the existeuce
of this society.
The number of its members increased
gradually until the year 1851, when Yellow
Fever fclaimed some as victims and
drove others out ol the city to dif
ferent parts of the country and thereby
endangered the very existence of the
Association; the Spriug of 1855, though found
•it nearly as stroug as ever.
During that summer the society was ac
cepted as a part of the General Brotherhood
of the United States of America.
.In IBsß,tbe doctrine of Universal Freedom,
without distinction, was promulgated as u
vital part of the Qeneral Diet of the Order,
and in view of this doctime being in direct
conflict with the then existing laws Os the
different States of the South, the society of
Savannah, as well as those of other Southern
cities, were necessarily compelled to with*
draw.
From that time the Association languished
and kept barely alive during the last four
years; but now I take the liberty to predict,
that it will grow to such an extent as never
before was even anticipated, and I hope each
member wilt do his beat to bring it to that
condition, and help to keep it there.
We made application for reinstate
ment mto the General Brotherhood of the
United Statei; were accepted, and sent a
delegate to the General Convention held at
Waihington, D. C, on the 3d of April last,
and Bubse-jnefit days,who, up to this day ( has
not returned; but Ido not think that heir e
forth there will be anything iu the way of our
working harmoniously together, since Presi
dent “Lincoln,” by his proclimation, remov
ed the only obstacle that ever was iu the way,
and we ought, therefore, to forever revere
the - memory of this “Martyr President," who
was so foully aßsa«sinatedj; and to hold up to
perpetual execration the perpetrators of that
deed.
We will now proceed with some of the ex
ercises of our institution."
The previous celebrations of the First of
May in Savanuah will ever be remembered.
Annually from her daughters one was select
ed and crowned the Queen of May; she was
chosen from the fairest of the fair of “our
Ancient City," and was attended by gallant
ladies and gentlemen, who paid homage,—
There were also flue parades of the military,
and it has ever been a gala day.
Our-German friends are fond of good cheer
and good Government and their devotion to
their Lager and to the Union have ever been
worihy of emulation.
