Newspaper Page TextThe Savannah Daily Herald. MONDAY. MAY 8, 1865. fbom oub evening edition, OF SATURDAY. <Tw^rrrrrp^,-v-:. - ~ J SO SUNDAY PAPER- We shall issue no regular edition of the Herald to-morrow. We need occasional rest, and so do all our employes. The labor of issniug two editions per day is unremitting, ad immunity from it for one day in the week is demanded by a regard for health, as weii as respect for the customs of Christ ian count ties. Should any important news arrive, we shall issue an Extra, for the l_foi maticu and gratification of the public; but v e do not anticipate anything of sufficient Importance for that. We design this arrange ment as a permanent one. MEETING OF THE CITIZENS OF CHATHAM COUNTY. The paper recommending a meeting of the citizens of Chatham County “for the pur pose of devising some practicable mode of ascertaining fcie views of the people as to the speediest plan of restoring the State to her original condition lu the llniou, and to provide for the assembling a convention of the whole people of Georgia, at some suita ble lime and place for that purpose,” will be left at the office of Messrs. L. C. Norvell & Cos., coruer of Bull and Bay streets, from 9 to 4 o’clock this day' for the signatures of citizens. Arrivals of Union and Confldekatk Pris oners of War.— Within the past two days shout five huudred paroled Union and Con federate soldiers have returned to Savannah* many of the Confederates belong to Savan nah, and will stop here, and the Union sol diers are eu route for their homes. This morning several officers of Johnstou’a Army arrived in Savannah by laud, from Augusta. Lieut. Clift King, Savannah; Lieut. Kobt. Lewis, Savannah ; Major Arthur Schoff, Ist Battalion Ga., Sharpshooters, Savannah Ga., Mr. Frank O Driscoll, Savannah. There also arrived by an open boat from Augusta this morning, the following 1 named officers of the Confederate Navy, H. G. Laud, Asst. Surgeon ; J. W. McCavrick, Master ; W. A, Collier, Midshipman ; Geo. Citry, Ist Asst. Eug. Geo. 11. Law, Gunner, James W. Fa bian, Engineer * Major S. B. Brewer, Asst. Com. Gen. • * ■ Savannah Tueatrk.— The sudden indis position last evening of one of the members of the company compelled the withdrawal of Romeo and Juliet which had been an nounced, and the substitution of “All that Glitters is not Gold.” The latter piece re ceived a very satisfactory rendering, and was eminently pleasing to the audience. The rollicking farce, “The Youth that never saw a Woman,” concluded an excellent bill. A good Saturday night entertalumeut is oflered for this evening. The “Corsican Brothers” will he presented for the benefit of M. J. Howard, and, we are assured, will be excel lently well-done. Steameb Sylph Asiioke.— By a telegraphic (kepatcli received from Fort Pulaski last cvenlug, we learn that the steamer Bylpli, from Hilton Head with passengers and Gov ernment stores, is ashore in the Savannah river, above and north of Fort Pulaski. From reports in circulation, her situation is critical. The steamer Oneoto, Capt. Haslet, with a stroug force to lighten the Sylph, and if pos sible relieve the disabled steamer, went down to her a few minutes after ten o'clock last night. A R::dei. Quabteihustek.— When the Uniou Forces captured Macon, Ga., they found a rebel Quartermaster's store filled with clothing, shoes aud ail that the roldier needs. This storehouse was in charge of a Major named Michuieloffaki. This officer deuied all requisitions made on him to clothe Union and Confederate soldiers. The Uulon Army opened this storeroom for their own as well as the Confederate troops. Augusta Surrendered. —From parties who arrived from Augusta this morning,, we ltjarn that Gen. Wilson’9 Adjutant General has taken possession of the city. Morse, the Editor and Proprietor of the Chronicle & Sentinel, has had to leave the city, efforts having been made to Lynch him. A steamer is expected from Augusta daily. It will briog important and interesting news. Cheap Living. —A gentleman arrived in Savannah yesterday from Macon t.'a Atlanta and Augusta, furnishes us with the following charges for supper, lodging and breakfast; At Atlanta $65, Augusta $125, rebel curren cy. At the Augusta Hotel the charge per cmy for board is $l5O, rebel currency. night the Savannah Theatre orchestra, under Prof. Weigand, Director, visited the Pulaski House and ser enaded their old professional friend Mr. Andrew Waldron, Sr., and the Queen Sis ters, who have recently arrived in Savan nah. The Columbia. —The rebel ram Columbia was brought down Cooper river yesterday by Lieut. Win. Haffards, Chief Pilot of the Navy, and is now moored alongside of the dock at the Northeastern Railroad wharf. On a iliorougti examination, but ouc small leak was discovered, which can be easily repaired.— Charleston Courier, May 3. the sews from the interior. Public attention is now eagerly turned to wards the interior country. The tidings lately received from that legion indicate a breaking up of the foundations of the power which lias usurped the Government there for the past four years. The institutions of society are overwhelmed in the chaos that naturally follows a revolution of such mag nitude. Rioting has already begun. The locai authorities are suspended In their powers, and impotent for help or protection to the citizens. The wealthy are beggared, the poor are more miserable than before.— The class hitherto dominant is overthrown, and a crushed people, maddened with long oppression, is forcibly reasserting its rights. Iu the distress, disorder, aud high feeling prevalent, tumultuous movements may be looked for. Yet the fact that the predominant feeling is a desire to return to the Union—a feeling which is bom of a love cf Law and Order— and the presence of Federal troops,may allay apprehensions, and give assurance that the great transition will be effected with less dis turbance aud violeiice than would otherwise be the case. THE FEDERAL RULE AT MACON. We coudense from the Macon News the billowing account of the occupation of that city by the Federal military authority: Late in the afternoon of Thursday, the 20th,the advance of the Fedejals approached the city, which was surrendered uncondition ally by General Cobb, Flags of truce, bear ing notice of the Armistice had been sent out by General Cobb, but the Federals re fused to recognize them on account of a mis understanding. They met no resistance, as (in accordance with the principles of the Armistice) General Cobb had issued orders against firing a single gun. Many of the Federals entered the towu during Thursday night, took horses aud small articles of value, such as watches; money, silver ware, &c., from the houses of citizens; but this was iu d.reet contravention o special order ■*, and would be punished if thp dei redator could be discovered. We have heard of no acts of personal violence On Friday, lormal possession of the city was taken, a Commandant and Provost Mar shal appointed aud guards stationed, since which no disturbances have occurred nor robberies committed, save petty thefts on the suburbs. and order have reigned, and appre hension has in a great degree disappeared. General Wilson is represented as a gentle man of leniency, and a general who regards the rules of civilized warfare, aud we con gratulate our citizens upon his being iu com mand of the troops here. The Federal soldiers have generally be haved themselves with much decorum. They mingle lreeiy with the citizens in the street, and we have observed no inclination on their part to insult our people. They guard the streets, patrol the town, and when obtained, sleep in the houses of citizens and faithfully guard their premises. To their credit we will state that during the flames that occurred Saturday they la bored actively in saving goods and in pre venting the spread of the flames. Indeed, had it not been lor them, the fire jhat con sumed Johnson’s and Wood’s stores and the Methodist Depository, would have laid the entire square iu ashes, and perhaps spread tarther. It has not been ascertained how those fires occurred; but we have no reason to believe that they originated through the efforts of the Federal soldiers. The General in Command occupies the residence of Col. Nelson, formerly Col. John Bond’s. The office of the Commandant of the Post and of the Provost Marshal are just opposite the Lanier House. The hotel is not opened to travelers, but the trains are run uing on the railroads as usual; and passes must be procured before persons can leave the city. Business has not bceu generally resumed, more, we believe, because of the uncertainty in regard to our currency than any other account. • By order of the commandant of the post, negroes are allowed to pass about the city upon pflsses of the employees, except after dark. Many negroes accompany the Fed eral army—most of them men and boys, but some are women and children. The latter are woe begone iu their appearance, and doubtless wish they were once more safe iu their former homes. Quite a number of Con- federate troops are held here as prisoners, occupying the passenger depot and Cltv Hall. They are wuiting the expiration of. ten days from their capture, when they will be paroled. Rations are not as plentiful with them as might be desired. Members of the Masonic and I. O. O. F. are permitted to pass to and from their res pective Lodges upou passes from the presid ing officer thereof. Druggists, physicians, Railroad officers, and officers and employees of the gas and other public works, are permitted to pass alter dark, to and from their usual places of business. All intoxicating liquors found by the pro vost guards, unless under charge of officers of the respective commissary and medical departments, are destroyed. All officers, as well as enlisted men, found in riotous houses of 111-fame, are arrested. Citizeus wishing to attend the theatre, pro cure passes at the box office when purchasing tickets.— Augusta Constitutionalist, 29th. THE FREED3IEX, The Port Royal New South, of this week, in commenting on Gen. Saxton's order re lating to ireedmen, and on an article upon that subject In the Atlantic for May, says: We regret that our little sheet will not al low us to quote largely from this article. It was evidently written bv Col. T. W. Iligetn «on, formerly of the First South Carolina Volunteers—colored troops. We commend it, however, as oue side ot the argument on the question “What shall be done with the negro? ’ to llioso who honestly have at heart the be9t Interests of our country aud the freedmen. The Colonel, however, makes several er rors of statement, deriving his information from “newspaper correspondents,” of wiiom he makes a breastwork, in irue military style, from which to »ttuck officers at this float. Who be means, we do not know. It s not a lact that white men are forbidden to trade at Mitcbelville, or the colored ’people at Hilton Head. Tbey are here by hundreds 1 every day, and several stores are kept by ! white men at Mitchelville. Aud where are “the freedmen who by i profitable investments have laid up twenty or thirty thousand dollars”? We saw a state ment recently that Robert Small was worth thirty thousand dollars. We asked him to day about it. He says “it is no such thing.” The chief part of all he owns is the amount paid him as his share of the prize money of the Planter—only fifteen hundred dollars, and he Is now Captain of that steamer on a salary of one hundred dollars per month. Nor can Robert tell us of a single freedmau (and he should be well acquainted with the most’ of them in this Department) who is better off than himself. The Colonel should be careful when rouuding his periods, point ing his morals or adorning his tales, to state facts, else the cause which he, in common with all philanthropists,has so much at heart, will suffer. We confess that, for our own part, we cannot see how the inevitable laws, which always have and always will govern capital and labor, can be set aside in the case of the negroes any more than in that of other com munities of poor, ignorant and degraded people. It seems to us that the cost to gov ernment of these experiments (and they are certain!}' nothing else) will be enormous and grievous to be borne in the present condition of. the finances of the country. Will not private capital soon control this matter, and direct the labor of the freedmau to a profit able result—profitable alike to them aud to the country ? In the meantime, and until this great ques tion is fully, fairly, truthfully discussed by the nation and settled bv legislation, avc con sider the Government guardianship, not be ing so kindly extended to the freed peopio, to be the wisest and best protection that can be afforded them. Never before Lave we meddled with ques tion in our columns. But the war Is now drawing to a close. Private enterprise, if properly fostered by Government, will soon open work in this section for thousands of laborers. They are here, and unless poison ed by false ideas of “liberty and equality" can be made of inestimable service not only to themselves but to the .whole country.— The subject presses too close upon us to neg lect it longer.
