The Savannah Daily Herald. ritIDAT. ;ft ; Mk 14,. f'HO.TI OUR Ei EAINO EDITION OF YESTERDAY. POPULARITY OP PRESIDENT JOHA SON. Perhaps uo President lias come into (he exercise of his authority with less preposses siou in hi 9 favor, or under circumstances more unfavorable to the growth of populari ty than President Johnson. He had not even the prestige of the successful candidate of a popular election; he could not command even the sycophantic clamor that arises to greet the incoming of anew government; the country had not been suffering under the misrule of a bad administration from which it was now joyfully freeing itself to receive the new choice of the majority. None of these auspicious circumstances attended the secession of Andrew Johnson to the Presi dency. His attainment of Presidential hon ors was simply the result of tne natural routine of our law’s; the people were still absorbed in mourning their ter rible bereavement ; his ptedecessor was one who ranks second to Washington, only in the love and admiration of the peo ple. The inauguration took place in a pri vate apartment, in the presence of perhaps a score of people, and the new President took his seat surrounded only by a body guard, while the eyes ol the people were strained after those who pursued the assassin and their “hearts were in the cof fin” with their President, as they still called him. Under such an unhappy combination ot events did President Johnson assume his trying position. Nor w r as this all. Besides these negative disadvantages bearing upon Mr. Johnson, there was even a positive distiust of his abil ity, and of the rectitude of his intentions. A thirst for revenge, a subjection to partisan prejudices and purposes, and a headstrong will were so persistently attributed to his character that it began to be widely doubted if the new 7 President wisdom, moderation, and singleness of purpose requi site for the task of reconstructing the shat tered fabric of the Nation. A week of official action had scarcely elapsed before an entire revolution in the popular feeling with regard to President Johnson was witnessed. His responses to the addresses w hich were presented to him from all quarters so numerously, indicated so lull and just au appreciation of his position, and his proclamations set forth so discreet and temperate a policy that from all quarters were received congratulations and the most cheer ful acquiescence to his authority. The South, which had been looking for the most rigorous measures from him, have been disappointed in every instance w here a display of the tem per and tyranny attributed to him might have been expected; the loyal masses of the North have rejoiced at the wisdom, firmness and mildness with which he has dealt with the vexed questions of amnesty and recon struction. Few* disparage President Johnson whose disparagement is not lather compli mentary than otherwise. From Augusta.— The steamer Comet, Capt.

We congratulate our Augusta frieuds upon the restoration of the U. S. Mail fa cilities. The Gov. Titour Disaster.— Six dead bodies have recently been discovered in the Savannah river at different points below where the Gov. Troup was burned a fort night since. All colored persons, save one. Burial of the dead at the Wilderness Battle Field.— The government yesterday despatched five hundred men, with iutreneli rneut tools and coffins to the battle-fields of the Wilderness, for the purpose of decently interring the remains of all soldiers exposed to view, of which there are quite a number. Released from the Old Capitol. —Sever- al parties imprisoned on suspicion of compli city in the conspiracy have been released from the old Capitol, together with some witnesses in the assassination case, also con fined there. • General Grierson, the famous raider, has been assigned to the command of the national cavalry in the Department of the Gulf. Gen. Canby has turned over a portion of his cav alry to General Sheridan, The Shenandoah Valley. —According to accounts from the Shenandoah Valley, the people there have gladly settled down to the changed condition of affairs. More Piracy. —We tiud the annexed most curious paragraph in the Northern papeis.— it seems unlikely to be true : % “A correspondent of the Nassau Guardian of the 10th of May tells a strange story of outrages alleged to have been committed by tlie rebel pirate Parr off Inagua, which, how ever, later Nassau advices do not confirm.— This account states that Parr captured the bark Lizzy, from Cuba, set her on fife, left all on board to save themselves in the small boats or be burned or drowned, and sailed • away, telling them that lie intended to drown a thousand before the war was over. It. is added that some of the Lizzy’s passengers were believed to have been burned or drown ed.” Curious Correspondence? —The follow ing statement is almost too strange to Use true, but if it can be proved it will place the Messrs. Woods, Seymours & Cos., in “a pe culiarly perplexing predicament:” Stranqe On Dit. —It is reported the gov ernment has discovered a large batch of let ters from Fernaudo Wood, Ben Wood, the Seymours, and various other persons in the North, among the rebel archives seized in Richmond. It Is further said that these let ters, when published, will staitle the com munity, showing as they will the complicity of the writers in the devilish work of the re bellion.—N. Y. Herald, 1 Oth . A Seasonable Hint.—A person leaving a warm room, and going into a colder, or into the open air, should carefully close the lips tor a few minutes, uutil he has become, as it were, acclimatized to the colder atmosphere, aud breathe through the uostrils alone, by which the cold air is made to traverse the long, warm nasal passage before it reaches the windpipe aud vocal organs ; and its tem perature being thus raised, one common mode of •‘catching cold” is avoided. Most persons, upon leaving a warm church or hot concert room, immediately open their mouths to discuss the merits of those they have just heard,and tuauy.a severe cold is taken. It is equally common, but still worse, • for a pub lic speaker to do so ; for his throat is more heated from his recent exertions, and he m«y, and often does, become hoarse for a month by such apparently trilling neg lect. Strange Couple. —ln the lower part of Ibis city, says the Augusta Transcript, reside a man and his wife who have not spoken to each other for the past eight years. What reuders their conduct singular is, that not withstanding this tact they occupy the same room, and move along as if there were no cloud belweeu them. Government Stores Returned. —We learn that one hundred and fifty boxes of medical stores, belonging to the ••rebels,” have been eturned to the authorities m this city, in pur suance of the call issned by the command ant.—Augusta Tnmsciij.t . Thu ReV M D (to* in tii« Cote tnunwealth this !tgi*«*blr sketch of tb® late performance of Fernando Woad In London. Mr. Wood left for Paris immediately after the play, and, as wc learn, took no part in the meeting called by Mr. Adams, our minis ter to England: “You may judge of the scorn with which Americans in London read, in Thursday morning's papers, the following notice; “‘Sir,- I shall be much obliged if you will state that a meeting of tbe Americans in London will be held at this hotel to morrow, at 12 o’clock, with reference to some appro priate expression of sentiment concerning tbe lamentable intelligence from the United States. “ 4 Very truly yours, 44 4 Fernando Wood. 44 ‘Grosvknor Hotel Pimlico, April 26.’ ” “It was seen through ia a moment. A goodly number of loyal Americans went there determined to prevent this sneaking effort of Wood to be tbe American represen tative aud paragon of patriotism here (where be lias been for two weeks), and there was in the room ready for use a certain message of bis recommending the very proper and praiseworthy destruction of tbe United States as a good moment for tbe secession of. New zAork City. When we bad all been seared in silence for a few moments, a model waiter of tbe aristocratic Grosvenor Hotel came to the door and proclaimed, • ‘Gen tlemen ! the Honorable Fernando Wood!” As tiiat sleek and oily individual walked in, slow and stately, some individual began a clap with bis bauds—whereupon he was utterly covered up aud bidden away beneath spontaneous hushes and hisses from every throat. Fernando caught the hurricane in his breast, staggered a little, then went on to the upper pari of the room. Someone then proposed that he (Wood) should *ake the chair, but almost before the motiou had passed from his lip, Dr. Black, of Kentucky, entered the door and called out; ‘Gentle men; I have come from the residence of tbe American minister, and have a message from a number ol eminent Americans to those who have gathered here-’ Dr. B. then said that it was the opinion of Mr. Adams and the gentlemen in consultation with him that a general meeting of Americans should be held in St. James s Hall on Monday evening, and that all should reserve auy minor expression until then. The Woodite thought that this meeting might go on; but he was interrupted by a call to adjourn. The next attempt was to thank Fernando Wood for calling us to gether : but Rev. Crammond Kennedy, sub-* ageut with Dr. Huyne for the freedmen, mounted a chair aud asked if Americans needed to thank auy man for calling them together ; whereupon tbe motion to thank not being put, tbe crowd left the room to Wood anc. bis friend. You may think this manifestation ol feeling harsh; but 1 assure you that it was.what the human nature of lionoQible men was not able to stand, to be hold tbe countenance of one who bad devo ted bis life to strengthening the arm that has covered America with devastation anil grief, in the very hour when that arm had fillad Up the measure of its iniquities.” Masonic. —The Grand Lodge of the State of New York has ju9t concluded its Annual Session. The Herald, of June 10th, says: Grand Lodge of Free Masons. —This body concluded its labors last night, after a very harmonious session. During the morning tbe officers elect were duly installed. Ai the afternoon session Brother Harry J. Seymour, Grand Master ot the Rite of Memphis, in be half of his Order, presented one hundred and fiity dollars as a donation to the Hall and 1 Asylum Fund.

Woodruff; Brooklyn, William W. Freeman. There beiug no further business, the Grand Lodge was closed in ample form. Cost of Marino a Newspaper — The New Y T ork Herald makes the subjoined state ment, which will, we fancy, open the eyes of certain of our friends who seem to imagine that a newspaper can be made for nothing, and that editors and cor respondents work without pay: Cost of tuk War Correspondence of the Herald. the last lour years we have employed between thirty aud forty, and sometimes more correspondents, including the army aud navy for the Herald. They have been attached to urmy corps, depart ments, headquarters, and at every point on sea or laud where the services of a special correspondent could be an advantage to the public. Our army correspondents have, on an average, used up or hud captured one or two horses each. The whole cost of this war correspondence establishment reached during the rebellion the sum of nearly halt a million of dollars. A kiss is a little thing, and evanescent, but ot potent intlueucence. A lingering, lender kiss will flood the heart with joyous emo tioßs when a volume of words might fail. If lndeth up sore spirit, and oft given, cov ereth a multitude of shortcomings. None of us can forget that it was the panacea ot child hood. To wonieu it is as uecessary as the sunshine and the dew to the rose. We re fer not to the “strong-minded" of the sex, who, in their boasted independence, find all that is neediul to existence within them selves, but to these gentle, domestic beings who make glad homes. A freqnent, heart giving kisg will keep fresh the sweetness which otherwise would turn to coldness and indifference- Mahv* Ufm't Artr ran ffiiUiiiii »W|tu liable of his ttiaity high intellectual qualities Rod with a tender appreciation of tbe impor tance of small people, Baron liebig devotes a special .article In an English Scientific peri odical to tbe description of anew article of diet wbicb he conceives to be the most fitting substitute for tbe natural nutriment for those children whose are by circumstances robbed of their mother s milk. It is well known that a cow’s milk does not adequately represent the milk of a healthy woman, and when wbeaton flout is added, as it commonly is, Liebig points out that, although starch be not unfitting for tbe nourishment of the infant, the change of it into sugar into the stomach during digestion, imposes an unnecessary la bor on tbe organization, which will be spared it if tlie starch be beforehand transformed into the soluble forms ot sugar and dextrine. This he effects by adding to the wheaten flour a certain quautity of malt. As wheaten flour and malt flour contain les6 alkali than wo man's milk, he supplies this when preparing the soup. This “soup” may lie shortly pre pared as follows: “Half an ounce of wheat en flour, and an equal quantity of malt flour, seven grains and a quarter of bi-carbonate of potash, and one ounce of water, are to be well mixed ; five ounces of cow s milk are then to be added; and tbe whole put on a gentle fire; when the mixture begins to thicken it is removed trom the fire, stirred during five minutes, heated and stirred again tilt it becomes quite fluid, and finally made to boil After the separation of the bran by a sieve it is ready for use. By boiling it lor a few minutes it loses all taste of the flour. A Word on Clocks.— lngenious men of all ages, from Archimedes, 200 years h. c., to Wallingford, at the commencement of the fourteenth centurv, have been cited as the inventors of tlie clock. The fact is, that the clock, like almost every other useful imple ment gradually grew to perfection: one man suggested wheel-work; another the weight for maintaining or driving-power; another the balance for regulating tbe expenditure of that power; another tbe dial and hands; an other tbe striking parts, and so on; and at last, one man combined all together in one machine, and gained the credit of makiug t.he first clock. This man appears to have been one Henry de Wick, or de Vick, who placed a clock in tbe tower of the palace of Charles Charles the Fifth, about tbe year 1364, which clock is the most aucient of which there ex ists any particular description. The princi ples upon which it was constructed were es sentially the same as those of the presnet day; that is there was a moving power and a regu tiug power. The moving power was a weight hun£ to a cord, wouud round a barrel; the unwinding of which, by the fall of the weight, gave motion to a train of wheels that moved the hands- around the dial. The regulating power was a balance-wheel, swinging backward and forward alter the manner of the watch-balance, so familiar to us all. Preof.pt and Practice. —We have been informed that a short while since, one of the new “schoolma’ams,’ in Savannah told her flock of little darkies that they were just as good as anybody—iu fact, on a par in point of privileges with white people, aud they had a right to protect themselves from violence, etc. The other day, this same in structress had occassion to wallop a good sized ebouy urchin in her school, lor some misdemeanor, whereupon this newly fledged freedman, doubtless remembering her dis sertation on “privileges,’’deliberately pitched in—returning her blows with compound in terest—she coming out second best. On complaint before the Court, tlie apt pupil was forwarded to Hilton Head.— Augusta Transcript. To Housekeepers. —As the.season for pies and puddings is close at hand, we would state for the benefit of housekeepers, that the acid in all fruits may be neutralized by putting a third of a tablespoonful of soda in the fruit. It does not affect the flavour iu the least, and it requires a less quantity of sugar to sweeten. The Peach was origibally a poisonous al mond. Its fleshy paits were used to poison arrows, and for this purpose introduced into Prison. The transplantations and cultiva tion, however, not only removed its poison ous qualities, but produced the delicious fruit that we now enjoy.

The speakers ad vertised were General B. F. Butler, Hon. W. D. Kelley and Wendell Phillips. The first named ot these was unavoidably absent.— The Commonwealth says:—“The masterly address oi Judge Kelley, a conclusive argu ment tor negro suffrage, the application of that argument by Wendell Phillips, aud the oold aud heroic enunciation of their purposes ID Congress by Messrs.
