I 0 CAL MAT TEJ (CORRESPONDENCE.) benefit OFt hkcath° U c ohp h v\ Savannah, August 3, 1865- Hev. P. DrFAC, Sir The members of the Virginia Minstrels now performing for a limited perod in this city, beg leave to tender you a complimentary benefit in behalf of the orphan i under your charge. No subject has en grossed the attention of the company, more than extending a helping hand to need and virtue, and rescuing from want those whom these troublous times have aUlicted and deprived of their protectors and guardians. Charitably and nobly engaged in your praiseworthy object, we will give a performance on Friday evening, the 4th day of August, at St. An drew's Hall, in aid of your Asylum, and will pay over the proceeds of the house, after paying ex penses. We beg your acceptance of this tender on our part. We are Very Respectfully, D. j. Shaffer, Billy Coater, H. A. Howard, Leo. Carroll, Reub. Macon, L. McLaughlin, S. Burroughs, r. H. soaifer, Dan Santo, J. W. Budworth, Jos. W. liilvaney. Savannah. July 3d, 1885. To Messrs. D. J. Shaffer and Company. Gentlemen I accept with gratitude your chari table purpose of giving a complimentary benefit for the aid and assistance of the Catholic Orphan Asylum to-morrow evening. Our Asylum has never been In such distress as at present. Several of the Orphans are oare-footed, and half naked for want of pecuniary means to clothe them. Respectfully yours, - Rev. P. Dcfau. Launch of the schk. anna Sims.—We have pre viously noticed In our columns that Mr. Rufus P. Hawkes, formerly of the well-known firm of Krenson & Hawkes, had at his ship-yard, east of the Savan nah and Ogeechee Canal, built the first vessel, either steam or sail, since the advent of peace. The Anna Sims, which was intended to have been launched some time since, but was prevented by the low tides, was finally got off yesterday afternoon. Everything being ready, the' blocks were knocked out at naif past five o’clock, and a more successful launch has uot been witnessed in Savannah. As the schooner reached her element Mr. George A. Reed, representing the firm of Charles L. Colby A Cos., the owners, christened the craft with the usual cere monies. Immediately after the launch, and when tne schooner had been saiely moored at a wharf ad jacent to the ship-yard of Mr. Hawkes, a large num ber of our enterprising merchants, and vessepown ers, who have identified themselves with Savannah interests, assembled in the office formerly occupied by Deilauoy & Zeigler. Among those present we noticed Capt. Hollway, of the firm of C. L. Colby A Cos., Mr. E. Slater, Chief Engineer of the Government Machine Shops, Lieut Knowlton, in charge of Transportation and Machine Shops, Capt. Richardson, U. S. A., and many others whose names we could not learn. An excellent collation having been prepared by Mr. Wm. Solt, conviviality reigned until near night. Capt. Holway being called upon, gave the toast, “The Anna Sims." Lieut. Knowlton and Mr. E. Slater, followed with toasts complimentary to the house of C. L. Colby & Cos., “destined to become the leading commercial house in Georgia.” The compliment paid to Colby A Cos. was respond ed to by Mr. Reed. Mr. Hawkes will, without fail, have the Anna Sims ready for sea in about two weeks. The owners in tend to place her in the trade between Savannah and Florida, or Cuba. The craft was christened lu compliment to a south ern lady, now resident at Brooklyn, New York, whose charities and philanthropy are well known and appreciated. - \ The following are the dimensioas of the Anna Sims: length over all, 87 feet; breadth or beam, 10 feet 10 Inches; depth of hold, 8 feet 8 inches. Accord ing tothe old measurement of vessels, she will rate 55 tons burthen. The Steamek Swan.—This flue iron-hulled steam er, built by Harlan A Hollingsworth, Wilmington, Delaware, and which formerly plied on the Savan nah r ver between Savannah and Augusta, under command of Capt. Richard Johnson, and subse quently under Capt. Garnett, Is to,be restored to the commercial and travelling public. The Swan was built for the planters on the South Carolina and Georgia shore of the Savannah river, to ply between the landing. At the evacuation of Sa vannah, the Swan, after reaching the landing at Screvan’s Ferry, opposite the. city, was burned and sunk on the South Carolina shore. The owners of the steamer having obtained the sanction of the Gov ernment to raise the vessel, Mr. Moses A. Cohen, who for years was the Agent of the Swan and other steamers engaged In the up river and coast trade, advertised for proposals for raising the Swan. Messrs. Brown A Moran made a contract with Mr. Cohen, and after eighteen days of work in mud and water, they were successful in putting on two patches of iron io the hull. They then bailed her out with buckets and Barely brought her to the wharf of Miller’s foundry. Arrangements have been made so that Mr. Chas. Grieves will haul up the steamer on ways he Is erect lng at the ship yard of Messrs. Krenson & Hawkes, and put the hull of the Swan in good condition, to rate her No. 1 In commercial circles and Insurance companies. It wili take about fifty days or two months to re build the swan. When fully loaded with cotton and passengers, her draft of water will be but three feet and at all seasons she can ply on the river. Timber and Turpentine Lands for Sale.— We Invite the attention of the public to the advertise ment of Mr. E. C. Wade, offering for sale ten thou sand acres of timber and turpentine lands, in Pierce and Ware counties. These lands are eligibly located on the line of the Savannah and Gulf Railroad, be tween the lines of road leading from Macon to Bruns wick and from tke latter place to Albany. The rivers Satilla and Allapaha, navigable for rafts to the Gulf, run through them. They are also irrigated by smaller streams, and abound in excellent ranges for cattle and sheep. The section of country is one of the healthiest In the State; the land is productive, and adapted to the cultivation of cotton, sugar, corn, 4c. Raving been over them, we can confidently recommend these lands as offering unusual advantages to those who desire to* em embarii in the timber and turpentine business which Is destined to become an important and profitable branch of commerce in our section. The ranging timber on these lands is of the best ’quantity. To capitalists a rare opportunity for profitable investment is offered, as the turpentine business, al ways profitable, must now become even more remu nerative, not only on account of the steadily in creasing demand in the foreign and home markets, but because the labor of the country can at present, be more advantageously, and reliably employed in the timber and turpentine fields than in the cultiva tion of crops requiring more systematic and constant attention. Virginia Minstrels—benefit of the Catholic Osi'Han AsvlUjl.— By the correspondence published this morning, it will be seen popular vocal troupe, the Virginia Minstrels have tendered a benem to that truly worthy charitable institution, the Cath- ollc Orphan Asylum. Aside from the attractiveneaa of the entertainment the object for which it is given will, we doubt*not, Induce a full house to-night. Ikon Thieving. —On the Savannah river, as also all streams and rice plantations, the large threshing and rice-pounding mills have been wantonly destroy ed to secure the plunder of iron, brass and copper. It will take millions of dollars to replace the proper ty destroyed, the patterns of aU castings used having been burned or destroyed. Among those which have suffered was the steamer Gen. Lee, sunk at McAlpin’s landing. Her brasses and rods were stolen and sold. The engines of the Swan also were torn to pieces as she lay at Screven’s Ferry. Nothing was left but her boilers and shafts; her cyl inders were broken up and probably sold. This thieving has been so extensively and systematically conducted—tools, in many cases, being used to screw off bolts, etc.—as to excite considerable remark, and no effort will be spared to bring offenders to condign punishment. Ruffianism and Robbebt.— On Wednesday even ing last, a colored man, who for years was in the em ploy of Mr. Feely, proprietor of the Pulaski House Omnibusses, was met on West Broad street and robb ed of the contents of his pocket—about four dollars. This colored man is one who has won by his kind ness and civility the good will of the community. The faithful old servant was severely injured aud is receiving the kindest attention. Sole Leather.— The boot and shoe makers of our city have for some months been out of good hemlock tanned sole-leather. The enterprising firm of L. J. Guilmartin A Cos., learning of this want have obtain ed a large lot of hemlock-tanned sole leather. The supply is not very large, considering the scarcity, and all who are out of this finding, will do well to call soon. THE COURTS. DISTRICT PROVOST COURT—BEFORE LIEUT. COL. ROBT. F.
