W the Savannah Herald.) 1 New York, Aug. 24-3 P.M. \ Regular Tiling ■isow-a-days is our diurnal Railroad Catas- Knhe It stems as if all our railroad mana- Es bad conspired to see who can get up the Enest kind of a horrible massacre. This Bn undoubtedly continue an epidemic until BL one or two of these culpable fellows are S, or .ret slaughtered themselves. By the IX such a man as old Vanderbilt, who now Fjf tbe Hudson River Railroad, as well as fEilrtrlcm. gets cooly murdered by being lEbed up in some railroad casualty, the JjErt, W )U begin to take measures to ensure S safety of life and limb upon our great .B thoroughfares. At present it is with M' and trembling that one hears of a friend taken passage on any car route, and t»ir safe arrival is considered the exception, tbe rule. our New Fire Department B its troubles, incidental of course to the MabUsbracnt ot such an affair on the relies Kn old and effete system. Compelled as ne w Commissioners were to take up with E members of the old department until the Bbts of experience should enable them to out the rowdy and ineffective hangers- H tt is not surprising that full success has M t yet attended their efforts. One night, a Beck or so ago, we were treated to a genu- Heriot between two of the old volunteer Kmpanies, in which pistols were used pretty and several lives were lost. The finally suppressed the little “exer Kes" of the firemen by a gallant charge into He melee and a free use of their “locusts,” ■bleb, to a looker-on, brought afre3h to Hmorv the scenes of Printing House Square H t he Times and Tribune delight to call the Kcalily,) during the riots of July, ’63. The Ho fire companies, “Big Six” and “41,” will Hubtless be disbanded. The former has ever He: tbe nucleus of a political machine H'l:.i'i has run the affairs of the East side for Ham years, and from the ranks of its ex Kembers has spruDg the “Americus Club,” H-,v a prominent local political organiza- Hon. No. “41,” however, was the party Host at fault. Its members hired a boy to Ht fire to a bed, in order to call out tbeir op- Hnents, and armed themselves in anticipa- Hq thereof for a fight. “Six’s "fellers, noth- H loth, soon followed suit, and the affray Hcamc a lively one—so lively, in fact, that Htil heavily reinforced the police of the pre- Kct were unable to quellit. The Chief En- Hseer, Unkingsland, has brought the matter Bfore the Commissioners, and “Big Six ' Hd “41” will soon belong to the past.— Hanwhile, and until the department is fully we may look for more events of Bie same sort, for it is reported that when ver there is a fire o’ nights, some or others f tbe firemen intend to pitch in generally, t won’t have any other effect, however, than o hurry up the Commissioners in the work f reorganization, and to impress the public aind that the quicker it is effected the better. Touching the Netv Commlnloner* here is a story afloat, which shows they are lot exactly, or at least a portion of them, he persons that Diogenes was in search of rith his lamp. We are to have a large num ler of new steamers attached to the depart ment, and of course fat pickings are some rhere in the bush. Prom what has been laid at the meetings of the Commissioners, it m evident that a very nice perquisite has Been obtained in former days in the way of yommissions on contracts, and that some of [Ac new members were quite willing to con tinue in the same boat. Before three meet- Bs of the new board had taken place* the Hatter came up for action, and it w’as broad m hinted that ten per cent commission could Ke obtained if the contracts were awarded ■favorably. One member, however, was ■bund to be incorruptible, for he pitched Straight into the “perquisite" business, de clared there was no such thing down in the Books for him, and that he would not con sent to anybody else'* having a finger in any Auch pie. He was determined that the con *-act9 should be given to those who would Bo the best work for the least money, and Rendered bis resignation in case such a rule ■vas not adopted, I see, however, that he Continues to attend the meetings of the board Ind infer therefrom that the “ ten pgr cent Hmmission” is a defunct institution. W General BunuUr. ■ It may interest your readers to know that Gen. Burnaldc, of whom the soldiers appear to think vastly, |udging from the enthusiastic graftings which returning regiments give bln| at sight, has gone into anew line of bus inets, abandoning the military life fbr a civil ’pOJtioo, which seems likely to at no dUtaoj daj realize to him a well-deserved compe tency. He has embarked his means with ••ether gentleman of Eaatern origin in the lttttinsville and Fianklin Railroad of In ,*ma. The road ia a short one, bnt is In a Kion where some extensions will make it a Ert of a through route to Bt. Louis and the Meat West. The property was purchased a •ear or two since by the gentleman who is low a partner wit Mbs General for a mere Jbng, $2,1100 being, I understand, all that ras paid for tbe road, while it Is anticipated bat in a year or two its value can be raised o a large figure, to say nothing of profits in he meantime of two or three hundred thou sand dollars. Everybody who knows Bum lide hopes he will do well, and those who mow him intimately feel certain that bis ability, industry and probity will ere long make him A rich man. The Brooklyn Churches arc almost as numerous as the clams of Rock- way, to say nothing of the sands of the sea shore. There is one on nearly every eligible corner of the city, varying in size and appear ance from the big barn in which Brother Beecher performs every Sabbath to an im mense audience, to the splendidly appointed “Trinity" and the little negro church on De- Kalb avenue. But there are not enough as yet it seems, for the congregation of St. Ann’s Episcopal Church, one of the richest in the country, and they have no debt and a very large fund in the Treasury, have pur chased an immense lot on the corner of Clin ton and Joralemon streets, and will erect one of the most magnificent church edifices in the country. They have worshipped in a homely looking building on Washington street for many years, and now want to shine forth in anew edifice which will equal in ap pearance if not quite in size the great Trinity Church of New York, which overshadows the domains of the bulls and bears, as well ns the defaulters of Wall Street. The “Lovti of Bonnet*.” are shortly to lose their enviable position on the heads of the Flora McFlimsies of this metropolis. It’s a pity, for the diminunitive little things are very pretty and set off the fair wearers top pieces more attractively even than could be done by nature itself. But the dictates of fashions are as stem as the decrees of fate—in fact they are fate itself. What in the world would the milliners do for a livelihood, if a fashion lasted longer than a month or two ? Seriously the change has begun. Bonnets with capes to them are already in tbe field, and beginning to take the place of the jaunty little half hand kerchief hats which have displayed so many handsome waterfalls this season ; and I hear it for a fact, from a source I cannot question, lhatlone lady has actually received from Paris anew article in the bonnet line, which is to be tbe fashion, but which the lady is ashamed to don as yet, and which is as large as the celebrated eoal-hod shaped bonnets out grandmothers used to wear, and of which the concert going “old folks,” have often exhibited to their audiences a carica ture. To be plain, the bonnets which will be the fashion this winter are as large as the late style has been small, and their appear ance will create a sensation among the femi nines. The “Waterfall*” are also to go out of fashion. They have become so large and weighty that there is eminent danger of top heaviness on the part of the fair wearers, to say nothing of (when the waterfall is of genuine hair) then pull ing the hair out by the roots. Anew style of waterfall has made its appearance—term ed a “haystack,” whichis, however, only a modification of the waterfall itself. As change begets change, and the prerogative of the waterfall is already invaded, it is only fair to conclude that but a short time will elapse ere they are cast off entirely, and a more natural method of wearing the hair adopted. The new. bonnets which I have spoken of will inevitably “play out” the wa terfall, and in a few months the young la dies’ as well as many of the older ones will wonder that they ever followed Dame Fash ion so far as to wear such abominable queues, for they can be classed by no other name. Western Manners ate sometime? conclusive of difficulties this side of the Mississippi river. At lea9t such was the conclusion of the ex-Mayor ot , a few days ago. While indulging in a lounge around town, he sauntered into the bar-room of one of our up-town hotels, where, he met a few friends, and there was considerable “smiling" indulged in on renewing old ac quaintance. During some remarks about the productiveness of certain mines in the sec tion of country from whence he had just ar rived, a by-stander, not of the party, inter polated an exclamation “That’s a d-d lie ! I know it’s a lie, for I've been there !’’ Our ex-Mayor quietly said “That’s fighting talk”! drew his revolver, and was about to fire, when his friends knocked the revolver up, and the bullet buried itself in the ceiling. That bar-room was empty in a second—a couple of police had our ex-Mayor disarmed in a twinkling and whisked him off to the station-house. Here was a pretty go for a man who had beau Mayor, and is now a high State official when at hohte—lodged in a station, surrounded by thieves, drunkards, pickpockets, etc. ! In the cell opposite our ex-Mayor had vis-a-vis two notorious thieves, who coolly asked him who he was, and he foolishly told them. ‘ Hi-yer name's Colkey, is it,—and is that yer brother wbat keeps the crib in Baxter street” ? “No—and foe Jjapged to you.” “Ah, Jimy he’s a game bird, any how. Colkey, say, me boy, wbat yer jugged fur—-been shaving queer, or cracking a crib?" “See here,” says Colke, “you chaps better let me alone, or I’ll shoot you, when I get my revolver, you blasted thieves.” “Bully for you, Colkey! yer an honor to tbfi per feshun—but what did yer let the peelers gst yer fur—why didn't yer tun down to yer brothers ?” “By thunder," said Colke, “this Is too bftd-rgpt to stay here rest of the night with such infernal scoundrels—wish i had left my revolver in Colorado." dust then an officer went along, who informed bis tor mentors that the new prisoner had been ar rested for attempting to shoot a man. They then discussed the merits of the case between themselves, and again directed their remarks to the ex-Mayor jtfter this wise : "Say, Colkey, me boy, yer didn’t play it fins enough this time—when yer make a muss in a hotel bar-room, so yer pale can pick pockets and hist watches, yer musn't pull out yer revolv er,—it’s bad,—and it don’t give yer palsja good show, coz the crowd allers runs away, yer see !" This was too much for Colke—he raved and swore like a caged tiger, much to the delight of his unseen tormentors, who really thought he was playing posaum on them. Finally, the friends of the ex-Mayor obtained the services of one of our accom modating Justices, who bailed him out, and no culprit ever heard so welcome a sound, as was the creaking of the bolts and bars which kept him within ear-shot of-what proved to be a pair of papel-thleves of the lowest order. Mo one appearing the next day against him, our hero was discharged and he straightway went to the station-house’ presenting bis revolvar to the officer who ar rested hkn, vowing that he would 'rely on SAVANNAH, GEORGIA, TUESDAY, AUGUST 29, 1865. his fists in future. The memory of that night, he says, will haunt him forever. He has left for home, a little disgusted at being arrested tor what is an everyday occurrence in his locality. Th* Last Defalcation was probably the most flagrant ever known i in the financial history of this mammon worshiping city. Ido not refer to Ketchum, or any of those fellows whose history bßs been bruited forth in the sensational moneta ry articles of our “heavies,” —bnt to the as tounding disclosure that “Nigger John," a well-known head-waiter in one of our most prominent and largest patronized eoffee-and cake saloon, has been discovered to be a de faulter to the amount of ever so much less than the receipts of a week’s sales of crul lers! Croesus who employed “Nigger John,” will soon issue a card explaining affairs to the public. The ungrateful defaulter was last seen with an old fireman's hat on, a car pet back tied up with twine, plethorically bulging with an over-plus of second-hand crullers, and has probably gone to Saratoga or Spuyten-Duyvil Creek, there to revel in luxuries obtained by his ill-gotten gains The remorse which must haunt his bosom at thus clandestinely quitting the friendly un derground above, where he was permitted to sleep o’ days with the cats and roaches in the coal hole, and where he fed sumptuously upon the odds and ends left by hungry fire men and midnight bummers, will undoubt edly drive him to desperation, and lead bim to exclaim ere many alarms of fire are sound ed by the City Hall bell, in the most intense agony of spirit, “truly the way ot the trans gressor is hard!” Yea—verily—as hard as a week-old Bowery cruller!” Tlie Heavy Receipts of Cotton at New- York. The large supplies of cotton from the South, which were for some time expected in vain, are at last arriving in full measure at this port. The receipts in this market alone, during tbe last six weeks, have been over one hundred thousand bales, (103,648,) or an average of more than seventeen thou sand bales a week. Last week we had close upon twenty thousand bales (19,- 404.) According to the advices from the sea board and river cities, and from the cotton growing region ot the South, the volume, flowing hitherward bids fair to increase largely during the coming autumn months. At New Orleans,on the 11th inst , there were 81,568 bales on hand, with large daily re ceipts, and stock at Mobile is also consid erable, thongh it is kept down by the defi ciency ot inland water transports to fetch it from the interior. This, however, was being remedied by the construction ot a fleet of light flat boats to be employed expressly iu this work. It is only that part of the staple lying most convenient to the seaboard cities which has thus far been brought into them. The break in the South Carolina Railroad, between Orahgeburgh and Colnmbia,has prevented the upland cotton in that State from reaching Charleston. The damage done to the Geor gia Central Railroad, and to the Savannah and Gulf Railroad, by Sherman, has hereto fore cut off the greater part of the cotton growing region of Georgia from Savannah ; but we suppose that by this time both of these lines are in running order. A letter (torn Jacksonville in a city cotemporary yes torday. said that in Florida but little of the cotton crop had been brought in, except such as was stored near the railroad, and added that it was estimated there that were 50,000 bales in the State at the close of the war. The cotton ot Central Alabama has been detained in the up-country by the cause we have already mentioned, Probably the Southern State which has had the largest proportion of its stock brought to market is Mississippi; but that in the western parts of the State is as yet almost untouched. Wes tern Louisiana and Southern Arkansas (as the recripts at New Orleans show) have also forwarded abundantly. Os pourse much of this cotton in the Gulf States we fiaye and also in the State of Texas, will not be brought to this market, but will be purchased on European account, and shipped there direct. UfThere has as much cotton arrived at New York, New-Orleans, and the other cities of the Southern seaboard, within the past three months, as some of the speculators estima ted to exist within the entire South, in May last. And yet the greater part of the cot tpn-growing region has not been reached. W 7: rejoice at the large receipts, present and prospective, of {his important staple. It has already set the spinning mills ot New- England into activity, and has literally given employment to tens of thousands of men and women. It will cheapen the prices of goods, and supply us with the home-made article. It is increasing commercial and business activity. It is being earned to Eng- Bin tbe steamships and sailing ships that e qgr port daily, and will presently tell in our bellalf, ii* tJti'VPS tit e balance pf trade in onr favor, in regulating exchange?, and in adding to the value of our currency and decreasing the price of gold ; and by these and other means will magnify the prosperity of the nation.— N.
