Dep'k— Bni: Some month* fence I waA officially notified by you that the Hebau> had been awarded the publica tion of the List of Letters remaining in the Savannah Poet Office, after having proved, by eworn atate- ments. that it had the largest circulation in the city, aa reonired by the act of Congress. I observed that on Tuesday the Republican contained a copy of the offi cial list furnished to the HebaU). with the announce ment that it appeared in that journal *” “ cord ““ with the act of Congress requiring its publication in the paper having the largest circulation. I respectful ly call vour attention to thi* mis-statement.and request that you will give me your written evidence ae to whether the Hebaiui is or la not alone entitled to euch official publication. _ . In this connection I tale the liberty of referring to another announcement at the head of the Republican columns, that It has the largest paid circulation in the clt’v and county, and to request that you will state whether, in the sworn statements of the city circula tion of the two papers, the Hduld's. after easlndlng all free circulation, did not exceed the circulation of the Republican, aa rendered from that office. 1 am sir, very respeotfully.

WM. B. BOYD. 122 *' •* TROUBLE IN THE WEST. It appears that the farmers in the west are in as much trouble a8 the planters ot the ouili. Tne market piice of all kinds of produco is much below what it was during tne war, and taxes press heavily, while maouiactured goods were never so costly. But the chief grievance ia«the high rate of wages demanded by farm hands; twenty and twenty-five dollars a month and found, is uow asked by the laborers who were glad to work for twelve dollars before the war. This lust exaction has incensed the farmers so much that they are holding indignation meetings, and passing resolutions against their own laborers. The secret of the matter seems to be that the disbanded soldiers arc generally settling at the South, or are making their way- to the new Terri lories to better their fortunes. To show the temper of these discussions, we give the following extract from a speech delivered by the president of a large meeting held in Illinois: Wo must do something or go under; I bolieve we have the power to rectify these abuses. It is folly to toll our farms and psy the wages we did last year. II jarapi could have agreed, anu lived up to it, to put in rWft mi«gfinginnftt ttey with such assistance as their family affords, and they will bo Utter off than to make all their lands puy tribute to hirelings. It is asked can tho laborer afford to work for thirteen dollars 7 We have nothing to do with this. Is it in our means to psy more ? Laboring men's wages heap up tho exhoroitant prices in cloth ing and manufactured goods. Manufacturer* regulate their tariffs by it. Let ns stop shipping our products* If the sheriff pounces on a neighboring fanner, lot us combine to relieve him. The greatest blessing this northwest ever reaped was from the great frost of 1861—half a crop is better than s whole one. A western journal eommmenting upon the foolish policy thus proposed, says there is reason to believe that many farmers will act upon it, and hence It is apprehended that the west will grow a smaller crop this year than last. Ic-is anticipated that the heavy de mand for laborers to go south will keep up their wages till after the planting and bar vesting seasons; which is greatly deplored render the prevalent impression that the Bouth will be clamorous for the prodncis of the west, becanse all their avail able labT will be devoted to profitable cot- on growing. We direct attention to this matter with the hope that it will suggest to the minds ot southern planters the per tinent inquiry, whether, in view of the fu ture as indicated by the incident to which we have referred, it will be wise in them to plant heavy crops of cotton and but little graia ; with the vain expectation that wes tern products will be as abundant as usual this fall. It seems to us that this develop ment in the west should not be without its influence upon the future policy of planters, as the plan of an almost exclusive cotton crop will certainly put them at the mercy of the markets. Whereas, if they wisely pro vide ns far as possible, by the liberal sowing cf grain, for their general wants much incoD - venienco and suffering wiil be prevented. It is folly for the western farmers or south ern planters to complain of the wages of their laborers—that is a matter which will adjust itself in due time, by the law of sup ply and demand. If they wish to talk to eome purpose, let them instruct their Cou- ‘gressoign to reduce the present exorbitant tariff. That would be an immediate relief to both laborers and employers, by cheapening the manufactured goods they are compelled to use. THE GRAND OPERA. v It is some years since Savannah has been favored with so Italian Opera. The war has deprived us of those amusements that ad dress themselves to the imagination and to the most refined of our senses. The Italian Opera is pre-eminently entitled to this dis tinction. The ear, eye and the intellect— the artB of the musician, the painter and the past— unite their attractions, to winour ad miration. What can boa more striking ex emplification of this fact than a well con structed drama, in which incident, character, passion combine to fascinate the senses while they touch the heart in which the genius of the composer, the talent of the artist, the strains of poetry and melody are made sub servient to the general effect. A» the opera will be brought out with every appliance that can render it effective on Monday next, the 6th Instant, a sketch of the peculiarities of the several artists will assist the'Judgment In deciding their adapl- edness to the role in which they are to ap pear. The troupe numbers over forty persons. The chortle and orchestra are such as to give M’lle. Patti Strakosch is one of those mu sical celebrities which but to name excites the most pleasant recollections. The writer of this notice beam a lively iinpressiou of her captivating powers, hikying witnessed : raauy of her performances in Charleston some years since when she was quite young. The advantages of instruction have given discipline and polish to her natural powers. Her superiority over every other compeiitor iu the great Gipsy scene in the second act of Trovatore is undisputed, and places her on an equality with Rachel In dramatic power. Signors Maccaferri and Errani have long since earned their laurels in Europe. The former is said to be the only living v tenor, be sides Timberlik, who can sing the famous “Do de PetKV’ Signor Errani, the Tenor dt Grazia, combines a mellow Voice with a handsome countenance. Signor Mancusi, baritone, needs no eulogium, he has a voice of great power and richness. Signor Mara, the other baritone, bat won the plaudits of New York audiences, repeatedly. Signor Susina shows a brilliant record in musical history. His artistic ability, both as au ac tor and singer, is beyond question. Herr Graff, basso buffo of the company, has scarcely a parallel on any stage. Here are three prima donnas, each eminent in her special province; two tenors, both excellent; two baritones, varied in their powers, and two bassos, each distinguished. Signor Rosa is one of the best musical conductors and directors which has ever vis ited this country- The Repertoire is varied, comprising pieces of established celebrity, among which are Ernani, Martha, II Trova tore, Faust, Norma and Don Giovanni. The whole is under tbe general manage ment ot that popular (impressario) Max Strakosch, who has spared neither trouble nor expense, and who will present to tbe citizens of Savannah an array of talent with out parallel in the annals ot our stage. THE TRIAL OF ADMIRAL SEMJHE8. A letter has been received in this city from a gentleman in Washington, which states there is no truth in the report that a naval court had been ordered for the trial of Mr. Sernmes, now confined at the Washington Navy Yard. It ia the intention of the Gov ernment to have that gentleman tried, but there are so many important points involved in the specifications against him, that the authorities are unwilling to take any steps in the matter without giving all the most care ful consideration. The charges and specifi cations on which it is proposed to try Mr. Sernmes are now held under advisement by the Attorney Gene r al; and it is intimated that a conviction on them “would establish a precedent Which might operate to the det riment of the country in future wars.” It is □ot unlikely that this hesitation to bring on tbe trial has been induced by the very able lHEiit,-\Villi!U‘iiak ifdtjh published, is regiirdi'3 by many as ooe of the clearest and most logi cal legal papers ever prepared- It is not generally kuown, perhaps, that the Admiral is a thorough bred lawyer, and that during a brief career as a member of the Bar iu Ala bama, he acquired much distinction for pro fessional learning and forensic eloquence. His frequent appearance as Judge Advocate before naval courts-martial prior to his re tirement from the United States service, and his assignment to the command of the first Confederate man-of-war, the “Sumter,” at test his remarkable familiarity also with naval jurisprudence and international law. tribute of respect.

Savannah, March 1st, 1866. j At a regular communication of this Lodge, held this veiling, a committee appointed for the purpose of preparing suitable resolutions in rospect to our deceaa- ed Brother P. 8.

Thus placing my profits alone between the manufacturer mid importer's prices, and the cost of my patron’s goods. I think my profit is much less than the job ber could affoid to work for.
