CHILL WINTER
still lingers, reluctant to resign his frigid reign, and,
"with the aid of furious gales, gusts, squalls and flur
ries, shows us that he is determined to get rid of all
the little remnants of odd stowstonns he has on hand.
We have had snow, sleet, hail, rain, diizzle, fog, east
winds, sunshine (in very infinitessimai quantities)
and an atmosphere raw as an uncooked^beefsteak. The
ladies are anxiously awaiting the advent of “ vernal
spring," which is supposed to be about due, in order
that their new bonnets (for our milliners have had
their "spring opening,") may obtain an airing. An
agricultural Diogenes has been hunting around our
suburbs with a Fresnel lanthorn in search of a green
grass plot. That “early robin" has not made "nary"
an appearance yet—no one blames him—he would
have diptheria in lesB than ten minutes.
a matutinal visit
of our Health Commissioners at 5 a. m., to that flltby
excrescence yedpt Washington Market, developed the
fact that within a few rods of the thousands of beef,
mutton, and hog carcasses, was dumped some five thou
sand cords of manure. This discovery, added to that o*
a large number of carcasses of "Bob Veal" impressed
them with the necessity of adopting measures to pre
vent such an admixture of bad elements in the at
mosphere in future, which fact exercises our fat but
dirty butchers.
THE METEOR CASE
has attracted considerable attention here, as, whether
true or not, the general belief among our community
is that she was intended for a privateer under the
Chilian or Peruvian flag. The question has assumed
the more importance as indicating the course likely to
be pursued by our government and courts in future
like enterprises, as it is well known many of onr
prominent men have a leaning towards assisting an
other revolutionary movement as retaliatory upon a
government on the other side of the pond which al
lowed its neutrality laws to be stretched far enough
during the recent war to enable vessels to leave its
ports to hoist an unrecognized flag. There is not the
least doubt, if the opportunity occurs, that quite a
number of vessels will hoist the Fenian flag, whoso
hulls were built in this vicinity, and the decision in
this Meteor case is looked for; with interest, as future
movements will be largely governed by it by those in
terested. The statement is made in certain quarters
that a couple of powerful vessels have been purchased
and will find but little difficulty in getting to sea from
an obscure harbor on Long Island!

vicinity are also noticeable. This appears very un
usual at this season of the year, as generally our piers
and commercial avenues at this season are very lively.
The cause is said to be the almost total suspension of
purchases by our merchants, iu consequence of the
unsettled and uncertain state of all the markets, the
opinion obtaining that gold will depreciate still further
on the descending scale, thus bringing down the value
of all goods and merchandize. The southern trade
is at a stand still, and were it not for the fact that the
steamers plying to Southern Atlantic ports have been
unable to carry all the freight lately offered, they
would now be obliged to run with hardly cargo enough
to answer for ballast. It is not considered, however,
that this state of affairs will last long, but our mer
chants just now are, like un eminent statesman not
long since, in a “tewtative” mood.

To the Editor of the Savannah Herald :
It is astonishing to see the apathy manifested in the

this city has either recommended or condemned it.
ratification l>y the people. It is certainly a matter of
some consideration to the pnblic, and why thus slum
ber over the enterprise ? The Advertiser of this city
came out on the 20th inst., in a few remarks, stating
that street rail roads have been in operation in all the
principal Northern and Western cities, and since the
close of the war are being introduced into the South,
and there leaves it to sink or swim, according to the
management of a few politicians, who, I understand
are working an under current to defeat thiB invalua
ble enterprise.
The draymen and persons interested in street
wagons constitute quite a political influence, when
induced all to vote one way. The political tricksters
of this city can bring to bear an influence to unite the
above parties to their own (tricksters) political ad
vantage by representing the enterprise a disadvantage
to them, whether it is or not. The capital is sufficient
to induce them to make the effort to gain their point,
if possible, at the exclusion of all improvements of the
city.
A few years since similar objections were made to
proposed improvements, and their objections suc
ceeded from the fact that no one took Interest enough
in the welfare of the city to explain the advantages or
disadvantages attending the enterprise..
I hope financial talent will not be deterred by anv
political fear,from coming out and giving a foil exnls.

at Staten Island are whetting their knives and getting
their torches ready again for another quarantine de
struction. They are fearfully exercised over a report,
which apparently has some foundation, that the new
Board of Health of the State contemplate establishing
s Quarantine Hospital for cholera patients on their
garden island near Fort Richmond. Meetings have
been and are being held, and various measures are
being proposed to stave it oil', and they argue with con
siderable force, too, that Sandy Hook would be far bet
ter for not only the unfortunate patients, but would be
a much better locality from which the distemper could
not be easily conveyed to other places, should the at
tempt to establish a cholera hospital on the island be
persisted in, there will be a repetition of the burning
of 1857.'

Labor and business may be somewhat changed in
some instances through the introduction of an im
provement of this kind, from' the fact, that enterprises
of this character create a demand for labor and the
demand increases the prices. For instance, Wa man
could get more per day for driving a'street car, where
he is protected from the weather, then he could make
with his dray or wagon, subjected to the most labori
ous work and exposure, is it not reasonable to sup
pose he would make the change ?
It is quite a mistake to suppose that the introduc
tion of machinery diminishes the demand for labor
Machinery cannot be worked without manual assis
tance. It is true the work is rather different, and, as
a general thing, less laborious and -moke remunerative
to the operatives, which cannot be an objection to the
change.
Furthermore, one improvement generally leads do
others, which enhances the value of property through-
out the city. The increase of the value of property
causes owners to add improvements to dilapidated
buildings, and these improvements add to the taxable
property of the city. The railroad afone will contri
bute largelydo the treasury of the city in Thc-vriiyof
taxes, all ot which tends to relieve the present high
tax of our city. “
Street railroads have worked advantsgeously to other
cities, and why not to Savannah? If there is any dis
advantage growing out of the acceptance of this road,
it will be to the company granted the privilege of con
structing it. The road will not pay perhaps for two or
three years, but it will eventually pay the company and
be an ornament as well as a convenience and benefit to
the city if judiciously managed. A Citizen.

A Disgraceful Spectacle.—The Senate of the
U. S , which ought to be a body distinguished for its
diguity and high sense of propriety, has fur Secretary
a political demagogue who daily abuses tbe President
of the United States in the coarsest language. This
man, it is well known, is the editor of, or controls,
two newspapers—one in Washington and one in Phila
delphia. He makes these the channels tlirough which
he vents his spleen upon the chief of the nation.
This is a sad commentary on the times, and shows the
demoralizing revolutionary spirit that is abroad, and
that has even penetrated the Senate. It is a step to
ward the orgies of the Jacobin Convention of France.
The appointment of this man to the respectable.po
sition of Secretary of the Senate, looking at his his
tory, was remarkable, and showed how low that great
body had fallen from its former high character. But
it is positively disgraceful for the Senate to retain him,
now that he is daily pouring out coarse abuse upon
the President. A decent respectrfixim one co-ordinate
branch of the government is due to another.
This is the way to make government respectable in
the eyes of the people. But for the Senate—that dig
nified body of the nation, which is a part of the exe
cutive, and holds a particular relation to the President
—to tolerate such conduct is inexcusable. The Senate,
out of respect to itself as well as to the President,
ought to dismiss him at once. Nursed into politiqal
existence by that weak and scheming old copperhead
politician Buchanan, whom he betrayed, he has be
longed to all parties, and is ready to belong to any
party to serve bis ends. It is high time such northern
demagogues were squelched, as the southern ones
have been. Let these northern Marplot politicians be
put down, as their old, miachievoilB companions of
the South have been. At leaat, let not the Senate of
the United States keep this one, the wont of all, in the
high office he holds. If he wiUfullow his mischievpus

instincts and throw his venom upon the chief of the
nation, let not the Senate sanction it by any connec
tion with him.
The allusion to Southern demagogues may serve to
point the moral (md adorn the tale of the Herald, but
the insinuation that the South has ever produced a
public man comparable with John W. Forney, is an
aspersion which the Herald should lose no time in re
tracting.
The American Cotton Planter.
This able agricultural magazine haa been revived
and is now issued in monthly numbers, sa formerly
containing thirty-two pages each, handsomely covered
The -Cotton Planter” will be devoted principally to
the planting interest of the Southern States, and
will devote much attention to the subject of a well or
ganized system of labor for plantation purposes. The
editor, Dr. N. B. Cloud, says:
“In resuming the publication of the “Cotton Plant
er” we are still actuated by the motives which im-
pressed us in its organization, fourteen years ago—the
importance of combining science and improvement
with our agriculturaL operations. If possible it is
even more necessary- nffw than ever. It is-true before
the war the negro and the overseer were, the main
reliance—and they did bring present profit, but at a
most ruinous waste to the soil of onr country. These
are uow “institutions” of the past. Our true interest
for the future, lice in the channel of fostering and
building up our agriculture upon an entirely different
and an improved basis. We must now combine farm
ing with planting, and foster grazing with stock rais
ing, in our country, that we may resuscitate and ‘im
prove the wide waste of exhausted soil in our land.
We must also encourage and promote, by all proper
means, manufacturing and the mechanic arts, for
which our country affordB every natural facility. The
columns of the “Cotton Plauter and Soil” will not
only be always open for communications on all Q'—y
subjects—even urgently inviting such—bttt will b* the
staunch ana uncompromising advocate of their (•tra
duction and ’encouragement In our system of indus-
trial economy."

—The London Times, after some observations on the
progress and result of the war, proceeds to say :
The triumph of the North became the triumph of
abolition. It has needed all the firmness and good
sense of Mr. Johnson to mitigate tbe consequences of
this triumph, and his attitude on the negro suffrage
question has, of course, Increased his unpopularity
with the advanced Republicans. This party, led iu
Congress by Mr. Stevens, has already come to an open
breach with him, and tbe President is carrying on the
great work of restoration in the lace of a determined
and unscrupulous opposition. The result is the
gradual development of a new “Administration par-
ty,” pledged to stand by the moderate policy of Mr.
Johnson—a policy which, carried ont with great moral
courage and honesty of purpose, has won for him the
respect and sympathy of this country. We have had
little experience of civil war, and it Is possible we may
noc have made allowance enough for its exigencies ;
but we know something of political, social, and finan
cial difficulties, and can appreciate that process of re
construction which involves them all on the grandest
scale and iu the most complicated form.
