Disgraceful and Biorous" Conduct of V.
S. Soldiers.—Yesterday afternoon a party of
three or four United States soldiers, members
of the garrison at this post, while very much
intoxicated, conducted themselves in an out
rageous and disgraceful manner.' They -were
on’Drayton street, in- the Tear of the Theatre,
and cvrey person who passed along the street
was interfered with and maltreated by them."
Several colored women were knocked down
and beaten by these roughs in uniform, and
their conduct created a great excitement in
the neighborhood. The attention of Alder
men Brigham and Hunter was attracted - to
their proceedings, and a detachment of police
was sent for. Sergeant Moraii, with a detach
ment of eight men, soon arrived upon the
ground, but the fellows, with one exception,
had been taken to the United States Bar
racks by a sergeant-and Some of-the men of
their company. Policeman Snllivan arrested
one of the party, named James Biley, and
took him to the Barracks. He fought with
Sullivan during the whole distance, and it
was with difficulty that he was putin confine
ment
Sergeant Moran went to the United States
Barracks and inquired after the men who had
teen taken there. The Sergeant of the com
pany stated that they had not been put in the
guard house, but were in their regular quar
ters, and the affair had* not been reported to
the officer in command; so that the prospect
is that these fellows will escape the punish
ment their conduct so justly deserved.
Biley will be brought up before the Mayor’s
Court this morning. "We trust that hq.will
be taught that there "is such a thing as’ civil
law, uud that United States soldiers cannot
with impunity disturb the peace of this city,
and beat and maltreat or interfere with any
of its citizens.

Thuee Attempts to Commit Burglary.—
Sunday night last an attempt was made by
burglars to enter a house situated on Chet-
ham Square, but the burglars - left, without
having accomplished their purpose. On
Tuesday night they returned and commenced
work upon a lower window. They were
frigate nod off, and came back again the same
night and resumed their operations. They
made such a noise hammering as to awaken
the neighbors, and were again forced to
quit J - '
The police force - of the city is not large
enough to property protect it The men have
suoh large ‘^beats’- that thieves can operate
with safety at one’ ( end while they (the police
men) are traveling to the other. At least
twenty or twenty-five additional men should
be added to the present force.
Cruelty to a House.—Yesterday a coun
tryman, who gave his name as N. Smith, was
arrested for cruelly beating his horse. The
affair occurred just by Franklin Square, and
was of such a shameful character that the at
tention of policeman Ash was attracted, and
be took Smith to the Barracks.
ThiB is the first arrest for cruelty to ani
mals that has occurred under our observation
in Savannah. We think that other members
of the police force might well follow Ash’s
example, as occasion frequently occurs when
drivers ill-treat their horses most shamefully.
The negro draymen, who travel so furiously
np the Bay in the evening, lashing their
mules all the way, and endangering the lives
of citizens, ought to be attended to.
The case of Smith will come before the
Mayor this morning.
The Boat Race.—The boat race, op the
river, on Saturday afternoon next, promises
to be a right lively affair. It will be between
the Savannah and Victoria Clnbs, with their
boats, King Cotton and Nellie—a mile dash.
The Savannah Club, we understand, intend
challenging a boat’s crew from any ship in
port torn pull against them, after the above
race shall have been decided. Should their
challenge be accepted it will increase the in
terest and sport of the occasion. It ought to
he a right good tug—between skilled ama
teurs and regular sailors.
Personal.—We had a visit yesterday from
our old friend, CoL B. L. Gentry, of Augusta,
a member of the firm of S. D. Linton & Co.,
warehouse and commission merchants of that
city, whose card will he found in Our adver
tising columns. Besides attending to this
business, Col. G. is a newspaper man of con
siderable repute, and, when traveling, repre
sents that able paper,"the Augusta“Cbnrfftu-
rionalist, and the Savannah Morning News.
He is on a brief business visit here and leaves
-for Charleston thin morning.
Burglary.—Hellsman’s Drug Stobe Rou
sed On Tuesday nightlast, Hillsttan’s drug
store, on the-comer of Broughton and -Bull
streets, was entered by burglars. The scala
wags got in by forcing open the rear door of
4s store on Broughton street lone. They
stole forty dollars in money, all the segars in
the show case, and a quantity of liqpors.
The burglary must have been committed
by parties who were acquainted with tho
premises, as the liquor was kept where stran
gers could not easily have found it.
PuGtusno Encounter on ume Bay.—Yes
terday afternoon two sailors had - a pugilistic
encounter on the Bay, near Abercom street.
They fought for a long time, -without, int
luption, until they became tired of the i
Pud stopped. No policemen were about,
kud citizens gathered round to look on, but
did not attempt to separate the men. Whis
key was the cause of the trouble.

Fatal .Accident on Bourn the Steamer
City Point.—The steamer City Point, Capt.
McNelty, arrived at Tybee, from Charleston,
before daylight yesterday, and anchored
there, waiting-to come up on the morning
tide. When the tide was favorable prepara
tions were made " for a start, and the second
mate, Mr. James Petty, went forward to su
perintend the weighing of the anchor. The
men hauled in for awhile,, and then stopped
for awhile. Mr. Petty stepped upon the coil
of cable upon deck, and while he was there.
Capt. McNelty signalled for the engineer to
work his engine and move the boat forward a
little, so as to render the hauling, in of the
anchor on easier task. The Captain did not
notice where Mr. Petty was standing, nor did
the latter hear the signal to the engineer,
and still retained his position on the cable.
As: the boat moved the cable was given a
jerk, and it caught and coiled around Mr.
Petty’s right leg, .crushing and mangling- it in
a fearful manner. He was rescued from bis
horrible position as qnickly as possible, and
every attention was paid to him on board the
boat to try. and alleviate bis sufferings. On
arriving at this cityDrs. Kollock and Bead
were sent for, as it was thought that amputa
tion might save the life of the injured man;
but the blood bad flowed so rapidly from the
'-crushed limb, that he was beyond all hope
when the physicians arrived. He retained
consciousness np to the time of his death,
which occurred about twelve o’clock.
Capt McNelty, with his well-known kind
ness. of "heart, was indefatigable in his efforts
to render Petty every possible assistance, and
attended him as though it were bis own
brother. When the unfortunate man’s suffer
ings were ended by death, the Captain had
bi« remains enclosed in an air-tight metallic
casket and they will be sent to Charleston,
where deceased resided, by the steamer Fannie,
which sails to-day.
.Mr. Petty was a young, of abont twenty-
four or twenty-five years of age. He was a
good sailor, and had only held the position of
second Mute of the City Point for a few weeks,
dnring which time he gained the respect and
esteem of officers and men. He wus unmar
ried; but a widowed mother and two sisters
are left to mourn his loss.

Semi-Annual Parade of the Macon Fhue
Department.—The . fraternal feelings which
exist between the fire companies of Sa
vannah and those of onr sister cities of
Georgia, will, we doubt not, make it a matter
of interest to the “boys in red” of Savannah,
to hear about the semi-annual parade of the
Macon Fire Department. ,
The Journal <r Messenger says the parade is
more for the purposes of utility than display
—the object being to have a test of hose, ex
amination of machines, &c. Three hand en
gines, one steamer, and one hook and ladder
company were in procession, which passed
through the principal streets of the city. A
test of engines and hose was then had, but the
Macon papers give no figures, and say nothing
abont the distances that water was thrown by
the engines.
Mechanics’ “hand engine played well, and
passed inspection admirably. The Telegraph
says it cannot be beaten by any hand engine
in the State.
The Ocmulgee hand engine worked well,
but its hose burst in so many places that she
could not be thoroughly tested.
The Young America also passed in first
rate order.
The Telegraph says:
Then came the steam engine, C. A. Nut
ting, of Protection Fire Company, No. 1,
Chas. K. Emmell, Foreman. Here was seen
the difference between steam" and human-
muscle. Steam was too -much for muscle,
but it would take steam to beat such muscle
as cau be found in all our fire companies.
The Nutting, as usual, worked admirably and
threw single and double streams of water to
a great height and distance. It is, indeed, a
splendid machine, is well manned and is a
credit to the city.
We are sorry that the Macon papers do not
give the greatest distance to which water was
played by the Nutting. On the occasion of
onr last annual parade,’ the Protection Com
pany was one of the invited guests, and it
was expected that their steamer would carry
off the prize on that day; but, owing to the
bursting of hose, &c., she did not give a fair
trial of her powers. Our firemen would have
been glad to know what distance she played
with good hose and under favorable circum-

Bankruptcy.—In the Clerk's office of the
H. 8. District Court, Southern "District of
Georgia, yesterday, a petition to he adjudged
a bankrupt* "was Hied by William E. Potts, of
Forsyth, A. Di .Hammond, attorney.
A petition for final discharge from H. & N.
“olomons, of Augusta, was also filed.

Hort, the beloved pastor of the above church,

of some weeks, caused by a call to -bis former
■home, occasioned by his father's death.
The Courts of the Eastern Circuits.—It
may be of interest to many of our readers to
know the date upon which the fall and winter
terms of the Superior Courts of the counties,
composing this (Eastern) District commence.
Montgomery county comes first. The 'fall
term of its Superior Court begins to-day. As
the old adage expresses it, this is.“a short
horse and soon curied.”
Tatnall county is next on the list. The tall
term commences on the fourth Monday in
October; which will be Monday of next week,
the 26th inBt
Bulloch county is the third. Court meets
on the Friday after the fourth Monday in Oc
tober; which will be Friday of next week,
the 30th inst
Effingham county follows. Court com
mences on the second Monday after the
fourth Monday in October; which will be
Monday, November 9th.
The next is McIntosh county. Court be
gins on Thursday after the fourth Monday in
November; which will be Thursday, Novem
ber 26th.
Liberty county follows on the list. The
fall term of its Superior Court will commence
on the Monday after the fourth Monday in
November, which will be Monday, November
30th.
Bryan county Superior Court is held next,
commencing on the second Monday after the
fourth Monday in November, which will be
Monday, December 7th,
Chatham connty comes last. The next ses
sion of the Superior Court will commence on
the second Monday in January, which will be
the eleventh day of the month.
Bishop Vebot.—Bishop Verot is one of
the greatest eclesiastical workers, in this or
in any other country. His labors to extend
the Gospel of Christ, appear to us to be very
great One day we hear of him "in Savannah;
a'day or two after we pick up, a country pa
per, -and find that he is off at another end of
hm’diocese; and the duties of his high
office seem to keep him continually journey
ing about from place ta place, with but little
rest or intermission.
We notice by the St Augustine (Fla.) Ex-
aminer, of the 17th, that the Bishop, after a
trip to the North, had just returned to that
place, bringing with him priests and sisters
to satisfv the increasing wants of his diocese.
From Providence. R. I, the Bishop brought
three sisters, who, the Examiner says have
already commenced instructing the young
pupils at St Mary’s Academy—one of the
best and cheapest educational institutions in
the South. It has been in existence for ten
years, and has earned the reputation of being
a first class establishment, for the education
of young ladies. Board, tuition, bed, be d-
ding,washing and mending'for the year, are
furnished for only two hundred dollars.
The Bishop is working hard for the suc
cess and prosperity of this school; and pro-
poses to start one fox the education of young
men, at St. Augustine, next year, to he con
ducted by the Christian Brothers.
The Eufaula News.—We had the pleasure
of meeting yesterday, .Mr. John Black, the
able editor and proprietor of the Eufaula

Bainbridge connection of the Gulf Baiload,
is on a flying visit to the seaport of Georgia.
Eniaula does considerable business with us,
and onr merchants should avail themselves
of Mr. Black’s visit to our city to place
themselves before the people of his section,
which embraces the richest part of Alabama
and Georgia; and we can say for the Hews

Descriptive Sketch ofYamacbaw. By John
ny Gusegbese.—Yamacraw is a classic city of
Georgia. It is bounded on the north by the
Savannah river, south by Robertsville, west
by the Ogeeeliee canal, and east by every
thing that comes in its way. - -
It was found many years ago by Oglethorpe,
and foundered in ’65 by Sherman’s bummers.
Oglethorpe introduced the blessings of
civilization and whiskey to the people of
Yamacraw. Sherman introduced the bless
ings of liberty and internal revenue stamps.
Whiskey has remained a permanent insti
tution among its inhabitants to the present
day; hut large numbers of Yamacrawians
have discarded the eivilzation business.
Yamacraw' is a fertile place. Rows are raised
there in abundance, and of great dimensions.
During the late war the Yamacrawians fought
nobly. One of its principal products is ivorv.
Large quantities are raised annually. Wool
is also produced until the supply is greater
■than the demand. '
Yamacraw is not renowned-for. the archi
tectural beauty of its cottages. They were
erected more for use than to be looked at
When goats were, first introduced into
Yamacrawis not accurately known, but they'
have become an important feature of the
place. Its most prominent feature is Pepper
Hill, which is a great place. Everybody lives
together there, and people mix themselves np
like cheap boarding-house hash.
With patriotic devotion to their native soil,
the people insist upon Yamacraw for the
Yamacrawians, and stubbornly resist the ad
vances of soap and water civilization,
Yamacraw is rather looked down npon by
people who live in houses which overtop it,
but they don’t appreciate its merits.
It is a good place to live in for t
like it.
Its population is large and variegated. It
contains all hues under the sun—or the
moon. - ..
It is mnch appreciated by reporters, to
whom it furnishes many an item.
The Grecian bend has long prevailed there,
as acquired by the “leaders of ton” of
. nacraw by long practice at the wash-tub.
yhicb is an honorable and lucrative em
ployment, not to be sneezed at.
Yamacraw w’as invented many- centuries
ago by an old Indian of that name, whose de
scendants peopled it. The "Ogeeeliee Canal
was not then built, nor the Central Railroad
in operation. -
The noble red men have disappeared, and
their place is occupied by the black man.
Who thrives ana grows fiit npon hog and
hominy.
If he hath none of his own he taketh..his
neighbor’s. And eats it with a relish.
This method of living is only practised by
a portion of tiie race.
Of" the same class we may say—He sleepeth
by day and he issueth forth byr night.
And frequently falls into the hands of the
policeman, and is sent to jail.
Where he enjoys a season of repose at the
pnblic expense.
He hath become a citizen, and os a votist
he is a success. He depbsiteth his ballot
with marvelona frequency.
And changeth his title to suit the occasion.
He doeth this for a mule and forty acres of
land, which he doth not receive.
He betieyetU in Bradley, and is fond of Rice.
Savannah is an important adjunct of Yama
craw; but the people of the latter do not con
sider the former much of a place; and vica
versa.
Which meaneth contraiywiae.
For the meaning of which search the last
book of Webster.
The fact that Oolnmbns traveled westward
led to the discovery of Yamacraw. The trav
eler of the present day by journeying west and
sonth may discover Columbus.
And he who wants to know more of Yama
craw is referred to Horace Greeley’s history of
the late civil war.
Madame Parefa—Rosa, the celebrated
prima dona, on her return from California to
New York next month, will start on a tour of
concerts and oratorios through the West,
Sonth, East and the Canadas, before her de
parture next summer for Europe. She will
be accompanied by Carl Rosa, the eminent
violinist, and Mr. J. Levy, the great comet
and piston soloist.
We hope that Madame Parepa^Rosa will
visit Savannah. Our people would .gladly
welcome a lady whose musical talent has
charmed all other parts of the country. The
recognized great artists, in the profession of
music shonld visit us oftener. While they
have made tours through the Eastern, Mid
dle and Western States, tho Sonth has been
entirely neglected. They surely could not
wish for larger, better or more appreciative
audiences than always greet those who do
come to Savannh, and our people would be
glad of the opportunity of witnessing a first
class entertainment, or hearing the ravishing
music of talented artists.
Challenge.—With a view to add to the va
riety and interest of the aquatic sports of
Saturday, we are authorized to say that the
captain of the ship Star of the West, in be
half of liis crew, challenges any ship now in
port to a trial of speed of ship’s boats for one
mile, to be pulled by four or five oars. The
captain’s banter is open until 12 o’clock,
noon, on Saturday next—the race to take
place on Saturday at three o’clock P. M
The Star of the West lies at Exchange Wharf.
We trust that her crew may find a worthy
competitor. Ship boats are more for; service
than speed, but sailors know bow to piill ’em.
Runaway.—Yesterday morning two moles,
attached to a wagon, the team belonging to
Wilson A Dehoney, took it info their heads, to
ran away. They dashed up Bryan street,
and at Johnson square they collided with the
buggy" belonging to Martin Henges, which
was standing in the street, over by the fence
of the square. Quite a smash-up resulted,
and the males appeared satisfied with the
damage they had done, and went no farther.

Knickerbocker.—We take pleasure in say
ing that “The Knickerbocker Life Insurance
Company,” .through -their agent, Mr. T. G.
Pond, on yesterday paid the policy on the
life of p.ur highly-esteemed fellow-citizen M.
P. Ellis, Esq. The history of their prompt
ness and liberality ted us confidently to ex
pect this, as soon as we heard he was insured
with them. They have paid $72,500 from the
Savannah office alone sinoe October, 1866.
They also paid all their Southern losses that
occurred during onr late war.—Columbus En
