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. - wmmm 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. — .— ann— 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. >——-»• i 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- Just Received at Estjll’s.—The Galaxy, for November; Allantic Monthly, for Novem- bet ; UarpeFs Monthly, for Ifovejnbar; Melro- PpUtan Record ; Catholic World, for November; X UT Young Folks, for'Norember; Every Salur- ®“iU.

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. The Lutheran Church.—Rev. D. M. GH- Hort, the beloved pastor of the above church, “J 8 returned to his charge, after an absence 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 (Ala,) - A T ews, whV taking advantage qf the 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 that it is one of the best weeklies in the South and is always well edited and neatly which it “ " patrons. ir' and its At the annual meeting of the Worlriimmen’s Mutual Loan Association, on the 20th mst., the following gentlemen were elected officers for tile ensuing year: •’'.' * ' - Robert D.

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. Nobody hart 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 quirer. ' Information Wanted.—Any information in regard to Francis M. Hood, a Confederate soldier who was captured near Atlanta, Geor gia, and carried to Comp Chase, will be thank fully received by his. father, at Lafayette, Alabama, post office. * The missing man is about five feet nine inches high, fair complex- tion, bine eyes, light hair, and abont twenty- five years of age. .
