ACCOUNTS.
■ The accounts were audited and Council adjourned.
Change of Steamers.—We understand that the^
steamer H. M. Cool will resume her place on the route
to Darien. The I. P.’Smith which was brought out to
run upon that route, made one trip last week, and
was found unsuited to the purposes of the trade. The
route, while valuable iu its way, does not pay well
enough to have so large and fine a steamer as the
Smith run the risks aud dangers attending trips in
that section. The Smith was too large to be rim upon
the line without danger; and it was therefore found
necessaryto withdraw her, and place the Cool on
the route again. The Smith will be sent back North.
We regret to lose the services of one of the . finest
steamers ever brought out here; but it shows pru
dence and carefulness on the part of the management
of the line, that they are unwilling to run dangerous
risks. •
Readings by Hon. A. H. Stephens.—The Hon.
Alex. H. Stephens will give two public readings, in
this city, at St. Andrew’s Hall, on the evenings of
Tuesday, December 1, and Thursday, December 3;

ond, in aid of the Hebrew Collegiate Institute. Tickets

yond a doubt, to hear Georgia's great statesman ex

by the gentlemen entering them. A large number of
animals have been entered for the contest, and the
sport will be of the liveliest description. Every per

been opened through that section of the city west of
West Broad street, between Bryan and Joachim streats,
through the Gibbon's property. The new thorough

St. Catharine^ Pay.—Yesterday, the 25th of No
vember; waf* the day assigned in ther Calendar to the
honoring of the memory of 8k Catharine. This Saint
lived in the third century, and was put to death by
Maxentius, upon a wheel. This species of martyr
dom gave name to a popular fire-work, which, fora
long time, was known as a “ Catharine wheeL” Her
piety aud erudition were such, that,. fob a long time
after her martyrdom, she was regarded as the patron
ess of Christian philosophy.
Sk Catharine ia also the patroness of unmarried la
dies. Iu olden times young women used to make
merry together on her day, or go a “ Cather'aning,”
a s they called it; and in some parts of England,
where rustic fashions are yet in vogue, the custom is
still kept up. In Ireland the girls kept Catharine’s
day that they might get good husbands ; aud the wo
men in the hope that the good Saint would provide
them with better ones. In one of the windows of
West Wickham Church, Kenk there is a fine represen
tation of, Sk Catharine in stained glass. Engravings
and pictures of her are also numerous.
The Ramie Plant.—Messrs,' L. J. Guilmartin &
Co., agents for the sale of Ramie plants in this sec
tion, yesterday showed us some samples of Ramie,
from this year's crop in Louisiana. It is a beautiful
article, resembles' the wool of the Cashmere goat,
is finQ, and at the same time stronger than hemp.
The Raifiiejstalks are cut from the afield and,ginned,
and the article is then ready for the market, in the
condition of the samples shown us. Planters would
do well to call,upon these gentlemen and examine the
Hamid. They may find it to their interest to cultivate
it in place of cotton; Jt being much easier to raise, is
not affected by drouth or flood, and brings a h gh
price, when sold. Three or four crops can be raised
during the year, and it has -many other advantages
which have been commented upon heretofore.
A Circular from the “Spotted Horse.”—Old
Bryant, J. E., the “spotted, horse” of, the Radius,
who ia Chairman of the Rave-tlie-vote-of-the-State
thrown-out Committee have Befit his circulars to this
city. He wants to know whether any Republican was
“cussed on election day; whether any vote was in
fluenced by a threat of toss of employment; whether
any darkie was pushed or shoved; and whether any
vote was excluded by reason of a person’s not having
paid their poll tax of 1867.
Old Bryant is of an inquiring disposition, and it is
a pity that his curiosity was not satisfied. But his
circular was consigned to the flames, and treated with
contempt; and although it was reduced'to ashes, the
scent of the nigger “hung round it still. ”

wounds fa-
_—.ini lying on
the floor; he was very weak, and fainted when lifted
up. He, expectorated blood. Attended him profes
sionally, with Dr. Itead, until the 12th of November,.
when he died, frour mie effects of the gun shot wound.
James McCarthy, sxcorn, examined and saith:—On
Thursday, the 5th November, 1868, I was sitting on
the stoop of llossiter’s house, after dinner, smoking
my pipe; Morgan and two policemen were walking
past the house; Morgan said to Shea: Do you stop at
this contemptible house ? Rossiter heard the words,
and he ran out of his house and got on his stoop, and
said to Morgan, If you come back h - re I will knock
your big head off. you son of a bitch. I told Rossiter
to go in and get his dinner. He went into his house,
I left the stoop to go after my work. I was within
eight or ten paces on East Brood street, from the cor
ner of State street, when I heard the report of a pistol
or gun. I ran back; Mr. Rossiter told me he had been
shot by Morgan. Both- Morgan and Rossiter were
bleeding. There were from thirty to fifty people
present. Rossiter broke through the crowd aud
jumped upon Morgan. I saw no knife or pistol in
Ressiter’s hand, or with him. Saw no pistol or knife
in the hand of Morgan. I saw blood on the face of the
prisoner, and Rossiter was bleeding at the mouth and
Lost,—Dan Castello has lost one of his best and
m6st intimate friends, whom he describes as a newly
married man, and whose name, if it hasn’t been
changed by the Church or Legislature, is that of a well
known 'merchant of Savannah. Dan has been here one
week, and no tidings of his lost friend have reached
him.
The friend who would tell us our faults to our face;
Bnt. aye, frae onr foes in onr absence defends us,
Lee’s me on sic hearts. O' life's pack, he’s the ace;
Who scorns to disown us, when naebody owns us.
The finder will be rewarded by Dan, for information
of his friend, , .
Goods fob the Coming Holidays—-The attention
of our readers is called to the advertisement of R. M.
Hunt in another colnmn. Mr. Hunt has for sale at
his "establishment, corner of Whitaker and- State
streets, a fine lot of goods for the holidays, consisting
of confectionary of the finest quality, toys and fancy
goods of every description, and superior fire works,
which he offfers at wholesale and retail
The public generally are invited to call and exam
ine the goods and make selections for - the holidays-
while there is plenty to choose from. The goods will
be found to be as represented, the confectionery can
not be excelled; the toys are of the most pleasing de
scription, and the fireworks are of the most beautiful
kind obtainable. .
The Circus.—Another immense crowd attended the
exhibition of Dan Castello's Circus Troupe last even
ing, the pavilion being again filled to its utmost ca
pacity. The perforinances of the troupe Were again
greeted with rapturous applause. This excellent
troupe has attracted crowds for a longer time and
given more sati -faction than any circus company that
has been here for a long time. . ' Jt
The ministrel performance given after the close of
the circus entertainment is of a very excellent charac
ter, and proves very attractive.
There will be a grand matinee at the pavilion at two
o’clock tbla afternoon, and the final appearance of the -
troupe for this trip will he made this evening. No
person should neglect to pay them a yisik
Great Auction Sale of China, Glass and Crock
ery Ware.—To make room for an entire new stock
of Christmas goods, Messrs. J. W. Stansbury & Co.,
are selling at auction the entire stock now on hand, at
their store, thus affording housekeepers a splendid,
first-class opportunity to furnish themselves with
goods in their line, at low prices. The sale will con
tinue until the stock is disposed bf, and goods will be
sold in lots to suit purchasers, or in single pieces
when desired. The sale will be held at Messrs. Stans-
bnry & Co's store, on Broughton street, just above
Bulk' They have a splendid assortment of china,
glass and crockery ware, and we advise our readers to
be hand, and secure such articles as they may want.
The Advertising Circular.—We understand from
a friend, who accidentally found a copy of an adver
tising circular, issued down the street, that numerous
advertisements were crowded out of it yesterday,
and its columns filled with replies to an article con
tained in this paper. As soon as we are able to find a
copy of the circular kbout town, we may, perhaps,
take the trouble to ansVer it. This being a holiday,
there will be plenty of idle boys about town; and if we
hav3 any spare pennies, we will deYOte them to set
ting a crowd on the hunt for a copy.
Grand Ball.—The regular anniversary ball of the
Germania Fire Company, will take place at St.-An
draws Hall, op the night of Wednesday, December
third.
The Wyoming.—A telegram to Messrs. Hunter A
Gammell, received yesterday, states that the steam
ship Wyoming, which sailed from here on Saturday
last, arrived in Philadelphia on Tuesday evening.
jZpy the State:—I saw Mr. Shea in the crowd when I
came up. I don't know what he was doing at that
time. Don't know who committed {he. assault upon
Morgan. I came up after the shooting.
Cross Examined by Mr. Hartridge:—No person was
with me when I went up. Morgan Lad on a police
uniform when he passed the house. I heard no re
ply from Morgan when Rossiter spoke to him. Mor-
n did not come back. I left the stoop of Rossiter's
se immediately after Rossiter went back to finish'
his dinner. Rossiter’s house is on Houston street,
between two or three blocks from where I was on
East Broad street when I heard the shok I went di
rectly from Rossiter’s house to the spot on East Broad
street where I was when I heard the report of the
pistol. I suppose that it was between two and three
hundred yards from the place where I was on East
Broad streets to the comer of State and Houston
streets, where I found Morgan and Rossiter. I ran
part of the* way back to the' spot, and walked the
other. When I arrived where Morgan aud Rossiter
were, there was quite a crowd there. I do not know
how many. Morgan was standing up. I do not know
how he got on the ground. He was on the ground
when Rossiter jumped upon him, but I do not know
how he got there. I cannot—
Q.—Did you see anybody strike «yi knock him
down ?
A.—I cannot answer the question. I decline be
cause it might tend to criminate myself.
Examination resumed.—I saw Hugh Riley there. I
saw Riley jump on Morgan after he was on the ground.
Did not see Riley have a knife. Did not take notice
whether he had or not at that time. I saw Mm have
one open in his hand after he had been arrested.
From the time when 1 heard the report of the pistol
until I reached the spot, several minutes elapsed—per
haps five. I did not see Shea catch hold of Morgan
and pull him down.
By the Court.—It wras ten or fifteen minutes after
Hugh Riley was arrested when I saw liim with an
open knife in his hands. He was arrested by the po
lice. He was arrested within a few yards of where the
difficulty occurred: I did not sec ritm have the knife
until he reached Rossiter’s house. It was a small
pocket knife. When I saw deceased after he was shot,
he said nothing to me, except that ho had been shok
Deceased did not tell me that he had attacked Morgan.
I did not think that Rossiter and Morgan would have
a difficulty. I left Rossiter in his house when I went
to my work. I do not know when Rossiter left his
house. I (lid not hear Rossiter say that he intended
to go after Morgan. Morgan was standing up when I
came on the spot; he was on the ground a minute or
two afterwards. When Rossiter called after Morgan,
in front of his house, Morgan walked on and made no
answer. I never heard Rossiter make a remark about
Morgan in my life. This difficulty occurred in Sa
vannah, Chatham county.
Hugh RUey sworn and saithOn the 5th of Novem
ber. 1868,1 was sitting, eating my dinner, in Mr. Ros
siter’s house. Policemen passed by, on the sidewalk.
I did not see them, but I heard them.
Mr. Hartridge.—Did you see them ?
Witness.—I know they were policemen, I saw them
through the window. Shea was sitting' on the stoop,
and one of them made the remark : Shea, are you
boar din g»at Rossiter’s : contemptible house ?—
I heard the remark. Mr. Rossiter went out to the
door, but what ho said I do not know. He then came
back and sat down to his dinner again. He finished
his dinner, and got np to go to his work on the Bay.
-He Walked ouk He started to go to the Bay. I saw him
go. He went as far as the corner of Houston street,
on the corner of the Square. What words passed be
tween hint and Morgan I cannot say I cannot say
that any words passed between them. I saw Rossiter
strike Morgan with his hand. I saw another police
man holding Rossiter. The policeman is in Court. I
recognize this policeman (Dowden) as the man who
held Rossiter. While Dowden was holding Rossiter,
Morgan wheeled around, arew his pistol and shot him,
(Rossiter). That is all I know about ik I thought
Dowden had Rossiter prisoner when Morgan shot
him. I was under the opinion that Dowden had ar
rested Rossiter, and wondered very much to see ano
ther man turn around and shoot him. I ran xp.
By the State.J.Two policemen, passed the stoop.
One* of them made a remark to-Shea. I could not tell
which of them made the remark.
Cross-examined by Mr: Hartridge.—I ran to the spot
immediately after the shooting. I do-, not know who
was on the spot where the shooting occurred when I
reached there. I know Mr. Shea. He wits there
when I came up. Shea left Rossiter’s stoop at the time
he saw Rossiter strike Morgan, saying that Morgan
would shoot him right away. I did not leave tne
stoop until after the shot was fired: Not one minute
elapsed between the time that Rossiter struck Mor
gan and when the latter shot him. ' IDvras across the
Square from the stoop to where the shooting occurred.
I did hot measure the distance. When I came up'to t
the spot Morgan and Rossiter were'botli lying on the
ground. I saw blood on Morgan's face. I saw Rossi
ter strike him, after he was shot. I cannot say wheth
er anybody else struck him. I do not want to swear
avainst myself. I did not see McCarthy strike him. I
cannot say that I saw McCarthy there when I came up.
There was nobody else ou the stoop except Shea and
myself when the striking and shooting occur red. I
had just come out there at the time the striking took
place. I had not sat down yek
By the State.—Mrs. Rossiter was on the stoop at the
time. I meant that there was no other man there.
By Mr. Hartridge.—I * am a brother of Mrs. Ros
siter's.
Dr. T. C. Harden, sworn and saith:—1 am Coroner
of Chatham county. I held an inquest over tho body
of John Rossiter, on the 12th of November, 1808. He
died from the effects of a gunshot wound.
The State here closed its testimony, and the defence
commenced, the first witness sworn being Dr. McFar
land, whose testimony was as follows :
Dr. J. T. McFarland, Sworn.—On or about the 5th
of November, 1868,1 visited policeman Thomas Mor
gan, at his house on the south-east commons, and
found three or four wounds upon the face; one being
incised, the others presenting considerable contusion.
He also had an incised wound upon the face. His face
presented the appearance of one who had been badly
beaten. None of the wounds were considered as dan
gerous by me. He complained of great pain in the
region of the chest. I attended the said policeman
Morgan during his entire indisposition.
Marlin Houlihan, sworn and saith :—The difficulty
under investigation occurred near my house. My at
tention was firjjt attracted to it by the pistol shot.—
Previous to that I saw four policemen passing Rossi
ter’s house, but knew nothing of what occurred there.
I was sitting on my stoop when I saw them. They
came right doWn by my house. There was Morgan,
Dowden, Harringtou and Sergeant Leonard. I did
not see Roraiter lea e his houso, but I saw him com
ing across the square afterwards. When the police
men were coming I went into my house. They went
down to Sergeant Leonard’s and left him; then Dow
den, Harrington'and Morgan came back. It was
about five or six minutes after I nan, these men pass
Rossiter’s house that I saw Rossiter following them.
I could npt hear what passed between Rossiter and
Morgan. When Rossiter met Morgan, there was no
body with him (Morgan) but Dowden. I did not see
Rossiter strike Morgan. • I knew nothing of the diffi
culty until the shot was fired, as I was then sitting in
side of my house. When I heard the report of the
pistol I ran out of the house. When I came to the
spot, I saw Dowden; Morgan and Rossiter there, and
nobody else. Morgan was laying on his back, on the
sidewalk, r gty by i»y steps, Rossiter was standing
over him with the pistol in his hand, cocked, and pre
sented right to Morgan’s head. I do not know where
Dowden was then. I was excited by the critical posi
tion of Morgan, and at once caught the hand of Ros
siter. I took hold of the pistol, and we contended for
tlie possession of ik I told him to give it up to me.
He said he wanted to have satisfaction as Morgan had
shot him, and said he would not give it up. I told
him it would be no satisfaction to kill the man. I did
not sse Shea there when I got on the spok After the
difficulty was over I saw him coming across to the
spok and asked him if he would be good enough to
go off for a doctor, and he said-yes. He was crossing
the street from the square when I saw him. I did not
see Shea, have hold of Morgan at all. When J first
oame up and saw Morgan lying on the sidewalk, I can
net say whether he was bleeding or nok Afterwards
on the ground .I .saw cuts on lus face, forehead and
chest. The wounds were the same as cuts from a
knife. Morgan never left the ground until he was
carried off in a wagon. * It is right across the square
from my house to Rossiter’s. .V
By the State.—The pistol which Rossiter had was
one belonging to the city. It was in charge of Mor
gan. It was No. 93,554. I do not know how de
ceased obtained possession' of the pistol When I
arrived I cannot, of my own knowledge, and recollec
tion, say that Shea was not present. There were
many persons abouk I did not see Shea. When I
came out of my door he was nowhere around that I
saw. I saw RUey cut Morgan with a knife. He made
a cut at me with the knife aud cut through my two
shirts.
By Mr. Hariridge.—I saw McCarthy kick Morgan as
he lay upon the sidewalk.
By the Court.—I do not know how Morgan got down
on the sidewalk. He was lying there when I came
up, and Rossiter standing over him with the pistol in
his hand. I did not take notice bf any blood upon
Morgan until RUey cut him. I did not take any no
tice of Morgan before thak There might have been
blood upon him and not have noticed it.
By Mr. Hartridge.—Morgan appeared to be insen
sible when I came up. He was lying there as though
he was dead.
By the Court.—Dowden was under the influer
liquor at the time.
By Mr. Hartridge. —Dowden was under the influ
ence of liquor, hut apparently able to know what was
going on.
The Court then adjourned until Friday morning, at
10 o'clock.
