Another Victim to Negro Malice.—Mr. Frederick Brickman, who was wounded in the abdomen and groin, in the attack upon the special police force on Thunderbolt Boad last Saturday night, by an organized gang of negro murderers, died from the effects of his wounds yesterday. He had suffered very much, and while he lived had to be kept un der the influence of morphine a considerable poition of the time. Mr. Brickman resided upon the same place as the late Mr. Broad- hacker, and assisted in cultivating the ex tensive vegetable garden of the latter. • He was a native of Germany, and a thrifty, in dustrious farmer, was upwards of forty years of age, and leaves a wife and family. His fnneral will take place at three o’clock this afternoon. Informal Meetings of Council.—Monday night and last night the members of Council have been holding informal meetings for the purpose of arranging the tax budget for the ■ ensuing year. There are many of the taxes which Council should do away with, and make up the deficiency upon something more able to bear taxation. All taxes on incomes of less than three thousand dollars per year, should be abolished; for, by reason of high rents and the great cost of living here, it re quires every cent that working men, clerks, sc., can make to pay their expenses. There is a strong popular feeling favoring a reduc tion of the heavy taxation at present in force, to which the Aldermen should give heed. Dissolution.—The firm of S. D. Ian ton A Co. was dissolved upon yesterday, as their notice will show, and a co-partnership formed between K. L. Gentry and George K. Moore, for the purpose of continuing the commission business in all its branches, at the old stand. The members composing the new firm are well-known citizens of Augusta, thoroughly conversant with the commission business in ail its varieties. With the excellent business talent, energy and acquaintance which they possess, we feel assured of toeir success. We, with much pleasure, commend the new firm to our country friends and the public gen erally.—Augusta Constitutionalist, 6ih inst. Negro Incendiaries at Work on the Oqee- chee Boad.—We learn that about midnight of Monday night the dwelling house on Mrs. Marshall’s plantation, of Woodlawn, situated on the Ogeechee road, four or five miles from the city, was destroyed by negro incendiaries. They first tore off and carried away all the lumber that they were able to loosen, and then set fire to the structure and reduced it to ashes. The house was unoccupied. Five or six hundred dollars will cover the loss. The act of incendiarism was committed by negroes residing in the neighborhood. “Let us have peace.” Photographic.—Persons who want pictures taken should read the card of Mr. Wilson, in another column, and visit his celebrated gal- tery, on the comer of Broughton and Whitaker streets, where he is prepared to take all kinds °f pictures. His gallery has long been cele brated as one of’the best in this section of the country, and persons who go there are sure °f getting good pictures. His photographs are really fine specimens of artistic work manship. Deposit Books Wanted.—David B. Dil lon, Esq., banker, No. 4 Whitaker street, wants to purchase, and offers a good price for deposit books of the defunct Savings bank. See his advertisement in another column. Pike in the United States Custom House. About six o clock yesterday morning, it was discovered that there was afire among the contents of the eastern vaults of the United States Custom House. An alarm was sounded niu ® flamea were speedily suppressed. . , , musl Lave broken out about ten o clock last night, as at that time the air in toe vicinity of toe Bay was impregnated with the odor of something burning. About mid- • night the atmosphere became so thick and so filled with the smell of fire, that parties en deavored to ascertain toe cause, but could not do do so. The iron doors of the vanlts being closed, no air could get to the fire, and its progress was, therefore, very slow. The watchman in the upper part of toe building discovered nothing of' it It appears to have originated in toe north- centre vault, in which a number of chests of tea were stored; and from thence it spread around to toe vault in the southeastern cor ner, where it did most damage among a num ber of barrels of bottled lager beer belonging to Millen A Wadley. Some wine and whiskey was also consumed, and the wooden door leading into the next vault was reduced to cinders. The tea chests in toe vault where it commenced were destroyed, and toe pecu liar smell was caused by the horning of toe tea. There was.very little woodwork about the vanlts, toe separating walls and the ceil ing overhead being of solid granite. The ston^ was very much heated. Workmen were engaged during yesterday in cleaning out the place, and as soon as they have fin ished the work an appraisement of the damage will be made, which will not, how ever, exceed a few hundred dollars. The origin of the lire is unknown. There was an open fireplace in toe room where it commenced, but before leaving on Monday afternoon, one of toe employees carefully brushed all. coals far back into toe chimney, and sprinkled some water on the fire. One of the boxes of tea may have fallen into the fire, or a spark may have been blown out among toe chests. A little circulation of air in toe vanlts would have caused a heavy loss. The goods were all under bond at risk of owners. Fike Department Meeting.—The regular monthly meeting of the officers of the Sa vannah Fire Department was held at Fire men’s Stall last evening, Chief Fireman Waring presiding. Present—First and Second Assistant Firemen Gordon and Boberts, Presi dents Bussell, Maddox, Dixon and White, Foremen Barron, Carney, Swartz and Hirt. The minutes of the last meeting were read and approved. Mr. Gordon, Inspector of toe Eastern Di vision, reported toe apparatus of the Ogle thorpe, Washington and Mechanics Compa nies in good order; the Franklin engine might be used in an emergency, but is not to be relied upon. The apparatus in toe Western Division was reported in good order. President Bussell said that toe roof of Engine House No. 7, was in bad condition, and toe engine was being injured. He al luded to toe action of Council in treating with contempt all matters brought to their notice bv the officers of toe Fire Depart ment. He moved that Council be notified ot the condition of toe Engine House No. 7, and that they be requested to remedy it. Capt. White deprecated any action putting toe city to any further expense, for the color ed companies. The motion was earned. The appointment of a committee of three to confer with toe Finance Committee of Council, with reference to the payment of bills of toe Fire Department, was talked of. Mr. White moved that six indigent boys be hunted up, to be educated at the school in Firemen’s Hall, free of charge, as pgf agreement with toe lessee. Carried. After transacting some further business of no public interest, toe meeting adjourned. Brevities.—-There are pools of water in toe streets in many places, showing where a little grading is needed.—The sidewalk on the North side of Whitaker street, near Con gress street lane needs repairing. Will the Marshal please look after it?—At Broughton and Barnard streets, (N. E. corner) where the sidewalk was very bad, a new one is being constructed.—An improvement in' toe shape of a good cross walk has been thrown across South Broad street and Drayton street.-Hamilton’s new house, in South Broad street, is quite a stylish affair. —What has be come of the South Broad street cemetery asso ciation—Colonel Charles C. Jones,formerly of Savannah, has written a history of the Indian chieftain, Tomochiclii.—Everybody should read The Morning News and visit the Thea tre.—A reward of one hundred dollars is offered for the arrest of William Cone, well known in this vicinity, who is charged with murder.—The steamer St. Helena will run to Darien and intermediate points, commencing on Thursday next.—The Postmaster should publish for information the rates of adver tising on the columns of his fence. —Many of our legal gentlemen wont to Bryan Superior Court, which met ou Monday. None of toe coarts are in session here at present.—The hotels are pretty well filled with people from toe North, come down to enjay the Southern winter. Wonder what they thought of last Monday night as a specimen ?—Japonicas are in bloom in our gardens.—Savannah has a fair and theatre by way of amusement. Fair foe the Benefit of the Hebrew Collegiate Institute.—The‘fair which is being held at St. Andrew’s Hall, for toe purpose of raising funds for the erection of a building for the above named institution, promises to be very successful. The hall was crowded with visitors last evening, and all those present derived great enjoyment from looking at toe many beauties of the fair. The trimming and general arrange ment of the tables excites particular admira tion from everybody. One novel feature of this fair, and one which is a great relief to all those who visit the fair, deserves particular mention. There is no canvassing for chances, toe Managers having determined not to resort to that an noying method to dispose qf the various ar ticles upon toe tables, The goods speak for themselves, and need not any great amount of talking to persuade peoplo to purchase them. Bunch will be spread by toe ladiesat eleven o’clock in toe morning, dinner in toe afternoon and supper during toe evening. There will always be found ou toe table a bountiful sup ply of all toe dainties that toe market affords. Toys, toilet articles, specimens of needle work, everything to suit every taste, can be found at the fair, and it affords an excellent opportunity-for the purchase of gifts for toe holidays. It will remain open during this week, and, we hope it will receive liberal patronage from our citizens. Arrested.—F. Oechlin was arrested last evening on a warrant issued by Justice Bus- Bell, for larceny after a trust delegated. He had borrowed a number of dishes from J. W. Stansbury A Co., and refused to return them again. Stole a Pistol.—Some thief who had not a proper veneration for toe majesty of toe law, went into toe office of Justice Hart and stole his revolver. The Justice will pay ten dollars for its return, and ask no questions. * Condition of Mr. Quint.—Mr. John Quint, who was so severely wounded in the affray on Thunderbolt Boad on Saturday night last, ^as somewhat easier yesterday. His condi tion is regarded as very critical. Georgia Chapter, No. 3,' it. A. M.—The attention of those interested is particularly called, to toe notice of a communication this evening of the above Chapter. The Cleopatra, Capt. Phillips, to accom modate shippers, was held over until to-day. “he will sail at three o’clock this afternoon. Regular Meeting of Council.—The regu lar meeting of Council will be held this eve ning. The Theatre.-The famous play of Camille; or the -PWe of a Coquette, was, on the boards at toe Theatre last evening. The play has stood toe test of time and many performan ces in an accountable manner, as it is not one of toe best that we have adapted from toe French. Miss Thompson and toe mem bers of toe company made all opt of it that could be made. The play attracted a very' large and a very respectable audience; and, by enthusiastic applause it was testified to toe genuine appreciation of toe performance. Miss Thompson made a splendid "Camille,” while Mr. Sutton, Mr. Harrison, and toe other members of the stock company were unusually good. ; . • In toe afterpiece—A Etss in the Dark, Mr. Harrison, as Selim Pettibone, was exceedingly funny, and there was not a person in toe au dience who could resist toe temptation to laugh at bis witty points. This evening the play of East Lynne will be prodnced, with the Quiet Family as toe afterpiece. Bankruptcy. —Petitions for a final discharge from Bankruptcy were yesterday filed by toe followed named persons: George W. Sturgis and Stephen B Smith, of Fort Valley; James A. Glenn, of Blakely; Wm. G. Scruggs, and Henry H. Fitzpatrick, of Warrenton. „ , , Since toe passage of toe Bankrupt act there have been filed tty persons residing within the limits of the Sonthem District of Georgia, four hundred and sixty-two petitions to be allowed to take the benefit of toe bank rupt act. Of these, two hundred and sixty- eight have petitioned to be finally discharged, and final discharges have been granted in eighty-fonr cases. All persons who have filed petitions in bankruptcy should bear in mind the fact that toe request for discharge must be placed on record within a year after toe first petition. Selling Out. — Clothing and gents’ fur nishing goods retailed at New York whole sale prices, by .S. Krauskopt, 181 Congress street, near Jefferson. " Mayor’s Court* Hon. E. CX Anuekson, Mayor, Presiding. Tuesday, December 8, 1868. The owners and' master of toe schooner Fannie Beating, were arraigned for violating some one of toe harbor regulations, in load ing lumber from and breaking up rafts at her berth-. A fine of fifty dollars was imposed. The keepers of a livery stable were fined eight dollars for obstructing the lane in toe rear of their premises with wagons, and five dollars- for not appearing to answer to toe- charge. Billy Martin, a lively looking little fisher man from the Isle of Hope, came to town and managed to get tight as bricks. He was found lying asleep upon the top of a pile of bricks, and carried to the Barracks. Billy had but little to say, as he stood shivering in front of toe Marshall, and he was requested to settle a bill of three dollars with Clerk. Mary Murphy, maid of sin, Filled her carcase full of gin; Of whiskey straights she drank a score, And could have t&’en as many more. But her weary, slippery feet Tumbled her right into the street. Mary came np and smiled at His Honor, as one whom she had met before. She twice essayed to open a mouth, which resembled toe entrance to a railroad depot, bat failed in the attempt. Mary retired to her seat in disgust, when called upon to pay a fine of ten dollars, or go to jail for ten days. Heniy Jarvis foully appropriated a fowl which belonged to William Stiles, who heard his chicken cackle a protest against such a violent and unlawful proceeding, and went to too rescue. He captured Henry and toe chicken, and toe youth was called upon to propitiate Dame Justice, by toe payment of ten dollars, or to go to jail for thirty days. Mr. William Berrien, a colored representa tive from Thunderbolt, went on a lively drank, and loudly expressed his opinion re garding the occurrences on Thunderbolt road, on Saturday night last. A policeman who was of toe opinion that William was making more noise than toe law allowed, took him to toe Barracks. Fined three dol lars. William Osborn, colored, went on a red- hot drank, undressed himself and walked along the street in costume fashionable in the early days of toe world, when toe garden of Eden was open to visitors. He was re monstrated with by citizens for walking around £in that style, and informed that he was a sport. William was fined three dol lars. Besolutions of Respect.—At a special meeting of toe Germania Fire Company, No. 10, the undersigned were appointed ns a committee to give expression to toe feelings of the organization with reference to the death of our late brother fireman, Frederick Broadbacker, and in accordance with the de sire of the Company we present toe follow ing: Whereas, This Company has learned with profound sorrow and regret of the sudden death of Frederick Broadbacker, who was for many years a mnch respected member of our organization, by the hands of midnight assas sins, while acting in toe discharge of his duty as a special policeman. Be it therefore, Resolved, That in toe death of our late brother fireman, this Company has lost an efficient and zealous member, who was ever ready to respond to the call of duty. Resolved, That as a mark of respect for the memory of toe deceased, the Company will wear toe usual badge of mourning for thirty days. Resolved, That as an additional mark of respect, a page upon our minute book be en grossed with toe name, age and time of death of our late brother. Resolved, That a copy of this preamble and these resolutions be sent to toe bereaved family of the deceased, with whom we deeply sympathize in their affliction, and that they be published in the Savannah Morning News. C. Hirt, j John Cooper, V Committee. Simon E. Byck, j Monthly Report of the Chaplain of the Mariners’ Bethel.—The following report of toe operations of toe chaplain of the Marin ers’ Bethel, in this city, will be of interest to many of our readers: Savannah, Ga., Dec. 8th, 1868. J. T. Thomas, Esq., President of Savannah Port Society: I take pleasure in submitting through you to toe Society my first monthly report. I commenced my labors among the seamen on the 10th Novemher.

On Monday night November 30th, we organized a total abstinence society and obtained eighteen sig natures to toe pledge. On last Sabbath toe attendance was fifty in the morning and sixty-five at night. On Monday night we ob tained thirteen more signatures to the pledge. The sum of my labors are as follows: Preached eleven sermons; visited seventy- seven vessels; distributed sixteen hundred and fifty pages of tracts; two hundred and twenty small hooks and twenty copies of Seaman’s Companion. All of which is respectfully submitted. B. Webb, Chaplain. -M- No Election' fob Justices of the Peace.— The Ordinary, after looking into toe matter, has ascertained that there are two of the old Justices of the Peace who hold commissions, and whose terms of office do not expire for several years yet; and the appointment by Bullock of ex-official justices gives to each District an officer properly empowered to transact business. Under these circumstances the Ordinary will not put the oounty to the expense of holding an election lor Magis trates in January next; and will await toe action of some higher Court, or of the Legis- ture npon the subject. Meanwhile, it would be interesting to know who are and who are not legal Magistrates. Dividend Declared.—The Augusta & Sa vannah Bailroad Company have declared a divident of three and one-half dollars per share, less the U. 8. tax. hotel arrivals. * Marshall House—J W Fitzgerald, steamer Lizzie Baker; J B Dregg, N Haven; Mrs E Perkins, Lawton, Ga; Lieut W A Willis, City; D C Smith, do; J B Case, Baltimore; H H Carom, Ga.
