The Gift Concert. The first musical and vocal concert, under the management of Mr. Daniel MeConuell, rame off at tbo theatre on last evening. The house was not full, though the audience was highly respectable and appreciative. The instrumental music was really fine, bat we would not suggest a repetition of the vocal performance. Taken altogether, tho concert was an undoubted musical suc cess, though much might bo done in the matter of dress and stage arrangement to add to the effect and charm of so excelled au ontertainmout. The second concert will be given this evening. The inclement weather last evening, we have every reason to boliovo, was tho sole reason that the house was not crowded, as we know that a large number of tickets were gold. Quite a number were fortuuate in securing prizes, and this fact will sorve to increase the desire of others to test their lack. The inauguration of those concorts in our city is as novel as it is enterprising, and as the musical merit of tho performances is generally conceded, we hope, and boliovo, th'*y will prove eminently successful. Dur ing the summer season we liavo scarcely any amusements, and entertainments of this tbaracter, which appeal directly to tho taste of tho refined and cultivated, should receive encouragement and support. We can re commend these concerts to tho favorable consideration of all, and unhesitatingly as- s.-rt that the programme this evening will be worthy the attendance of the largest au dience. A Disu |ipoi n t m«< nt—The Kxcursloa to to be Abandoned. The proposed excursion of the Conven tion Governors now in session at Atlanta, to this city has been looked forward to with tho most pleasurable anticipations, as it was generally regarded that? a personal visit from tho representative men of tho West would • outuate in practical and mutual benefit to the interests of the two sections. Prepara tions have been mado to receive the distin guished guests in & stylo creditable to the historic roputation of our loved city; our gallant volunteers had arranged for a grand turn out on tho occasion, and nothing in fact had been omitted in the preparations to render the visit to the excursionists pleasant in every respect. The disappointment, there- lore, will be general when it is known that tho excursion has been abandoned, The following is tho tenor of r dispatch received from tho Savannah delegation at Atlanta yesterday afternoon: ‘*liy resolution of the Convention just passed, tho visit to Savannah and other cities is abandoned. Visiting Governors have pressing official engagements forbid ding the tour. Stop preparations.” We are indebted to Dr. James Stewart, Clerk of Council, for tho prompt transmis sion of telegrams. First Annual PIc-Nic.*” ' At the regular monthly meeting of the Father Mathew’s Total Abstinence and h-neticial Society, all the arrangements necessary for a pic-nic wore completed. It tus decided to have the pic-nic on Thurs day, June 5th, at Potter’s Grove. The steamer Katie has been chartered, and the Hibernian Brass and String Band (twenty piecos) has been engaged for the occasion. The committee of arrangements have left nothing undone to render their first annual pic-nic a most pleasant affair. Tho stoamer *iii make two trips to tho grove, and due notice of the hours of starting will bo given in the News. Tickets for adults $1, children half price, which may be had of any of the following committee : Peter McIntyre, Chairman; C. A. Daniels, M. II. Ennes, P. . . T. H. Downing, D. D. Keane, J. M. Whelan, C. F. Whelan, John Skinner. Choice Butler at Luw Prices. The hearts of housekeepers will bo glad dened when they read the advertisement pf the enterprising grocery merchant Mr. A. Hoyle, on Whiteker street, who gives notice morning that ho is prepared to sell the choicest kind of butter—three pounds for ae dollar—until further notice. This is in deed good news, and we have no doubt the ''tablishment will be thronged to-day. In these times economy is necessary, and such &Q opportunity as thifl to practice it will not 1* slighted. Fox’s New Stable. Mr. J. p. pox, late of the firm of J. P. Fox ^ &>•> proprietors of the Bryan Street s ’abl*_s, lias withdrawn from the old firm and established himself in the now and com modious brick stable on West Broad street, °Pposito State, where he has on hand a largo sto °k of horses and mulos. Mr. Fox is an en ergetic, go ahead, gentleman, and thoso ^ho deal with him cannot fail to be satis fied. Post Office Orders. Parties who receive Post Office money r dera will do well to remember that if thoy I" 1 ® 0 them i n the face they will liavo to coi- ;" ct idem in person. If they are to be eol- ‘"etc-d by a clerk or an agent, they must be • -*de payable to his order by endorsement Q the backs.

The social collector does not wait for his call to he returned The grocery stores will be closed after the 1st proximo, at seven o’clock. The Forest City Rowing Club’s new shell, “Lina,” has arrived. How to utilize the convict labor of th© county, is tho subject now under discussion. Betsy Holmes, a colored female of polyga mic priaciplea, is now languishing in jail. A gentleman who has some experience in forms us he would enjoy “Modoc punches” if there were no to-morrow. A well known citizen is practicing on a saw-horse in his backyard with & view to joining the Hussars. A new patented button is put on with a screw-driver. The effect of this invention upon matrimony is breathlessly awaited. An active youth who is expert in spearing flying roaches shonld be secured by some of the boarding housekeepers. “Invisible ink,” (rendered visible by being held to the fire), is now offered to those who want to nse tho postal cards. Mr. Steven W. Parker, of Dawson, and Frod. C. Foster, of Madison, wero yesterday admitted to the Federal Bar. The Presbyterian Sunday School scholars spent a delightful day at Montgomery yes terday. Helen Cavarian, a young girl, has been ar rested on the charge of vagrancy, preferred by her mother. An asylum will receive her. W. H. Styles, colored, furnished an emi nent magistrate with a larceny case yester day. Clever. Dr. Cyrio A. P. DeCortoz, well-known in this city, committed suicide in Brooklyn, New York, on tho 15th instant, by taking morphine. Parties selling liquors in Chatham county, who dont pony up the license foo by the 1st, will bo prosecuted. So say the eminent Commissioners. Mary Rodgers, a fascinating female, tam pered too long with benzioo, and fell aBlecp on a door-stoop. Mary will read a temper ance lecture in the jail. A dealer who snubbed an agent with tho remark that ho didn’t believe in advertising, had his stock advertised yesterday by an obliging constable. Could not some gallant trooper be induced to emulate Bates, and carry the bar stangled spanner over tho lava bods. “Whar’s de Linkum Guards?” A gouty goutloman yesterday stumbered over a venerable looking barrel of whisky, in a grocery store and scalped his nose. Let us pray. The hopes of the dispensers of the liquid refreshments were blighted by the announce ment that the Gubernatorial excursion had been abandoned. A Presbyterian youngster fell into the river at the pic-nics at Montgomery yester day. When rescuod he ejaculated, “I’m a baptist.” This is rapid conversion. Eleven hundred and twelve dollars paid for the strawberries and cream placed where they “would do the most good,” at the recent Park Festival. Repeat. From the 1st ©f December to 1st of April 48,253 tons of guano were shippod from Sa vannah. This leads pur lively Sister by the Sea, if we mistake not. The grocery clerks are tickled over the early closing movement. The dry goods clerk perceives no cause for such levity, as ladies prefer shopping after sundown this genial weather. The smiling presence of throe able lawyers at the Council meeting last night induced the postponement of the trial of those thrilling appeal casep to a special meeting. A “merchant” on a side street, near Bull, who behoves in doing his own advertising, has a placard in his window informing the passers by that “Scissars sn»i razars is sharpened hear.” Four hundred families, mainly white, in one county on the Atlantic and Gulf Rail road could not produce a Bible, wl icn visited by a minister. And yot red flannel shirts must be built for the heathens. When a Turkish wifo forgets to k tho suspender buttons sewed to her lx'usband’s trowsers, she is patted on tho back for half an hour with a pine board an imth thick. An African wife is better treated. T!he frown is chased from hor lofty brow wi tlx a flat iron.

Herbert A Co., X Market Basement. “What a Georgia Seaport lx si m Bone for Ilerseif.” Thu Atlanta Constitution,commenting rnpon the record of the exports and imports ol the port t>f Savannah, as published in tho Mo us ing Nsws some time since, says: The example of Savannah, one of the pro posed Atlantic termini of the Great Wost« rn Canal—is worthy of note and of imitatic n. The war left her prostrate in every interei t, and in this rospectshe hut shared the fate of all her Southern sisters. Bhe hag risen, how ever, above her misfortunes, and attaino d to a crow ill and proape r jty unequaled to any previous period of he', history. In this lat ter regard she may b e said to stand sliiuing among the seaports of the South. And why this distinction'.' T his is au intercstmj; sub ject of inquiry. C> jief among the reasou s are tho following: V irst, she never allowed the disasters of the war to paralyze her energies; second, SDK D ErENDED ON HKIIBELF, not on other s, for the work of recuperatioil- A few facts in this connection will be inter esting ta the commercial public at the pros - ent tr.ne. _ At the close of the war between tho States, the commerce of Savannah was virtually ob literated. Her harbor was blocked and im peded by artificial obstructions put down by tbo military authorities, which, in turn, superinduced shoals at points where from the confluence of tho tides there had al ways been a tendency to deposit, so that vessels drawing only about twelve feet of water, often- times found difficulty in getting up to the city at high tide, over the shoals accumulated ;tt the wreck bank. In addi tion to this, th e utter destruction, by Gen. Sherman’s arm y, of a very considerable por tion of the raili \)*ls leading into Savannah, and the conseqi Hint protection of her once prosperous busi neas seemed like a final death-blow to he r progress for all time to come. Yet the c, iy of SAVANNAH. HOUSED HEBSELF to the emergonc y, and in An enlightened spirit of liberalit y, applied herself to tho work of recuperal ion. From her municipal treasury, unaided aud alone, she provided herself with the accessary apparatus and appliances for the removal of the' obstruc tions to commerce in the river, and by lib eral appropriations,, amounting at tho pres ent time to over a ‘juarter of a million of dollars, paid by the ttu>-payers of Savannah, she has opened up the channels so that the largest class of ve nsels drawing seventeen and a half feet, tnd easy access to her wharves. ... ... The Atlantic and (Gulf Railroad, leading from Sai annah to thi ■ Flint river at Bain bridge, suffered equ. ally with the Central from tin; forays of the Union troops, aDd w^a red instructed wi th like energy bv the efforts of its officers. It operates with its Florida connections, 126 miles of track, making, with tho Ce ntral ltailroad, as the grand arterios in diro ct traffic with the city of Savannah, 1,971 mi les of railroad bearing to ,'inr chief seaport t je surplus products of the .South. We submit these fa cts as evidence of Goor gia ent -CT and entei prise, and to hold up Savannah as an exa mple of what a people may do l’or themselves when they bring their head * and hearts earnestly to the work.

It will be remembered that & shoi ^ since we gave an account of certain re net- committed in Uic vicinity of Jacket >u * vllle, Florida, and expressed the opinion that the perpetrators belonged to a profes sional gang operating in this section. The “chloroform” gent, who distinguished him self in the sleeping car business, was finally arretted, and is now in jail at Beaufort. It was supposed, at the time, that ho belonged to the same crowd, and nothing lias occurred since to alter this opinion. The “band,” it appears, embraces professionals of every kind—the car robber, the hotel thief, the pickpocket, the bank burglar, and others of like ilk. With the latter wo now have to deal. These festive individuals generally work in company, as they are thereby enabled to operate more successfully and quickly. 1 hey have been enjoying themselves of late in the Land of Flowers, and on Saturday night last planned and executed cue of tho boldest and most successful robberies, in the quiet burg of Jfccksonville, that has occurred there within an ago. Their attention was first given to THE POSTOFFICE, but in what manner they succeeded in gain ing an entrance to that institution is not sat isfactorily explained. Suppositions have been advanced that they either had a key to the door, or managed to secrete themselvos in the building before tho doors were closed. The robbery was discovered on Sunday morning, and created considerable sensation in the town. After appropriating what they desired in the Postoffice, tho burglars ENTERED THE BOOK STORE of Messrs. C. L. Mather A Co., ^adjoining that building and separated by gates. Tho nocturnal visitors must havo been engaged for several hours at their work, and from the appearance of the premises evidently pursued their operations leisurely. The Jacksonville Republican, of the 20th, contains the following as the LOSSES BY THE ROBBERY. Upon entering the post office department about two hundred letters were discovered upon the floor, torn open and a portion of their contents scattered around the room. These letters were principally those deposi ted for tho outward bound mail. Upon the floor were found drafts for $6,580, to' b© re mitted by the Freedman’s Bank to Wash ington, and $2,500 to be remitted by the same institution to Charleston, besides a large number of drafts belonging to Messrs. D. G. Ambler, Wm. Boot aud others. W< understand no drafts are thus far known to be missing. From tne post office onlv $4 25 was ob tained as far as known, $3 belonging to tho office, and $1 25 enclosed in letters by D. G;. Ambler, the letters being among those founcl open. On tho floor were also found special Tax Revenue Stamps amounting to $175. The gate separating the store from tho post office was opened, apparently from this store, and the safe of Messrs. C. L. Mather A Co. found open. There was no sign off force being used, and experts say that tho person opening it most have known tho combination, or the safe must have been left unlocked. The follo wing is an inventory of tho article* alleged to have been stolen: State Scrip: Comptroller’s warrants, ancl Jurors’ and Witnesses' certificates, $4,0011; Greenback issue, $450. County Scrip: Two pieces, $50 each, $100; Miceilaneous, $250. National bank notes and currency, about $255. One lady’s hunting case watch. One gold lever watch, open face, gold dial, Johnson, maker. One chain with two charms attached. One bracelet, gold slide, back about 14 inches wide. One set gold Esfrnscan jewelry, garnert stones. One pair cuff pins. One set studs, with Jet pearl stone in centre. One diamond emerald ring. One diamond seal ring. Two plain gold rings. REWARD. It will be seen by rofcrenco to onr adver tising columns, that a reward of two thous and dollars is offered for the return of th*) securities of the Htatc of Florida taken from the safe iu the Fost Office, and that Messrit. Maine. A, Ou. offer a reward for the re turn of the jewelry equal in value, and ux> questions asked. It is not improbablo theao festive burglars have rambled in this direc tion, and it would pay some of our keen de tectives to be ou tho look-oat for them. At Estiir*.

J^iilor Morning News: On two occasions I havo seen communica tions in your paper relative to the present mADagvment of tho Solicitor General’s ofHco of this Judicial Circuit. If the statements therein made aro true, one of two things exists, oithar great carelessness or great cor ruption. Eiliicr is sufficient to demand au investigation and a change, aud it is sorely a strange reticence that the Solicitor Gen eral should quietly submit to such strictures, if they be false. Whose business it is to rec tify such abuses, I am not sufficiently ac quainted with the laws to know, but it ought to be somebody’s concern, and it would bo puerile to attempt to show that the whole community i* vitally interested in the fair, prompt and legal transaction of criminal matters. Since the public agitation of this question I havo heard of other abuses, connected with this “ high personal trust,” besides thpse referred to by your contributors, and I trust that “ Lex ” may give us further informa tion as to their legal significance. The criminal affairs of the City Court aro said to be managed with a looseness, to say the lea.tt, satisfactory neither to officers of Court nor prosecutors. Lookeb-oH. ACCIDENT Olfr THE RIVER. T\VO Colored Men Drowned. Yestcrd’ay morning, about seven o’clock, while the k stevedore was at work with a gaDg of colored n-^n shifting tho main stage of the stoamship M ontgomery, at the Upper Hy draulic Press ffbarf, an accident occurred by which five of the men were precipitated into the river. 'Jl® accident resulted from tho partiog of a i*opo attached to the stage and fastened to th& rfdp- Every assistance that could be given the men was prompt ly rendered by the and those upon the wharf, but they wiire only successful in saving three of the mimber. The names of the unfortunate ones w*ho were drowned are Ben Campbell and Jack Cook. Tho latter is spoken of by his employ^'r as an industrious, worthy, colored man. A party of men went to work dragging tho ri'T©r for the bodies, but up to dark they had n ot been successful in recovering them. It would bring a smile on your face equal to that produced by laughing gas to look through the stock of Spring clothing at A. A S. Mitchell’s, 127 Broughton street. apll-tf __ Reserved.
