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

Hibernian Brass and String Band (twenty

deed good news, and we have no doubt the

“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

the .South.
We submit these fa cts as evidence of Goor

EXTENSIVE ROBBERIES.
THE FESTIVE IS THE
LAND OF FIXJV>' ERS -
A Chance for oar Detec
tlve».
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.

An Important Judicial DXuttcr.
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.
