rendered in a style which reflected no

adopted the protest against the passage
of the bill by the Legislatore, introduced
by Mr. T- R. MUls, of Chatham, prohibit
ing the redaction by the City Council
of Savannah of the salary of the
jaUor.
Alderman Meyer objected to the mo
tion. stating he had been a member of
the Board during several terms, and had
never known the minutes of an informal
meeting to be read for publication. He
objected to it in this cash.
Alderman Sorrel contended that the
meeting was not a secret one, and there
was no reason why the action should not
be made public.
Alderman Meyer renewed his oppositon,
when Alderman Arnold arose and stated
he differed with Alderman Meyer as to
the publicity of the action of this meet
ing. It was under some circumstances
advisable that the action taken in informal
meetings should not be generally known,
bat he did not consider that this meeting
was of that character. He thought that,
the public should know of the action of
the Council in this matter. It had become
known through the papers that a bill was
about to be introduced in the Legislature
by Mr. ATiligj regulating the salary of the
jailor, which was a municipal affair. Coun
cil had met in informal session and had
adopted Rn earnest protest, requesting
the Senator from this district and
the Representatives from Chatham to
prevent the passage of the bill pro
posed. This protest bad been duly for
warded to the Chatham delegation, and
the action of the Legislature was now
known—the bfll had been passed. He
was now anxious that the public should
know that this protest had been made
and the character of it. He would there
fore second the motion of Alderman
SorreL
Further discussion ensued, when the
“question” was called. The motion
being put, the Chair decided it passed.
Alderman Meyer called for a division,
the question being “shall the minutes of
the informal meeting be read and pub
lished, or shall they not?”
AXES AND NAXES.
The ayes and nnyes were taken with tlie
following result:
Ayes—Aldermen Ballantyne, Douglas,
McMahon, Arnold, Sorrel, Cunningham,
Villalonga—7.
Nayes—Aldermen Lovell, Meyer, Blair
—3.
The motion was announced as passed,
and it was ordered that the proceedings
of the meeting be published.
A LOVELX AFFAIR.
The meeting closed with a delightful
little comedy in the shape of an appeal
ease, in which the heavy sum of two dol
lars, (not sufficient hardly to cover the
expense of the gas consumed during its
hearing,) were involved. Twelve wit
nesses were present, and each hod a pleas
ant tale to tell of the horrible condition
of the lane, caused by parties from de
fendant’s throwing slops, etc., into it; or
contrary, its excellent condition, accord
ing to the side they represented. The
investigation revealed the fact that the
lane needed grading. The importance of
the case was great, bat doubtless our
readers will suffer no anxiety by not
knowing the result.
No other business being presented the
Council adjourned.
. Year.
A rumor was in circulation yesterday
that a defalcation had been discovered in
prominent mercantile house on the Bay,
day or two since, and that the affair had
already been carried into the courts. In
quiry into the matter, which at first
Beemed shrouded in great mystery, de
veloped the foUowing facts, which, as they
became pretty well known by nightfall,
we will state plainly as we ascertained
them:
In the house of Boehm, Bendheim &■
Co., tobacco and segar manufacturers and
dealers on Bay street, Mr. J. Baumber-
ger has officiated as book-keeper, at a
salary we. understand, of $1,200 per an
nnm. This is not a large sum, bat the
style in which the book-keeper lived in
duced the firm to think that he made it
go a long way, in fact created the suspi
cion that he had other resources. Such
intimations being casually made to the
summer up of accounts, the explanation
was given that his wife had brought from
Europe with her a little inheritance of
£2,000.
The explanation served to allay any
suspicions that may have been aroused
for the time being, but a recent exami
nation of the books of the concern re
vived them. There were certain entries
which were not exactly according to ap
proved method, and a more searching in
vestigation revealed the fact that about
three thousand dollars were unaccounted
for in a satisfactory manner.
It appears that the defalcation had ex
tended over a period of four months, the
sums abstracted being of various amounts,
and that recently Baumberger had pur-
' furniture and
of a rather
for a man with
ear. An interview
followed, in which the information was
given Mr Baumberger that his peculiar
financiering had been discovered and had
not met with very cordial appreciation by
the firm.
An invitation was extended him to
thus avoid trouble, and
this effect are now in
£ In the meantime
the firm h^ve'taken measures to prevent
any sudden disappearance on the part of
their late book-keeper. At present, there
seems to be, so far as could be learned,
no immediate prospect of the affair being
satisfactorily settled.

Whereas, The parasite plant called the
mistletoe, known to exist in various por
tions of tho world in different species, but
only one genus, and whiob is recognized
generally as the Phondendon, or “tree
thief,” from its destruction of every tree
on which it takes root in its bark, is in
our midst on many trees in our Forest
City, working their destruction surely,
although gradually;
Resolved, That the attention of the
Street and Lan* Committee be respect
fully called to the subject, and that they
be requested to give their immediate at
tention to the matter, as the plant m
about to flower (in this climate m April),
and if the fruit or berry be allowed to
mature for another year, they will con
tinue to spread this nuisance in accord
ance with its known law of propagation.
p^«ri.n Arnold, after the reading of
the resolution, stated that his attention
had been called to this parasite for many
years. It was an important matter, but
unfortunately the evil was so high up that
it was not noticed. The effects of the
parasite, its rapid propagation, and the
Jraeat injury resulting from them were
depicted by the Alderman in a very
forcible and interesting manner. The
speaker asserted that unless some mess-
ures are taken to prevent the devastation
of this radical parasite in less than ten
years Savannah will have lost her prestige

YVe had thought that Frank Leslie's
Lady’s''Magazine had reached the acme
of perfection, but upon glancing over the
April number discover additional evi
dences of fertility of genius in beauty and
art. The number is a gem of typography
on literature, whilst the sketches,
stories and miscellaneous engravings are
of a very superior character. ‘‘The Ob
jects of Love in All Ages,” which find
illustration in a serits of humorous cuts,
will amuse and interest the old as well as
the young. A large chart and mammoth

i given them, as in all that

The last two have elegantly executed
frontispieces. Godey’s gives “The Lease

itation of “The Schoolmaster and
Both Puzzled.” Either of the
three, we feel assured, will prove a most
acceptable present to a lady friend, and
young gentlemen who desire the eyes of

call at the news depot and secure a copy

“Ambl
or, A Scene In the
Georgia Legislature of 1874.”
YVe have received from the author, Mr.
T. R. Mills, Jr., Representative from
Chatham, a pleasantly written little
comedy entitled, as above. The point in
the comedy is made- fipon Hon., C. A.
Nutting, member from Bibb, who was, it
is- alleged, detected in a pretended at
tempt to pass a bill, for selfish purposes
and to ifiblige-eome influential constitu
ents andto winch He was personally op
posed. In compliance with the wishes of
these friends, Mr. N. agreed to introduce
the, bill, being anxious to secure the
nomination for Congress from his district
at the approaching convention, but took
measures secretly to have the bill killed
by getting itreferred to a committee, and
having that committee to report unfavor
ably. Through, the skill of the member
from Chiatham, who.had got wind of it,
this little scheme was circumvented and
Mr. Nutting was forced to acknowledge
that he was not in favor of the bill he had
introduced. The hit is amusing and is
well told. The comedy is dedicated to the
editors of the Macon Telegraph, and Mes
senger, in consideration of kind allusions
to the course of Mr. Mills in this very
matter? It will doubtless afford much
amusement to the people of Bibb county,
