A Nice Comparison.
The Port lloyal Commercial, in its last
issue, has an editorial in reference to the
Freedman’s Savings Bank, which closes
in the following vigorous style:
"The persistent dishonesty of the of
ficers of the bonk in enticing ignorant
anil trusting colored men to deposit their
sweat-stained savings in a bank which
these ollicers knew was rotten to the
core, can only be compared in moral tur
pitude to the business of a capper in a
gambling den, or a stool pigeon to a panel
house.’’
We have before us a copy of the pre
mium list for the State Fair, to he held
at Oglethorpe^ Park, Atlanta, commenc
ing October 19th, and continuing one
week. The list is very liberal, and
amounts to $15,000. All the premiums,
except medals and diplomas, will be paid
in cash, the management having decided
to offer no silver plate. In glancing over
the list we notice that there are many
features of interest to our ladies, and as we
think Savannah and Chatham county nan
compete, with credit, with any city and
county in the State, we present* some
extracts from the list concerning speci
mens of home industry, and would urge
upon our fair readers to make entries of
their domestic skill and - industry, es
pecially as the premiums offered are
worth striving for. Under the head of

MILITARY PRIZE.
We have heard of no movement among
our military companies in regard to en
tering for the premiums which we have
already stated were to be awarded the best
drilled volunteer companies, but presume
that the opportunity for retaining the
honor so gloriously won by the Savannah
Cadets at the Macon Fair will not be
allowed to pass. The premiums offered
are as follows:
For the best drilled volunteer military com
pany, of not less than forty members,
rank and file $500 00
Second best 250 00
Third best 125 00
The foUowing named distinguished gen
tlemen have been invited to act as judges
of the contest: Gen. J. E. Johnston, of
Georgia; Gen. John C. Breckenridge, of
Kentucky; Gen. J. B. Hood, of Louisiana;
Gen. J. B. Gordon, of Georgia; Gen. D.
H. HiU, of North Carolina.
THE FIREMEN’S CONTEST.
There are also a number of handsome
promiums open for competition among
the firemen, and as the Forest City pos
sesses a Fire Department, which is sec
ond to none in the State in mate-
riel and point of efficiency, any of our
companies would stand an excellent
chance of winning some of these pre
miums. There is ample time to make pre,
paration and that our gaUant fire brigade
may knowingly consider over the matter,
we annex below the programme adopted
for the occasion.
First Prize-Hook and Ladder Companies

a thirty-foot ladder, ascend and descend
a man, and return the ladder to the

Suicide.
On Saturday morning, Dr. Knorr, Cor
oner of Chatham county, was notified
that Mrs. H. D. Headman, residing at the
southeast corner of Broughton and Bull
streets, had been found dead in her bed.
He proceeded at once to the place, and
summoning a jury held an inquest. The
evidence of two servants, one white and
the other colored, who were examined,
was to the effect that the preceding day
Mrs. Headman had been suffering se
verely with pains in her side and limbs.
During the day the pains, it appears, in
creased in violence, and the sufferer re
marked to the girls that she would rather
die than suffer such agony, and would
kill herself if she couldn’t get relief.
About five o’clock in the afternoon a col
ored man, who had been employed by
Mr. Headman in his plumbing establish
ment, called at the house and found Mrs.
Headman in intense suffering. Some
tune after his arrival the deceased took a
dose of laudanum, said to be about four
ounces, to relieve her pain. The parties
present, somewhat alarmed, told her
that such a quantity of laudanum
would kill her and desired to send for- a
physician, but she would not consent to
it. As it was not unusual for the de
ceased to use laudanum, the attendants,
after her refusal to send for a doctor,
thought there was no occasion for their
fears, and did not press the matter. She
was carried from the sofa in the dining
room, where she was lying at the time
she took the laudanum, to her room imd
placed on the bed, where, after giving
some directions to the servants, she re
marked that she would not live until
morning. Her prediction was verified,
for the white girl, upon awakening about
dawn, discovered that she was dead. The
jury, after hearing these facts, returned
a'verdict of death from suicide.
Mr. Headman left Savannah on Friday
afternoon for Jacksonville on business,
expecting, it is stated, to be absent about
a week. The news of his wife’s sudden
death was telegraphed him, and a reply
received that ho would be back on the re
turn train, which reached here yesterday
morning.
The deceased, we understand, was bom
in Edgefield, District, S. C., a short dis
tance from Augusta, and was about thirty
years of age.

The Marine Hospital.
We have received the foUowing note
from Dr. Stone, surgeon in charge of the
United States Marine Hospital, in refer
ence to the charges made against the in
stitution by certain inmates. The inves
tigation invited by Dr. Stone is, perhaps,
under the circumstances, proper, and it
is to be hoped will be made. The charges
of ill treatment, <fcc., have come from
those who were inmates, and they have
not been denied. A retraction of two of
the seamen, who signed the original bill
of complaint, one a minor, hns been pub
lished. There has been no denial of the
charge that a negro man, and he not
a seaman, was forced into the crowded
apartment with white men, and whilst
wo know nothing personaUy in regard to
the condition of affairs at the hospital,
we are impressed with the belief that
there is some basis for the complaints, as
the parties who made them express their
wiUingness to substantiate their asser
tions on oath. Most of them are yet in
the city and can easily be summoned
before the committee and put upon their
oaths as to the justice and correctness of
the charges they have aUeged. We are
entirely impartial in the matter, and if
upon a thorough investigation, after an
examination of these seamen, the com
mittee find they are not sustained, we will
cheerfuUy publish the report, with suoh
comments as the case will warrant. It is
true, as Dr.'Stone states, that he is only
responsible to the government for the
management of this hospital; but it is
equally true that the government desires
her seamen to be well treated and cared
for, and if they are not the fact should
be made bnown. The only mode these
seamen nad for making known their
grievances was through the columns of
the local press, and as their statements
purported to be a plain narration of facts
and were devoid of personaUties, we ac
corded them this privilege. This in
vited investigation, which they should
urge, will give them even a better oppor
tunity to prove their assertions, if they
have been weU founded. The following
is Dr. Stone’s invitation for an inves
tigation:
Fosest City Mabini; Hospital, 1
Savannah, July 11, 1874.)
Editor Homing News :
In your issues of the 8th and lltlrinst.
there appears very serious charges agamst
the management of the Marine HospitaL
In reply I will simply say that although
only responsible to the United States
Government for the management of this
hospital I am ready and willing to receive
a committee from the Medical Society of
this city, appointed for the purpose of
investigating the manner in which sea
men are provided with hospital relief.
Respectfully,
Geo. H. Stone, M. D.,
Surgeon in charge.
A few years ago Gen. Geo. P. Harrison
had working upon his rice plantation
near Cherokee, about twelve miles from
the city, a large force of negroes. This
gang, about two years since, became dis
gusted with labor and left the place,
going no one knew where, but it was
believed somewhere in the neighborhood,
as some of them occasionally returned to
Gen. Harrison’s place. They, however,
gave no intimation as to their where
abouts. Not long since'Gen. Harrison
learned that there was a settlement in a
pine barren, about ten miles from the
city, and on last Friday condnded to hunt
it np, and see who the people were and
what they were doing. As he approached
the place he encountered a negro named
Hector, whom he recognized as having
been at one time in his employ. The
negro seemed very glad to see the Gen
eral, and informed him that his daugh
ter was sick, and asked him to go and
look at her. Gen: Harrison- complied,
and was conducted by the negro to a mis
erable looking thatched hnt, one of a
number in the barren, and which was
barred up. Hector removed the bar
and invited the General to entery
bnt a most horrible smell that was
emitted rendered this impossible at
first Upon later examination into this
miserable structure, the form of a
girl, about seventeen years of age, was
discovered lying on- her ride on the
ground. The poor creature’s mind was
gone, and she was evidently in pain.
Around her were pieces of Com-oob and
watermelon rind. In attempting to move
the demented girl it was found that her
face was so imbedded in the dirt as to
render considerable effort necessary.
There she was dying, slowly bnt surely,
a poor miserable lunatic, in dirt and filth.
Gen. Harrison, observing her condition,
at once told her father that he should
have come to the city and reported the
case in order that Hie girl oould be sent
to the lunatic asylum, where she would
have been properly cared for, when the
negro, in great surprise and astonish
ment, said he had never heard there was
a lunatic asylum in the State.
Gen. Harrison, on his arrival in the
city, laid the matter before the proper
authorities, and on Saturday the girl was
brought to town and furnished with
quarters in jail, where she will remain
until the County Commissioners at their
next meeting make the necessary ar
rangements to have her sent to the luna
tic asylum.
It appears that this settlement, which
is an isolated place, is occupied by a num
ber of negroes, who, from some strange
freak, have been herding together in
miserable huts for the past two years.
The land is very poor, and with the ex
ception of a few sickly patches of com
and potatoes no attempt at cultivation has
been made. As these negroes have had
to subsist in some way, the only infer
ence is that they have been preying
upon the farms in the vicinity. Bnt for
the timely discovery made by Gen. Har
rison, and his prompt action, there is no
doabt this insane negro girl would have
died in hunger and filth, almost uncared
for.
French Benevolent Society—A Flan for
AidioR Unemployed Frenchmen.
Editor Morning News: f
The French Benevolent Society of Sa
vannah has for a long time been im
pressed with the idea of giving assistance
to Frenchmen without work, in a more
efficacions manner than it has been able
to do, notwithstanding the good will of
its members, and it occupied itself at its
meeting on Thursday last to find the best
mode of being able to assist its country-
2 the means of sustenance.
The depressed state of business having
left since one year, particularly at the
North, many persons without work, and
consequently without resources, many of
these persons badly informed, thinking
to better themselves elsewhere, came
South to seek for work, which they can
not find North.
The Society, with the conviction that
something better might be done than to
give help in money, always insufficient,
have thought to make an appeal to all
persons of this section of the country who
are in position to give work, of whatever
kind, and assure them at the same time
that they will be rendering the State
some service by accepting the offer of
imnfU which are often wanted.
The Society has then set to work im
mediately, and has appointed a perma
nent committee empowered to create an
intelligence office, and to manage the
same.
This committee desiring to begin at
once with its work, appeals to your well
known kindness, and beg you to insert
this communication in your paper.
The committee wishes to make known
to the surrounding country that it is
ready to receive all the demands that will
be made, and will do all in its power to
fill the same, its fixed intention being to
give employment but to those who, in its
judgment, will appear to deserve its as-
'stance. - _ _

A Colored Troop oh the War Path.

S. bayonet, but failing to accomplish this
commendable effort, was put swat* to
cool off. He will be pranced before a
magistrate to-day to answer to the charge
of assault with intent to murder. This
is a nice rooster to be entrusted with
arms, now surely. This feat shows he
has an excellent appreciation of the use

In this connection we may mention
that bankruptcy proceedings have been
materially changed by the amended bank
ruptcy law, recently passed by Congress
and approved on the 22d of June last.
Under thiB law it is requisite in all cases
of involuntary bankruptcy that the peti
tion for adjudication must be made by
one-fourth of the creditors representing
one-third the amount of liabilities, and
this provision applies to all cases of in
voluntary bankruptcy commenced since
December 1st, 1873.
This law also makes some important
changes in the matter of the discharge of
bankrupts in both voluntary and involun
tary cases:
First that in cases of compulsory or in
voluntary bankruptcy all the provisions
of the old act requiring the payment of
any proportion of the debts of Hie bank-
rupt, or the assent of any portion of bis
creditors as a condition of his discharge
from his debts, shall not apply, but' he
may, if otherwise entitled thereto, be
discharged by the court in the same man
ner and with the same effect as if he had
paid such per centum (fifty) of his debts,
or as if the required proportion of his
creditors had assented thereto; and, sec
ond, that inf cases of voluntary bank
ruptcy no discharge shall be granted to a
debtor whose assets shall not be equal to
thirty per centum of the claims proved
against his estate, upon which he shall be
liable as principal debtor, without the as
sent of at least one-fourth of his creditors
in number and one-third in value.

Senator Bayard on National Politics.
The New York Tammany sachems cele
brated Independence Day by an old-
fashioned-talk in the “wigwam.” States
man-like speeches were made and much
sound political advice given. Among
others a letter from Senator Bayard, of
Delaware, was read. In it he says:
“I am hopeful of the future in this,
that it seems scarcely possible the thonght-
fnl conscientious and patriotic men of
our country can any longer be kept apart
in political action by the reiteration of
those hollow catch-words which for so
many years have filled the Radical press
and the months of their party leaders,
chiefly uttered to provoke sectional and
partisan animosities, and which have with
them entirely taken the place of argu
ment and that reasonable discussion
needful in public affairs. The broad
quesHon—ever and anon arising—old as
the hills, and now beseeching the ear of
the American people for recognition and
setUement in this generation is, whether
limitation upon the powers of those who
rule us shall be insisted upon, or whether
in the name of the general welfare, and
under the old, crafty and specious plea of
public safety, the people shall be
deprived of local self - government,
and our Federal system of States united
nhnli harden into the iron form of a cen
tralized government, controlled by class
and moneyed interests. Well may yon
cite the ‘burning shames’of Louisiana and
Arkansas! Would to heaven the list
ended even there! Bnt add Florida,
Alabama, and the District of Colombia,
and still the catalogue is incomplete.
How slowly and unwillingly has the hand
of the spoiler been withdrawn from the
pocket of our merchants! Within how
few weeks have we seen the great labor
and difficulty with which the opponents
of the administration at Washington have
procured a repeal of those laws which
laid our entue mercantile community
powerless at the feet of a band of special
agents and informers, with their hired
robbers of private fortune and assassins
of personal reputation! Shall the indig
nant and alarmed protest, scarcely a week
old, of the worthy Governor of the State
of Virginia, addressed to the President
of the United States, against the lawless
and insolent orders of Attorney General
Williams, issued in relation to the local
elections in the city of Petersburg,
fall unheeded on the ears of American
freemen? Let us hope not; but
rather let ns hope that the
hearts and minds of our country
men, ignoring party prejudices and ties,
may be opened and awakened on this
coming anniversary of the hearty and in
dependent resolution of their forefathers
to the necessity of imposing and main
taining constant cheeks upon official
power. This is the broad issue underly
ing the vast field of our political contro
versies. If by common consent we all
join in giving over to punishment the
citizen who has infracted the law, how
much more severely should wo visit abuse
and usurpation of power by the ruler to
whom we confided it? Are not our liber
ties in greater danger from the latter
f»ingg of offenses than the former? And
is not the atmosphere of our times redo
lent with indifference and disregard of the
solemn pledges to legal and constitutional
limitations upon power, executive, legis
lative, and alas, judicial? And if such
pledges are to be kept, who shall be relied
upon to keep them but honest men?
“The Democratic party can furnish
such men; and such men only are wor
thy to be guides in the holy strife for
political reformation so needed in
the land. Let us present as our can
didates all over the Union none bnt men
of unstained reputation and character,
and the first great step on the onward
march will be well and hopefully taken. ’
Shouldn’t Wondeb. — The Louisville
Courier-Journal says: “Five murders in
seven days, all committed within the
limits of four adjoining counties, have
naturally somewhat agitated the Blue-
grass region. Meanwhile the pestiferous
masked gentry of Franklin county have
been ont on another of their rascally ex
cursions.”
to be located at Jackson, Tennessee. The
question was decided at Nashville week
before last by the locating committee ap
pointed for the purpose. The citizens of
Jackson and Madison county offered the
University a solvent subscription of
$4G,625, payable in five annual instal
ments, commencing in November next
the West Tennessee College grounds and
buildings valued at $50,000; that insti
tution’s endowment fund, $40,000;
city lot, $350; and fifty-six acres of real
estate valued at $10,000—a total of
$150,000.
The Baptists of Tennessee are to meet
in convention at Chattanooga* on the
28th inst., to elect a board of trustees for
the new University, and that board will
then select a faculty, with a view to an
early opening of the institution in the
West Tennessee College buildings.
This will make three new sectarian
Universities established this year in the
South: the Presbyterian, the Methodist,
and the Baptist. The Episcopalians, it
will be remembered, have for some years
had a University at Sewanee, Tennessee.
Dog Denistbt.—The Newark Register
prescribes the following dental prooess
as a secure means of guarding against
the bites of mad dogs. Fortunately in
this benighted region we are in no danger
of mad dogs or strong minded women,
and yet it is just as well that our readers
should be posted as to the most approved
method of treating the former:
‘A stick placed between the molar
teeth of yonr dog, a cord so fastened as
to keep him from opening his month any
wider or getting the stiok out of place,
eight minutes’ lively work with a file
upon the tearing teeth, which good dogs
do not need since they have quit the so
ciety and habits of wolves, to which race
they have the same close kinship as men
have to monkeys—and there is no bitii
from that dog. Dr. Hammond show)
how a dog thus operated upon was unable
to break the skin of a hand placed in his
mouth, and yet was incapacited neither
from eating meat nor any useful purpose.
File your dog’s “canine” or fighting teeth,
instead of muzzling him, will soon be
the mandate of dog-fearing Mayors and
corporations.
The charbon is prevailing to an alarm
ing extent in the parish of Concordia,
La., and the police jury have been com
pelled to take steps to prevent the fur
ther spread of the fatal disease. The
Opelousas Journal reports that in some
sections of St. Landry parish, where
there has been high water, the malady
has occasioned great loss. Some planters,
with large flourishing crops, have lost all
their work stock. The disease has been
particularly fatal to mules, less so to-
horses, or the latter have not been so lia.
ble to attack.
Expensive Eutv Cbackebs.—At Circle-
ville, Ohio, on the 4th, a firecracker
caused a fire which destroyed Denman’s
carriage factory, two dwellings and the
market house. Loss $25,000, about one-
fourth of which was insured. A dear
firecracker. On the same day, at Pon
tiac, Illinois, a firecracker caused a fire
which resulted in the entire destruction
of the Phcenix Hotel, the Court House
with all the county records and a block
of seven large stores, the finest in the
town. Loss $200,000. Insurance not
known.
Troublesome Manitoba. —Manitoba
seems to be a worse than debatable
ground. The case at Riel, the extradition
of “Lord” George Gordon and one or two
more such affairs have brought the region
into disrepute. Now comes a story to
the effect that eight men, headed by one
Charles Hart, have made a raid upon
some Manitoban traders, representing
themselves to be deputy marshals from
Dakota, and have robbed their luckless
victims of much property in furs and
skins. Let Manitoba be disciplined.
Advance in Linen.—A letter from
New York of Wednesday evening says:
“The extensive strike in the Belfast,
Ireland, linen manufactories is having a
tendency to stiffen the prices of all that
description of goods in this market.
Contracts which had been made for goods
that would have been delivered here in
the ordinary course of manufacture will
be interfered with, besides which home
production would be limited. Private
dispatches per cable are to the effect that
if the men continue to hold out the mills
will be closed until such times as it would
pay to reopen them.”
Here is bright and brave news from the
Old North State, which it does onr heart
good to hear. The Raleigh News of yes
terday says:
“By St. Paul the work goes bravely
on.” From every portion of the State we
receive the most cheering intelligence of
the progress of the campaign. The
death knell of Radicalism will be sounded
in North Carolina on the 6th of Augnst.
An outdoor religious meeting in Cincin
nati last Sunday was taken to be a crusa
der’s affair, and was disturbed by a half-
intoxicated German. Another young Ger
man interfered, and knocked the first one
down, and six others in succession, who
came np to support him.
The Washington Chronicle says that the
remains of Mr. Lincoln, at Springfield,
were viewed a few days since, the specta
tors saying that the body is as natural,
apparently, as the day it laid in the State
House, with the exception that the upper
lip is somewhat swolen.
The “local option" law of Mississippi is
so effective that it is said few if any
licenses have been granted in that State
since the passage of the act, last April
It requires a majority of votes over 21,
and females over 18, residents in the dis
trict, to sigh the petition for license.

Weekly Rename of the New York
Market.
New York, July 11.—The market for cotton
on spot has steadily declined in values of classes
at reduced prices. There has been rather more
doing on opening account, but no export business
lever. Shippers are not in the market, and
>rices will have to go decidedly lower to induce
mainess from this source. In futures the specu
lative demand has not been very brisk, and at
times there was a marked absence of prominent
operations. The bull movement has entirely sub
sided, and there is very little to obstruct the
downward tendency of prices. Total sales dar
ing the .week 98,466 bales, of which 94JS00 bales
were on contract and 3,966 bales for immediate
delivery, chiefly cm spinning account.
