The Third Georgia—The Rendezvous in
Virginia.
Colonel Claiborne Snead has issued a
circular to the surviving veterans of the
Third Regiment of Georgia Volunteers
in reference to the reunion of the regi
ment at the scene of their first year’s
service and the home of many cherished
friends—the city of Portsmouth. Virginia
—on the fourth and fifth of August next,
from which we make the following ex
tracts as of interest to the members in
this section:
“Members of the regiment, and friends
invited by them, can procure tickets for
the round trip, good for twenty days, for
$12 each. Efforts will be made, and
doubtless consummated, for transporta
tion over the Georgia roads at half rates.
“Each company will report, an noon as
possible, by letter to Capt. A. A. Winn,
Secretary of the Survivors’ Association,
at Savannah, Ga., stating the name and
number of veterans, and the number of
friends invited by them, proposing to
join in the excursion.
“Each company will provide its mem
bers with a badge of ribbon marked
“ Third Georgia Regiment,” and bearing
the letter of the company, and see that
the baggage is distinctly labelled with the
name and company of the owner.
“Colonel R. B. Nisbet, a former com
mander of the regiment, will deliver the
regular address on the occasion of our
reunion.
“Assemble then, comrades, in Augusta
on the 2d of August next. A few hours
will transport us to the scene of our en
trance upon that military career which,
with all its hopes and anticipations, its
glories and reverses, is now in the past.
There let us renew, face to face and
hand in hand, a comradeship which,
formed amkM&e glitter of steel and with
the flapping of warlike banners, still sur
vives in the scattered and peaceful rem
nants of that prdfccf whioh kept
its guns ready and its flag^ unspotted to
the last.”
Death of Dnniel MedoaneH.
We noticed briefly in yesterday’s issue
the death of the former proprietor of
McConnell’s European House of this city.
During the day we received a special tele
gram from Augusta giving additional in
formation upon the subject. Mr. Mc
Connell, who recently took charge of the
hotel at Aiken, was in Augusta on Friday
last, and had an attack of illness at the
Augusta Hotel, which was not considered
serious, and he returned to Aiken on Sat
urday morning. About midnight Satur
day he died suddenly. On Sunday after
noon a post mortem examination was
held, and it was discovered that death
was caused by inflammation of tho bowels
and congestion of the lungs.
Personal.
Mr. Joe Aunspaugh, the gentlemanly
representative of Messrs. Inman, Swan &
Co., of this city, left for Atlanta and
North Georgia last night, on a business
tour for the firm. We take pleasure in
recommending him to our friends up the
country.
Capt. W. W. Paine, one of the Board
of County Commissioners, left last even
ing by rail with his family on a summer
trip to Virginia. We tender our worthy
friend our best wishes for a pleasant visit
and safe return to his friends, from whom
he will receive a cordial welcome.
A Negro Shot.
Yesterday afternoon, whilst a party of
negroes were skylarking in Robertsville,
one trooper, who was flourishing a pistol
in a warlike style, accidentally discharged
the weapon and the ball found a lodging
place in the fleshy portion of the thigh
of a colored brother named Liukrum.
The wounded trooper was carried from
the field and Dr. Harden was summoned
to interview him. The ball was extracted,
the wound dressed and Linkrhm was ad
vised to be quiet a few days, when he
would be enabled to resume his position
among the “pirooters.”

The Word u Sozodont,”
Which is fast becoming a household word, is
derived from the Greek, and composed of two
words, Sozo and Odontes. “Sozo” translated,
means to preserve. “Odontes” the teeth”—
“Sozodont,” a preserver of the teeth. And it is
true to its name. For beautifying and preserving
the teeth, hardening and invigorating the gums,
and correcting all impurities of the breath, it is

GALA DAY AT ISLE OF HOPE.
The Regatta—An Immense Turn Out.
As was anticipated, the boat races at
Isle of Hope yesterday attracted to that
favorite resort an immense concourse. We
have never on any previous “fourth” seen
so large an attendance of visitors at the
Isle, and we look upon the mammoth as
semblage of yesterday as a practical evi
dence of the growing popularity of the
resort. A string band was provided by
Superintendent Haines, and the devotees
of Terpsichore were enabled to enjoy
themselves to their hearts’ content.
3ine trains, averaging eleven cars each,
were run during the day, and with the ex
ception of the last outgoing train every one
was crowded. In fact, the passengers would
have been more comfortable had there
been two additional cars to the 3:25 p. m.
train, which carried down no less than
eight' hundred persons. The jam was
simply immense, and scores were
compelled to hang on the rag
ged edge, as it were. Every
body, however, was in genial humor,
and the scrouging was taken in good part,
though, owing to the heat, it was any
thing but pleasant. We are pleased to
say that although between two and three
thousand persons were transported over
the road, there was not the slightest ac
cident or interruption to any of the nine
trains. This speaks well for the very ex
cellent management of the efficient and
indefatigable Superintendent, George S.
Haines, Esq.
At the Isle the scene was a most ani
mated and brilliant one, especially dur
ing the early part of the afternoon. The
elegant pavilion over the water, fronting
Buckingham’s, was thronged with merry
dancers and promenaders, and was also
the resort of those who fancied comfort
able and pleasant positions from which
to view the goodly scene stretching be
fore them, including a full sweep of the
race course. Along the entire bluff
which was a rather difficult task, and
many were compelled, though apparently
not unwillingly, to remain over until the
last train, which left the island at 8:53,
reaching Savannah on time, 9:20, and
thus ended the celebration at Isle of
Hope, an occasion which will be remem
bered by many for the pleasures it
brought.
The Parade of the Jasper Green—An
Incident of the Day.
In accordance with time-honored cus
tom. the Jasper Greens yesterday cele
brated the glorious Fourth. The com
pany assembled on their parade ground
at 8 o’clock in the morning, to the num
ber of about thirty, under command of
Capt. John Flannery, and. after being
formed, marched to the Park extension,
where they were exercised in the school
of the company. They then took up the
line of march to their drill room to par
take of a collation furnished by Lieut.
McGrath’s platoon, the unfortunate losers
at the target contest on the first of May
last. On the route an incident occurred,
well in keeping with the associations of
the day, and worthy of special mention.
The heavy shower of the morning caught
the company as they were nearing the
United States Barracks, corner of Liberty
and Bull streets, and Captain Flannery,
not relishing the idea of those beautiful
plumes being damaged by the rain, sought
refuge under the sally-port of the barracks
on the Drayton street side.
Lieut. Van Ness, the officer of the
day, discerning their presence, came for
ward and extended a cordial invitation to
the Jaspers to occupy the spacious veran
dahs, and desired the officers to accom
pany him to his private quarters, where
they were very hospitably entertained by
him. As it is the custom now-a-days to
“shake hands across the bloody chasm, "
it is presumed that not only was this
ceremony performed, but that there was
something besides hand-shaking.
FLIES.
Houm Flies, "and Flies, Tine Flies, and
Ochet Flies.
w The rain having ceased, the company
could be seen groups of friends, sitting I rs>ssembled inside the barrack enclosure.
g Uar( j 0 f the garrison turned out to
salute them (as is customary, according
to army regulations, when an armed
body of troops approaches), the Greens
then marched around the parade plat,
and returned the salute to the guard on
leaving.
This incident is especially significant,
from the fact that it is the first time any
organized body of soldiers that partici
pated in the late war on the Southern
side have entered Oglethorpe Barracks
since its evacuation by the Confederate
authorities December 21st, 1864, nearly
eleven years ago.
After leaving the barracks the Greens
proceeded down Drayton to Bay street,
thence to Monument square, where they
fired their customary salute in honor of
the day, and of that trio of revolutionary
spirits which Savannah loves to honor—
Green, Pulaski and Jasper.
Their volley firing was, as usual, as if
but one gun only had been discharged,
and their marching as they passed up
Bay street was remarked by the bystand
ers as excellent.
On arriving at their drill room they did
ample justice to the good things there
spread before them. The Declaration of
Independence was then read by Lieuten
ant Reilly, and after passing an hour most
pleasantly in toast, sentiment and song,
the company were reformed and marched
to their parade ground, comer South
Broad and Bull streets, and were dis
missed at 12 o’clock.
neath the shady trees, or strolling to and
fro. In brief, it may be said the cele
bration of the Fourth at the Isle
was a huge success. Buckingham
had made due provision for a big crowd,
but doubtless he was pleasantly surprised
to see a concourse far in excess of his
anticipations, notwithstbnding the re
sources of his establishment were taxed
to the utmost to supply the heavy run.
There were noue, however, who failed to
be satisfied, as everything needful in the
liquid refreshment line was forthcoming,
whilst the excellent cook, Maggie, at
tended to the necessities of the dining
room in the best style. The lunch, the
dinner, and the supper, were each com
plete of its kind, and were^iresented in
tempting form.
The event of the day, of course, was the
yacht race, and the probable result was
the topic in the saloon, in the pavilion,
along the bluff, among the ladies as well
as the gentlemen, and the hour for the
start was anxiously awaited by those who
had gone down on the early trains.
There was a strong head-wind blowing
at the time, and it was expected that
skillful and good sailing would be de
veloped.
THE YACHT RACE.
Boats of the three classes were entered
in the yacht race ; those of the first class
to sail a course of twenty miles for a
purse of $75 ; those of the second class,
fifteen miles for $45, and those of the
third class, same distance, for $20. The
entries were as follows :
FIRST CLASS.
Sloop Sunshine, 34 feet, Vice Commo
dore S. P. Goodwin.
Sloop Favorita, 30 feet, Wm. Hone.
Sloop Coquette, 28 feet, J. B. King.

THE START.
Shortly after one o’clock the boats re
ported to the station judges and were
assigned their respective positions. This
required time, and two o’clock had passed
before everything was in readiness for
the start. At last the signal was given,
and the boats of the first class weighed
anchor and started as follows :

The boats of the third class
started at 2:13 with the Greenwich in the
lead. The sight presented from the bluff
when the entire fleet was on the way was
most attractive, and stimulated the bet
ting propensities of the masculine por
tion of the crowd. Pools were sold and
outside bets were made, the Georgie by
this ruling being the favorite of the first
class, the Fleetwing and Hattie Hull of
the second class about even, and the
Maggie and Greenwich of the third class.
The interim between the departure of
the sail boats and the commencement, of
the rowing race was passed as suited the
inclinations of the visitors, though
dancing seemed to be the favorite amuse
ment, and the elegant pavilion was well
patronized.
THE ROWING RACE.
About half-past four o’clock the follow
ing boats entered for the rowing race,
distance one mile, purse of $25, reported
to the judges, and were appropriately
alligned. The entries were as follows :
Coupers—Luta— , stroke ; A. L.
Alden, No. 3; W. Edwardy, No. 2; John
Edmonston, bow.
Dauntless—Mabel—A. N. Bell, stroke;
M. A. Cohen, No. 3 ; R. K. Kirksey, No.
2; W. D. Krenson, bow.
Vernons—Sappho — Wallace Schley,
stroke: Chas. Lufburrow, No. 3 ; O. L.
Tilton, No. 2 ; Julian Schley, bow.
At 5 o’clock the signal was given, and
the boats got a good start. The course
was in view from the pavilion, which, in
consequence, was densely packed with
spectators. About midway the centre
board of the Lulu (Coupers) got out of
place, and she ran aground on the marsh,
opposite the bluff. The race was hence
left to the Vernons and Dauntless. The
latter crew are new candidates for aquatic
honors, and, though unsuccessful in the
contest yesterday, yet the crew displayed
training and muscle, and acquitted them
selves very creditably. May better for
tune attend them next time.
The race was won by the Vernons;
time 5:08. Dauntless second; time 5:11.
Coupers distanced.
RETURN OF THE YACHTS.
About twenty minutes after the con
clusion of the rowing race, the excite
ment, which had in a measure subsided,
was revived by the appearance around
the bend of the river of one of the yachts
and in a few seconds after the sails of
others became visible. The word passed
that the yachts were returning home, and
there was a general flocking to the bluff
to see the boats come in. The time taken
was as follows:
TIME OF RETURN.

The Coquette came in a few minutes
to seven o’clock, after the result was an
nounced, and hence no exact time was
taken.
THE WINNERS.
The Georgie was declared winner of
the first class prize; duration of race,
4 hours, 2 minutes and 30 seconds. Hat
tie Hull winner of the second prize; time
3 hours, 18 minutes and 35 seconds,
beating the Fleetwing about one minute.
Maggie winner of the third class prize;
time of race 3 hours and 31 minutes.
This closed the sport for the day, and
the 7:10 train having arrived, there was a
general hurrying forward to obtain seats,
| COMMUNICATED. 1
The Knights of Pythias Entertainment.
As one who attended tho banquet pre
pared for the members and invited guests
of Excelsior Lodge, No. 8, K. of P., I
must say great credit was reflected upon
Mr. P. J. Hobart, of the Pavilion Hotel.
Meats, cakes, fruits, and other luxuries
of the season graced the festal board,
and the flowing bowl and “long necks”
added no little to the occasion, and the
smiling faces around the board evinced
the gratification of the partakers. Wit,
humor and song prevailed. Robert
Wayne, P. C.^ headed the table, and was
master of ceremonies, and in his polished
manner invited members and guests not
to be bashful, but draw near and partake
of the festal cheer. Mr. R. R. Richards was
then called on for a speech, but poor fellow,
his mouth was too full for utterance, and
his friend, Mr. Wayne, begged to have
him excused, which, amid roars of laugh
ter, was acceded to. The Smith family
was then called upon, and such dodging
was never seen before. But finally the
champion Smith—the valiant Major—
arose and gave them to understand he
was the Smith of ail the Smiths, and not
to be backed down: for the Smiths were
a warlike family, and that was the reason
they were so numerous. His arguments
were good, and his advice, if followed by
the Knights, would make them worthy
and well qualified, and bring success to
their arms, and make them victorious on
every field. All listened with atten
tion, and thought the Major was outdoing
himself.
He sat down amid rapturous applause.
The cricket on the hearth squeaked out
Ketchum, and the sweet warblings of the
songster bursted out with delicious notes.
This was followed by a speech from Mr.
Andrews, aDd those whose pleasure it
was to hear him will bear with them a
sweet memory. Ward’s mermaid song
capped the climax. It brought down
the house. Alas, for the hero! poor
fellow ! How we all pity him, for it was
a de’il of a predicament for Pat to be in.
Richards by this time haring got his
tongue in working order, gave us one of
his clear and concise discourses. It had
tLa merit of being “F”ree, “0”lear and
“B”old, and to the point. The most
sublime speaker of all was Bellissario, and
the attention of the assembly showed
how well his remarks were taken and
received. He looked the Knight, as he
towered above us and spoke as only a
Knight can, as he alluded to his wealth
of Silva, and to his only commander, the
“Lord,” in whom all true Knights should
put their trust and obey. Robert Wayne,
P. G., then got up and said, as many of
the Knights were married men, it was
no more than just and right that we
should make an early close, and proposed
we sing, “Auld Lang Syne,” and with
outstretched arms, locked across the
breast grip within grip, forming a per
fect circle of brotherly love, the old
words rang out on the midnight air.
The chime from the neighboring clock
struck one as the token was relieved, and
we parted for our virtuous homes. In
conclusion, allow me to tender my sin
cere thanks to the Knights for the uni
versal courtesy which I received (al
though not belonging to the order).
They have my wishes for their future
prosperity and continued suceess in
building up their castle walls, even up to
the sky. N.
As the "season -of final examinations and
graduation exercises is in full blast, many
of our readers may be interested in
the following composition which has
been handed us by one of our educational
friends. It is credited to a spirited young
lady of a Georgia High School, and was
read before a large audience, with marked
effect. Although the subject is rather
uninviting at first glance, the youthful
writer, who was remarkable for her
naivete, was rapturously applauded, and
her effort considered the most popular of
the day, in spite of being somewhat en
tomological. Here it is:
What horrid things flies are ! Every
body hates them because they always
give us so much annoyance just when we
are most anxious not to be annoyed.
They seem to be intended specially to
worry us in this life and make us more
ready far an exchange to something bet
ter when the time comes for us to leave
it.
The Bible does not tell us that there
are any flies in Heaven, but speaks of it
as a place of perfect happiness; and this
could not possibly be true if any flies are
to be found there. It tells us, though,
that when the people of Egypt were
visited with ten plagues as a punishment
for their wickedness, one of these was the
plague of flies. They had flies in their
houses and temples, flies at the tops of
the pyramids and in the bottom of the
wells, flies in their hair, and ears, and
eyes, and faces, and undersleeves, and
hats, and bonnets, and chignons; flies
buzzing around and biting them by day
and by night; they could scarcely see
anything but flies, until at last some were
blinded by them, and thus partly com
forted by not seeing them any more.
They would dream about flies as long as
it was possible to sleep at all; on waking
the first sound was the music of ten mil
lion flies, steady and noisy as the chatter
of a class of girls just before the tapping
of the bell. Whenever two Egyptian
girls wanted to kiss each other a fly was
sure to come in the way. Whenever a
flirtation was carried on, and the young
man was about to say something very
sweet, a fly brushed past and took it off
the end of his tongue. Oh! what un
happiness ! It makes one sigh to think
of it.
We are more blessed than those ancient
Egyptians, but we see enough of flies
to know the tortures that must have been
suffered from them. Who has not been
waked at sunrise by a fly that wanted to
make friends with him, crawling deli
cately over his hands and face and neck,
gazing into his ear, as if it were a picture
gallery or a set of Madame Jarley’s wax
figures, then suddenly buzzing off to
alight upon his noser The sleeper
awakes, but the sunlight has no beauty
for him just then, and he tosses his head
to the other side to enjoy the rest o f the
happy dreams which had been so rudely
interrupted. But, under a mistaken idea
of devotion, the active fly “sticketh
closer than a brother,” and crawleth to
the second picture gallery, with
the intention of buzzing again to
the guileless nose: then flits off in time
to escape the cordial slap that followed.
Again the sleeper awakes, but his dream
is gone; and he cannot say his morning
prayers, because his frame of mind is
too revengeful. Opening his Bible, he
reads of “the wicked Jiea whom no man
pursuetb,” and wonders why it was not
written “the wicked jiy instead of the
wicked flea.”
There axe many different kinds of flies.
Cross-eyed people, who love to study
about strange things and delight in hard
words, give them a host of names that
we girls cannot remember; names that
make u& think about the Greek alphabet,
and the shorter catechism, and the Egyp
tian hieroglyphics, because we do not
understand them very well. Common
names have been given to some kinds
though, for we all know of house-flies,
blue-bottle flies, sand-flies, horse-flies,
yellow-flies, shoo-flies and time-flies.
Of all these kinds, the last is the one
about which we hear most The name
that the cross-eyed people give it is
“Tempus fugit;” I know this name, be
cause I heard my teacher say it, and then
call out “Time-flies.” I looked around
to see where they were; but as I did not
see them, they must be very small, and
very swift when they aye passing. Even
their bu- zing cannot be heard, and they
do not bite; yet they seem to be the very
worst of all flies, or at least the grown
people think so, if the girls do not.
Whenever we want to sleep late on Sun
day morning our mothers wake us just
at the wrong moment, talk about time
flies, and say the church-bell is ringing.
Whenever we are drawing pictures upon
our slates, the teacher scowls at us, talks
about time-flies, and asks if we know the
arithmetic lesson. Whenever our older
sisters have young gentlemen in the parlor
with them, they speak in a great hurry
about time-flies, and tell us to go to bed;
but they never say a word about such in
sects to the young gentlemen. Our
fathers always seem uneasy, and look at
their watches, and whisper about time-
flies during the sermon at church. Some
how they never do so at the dinner table;
it is always the house-flies, or the shoo-
flies, that they want to drive away then.
I have never known school girls to talk
about time-flies, yet they do tulk about
a great many odd things. It is always
the grown people who seem to be troubled
about these insect creatures, while we
ourselves cannot perceive them. There
fore, time-flies must be like getting mar
ried; one must be grown up before it is
proper to think about such things.
