IIaII’m Combination, On Monday night the Theatre will bo opened by tlie above-named company, who come recommended to the Savannah public by the endorsement of the metropolitan press. In 1 harlestou, where they presented the beautiiul play of the “Two Orphans,” they met with a most enthusiastic recep tion. The p'av is giveu in eiyht acts, and is complete. The Xetrs aud Courier says the presentat on of the play of the “Two Or phans” at the Academy Tuesday night hardly lacked the charm of novelty to the large audience present, so superior was it in dramatic effect and artistic mounting to tho version of the same drama lately given on our boards. It is not too much to say that it was a thoroughly satisfactory perform ance. Though the company is much stronger in numbers than those wbich usually appear in Charleston, tlio acting throughout was marked by an evenness rf merit which we do not often see outside the best metropoli tan theatres. Tbe Beenes were carefully set, aud tbe dresses were notably rich and elab orate. The La Froehard of Mrs. Rodgers, to our miod, was the most striking bit of acting in the piece ; though tin re was not oue of the leading characters that was not given with croditab e spirit and skill. The Two Orphans will be repeated to-night, and if a stirring play, admirably enacted, counts for anytbiug. there will not be a vacant seat in tbe bouse. Drpnrlure of (lie Sovuuintb l><-l«*i(nt<-m. The gentlemen who were appointed to represent Savannah in ’.he Southern Pacific Railroad Convention, which meets in St. Louis ou the 23d iust., left the city last night on a special car provided by the Cen tral Railroad, which, we understand, will go thiough to St. Louis. The delegation in cluded the two gentlemen appointed from Savannah by Governor Smith to represent the State, aud is as follows: City—Mayor E. C. Anderson, Dr. R. D. Arnold, Vice Chairman of Council; A der- men John Cunningham and John A. Doug lass. State General Joseph E. Johnston aud Colonel W. T. Thompson. Atlantic and Golf Railroad—William Hun ter, Esq. Central Railroad—J. R. Saussv, Esq. City at Large—Captain Henry Blum Death of an Old till/.rn. Mr. Emanuel Sheftall, an old and well- known citizen of Savaun&li, died at his resi dence ou Tatnall street, yesterday morning at 3 o’clock. Mr. Sheftall was a uativo of Savunuah, aud was aged about sixty-seven years. His death will l>e deeply regretted by our older citizens, who knew him well and esteemed him highly. For many years be occupied a position as teacher in the Sa vannah Free School, aud was also clerk of the inaiket during the war. He was one of the oldest members of tbe M. E. Church, from wbich edifice his funeral will take place this morning. Savnnnufa Kill** Anr>orintlon. An interesting meeting of this Association was held at their rooms last eveuiug. A number of new members were elected aud considerable business in the interests if the Association was transacted. Among other action taken was the unanimous pass age of the following resolution, wfiioh was offered by Mr. W. C. Vincent: Jiesolced, That tbe thanks of this Associa tion be tendered to Colouel William Rogers, General Superintendent of the Central Rail road, aud to Major William U. Ross and Mr. Frank B. Bevill, of Macon, for kindness aud courtesies shown our team ou the 13tb aud 19th nit. Fire This .Horning. Between two and three o’clock this morn ing an alarm of fire was sounded from box 12, caused by smoke issuing from the cellars of tbe buildiug corner of St. Juii&n and Whitaker streets, occupied by Mr. G. S. Her bert, H. A. Elkius aud others. The upper floors were not distui bed, but tbe fire ap paratus deluged tbe cellars with water, and at half-past three o’clock all danger was over and the engines returned to their houses. We did uot learu the extent of the damage. Dedication Service*. It will be observed by our special notice column that St. James’Tabernacle, colored, corner of Randolph and Terry streets, will be dedicated to-morrow morning, at eleven o’clock, with interesting ceremouies. The public generally are invited to be present, aud special accommodations have been pro vided for the white friends of the congrega tion. A Fine Chance for Emigrant*. By a notice elsewhere it will be seen that Mr. A. B. Rigcs, of Statesboro, offer* Tor sale bis plantation and all its fixtures. It is conceded to be tbe best place in Bulloch county.

Bring in vour advertisements for the Sunday Telegram early in the day. Can you establish a person’s ownership to anything by bis mother and another man ? The Suwlay Telegram is conceded the best Sunday advertising medium Savannah baa ever had. Remember, if you want local patronage a good advertisement in the Sunday Telegram will assist you. As will be observed by the court calendar, considerable work was done in the Superior Court yesterday. Jake Horn, o'lr harness maker, has sent another beautiful set of harness to Savau- nab.—Bainbridge Democrat. More lira are told in tbe sentence “I am glad to see you,” than in any other six words in the Euglish language. What occupation do the colored habitues of the gallery in the Superior Court follow when the court is not in session? The Sunday Telegram contains all the latest dispatches, local and general news, and is an excellent advertising medium. Nothing of interest was gathered in tbe Magisterial circuit embracing the temples of Magistrates Abrams, Elsinger, Marsh and Hart. The Youths’ Historical Society have post poned their debate to next Thursday night, on account of tho repairs which the hall is undergoing. The gallery in the Superior Court room yesterday contained, by actual count, 135 able-bodied negro men and women, who lounged there the entire day. A Confederate and Federal Colonel were antagonistic counsel in a case before the Su perior Court yesterday, and the former made the best showing by convicting the prisoner. Tho steamship Falcon will take the place of the America on the Baltimore and Savan nah lice ponding repairs to the machinery of the America, rendered necessary by the late accident. John Robinson, a colored witness in the Superior Court excited the risibilities of tbe spectators by describing a certain party aa “a verv voting fellow, not more than tlflrty or forty years old.” Mr. R-Fatman cleared the British steam ship ISecaoi, Capt. Rose, for Bremen, yes- ♦erdaV,* 1 with the largest cargo that has left this port this year. It consisted of 5,205 bales of upland cotton, weighing 2,409,847 ponuda, and was valued at $340,300. Passengers who know anything about Yeniacsee will bail it as good news that on ami after the 1st of next month tho four trains, the up aud down trains on the Port Royal Railroad and tbe up aud down trains on tlie Charleston aud Savannah Road, will make close connection, thus obviating tbe annoyance of waiting at Yem&ssee. One of the witnesses in tbe ship Valley Forge case now pending in the United States Circuit Court, was asked yesterday if they knew where the bar was [Stone Horse BarJ, when a waggish lawyer remarked in an aside to a colleague,“guess they found ou right quick when they reached Savan nah ” A promising young lawyer was somewhat disconcerted for a moment yesterday after noon, while cross-examining a colored wit ness in tbe Superior Court, in regard to the width of certain streots in Yamacraw, by the sable individual saying, “Oh, I guess you knows mob bout dem streets yuself dan I does.” The .Hozurt Club. The Board of Managers of the Mozart Club, in announcing the opening of the fifth annual series of soirees Musicales(nnce the organization), is gratified at being able to assure the mt-mbi-rs of the club, and tbe public generally, that the season will open under better auspices than ever before. Tin- instrumental department will be un der the direction of Mr. E. Aug. Scbultze, and tho vocal department under Mr.William Lndden; and the Board believes that this country affords no leaders better suited for the positions. The orchestra and chorus will certainly be brought to a degree of effi ciency not hitherto attained. The soloists are Mrs. von dor Hoza- Schultze, piauiste; Miss Arm&ntine Mercier, soprano ; Mr. Scbultze, violinist ; Mr. Braun, violincell is t, and Mr. Geeks, clari- onetist, all well known here, except the two ladies, of whom the board say nothing more than that the highest expectations of the members will be realized. Tbe orchestra has received valuable addition, profes sional and amateur, aud the chorus is com posed of carefully selected vioces. After two years experimenting elsewhere, the ninny*and serious iucouveuiencies suffered have cans* d the board to again lease Mozart Hall, originally built for the club. The hall is, acoustically, the host we have had, and will be reseated. The only drawback is its locatiou so far dowu town. To lesson this inconvenience, arrangements have been made with the threo lines of street cars to be in readiness to carry the public to and from the concerts. The board has undertaken a serious pecu niary responsibility in arranging for so bril liant a season; and while musical success is certain, it remains for the associate mem bers to see that this somewhat hazardous attempt does not result iu financial embar rassment. The first soiree musicale will be gin at the Mozart Hail Wednesday evening, December 1, at 8 } o’clock. By order of tbe Board. L. Knork, Secretary aud Treasurer. Tlie Merger Family. This celebrated family open at the Theatre ou Thursday night f«»r an engagement of three nights, ana our amusement loving people may anticipate a plcasaut entertain ment. The Detroit Free Press has this to say of the troupe : The Berger Family, reorganized and ma terially strengthened since their last visit to Detroit, gave, with the aid of the inimitable S-»l Smith ltussell, one of their charming concerts at tho Opera House last evening. A largo audience gave them welcome, and it is not too much to say that the satisfac tion was universal. For a genteel parlor . ntertainnieut no programme could have been in better taste than that selected for t o first concert. Tho indescribably funny things done, said and sang by Sol Smith Russell provoked roars of laugh ter, and the musical features were applauded with the greatest possible enthusiasm. Miss Anna Berger’s command of the cornet was an agreeable surprise to most of her audience, for it is tho generally received opinion that uo w<jm&n cun ever accomplish much with that instrument. This young lady, however, has a perfect mastery over it, and in accuracy and rapidity of execution, as well as m the clearness of her tones, she is entitled -o rank with those coruetists who have gained fame in that specialty. The exquisite bell music was, as usual, a genuine pleasure to all who heard it; aud the vocal efforts of Miss Alice Storrs, aud tho ’cello solo by Mrs. Klaisv served most happily to round off a pro gramme remarkable* for its numerous at tractions. COURT CALENDAR. Drnlh of Mr. John W. Mortimer. We regret to find in tho Baltimore Sun, of Tuesday, the announcement of tbe death of John W. Mortimer, Esq., which occurred at his residence on Carrollton avenue, in that city, on last Saturday. Mr. Mortimer was the fa her of Rev. G. D. E. Mortimer, rector ol Christ Church, in this city, aud was a most estimable aud worthy gen tleman. For forty years he bad been a prominent mc-rcbaut of Balti more, being the head of the house of Mortimer Ik Mowbray, which, daring its long career, had a reputation for stability excelled by none. He was lor mauy years a nt-mber of the Order of Odd Fellows and had been connected with tbe Methodist Church from his early youth until within the past few years, when be joined the Protestant Episcopal Church, of which he was a member at the time of his death. He was sixty-six years of age. At E«iilUa.

Wetter, set for trial at the present term, was called, Hon. R. F. Lyon, of Macon, plaintiff’s attorney, being present. The de fendant was represented by Hen. Rufus E. Lester. Tbe action was ou a note for $10,- 750, given June 6, 1870, ami upon which cer tain sums bad been paid. After a short argument the case w t hs submitted to the jury, with instructions from the Ju Igo, who rendered the following verdict without leav ing the box: “We, tbe jury, find for tbe plaintiff six thousand nine hundred aud twenty-five dollars and sixt^-six cents, with inter* st from 5th of January, 1875, and costs of suit. The next case called was that of the State vs. John Myers, indicted for simple larceny. The State was represented by the Solicitor General; the accused by Messrs. P. M. A R. W. Russell. The particulars of this case were given in the News at the time of tbe preliminary examination before Magistrate Elsinger, a couple of weeks siuce. The State examined several witnesses, and the defense had opened, when a startling episode occurred, which, for the moment, causid considerable commotion in tbe court room aud abruptly terminated the trial. Whilst Mr. Fred. Myers was ou the witness stand one of the jurors, Mr Richard O’Brien was observed to throw up his hands suddenly, and utteriug a suc- c* ssion of half suppressed groans, tumbled from bis seat before hi* companion jurors, who hurriedly arose, were able to prevent it. The blood gushed from his nose, and he writhed upon the floor for several minutes in apparent agony. The window was thrown up, and water being obtained be soon began to revive, and was lifted to & sitting posture. Dr. R J. Nunn, who had been s*3nt for, shortly made his appearance, and upon examination pronounced Mr. O’Brien to be too ill to serve, any long r. The defense announced their*readiness to proceed with eleven jurors, but the State objected and withdrew tbe juror, aud declared a mistrial. The jury were then discharged tor an hour, and Mr.O’Brien, whose name was ordered to be stricken from the panel, was taken to liis home, having recovered snfficientlv to walk. Tlie case was reassigned for trial on Wed nesday next, at which time the witnesses were notified to be present. Tbe next case called was that of tlie State vs.Ciesar Weston, negro. Larceny after trust. The prosecutor was Henry Murken, who alleged that on tho 15th of April last he en trusted to the accused a Silver watch, valued at fifteen doll irs, which the accused had dis posed of and appropriated the money to his own use, and refused to make any return to the owner, although called npou to do so. The prosecution was conuucted by the Solicitor General; the defense by jir. Geo. W. Owens. The prosecutor, Henry Murken, was placed ou the stand, but his statement was so frivolous and inconsistent, failing utterly to establish the charge, that tho Solicitor General declined to allow him to finish, aud auuouuced that he would abandon the case. Mr. Owens, counsel for tho prisoner, ex- { iressed the desire to have a verdict, be- ieving that tbe prosecution would be de clared malicious. After charge from tbe Judge to this effect, the jury retired, and shortly agreed upon a verdict as follows: We, the jury, find the prisoner not guilty, and tho pfosecation malicious.” State vs. Sarah Hamilton,colored, indicted for burglary in tbe day time, was called, Mr. George W. Owens representing tbe accused. The prosecutor was a negro, who alleged that the accused had entered his room and stolen therefrom divers articles. Ono other witness was examined for the State. The defense introduced no witnesses, and the case was submitted to tbe jury without ar gument, who thereupon retired. The case of Jerry Williams, negro, in dicted for burglary in tbe day time, was then called. The prosecutor was S. E. J. Crawford. Col. Atkins represented the ac cused. It was established by tbe testimony that some of the articles stolen were found in possession of the accused, and ho could give no satisfactory account liow he had ob tained them. Several witnesses wore ex amined for the defense, aud alter argument the case went to th ) jury at quarter to five o’clock. At half-past seven it was announced the jury bad agreed, ami they came into court with a verdict of guilty, accompanied by a recommendation to mercy. Williams was then sentenced to three years in the penitentiary. The next case called was that of the State vs. Charles Wilson, negro, indicted for an assault with intent to murder. Mr. John D. Carter appeared as counsel for the prisoner. The prisoner was arraigned and desired to plead guilty to assault and bat tery, but this was not accepted as a plea to the indictmeut, and the prisoner then pleading “not guilty” to the charge, was placed upon trial. The State introduced two witnesses, oue of whom was John Jackson, colored, tho prosecutor, aud a pretty clear case of an unprovoked assault with a razor was made out. Defendant put up several witnesses, whose testimony amounted to nothing further than an attempt to establish provo cation. Two of these were negroes, who were brought from jail, being at present confined there for misdemeanor. Mr. Carter presented the case for the prisoner in a well considered argument, the atm of which was to impress tho jury that the element neces sary to sustain a charge of intention to com mit murder did not enter into this case; the accused being under the influence of liquor at the time: Solicitor General Lamar made a most tell ing speech, in which the heavy increase in crime among the negroes from idleness and dissipation was forcibly depicted. At tor the charge from the Judge the jury retired, but were absent but a few minutes when they returned with a verdict of “guilty.” The prisoner was thereupon placed in the dock and sentenced to nine years in the penitentiary. The jury in the case of the State vs. Sarah Hamilton* above noted, came into court about teu minutes past 6 o’clock. Laving been out Biuce lj o’clock. Their verdict was, “guilty, with a recommendation to mercy.” Sarah was at once arraigned anil sentenced by the Judge to three years in the peniten tiary. The case of the State vs. James Francis, colored, indicted for assault with intent to murder. N. C. Collier, for defense ; Solici tor Lamar for the State. The case went to the jury about quarter past eight p. m., when the Court took a recess to allow them to consider upon their verdict. At 9 p. m. Judge Tompkins reappeared in court, but the Jury not having agreed and there being no immediate prospect of their doing so, an adjournment was made until 10 o’clock this morning, the jurv. Laving the privilege of bringing in a sealed verdict if they settle matters during the night. This morning the court will hear motions, paaa oeders, ete. CRIMINAL cases ASSIGNED. Bankrupt Roll.

The criminal cases which were to be tried yesterday were continued until Monday af ternoon at 4 o’clock. After wbich the court adjourned. Polire Court. Judge Wm. B. Fleming, presiding. There was only a small d*>ckeft presented for the consideration of the Police Court Judge yesterday morning, and the session was very brief. One individual was charged w’itli being a victim to the old complaint—plain drunk, and was fined §5 au«l costs. Three parties (one white) were arraigned as suspicious characters, and were each lined $3 and costs. A party who has been on the information docket for two .\eeks,charged with allowing disorderly proceedings in his house, was brought to trial aud was fii.ed $15 aud costs. Whereupon the court adjourned. Au KnterpriftiiiK Home Jlanufartory. Passing down Bay street yesterday morn ing, we wore attracted by the bnstle aud activity observable about the manufactory of Mr. J. H. Uuwe, and dropped in to chat a few moments with the enterprising proprie- t jr, who by energy and attention lias built up a llouri.-liing business, and established in Savannah a branch of industry that is no inconsiderable value to our public. We found all bands busily engaged iu packing and shipping goods, whilst in tbe bakery delicious ci ackers aud biscuit wore betug turned out iu immense quantities and with great. rapidity. The estab lishment carries a stock of six hundred bariels of flour, aud on Monday last this average was increased to 1,100. Forty bar rels of flour are baked on an average every day, and when occasion requires this can bo increased. The facilities which Mr. Ruwe possesses enables him to supply orders for biscuit, crackers, ginger snaps, lemon cakes, etc., at better figures to tbe whole sale trade than can be obtained by dealing with Northern firms. In regard to quality, they are fully equal to any brought iutrrtliis market, aud by many are considered supe rior. The advantage dealers hero enjoy is that they can have an order filled at a few hours’ notice, aud get their goods perfectly fresh. Mr. Ruwe is also doing an extensive busi ness iu the manufacture of candies, ami is supplying Florida, Charleston, and various towi s in Sonth Carolina with these goods, and iu every instance satisfaction has been given. We are pleased to learu that our Savannah grocers, realizing that they can obtain just as good, if not better, articles at Ruwe’s bakery, are giving their patronage to this home institution. Dealers should consult Mr. Ruwe before sending North, as they will find that both, in regard to terms and goods,4teey can do as well at home. Philadelphia prices will be duplicated by him, and the fact that he has two of tho best cracker bakers in tho coun try is guarantee that satisfaction will be given. KmciipimI Florida Convicts Captured in Muvnnnnli. In Wednesday’s News a full account was given of the capture by tho police of four negroes concerned iu the ribherj of J. L Zellincker’s store on Monday night, and tbe subsequent discovery of other burglaries. The evidence against these parties is complete, aud tliore is every probability that Chatha t county will not be long troubled with their presence, as tho Superior Court is in ses sion, and such cases sro disposed of expe ditiously. Yesterday, Sergeant Leonard received a. note from Deputy Sheriff Johu H. Browr - of Duval county, who had seen tho *ccoi iu the News, stating that two of the groes, Charles Wilson and Solomon Jackson, were escaped prisoners from Jacksonville. Wilson had served out one term in tho State prison at Tallahassee, and was under sentence for twelve mouths iu the jail at Jacksonville, when he made his escape. Jackson, although a mere youth, had served ono term in the county jail for burglary, and was iu custody for a similar offense when he made his escape. Ho broke into the same store, for the rob bery of which he was first convicted, the very night he escaped, aud left his hat be hind, which was identified. Solicitor General Lamar will doubtless renu mber these little incidents iu tbe career of these two thieves,when they are brought up for trial in the Superior Court. that during the pask week the following proceedings in bankruptcy have been filed in his office: Petitions in voluntary bankruptcy were filed by the following parties, to wit: Be j. F. Cobb, Uutlibert, Randolph coun ty. Arthur Hood, solicitor. Josiah W. Joss«y, Pies ton, Webster coun ty. B. F. Simmons, of Dawson, solicitor. Isaac Rosenblatt, Americus, Sumter coun ty.

In this connection we give, as of gem ral interest, the following rulings in regard to section 9 of the amendatory bankrupt law, passed June 22, 1874. It provides: First. 1‘hat a bankrupt shall be require' to pay no portion of his debts unless the same are proved by deposition in bank ruptcy in regular form. Second. That a bankrupt shall not bo re quired to pay any portion of a debt foi wbich he is bound as surety, though regu larly proved. Third. That a bankrupt shall surrender assets sufficient to equal 30 per cent, of all debts proved (not existing) against him, upon which he is liable as principal debtor, but one-third in value of such creditors proving debts can agree to discharge the bankrupt, without tho assent of the re maining two-thirds iu value of creditors who have proved debts. The result of this condition of the law that the bankrupt is really required to pay only 10 per cent, upon such debts as may be proved against him; in other words to pay 30 per cent, upon one-thiril of the debts proved, aud nothing upon the residue. A >lan Nimiiff. A short time since a young man by the 1 name of Henry Meyer came to Savannah | from Philadelphia to take a place in Ruwe’s steam bakerv. A few days after, whilst en- 1 gaged in fixing a flue in the bakery that had ! gotten stopped up or out of order, a girder j i fell and struck him on the bead, inflicting J a very ugly wound. The wound was sewed up with silver thread, and the injured man appeared to be doing well. On Saturday I i last, however, he disappeared from the place j , wheru he was boarding, since which time 1 nothing has been heard of him. Severs! ! letters, addressed to him, have been re- • ceived during the week at the house where I 1 ho was stopping. His disappearance is shrouded in mystery, and speculation upon I tlie subject is useless. -Rim Adwtistnunts. BUY PURE Capture of n Mewspnper Thief. For some time past numerous complaints have been made by the subscribers to the Morning News of not receiving their pa pers, aud yesterday the carrier on one of the routes discovered a m»gro boy stealing a pa per wbich had just been left. The thief tried to gi-t off by statiuggtLat he was em ployed in tho house and was only getting the paper for his master, but the cook, who was up, proved that he did not belong on the premises, aud he was therenpon taken to the office and treated to a dose of belting and turue*l loose. Ah KnierprininK Denier in llhle**— A Nice ItiiNincftM Broken Up. The negro Thomas McClellan, who wa: arrested on Thursday for stealing ilides, of which mention was mado in the News yes terday, it appears has beou making a busi ness of stealing bides from the Boston steamships for some tune past, and not until Thursday was it discovered who tbe thief was. Magistrate Smith aud bis ofii- ccrs have suspected Thomas, however, and put a negro man on the watch for him, aud Thursday he reported to Magistrate Smith that Thomas bad come to town with a boat load of hides. Tire Magistrate proceeded to the wharf and questioned him as to the ownership of tno hides, when ho replied they belonged to Mr. Loillie. The Magis trate called ou Mr. Ledlie aud asked if he was expecting any hide^4tom the country, and he said no. but that he had just pur chased some from a negro, who was to bring them up from the wharf. He was requested not to pay for the hides until he saw him further about it, aud went away. Later in tbe day he called on Mr. Ledlie, who said the hides had arrived, aud upon au ex animation of them it was found that they were a lot shipped by Mr. Ledlie to Boston tbe week previous, the marks having been rubbed off all but one of tlio hides. Thomas is a notorious thief; only a short time ago ho stole 8omothing from a Bay street merchant aud took it to another place to soil, where it was recognized as the properly of tho merchant. The case will be in vestigated by the Superior Court, aud Thomas will probably go where the wood bine twinctli for fifteen or twenty years. liobbcd in a Negro Den. Amy Brown, an inmate of that notorious den kept by Jane Tarlton, ou Coopershop lane, was arrested yesterday ou the charge of larceny from the person, aud sent to jail by Magistrate Russell. It appears that a white man, who is probably a stranger in these parts, was enticed into tnis den on Thursday night. He very foolishly spent $2, and allowed them to see that be had more money about him. Discovering shortly alter leaving the den that he had lost twen ty-eight dollars, he went to Magistrate Rus sell’s office and had the girl arrested, as stated above. She had invested the money very extensively in dress goods, stockings, towels, false hair, etc., etc., all of which she had when arrest* d. She turned them over to the officer, and acknowledged that they had been purchased with the stolon money. the Reported Annum*! nut I on of One of Carrie’s Crew. It was rumored in Augusta, on Thursday night, that a white man employed on the steamer Carrie, which left Savannah for that city on Wednesday, had been shot and killed by a party of nogroes iu ambush at some point on the river. The rumor allegod that on the last trip of the steamer to Sa vannah, the white man had killed a negro in a difficulty, and his friends had gathered together determined t * revenge his death, an i on the return trip met the steamer about fifty miles below Augusta, and killed tho white man ns above stated. No particu lars could be obtained in Augusta, but the Carrie trill be here to-day when something definite may be gleaned. Splendid Show of Beef. The popular stalls of Mr. James L. Agnew, in the market, will present a most attractive sight to-day, being dressed with a supply of as fine beef aB one could possibly desire to see. It is nothing uncommon for Agnew to have splendid beef, but the supply which he has just received is, if po-s’ble, superior in quality and appearance to any tnat has been oflered this season, aud will uud mbiediy be iu brisk demand. No oue fond of choice beef will pass his stands to-day without securing a supply for tlie morrow’s break fast and dinner. ’ He has also a very excel lent supply of mutton, just received by steamer, m fine order. If you would uot miss this opportunity to procure something really good, call around early. Destruction of a Saw Mill by Fire. About two o’clock in the morning of Thursday fire broke out in the saw and lumber mill of Messrs. Sullivan A Hull, on the Brunswick and Albany Railroad, com pletely destroying the structure and about 60,000 feet of lumber. There was but small insurance on the machinery, and hence this disaster will entail a heavy loss upon Messrs. Sullivan A Hull, who are known as among Savannah s mo*t enterprising business men. The origin of the fire is unknown at pres ent, and although it may not have been the act of an incendiary, the hour at which it was discovered favors that supposition. [C< >M MUMCATKD. ] To tbe Real Kntale Owners. Tho City Marshal having advertised for sale the property of certain persons who refuse to pay the illegal and nnjast tax im posed ou real estate, it behooves all parties interested to come forward immediately and take such action as will cause the city au thorities to do what is right, and let tbe poor man have equal rights with the rich bondholder. What we demand and must have is, “equal taxation according to tbe law of Georgia.” Why should the bond holder, who is worth his hundreds of thou sands, go free, while the poor devil wh- owns a little homo to cover his hoa*l be as sessed 2j per cent. ? Is tbore any justice iu this? We believe in everyone living within his means, and let the authorities so con trol the expenses of the city that they can bo met with a moderate rate of taxation. to acknowledge the right of ibe city to “*mpt certain proparty, but at the same ie this privilege must not he abased, why not tax the banks? Did they con tribute indirectly funds for controlling the election? or do they discount the illegal notes of the Mayor at only 13 per cent, per anuum? We agree with “1)1*1 Principle: ami think tho time h:is come when these evils should be rewodied. Gugie Bourquin. A Nnd Cane of SullerinK and Destitution. Ou Thursday morning a poor woman named Mrs. Anne Kelly, applied to the Mayor of Augusta for a pass to Savaunah, stating that she was anxious to reach a broth er and brother-in-law who live iu Florida. She was from Graniteville, where her husband died about six weeks ago, leaving her with six children, tbe oldest of whom is onlo teu years ol age. This child, a girl, was afflicted, says the Chronicle, “with some disease wbich had caused it to lose its voice and the use of its limbs ; another, five years of age, was dumb and a cripple, and the youngest, a baby, was subject to spasms. The mother carried the oldest girl in her arms ; one of the well children moved along with difficulty with the dumb aud cripple girl, while tbe remaining well child carried the baby. All were barefooted aud in rags. There were two pair of twins among the six. The Mayor gave tho unfortunate family a pass. As sistance was alto rendered them by several ' parties. Postal College diplomas, enarters, etc., having written signatures attached, a bank book containing entries in pen or pencil, maps or drafts thereof drawn with pen or pencil, or, if printed, having additions mado with a pen or pencil, or patterns with directions how to nse them made with pen or pencil, are subject to letter postage—three cents for each half ounce or fraction thereof. The words '‘printed matter,” “one pa per,” “from John Junes,” etc., or auy other writing in addition to the address ou* pack ages of third class matter, subjects them to letter postage. There is, however, uo ob- joctiou to a card printed or impressed ou the wrappers of such matter. Writing in addition to the address on the envelope of a sealed letter does not subject the packet to auy greater rate of postage than three cents for each half ounce or fraction thereof.
