Christmas in Coming !
It has been noticed that the shrewdest
of our business men are always the first in
the field with advertisements of their Christ
mas holiday wares, and already our columns
begin to show the signs that they are wide
awake this year to the advantages of catch
ing the eyes of customers early in the sea
son. They appreciate the fact that a large
proportion of the purchasers of holiday
goods prefer to mako their selections in ad
vance, when they can avoid the rush, and
get the pick of the market. It is now not
quite a month before the great holidav will
come, and the hearts of the little folks are
already beatiDg high in anticipation. No
matter how hard the times there is not
parent in the land who will feel too poor
to purchase some juvenile gift for the ex
pectant little ones at home. And the
wonderful variety of holiday presents now
supplied by the caterers in this Hne, affords
a range of choice, suiting the humblest as
well as the best filled purse. The Morn
ing News, with its universal circulation,
will afford the best medium of communica
tion between the sellers and the purchasers
of Christmas wares.

The Radical Executive Committee of the
last campaign must be rather hard up, as
we understand they have never paid their
printing bill.
A culvert some ninety feet long has re
cently been put under the Coast Line Rail
road just beyond the low lands of the Atlan
tic and Gulf Railroad.
There is a new song entitled “Don’t Go
Near the Bar-room, lather.” Now look out
for a companion song “When there’s Whis
key in the Jug at Home.”
Savannah is to be envied. One of hor
citizens has appropriated under the forms
of law one of our brightest je .vela to him
self.—Atlanta Constitution.
It is reported that a Radical sheet, run by
Deveaux, Toomer, and others, colored, with
John H. Deveaux, colored, as editor, will
make its appearance next Saturday.
Tbe Radicals are making another effort to
secure additional election precincts. The
outrages and frauds of 1868 are not forgot
ten, and it is not likely the scheme will suc-
oeed.
Hebcv Skipper, the guard of the chain-
gang who accidentally shot himself on the
Ogeechee road recently, is now in Macon
under the care of a physician, and is re
ported as doing well.
The Spanish bark Galccran, Capt. Maris-
tany, was cleared Saturday by Messrs. Chas.
Green, Son & Co. tor Barcelona, with 2,100
bales upland cottOD, weighing 965,807
pounds, and valued at $132,005 86.
The American ship Joseph Fish, Capt.
Stackpole, was cleared for Liverpool Satur
day by Messrs. Williams & Crane, with 4,223
bales’ upland cotton, weighing 1,978,989
pounds, and valued at $256,135 53.
Messrs. Saverese & Bro., in the market.re-
ceived from Florida a large black grouper
weighing three hundred and fifty pounds,
the third of the kind that has been brought
to this city within the past two years.
Mr. J. D. Perry’s gin-house near Munner-
Ivd, on the Central Railroad, was destroyed
by fire last Wednesday night. Seven hales
of cotton were also consumed. The fire was
undoubtedly the work of an incendiary.
A guard is expected to-day or to-morrow
to take the penitentiary convicts to the coal
mines. A crowd of several hundred ne
groes assembled at the Central Railroad
epot yesterday morning, anticipating that
they would be sent off.
Mr. Henry F. Suiter, First Foreman of the
Werner Hook and Ladder Company, was
slightly injured hv the falling of a ladder
during a practice by the company on the
corner of Bay and Lincoln streets. He was
up yesterday and doing well.
Mr. Henry Hogrieff, who was assaulted
by the negro Henry Stykes in his store on
the White Bluff road a short time since, is
improving. His wife, who it will be recol
lected was beaten at the same time, is also
doing well, and will soon be about as usual.
On Saturday afternoon a little hoy, two and
a half years old, son of Mr. John Knox, liv
ing in St. Gall street, near Harris, whilst
playing in the street was knocked down and
run over by a one-horse wagon driven very
recklessly by a negro, but fortunately
escaped serious injury.
Yesterday morning when the church bells
were ringing and the hilcyon wing of peace,
it is presumed, shadowed every Christian
heart, we hear there was one unhappy man,
who generally sits in a front pew, on this
occasion sitting on the side of his
bed with a thumping headache, counting
the small change of his weekly stipend
cheered by his spouse’s lively satire.
The Berger Troupe of Boll Ringers gave
their farewell performance at the Theatre
Saturday to quite a fine audience. A pro
gramme varied, amusing and attractive was
presented and was carried through in the
usual excellent manner. We are pleased to
kuow that this fine troupe have met with
abundant success here and commend them
to the favorable consideration of our breth
ren of the press as an org&nizatiou well
worthy in all respects oflfcberal patronage,

A Complimentary Card and its Answer.
Atlanta, Ga., November 23, 1875.
To the Rt. Ret. J. IF. Beckwith, Bishop of
the Diocese of Georgia:
The undersigned, members of the congre
gation of St. Phillips Church, and others not
belonging to the Episcopal communion, re
spectfully request that you repeat at your
earliest convenience, a sermon preached by
you in this city several months since, upon
the text, “What shall a man give in ex
change for his soul?” Apart from the plea
sure to be derived by those who heard the
sermon when first delivered, from its repe
tition, we are persuaded that so fine an in
tellectual effort, with so broad and catholic
a Christian tone and Bpirit, cannot fail to be
productive of much good in stimulating the
interest of those who shall hear it on the
subject of their own salvation.
We shall be pleased, Bishop, by the as
surance thac you will shortly comply with
our request, and beg that you name the
earliest date consistent with your profes
sional engagements and personal con
venience.
(Signed) J. L. Robertson,
and fifty others.
Atlanta, November 26, 1875.
My Dear Major Robertson :
I reached home to-day, and find your
favor of the 23d, accompanying a request,
signed by a number of gentlemen of At
lanta, yourself among the number, asking
that I repeat a sermon preached by me some
months since upon the text; “What Bhall a
man give in exchange for his soul ?”
I believe that a clergyman has a right to
consider such requests, with such signa
tures, as indications of the will of Provi
dence. The Master has “chosen tbe weak
things of the world to confound the things
which are mighty.” It would, therefore, be
a mere weakness were I to hesitate to act
upon the hope that he will use my endeavor
for the benefit of some who may hear me.
For thi3 reason I gladly accede to your
request.
On Sunday morning next (Sfith), I expect
to administer the rites of Confirmation in
St. Philip’s Church. If that time will suit
the convenience of those who wish to hear
tho sermon, I will theD, Providence permit
ting, preach it. Begging that you will as
sure the signers of this request of my high
appreciation of the honor they have con
ferred upon me, believe me
Most respectfully, your friend,
J. W. Beckwith,
Bishop of Georgia.

A Novel Exhibition.
To-morrow (Tuesday) evening there will he
a novel exhibition at Masonic Temple, from 3
p. m. to 9 p. m., in which the merits of
George V. Hecker & Co.’s self-raising flour
will be fully demonstrated. Many of our
housekeepers, doubtless, have used self-
raising flour, they are possibly not ac
quainted with the precise method of using
this valuable auxilary in tne domestic
affairs of the present age, as we have heard
some complain that they were disappointed
in its use. It is for this purpose
that Mr. Joseph Gorman and Mr. Robert
M. Floyd, representatives of the firm, have
arranged the exhibition at Masonic Tem-
f »le, and an opportunity will be afforded the
adies of Savannah of learning exactly how
to use it, and the excellent things that may
be made out of it. The occasion will be
made quite interesting, and will undoubt
edly prove amusing. We acknowledge the
receipt of an invitation from Mr. Gorman
to be present, and shall endeavor to be
there, as our curiosity is alike excited on
the subject, though personally wo don’t
contemplate experimenting.
From present indications our people
will this week be deprived of amuse
ments of any character, but the coming
week will be one of nnusual brilliance and
attraction, and the dUletanli will have the
opportunity of enjoying the best rendition
of English and Italian opera.
On Monday next, the 6th of December,
the Holman English Opera Company will
occupy the Theatre for two nights
only. This company, since their
appearance in this city, have
betm reorganized, aud daring the season
have met with unprecedented success
throughout the entire conutry. The cele
brated opera, “Girofle-Girofla,” which has
created such a furore wherever presented,
is billed for the opening night. As this
opera is new to the majority of our readers
we give the argument annexed, which may
he preserved for reference :
Don Bolero d’Alcarazas, a Grandee of
Spain, and his wife Anrore, have two chil
dren, twin daughters, Girofle and Girofla,
who are so remarkably alike that the only
means of distinguishing them is by their
clothes. One wears blue and the otner
pink. Don Bolero, when the piece opens,
is in great trouble and danger from two
quarters—he owes four million of fraDcs to
a banking house, Marasquin et Cic., and ii
threatened with proceedings for its re
covery < while he is also in dread of an in
vasion of his territory by a fierce neigl bor
of his, a Moor, Mourzouk. Aurore has
contrived to appease these two enemies by
sending them the portraits of her daugh
ters, and arranging a double marriage—
Marasquin to marry Girotle and Mourzouk
Girofla. The piece opens on the jedding day.
Marasquin arrives attired for the bridal,
and is indignant when he is informed
that Mourzouk, owing to a toothache,
is unable to come, and that the wed
ding must be postponed until the
next day. Bolero, from motives of economy,
will not give two breakfasts, and wishes
both the weddings to be on the same day.
But Marasquin insists on being married at
once. All is arranged, when Girofla is car
ried off by a redoutable band of pirates.
•Bolero sends a celebrated Admiral. M&ta-
moros, in pursuit of the pirates, and he
undertakes to restore him his daughter by
the evening. In the meantime, Mourzoukl
recovered from his toothache, having had
his teeth pulled out, appears, ready also to
be married, and demands his bride. Every
one is frightened at his fierce appearance
and manners; Bolero is afraid to tell him
that Girofla has been carried away, and tries
to put him off, but Mourzouk, in a most
threatening manner, insists on her being
produced at ouce. Aurore at last hits on a
plan, and putting the pink ribbon on Girofle,
introduces her to Mourzouk as Girofla, in
order to gain time. In their terror, they al
low her to go through the marriage ceremony
with Mourzouk in place of her sister, al
though she is already married to Marasquin,
intonding to substitute Girofla for her when
she is brought hack by the Admiral. Various
expedients are resorted to by Bolero and his
wife to keep Girofle out of sight of her two
husbands, until the return of her sister, and
much confusion naturally ensues. The
hour approaches at which Matamoros prom
ised to reappear, when a messenger arrives
from him with the appalling news that he
has been defeated by the pirates, and that
Girofla is on her way to the Seraglio of Con
stantinople. There is now no chance of her
being recovered until the next day, although
Matamoros intends staiting again in pur
suit; Bolero and Aurore, in an agony of ter
ror, lock Mourzouk up in his room. The
next day Mourzouk, furious at the treatment
ho has received, having smashed all the
furniture in his room to calm himself a lit
tle, demands an explanation. Bolero at
tempts to explain, but fails, and beg-i Mar
asquin to allow his wife—Girofle—to per
sonate her sister for a short time. Marasquin
is most unwiliiug, but yields to the decep
tion to save his father-in-law, with the uu-
derstauding that Mourzouk is obliged to
depart in an hour’s time on an expedition.
Mourzouk demands to be left alone to talk
with his wife, and the time of departure ap
proaching, takes his leave. Bolero, Aurore,
Marasquin and Girofle break into manifes
tations of joy at his departure, and Maras
quin embraoes Girofle with effusion. Mour
zouk at this moment returns, aud seeing all
this, demands of Marasquin what lie means
by kissing his (Mourzouk’s) wife. Maras
quin refuses to explain, aud Mourzouk chal
lenges him to combat. Marasquin will not
fight, and tells Mourzouk the truth. An
other explosion o' - rage from Mourzouk ii
imminent, when Matamoros returns, bring
ing back Girofla, whom he has rescued, aud
every one is satisfied.
On Wednesday, the 8th December, the
Masonic Temple will be opened for the first
time this seasou by the Adelaide Phillipps
Grand Italian Opera Company, comprising
the following talent: Miss Adelaide Phi -
lipps, Miss Matilde Phillipps, her debut In
America; Miss Violetta Colville, Siguoriua
Lamberti, Soprani; Mr. Tom Karl, Signor
Bog&niui (his debut in America), Tenori;
Signor Taliapietra, Baritone; Signor Carpi
(his debut in America), Basso Cantaute:
Signor Baccelli, Basso; Signor Barberis,
Second Tenor; Signor Locatelli, Second
Bass; Signor A. Tomasi, Musical Director,
and a full chorus and orchestra.
Concerning the appearance of thia splen
did troupe in the Crescent City, the New
Orleans Picayune says: New Orleans is
pre-eminently a musical city. It has always
abounded in resident artists of great natural
power, cultivated to the highest by art aud
study, aud in proportion to its population
no city on the continent possesses so large
a number of talented amateurs, with highly
cultivated musical taste. Long before the
opera had obtainod a foothold in any other
city on this side of the Atlantic, it was an
established institution in New Orleans; and
the operatic stage in this city has drawn to
its boards nearly every European celebrity
in succession. In consequence the standard
of mnsical art aud taste stands high. It is,
therefore, not presumptuous to assert that
any vocalist who meets with favor in New
Orleans, may be considered safe before any
intelligent audience anywhere. In fact, we
believe that the pronounced judgment of
the New Orleans musical public will be found
as conclusive as the fiat of a Parisian audi
ence, once considered so necessary to stamp
a musical reputation.
In it is, we think, that no small addition
to Miss Adelaide Phillipps’s former tri
umphs that her appearance before a New
Orleans audience has been greeted with
such unanimous approbation. The appro
bation has been as enthusiastic on tho part
of the hearers as it is merited by the
artiste.
Of Miss Phillipps’s artistic attainments
there is no question. Her style, as varied
as it is exquisite and profound, showed that
she had studied in the best schools. The
effect of her performance has thoroughly
disabused people of the idea that it is
not necessary to como from a particular
8pot to exhibit the qualities of a great
artiste. Genius is of no age or country '
belongs to them all.
Adelaide Phillipps, as an American, has
made Americans proud of the progress of
art in this country. Her voice, a pure con
tralto of unusual compass, has been culti
vated to very perfection, and while it pos
sesses all the brilliancy and polish of art, it
yet retains the freshness and purity of na
ture. Though vigorous, strong and majes
tic, it is capable of the most facile execu
tion. Roulades, thrills, profuse ornamenta
tion are perfectly at her command; at the
same time she never sacrifices to brilliancy
of execution the simplicity combined with
refinement, so hard to attain, and so charm
ing when attained. Coupled with all this is
associated a musical temperament and ma
tured judgment, which gives her the power
of interpreting, as it were, the innermost
thoughts of the composer.
We h ipe no long interval will elapse be
fore we may have a repetition of the exquis
ite musical enjoyment afforded by the sing
ing of Miss Phillipps.
THE STATE AND FEDERAL. COURTS.
Prospect of a Clash of Aathoritles—Old
Taaio G. Cajapbell’s Case.
During the past several days we have been
cognizant of a desperate effort among the
Radical officials and friends of the notorious
old reprobate, Tunis G. Campbell, to pro
tect him from a jast punishment of his
crimes. At present Tams is ander sentence
to the penitentiary, but has been confined
in the coohty jail in consequence of
his case having been carried to the Su
preme Court. He is, however, under in
dictment for a similar offense, for which
he w&a convicted and sentenced, and it was
the intention to have him conveyed to Mc
Intosh County Court on Monday next to
undergo trial. Anticipating a like result to
thia case, the counsel of ( ampbell, George
H. Thomas, Assistant U. S. District Attor
ney, has been at work devising means to
errect a transfer of the case from the State
Court to the United States Court, on
the alleged ground that Campbell
cannot get justice in the former. In accord
ance with these views, the assistant Uni
ted States Attorney has filed a petition in
the United States Court for a writ of tiabeas
corpus, setting forth in detail the allega
tions above noted, and under the following
sections qaoted, the Clerk has issued the
writ prayed for, the law upon tbe subject
being mandatory.
Section 641. When any civil suit or crimi
nal prosecution is commenced iu any State
court, for any cause whatsoever, against any
person who is denied or cannot enforce in
the judicial tribunals of the State, or in the
part of the State where such suit or prose
cution is pending, any right secured to him
by any law providing for the equal civil
rights of citizens of the United States, or
of all persons within the jurisdiction of the
Unitea States, * * such suit or prosecu
tion may, upon the petition of such defend
ant, filed in any State coart, at any time
before the trial or final hearing of the cause,
stating the facts ana verified by oath, be
removed, for trial, into the next circuit court
to be held iu the district where it is pend
ing. Upon the filing of each petition al
further proceedings in the State coarts shall
cease, and shall not be resumed except as
hereinafter provided. But all bail and other
security given in such suit or prosecution
shall continue iu like force and effect as if
the same had proceeded to final judgment

COMMODORE PORTER IN SAVANNAH .
The Mayor stated to Council that the
steam galliot Sea Gull, Commodore Porter,
had arrived in the harbor of Savannah, and
from the distinguished services of that offi
cer he suggested to Conned the propriety of
extending to him the hospitalities of the
city, and paying him those honors so de
servedly merited.
On motion of Mr. Schley—
Resolved, That the Mayor and three Al
dermen be a committee to wait on Commo
dore Porter and express to him the gratifi
cation which this city feels on his safe return
to his countty, and the desire is felt of ex
tending to him ad the hospitality and civil
ity which are dne from the citizens to a pa
triotic and gallant officer. Further, that the
said committee be authorized to invite Com
modore Porter to a public dinner on the
part of the citizens, and to make sncli ar
rangements as may be necessary for snch a
festival or other attentions or assistance
that circumstances may render suitable.
Resolvent, That said committee be author
ized to request permission of Commodore
Porter to present the crew of his vessel (on
board) with such fruits and vegetables as
can be procured in our markets, in consider
ation of the hard and valaable services they
have rendered their country.
“One Jlore Unfortunate.”
On Satnrday morning about six o’clock,
Coroner Knorr was notified that a white
woman had died under suspicions circum
stances at the house of one Clara Lawrence,
colored, in Yamacraw. He at once pro
ceeded to the place, and summoning a jury,
commenced an investigation of the facts.
It was ascertained that the woman, who is
known as Susan Williams, but whose right
name is Susan Eddy, had expressed the
intention of making away with herself
in consequence of some trouble that
that had oocurred between her and a male
friend, a seafaring man who left this port
on Friday. She had been in the habit of
taking laudanum, and her associates paying
little heed to her threats, were not alarmeu
upon hearing that she had been drinking
the drug. In the night, however, they were
aroused by her groans, and discovering that
her symptoms were unusually alarming

Prompt Reinforcement.
When the physical energies are overtasked or
flag through weakness or disease, they need
prompt reinforcement. Renewed vigor is most
speedily supplied through the medium of a tonic
stimulant, and among medicinal resources of that
class, Hostetler's Stomach Bitters assuredly de
serve a pre-eminent place. Weakness, whether
constitutional or arising from disease oj: over-
fatigue, cannot be better compensated fbr than
by a resort to this pri i.e strengthening cordial.
The enfeebled invalid, the convalescent and tho
aged and infirm find that it is an unfailing source
of vigor and comfort. Its combined tonic and
alterative properties also constitnte it an in
valuable remedy for indigestion, weakness of the
organs of urination, constipation, torpidity of the
liyer, and many other irregularities apd disabili
ties, and render it an invaluable protection against
malaria, as \yell as'disorders of the '‘tomach and
bowels. nov26-F;M,W‘&wlw

prayer of the petition it may readily be seen
that a rather momentous legal ques
tion will arise. Supposing, now, that
the case should bo taken to the United
States Courts, George H. Thomas, the As
sistant District Attorney, who figures as
counsel for the defendant, would be in tbe
role of prosecuting officer. It may be in
ferred from this that the prosecution would
not be vigorous. Altogether the phase
which this case has assumed is most re
markable. It is evident that the Radicals
appreciate the importance of having such
a vile and unscrupulous agitator as Tunis at
jiberty, and count upon his well-known abil
ity for creating disturbances and riots as of
value to their narty in the coming elections.
The writ of habeas corpus is granted return
able at the next term of the United States
Court in April next, aud as the action or de
cision of the State authorities will be carried
out by that time, the course of tho United
States authorities will bo anticipated with
interest.

The work originally published nnder the title
Of THE NEW’ AMERICAN CYCLOPAEDIA was
completed in 1S63, since which time tl e wide cir
culation which it has attained in all parts of the
United States, and the signal developments which
have taken place in every branch of science, lit
erature and art, have induced the editors and pub
lishers to submit it to an exact and thorough re
vision, and to issue a new edition entitled
The American Cyclopaedia.
W’ithin the last ten years the progress of dis
covery in every department of knowledge has
made a new work of reference an imperative
want.
The movement of political affairs has kept
pace with the discoveries of science, and their
fruitful application to the industrial and useful
arts and the convenience and refinement of
social life. Great ware and consequent ievolu
tions have occurred, involving national changes
of peculiar moment. The civil war of our own
conntry, which was it ita height when the last
volume of the old work appeared, has happily
been ended, and a new course of commercial
and industrial activity has been commenced.
Large accessions to our
GEOGRAPHICAL KNOWLEDGE
Have been made by the indefatigable explorers
of Africa.
The great political revolutions of the last de
cade, with the natural result of the lapse of
time, have brought into public view a multitude
ol new men, whose names are in every one’s
mouth, and of whose lives every one is curions
to know the particular*. Great battles have
been fought and important sieges maintained, of
which the details are as yet preserved only in
the newspapers or in the transient publications
of the day, but which ought now to take their
place in
PERMANENT AND AUTHENTIC HISTORY.
In preparing the present ecition for the press.
It has accordingly been the aim of the editors to
bring down the information to the latest pos
