Mardi Gras is fast approaching, and the celebration of the event by tho Savannah Scbuetzen-Gesollschaft will bo on a grand scale. The programme appears in our col umns this morning, and the details aro therein explicitly set forth. We commend it to the careful perusal of those who ft el dis posed to assist the society in rendering the observance of the carnival as a distinct feature iu the amusement line as it is in New Orleans, Memphis and Mobile. Inducements are offered those who participate in tho procession, iu mask. Momus will, ou this occasion, hid one and all rejoice and he exceedingly glad, aud why should not our people do so ? What reason is there that we should never cut ourselves loose from the routine of evciy dav life and give a few hours to mirth aud merriment ? As a people, we have yet much to learn from tho “effete despotisms of Europe.” We do not have enough holidays, and the holidays we have are frequently so onlv in name. The average American spends his'life iu an eager effort to become wealthy rapidly, and the feverish excitement of speculation is frequently only exchanged in later years for utter prostration of mind and body, with a continuous strain upon his nervous system, and with every faculty constantly* at work, he really amasses less wealth ■’than the slow and sure European who allows himself some repose aud some enjoyment. We theiefore believe iu festive events of this kind. We believe in rest for body and fiiind, and iu diverting our thoughts for a while into other channels than those of every day life. The society have secured two bands of music, and, as a body, have devoted time and money to the getting up of designs of various kinds. We think we are sate in assuring our friends in the interior that it will be well worth their while to visit Savannah on this gala day—a day of innocent mirth and en joyment and a night in which at joyment and a night tho Grand Carnival hall there will be sights aud scenes to dazzle and delight every beholder.

A negro hoy shot at a negro man on Saturday night about 10 o’clock in the mar ket, without doing auy damage, however. The boy was arrested by a policeman and taken to tho barracks. Messrs.

How much pleasure does it give a young lady to see her gallant at a festival hold a plate ot refreshments on his knee. He can’t <lo it without turning iu his toes, aud his position is so graceful aud easy that she can scarce keep from crying (?) Have yon sworn off? If so, here is a hint for you : One who has tried it and found it a success says that bv eating au orange whenever your appetite craves strong drink, you will instantly feel that you wouldn’t take a drink even if it was offered you. “ How fiat, stale and unprofitable seem the uses of this world,” when a friend in vites you in to take something, aud, after tho glasses have been emptied, to have him exclaim, a» he runs his hands deep into his pockets, “I’ve got on my otljer pants !” The ventriloquist in llohiuson's minstrels propounds this conundrum : “If it takes a horse three days to eat a bushel of oats, how long will it* take the City Council of Savannah to put up that big fire hell ? ’ Give it up. Well, that’s what the Council does. Kaufman ou Saturday arrested a negro on the charge of petty larceny, stealing a lot of iron, and when he got him iuto the back office he tried to get him to confess. “Now, Sam, own up; didn't you steal that iron ? ’ “Swar, boss, fore God I nebher stealed dat iron; dat ain’t my fine of hizuess; chickins aud wood is my line.” An Excursion to Fort Royal, A party of fifteen or more “choice spirits” left yesterday morning at four o’clock, on the steam tug Crescent City, ou a pleasure trip to Port Royal. They proposed visiting the squadron and favoring the officers of the men-of-war with theirviews on naval warfare aud the construc tion of double-turretted monitors. Antici pating ft seyero voyage, we understand they had out their commissary on Saturday, who reported late in the night at the rendez vous with three gallons of Baker whisky, a ham, two bottles of brandy, some crackers, a bgttle of gin, a lot of cheese and pickles, several loaves of bread, and a dozen bottles of Heidseick. With guuh a frill of fare, no doubt, thev managed to worry through the dav and were able to see the squadron to advantage. They returned some time during the night, and we presume had a good time, but as wo failed to see any of them, cannot express an opinion upon the subject.

THE “ALMINAX” MAN. Josh Billings, who is now on his first and last tour of the South, for it is his farewell to the’ rostrum, is booked for one of his peculiar entertainments, at the Theatre in Savannah, for to-morrow (Tuesday) evening. It is scarcely necessary to tell our readers who Josh Bilhugs is—that is as a literary character—for the veriest skimmer of news papers and current literature is familiar with the “Man of Alminax” and proverbs, the author of numerous funny paragraphs going the rounds of the press, the wisest humorist, the most philosophical of fun- makers, and the greatest natural speller of the century, under the pseudonym of “Josh Billing*.” Wherever there is a newspaper there Josh Billings has friends and admirers, for not a journal in the land but quotes him. How many of these friends dwell in the South Josh knew not, until he learned by tho pleasant experiences of the pre-ent .rip. At Richmond, Norfolk, * Wilmington, Raleigh, Knoxville, Lynchburg, and other cities, w T e see by the press that the people conspired to overwhelm him with appreciation aud kindness. In Raleigh, for instance, upon the close of his readings, a committee composed ot the Mayor, several college Presidents, ministers, merchants avid other influential citizens waited upon him, and requested him to repeat the enter tainment. As the following aay was Satur day, and no engagement was booked for it, Josh was able to consent. Ho did so, how ever, with a proviso that the profits should ii.u* T.aa \Tumririul Vnnil A a WHEREFORE HE PRAY8 THAT A WARRANT MAY ISSUE. An Appeal to a Justice of the Peace. The following, contributed by Irwin Rus sell to the Budget of Fun, will be heartily enjoyed by our magisterial and legal friends who have had similar cases to deal with : go to the Ladies’ Lee Memorial Fund. As might well be judged, tho enthusiasm of Raleigh over Josh culminated in gratitude for this generous and graceful act, and his second night found Tucker Hall still too small to seat all who wanted to hear him. A great many extracts from the Southern press are before us now, and they unani mously endorse Josh Billings as a very great attraction. From these it would seem that everywhere his houses have been large and iashionable; that everywhere the hu morist was in good vein and able to keep his audience on the laugh for an hour and a half, and that everybody found his enter tainments absolutely unique and thoroughly satisfactory aud enjoyable. It has seemed to he, too, a matter of general regret that his engagements were such that he could only "remain the one night in each place, for Josh has evidently that faculty of magnetism which attracts popular regard, and everywhere wins upon the friendship, sympathy and good will of the thousands who pay tribute to his genius. After .Savannah, Josh goes to Jackson ville, then hv Griffin, Atlanta, and so ou through the Southwest, round to Baltimore, from whence ho started out upon this tour a month ago. It may not he doubted that Savannah will let the only chance of seeing and hearing one of the greatest of American humorists go by, aud Josh will have no doubt a full liouso at the Theatre on Tues day night. “DAVY CROCKETT.” On Wednesday evening next our play goers will have au opportunity of seeing the popular young actor, Frank Mayo, in his celebrated character of “ Davy Crockett.” Mr. Mayo comes to us with tho highest en dorsements of the press, aud wo anticipate a treat in his brief engagement. The New York Herald says : “ Davy Crockett” at Niblo’s was success ful-made so through the interest iu a pure love talc*, told in a healthful, dramatic way. Mr. Frank Mayo plays with care and a fidel ity to nature that captivates. Ho allows uothiug to tempt him into rant. His is the nearest approach to true American comedy acting that has hoeu yet seen. MISS MAGGIE MITCHELL. Wo had a call ou Saturday from Capt. Thos. W. Brown, theadvance agent of Miss Maggie Mitchell,who informs us that the famous and popular actress will make her appearance iu Savannah ou the 28th for two nights. Miss Mitchell has lost noue of that piquancy that made her popularity years ago, and timo has only matured and * developed her rare histrionic talent. She is supported by a company which is said to ho far above the average, and everywhere has been greeted with crowded houses. “Fanchon” aud tho “Pearl of Savoy” will ho given respectively on Wednesday and Thursday nights. Seats may he secured at Schreiner’s ou Thursday next. THE LENTEN REASON. Regulations for (lie Catholic Churrli. On Sunday last the pastoral of the Right Rev.

Ernest Gowdy, the hoy of thirteen who disappeared from the home of his father, Francis B. Gowdy, at Scitico, Ct., last September, and was recently found at Charleston,S.C.. got hack under the paternal roof Saturday, Henry R. Billings, of this city, who happened to be coming North, having volunteered to pilot him homeward. The story of his disappearance and adven tures is full of romantic interest, and, if true, indicates a degree of smartness that will make or mar his life according to the use made of it. The boy comes home hearty and happy, evidently not appreciating the distress he has caused his parents, but look ing back with glee upon the good time he has had. He has made the trip rather more of a success than his companion, Reardon, who was carried off by small-pox at Savannah, Ga., some weeks ago. People will naturally receive his statements with allowance, hut Mr. Billings believes them in substance, and Chief Hendricks, of the Charleston police, even credits a statement of the boy that he made six hundred dollars in ten weeks selling pictures at Savannah. A special dispatch to the Republican, given below, states tho substance of an in terview with tho hoy, aud the story agrees in the main with that told to Mr. Billings, though in the latter he spoke kindly of Reardon, and admitted that the responsi bility for running away, and for taking his father’s money, was as much his as Rear don’s. His motives for going were a desire “ to see the world ” and a feeling that his brother didn’t treat hi u well. Ho seemed by no means anxious to come home when Mr. BillingB took charge of him, though he showed no disposition to get away from him. He was picked up at Charleston just in the nick of time, for he had engaged to go on a voyage to the West Indies. Mr. Bilhugs did not know the boy when he went for him, but Earnest, on seeing him, ex claimed, “ Why, that’s Henry Billings! ” He had seen him, doubtless, on his trips between this city and Hartford, where his business is. The following is the boy’s story : I was enticed away by John Reardon. I walked from my home in Scitico to Thompsonville, and took the steamboat train to Springfield, thence taking the midnight train to New York ; remained m New York two or three weeks, looking around tho city. Got my one hundred aollar bill changed at a whole sale liquor store corner Forty-second street and Third avenue. John and I went in together. After I got tho money changed, John tried to get it awav from me, and swore dreadfully when I refused. Reardon aud I had a falling out here about the money. He took the steamer Leo to Savan nah, and, a few days after, I followed in the steamer Georgia for Charleston, South Car olina, paying my fare. I went to boarding with a lady corner of Meeting and market streets, arid began peddling Eureka polish, which I made myself; had good luck and saved money. Thence I went to Beaufort, thence to Port Royal, and from there to Sa vannah. Didn’t sell auy goods at Beaufort or Port Royal. I peddled polish iu Savau- nah, but didn’t find much sale for it, and went to peddling pictures, looking-glasses and clocks. I had good luck with them, selling most all my goods to the darkies. I could sell them anything, if they had money. 1 remained at Savannah all winter, and, peddling getting dull, went to work in a restaurant; worked iu tho kitchen, and helped arouud the house. I got struck in tho head, by a big buck negro, with a bak ing dish, which has left a big scar. I went to a lawyer, and got the fellow arrested; found him in the dumb waiter, when the of ficers went for him. Ho was sent to the penitentiary. The cook went in and testi fied in my favor. While in Savannah the boarding house was burned up, aud I lost all my stock in trade and all my clothes, and all that I had, including my savings for sev eral mouths. Then I came back to Charles ton, getting a free pass from the engineer, aud went to peddling polish again. I wrote home, as I wanted to hoar ln»w tho folks wore, and to let them know that I was well. I was not home-sick. Several days after I went to the Post Office for a letter, aud the Postmaster asked mo : “Well, Ernest, how are you getting along ?” Did not say much, aud walked off, when a big, black, burly negro policeman came along aud arrested me, saying I had forged a note on the Tost Office, lie took me to the officQb.of tho Chief, who questioned me aud kept me there, giviug me the liberty of the jail and yard, and was very kind to me. I fouu'l in Savanuah that a white man wa» as good as any one, hut in Charleston tho negro is a little the best man. I am glad to get home, aDd going to remain home and go to school. Don’t like to live on a farm; rather live in the city aud learn a trade. While in Savannah I found out that Rear don had died with the small-pox. I was brought home by Mr. Henry R. billings, a kind, good man, who done all he couid for me. He is a contractor iu Hartford, but lives in Springfield, Massachusetts. Got a pass clear through—that is, Mr. Billings got one for me. The delight of Ernest’s people at home when he arrived was something well worth witnessing, for they couldn’t restrain their feelings. The old folks laughed and cried all night long, and the youugsters talked all night in bed. It was a happy home that night. Both father aud mother moat cor dially thank all who have had a hand in helping them in their hour of trouble, espe cially Chief Hendricks, of Charleston, Mr. Billings and the “blessed newspapers,” feel- iug that without their help tho search might have proved as fruitless as poor Mr. Ross’s has been. “May God bless all,” is the grateful wish of these parents.

Ferguson, the Secretary of the Maryland Jockey Club, announces that the sweepstakes to be run for at Pimlico during the racing seasons of 1876-’7 closed on the first of the present month, aud judging from tho horses entered, aud the number of stables represented, the races will be finer than any ever witnessed in Maryland. Tho handicap stakes for four year olds, mile heats, to be run for at the spring meeting, closed with nineteen entries from the stables of T. B. and W. R. Davis, Lorillard Mc- Dauieis, Bowie, Clabaugh, Chamberlain, Cottrell, Duffy aud others. The most noted horses entered for this race are Ascension, Radamauthus, Viator, James A., Willie Burke aud Lord Zetland. The sweepstakes for three year olds that have not won in their two year old form, one mile dash, colts t > carry 100 pouuds, and fillies aud geldings 97 pounds, closed with twenty-nine entries, and al though they are all non-winuers, an ex cellent race’ may be expected. The grand steeple chase, post stakes, two miles aud a half, closed with the following subscri ers : J. B. and W. R. Davis, Jordon & Co., A. D. Brown, Oden Bowie, G. L. Lorrillard, M. Duffy, Charles Heed aud George Langstaff. The Breckinridge stake i, for three year olds, two miles, has twenty-five entries from noted stables, and being a companion stake to the Dixie, it will no doubt bo warmly contested for. The Central stakes, for two year olds, one milo, to be run for at the fall meeting of 1876, has twenty-four en tries, all of which are all well bred and are owned by prominent tyrfites. The Dixie stakes of 1877 for colts aud fillies then three years old, two miles, $1G0 subscription, half forfeit, the clnb to add $1,500, closed with sixty-four entries. In addition to all the well-known Eastern and Western stables re presented in this stake, there are a number of new ones from Tennessee and other places in the Southwest. Among the entries are several colts sired by the once famous racer Longfellow, whose’ get will appear on the turf during the coming season.—Balti more Gazette. A Peculiar Case—“The Law’s Delays.” Ah Hee, a Chinaman and employee as a seaman on board the barkentine Rex, was, a few days since, committed to jail by Magis trate Abrams for safe keeping uutil tho sail ing of the vessel. Tho bark was ready for sea on Friday, the Captain had secured a pilot, and a tug was alongside, aud all was in readiness to leave as soon as the be nign Celestial, Ah Hee, was placed on board. Officer Endres proceeded to the jail for the “heathen Chinee,” and there found that a commitment from Magistrate Russell’s court had been lodged against his man. The Captain procured counsel and went to Mag istrate Russell’s office,where, after the state ment of the prosocutor, one Foo Ching,who charged Ah Hee with cheating and swind ling, was given, Magistrate Itussell de- oided to hold the latter for trial. Mr. J. J. Abrams, acting as attorney for the master of the vessel, petitioned Judge Chisholm to hold a special or extr-ordiuary court for the trial of the cause. The Judge granted the petition and hearing was had at 10 o’clock Saturday morning. After the testimony of Foo Ching was given, Judge Chisholm found the defendant not guilty aud ordered his discharge. By this proceeding, which it seems from tho result was based on a frivolous charge, a vessel, loaded and ready for sea, was de tained thirty-six hours, and incurred dam age to the amount of sixty dollars in gold, besides Day of tug aud pilot. Ah Hee was placed ou board, and now is out on the “ bounding ocean.” Death of Mfs. II. 8. Bloodgood. It was reported on Saturday that Mrs. H. S. Bioodgood, grand-daughter of Dr. Perry Davis, of Pain Killer celebrity, who has many warm friends in this city, died Providence, B. I., a few days eince. The particulars of the sad affair are not definitely known, and reports as to the cause of her death vary. One is that she had a severe fall, fracturing one of her limbs aud bringing on a relapse from a lat e illness, which resulted in death. Another is that whilst speaking to a servant from the top of a stairway in the house where she was residing, she was seized with ver tigo, and falling over the bannisters, broke her neck. The news was the occasion of many expressions of sympathy and regret, as Mrs. Bioodgood was highly esteemed in this city. During yesterday morning there were rumors in circulation to the effect that jrevious reports were exaggerated, and hat the lady had only been seriously in jured. No authentic informa tion could be obtained, however. Savannah Kogitrs in Charleston — Who Are They * Tho Charleston News and Courier of Sat urday contains the following : “On Friday afternoon, between 5 and 6 o’clock, officer Darrell arrested two colored men, named Louis Collins and Harrison Williams, while attempting to swindle a man in a store in King, near Morris street, with false dice. The men were taken to the up per station house, and, upon being searched, a pistol aud a number of false dice, cards, etc., were found upon their persons, to gether with letters written by two females in Savannah, named Hager Charlton and Clara Watts. These letters, from their con tents, showed beyond a doubt that tbe men bad left Savannah iu a hurry, aud that the officers were on the lookout for them. Up on a further search, a silver watch was fouud sewed up in the lining of Collins’s coat. From information gathered from the prisoners, the officer* have reason to believe that there are others iu the gang, aud are on the lookout for them, Collins and Wil liams will appear before tbe Mayor this morning, ana will probably be turned over to the Savanuah authorities. Hnvannnli Leanl Wit. At the April term, 1869, of tho United States Circuit Court for the Southern Dis trict of Georgia, held at Savan nah, tho famous “Bank Cases” came up for argument on demurrer to plain tiff's declaration, pleading that the bills sued for had been issued in aid of the “Re bellion,” etc. Hearing was had on tho first case of the series, G. W. Hatch vs. William H. Burroughs, during the argument of which some wag of the bar perpetrated the following: When Dougherty came into court with his bills, The court said: “How now! William Dougherty? The banks when they issued them out of their tills, Were fighting the U. S. authority.” Bill Burroughs coines in and rays “Nil deb.” And so we say, too, Mr. Dougherty, You admit by demurrer each bill was a “Reb,” So Burroughs was right, William Dougherty, The bar of >avannah are mere than your match, A " Burroughs’ eggs-ample you can never On Hatch. But the court did not 1 ‘see it.” Despondency, if allowed unchecked, will often produce a morbid condition, so that the least unsatisfactory affair that happens will swell into terrifying proportions. Tho mind being warped often imparts torpidity to the body, all of which more frequently is the effect of inaction of the liver than from any other cause, and by resorting to Saiip- jnons’ Liver Regulator the mind will often find relief with the body. feb!8-F,M,W&wl The Oyster Law Again. Editor Morning News : Useless controversy, burdensome readers, and a tax upon your columns, was not the object of the writer over the sig nature of “Justice” in your paper of Friday last. It was to correct what seemed to be a misapprehension touching tho bill to amend the oyster laws of 1856. “Fisher man” is evidently hunting cheap notoriety as the advocate of “a mau of straw,’ through the newspapers. Ho says that he raises “do objection to a bill being passed to protect parlies in their pmaiiug of oyster beds.” Good 1 He, I, and tbe bill referred to stand upon the same platform—we agree exactly—therefore there is no cause of quarrel between us. The amendment proposed does not extend the right to plant oysters^ single inch beyond what the original law authorized, except for the purpose of keeping them under water at all stages of the ride. As under the old law no one could plant oysters and protect them beyond bis riparian right (i. e. beyond low water mark), and the conse quence was that our severe summer suns diseased aud destroyed the o3 T sters left bare at every fall of the tide. Only tbe right to go deep enough to keap tho oysters under water, and thus healthy and fat, is what the bill seeks. Its other features are purely protective. And we defy any construction which can possibly give latitude for op pression under it, no matter how it is “at present understood” by “Fisherman.” The tight, therefore, of “Fisherman” is purely one brought about by imagination. He is not unlike the foolish ass which was kept most of his life iu the shade of the fold-yard, aud when at last he gained lib erty to go into the sunlight, looked upon his own shadow and imagined himself in danger of a hideous monster, and set to kicking at it, and kept the struggle up until he kicked himself to exhaustion and death. The bosh about poor men, etc., is too peurile for uotice. In reference to the respectability of those whom he, in his first communica tion, termed irresponsible and the writer termed pests, it will suffice to remark that all such are considered very respectable by each other, as well as by the Custom House ring, whose protection they have attempted to evoke in their infringement of the stat utes now on our books protecting our ripa rian rights. The standpoint is considerable in judging of respectability, and in tbe eyes of bis comrades a pirate may be adjudged as tine a gentleman “as ever scuttled ship or cut a throat.” Justice.

To fiud on what day of the week falls the 1st of November, 1876, you find the initial letter of the month, which is “ D,” by counting ou vour fingers, A (1), B (2), C (3), D (1). So the 1st of November falls on the fourth day after the day on which 1st January falls. Now count against Saturday 1, Sunday 2, Monday 3, Tuesday 4. But this beiDg leap year, and November following February, yon add one, and thus have Wed nesday as the day on which falls November 1st. Now take August. Initial letter “C;” count A (1), B (2), C (3); then count again, Saturday 1, Sunday 2, Monday 3; add one for leap year, and we have Tuesday, August 1st. The “Ilamptoivn Students” Rivalled. Kaufman, the indefatigable and shrewd constable, the other day made a haul of a lot of notorious little negro cotton thieves, and seized with a sudden fancy carried them up to Haven's photograph gallery and had their “pictures took.” Yesterday we re ceived one of these cards, with compliments of Kaufman, who deserves ciedit as an or ganizer of a band which may be said to eclipse the “Hamptown Students.” The group is artistically arranged and labelled as follows: 1. John Bostick alias “Mon key.” 2. Charlton alias “Handfull.” 3. Henry Williams alias “Pompey.” 4. Wm. Smith alias “Toney Mongin.” 5. George Lewis alias “Hog Mouth Henry.” 6.
