The Cjonrcrt Last Nlglit—A Grand Success
As we anticipated, Armory Hall last
evening, the occasion of Professor Mal-
lette’s last subscription concert, was
graced with a large and fashionable au
dience, the attendance being larger than
at any previous concert during the season.
The first portion of the programme com
prised miscellaneous pieces, vocal duets and
solos, and a piano piano solo by a lady ama
teur. The latter was a gem and elicited the
most rapturous applause.
Millard’s Macs in G. was reserved for the
last, and was most excellently rendered.
The orchestration was arranged by Prof.
Herman BrauD, and was a credit to that
most accomplished mnsician and director.
Mr. M. Porter Tremaine, a fine artist, pre
sided at the piano, and displayed rare exe
cution. We will not attempt a detailed
criticism of the Mass, as the solos and cho
ruses alike deserve praise, but we cannot
forbear stating that its successful rendition
added another laurel to Professor Mallette’s
reputation, as we understand it bad only
been in preparation four weeks, and
even then under adverse circumstances.
The audience were thoroughly delighted and
were unstinted in their applause.
Just previous to the close of the Mass,
Prof. Mallette advanced to the front of the
platform, and in a very neat Bpeech thanked
the audience for the oncouragement and
patronage extended during the season, and
in conclusion stated that his pupils desired
him to announce that the Mass would be
repeated for the benefit of Mr. P. H. Ward,
on Tuesday night next. This was received
with loud applause, and Mr. Ward being
called for, responded briefly and pleasantly,
and was complimented with the enthusiastic
plaudits of the audience.

8 “Vim to Shore for Assistance.
We were yesterday placed in possession of
the particulars of a thrilling adventure and
narrow escape of a party from a fearful
death, which occurred on Tv bee river on
Monday. A few days previously Mr. George
H. Elliott and Mr. John Huger, taking with
them a negro servant, wont to Beach Ham
mock with the intention of spending a
couple of weeks iu fishing and recreation.
On Monday, being short of provisions,
they arranged to come to the city
to obtain au additional supply, and
Captain Herron, who was ou the island,
offered his boat and proposed to come up
with them. The party, cousistiug of those
already mentioned, aud a young man named
Willie WilsoD, loft the beach about twelve
o’clock with a good breeze aud the prospect
of a rapid and pleasant run to the city. They
had proceeded as far as the lower end of
Wilmington Island, in Tybee river, when a
sudden flaw of wind struck the boat, aud
before the Bheetrope could he loosened from
the cleat the craft had capsized and sank in
about a minute in twenty feet of water,
pl&ciDg the occupants in an exceedingly
perilous position.
Neither the Captain or the colored man
could swim, but Messrs. Elliott and Hu^er
succeeded in getting them on to the m t>l,
which projected about three feet out of
water, and to which they clung with the
tenacity born of the knowledge that tl oy
were wavering between life and death.
The mast could scarcely support thetvto,
and there was not a moment to be lost in iu-
action. A minute’s consultation in the
water, aud their course was decided upon,
which was to reach Wilmington Island
shore, distant about half a mile, as soon as
possible and obtain assistance. Young Wil
son expressed his belief that he could swim
the distance, so the trio, quickly di
vesting themselves of all their clothes, and
seeing them with their watches and jewelry
sink to the bottom, struck out maufuliy for
the shore, cheering the two men on the
mast with the promise that they would soon
return with assistance.
After a hard struggle with the tide for
quarter of an hour they finally reached the
marsh, only to discover that it was impossi
ble to walk through it barefooted. Taking
to the water again they skirted along the
island until they came to high land at Dr. A.
Oomler’s place, and after bailing for some
time succeeded m attracting the attention
of parties, to whom the accident and peril
ous situation of their companions and self
were explained.
Dr. Oemler promptly got out his boat,
which was manned by his two sons, and the
party proceeded in search of the wrecked
vessel. After a short cruise, they found it
about a mile from the sceuo of the accident
(the great velocity of the tide having moved
it this long distance), and the men, in au
almost exhausted condition, still clinging
to the mast, two hours having elapsed from
the time of the catastrophe to the return of
the rescuers.
Captaiu Herron and the negro were
taken on board, and the boat re
turned to Dr. Oemler’s, upon reaching
which the hospitable Doctor provided them
with clothes, the Bwimmers being destitute
of every article but their undershirts.
During the afternoon a boat was sent
down to the sunken craft, raised and refitted
her, and the party resumed their journey
arriving here safe'ly and in good time yes’
terday morning.
The voyage was certainly a very perilous
one, and that it was not latal ia due to most
fortuitous circumstances. Had the boat
capsized in the chaunel, a short distance
further, she would have sunk in forty feet
of water, and those who were unable to
swim, and probably some of the others,
would have been lost.

Observations on Revncclnatlan During
an Epidemic of Mmull-pox.
Dr. Wm. B. Davis, in a paper read before
the Cincinnati Medical Society, oomes to
the following conclusions, from observa
tions in that city during an epidemic of
small-pox:
That exposure to infection and intense
epidemic influence largely increase the sus
ceptibility of the system to the influence of
raccine virus, and accounts for the nnnsual
number of successful revaccinations daring
the existenpe of an epidemic. Second. That
variola and variploid give no more protec
tion from a recurrence of variola than vac
cination. Third- The cicatrix is not tf. safe
oriterion of the degree of protection given
by the vaccination from which it resulted.
Fourth. It is advisable to revaecinate upon
every exposure to infection, unless it has
been done recently with success. Fifth.
Those who were successfully revacciuated
were to some extent, susceptible to the
variolas influence! not that all would have
taken the infection, for an epidemic never
takes all the unprotected.
That they aye In some danger is proven
by the results of vaccination in the hospitals
and standing armies of Europe. In the
Prussian army the annual death-rates from
small-pox, before rev&ecination was intro
duced, averaged 104. During the twenty
vears immediately succeeding the establish
ment of systematic revaccination, there were
bnt forty fatal cases, and Timon Bays but
four of these had been successful revaccina
tions.— Prom the itedical Kecord, March 25,

A Citizen Incarcernted In Jail for Fallln*
to Take Out a Liquor License— 4 Pr
pectlre Suit for Damaiea.
Oar readers will remember that we noticed
the arraignment before the Mayor on Fr:
day, in the Police Court, of a number of de
faulting liqnor dealers, some thirteen of
whom were sentenced to pay a fine of twen*
ty-five dollars or thirty days in jail, and re
quired to take out their licenses. They
were granted until Monday to comply, and
the majority of them did so. The charge
against these parties was “violating the city
ordinance, failing or refusing to take out
license.”
On Monday afternoon Mr. M. T. Quina^
one of the parties fined, having failed to pay
the fine, wag arrested by a policement and
carried to the jail under commitment of the
Mayor. During the evemng some of Mr,
Qufnan’s friends, who had heard of his in
carceration, secured the services of Mr. J. R.
Saussy to effect his release from imprison
ment. Mr. Sanssy at once filed an application
in the office of the Ordinarylor a writ of
habeas corpus, which was made returnable
mstanter, and hearing set for yesterday
morning. Mr. Quinan was released abont
nine o’clock on Monday night, having been
incarcerated five hours. Strange to say,
the city abandoned the case after the
issuance of the writ, and no examination
was held. This is regarded as & virtual
acknowledgment by many on the part of
the city that its action is not tenable. It
seems from the charge that was entered
against Mr. Quinan on the informa
tion docket, that his incarcera
tion was for debt, as he had
failed] to pay the fine imposed upon him.
There is evidently no authority for impris
oning a man who fails cr refuses to take ont
a license of aDy kind; his place may be
closed and judgment may be obtained
against him, and under levy his stock may
be sold to satisfy the same, but it does not
seem possible that there is any law or ordi
nance warranting his imprisonment for this
offence. Had the charge been “selling liquor
withont a license” the case would have
been different, and the imprisonment might
have been legal. In the opinion of many
versed In the law, it was, however, not legal.
We understand that Mr. Quinan will take
the best legahadvice in the matter, prepara
tory to instituting a suit for damages against
the city for false imprisonment, fixing the
amount at $5,000, or $1,000 for every hour
in jail.
Mr. Myer Men lei was also arrested and
imprisoned for the same cause on Monday,
but we are informed he was released after
the issuance of the writ in the case of Mr.
Qiinan.
The question is quite a novel one, and in
its introduction into the courts for final set-
tlementjwill be looked for with interest.

having circulated, quite a large crowd gath
ered at the spot to iuspect the body and as
certain the particulars of its finding.
CoroDer Knorr arrived in due time, and a
jury being obtained an inquest was held
No evidence was elicited that served to
throw anv light upon the mystery. The
discoverer knew nothing of it, and no one
present had seen any person in the vicinity
of the canal previous to the finding of the
body.
Au (examination showed that it was a
newly born white female infant, and the
indications were that it had been thrown in
the canal immediately after its birth.
The jury thereupon rt-ndere 1 a verdict
that an unknown infant had come to its
death by drowning in the canal, having been
placed there by a person or persons un
known to the jury.
Robbery and Cutting Affray.
About nine o’clock last night a colored wo
man.wifo of Cornelius Converse, the individ
ual who was recently mentioned in the News
as having walloped his step-son, and in turn
was assaulted, entered a store in Frogtown
to make some purchase. She laid her pocket-
book containing nine dollars aud a half on the
counter, when a trooper who sails under the
name of Wm. Collinger, and who was loafing
about the store, spied it. Watching his
chance, he snaked the wallet, and was
about vamoosing, when he was discovered,
and the husband, Cornelius Converse, ap
pearing at the time, began to “respoatu-
Jate” with him. After some words
William tackled Cornelius with a
knife, and cut him slightly in
the neck, and then made a
break for freedom. He was pursued, and
a policeman coming up, joined in the chase.
William was several times overhauled, but
managed to break loose, leaving portions of
his clothing in the hands of his pursuers.
After clearing several fences aud
running through divers dark lanes, hotly
followed by the policeman, he was
finally captured,nvith nothing on his per
son but a mangled pair of pants. He was
taken to the barracks, and a week hence
will probably bo on his way to spend the
summer in the up country, with the orna
mentation to his ankle of a ball and chain.
Another Cone of Brutality to an Animal.
We learn that on Monday afternoon, be
tween five and six o’clock, a poor horse,
miserable looking and bony, that was draw
ing a large wagon heavily loaded with big
timber, stalled in the deep sand near the
corner of Lincoln and New Houston streets,
when the driver, a negro, began to beat him
unmercifully. The poor beast struggled
fearfully to pull the wagon out of the rut,
but was unable to accomplish it, the load
being too great. This so exasperated the
inhuman negro that he,commenced to be
labor the horse with the heavy but of the
whip. A well known officer in the vicinity,
who chanced to witness this act of
brutality, approached the negro and
informed him if he did not desist he
would have him arrested. This threat had
a salatary effect, and the negro obtaining the
assistance of another trooper, partially un
loaded the wagon, and the animal was then
enabled to move. The fellow gave as an
excuse for maltreating the animal that he
owned him, and had a right to do as he
pleased.
Funeral of Mr. Hooke.
The funeral of Mr. Arthur H. Hoqke, who
died from the effects of injuries received in
the tournament at the Hermitage on the 1st
of May, took plaoe from Christ Chnrch
yesterday afternoon. The services were
conducted by Rev. Geo. D. E. Mortimer,
whose remarks were exceedingly touching.
The Georgia Hussars were out in full
force as a tribute to the memory of their
late comrade, and a pathetic sight
was the horse of the deceased, caparisoned,
led by a colored groom, immediately in the
rear of the hearse. The remains were in
terred in Laurel Grove Cemetery with the
upual honors. In attendance at the faneral
noticed a number of our prominent
citizens.

ftMRftaai.
Tiiii afternoon the Savannah Fire Depart'
ment will celebrate its first anniversary, the
present service having been organized the
7th of Jane, 1875. During this period, an'
der the judicious management of Chief Blair
and his energetic assistant, Dr. Osceola
Batter, its value and efficiency have been re
peatedly demonstrated to the entire satis
faction of this community. That this fact is
appreciated finds evidence in the presenta
tion by Mr. Adam Moffat,general agent of the
Liverpool and Loudon and Globe InsaraDce
Company, to Assistant Chief Bntler, of a
basket of champagne for the reunion to
day, the gift being accompanied by a very
complimentary letter upon the efficiency of
the department, whereby insurance com
panies have been saved on several occasions
considerable amounts. We understand that
like tenders have been received from otbtr
citizens. This is not only exceedingly cred
itable to the department bnt mast be’ grati
fying to Chief Blair and Assistant Chief
Butler, who have certainly proven their
eminent fitness, judgment and discretion lor
the responsible positions they occupy.
The celebration to-day will be quite inter
esting, the introduction of the contest be
tween the steamers being a new feature and
ODe that will be exciting, and show the
department to advantage.
The following programme has been de
cided upon, and will be carried ont in
detail:
The line will form on South Broad street
at Fireman's Hall at 3 o’clock, the right
resting on Abercorn street, facing eaBt in
the following order :
Werner Hook and Ladder Company.

Washington Steam Fire Engine and Hose
Reel No. 1.
German Steam Fire Engine and Hose
Reel No. 2.
Bartow Steam Fire Engine and Hose Reel
No. 3.
Cleburne (anxiliary) Hose Company and
Mutnal Protection (auxiliary) Hose Com
pany.
Tne procession will move precisely at 3}
o’clock as follows: South Broad to East
Broad, East Broad to Bay, Bay to West
Broad, West Broad to South Broad, South
Broad to Drayton, Drayton to Bay, to Ex
change, where the inspection will take
place by the Mayor and Board of Aider-
men.
After the inspection the contest between
the different companies will be conducted
as iollows:

reel will start on the striking of box 17,
take plug and play water on Fireman’s
Hall. The Hook and Ladder will also
respond, throw ladder up agaiust Fireman’s
Hall, a m&u will ascend to the top aud

and take plug and play water on Fireman’s
Hall in ten minutes from the first tap call

and iu five seconds repeated, calling

the contest the apparatns will be drawn up
iu front of Fireman’s Hall, on South Broad
street, and the different companies repair to
the hall, where a collation will be spread,
winding up the programme of the day.
Jury Duty.
Editor Morning Hews:
I am filling at present the lncrative and
honorable position of petty jnror at the
present term of the Superior Court, which
includes an opportunity of studying law in
its various ramifications; of reflection and
observation.
The court room represents a well filled
theatre from pit to dome, the floor being
oocnpied with a goodly array of members
of the legal profession, jurors, Ac., while
the gallery is filled with an attentive aud
lease cloud of colored folks, apparently
absorbed in the proceedings of the court
below.
It is not Judge Tompkins’s fault if the
wheels of justice do not revolve with the
utmost velocity, and criminals, if well de
serving, are not forwarded to their destina
tion, but so winding and circumlocutory is
the course of law that a few cases can only
be tried daily, however.
With all the advantages that may be
accredited to the jury service, it has also its
drawbacks. To be forced into a poorly paid,
unwilling service, kept in a state of perma
nent suspense, aud liable to be fined at any
moment, and more, locked np like a criminal
in the jury room, away from house and
home, put ou bread and water, less tbe
bread, for twenty-four or forty-eight hours,
aDd all because one hard-headed juryman
thinks he knows more than the remainint
eleven and will not yield an inGh. This is
nndoubtedly the most disagretable phase of
jury duty, and supremely absurd to require
ibe human impossibility of entire uuammiiy
of twelve men, of differeut temperaments,
creeds, nationality and phrenological dt
velopments, and the Booaer the law is
amended and the verdict of two-thirds or
three-fourths ,of a jnry be made legal the
better.
But to return to court. To think of so
many men, white and colored, being drawn
from nsefnl labor to form theso daily
levees, and all at the expeuse of the hooeat
industry of Chatham c mnty, because a few
burglarious aud recalcitrant individuals can
lose no opportunity of disturbing the
slumbers of the hen house or practicing the
reverse of good behaviour, is appalling.
People ought to be made more pious or
the operation of law more prompt, simple.
It would seem in all the progress and im
provement going on in every department of
art and science, the department of law
stands still and will not yield to modern
ideas. Jubok.

Wickedness.—Not a bad heart, but a dis
eased liver is often the cause of violence of
temper, vindictiveness, and sometimes
crime ; for, when the spleen is affected the
heart is clogged in its better impulses, for
want of action to carry off the bile.
“I have used Simmons* Liver Regulator
not only once, but often, and can confident-
assert it has done me more good than
any other medipine I have ever used,
think it is the greatest medicine for dis
eased liver made in the world. Many of my
neighbors have used it, and all will say a
much if not more than 1 do for its virtues.
