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. Court House Sales, The attendance at the monthly sales at ths court house yesterday was not very large, and the sales were correspondingly limited. The Sheriff sold the following: Lot No. 14, Bartow ward, property of H. H. Colquitt and Jos. Hull, sold to Georgia Mutual Loan and Building Association for *1,500. Lot No. 7, Elliott ward, belonging to same parties, sold for $100, same association as above becoming purchaser. East half lot No. -30, Washington ward, sold to Georgia Mutual Loan and Building Association for $500. Lot No. 2, Carpenter’s Row, sold to Peo ple’s Loan Association for $1,850. Twelve feet of wharf lot foot of Lincoln street, sold for $650 to Savannah Bank aud Trust Company. Lot No. 33, White ward, sold for $140 to L. H. DeMontmollin, Lot No. 58, White ward, sold to Daniel R. Thomas for $150. Two-fifths of wharf lot No. 15, west of Bull street, sold for $85 to John Lyons. Lot N°- 85, Springfield plantation, sold for $13 to W. U. Garrard. Two hundred and eighty acres of land for taxes to Isaac Beckett for $21. We have no reports of operations from any of the auctioneers, and assume there fore that they effected no sales that it was desirable to make public. Messrs. George Sphley & Co. sold a num ber of horses, mules acd cows at fair prices. Regatta Association. An important meeting of the Regatta As sociation of Georgia will be held at the Screven House to-day to make some changes in the rules and regulations, and perfect arrangements for the race on the 14th inst. It is desired that there be a full attendance of the members. The prospect is there will be a large number of entries, and the lovers of aquatic sports will have a most enjoyable time. Nothing will be left undone to ren der the ofleasion a most pleasureable suc- cess. _ The Effervescing Moussonnadp. In our advertising columns this morning will be found an announcement to the effect that Mr. Jco. Ryan will have on sale, at 110 and 112 Broughton street, the Effervescing Mousseujjada, odo of the most economical, healthy and delicious beverages that has ever been offered to the public.

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. matters and Thins* I.acoalcnllv Noted Small-pox will not attack you if you allow it to take your arm. It is now said that the Bored of Education are the children who hate to go to school. The Chatham Artillery will be the guests of the Washington Artillery at the Fort Moultrie Centennial. The Jasper Greens will be entertained by the Montgomery Guards on the occasion of their visit to Charleston. At a meeting of the Georgia Mutual Loan Association, held last evening, $11,000 were sold at 28 per cent, premium. The “Young Bartows” will be out on the parade to-day. They are twenty-five strong and will present a fine appearance. It is reported in Jacksonville that the troubles of Gallagher, the suspected mail agent, have driven him crazy. This is news to us. The audience in the Court Houbo square last evening, during the concert at Armory Hall, was large, fashionable and appre ciative. The excursion under the auspices of the St. Vincent de Paul Society to the Scbuetzen Park to-morrow will, from all indications, be very largely attended. We understand there will be a large party on the excursion up the canal to-morrow. Mr. Sheftall particularly announces that n disreputable characters will be allowed on board the barge, The strictly cash in advance system is meeting with favor among the city subscri bers to the Mobning News. Yesterday a large Dumber stepped into the office and paid up for another year. The J. B. Gordon Council, No. 250, United Friends of Temperance, will give an excur sion on or about the 20th inst. The com mittee in charge are determined to make this cue of the grandest affairs of the season. It is asserted that in the event an acci dent should occur on the Atlantic and Gulf Railroad, the philosophical engineer will quietly squat himself among the debris of his engine, aDd con over the general orderB to ascertain what he is to do next. We learn that Messrs. Pritchard & Morel reoeived a telegram from Washington last evening, stating that the Committee of For eign Affairs had met and adjourned without touching the Hawaiian question, and that such action was considered fayorable by our delegation now in Washington. There is nothing that inspires an editor with a high appreciation of his abilities half so much as to see half a dozen meD, well armed, waiting to ask him “who wrote that article.” There is a sort of fascination about the thiog that can't be described to the uninitiated.—JEx. “Veil, s&re,” said a Centennial restaurant keeper, shrugging his shoulders when a customer from Savannah demurred to paying one dollar for a cup of eoffee and a roll, “ze price he may lnke large, zat I admete; but, zen, sare; reflect zat yon nafer hafe anozzer shance like zese for une hundred years.” A scientist affirms that eventually, as our globo contracts, there will be only thirteen days in the year. It will be jolly to have Fourth of July, Christmas, Washington's Birthday, and all the rest of the holidays, in one week, and be able to remind creditors who come nosing around that legal holidays mnst be respected. 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, im■ Chatham Superior Court.

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. AS UNKNOWN. Body of a White Infant Canal. Found in the Yesterday afternoon about six o’clock a colored man whilst walking homeward along the Ogeechee canal discovered float ing in the water near the railroad bridge the body of a white female infant. He brought the body to land and at once notified the Coroner; in the meantime the news of the discovery 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. Figured Drees Linens redneed from 25c. to 20o.

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. Music. 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: German Fire Company engine No. 2 and 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 immediately descend In ten minutes from the time of the first tap of box 17. One tap will be given, and repeated in five seconds, calling engine No. 1 and reel (Wasbington), which will respond and take plug and play water on Fireman’s Hall in ten minutes from the first tap call ing engine No. 1. Three taps will be struck, and iu five seconds repeated, calling engine No. 3 and reel (Bartow), which will respond, take ping and play water on Fireman’s Hall. No engine will be allowed to steam up until the alarm is sounded tbat is to call ber. After 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. »*les SHIay.

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.
