XVls-tf The Germ Theory. As tho “germ theory” is tho subject of much loeal interest just now, it is appropri ate to mention than at a late meeting of the Brooklyn (N. Y.) Philosophical Club, Dr. Robert Ormieton read a carefully prepared paper on “Infectious Diseases, or tho Germ Theory.” Ho said that the theory explained all the phenomena of infectious diseases iu the most satisfactory manner. The lecturer traced at great length the nature of infec tious diseases and their devastation on the human race, instancing, as a proof of the latter evil, tbo epidemic known as “black death,” which raged in Enrope during the fourteenth century, and which carried off twenty-seven millions of the in habitants. He said that he had been gradually forced to the conclusion every specific disease has its germ that Scarlet fever can only be obtained from a scarlet fever germ, and, likewise, small-pox from a small-pox germ. It must always bo kept in mind that germs may be so infinitely minute as to elude tho microscope. The in finitely minute cannot be fathomed any more 'than the infinitely great. It was hardly judicious to sav, however, that cer tain germs do not exist in the air because instruments and the eye are unable to detect or discover them. Dr. Ormiston, iu con cluding, cited a great number of scientific experiments to prove the consistency of his theory. He was loudly applauded on taking his seat, and a number of members took part iii a subsequent discussion. ^•button black kii gluves, the best quality |r wortl1 A ‘ 5 a Pair, at only 50 cts, Pasbeia’a Cheap Dry Goods House. novlS-tf hf of all kind? much lower than ever, j 1 9 f-’heai Dry Goods House. novlS-t P-wooi biag flannel, only 25 cents, worth dou- V^Cheap Dry Goods House.

The fair for the benefit of St. Mathew’s Chapel, which was inaugurated at the Pa vilion Hotel last night under the auspices of ladies of tho several Episcopal Churches, was well attended, and promises to prove a success. A splendid supper was laid out, and those who were fortunate enough to be present felt amply repaid by the enjoyment of the numerous good things. To-day there will be a fine lunch set out from twelve to one o’clock, and those of our business men who generally indulge iu this noon feast should drop in and see the ladies. To-night there will be a splen did hot supper prepared between the hours of nine and ten o’clock p. m., and a fine op portunity will thus be offered the members of our military companies after the fatigues of their parade to refresh themselves. The steamer J. B. Schuyler returned from Tybee yesterday, being unable to proceed on her trip to Florida on account of the heavy fog. When a man gets mad because his friends show a disinclination to stand perfectly still and hear him talk for hoars he certainly must be very cruel. In order to avoid answering the question ‘‘Who is elected,” the novel plan of present ing printed cards bearing the legend “Dam- fino” has been adopted. Rev. Edward Beecher ssya that men will yet live to the ago of 1,000 years. So, after all, we may probably gee tbo end of the present Presidential contest. A placard at ihe Cotton Exchange yester day announced the receipts at New Orloans for the day to be but threo bales, the denso fog proventing the arrival of steamers. Rev. F. M. Eckert, pastor of the colored Cathedral, has been presented a magnifi cent sanctuary lamp for his church by the reverend gentlemen of the Bishop’s hou-o. From the interest that is manifested in the approaching engagement of the cele brated actress Miss Mary Anderson we predict crowded and fashionable audiences daring her stay. We had a pleasant call yesterday from Mr. James R. Richards, the clever repre sentative of the firm of Smith, Dixon & Co., of Baltimore, large paper manufacturers. Ho is stopping at the Screven House. Yesterday afternoon that traveled billv goat ran against a gentleman on Congress street, knocking him down. The fall was a heavy one and ho seriously injured his arm. Billy next knocked down a child on Bull street, but fortunately the little innocent was unhurt. An irascible candidate, in his wrathful de nunciation of a political opponent, capped the climax of epithets with, “You are not only a rara acis, but I might almost say a genus homo.' 1 How thankful the victim must have been that even the bitterness of politics spared him that last reproach. Mr. R. It. Bren, ageut of the Connecticut Mutual Life Insurance Company, yesterday received a check for $5,029 G3, in favor of the beneficiaries of the late Mr. John Evans, who died in New York last summer. The policy was for $5,000, and the additional amount is the dividend. An Important .Meeting of the Savannah Christian Association. At the monthly mooting of the Savannah Christian Association, which was held at their rooms on Wednesday evening, the question of the continuance or dissolution of the association was considered. This question was brought up not only on ac count of tho lack of interest manifested among the members proper, but because the support and encouragement from the citizens generally were not equal to the re quirements. Considerable excitement, how ever, was happily awakened by the sugges tion to dissolve*, and many pledged them selves to devoto more energy to the work. It was determined to move the rooms to a more eligible situation, collect more money and pro?s on with-renewed vigor. As the association wants encouragement and full attendance at its meetings not only of members, but of all citizens who approve of its work, as well as money to carry it on, it is hoped that every one will lend what as sistance ho or she can to the good cause. The new rooms are to be over Theus’jewelry store, and it is the intention to render them as comfortable and attractive as the means of the association will permit. If the citi- zeus contribute, as it is hoped they may, in personal help and encouragement and money, these rooms will be the most attrac tive in the city. An unlimited number of magazines and periodicals, as well as a fine library of s’audard books, will be open and freo to all, and an employee will be on hand to attend to the wants of visitors. It is de sired that every citizen will use the rooms freely and will introduce strangers visiting the city, both during the day and evening. Wide Awoke lor February, J8T7. Wide Awake for February opens with “Little True Blue,” by Lucia Chase Bell, a stirring Minnesota winter story. Mr. Wm. M. F. Round follows with “Child Marian Abroad,” in which Mariau has a very fanny experience in tryiDg to see Queen Victoria. Mrs. Whiton’s exquisite poem, “A Little Child’s Fancies,” is exquisitely illustrated by a full page drawing from the pencil of Miss L. B. Humphrey. There are many other short stories and poems. The first of the promised “Flossy and Bossy” stories re lates to “Uncle Martin’s Wig.” Flossy and Bossy are “truly” girls, the little daughters of a “truly” minister, and everything told in these stories really happened. Only $2 per annum. D. Lothrop A Co., publishers. A Grnnd Hupper. The YouDg Ladies’ Port Sewing Society will give a supper at Armory Hall on next Tuesday night, for the benefit of the sea men. This is one of the noblest charities in our city, and tho young ladies composing the society are entitled to the highest com mendation for their arduous labors in behalf of those “who go down to tho sea in big ships.” The supper which will be given by them is to raise funds to further their plans for the benefit ot the seamen, and we hope that a generous aDd charitable community will render them cheerful aid in this good cause. Cotton for Liverpool- Messrs. Holst, Fullarton & Co. cleared yesterday tho Gorman bark Marie, Captain Reiners, for the port named above, with a cargo consisting of 1,397 bales of upland cotton, weighing G42,186 pounds, and valued at $G8,3U5, and 15 bags of sea island cotton, weighing 5,213 pounds, and valued at $1,503 90. Total weight 647,399 pounds, value $69,868 89. The New Pastor of Trinity Church. The Columbus Times of the 16th has the following paragraph which will be of some interest to our readers: “We had the pleasure yesterday of reading a portion of a private letter from Rev. It. J. Corley, late pastor of St. Luke’s Church in this city, written from Savannah, his new field of labor, in which his heart seems full to overflowing with admiration and love for the people of Savannah as a community and as individuals. ‘The late epidemic made large provisions for orphan children and for widows neces sary, and nobly has Savannah met the emer gency. She has established one asylum for orphan boys and two for orphan girls, and two Widows’ Homes for the needy and de serving poor ; also a Home for the Home less, where all who need food may go and get a meal, and where young women out of em ployment may find a temporary home until a situation can be secured. This last named institute is kept up by public and private charities, and the lady in charge gets $500 per mouth for distribution among the needy. “A few days after Mr. Corley had entered on his work the Mayor of Savannah sent him a check for $500, to be used amongst the poor of his church. He says iu his let ter : “ The people here, as churches, and a municipal corporation, and as iudi- vidual?, exceed any 1 have over seen for the variety and extent of their noble charities.’ “It affords ns great pleasure to publish facts so honorable to oar neighbors ; hence we asked the privilege of quoting from Mr. Colley’s letter.” Kt. Rev. Innatlua Persico, D. D. The Rt. Rev. Dr. Persico, of the Order of Capuchins, Bishop of Bolina, in partibus in- fidelium, and formerly Bishop of Savannah, has arrived in Rome. He labored zealously for sixteen years in the Missions of India, where he was Vicar Apostolic of Agra from 1854 to 1860. Appointed Bishop of Savan nah in 1870, he resigned his See two years later. He latterly performed the humble duties of parish priest in the Diocese of Quebec, Canada, but the climate of that legion being injurious to his health, ho found himself obliged to return to his own country. The Archbishop of Que bec and several other Canadian Bishops sent Bishop Persico, at the time gf his departure, addresses in wh ch they expressed their gratitude for the services he had rendered them during his stay apaong them, and their sorrow at his leaving Canada. The Holy Father, wishing to avail himself of Bishop Persico’s talents, is about to assign him a diocese in the province of Naples, his native country.—Southern Cross. Who Pay the Taxes? Editor Morning yews: Seeing an extract in your valuable paper of yesterday, taken from the Columbus Times, giving a list of names in that city of all persons who pay taxes on ten thousand dollars and upwards, I would aBk that you favor vour readers with a like list, taken from the books of our City Treasurer, alter our citizens have generally made their returns. As our new city ordinance takes all species of property (except such bonds as are exempt by law), such a list would enable our people to see who a* e our heavy tax-payers. H.

Persons are cautioned not The Statistical Committee of the Augusta Exchange have made the following report for January : To the President and Board of Directors of the Augusta Exchange: Gentlemen—The correctness of the in formation received by us from our corres pondents in reply to questions sent them for our November report, upon the prospects and condition of the cotton crop of this sec tion, having been called into question in well informed circles, we deemed it best to send out the same series of questions again, to cover the month of December, with spe cial request to our correspondents to be very careful in their answers to our 3d and 4th questions. We now beg to submit the fol lowing summary of 23 replies received from 18 counties, under date of January 1st. 1st Qaestion—H&s the weather for gath ering the crop been more or less favorable during the month of December than last year ? Answer—rhe weather is universally reported as far less favorable than in 1875. The laBt ten days of the month continued frosty, storms virtually suspending all labor in the fields. 2d Qaestion—What proportion of the crop has been picked, and when will it ail be gathered? Answer—The crop is reported as absolutely all picked, except in two counties, but the cotton left in the fields there is an insignificant percentage, and so ruined by the late storms that it is not now likely to be gathered. 3dQuestion—Will the yield in your county be greater or less than last year ? State increase or decrease. Answer—The average of our replies state the yield very positively as less by per eenh than last season. This on an acreage of 54 to 6 per cent, less than in 1875, would iudicate an out-turn greater by about 3 per cent, per aero, than during the previous season. 4th Question—What proportion -jf the crop has been marketed from your section ? Answer—The proportion of the crop al ready marketed is placed on an average at 80 per cent. 5th Question—State fully and ail material facts relative to the yield, nos covered by the | foregoing questions. Answer—Red lands have, as a rule, yielded much more largely than last year, while light sandy soils have not done as well as during the preceding season. There seems to be no doubt that the crop has yielded more lint in proportion to seed cotton than usual. The staple of all grades has proven very su perior, while the average grade of the crop has been more uniform and decidedly above that of last season, but with a larger propor tion of high colored and frost-stained cot ton. Your committeo beg to call your attention to the fact that our corre spondents now report the out-turn of the crop at 974 per cent, of that of last season, as against 92 per cent, on the 1st of December, and the proporiion mar keted January 1st, at 80 per cent., as against 75 per cent, reported 1st December. As matter of further information, and for pur poses ot comparison with the above, your committoe beg to state that they have ob tained the views and estimates of 22 receiv ers and factors of cotton iu this city, as to tho probable receipts at this point for the current season, with the following result, brought iu comparisou with last season’s receipts : Actual total receipts, 1875-6,169,986 bales receipts to January 1,1876,126,837 bales; per centage of receipts to January 1. 187G, 0.74 61-100; estimated total receipts 1876-7, 178, 700 bales; receipts to January 1, 1877, 151,- 085 bales; percentage of receipts to January 1, 1877, 0.76 04-100. Of our receipts up to the 1st instant, as near as can be ascertained, eome 8,000 or 10,000 bales were due to the long continued epidemic at Savannah. But fully as much cotton was lost to this market by increased direct shipments to Northern mills and to ports, from Atlanta, Athens and other tributary interior points. If these premises are correct, as we believe they aro, the ex pected increase in receipts at this point of nearly 20,000 bales ought to represent quite closely the increased production of the terri tory for which Augusta serves as a market, aud woffld indicate an increased yield of lGj per cent, over last season. We state these facts for your information and for purposes of comparison with the conclusions derived from the letters of our correspondents. Our cotton factors cover a much larger field of information than your committee. They are individually acquainted with the locali ties where their correspondents live; and for obvious reasons, watch tho results of planting operations with great care and at tention. With perfect confidence in the good faith and sincerity of our correspon dents, as to their statements of facts, we cannot refrain from calling your attention tc the great* discrepancy between their opinions and those of our factors, whose views furthermore are so clearly in accord with the statistical information, both by our State and the Uuited States Agricultural De partments. We beg to add, as matter of further in terest aud information, that an average of the estimates of thirty-eight cotton mer chants of ibis city places the cotton crop of the United States for the current season at 4,320,000 bales. Very respectfully, L. L. ZuLAVeKY, Chairman; J. J. Pearce, J. W. Echols, It. W. Heard, C. A. Rowland, A. M. Benson, W. M. Read, Committee. COURT CALENDAR. The Had Death of Lucille Wentern. A brief telegraphic dispatch has an nounced the death in Brooklyn, N. Y., of Fauline Lucille Western, well known to the play-goers of Savannah, with whom she was very popular, and hence a short sketch of her life will prove of interest: Miss Lucille Western was the elder of the Western sisters, Helen, the other sistor, who died some years ago, having also been an actress. Lucille was born in New Or leans on the 8th of January, 1833, aud made her first appearance ou tho stage iu the same city in 1858, with her sister, in a play called “The Three Fast Men”—apiece which was considered so very immoral that tho stepfather of tho sisters, W. B. English, who was also their manager, was enjoined by tho courts from producing it in certain citif s. Afterward Lucille Western acted in Philadelphia under tho management of Leonard Grover, and then she obtained recognition as an actress of power. Iu 1860 or thereabout sho appeared in Baltimore iu a play written by Mr. Clifton Tayleure. of Brooklyn, upon a novel by Mrs. lleury Wood called “East Lynne,” This drama upon which Mr. Tayleure never set any great value, and which be sold for a comparatively small sum of money to Miss Western, made for that lady fame and for tune. During sixteen years it is estimated that tho profits of “East Lynne” which sho produced in all the Southern and Western nitiaa oti.rii lt^ttrncn HtVl an/1 ftttA cities, were between $250,000 and $300,000. At the time of her death she was under engagement at the Park Theatre, Brooklyn. She appeared for the last time on Wednes day, the 10th, at the matinqe, when she be gan to feel her illness (which was caused by a severe cold) in a serious light, and a Miss Tiffany assumed her part. The Brooklyn Argus of the 12th says: Miss Western had previously been oppor- tuned by her physician, Dr. b. Fleet Speer, to relinquish her engagement, but she in sisted ou playing as long as she was able to do bo. After leaving the theatre on Wednesday nfternoon she hurried to the Tierrepont House, and upon reaching her room immediately went to bed. Dnring the night she grew much worse, and when Dr. Speer, who was summoned, arrived, she was in a high fever, and he at once saw that she had pneumonia. Yesterday morning she ate a light breakfast and appeared much better. Last evening at 5 o'clock she called Mr. Cambridge, her agent, to her bedside, and said, “la it time to go to the theatre?” Bhe was informed that AILs Tiffany was to take her part, and she appeared satisfied aud laid, “Oh ! yes ; I remember now.” At seven o’clock it became necessary to remove her from her bed so that the clothing might be arranged. While this was being done she reclined upon a lounge. Upon her re turn to her bed she fell heavily on the pillow, and, motioning the nurses to leave, sho beckoned Mr. Cambridge to her side, nnd, clasping her aims around his neck, sho said: “I am going to die. You’ve been a good friend to me, Arthur, but I’ve found rest at last.” Her physician was imme diately summoned, but before he arrived the spirit of Pauline Lucille Western had laken flight. Previous to her heath her mother was telegraphed to as to her sickness, and an answer was received directin' her to be brought home immediately, but life had de parted before it was received. “She died like a child aud without a strug gle,” said Mr. Cambridge, in an interview this morning. “She has been the worst treated woman that ever walked the boards,” he continued, “she has lost over $500,000 by trusting people who imposed upon her. She was a good woman and had a kind heart.” Colonel Sinn, Mr. George EdesoD, Mr. John Wild and Mr. Arthur G. Chambers de scribes Miss Western as having been a wo man of indomitable will, and one who was ever willing to assist those deserving of charity. United States Circuit Coart.
