The anniversary of the birth of General Robert E. Lee, the South’s loved and hon ored chieftain, was celebrated in a glorious manner by our volunteer soldiery yesterday afternoon. As was stated, the Georgia Hussars, Chatham Artillery and Savan nah Volunteer Guards, with the desire to render the occasion as imposing aa possi ble, had agreed to unite with the First Georgia Regiment ia the parade. In accordance with the orders issued the various commands reported on South Broad street, when the brigade was formed about half-past three o’clock, and marched down Bull street to Bay, thence to Drayton, and out Drayton street to the Park extension. The Park and surroundings were thronged with ladies and children, and the scene in every respect was a gala one. After reach ing the grounds, the Chatham Artillery were brought in position and tired a salute of thirteen guns iu splendid style, in honor of the day. After the artillery salute the Hussars, Chatbsms and Savannah Volunteer Guards passed in review before the First Regiment, and were properly saluted. After the review the regiment, which pre sented an unusually fine appearance, the various companies, particularly the Repub lican Blues aud Jasper Greens, showing full ranks, were formed in line fronting north. The Oglethorpes and German Valuuteers also made a fine display. The regiment nas exercised in firiDg—first by companies, divisions and as a whole. The firing was unusually fine, but in re gard to the firing by companies, we are in clined to award the palm to the Irish Ja3por Greens. Their firing was but as one volley, aud reflected the highest credit upon tiio company, and being noted, was universally commended. Iu the firing hy divisions the left took the honors. The regimental firing could not have been better, and the salute was as from one gun. After the regiment had been exercised in drill, the several companies were turned over to their respective commanders and the parade was dismissed. The Guards, who made a splendid turn out under Major Ba.-inger, after the parade and review, iudu’ged in tirmg by platoons, both retreating aud advancing, and, as ubu&I, did their corps credit. Captain George W. Stiles, of Company A, who has been seriously ill for some time, made bis appearance in a vehicle with a friend, and attested his interest in the corps by following the precession to the Park ex tension aud witnessing the proceedings there. The Georgia Hussars and Chathams had their usual exercises, aud their manoeuvres were witnessed by crowds of admiring friends. On the return to the city proper tho Re publican Blues proceeded to their armory, where a magnificent punch, prepared by that prince of mixologists, Frank Bergman, of the Screven House, awaited their consid eration. The Blues, of course, had a jolly time, and various were the speeches and comments made. Tho popular and much beloved Captain, George A. Mercer, made a characteristic speech, in which he com plimented most highly, but not un deservedly, the non-commissioned officers, specially mentioning the election of the First Sergeant, Mr. John H. Griffin, and oommeuting upon his popularity aud effi ciency. A real merry time was had, aud after* a full discussion of the palatable punch the Blues accepted au invitation to the armory of the Jasper Greens, where speeches replete with patriotism and elo quence were made by Lieutenant McFar land and others. Thero were no other convivialities so far as we know, except among the Guards, the Hussars and tho Chathams. Tho day was most appropriately observed, and the celebration was not only a credit to the occasion, but to the volunteer soldiery. Sharper* About. Three gentleman just arrived by steamer from New York or Philadelphia, were last evening accosted by a vompagnondu, voyage who called himself Mr. Carey, and who in troduced a friend as Mr. Dix, and repre sented him as a nephew of General John A. Dix, of New York. The latter named worthy pair proposed refreshments and took pain*- to separate the three intended victims, with the object, it is supposed,of facilitating their purposes. The genial Dix stated to one of tho gen tlemen that he had won twelve hundred dol lars in a game of lottory, aud invited him to an up stairs rcom on a side street iu the vioinity of Bull street, to witness tho operation of obtaining the cash for his prize, which was acceded to. After some preliminaries, the stranger was invited to try his tortuue at the money-making game, wnich was declined for want of funds. To obviate the difficulty he was asked to put up his watch. The game, however, did not take, the pigeon ihat was to have been plucked calmly walked out and wended his way back to his hotel, where he ielated his adventures. Whose Baby * Yesterday morning about eleven o’clock a mulatto woman, named Diana Proctor, living ou Jefferson stroet, south of Gaston, appeared at tho police barracks and stated that between ten aud twelve o’clock on the night of tho 17th a young white baby had been left on the stoop of her house. She said that attached to the clothes of this child, who is quite a handsome male infant, was a piece of paper with the words, “Two months old” written upon it. The woman stated that she thought it right to report tho case, but expressed her willingness to take the child and bring it up, and she was permitted to do so. A Good Cargo. The Norwegian bark Nystad, Captain J. Christensen, was yeeterday cleared at the Custom House by Messrs. Hoist, Fullartou & Co., fur Cork for orders, with a cargo of 1.G00 bales of cotton, weighing 735,722 pounds. This vessel loaded at Charleston last season under most favorable circum stances. and carried 1,450 bales of cotton, weighing G57.G14 pounds, of which seventeen bales were ou deck. Those figures speak iu a most commendatory manner of tho facili ties of our port, and Messrs. Ward & Power, who were tho stevedores, and the Tyler press may well be proud of their woik aud workmen. Lumber Exports. Messrs. Syberg-Petersen & C>. cleared yesterday the Norwegian bark Kromos, Captain Bertsen, for Barcelona, with a cargo consisting of 3,083 pieces of pitch pine lumber, measuring 240,407 feet, valued at $3,72G. Splendid .Sport. It will be observed by advertisement else where that Mr. Andrew Goebel, tho pro prietor of tho Broughton Street Saloon, con templates having magnificent sport at his saloon to-night.

Schuyler at the low rate of $2, with state rooms and meals extra. This, to use a common phrase, is “dirt cheap,” and will undoubtedly result in a large patronage of this fine and commodious boat. It will also be seen that the “Commodore” will run the steamer Twi light ou the merchant’s line, in connection with tho Schuyler, between Charleston, Sa vannah and Florida, thus affording three trips weekly to Jacksonville. The Schuyler is well officered, is com tor table, and passengers can not do bettor than to make the trip to the flowery land by this route.

Report of the Late Epidemic of Yellow Fever In Georgia. [From the Atlanta Constitution.] The State Board of Health assembled in this city yesterday to hear the report of Dra, J. P. Logan and George Little, on the sub ject of the late epidemics in Georgia. The paper was read by Dr. J. P. Logan, and is a valuable scientific paper. The report consists of— 1. Topography of Savannah, Brunswick, Macon and Augusta. 2. Meteorological reports. 3. As to the sanitary condition of Savannah prior to and during the epidemic. 4. The history of the epidemic at Savan nah . 5. Evidence in favor of the importation of the disease. G. Evidence in favor of th’e malarial origin of the disease. 7. The epidemic in the vicinily of Savan nah. 8. The epidemic at Brunswick. 9. The epidemic open Dx.boy Island. 10. The epidemic at Macon. 11. The epidemic at Augusta. 12. Recommendations as to the prevention of the disease. REMARKABLE FACT. The meteorological tables show a remark able fact that during the month of Jun9 for the years 1373-74-75 rain was a little over 4 inches, while during the same mouth in 1876 it was 18:3 inches, and this was nearly all within ten days. SANITARY CONDITION OF SAVANNAH. The lowlands which surround the city are undrained, and the terras of the dry culture contracts are not complied with. The con ditions of the sewers and canals Were ob jectionable. The method of cleansing privy vaults and the disposition of their contents is objectionable. The present system of dis posing ot the offal of tho city is exceedingly dangerous to the health of the city. The water supply of the city is contaminated with organic matter. The well water, ac cording to the Surveyor, is anything but pure, some of it tasting like Epsom salts. FACTORS OF MALARIAL DISEASE. During the months of June and July, August aDd September, 1876, the factors of malarial disease, both telluric and meteoro logical, were unusually and extraordinarily active in and about Savannah. From these causes there was instituted prior to the oc currence of yellow fever an epidemic of malarial diseases, which epidemic, modified by the graver disease developed at a later period, was in existence until late iu the la’l. That the city of Savannah habitually suf fers from malarial diseases is evident from the mortuary tables of Dr. Duncan. There died from miasmatic diseases tho following: Iu 1870—248 in a total of 1,015. In 1871—235 in a total of 1,033. In 1872—288 iu a total of 1,165. In 1873—271 in a total of 1,290. In 1874—192 in a total of 1,036. In 1875—162 in a total of 887. Thus in six years out of 6,426 deaths 1,396 wore from miasmatic diseases. These fi.^ ures indicate a low rate of mortality for a city of 30,000 inhabitants. The first recognized case of yel’ow fever was that of a Mr. ttchall, admitted to the marine hospital on July 28lh, from the schooner Severo. IMPORTATION OF THE DIriEtSE. The evidence ehows that in the month of July three Spanish vessels arrived at Savan nah from Cuban ports which were infteted with yellow fever prior to their departure. One of these vessels discharged ono hun dred tons of ballast at tho Central Railroad wharf, and her crew of fifteen men with their mattresses, biaukets and clothing, went into lodging houses on Indiau street. The other two discharged one hun dred aud ninety tons of ballast at tho Atlantic and Gulf Railroad wharf, and their crews, consisting of thirty-four men. went into lodging also with clothing, etc., at Mrs. lledgate’s, near the block first in fected. Iu August four Spanish vessels came from Havana, yeilow fever prevailing thero at their departure iu an epidemic form. One discharged fifty tons of ballast at the Central Railroad wharf, and the crew of ten men, with their bedding and clothing, went to sailor boarding houses in the wes ern portion of the city. The other three vessels discharged five hundred tons of bal last at the Atlantic aud Gulf Railroad wharf, while their crews, consisting of forty men, with their clothing, etc., went into sailor boarding houses, probabiy Mrs. lledgate’s, in the eastern portion ot the city. The only facts connected with these ves sels or interest, which is at present abso lute, is that they cleared from a port in fected with yellow fever, and prior to their arrival at the port of Savannah, no autheu ticated casts of the disease had occurred iu that city. Thomas Cleary was taktn sick with the lever after digging among the ballast dis charged trom these vessels, and his com rades (with but two exceptions) had the disease about the same time. The locality in which the first group of yellow fever cases occurred was the nearest block of tenements to the Atlantic and Gulf Railroad wharf, and directly in the line of communi cation between the city and vessels takiDg cargo at that point. It is a matter of great significance that at this identical point all former epidemics of yellow fever originated. The two first cases of tho disease had been iu the immediate vicinity of the bus- pected vessels. • A resident of station contracted the disease after sleeping one night on a car which arrived the same evening from Sa vannah. Fifty cases were reported in 31 aeon of persons who had not been exposed to the infection in Savannah or Brunswick, and twenty-five cases of refugees. preventive measures. For all practical purposes it is not neces sary to demonstrate whether yellow fever is always imported, or whether, under certain peculiar aud exceptionable circumstances, it arrives upon our coast from local causes alone. That it can bo imported, and will or can become epidemic from the ueglectof proper sanitary regulations in certain locali ties,- will not be questioned. That it inty be imported and not becomo epidemic, iu tho abscnco of circumstances which favor its propagation, will also be admitted. The evidence iu connection with the his- t' ry of yellow fever aud that specially bear ing* on this investigation that the diseaeo was probably imported is very strong, and the evidence that tho disease may have orig inated from or was aggravated by local causoB is sufficiently strong to arrest our at tention from the fact that whether true or not equally serious results may occur from a neglect cf local sanitary precautions in furnishing tho favorable conditions for its propagation when introduced from abroad. Iq the case before us, go far as Savannah ia concerned, it would seem there was no sufficient reason why tho disease should not have been im ported from tho admitted inefficiency of the external hygiene or quarantine, or on the other hand why this or any other disease possible to the locality might not have ori giuated there from the great neglect of its Internal hygiene. The board advocate a inore rigid and effective system of quaran tine, judiciously adapted to the wants of commerce and the hygienic welfare of com munities. Quarantine is tho only safo pre ventive system for the preservation of pub lic health from the introduction of diseases from abroad. The argument drawn from the history of yellow fever is altogether in favor of its importation, as exhibited by the fact that its occurrence is in localities in commercial connection with infected ports, aud that the first cases are usually those who have been in some way directly or indirectly engaged in such oommerce, or that the disease has first appeared in the vicinity of modes of transit by which the disease may have been conveyed, or it has occurred near the docks, or in the nearest points or habitation to the harbor or to the terminus of lines of com munication on land from such ports. The recent epidemic affords upon the whole no exceptions but a confirmation of these facts. It was introduced into Bruns wick through her port, having just ap peared iu connection with the vessels in her harbor, spreading through the town gradu ally from that quarter. And so as to Do- boy, Iale of Hope, Macon and Augusta. The lacis are absolutely convincing. Whiie such positive evidence may be wanting iu Savannah, from the inability to trace directly the infection, and from the unquestionable complication of local causes, the point at which the disease first appeared, its connection with the sailor boarding houses, the fact that these particular locali ties were in no worse condition than in for mer years, and upon the presumption that they (if furnishing the germinal principle of the disease should be afftoted every yGar) furnishes an inferential argument, difficult to resist, that Savannah was no exception to the other localities. The board cite strong facts proving the officacy of quarantine in New York and other places. They consider it as an iudispenpable necessity to thr permanent salubrity of Sa vannah that there should be radical changes in its draiuage, sewerage and water supply. The low grounds surrounding the city with a cordon of malarial influences should be thoroughly and systematically drained. The board aro firmly convinced that with a proper regard to the laws of health in con nection with an enlightened system of ex ternal and internal hygiene, Savannah or Georgia should never again be visited by so desolating a Bcourge. Tbat these questions, involving tho welfare of large portions of her people in their megas aud health, ^ud the value of lives knd money beyood oalou- lation, should becomo the subject of .the benevolent care, as well as of legislative’ in terference and control upon the part of the State, is, in our judgment, the imperative duty of the hour. The report was adopted and ordered printed. Dr. J. G. Thomas, the President, who was detained, is expected here to-day. The board meets at 11 a. m. to-day.

A report was circulated yesterday morn ing early that a man named Sullivan had been horribly cut and fatally injured by Daniel L. Moses,at a saloon on South Broad street, shortly after midnight. Upon inves tigation we ascertained there was truth in the report, and obtained the following par ticulars, which are deemed to be correct : It seems that a young man named James Sullivan, who was a candidate for constable at the late e’ection in the Fourth District, entered the saloon of D. L. Modes, on South Broad street, about 8 o'clock on Thursday night, and whilst there got into some dis pute with Moses, who, it is stated, was in an angry mood, and asked if “he(Moses)was the man everybody was afraid of?” Some hard words followed this, but, according to our information, no violence was resorted to, and shortly afterwards Sullivan left the place and proceeded to another saloon in the neighborhood. About twelve o’clock Moses came into the saloon and remained there a brief time, but had no words with Sullivan, who was present. After a while Sullivan left the saloon and went into the back yard, whither, it is stated, he was followed by Moses, and the attack ensued. Sullivan stated to his physician tbat the first intimation he had of the pre sence of Moses was a severe cut in the back of bis head. He turned to resist the assault and a fearful struggle followed. Sullivan grabbed the knife with bis right hand, and was horribly cut, the flesh being peeled or torn almost clean from the bone. He also received a bid stab in the side and a severe cut across the left baud. No one was pres ent at the time, but the noise ot the strug gle attracted occupants of the saloon, and Mosc-s fled. Sullivan, who was bleeding terribly, was conveyed to his residence on Bryan street, near Ea6t Broad, where Drs. Martin and Stone attended him. We learn from Dr. Martin that the cuts in the right hand are the mos; serious, as it is possible that lockjaw may en sue, and under any circumstances it will be many months before the hand can bo used. The wound iu the head is also seri ous, but not necessarily fatal. It was re ported during the day that Sullivan could not live, and that the Coroner had been sent f >r to take his deposition but at a late hour last night we learned from his physician that there was no immediate danger. It may here be stated that at the time of the first difficulty Moses called for the “po lice,” and an officer in the vicinity hastened to the saloon, but on his arrival there found all quiet and no complaint was made, and the policeman left the premises.* After tho cutting affair information was given at the barracks, and a policeman went to Moses’ house in starch of him, but failed to find him. A search wag made for him, however, and about four o’clock yes- tt rday morning a second visit was mado to his saloon, aud he was captured iu his bed room and taken to the barracks, where he ia now incarcerated. We leara that Moses contends that ho ia not to blame, and that he is perse cuted. For some time past he has been out on bond to answer the charge of assault with intent to murder, made during or 8hortlv before tbe epidemic. Yesterday af ternoon Mr. M. M. Sullivan, brother of the injured man, took out a warrant in Magis trate’s Abram’s office, charging Moses with assault with intent to murder, aud this morning he will be arraigned before the magistrate for preliminary examination, but in view of the critical condition of Sul livan, will probably be bound over.
