At 12 m. yesterday the long anticipated
meeting for conference with the bondhold
ers of the city of Savannah took place at
the Exchange. The city wag represented !
by the Mayor and the entire Board of Alder- i
men, and there was a very large attendance i
of citizens.
Shortly after 12 o’clock Mr. Henry Blan
moved that General H. R. Jackson be called
to the chair, which motion was seconded.
Mayor Wheaton arose and stated that,
under the peculiar circumstances, the city
government would prefer that some gentle
man outside of the city should preside at
this meeting, and moved that organization
be delayed a short time. Perso nally, ho
would be pleased to have the gentleman
named preside, bat thought it best that
some citizen outside should he Chairman.
General Jackson agreed with the views
and begged to decline the honor.
After the lapse of about ten minutes
May or VS Leaton moved th»t Wm. A. Walton,
Eeq., of Augusta, be called to tbe chair.
Mr. Walton stated that he was not a dele
gate, and only represented a few claimants.
He had not attended the meeting in Au
gusta, and had not attended this githeriug
for the uurpose of taking official part in the
proceedings, and begged to bo excused.
Mayor Wheatou hoped the gentleman
would consent to preside, as he was assured
the meeting desired it.
Mr. Walton stated, under the circum
stances, if it wai the wish of the meeting
he would withdraw his objections and con
sent, aod therenpon took the chair, making
a few remarks appropriate to the occasion.
The election of Secretary was announced
in order, but cousiderable difficulty was ex
perienced in obtaining this necessary official,
the several gentF-men nominated dodiuing,
stating that they were liable to be called
out any moment on important business.
Af'er Messrs. D. R. Thom is, James Hanter,
A. S. Hartridge, George W. Lamar and G.
B. Pritchard, were successively called upon,
Major Henry Bryan was at last prevailed to
accept and took the Secretary’s chair.
This bung accomplished, the Chair an-
nounc -1 that the meeting was open to busi
ness.
Mayor Wheaton arose and stated that he
would present a copy of the final report of
the Finance Committee, which would give a
dearer insight into the actual fiaancial con
dition of the cityih&u anything that be coaid
say, aud he would respectfully submit it lor
consideration.
The Chair desired to know if it was the
wish of the meeting to have this report
read.
Mr. Geo. W. Lamar stated that as copies
of this report were prettv generally distrib
uted among those present it would be use
less to cousnrnetime in the reading thereof,
aod hence he would move that the reading
ot the report be dispensed with.
The motion was s* conded and adopted.
Mr. James Hnuter here m >ved that the
Mi/vor of the city be requested to state if
the* city authorities had any proposition to
submit for the consideration of tbe bond
holders.
Mayor Wheaton replied that the authori
ties hud hoped that ihe meeting would take
some action upon the report of the Finance
Committee, or that a committee would be
appointed to consider its features and make
such suggestions as in iheir judgment
seemed best to re ieve the city of the diffi
culties which now embarrassed her. The
authorities, after consultation, did not con
sider it advisable to make any definite pro
position, preferring to leave that matter
entirely with the creditors, and promi-ing
to render any cooperation possible in the
solution of affairs. Hu therefore had noth
ing to t*ay upon the subject.
i'he Chairman hero announced that he had
before him a series of resolutions submitted
by Mr. U. Bluu, which wouidbe read for the
information of the meeting.
The Secretary thou read the following:
Jlesotved, That the following basis of
setih mcLit be offered the citv of Savannah
by the creditors (bondholders):
First basis—The redemption of the out
standing seven per cent, bonds by tbo pay
ment in lieu thereof of a percent.
bond at the rate of cents on the dol
lar.
Second basis—Contracts on face of bonds
that the ciiy of Savannah shall issue no
bonds and borrow no money for any purpose
whatsoever.
Third basis—Division of taxation: First.
Taxation to meet current expenses.
Second. Taxation to pay iuterest and creato
a sinking tar.d.
dissolved, That a committee of teu bond
holders be appointed by the Chair who shall
tiii blanks a ml revort to an adjourned meet-
ting, to be held at 4 o’clock p. m. this day.
Mr. Rewsbart moved that the word ‘‘ton”
in the number of the committee bo stricken
out and five be substituted. This was
seconded.
Mr. JL’homas moved that the Chairman of
this meeting be the Chairmau of the com
mittee.
The Chair begged to decline the honor,
stating that he would be compelled to leave
tbe city in the evening and was reluctant to
assume ihe duties, but he would cheerfully
meet with the committee and give his views.
Mr. Lamar taired tu know if the mover
of the resolutions had any objections to
other matters being considered besides
th< so specified.
Mr. Bluu stated he had not.
Mr. W. W. Chisholm was opposed to
making the committee of five. He thought
it best that there should be as full a repre
sentation as possible.
Mr. Gat many coincided in these views,
and thought tne committee should be in
creased instead of diminished.
Mr. Thomas considered a committee of
five hotter. The smaller the committee, the
more efficiently they could work. This com
mittee could bo composed of representatives
frem New York, Charleston, Augusta and
Savannah, aud being small in number, could
progress more rapidly with the work im
posed upon them.
Dr. J. J- Waring thought all these pro
ceedings premature, and be hoped the mover
of ihe resolutions would consent to a tem
porary withdrawal or suspension. The first
ac'iou should be to ascertain wha‘ amount
of tbe city’s indebtedness was represented.
He would move that a committee of three
be appointed to make a registration of the
obligations of tbe ciiy of Savannah here
represented.
Mr. Blue stated that ho had no objection
to ibis proceeding. He had only introduced
the resolutions with the object of bringing
before the meeting soma business.
Dr. Waring said if he yoted at all he
would vote for these resolutions, bat ho
thought the best mode would be first to
learn the number of bondholders present.
Mr. Wm. Swoll here arose and suggested
that no man be appointed on tbe committee
who had Dot paid liiB taxes in fu 1.
Mayor Wheaton approved of Dr. Waring’a
resolution, aud thought a registration of
the bonds should be procured.
The resolutions were then laid ever tem
porarily.
Messrs. A. S. Hartridge and James Hunter
were, on motion, appointed tellers, aud pro
ceeded at once wi h the registration.
After the lapse of some ten minutes they
reported that there were $387,700 bonds
represented.
Mr. Thomas moved that before the reso
lutions wore again put to the meeting the
small representation of the ci’y's indebted
ness should be considered. Would such a
meeting be competent to decide the impor
tant questions which would be submitted?
The representation present was less than
one-tenth the indebtedness of the city.
The Chair here stated that, the meeting
was ready to hear any further views on the
subject.
Dr. Waring remarked that he had bad
no time to confer with his col
leagues, but for himself, as one of
thirteen representing tt e city of Savannah,
he would be sorry to see the matter go any
further under the present circumstances.
That whilst he wou d be reluctau' to have
this meeting, representing so small an
amount of the city’s indebtedness, take
anv decisive action in regard to a settle
ment, he would be pleased to hear the views
of auy bondholders who were present rep
resenting the claims of other cities.
Mr. Hardee here moved to adjJurn.
Mayor Wheaton hoped the motion would
be withdrawn. This meetmg was an im
portant one, aud had been called for the
purpose of conference with the bondholders
in reference to the serious financial affairs
of the city, and he would exceedingly regret
if it adjourned before son;© expression
had been obtained from geutlemeii present
from other placc-s.
Mr. Qafhaany also opposed the motion to
adjourn,* and Mr. Hardee withdrew it.
Mr. James Hunter here suggested that
the Chair call upon a y gentlemen from
Charleston, Augusta, Macjn or New Yoik,
or anv representing those claims who were
in attendance, to give their views to the
meeting.
The Chair male this request, extending
an earned invitation for the expression of
opinion, but no one responded.
Mr. Thomas here renewed the motion to
^ll^Chaa. Gasman opposed the motion
unless «ume time was specified. There were
only a few shares represented, and he
thought better attendance could be ob
tained if the meeting could be adjourned
for a few days.
Mt. Thomas stated that as he understood
the matter, the adjournment would uot prt-
vent the calling of another meeting at any
time deemed pracricanle.
Mr. Hunter stated that he understood a
delegation would be oveT from Charleston
during the afternoon, aud moved that the
meetkig adjourn until five o’clock.
Mr. Gasman remarked that he would ac
cept the amendment and the situation being
serene, the motion was put and carried, and
the meeting declared adjourned until five
o’clock.
AFTERNOON SESSION.
At tt o’clock the bondholders again met.
The attendance being largely increased.
The Chair called the meeting to order and
directed attention to the resolutions of Mr.
Biun, which were again read.
A registration being taken, it was found
♦hat a delegation of five gentlemen to-wit:
Mtasrs G. W. William", Henry Buist, C.
A Sim, A. B. Rose and J. T. Welsman,
of Charleston, were present, representing
$800 000. Mr. Milo 8. Freeman, of Macon,
representing $20,000, and Mr. Walton, oi
Augusta, $60,000. making, with the resident
bondholders, a total repress ntatien of $1,-
387,700.
Mr. Henry Buist, of Charleston, de-ired
to know if any persons were present, not of
Savannah, holders of bauds or represent
ing bonds, when the above information was
famished.
Mr. George W. Williams, of Charleston,
arose, aud after reading the action of the
meeting of the bondholders in Charleston
(a fall account of which we published
yesterday morning;, saiu:
I beg leave to further state that the
Charleston bondholders of yonr city have
carefully € xamined the report of the Finance
Committee o! your city, and are pleased to
find your finances and resonrees in a better
condition than they had hoped, and far bet
ter than many other cities of the booth.
The war began and, I may say, ended in
Charleston. Oae-third of enr city was de
stroyed by fire. Fifteen millions of bank
ing capital was swept out of existence, our
railroads torn up, and we were left in an
impoverished condition, with a debt of five
and a half million dollars. Our people have
cot only paid the interest, but have reduced
the debt nearly one million of dollars. In
add’tion to a ci’y tax of two to two and a
half per cent., we have paid a State tax of
two per cent, on ati excessive valuation of
property. We feel assured if oar friends of
the great metropolis of Ge^r^ia will go to
work in earnest they can easily meet the in
terest on their eotire bonded debt. Their
Charleston neighbors agree in a generous
spirit to reduce the rate of iuterest to six
per cent., and are willing to extend the
time of paymeuts on bonds and coupons
which mature at an early day and which
otherwise would be exceedingly embarrass
ing to your city.
The following is the resolution adopted by
the Charleston bondholders :
Resolved, That the holders of bonds of
the city of Savannah reeideut in Charleston
suggest the acceptance, in satisfaction of
the seven per cent, bonds and past due cou
pons held by them, of new six per cent, cou
pon bonds of the said city of bavanuah, pro
vided that the issue of said new bonds be
authorized by an act of the General Assem
bly of ttie State of Georgia, and the pio-
vision shall be made in the s^id act that the
said bonds and the coupons thereto attached
tliall after their maturity be receivable for
all dues to tbe said city of Savauuah, and
shall be exempt from taxation by the said
city of Favaunah, and that the act be em
bodied in the bonds; and provided fhrther
that there shall be no increase of the funded
debt of the said city of Savannah uutil the
said six (6) per ccut. bonds to be issued,
and the coupons thereof, shall have been
paid in full, and that the rentals of the city
property shall be applied t > the reduction of
the principal of the said bonds.
Geo. Henry R. Jackson moved that Mr.
Blun’s resoludoi s be adoDted.
Mr. John L. Hardee offered a substitute
as follows:
Whereas, The city of Savannah, as
shown by the report of her Finance Com
mittee, is serionely embarrassed, and auy
further delay in the settlement of her obli
gations will tend to increase rather than
mitigate her misfortunes; and whereas it
is absolutely necessary that some satisfac
tory arrangement should at once be made
between hers- If and her creditors.
Resolved, That a committee of seven
boudnoiders be aopointed by the Chairman
ot tnis meeting to examine into the fiaan
cial condition of the city, with power to call
for looks and papers, anJ, after mature
deliberation, to recommend to all holders of
bonds of the city of Savannah some effec
tual, sale and wise pi&u of adjustment, and
report at a definitive conference to bo held
in November nex T .
Mr. J. C. Duggau,in some earnest remarks
advocatlugits passage, offered the following:
Resolved, That for the outstaudiug debts,
including bonds, etc., of the city of Savau-
nab, with interest and coupons past due on
the same, said city of 8avaonah will issue
new six per cent, coupou bonds for ninety
per cant, of the principal of said debts, pro
vidin'/ that the issue of said new bonds bo
au>i: i:zed by an act of the General Assem
bly of tne State of Georgia, and the provis
ions shall be ma le in the said act that the
mid bonds and the coupons thereto aiu h-
td, shall, after their maturity, be receivable
tor ali dues to the said city ot Savannah, and
eliall be exempt from taxation by tbe said
ci y of Savannah, and that the act shall be
embodied m the bonds, time of maturity for
af r cr consideration.
Some little spouting oa the subject of par
liamentary usage ensued, Mr. Duggan claim
ing that Lis resolution had precedence.
Mr. Williams moved that Mr. Duggan’s
resolution, together with the resolutions
from Charleston and other matter, be re-
feir« d to a committee of seven, authorized
by Mr. Hardee’s resolution.
Mr. Thomas arose to a point of or
der, when Mr. Buist, of Charleston,
arose and said that it mattered little
whether the proceedings wer9 exactly
pariiamentaxy or not. If they began to
consider technical Doints, they would soon
be enveloped in a labyrinth. His under
standing was that this was a joufereoce of
bondholders of the city of Savauuah. A
conference had been asked by the ciiy
aud had beeu accepted by a delegatim
from Charleston, aud they were here.
Ho would say that his colleagues re
presented the in elligence and capital of
Charleston, and were here to assist in the
settlement of t.ds matter. Believing long
discussion useless he would deferentially
move that all those propositions be referred
to a committee of seven or ten.
Dr. L. N. Falligant called attention to the
clause iu the resolutions adopted by the
Charleston bondholders iu reference to the
nou-taxation of bouds. This was au im
portant matter aud consideration should be
given to it. No oue would think ot taxing
boi ds held in Charleston or ifew York or
els. where, but they should be taxed here,
and it was this mistaken notion which had
dete&ted the tax ordinance the past three
years.
Discussion here ceased, and the Chair an
nounced the committee under Mr. Hardee’s
resolution, which included Dr. Falligant,
C >l. George Owens and Mr. James H. John
ston.
Colonel Owens declined, and an inquiry as
to whether Dr. Falligant was a bondholder
resulted in the information that he was not,
and his name was dropped. Mr. Johustou
was relieved at the request of the Mayor,
who stated that on behalf of th«- Council he
would be glad if the Mayor aud Aldermen
be relieved from serving on the com
mittee. They would be pleased to appear
before the committee and give such infor
mation as was desired, but preferred not to
be of the committ* o.
The Chair complied with these requests
and then announced the following as the
committee : Henry Blun, Savannah; Geo.
W. Williams, Henry Buist, C. A. Chisolm,
A. B. Rose, J. T. Welsman, Charleston; Juo.
L. Hardee, Henry Hull, Henry R. Jackson,
Juo. McMahon, Savannah.
The following resolution was off red by
Mr. James Hunter, and was also referred to
the committee ;
Resolved, That this meeting request
the Mayor and Aldermen of the ciiy of Sa
vannah* to propose to the bondholders ths
following compromise, viz: A new 30-year
non-taxable bond at five per cent, interest be
issued for all the past due bouds and May
or’s notes, said bonds to he authorized by an
act of the Legislature, to bo non-taxable,
and coupons receivable in payment for taxes;
a certain amount to be appropriated out or
the general taxes for iuterest and for a sink
ing fuud, said sinking fund to be placed in
th« hands of couimihsiouers.
The committee were handed the various
resolutions and prop eitious, aud retired to
the Mayor’s office for consultation, the
Mayor and Board of Aldermen accompanying
(hem.
Fending their absence the meeting was in
an informal way favored with some practical
views from Mr. Chas Gasman, who is earn
est! devoted to the interests of the city.
After an absence ol abont three-quarters
of au hour, the committee retuiued and
submitted through Mr. Qeorge W. Williams,
wh \ ou motion of Mr. Henry Bluu, had
beeu elected Chairmau of the committee,
tie following report:
Resolved, That a special committee of
seven bondholders be appointed by the
ChiirmaD, who shall be charged with the
examination of the bonded indebtedness of
the city of Savauuab, and shall confer with
the City Council of Savannah, with a view
of ascertaining whether any arrangement
can be arrived at as to the said indebted
ness, and that they report at such time aa
thev may deem advisable to a general meet-
ing'of the said bondholders, to be held in
the city of Savannah.
On motion of Mr. Gasman the report was
unanimously adopted.
Mr. Buist stated that the Chair could ap
point a committee at bis leisure.
Mr. Thomas thought that the word credi
tors sbonld he substitute^ in the report for
bondholders.
Mr. Buist replied that this was a meeting
of the bondholders, iu the interest of bond
holders, and had nothing to do with local
creditor}.
The adoption of the report was announced,
whereupon a motion to adjourn was made
and carried.
It is the imp r e«?ion that the next confer
ence will not be oalled until about the first
of November, owing to the absence of so
many citizens during the summer, and the
reluctance of those abroad to ome South in
the warm season. Thus matters will re
main ucc ! aeged during that period.
WHAT AUGUSTA BONDHOLDERS
THINK.
“Savannah Able to Pay Her Debt*.”
In this connection we give as interesting
the account of the proceedings in Angnsta
on Tuesday, of which telegraphic mention
was made yesterday :
Pursuant to call, a meeting of Augusta
holders of Savaunah bonds was held at the
Exchange Tuesday at eleven o’clock.
Ou motion of Mr. P. L. Cohen, Mr. D. R.
Wright was called to tbe chair, and J. L.
Maxwell requested to act as Secretary.
The Chairman said the meeting was ready
for business. Tbe object was so well known
that it was useless to state it.
Mr. Hickman said he was anxious to have
this meeting to-day, in order to have an
expression of opinion in regard to Savannah
bends. He did not propose to send dele
gates to Savannah. He thought Savannah
was as abie to pay her debts as any other
city in the State. He had understood that
her property was snificient to pay one-half
of her indebtedness. A number of promi
nent citizens had refased to pay taxes on
the ground of technicalities. The amount
thus withheld reached $250,000, sufficient,
he supposed, to pay all interest coupons
due. He sympathised with Savannah for
her misfortunes of la»t year, but she bad
received aid from all quarters, and the
Legislature bad taken off one-half of her
State and coanty taxes, abont $35,000. For
one, he was not disposed to compromise
unless it was to take bonds for the interest
coupons dae. He believed that an expres
sion of views by this meeting, published in
the Chronicle attd Constitutionalist, would
have great weight.
Mr. P. L. Cohen said this meeting repre
sented nearly $300,000 of bonds, fully one-
half of which had been bought at full
prices, from 85 to 100. This was a very im
portant meeting, representing three times
tbe amount of the New York meeting.
Mr. Cosk- ry sail it appeared fxom Savan
nah’s own statement tbit she had $2,900,000
of assets, more than two-thirds of her in
debtedness, and he was opposed to any com
promise, unless it was to fund the interest
for two or three years.
Col. T. G. Barrett said he didn’t think
there were any compromise men in this
meeting. ^ Ail the cities and towns in Geor
gia sremea to be going in for what he called
stealing. Ti-ey should be made to pay their
debts.
Mr. Hickman said Savannah’s tax was
only one and a half per cent. This was
smaller than many other cities. He saw no
reason why Savannah should want to com
promise her debt simply because she had
hal the yellow fever. Savannah had been
prospt-rous since the war, Charleston had
been under the iron heel for ten long years,
and her tax was at least one per cent, greater
tbau Savannah, and yet ehe had intimated
nothing abont compromise.
Mr. W. E. Jackson saw no reason why Sa-
vancah should not meet her indebtedness
promptly, if she was willing to be taxed to
pay her debtg, as all honest people were.
Two per cent, tax would pay her debt, and
that was not such a high tax.
Mr. Curry thought it would be well to
frame some resolution denouncing Savan
nah’s proposition.
Mr. J. C. Fargo thought it would be time
enough to respond wh^u Savannah had ta
ken action at the meeting on the 6th. It
woald be wrong to advance any proposition
new looking to their probable refusal to pay
their debts.
.Mr. P. L. Cohen said this meeting was
called at the instance of several bondhold
ers in order to have expression of the views
of the bondholders. Savannah had really
made a proposition to compromise. He be
lieved that an expression of views here
would have great weight in Savannah at the
meeting on the 6tb. Mr. Wheaton, Mayor
of Savannah, who was a very elegant gen
tleman, had stated to him that while the
Savannah Finance Committee had not
agreed upon a proposition, their views were
as follow?: Not to repudiate the bonded
debt, but to scale the interest on the follow
ing basis: 3 p« r cent, for five years, 4 per
oeixt. for five years, 5 per cent, for five
years, and 6 per cent, for fifteen years.
Colonel Barrett said he was willing to
fund his coupons for twenty years or thirty
years, if they wanted it, but he was opposed
in toto to scaling the interest.
Mr. Jackson said the peoplo of Savannah
ought to be willing to stand a tax of two per
cent, to pay their honest debts.
Mr. Cohen moved that a committee of
three be appointed to draft suitable reso
lutions for Action by this ni'-eting, aud that
th .t committee consist of Mr. W. E. Jack-
son, Mr. H. H. Hickman and Mr. T. W.
Cookery. Adopted.
Tne committee reported the following
ret-olation, which was nuanimously adopted :
Resolved, That as the sense ol this meet
ing, representing near $300,000 of the bonds
of the city of Savannah, that wo should con
sider it unwise for Savannah to attempt to
repudiate in part her indebtedness, that we
ca iuot see the necessity for such a course if
th 1 re be a willingne^ to preserve the credit
of the city, and to accomplish so desirable
an object would suggest a tax of two per
cen'. iuste^d of one and a half ; that the
am unt received annually for ground rent,
supposed to bo about $30,000, be specially
appropriated for a siuking fund; that bond
holders be requested to fund the first three
coupons in bouds at seven per cent., paya
ble say in ten or fifteen years. Many of the
bonds represented at this meeting are held
by persons as trustees, guardians, etc , be
ing authorized so to do by the laws of the
State.
Cn motion the meeting adjourned.

We have informa'ion from Abraham
Burke, living on St. Catherine’s Idand, of
the. death, on Sunday morning last, of a
colored woman named Ella McClond, who
was reputed to be one- hundred and twenty
years of age. Some of the ancient colored
people thereabouts report her an old woman
when they were children. This venerable
dame had, we are informed, fonr legal hus
bands, whom she had successively followed
to their final restiug place—previous to
which she had three brevet husbands. Du
ring her long life she had uevtr been blessed
with a child. Her death created quite a
sensation among the colored folks, some of
whom doubtless believed that she was des
tined to live forever.

I j' XTHACT from letter of Dr. Wm. T. Howard,
j of Baltimore, Professor of Diseases of Wo
men and Children,in the University of Maryland,
of Augnst 1st. 1873.
Dr. Howard compares the=e waters with those
of the celebrated Greenbrier White Snlphnr,
W< st Virginia, and adds ihe foliowring:
“Indeed, in a certain class of caasea, it is
much snper or to the latter. I allude to the abid
ing debility attendant noon the tardy convales
cence from grave acute diseases; and more espe
cially to the cachexia and sequels incident to
malarious fevers in all tUr grades and varieties,
to ceitain forms of atonic dyspepsia, and

firm what mineral waters I have seen
the greatest and most unmi-takable amount
of good accrue in the largest number of cases in
a general wav, I would unh—itatingly say the
ButtaJo bprings, in Mecklenburg county, Va.”
Extract from letter of Dr. Joel Watkins, of Char
lotte Court House, Va., of April 1st, 1677.
‘T have known the Bnffa o bprings in Meck

The water is as efficacious in as many forms of

m«Uicinal agent of which I have anv knowledge,
hat vb crowning glory is its efficacy in tbe
PECULIAR DISEASES OF F8MALE?*. In the
irregularities aud obstrnctio: s of young females,
especially when dependent upon indigestion, it
may be regarded as almost specific.”
Extract from letter of Dr. .T. H. Tucker, ot Hen
derson, N. C. t of May 23d, 1876:
* Of the special adaptation of the Buffalo Lithia
Waters to the PECULIAR DISEASES OF FE
MALES, I have no question. In Chloro-anemic
diseases, in Leucorrhm*. in some of the varieties
of Dysinenorrhcea, ami in all those functional de-
