THE IltUDWAllK TRADE. Me**r*. Palmer Bros. Messrs. Palmer Brothers, the successors to the firm of Palmer & Doppiah, (which v,as dissolved on the 1st inst., owing to the death of the lamented Mr. John H. D?p- pieb,) is composed of Mr. Samuel B. Palmer and Mr- Herbert A. Palmer, two gentlemen thoroughly versed by loug experience in the requirements of the trade, and whose reputation as clever, liberal and enterprising merchants extends throughout this entire section of the South. It i* the purpose and deter mination of the present firm to conduct the business of the late firm in the same man ner which has resulted in the universal popularity of their house. We are assured that not only will the present large trade bs retained, but that through the indomitable energy and careful attention of Messrs. Palmer Bros., it will increase, and continue to increase within the next decade and in the same ra tio as in the pas*. The very large and varied stock of hardware and agricultural imple ments which this house has on hand is not excelled by any similar establishment in the South, and purchasers will fiud this also true in regard to terms and the quality of goods. Messrs. Palmer & Bros, are also agents for the Dupont powder, Miller’s safes, Fairbanks’ scales, and Avery’s celebrated plows. Such an establishment, presided over by such experienced business men and clever gentlemen, requires no. commeudatiou. We can only suggest to those who ueed any thing in their line to cal', feeling assured that in every respect they will be well satisfied. ^S^k^bgALLan^TO BEST f£iBti<* out SUPERIOR WORK, 00 0 I** the SHORTEST TIME possible A Novel Way to Cure Sick Chicken*. A colored man living in this ciiy made ar rangements a few days since to take his wile on an excursion, and after the preparations had been completed he noticed that several very fine fowls which he had in his yard ap peared rather droopy. He remarked to his wife that the chickens looked sick and he thought it would be a good idea to put them In the ice box until their return. She coin cided in this luminous idea, and the fowls were accordingly caught and placed in the box. The couple then took their departure and on their return from the excursion, late in the evening, the box was opened and the chickens found cold and stiff. They had been effectually cured of their droopiuess. The Picnic at llie .Schuetzen Park. The Literary and Benevolent Society of St. Vincent do Paul had their fourth annual picnic at the Schuetzen Park yesterday. The day was beautiful and the attendance of pleasure seekers at this delightful resort verv large. The time was most pleasantly spent in dancing and other amusements, and many wore loth to return when the shades of night admonished them that all picnics must have an end. The affair was for the benefit of their library, and we un derstand quite a goodly sum was realized. Dixie* oil lo Macon.

Annual Parade and In«peetion—The ( on- te*ta—Waver No. 2 Viatorlou*. The second aunual parade and inspection of the Savannah Fire Department took place yesterday afternoon and served to create considerable hveiinecs on the streets. As pertinent we here introduce some verses written by Matt. O’B., and dedicated to the Augusta Fire Department in 1873, under the head of WHY x LIKE THE FIREMEN. Why am I fond of the firemen ? “Those lellows who run to a fire?” Yes 1 I’ll tell you in half a minute— That i9 if so you desire. Well, sir, when I was a youngster, “Pop” was a good deal on his •-style” And—anything—?hort of a Nabob Ueed to k ne o’ raise his rile. He used to think that firemen Were “very good men in their way,” But they wasn’t “aristocratic,” (That was the old man’s lay ) Well, one night—away in the winter, We’d a party in honor of Grace. W’ho was **swect sixteen”—and my Pister— Oh ! she’d the loveliest kind of a face. Well all the “good nights” had been given. And “Pop” had loug gone to retire, When, all of a sudden I started ! borne one was yelling cut Fire! The house was on fire! all over l f It had started just under the stairs, And I’d give myself up for lo»t, sir. When crash ! went the windows by pairs I Twas the firemen ! with ladders and axes They’d cut tbeir w*y thro’ with a bound; And, catching each one of us children, Landed us safe on the ground. Ihen father was saved—but the cheers W ere slopped by a sweet, pale face, That 1 oked out of an upper window, And cried out, “On save me! ’—’twas Grace ! I re the echo was lost there were men Between her and the fire’s red glare. And the voidO of the crowd seem hushed As if each one were whisp’ring a prayer. Grace was saved, sir ; but a moment after Came a cry—too late lor the braves— The w ill fell—and—will, the old man, sir, 1*-it a monument over their graves. That's why /dike the firemen ; “Those fellow* that run to fires.” And 1 think you’d find worse men, sir. Under some of your big church spires. At half past three o’clock the several com panies assembled in front of Firemau’6 Hall, on South Broad street, where the liue was formed under direction of Chief Blair and Assistant Chief Butler in the following order: Werner Hook and Ladder Company. Savannah Guards Band. Washington Steam Fire Engine Company No. 1. Waver Steam Fire Engine Company No. 2. Bartow Steam Fire Engine Company Ho. 3. The several steamers were very hand somely burnished, and were decorated with wreaths. The truck was also iu fine order, and over the ton ladder was suspended very beautiful wreaths. The appearance of tbe entire apparatus was exceedingly creditable to tbe department and gratifying to the citi zens, who take great pride and interest in this important branch of the public service. About a quarter to lour the procession movd off down South Broad to East Broad, to Bay, to the Exchange, where the column was halted and the men drawn up in line, iu rear of their apparatus, facing south. The Mayor and entire Board of Aldermen were present when the department reached the ground, and the inspection at once to< k place. Under escort of the Chief and Assist ant Chief and first officers, the city officials made a tour of the entire line and thorough ly inspected the apparatus. They expressed themselves greatly pleased with the appear ance of everything, and specially noticed the full turn out of the members of the various companies aud their excellent bearing. We omitted to mention that in the formation of the procession the YOUNG BARTOW’S fell into line behind their senior, Bartow No. 3, and were also subject to inspection. This company made their first appearance last June, and since then Lave increased in effi ciency. The members are youths from ten to fifteen years of age, the roster of the company being as follows : President—Reuben Butler. First Foreman—Lee Butler. Secretary—-J. Dixon. First Pipeman—J. McConnell. Second Pipeman—Walter Mallory. G. Carter, G. Witluugton, Holly Estiii, Rvibert Guerard, V. Ybanes, G. H. Richardson, H. Herb, W. Howard, S. Haym. The young company had out tbeir hose reel, which was very elaborately decorated with flowers and presented an attractive appear- auce, a credit to the ladies who executed the designs. The boys seemed proud of their jumper and bore themselves well. Their uniform—red shirts, black pants and fireman’s caps—was becoming, and “on the ropes” they looked evoiy inch the fireman. The Mutual Protection Hose Company, known as an auxiliary company, aud under the direction of the Department, had out their apparatus, which had been drawn to the Exchange for inspection, and not to be iu the parade. This company is located in the extreme western portion of the city and is a great protection to that vi cinity, having on many occasions rendered great and efficient service. The Cleburne Hose Company, also an auxiliary, sta tioned in the eastern portion of the city, were not out,".the cause of which was not definitely stated. Bay street, during the inspection, was, iu the vicinity ot the Exchange, literally packed with spectators, and the custom house steps, as usual ou such occasions, pre sented a brilliant picture. Alter the inspection the column was re formed, and moved off up Bay street to West Broad, to South Broad, to Drayton, to Congress, to Bull, to Bryan, to Drayton, where a halt was called, aud the companies were placed in readiness for THE CONTEaT, the regulations of which were as follows : Engine aDd reel to start from corner Con gress and Drayton streets, run up Dravton to South Broad, take plug fronting Fire man’s Hall, unreel two huudred feet of hose and play water one hundred feet by steam. The following times to be taken : First, when water is played through the pipe ; second, when the engine commences to work by steam ; third, when a stream is played to the line marked out as one hundred feet. Each compauy to use a one-inch nozzle. No engine to light fire until the signal i£ given for her to start on tbe run. Tbe truck to start from same point, run to Fireman’s Hall, place ladder on building, and a mau to ascend the ladder. Cbief Blair proceeded to Fireman’s Hall, where he was joined by the Mayor aud Aldermen, and the judges who had been requested to officiate, to-wit: Capt. F. M. Hull, Mr. C. M. Cunningham and Dr. J. T. McFarland. The crowd in front of the hall was im mense, and extended from Abercorn to Dray ton street, there being considerable interest manifested in the result of the contest. After the arrangements had been completed tbe alarm was sounded from the gong iu the Bartow’s engine room and tho Exchange bell was struck. Almost immediately the cry went up “ she is coming,” and in a few seconds the Werner Hook and Ladder Truck swung into South Broad street from Drayton, tho horses being iu fuli galiop. Sweeping rapidly past the Kail aDd around Abercorn Btreet, the truck homes were reined up by the skillful driver, Tom O’Neal, and m the twinkling of an eye a ladder was off and being thrown against the build ing, a man running up at the time, and almost before it was adjusted he had reached the top and glippod on to tl.e ro >f. The performance was moat expeditious and at tested the excellent training of the company, hut the time wou d have been better had not the man who ascended the ladder been a little too rapid in hii movements, his weight on tbe ladder and the fact that it was planted ou the bricks, and hence slid slightly, occasioning some delay in hoisting. As it was, the re sult was moat satisfactory, the company having come from Drayton and Congress street*, a distance of four hundred and fifty yards, put up a ladder, and had a man on the roof in the short time of 2:3£. One of the horses in coming np Drayton street threw a shoe, which, of course, somewhat affected tbe speed. After a lapse of about five minutes, the alarm was sounded for steamer so. 1, Wash ington, and was responded to quickly, con nection being made with the plug, water ob tained, steam up and stream thrown one hundred feet in 6:264. The Waver No. 2 followed, and being well handled had water almost ta soon as the connection was made with the plug, and ac complished the feat required, throwing a stream one hundred feet in 5:22. This was considered remarkably good time, and tbe feat was greeted with loud cheers by the enthusiastic crowd. The Bartow No. 3»responded with great promptness to the alarm, and effected con nection moat expeditiously and had water through tbe pipe in a few seconds. It was the impression at the moment that she would win, as a vigorous stream reaching nearly to tho distance flag, gave token that she had np steam. Suddenly, however, the stream dropped, and before it was recovered the .ictory had been lost by one second, the time made being 5:23. We present below tho OFFICIAL REPORT of the judges, and give in connection there with the record of the contest last year, from which it will be seen that the Werners and all the steamers made better time yes terday tfcai: on that occasion. The time yesterday as made out ty the judges is as follows: WATER THROUGH PIPE. Washington Engine No. 1—Alarm sounded at 5:23 ; water through pipe at 5:25:17 ; time made, 2:17. _ , , .

A day or two siuce, a couple of citizens of Effingham county came to Savannah to see the sights. Whilst here they got on a little breeze, and one of them imbibed too freely. His companion being in the humor to play a practical joke, took advantage of the oppor- .unity whilst his friend was dream ing the hours away. He secured a large dry goods box, and, placing his sleeping friend therein, covered it, taking the precaution to make holes for ventilation. He then engaged a wagon and had the box hauled out about two miles on the shell road, and left by the roadside. About daybreak the occupant awoke and was rather bewildered at finding himself iu such quarters and in a locality that was strange to him, as he discovered on raising the top of the box. As soon as he could collect his senses, he emerged from his cramped quar ters, and started to walk in the direc tion of the city, fortunately overtaking a cart on tho way. Obtaining a seat he w’as brought to town* and yesterday was hunt ing around for his companion, to tell him of his wonderful adventure. The practical joker meanwhile had concocted a yarn to suit the occasion, but somehow the true :acts leaked out. The parties left for home fully satisfied, as no serious results had come from the joke.

Bayard Taylor says: “It is a withering commentary upon our modern costume that do sculpior has dared, or ever will dare, to model a statue wearing a stovepipe hat.” “Bc-n Hill,” the fast trotter and unequaled family horse owned reeeutly by Judge Hop- kius, is now the property of Mr. Gucken- heiraer, of Sava mah.—IhomasviUe Enter prise. ^ The first turtle nest discovered this sea son on Tybee was found by Major N.

A sleeve- button has been invented the top of which unscrews and permits the name and address of tho owner to be placed inside. Upon the button is stamped, “Where I live; see in side.” It is recommended as especially valuable in the recognition of lost children. An exchange says a gentleman who “knows all about it,” and who has tried the experiment with entire success, recom mends the following remedy for bunio.js andcr.rns, from which so many suffer dai.y: Obtain at the druggists five or six cents worth of saltpeter; put into a bottle, with sufficient olive oil to nearly dissolve it; shake up well, aud rub the inflamed parts nights and mornings, and more frequently if painful.

A Medicine lor Voyagera Voyagers by sea or land cannot provide them selves with a more reliable protective against the influences of an unwholesome climate, the fetid atmosphere of crowded ships, the hurtful action of bad diet or unwholesome water, than Hostet- ter’s Stomach Bitter?, the leading iavigo'ant, alterative and preventive of America. The influ ences of exposure are nullified, and the system built up and fortified against disease by its use. It is a sure bulwark against the insidious attacks of malarial fever and overcomes with certainty disorders if the liver, stomach and bowels. Mariners, tourists, emigrants and persons en gaged in unhealthful or overarduous pursuits, pronounce it their most reliable medicinal re source, and among ail classes of society it enjoys unbounded popularity. my2S-M,W&F&wtjell Dr. Schenrk’* Pulmonic Syrup, Sea Weed Tonic and .Vlaudrnke Pill*. These medicines have undoubtedly pertormed more cures of consumption than any other remedy known to the American public. They are compounded of vegetable ingredients and coutain nothing which can be injarioas to tbe human constitution. Other remedies advertised as cure3 for consumption, probably contain opi um, which is a somewhat dangerous drug in all ca*es, and if taken freely by consumptive pa tients, it must do great injury; for its tendency is to confine the morbid matter in the system, which, of course, must make a cure impossible. Scnenck’s Pulmonic Syrup is warranted not to contain a particle of opium; it is composed of powerful but harmless herbs which act on the lungs, liver, stomach and blood, and thus correct all morbid secreiions and expel all the diseased matter lrom the body. These are the only means by which consumption can be cured, and as 8chenck’s Pulmonic Syrup, Sea Weed Tonic and M:indmke Pills are the only medicines which operate in this way, it is obvious they are the only genuine euro for pulmonary consumption. Each bottle of this invaluable medicine is accom panied by lull directions. Dr. Schenck is pro fessionally at his principal office, corner Sixth and Arch streets, Philadelphia, every Monday, where all letteis for advice must be addressed. jel-F,M,W,lm Everybody who intends leaving the city should call at Max Krouss’ aud buy one of his excellent trunks.
