On Monday evening next the beautiful and accomplished young actress, MieS Gene vieve Rogers, supported by a fine company, will make her first appearance at Masonic Temple in a dramatization of Whittier’s popular poem, entitled “Maud Muller.” The following from the New Orleans Picayune will show the favorable impression which Miss Rogers created in that intelligent com munity : “The engagement of Miss Rogers is drawing to its termination, and we sincerely say to those of our citizens who permit her to depart without seeing her will loge a rare dramatic treat. No such young actress —we might say, even, that no such mag netic actress—has been seen upon the New Orleans boards in many a long day. She is in all respects a most satisfying artiste. Her achievements arc not spasmodic out bursts which surprise, but they are the sus tained and noble work of an actress who is too conscientious to trifle and too ambitious to degrade her art-work to the level of mere stage handicraft. Taking her characteriza tion of “Maud Muller” as tho criterion of judgment there are none, we presume, of those who have seen her who will doubt that in all the attributes of dramatic crea tion she is native and to the manner born.” Sale of seats commences Friday, October 12tb, at Hamilton’s jewoliy store, without extra charge. CIoh? of Mr. f lurking' jEnguKCiiient. Metamora was given last night at the Theitre with Mr. D. H. Harkins as the Last of the Wampanoags. This was Forrest’s favorite ranting play when he started out on a starring tour in the days of his prime. Mr. Harkins makes the most of his role, and thoroughly arouses the audience by bis bursts of sublime invective. Few actors on the stage possess the necessary physical development to personate Metamora, and few still are endowed with tho lung power to give the hues with the requisite force. He rendered the role with remarkable power, and in some of the scenes fie w as terrific. Mis support on this occasion was only toler able, and there were some incidents which marred the effect of the performance and occasioned laughter. Mr. Harkins himself is a capital actor, and we regret that his brief engagement in our city has not been more profitable. Should be visit ns next st ason we can assure him of a warm recep tion. Anniversary Ball—I. O. O. F. A meeting of Golden Rule Lodge N*. 12, I. O, O. F., was held last evening, when, among other matters, the report of the committee appointed at a previous meeting to consider and suggest a mode of cele brating tho anniversary of the Lodge on the 10th of November next was considered. The committee suggested two plans—one to have an address in the lodge room, followed by a collation in the ante-room, the other to have a ball and sapper. The latter proposition was adopted, and on motion the Chair was authorized to ap point a new committee to perfect the ar rangements, and to name the evening upon which the ball should take place, the anni versary falling upon Saturday, which would be an unsuitable time for the ball. The Chair appointed the following committee. Past Grand E. 8. Zittrouer, Treasurer R. E. Mimms, Bro. B. H. Richardson, Bro. E. W. Cubbedge, and Bro. F. H. Butler. Death of an Old Citizen. Mr. John Barnard Spann, an old and well known citizen, died suddenly last night at eight o’clock, from apoplexy, superinduced by old age. The deceased was born in Brickinau, Germany, January J.2,1793, and came to Georgia in 1794, and was in his 85th year. For fifty years he was the janitor of the building successively occupied by tho old United States Bank and the Marine Bank, his official services ending with the closing of the latter institution a few years since. Mr. Spann was a man of unimpeachable character, and leaves a good name as a heritage to a largo number of descendants. His aged wife, a lady once well known in this city, preceded him to the grjjyp ten years ago. Appointment of q. Committee of Bond holder*. The Augusta Chronicle and Seniinel of yesterday learns that the Hod. Wm. A. Walton, of this city, Chairman of the meetmg of the bondholders of the city of Savannah, held in that pity on Judo 7th, has appointed the following oomraittee to confer with the Mayor and City Council of Savannah and endeavor to make arrange ments for tho payment ot the past due and maturing interesU From Savannah—Hon. John M. Guerard and Henry Huli. From Augusta—W. E. Jackson. From Charleston—G. W. Williams and Hon. Henry Buist. From New York—John B. Manning and William Birnie. How is Yonr Furniture ? Those who are keeping house and are looking for a few additional pieces, or a set or two to fix up thei^ parlors, dining rooms, or bed rooms, or those who are about start ing out in life and want something nice and cheap, and at the same time ornamental and useful, in the furniture line, should inspect the stock of furniture at 165 Broughton street (one door west of Barnard), just opened by Mr. D. G. Allen. At this store they find just the things wanted t > make their houses comfortab'e, and at such prices that will make it their duty to buy at this time. Freights All Right. The following is a copy of a telegram re ceived by Colonel Haines, Superintendent of the Atlantic and Gulf Railroad, from Captain Holmes, General Superintendent of the Florida Central Railroad : “I have made arrangements to have freights, express and mtils delivered to Florida Railroad promptly.” A Bright Flashing Meteor. Last evening about dusk the western horizon wa3 illumined by the passage of a bright meteor, which was distinctly seen for several seconds by many persons. It was very large and quite broad, and, passing from the soulhwest, was seen to fall or dis appear in a northeasterly direction. Those who have or expect to have children, or the care of them, should call at O. But ler’s Drug Store and get a circalar of Tee- thina (Teething Powders). It may be the means of saving their child’s life. HbMIhHhh “GONE WHERE the WOODBINE TW1NETH.” Regular MonthlT Medio,. Sudden Departure of R. D’Oraay flirden. A large crowd of expectant creditors waited patiently last night at the Theatre for the “Manager of the Confederation of Stars,” and many were the surmises con cerning his absence on such an occasion, when the light of his countenance was so earnestly desired. After waiting for some time several of them proceeded in search of the absent one, some going to the hotel, others to places which he had been known to frequent dar ing his brief sojourn amongst us, but the genial D’Oraay was non est inventus. It appears that by some means Ogd6n succeeded in getting his trunk out of the Screven House, and,.it is supposed, left on the 7:30 train on the Central Railroad. He was at the Theatre about seven o’clock, and gave a letter to one of the attaches to give to Mr. Harkins, stating at the time that it was not necessa ry to deliver it at once, heDce this letter did not reach Mr. Harkins until after the close of the performance. We give a copy of it herewith: October 10, 1877. My Bear Harkins: They have stopped mv supplies in New York; I am on my way there now. I leave you to-night’s receipts to go on witb, and the enclosed checks to pay the bills. I am in hopes I shall join you in seven or eight days, but my presence is absolutely required in New York. I Lave every reason to know that things will be better after this. I leave you my book that you can see how I stand, financially, with the company. Let James attend to the business. You will see Lec in Macon. I simply ask that you do and think the best you can for and of me until we meet. I have lost my head and heart. I telegraphed Walker. I leave my papers on the table; let James take charge of them for me. Ogden. Ogden, in thus surreptitiously departing, threw the charge of the company upon Mr. Harkins, who had nothing to do with the combination whatever except as a star under engagement. The checks alluded to were, as may be supposed, worthless and unavailable. It seems that Ogden had not paid for the Theatre, bill posting, or liquidated other expenses, and that there were also unpaid accounts from Charleston, the latter being in the hands of the Sheriff, who seized thb baggage in the Theatre. Ogden’s flight leaves his stock company in a strange city without means, ana in a condition which must excite sympathy. From what we can learn, receipts have been taken in daring the engagement which would have been am ply sufficient to have paid the expenses of the company back to New York, and Mr. Ogden dees not state what disposition he has made of this money. Though he says in his let ter to Mr. Harkins that he has “lost his head and his heart,” and we presume he has lost his money also. OUR SUBURB?. Meeting of the Citizens to Organize for Protection. Tho frequency of robberi^| and depreda tions of various kinds in the southeastern portion of the city, and the inadequate pro tection afforded, has loDg been the subject of serious consideration amoDg the resi dents. At last they have determined upon organizing a patrol who will do duty night ly, and in this manner they hope to break up the regular and systematic thieving that has prevailed. The number of idle, worthless negroes in the vicinity is large,and many of them are notoriou* thieves. If they are hungry a hen house is raided upoDjif they want” fuol the fences are demolished and carried off. They keep pretty well ad vised of the movements of the policeman on duty in that section, whose beat is quite extensive, and thus they manage to elude arrest. Recently a meeting of tho citizens oF Frewtown and vicinity was held at the hall of tho Mutual Protection Hose Company to consider what steps should be taken. Mr. H. G. Ward was called to the chair, ami Mr. T. M. McNish appointed Secretary. After discussion a committee of five were appointed to consult with the Mayor and devise means for the better protection of tho neighborhood. The committee had an interview with the Mayor, who informed them he would com mission as special policemen, or patrolmen, any number of persona whom they might rec ommend and endorse. These special officers will have the same powers as the regular policemen, and will be authorized to arrest all suspicious characters prowling around or caught in their nefarious operations. A subsequent meeting was held a night or two since, when the committee made a ver bal report of their interview with the Mayor. After some remarks, Mr. Penton moved that the Chair appoint a committee of one frem different streets to ascertain who among the residents are willing to enroll themselves as special policemen. The following committee were appointed : Anderson street—Mr. Hunt. Henry street—Messr?. Davis and Yon Glabn. Duffy street—Messrs. Connell and Ward. New Houston street—Messrs. Harmon and Penton. This committee will report the result of their labors at a meeting to bo held at eight o’clock this evening. We understand that there will probably be a force of twenty-five secured, who will be at once organized and armed, and will en ter upon their duties nightly. When this takes place we opine the thieving and ras cality in that section will cease. Matters and Thins* Laconically Notrd. The juveniles are looking for chestnuts. Oglethorpe Light Infantry meets to-night. The thermometer will soon be taking a drop. Dr. J. J. Waring returned yesterday from Saratoga. “Moss rose ties” are the newest neck gear for the ladles. Black cock feathers for round hats are beaded heavily with cut jet. The steamship Athenian leaves direct for Liverpool on the 1st of November. The Theatre will be closed this evening but will be opened to-morrow night. “Much Ado About Nothing” was given in capital style at the matinee yesterday after noon. Mr. S. J. Fox, of the St. John’s anl Jack- ville Railroad, is registered at the Screven House. The steamship Juniata will leave for Phil adelphia thia morning at 10 o’clock instead of Saturday. The number of deaths in Charleston last week was thirty-four—fourteen whites and twenty colored. It is now asserted the fever at Port Royal has been traced to the Femandina steamers which stopped there. The Blues have withdrawn their team from the contest for the military prizo at tho Thomasville Fair. Mr. Stern and Mrs. Casey, refugees from Port Royal to Beaufort, died in that town a day or two since from yellow fever. The announcement of the dissolution of the well-known firm of Messrs. Clagborn & Cunningham appears in this morning’s paper. Oftentimes when charity throws her man tle over sinners, she soaks it in a powerful disinfectant before she can wear it her self.— Whitehall Times. The steamship George Appold, which sailed for Baltimore yesterday, carried over two thousand bales of cotton, besides a large miscellaneous freight. A little Miss at tho matinee yesterday reading on the programme that Shaks- peare’s play was to be produced, wanted to know during the performance if the old man with the white hair was Mr. Shakspeare. From Fernandina and Port Royal. The following telegram was received by Mayor Wheaton yesterday from Fernau- dina: Fernandina, October 10, 1877. Hon. J. F. Wheaion, Mayor: Dr. F. P. Welford, of Jacksonville, Fla., President of the State Medical Association, died hero to-day of yellow fever. It has seldom been my good fortune to meet a gentleman of our profession with whose noble qualities I have been so deeply im pressed. Thia community will honor his memory, Jacksonville will remember his heroic devotion to duty with pride, and bis far off Virginia friends wili mourn his loss. John D. Martin, M. D. From Port Royal tho following telegram Was received by the Mayor: Port Royal, S. C., October 10, 1877. Hon. J. F. Wheaton, Mayor: One new case to-day. Mr. R. G. Center and Ijick Kent, employes of the Port Royal Railroad,d ied to-day. B. F. Sheftall, M. D. A special to the Morning News gives the following additional information : Port Royal, S. C., October 10.—Four new cases yesterday and one to-day. Three deaths to-day. The weather still continues favorable. Many of the patients are con valescent. Two* Sisters from Augusta and one from Atlanta will arrive to-morrow. Food and provisions are still very scarce. To soothe disturbed feelings brought on by a cold, and to cure Coughs, Croup and Hoarseness, give Dr. Bull’s Cough Syrup, which may be had at drug stores. It A Chance to Save Money. It would be well for the ladies to bear in mind that 85 cents will pay for one dollar’s worth of goods at John Y. Dixon’s closing out sale. The stock must be sold at once, eo in addition to reductions in prices an ex tra discount cf fifteen cents on each dofiar is allowed on all classes of goods. Under this system customers may be certain of getting good bargains. Remember the place, corner Bull and Broughton streets, oct3-tf Board of County Commissioners met in regular monthly session yesterday morning. Present—Commissioners W. W. Paine, j ChairmaD, R. D. Walker, W. S. Lawton, C. C. Casey and M. H. Meyer. The minutes of the preceding meeting were read and approved. LICENSES GRANTED.

Robers, White Bluff road near toll gate. Nicholas Paulsen, two miles from city, between the Louisville and Sabine roads. REPORTS. The committee to whom was referred the resolutions passed by the Board of Public Road Commissioners, that they be in structed to open a communication be tween Waters road and Lamar avenue, running east through Southville, and which were recammended to County Commissioners for favorable action, report that in their opinion said contemplated road would be of little or no benefit to the peo pie of Chatham county, a private road con necting all points beiDg in existence, where upon your committee report adversely thereto. Commissioner Paine submitted the fol lowing report: In the matter of the communication of Messrs. Hoover & Garrett, askiDg that the retail license issued to Mr. Hoover to sell liquors be translerred to the new firm of Hoover & Garrett, and which was referred to me, I have the honor to report that on examining the law I find that the same can not be granted, and call the attention of the parties interested to section 1421 of the Re vised Code. Adopted. Commissioner Meyer submitted the fol lowing in reference to a bill for the payment of certain hoes: The committee to whom was referred the communication of General G. P. Harrison have carefully inquired into the case. The chief of the convict guard informs your committee that the work was doue for the city under the direction of Dr. J. J. Waring, and that thirteen hoes had been delivered to him by Mr. Clay, of which number nine were returned, the other four being worth less when sent for by Dr. Waring. The committee recommend that the biil be not passed. Adopted. MISCELLANEOUS. Action of the Chairman in directing that the Quacco bridge over the canal be re paired at a cost of twenty-five dollars was ratified. Application of Wm. Duglis for relief was referred to Commissioner Meyer. Several similar applications were referred to the ladies of the Industrial Home. The committee to whom was referred the resolutions passed by the Public Road Com missioners December 11, 1876, recommend ing the construction of a causeway connec tion between Isle of Hope aud Skidaway Island, beg leave to report that a petition from a number of the inhabitants of both islands aud others, was acted upon July 23d, 1873, and January 7, 1874, Indefinitely post poning further actiou in relation to this matter. Your committee therefore reuort adverse to the recommendation of the Pub lic Road Commissioners. Commissioner . Meyer reported unfavor ably on application of Mrs. Mary Wilson for relief. Application for the use of chain gang to assist in ditching and bridging Ogeechee neck bridge, by commissioners of said road, was referred back to General Harrison, Chairman of Board of Commissioners and Public Roads, for information, and that he state the probable cost of the same aud at what time the road became a public one.

I allude in this connection to the “professional” and non-ccmmittal termination of the theatrical advertisements and handbills that are now heralding coming entertainments, viz: “Prices of admission as usual.” This style of aonouncemaut reserves to the enterpris ing manager the right of obtaining a fee, more or less, peculiar to the custom of the town that be strikes. Now, the prices since the war, as you are well aware, in this city have been generally one dollar, seventy-five cents, and fifty cents, with the first amount increased in accord ance with the attractions of the “grand par ticular star.” In these hard times seventy- five cents, fifty cents, and twenty-five cents would be more agreeable to theatre-goers and profitable to showmen. Would it not be proper for proprietors, when closing contracts for the Theatre and the various music halls, to urge this fact on visiting agents and managers? The present rate? are too high, and must diminish the number of patrons until prices are brought to correspond with our means. Yours, Lem. E. C. Roffer*’ City Directory For 1877-78 for sale at the Morning News office. ^ We were placed in possession yesterday of the particulars of one of the most dia bolical outrages. that has been perpe trated in this community for some time past. It appears that on Tuesday night about half-past seven o’clock Mr. Gleason, connected with the firm of Messrs. Gleason, Harmon & Co., draymen, whose stables are located on William street, near West Broad, whilst in his house in tho immediate vicinity, heard a commotion iu the stable. Upon proceeding to the place he discovered one of the horses struggling violently to free himself from the halter, by which he was secured in the stall. The animal was appa rently in great pain, and he was pulling so on the halter that it was found necessary to cut it in order to release him, and this was done. The horse then walked out of the stall into the yard, where he remained standing for about twenty minutes in evident suf- tering, and then sank suddenly to the ground and expired at once. Mr. Gleason was unable to discover what ailed the animal, which was a very fine healthy one, and valued at $200, and” could not un derstand the cause of his death. After the death of the horse he returned to his house and, at an early hour, retired. About ten o’clock he was again.aroused by a nois^iu the stable, when he awakened his brother and went with him to ascertain the cause. They found one of the finest mules kicking and plunging and trying to get loose. The animal was released and turned into the yard, where he ex hibited symptoms similar to those noticed in the horse. The mule fell to the ground shortly after reaching the yard, and seemed to be suffering greatly. Efforts were made to relieve the poor creature, but without avail, and Dr. Geo. Perry, a veteri nary surgeon, was sent for. Previous to bis arrival, shortly before 12 o’clock, the mule died. Both animals had commenced swell ing before death, and were fearfully dis tended. Mr. Gleason suspected from appearances that the animals bad been poisoned, and that Fraser Wright, a recently dis charged negro employe, had something to do with it. Officer Naughtin was thereupon notified of the fact, aud about quarter after twelve succeeded in appre hending Wright in Dr. Cox’s stock yard, which is in the immediate vicinity. Wright deuied the charge, but bis guilt is believed, as on Saturday when he was discharged he is reported to have said to Mr. Gleason, “111 make you suffer for this.” It is supposed that about the time for feeding the stock, Wright, who is familiar with the premises, slipped into the stable and dropped some poisonous compound in the troughs, mixing it with the food. Ho was committed to jail, and we hear will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. The animals were cut open yester day by Dr. Perry, and their stomachs re moved, and will, we are informed, be analy zed by Dr. Read. This is certainly one of the most cruel and vindictive acts of vandalism that has ever occurred here, and the perpetrator deserves the severest punishment. The value of the animals was about $400, and the loss is a serious one. Goobers vs. Ground Nut*. Editor Morning News : “Much Ado About Nothing*’ being announced at the Theatre for this afternoon’s matinee, your corres- spondence about “The Peanut Business” has succeeded most admirably in the per formance. That there is a decided difference in wliat was formerly known as the African “Gullah” or “Goober Pea” and the so-called ‘Tinder,*’ “Ground Nut,” “Ground Pea” and “Peanut” any one familiar with the cultivation forty or fifty years ago can inform you. Both spe ck s are, or were, cultivated alike, the “Goo ber” having a single seed in a shell, and be ing in shape almost round—not so delicate in taste as the “Ground Nut.” and only eaten after being boilod—planted more particu larly in times long past for the feed of hogs; tho “Groundnut” being for export, to be used in manufacturing chocolate, a very small quantity at that time being used by the “aged patriarchs and innocent youDg children of this great Commonwealth.” Your New York friend need not have ap plied to “Cottonville” and “Gia Town” for information because “G. Cracker” could not give information that we here have some “chawed” to order. Cx. Savannah, October 10, ^77. Hotel Arrival*.
