Mr. B. was the adopted son of the late Gen. Francis S. Bartow, whose name he bears, and though but a mere boy at the time, was dangerously wounded in the historic battle of Manassas, where the life of the lamented Bartow was sacrificed on the altar of his country. He was afterwards a midshipman in the Confederate navy, and while fighting in the "Naval Battal ion" at the battle of Sailors’ Creek, was again wounded, and thus has the distinc tion of having participated with unques tioned gallantry in the first and last great battles in Virginia. His many friends will be glad to greet him and make his sojourn in his old home pleasant and agreeable. He returns to Macon in a few days. A Plca*ant Occailon. The steamer David Clark, which arriv ed last night, was several hours behind her regular time on account of the storm which has prevailed north of here for sev eral days past, the northwest wind having driven th^ water from the small rivers and sounds forming the “ inside passage," necessitating several stoppages for the tide. The Clark bad about seventy-five passengers on board, and, notwithstand ing the delays, the voyage was a most pleasant one. New Year’s eve a dance was arranged by Purser Callan, which was participated in by nearly all the pas sengers. The occasion was a very pleas ant one, and will long be remembered by those on board the Clark on her long but agreeable "New Year’s trip."—Jackson ville Union and Press, $d. —— Claire podlftt. Dr. Debpit, the well known chiropo dist, passed through this city on Satur day for Jacksonville, Fla. He is one of the most successful men in his line, as those who were treated in this city by him, two veirs ago, will testify. We do not give*ibis as a puff, but because several parties we know of who were crippled from diseases of the feet owe two years of cpmfprt to his skillful treatment.—Morning News, December 26, 1876. Dr. Deboit is now in the city and can be found at the Marshall House. Death of an Old Citizen. Captain James L. Fabian, a well known citizen, died yesterday morning from a carbuncle in his tac^, The deceased was an engineer by trade, ami in thppld days of steamboating on the Savannaii rive/, filled that position on one of the steam ers plying between Savannah and Au gusta/ ami was afterward captain of a boat. Retiring froi# this position, he en gaged successfully in and accu mulated quite a handsome eomptegee. He was a native of South Carolina and was about fifty-eight years of age. — “■ Change Schedule. The attention of 041 fenders is di rected to the change of schedule by }he Atlantic and Gulf Railroad, the train leaving daily fbr Jacksonville and Talla hassee at 4ri5 p m., and accommodation train leaving every 4$7 (Sundays ex cepted) at 7 a. m. A change in the schedule of the Savau nab and Charlaston Railroad is also an nounced, and the announcement of the running thrpugh to Boston of a sleeper is also made. Personal. We had thd pleasure on Saturday of meeting Gen. Eli Warren, of Perry, Ga. This venerable and distinguished Geor gian is on a visit to his son, the Hon. Josiah L. Warren, of this city, Nearly seventv-seven years old, lie looks ahd is as active as many who have not reached W. A. Hemphill. Esq., and N. P. T. Finch, Esq., of the Atlanta Constitution. and their families, are at the Screven House. They contemplate a trip to Florida. Bread-Full Weight for the Prlee. The announcement of Mr. John Schwarz in another column will be read with interest by every one. It will be seen that hereafter he will regulate the weight of bread by the price of flour. For this week five-cent loaves will weigh three-quarters of a pound instead of half a pound, and ten-cent loaves one and n half pounds instead of one pound. This is a move in the right direction, and the public generally will appreciate it. The Battle of Gettyahurg. The regular monthly meeting of the Georgia Historical Society will take place at Hodgson Hall this even ing at eight o'clock. An interesting feature on this occasion will be the reading of a paper on "The Battle of Gettysburg,” by General Lafayette Mc Laws, a member of the society. A cordial invitation is extended by the society to all who may desire to attend. An Age of Competition. In this day of the world competition is active in the extreme. But in the long ran it's the host which wins the prize of public preference in spite of all the de ceits used to bolster up weak articles. For this reason Doolf.t’s Yeast Powder is recognized as the highest possible achievement in baking powder. Dr. Deboit, the celebrated ehiiopodist, is stopping at the Marshall House, where he will remain for a few days. Many in the city can testify to his skill, as he has rendered them substantial relief, and in many instances has perfected permanent cures.

Prof Tripp will deliver a course of two lectures on Europe, to embrace the present Turco-Russian war, in Masonic Hall, for the benefit of the Port Society, on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings next. As already mentioned, six courses were delivered in Charleston, South Caro lina, last winter—one a matinee course of six lectures in Charleston Female Semi nary to a select audience, comprising the teachers and young lady students and a number of the more cultured citizens, including Rev. Dm. Pinkney, Yiader and Brackett. A9 will be seen by the follow- ing extract of a letter just received, Mr. Tripp has been invited to repeat the course there again this winter: “Charleston Female Seminary, I “Charleston, S. C., January 22,1878. ( “Prof. Alonzo Tripp: Dear Sir—I mentioned your lectures to my girls this morning, arid they received the suggestion with such heartv acclamation that I write at once to say that I would like you to lecture again in our hail as you did last year, and that I will very gladly use whatever influence I may have to bring the rare merits of your lectures to the notice of others. “ Hoping this will reach you in time to anticipate other plans you may have in view, I am, etc., with highest respect, venr truly, E. A. Kelly.” Professor Tripp delivered a course of his lectures for the Library Association in Wilmington, N. C., in March, 1876. The following is the conclusion of a long editorial notice of two lectures, in that staid journal, the North Carolina Presby terian: “There seems to be but one opinion of these discourses by those who availed themselves of the opportunity to attend them—that of unqualified "commenda tion. “Mr. Tripp's hearers are held spell bound by the charms of the current nar rative, while kept in pleasurable antici pation of what is to follow. It is diffi cult to say in what the peculiar charm of these exercises consist, unless it be in the admirable precision of language and wonderful condensation of thought by which a vast mass of historical informa lion is most perspicuously presented in so short a space of time. The grouping of incidents indeed is done in a masteriv manner and very many of the speaker's sentences are min iris of lofty and vigorous st le. His description of the battle of Balaklava and the storming of the Malakoff of Sebastopol presented these incidents as to the direct gaze of the spectator. Throughout there is no attitudinizing and no grand hursts of rhetorical flourish, and probably one of the chiefest attractions should he held the entire naturalness of the whole. ” We understand that a large number of tickets have already been taken for the course here, and by many ftf our leading citizens, and the lectures promise to be in Savannah as they have proved elsewhere—a gratifying success—and the literary event of tiie season. xiitl .Hatters and luffs Noted.

A large number of people from ihe country were in the city Saturday and yesterday. Quite a delegation, including many ladies, visited the Morning News building to obtain a view of Savannah from the cupola. It is rumored that a society of young ladies is being organized who are sol emnly pledged to snub with unmitigated fury every young man who makes more than three remarks having any bearing whatsoever upon the weather. We understand that the City Council will liaye a caucus meeting on Tuesday night next' when lie pjaims of the vari ous candidates for city offices will be considered. Those who intend to apply should send in their applications at once. Died on the Street. Yesterday morning about half past eight o'clock a white man, whilst passing up Whitaker street, and when nearing the corner of St. Julian, was observed to suddenly stagger and fall to the sidewalk, Scycral persons in the vicinity rushed to liis assistance, and discovered that he was semi-uncon scious and there Was a copious issue of blood from his Efforts were made to restore him without avail, 9qd be died in a few minutes after he fell, Tte deceased was named Thomas Leonard, but was commonly known as Thomas Martin, having assumed the surname of his step father.

HOME MANUFACTURES. Recovery of Stolen Property—An Exciting Chase. On Friday evening shortly after ten o’clock two negroes entered tfie grocery store of Mr. Beckman, adjoining the resi dence of Mr. M. F. McCrohan.at the corner of Wayne and Tatnail streets, and pro posed to sell him a lot of silverware at a bargain. Suspecting their character, Mr. Beckman sent word of his suspicions to Mr. McCrohan. who was at home, and who immediately proceeded to the store. After a few words concerning the prop erty he agreed to purchase the articles, and requested the negroes to wait until he could go and get the money, stating he would return in a few minutes. Mr. Beckman, understanding the plan, at once engaged the negroes in conversation with the view of quieting their apprehen sions and detaining them. Mr. McCro han, quietly making his exit through the gate, hastened to the residences of Constable Waring Russell, Jr., and Mr. Thos. J. Sheftall, in the vicinity, and se curing their assistance returned to the store During the absence of Mr. McCro han one of the negroes, who it seems bad become suspicious, stationed himself at the outside door of the store to watch. Upon seeing the parties approach he deserted his accomplice and fled, suc ceeding in making his escape. The other negro was in the store when the three entered, and before he could be secured, made a dash and reached the door, when he was grabbed by the collar of the coat by Mr. McCrohan, but succeeded in free ing himself and continued his flight. He was closely pursued down Gordon street to Barnard, when Messrs. Russel! and Sheftall attempted to flank. him by running down Tatnail street, anticipating that he would make for the lane. When near the corner he turned on Mr. McCro han. who was gaining on him, and delib erately fired, fortunately missing his mark; and then continued his Bight. He managed to elude the other parties on Tatnail street and kept them at a distance until near the corner of Gaston and Jefferson streets, when he wheeled, still running, and fired at Officer Russell, who was in advance and who returned the fire. Fortunately right at this point the negro stumbled over something and fell. Before he could rise Officer Russell, who was close behind him, leaped forward, struck him on the head and knocked him over. The others coming up in a few seconds tho fellow was secured and carried to jail. The following is a list of the articles recovered: One large silver waiter, two silver gob lets. a silver castor stand, twenty-two plated knives, and one silver mustard spoon. The silver waiter, goblets and spoons, etc., w'ere identified as the property of Capt. T. F. Screven, whose residence’was entered and robbed on Thursday night, as mentioned in the Morning News of Sat urday , to whom they were promptly de livered by Officer Russell. A gold English piece of money, (a pocket piece), which was also taken at the time of the burglary, and which was dropped by the burglar in the scuffle with the officer, was found by a small colored boy living at Mr. Russell’s house, who gave it to that gentleman, and it was by him deliv ered to Capt. Screven. The silver ser vice was very handsome, and was a pre sentation to Captain S. from the Savan nah Volunteer Guards Battalion. From papers, letters, etc., found on the prisoner, it is l>eyond doubt that he has been concerned in some burglary in South Carolina. Capt. Screven intends a vigorous pros ecution of the burglar, and as the evi dence against him is strong, the prospect is he will join his comrade Speed in do ing service for the State. — —— Arrest of a Notorious Thief and Ex- Convict from Brunswick, <>a. A negro, who gives his name as Joseph Brown. was arrested on Saturday by officer Waring Russell, Jr. When arrested he was in the act of hammering a valuable brass check valve, which he confessed he had stolen from a cotton press near the gas house. Magistrate Isaac Russell went to Lamar’s press and notified Mr. Lewis that the thief and property were at his office, when Mr. Lewis stated that nQ such property was stolen from that press. The negro pointed out a place where the theft was committed. The magistrate wa$ Satisfied that the negro was endeavoring to throw him off the trail, and, at the suggestion of the engineer at Lamar’s press, he requested Mr. Lewis to speak to Mr. Feuger at the Central press by the telephone and inform him of the recovery of the property. During the day the engineer of the Cen tral press appeared at the magistrate’s office and identified the property as be longing to that press, and recognized Jo seph Brown, the prisoner, as a negro that had been loafing around the wharf. A warrant was taken out against him at the instance qf the superintendent, Mr. Samuel J. Whitesides, and the negro was committed to jail to await trial. Joseph Brown says he was formerly of Brunsw ick. Ga.,’but having killed’a man. and being convicted of man slaughter, served the term of four years in the State’s prison. He denied the theft at first, but after the property had been identified and he had been re cognized, he then admitted that he stole the article from the fire room of the cotton press. Nil*** Pomeroy’* Engagement. Jhe beautiful and talented voting ac- treW Miss Louise Fomeroy, closed a most successful engagement in this city on Saturday night. The audiences which greeted the exceptionally fine company were large,fashionable and intelligent.and never was Savannah more charmed and delighted. Miss Pomeroy’s portraitures of “Viola,” in “Twelfth Night,” at the matinee, and cf "Imogen,” in “Cymbel- ine,” at the evening performance, characters totally dissimilar, dis played her versatile genius, excel lent conception, and magnificent his trionic abilities to advantage and added new laurels to the reputation she achiev- eu !? v her matchless rendition of "Rosa lind.” Miss Anna ? toI 7* the charming voung actress, who has lieen on the stage hut a brief wl)ile, personated "Olivia” at the matinee in most supejh #tyle. ljer evident earnestness and excellent diction favoiaitly impressed Savannah theatre goers, with whom she will always here after be popular. The other support in both pieces was faultless, and we can commend in the most unmeasured terms the entire company as the Dost that has visited the South since the close of the war. They play in Augusta to-night. Sad Death of a Savai,uahlaq. A telegraphic dispatch received by the family from a friend in Philadelphia yasterday, conveyed information of the drowning at sea on Sunday night last of Mr. Joseph Fay Stevenson, son of Capt. John Stevenson, of this city. We learn that Mr. Stevenson was employed on the ship Asljland, plying between Philadel phia and^all River, and whilst on the trip to the former place on Sunday night last, about twelve o'clock, a heavy gale set in. When off Bamegat, about forty miles south of New York, Mr. Stevenson, who was at the lime engaged on deck, was washed overboard and drowned. His body had not been recovered. The de ceased was a native of Savannah, and ■jas about twenty-one years of age. He was at one lime ig the employ of the At lantic and Gulf Railroad. The Savannah Paper mil. The importance and advantages of home manufactures have from time to time been dwelt upon, and their bene fits to the community at large pointed out, and we are glad to say not without effect Talk, howbeit, does not erect mills, foundries and workshops, and fur nish employment to the many who desire it. In the successful establishment of home enterprises years of labor and lav ish expenditure of money are often re quisite, and though deterred somewhat from these causes, and slow to action, a retrospective glance shows that, consid ering ail things, our people have done ex ceeding well,and Savannah to-day boasts of industries which are a credit to her enterprise and energy. A few years since a number of public spirited gentlemen started a paper mill, and it was operated with indifferent success, until a short time since when it was sold out and purchased by a new company, known as the Savannah Paper Mill Company. Under the new management the machin ery has been refitted, new iioilcrs put in, and on the 3d of this month the mill resumed operations, and it is expected will be kept running on full time (twenty- four hours). The capacity of the mill is the manufacture of three tons of paper a day, and it is anticipated that this will lie attained during the ensu ing week. The product of the mill is a brown wrapping-paper, made from rice straw, with a small mixture of old paper and rope and bagging, and is of superior quality to any wrapping made from other materials, and is sold at the same price. Large quantities are sold in New Orleans, Mobile, Charleston, Atlanta and else where. This mill is a valuable addition to our industrial resources, as it not only utilizes a hitherto wasted article indigenous to our locality but furnishes employment to a large number of persons. The directors of the company are Messrs. J. C. Rowland (President), 8. P. Hamilton (Secretary and Treasurer), and II. A. Stults. Mr. Porter Tremaine is the Superintendent. The mill, which is the largest paper mill in the South, is well worthy of a visit from our citizens and we do not doubt that permission to inspect its workings can be obtained from the officers at any time.

Roof Burned. An alarm of fire was turned in from station No. 34, at the jail, yesterday morning about quarter past one o’clock, occasioned by the discovery of fire issuing from the roof of an unoccupied two-story frame dwelling at the corner of Montgomery and Hall streets. The department reached tiie ground so promptly that the "fire fiend” had not time to do much havoc, and the spreading flames were speedily extinguished with trifling damage. Tiie building belonged to the estate of Habersham. Accidentally Shot. Yesterday afternoon about half past one o'clock. Jake Charlton, colored, who was under the influence of liquor, whilst flourishing a pistol in a crowd at the corner of Bay lane and Abercom streets, accidentally shot himself through the palm of the left hand. The ball passed entirely through, inflicting a painful wound, but nut serious. The wounded warrior proceeded to the office of a phy sician, where his hand was properly dressed. Hotel Arrival*.
