(Tribute of Sfspfft.
Headq'r'6 Say. Vol. GUARDS Battalion, l
Savannah, Ga., January 9th, 1378. )
We are again called upon to bow In humble
i submission to the will or God and to record our
! grief for the loss and our respect for the memo
ry of another of our corps.
William Henry Doty, long a member of
Company B. departed this life on the 23d day of
I July A 'D. 1877, aged 27 years. His sad and
untimely death was the result of severe injuries
sustained about three weeks before in the faith
ful i**rformance of his duty as an employe of
the Central Railroad Comi.any. He bore his
excruciating pains with remarkable, nay:
superhuman fortitude, induced, as it was. by the
noble purpose to keep the true state of his suf
ferings from the already anxious and over
burdened mind of a widowed mother. And be
fore the cold hand of death had led him to the
portals of the grave, where
“Only the actions of the just
Smell sweet ,"
he knew the end of his existence was nigh, and
it was without a murmur, and with the calm of
a peaceful mind, that his spirit passed into the
future.
In life the qualities of his nature were best
shown to us in his gentleness and urbanity and
in his firm attachments to and love for fnends.
He was a consistent and valued member of
our corps, as his readiness to perforin the duties
of the soldier and to join in ail that pertained
to its welfare attested. His love for the Guards
was warm and deep. To show its extent we
have but to relate one incident. About a week
before his death our band corps was on a sere
nading tour, the music being wafted by centle
breezes to his sick chamber. He said, “I hear
music. The Guards are out. I uish I could be
with them!" But no more will his e_r give heed
or his bosom swell to earthly sounds. His
spirit has ascended to the throne of its giver,
and it is with this sweet consciousness that we
Jay our last mortal tribute on his bier.
As u further testimonial of our regard be it
Res-lived, 1st. That* we mourn as soldiers
should the melancholy death of our late com
rade William Henuy 1>oty.
Resolved. 2d. That a page on our minute book
be specially set apart to record his death and
perpetuate bis memory.
Resolved, 3d. That a copy of this preamble
and these resolutions be transmitted to his be
reaved family, to whom we tender our sincere
condolence. ...
Resolved, 4th. That a copy be also furnished
to the Savannah Morning News for publication.

THE CURRENCY QUESTION.
The Savannah Cotton Exchange on
tha “Silver BUI.”
A general meeting of the Savannah
Cotton Exchange was held yesterday
afternoon at four o’clock, when the fol
lowing proceedings were had:
Mr. Marmaduke Hamilton offered the
following preamble and resolutions,
which were seconded by Gen. G. M.
Sorrel,and carried by an unanimous vote:
Whereas, A bill has been introduced
into Congress popularly known as the
“silver bill;” and whereas, the impres
sion prevails that the South is unani
mously in favor of said bill; therefore,
be it
Reunited, 1. That it is the opinion of this
Exchange, in general meeting assembled,
that the agricultural, commercial, manu
facturing and all other interests of this
country will be injured by the passage of
said bill.
Resolved, 2. That as gold is the basis
of financial transactions in nearly all of
the principal nations of the world, it is
for our advantage to resume it as the ba
sis of our currency.
Resolved, 3. That the true interests of
this country require a return to specie
payments so soon as practicable, and that
by specie payments we mean payments
in gold, using silver only as an auxiliary
and for small amounts, as was customary
before the war.
Resolved, 4. That these resolutions be
published in the newspapers of this city,
and a copy of them sent to each of the
Senators and Representatives in Congress
from this State.

Savannah Theatre.
Our play-goers will be pleased to learn
that the celebrated tragedienne, Madame
Janauschek, will commence an engage
ment at the Savannah Theatre on Friday
evening next, the 18th instant, when will
be presented, for the first time in Savan
nah, the grand tragedy from the German
Iliad, “The Song of Nibelungen” enti
tled “Brunhild.” We will present a
sketch of this play, which is entirely
new to our readers, in the Telegram on
Sunday next. On Saturday, Shakspeare’s
great tragedy of Macbeth will be pre
sented. with the talented Jan
auschek as Lady Macbeth, who
will lie supported by the famous
tragedian Mr. J. II. Taylor and a com
pany of unusual excellence. A matinee
will be given on Saturday afternoon,
when will be performed the new and
powerful play, written expressly for
Janauschek. entitled “Catherine of
Russia.” The sale of secured seats will
commence at Schreiner’s on Tuesday
next. The popularity of the renowned
tragedienne, and the general desire that
has been expressed to see her this season
leave no room for doubt that she will be
welcomed by large and fashionable
audiences.
Alarm of Fire.
About 2:05 this a. m. an alarm of fire
was sounded from the Germania engine
house, and from the height of the flames
it was generally believed that a serious
conflagration in the neighborhood of the
Central Railroad depot and yard was in
progress. The city alarm for that station
was not sounded, however, and iu pro
ceeding in the direction of the fire, it
was ascertained that it was caused by
the burning of certain small wooden
buildings in the locality near the Laurel
Grove Cemetery known as Frogtown.
The Fire Department was out on time,
and the flames were extinguished with
out any serious damage being inflicted.

Schenck’* Pulmonic Syrup, Sea
Weed Tonic and Mandrake Pill*.
These deservedly celebrated and popular
medicines have effected a revolution in the
healing art. and proved the fallacy of several
maxims which have for many years obstructed
the progress of medical science. The false sup
position that “Consumption is incurable’’ de
terred physicians from attempting to find reme
dies for that disease, and patients afflicted with
it reconciled themselves to death without mak
ing any effort to escape from a doom which
they supposed to be unavoidable. It is now
proved, however, that consumption can be
cured, and that it has been cured in a very
great number of cases (some of them apparent
ly desperate ones) by Schenck 's Pulmonic Syrup
alone: and in other cases by the same medicine
iu connection with Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic
and Mandrake Pills, one or both, according to
the requirements of the case.
Dr. S -henck himself who enjoyed uninter
rupted good health for more than forty years,
was supposed at one time to be at the very fate
of death, his physicians having pronounced his
case hopeless, and abandoned him to his fate.
He was cured by the aforesaid medicines, and,
since his recovery many thousands similarly
affected have used Dr. Schenck’s preparations
with the same remarkable success.
Full directions accompany each, making it
not absolutely necessary to personally see Dr.
Schenck unless patients wish their lungs ex
amined, and for this purpose he is profession
ally at bis principal office, corner Sixth and
Arch street*, Philadelphia, every Monday,
where all letters ior advice must be addressed.
Schenck's medicines are sold by all druggists.

Railroad Accident.
We learn that the detention of the
passenger train on the Central Railroad
on Wednesday evening was occasioned
by a run-off. The Macon Telegraph and
Messenger of yesterday gives the follow
ing account of the accident:
“As the down day passenger train was
running over an embankment about twen
ty five feet high, between the 178 and 179
mile post, about two miles below Gris-
woldville, a rail broke and threw the
baggage car and two passenger coaches
from the track. The engine and first car
passed safely over the rail, the rear
trucks of the second car were thrown off
and the remaining three cars entirely off
the track and down the embankment.
' ‘ In making the fearful leap the coaches
performed several revolutions before
reaching the bottom, the last car in par
ticular revolving, according to an eye
witness, three times and landing at the
bottom on the wheels. This was fortu
nately an empty coach.
“The passengers in the smoking car
leaped from the windows, some of them
jumping in the same direction in which
the coaches were falling, and only saving
themselves by the greatest presence of
mind. It w-as the barest accident that
some of them were not crushed under the
falling cars.
“From Mr. J. C. Van Sycles, who was
on the train and who made a very narrow
escape, we learn the above facts' There
were no casualties. The only injury was
a cut on the side of the head received by
Mr. Leonard, of Eatonton.
“One or two gentlemen from Macon
were aboard. The damage has been en
tirely repaired, and trains are now run
ning as usual. The regular passenger
train came in on time last night. In this
kind of weather rails are very liable to
break. No blame can be attached to the
road or its employes.”
Throoth from Boston to Savannah
Without Chans*.
The night passenger train from Char
leston which arrived here jesterday
morning over the Savannah and Charles
ton Railroad at half-past seven o’clock,
brought a splendid new sleeper direct
from Boston named the “Queen City,”
and under charge of Mr. J. H.
Anderson, a conductor of the Pullman
Palace Car Line Company. The sleep
er left Boston at 7 o’clock on Monday
night, and reached here at 7:30 a. m.
on Thursday, making the time from the
“Hub” to the Forest City in sixty hours
and a half. The distance is 1,130 miles,
and the following lines of railway were
traversed, in addition to ten miles bv the
steamer Man-land (formerly used by
the Baltimore, Philadelphia and
Wilmington Railroad, in making
connection at Havre de Grace over the
Susquehanna river.) The steamer plys
nov between Harlem and Jersey City,
and the car is run upon the rails laid on
the deck. The route is from Boston^ to
New York over the New York and New
England Railroad, including the ten
miles by the steamer Maryland; from^New
York to Philadelphia over thePennsyl-
f uia Railroad; from Philadelphia to Balti
.••re, over Philadelphia, Wilmington
and Baltimore Railroad; from Baltimore
to Washington, over Baltimore and
Potomac line: from Washington to
Quantico.over Alexandria and Fredericks
burg Railroad; from Quantico to Rich
mond, over Richmond, Fredericksburg
and Potomac Railroad; from Richmond to
Petersburg, over Richmond and Peters
burg Railroad; from Petersburg to Wel
don, over Petersburg Railroad; from
Weldon to Wilmington, over Wilming-
mington and Welaon Railroad; from
Wilmington to Florence, over Wilming
ton. Columbia and Augusta Railroad;
from Florence to Charleston, over North
eastern Railroad; from Charleston to
Savannah, over Ashley River Railroad
and Savannah and Charleston Railroad.
This route, it will be seen, embraces six
teen different railroads and the passage
by the steamer Maryland.
Yesterday morning a party, consisting
of Conductor Anderson. Mr. S. B. Toby,
of the Atlantic Coast Line, Mr. Wm.
Bren, Special Ticket Agent of the Sa
vannah and Charleston and Atlantic and
Gulf Railroads, and who is also agent at
Savannah of all the Pullman sleepers,
several other railroad officials and
a representative of the News visited the
depot to inspect the stranger from the
far-off Eastern city. The car is most
handsomely equipped, and provided with
all the modem and latest improvements.
It has ten sections and a most elegantly
fitted up drawing room. The upholster
ing and painting is really magnificent,
and one finds almost all the comforts of
a first-class steamer at hand. Each sec
tion is provided with portable card
tables, thus affording opportunity to pas
sengers to indulge in a social game of
cards, or to write, or read. The car is
thoroughly heated by steam pipes, the
stovd being in a fire proof compartment
at the rear, and is so arranged that the
coals could not be spilled out even if the
car should be overturned. Each window
has a double glass frame, and thus not
only the wind but dust is effectually
kept out. There are rests at each scat
for the arms and feet, and in
fact there is nothing omitted in all
the details to conduce to the comfort
of the passengers. The passengers have
their meals in the cars, making their
selections from a bill of fare furnished
by the conductor, who telegraphs ahead
to the eating place for what is ordered,
and it is ready, served up hot on the arri
val of the train, and is brought into the
car by the porter.
Several passengers came through from
Boston to Savannah, and quite a number
to and from different cities along the
route. At Wilmington there is a stop
page of an hour and a half, when the
trucks of the sleeper are changed, the
car being lifted by machinery, and trucks
suited to the different guage placed un
der her. During this delay the passen
gers are enjoying their meals in quietness
and privacy in the palace sleeper.
The arrangements in all respects are
excellent, and Mr. Anderson, an ex
perienced and efficient conductor, is un
tiring in his attention to those under his
charge.
It is anticipated that the enterprise
never before attempted will prove a per
fect success and the line become very
popular w-ith Northern tourists traveling
South. The sleeper left last night for
Boston attached to the 10 p. m. train on
the Savannah and Charleston Railroad.
Another sleeper of the same line and
character left Boston last night for Sa
vannah, and will arrive here on Sunday
morning.
^A number of strangers visited the de
pot yesterday to see the “Queen City.”

The Oglethorpe Light Infantry.
The regular quarterly meeting of this
veteran corps was held at its armory last
evening. The usual routine business was
transacted, and the question of the new
regulations for regimental parades was
brought up. The uniform of the corp>
already includes the white plume, and
the only additional accoutrements to the
uniform will be the cross-belts. These
will be provided in time for the parade
on the 19th inst The company is in good
condition, and does not show the decrease
in interest which is said to exist in
some of the military organizations of the
State.
I found Dr. Bull’s Cough Syrup to be
a most effectual remedy, and feel sure
that the most stubborn cough and cold
