South Broad and Ahercoru streets, was last
evening the scene of the gathering of a
large and brilliant assemblage of relatives
and friends to witness the marriage of his
eldest daughter, Miss Minnie Ander
son, one of the most beautiful and
charming of Savannah’s fair daughters.
The happy grooin was William Allen, Esq.,
a promising young lawyer of Richmond,
Virginia. The ceremony was performed by
Right Rev. Bishop W. M. Gross, according
to the Catholic religion, of which the groom
;s a convert. The attendants comprised
six young ladies, among them Miss
Lallie Anderson, a sister of the
bride, Miss Nellie Gqrdon, Miss Abbie
Orme, Miss Lillian Gillian), Tbcre were no
groomsmen. The ceremony was performed
at six o’clock, after which a reception was
held, when the usual congratulations and
good wishes were tendered. At half
past nine o'clock the bridal couple, accom
panied by immediate relatives, proceeded in
carriages to the depot of the Savannah and
Charleston Railroad, where the farewells
were spoken. They left on the through
ear of the 10 o’clock tiattf for Rich
mond, the home of the groom', whither they
are followed by the best wishes and earnest
hopes of the numerous friends and admirers
of the fair bride for a happy and prosperous
future.
ifletsiiHg of tlie Schuetzens— The
A large and enthusiastic itgeting of the
Savannah Schuetzen Gesellschaft was
at their hall last evening, when among other
lmpnrl.apt business the approaching annual
festival w«© c^.s/dered. After a full discus
sion of the subject it wa* resolved to hold
the annual festival on the 14th, $.nd
16th of May next. It was further resolved
that invitations be extended the several
German societies of this city, the Schuet
zen Clubs of Charleston and Augusta,
Aiken, Columbus and Jacksonville, besides
the military of Savannah, to participate in
the opening day’s ceremonies and the fes
tivities incident to the occasion.
The toUq^ying members were appointed a
committee to Ccwip’ote all necessary details:
Messrs. J. Paulsen, Cha*. .Syiler, \ . S. Stu-
der, C. Werner, M. Helmken, k. F. Subor
ner, F. X. Bingel.
The carnival committee submitted their
report, showing that the entire affair had
been a perfect find after the settle
ment of all accounts a fair balance had been
left to the credit of tlie society. Tfee com
mittee were discharged with thanks.
It is understood that the May festival will
exceed in interest and attraction any of its
predecessors.

A New Cotton Picker,
A cotton picker which promises to work a
revolution in the harvestingof cotton, and it
is said will do the work of one hundred la
borers in the field, has just been invented
gud patented by a North Carolina man.
The machine is about the siz?; of and weight
of a two-horse wagon, aud is upon u*ree
wheels, the centre one running between two
rows aud the other two outside of them.
The two driving wheels, from which is
worked the machinery, is high enough to
carry tbe cotton. The
front wheel is about half toe itcigl t, end
works on a pivot joint, to which are aW
taclied the horses, which walk betwcon the
mws. The picking inachiue consists of two
hunuitw finger shaped cards on India rub
her. working up and down through the
stalks as the machine' navai*!..,*
These cards will not take hold ot an
but the lint of the open cotton, and takes
that whether it is on the ground or on the
;on of the stalk. Leaves, twigs and hulls
will not btork to them, but the cotton touch

Aunual Report-A Deserving and
Practical Charity.
AVe have before u.- the third annual report
of Mrs. Aminta E. Green, President of the In
dust rial Relief Society and Home for the
Friendless, which we publish herewith and
most earnestly commend to the careful
perusal and consideration of our readers.
This institution is one of the best organized
and conducted in Savannah, and through
its mediumship much good has been done,
many worthy poor and afflicted people re
lieved, and employment furnished to indus
trious, deserving persons. The following is a
copy of the report:
In every civilized commuhity, the claims
of the poor present themselves to the notice
of the more favored classes, with an urgency
that requires something more than an occa
sional or spasmodic effort for relief. This
conviction finds utterance and embodiment
in societies where there is systematic and
concerted action, and where the judgment
and sympathies, like sentinels on guard,
protect against imposition on the one hand
and neglect or oversight on the other.
Such a society has now existed in our city
for three years, known by its corporate
name of Industrial Relief Society aud Home
for the Friendless. Its books, its work, its
details, are at all times open to the public,
but its officers desire to present at this time
its third complete report.
Taking cognizance of the necessities of
the city poor, without regard to age, sex. or
creed, it distributes through a regular agent,
aided by its Vice President, relief in shoes,
clothing, provisions, wood aud money.
During the past vear there have been dis
tributed ST pairs of shoes, 2,455 yards of dry
goods, and 295 cords of wood; also groceries
to the amount of £475, in addition to the
meals (more than 5,000 in number), which
have been given out at the door of the
Home; also in money £79*.
This aid has been gi\ en to 480 families re
presenting about 1,600 persons, of wtiom 185
were Roman Catholics, 40 Methodists, 48
Episcopalians, 22 Baptists, 15 Lutherans, 12
Presbyterians, 3 Israelites, and the rest
(155) claiming no association with any sect
or denomination.
Of these 480 families or heads of families,
299 are widows, aud in many more there are
helpless and afflicted husbands. We are
thus supplementing the work of the Widows'
Society.
We have not been able, in these depressed
times, to do much in proriding employment
for male applicants, but are ready to provide
any one of either sex with coffee and bread
at the breakfast hour, soup and bread at the
dinner hour, at the door of the Home. In
addition, we give bacon, tea, coffee, flour,
grist and meal to some who come at hours
w hen there is no cooked food; in certain
cases enough is given to last two or three
days. Since the ticket system was established,
the number of male applicants for food has de
creased in a remarkable degree, proving what
we had suspected—that the real object of
these wanderers, chiefly from other States,
in applying for aid at offices and dwellings,
oftentimes was not food but money. We
have sifted them by the offer of work, such
as sawing, pumping, etc., and in many
cases have been able to rid the town of
them. If our citizens will give us the
money carelessly throw n to beggars, or in
vest in our teii-cqnt tickets, each one of
which ensures to the bearer a good meal, the
money will not only accomplish more in
value received, but fail to find its way, as
it now does, to the first corner liquor shop.

duced to its low*** toftPlicity, has adjustable
parts, is very durable and easi.y h.a..; a^ed.
The driver by leaning back iu his seat can
stop the picking in order to drive to the
place to unload. This is done without
throwing Ihn driving wheels out of gear.
The harvester is estimated to piefc out the
cotton at the rate of om dollar 7*./ UaU., aud

The usefulness of the Horae itself
is found, not alone in furnishing
food for the poor of the city, but
in receiving and training friendless w omen
and neglected girls, whether from the coun
try around or from the low purlieus and
wretched homes of the town—a virtuous
record being the only condition of eutranee.
There are those now under its roof who were
unconsciously hurrying one year ago u> the
edge of that abyss from whjch toe good
recoil: then with slovenly mieu they
paced these streets as beggars; now
with tidy look and changed demeahor,
they read* and sew, and work with systematic-
care and industry, for each one of the young
who becomes an inmate of our Horne must
observe the rule which requires them to
spuuq tgc hours in house work, iu
kitchen or laundry, wlj'ilc the lutornoon is
given to study. We thus reverse the usual
order in institutions, for ours is an Indus
trial Home, keeping ever a special object in
view. ’
The record shows that 11 women, 4 in

The combat raged with much fierceness for
nearly twenty minutes, during which
time the other sailor put in a

of Kelly had to gi|e- up and retreated to

We refer to our Treasurer’s report, to show
whence wro derived tfic means to aucompiish
these results, making special acknowledg
ments to the County Commissioners for the
funds we have used as their almoners.
Large as the amount seems, it w as insuffi-
ci-’Pt to nav for the food given at the door,
In addition «q us djtj urrv-mept for clothing,
wood ami other necessaries.
Besides this sum, which is considerately
placed at our disposal, wo have
no certain revenue, nor do we ex
pect to have. for God has said
that the poor shall never cease out of the
land, doubtless to cultivate iu His children
that practical benevolence which likens
them to Himself. And thus, our donations
this year, which were all unsolicited, are
most grateful to Him, and will be recog
nized in that day when the secret gifts shall
bo rewarded openly.
Gratefully 1 (tanking thosp t^hose
names aud donations are appended,
we make a special acknowledg
ment to Mr. B. Doughty, of Halcyondale,
Georgia, for 25 cords of wood; to the officers
of the Central Railroad and its courteous Su
perintendent,Col. Wm. Rogers,for free trans
portation of all the wood purchased for our
poor; to the Widows’ Society for eleven
iiiotiihs’ ftoC ( 'f budding occupied by the
Home; to Grace : H:\riey and other jitfle
girls for their tableaux proceeds; to Dr.
Charlton for his usual professional kind
