This fine organization of young gentlemen
of our sister city will give a performance in
Savannah on Thursday evening, 20th inst.,
and from the reputation that they have
earned we feel confident that we can prom
ise our amusement lovers a very delightful
evening. They performed in Columbus on
Monday night, and the Times of that city
says:
The programme opened with a succession
of beautiful ballads, splendid instrumental
music, and numbers of witty sayings by the
two “end men”—Bridges Smith and Ed. L.
Brown. “When the Birds have Gone to
Sleep,” by Mr. Banks Winter, and the
“Knot of Blue and Gray,” by Mr. Julian
Price, were listened to with the greatest en-
joymeut. The clear and musical tenor of
the former and the rich baritone of the lat
ter captivated the audience. Mr. A. L.
Wood's “Golden Long Ago” was equally
enjoyed.
Among “the most taking” features were
the “Crow K Quartette,” by Messrs. Wood,
Barnett and Brown, which was rich; “The
Old Tramp Reunion,” in which Messrs. Ed.
Brown and Bridges Smith excelled Happy
Cal Wagner and Sam Price in their imper
sonations of “Uncle Gabe and Uncle Zeke;”
* ; M\' Novel,” by Mr. Brown in his in
imitable Dutch, which brought down
the house; the ‘ Triple Clog Dance’’
by the Donahue Brothers, wh.Q excelled
the most skillful professionals; and last,
but by no means least, for it was one of
the most enjoyable of all the renditions, the
singing by the Central City Quartette.
However, we should not leave out Mr.
Horace McLean in his specialties, and the
beautiful duet, cornet and violincello by
Profs Webb and Van Horn. The Amateurs,
upon the whole, give an entertainment sur
passing in itS euU ro 4 * TOt - r,r *” nln*.tjmth» nf

California’* Greatest Wonder.
Our community have offered in the lecture
announced to be delivered at Masonic Tem
ple this evening by Rev. J. C. Simmons, of
California, a rare intellectual treat, and we
anticipate seeing the handsome edifice
thronged with the elite and culture of Sa
vannah. The subject is “California’s
Greatest Wonder,” and the lecture is for the
benefit of Trinity Methodist Church. Those
therefore who* attend will not only
assist a local benevolent interest,
but demonstrate the appreciation of
our citizens for intellectual entertain
ments. Rev. Mr. Simmons is said to
be something of a humorist, and we may
reasonably anticipate that this lecture, while
embodying a vast amount of instructive and
valuable information, will be extremely en
tertaining and interesting. It is well known
to many that in California trees grow three
hundred feet high and are one hundred feet
in circumference; that the waterfalls are
from two to three thousand feet high, and
that the granite walls, like well wrought
masonry, tower to the same height. Mr.
Simmons, who has had his home for twenty-
six years ip this wonderful country, will de
scribe its natural attractions in most graphic
language. x
The price of tickets is only fifty cents; for
a gentleman and two ladies, one dollar.
Secure yours in time and be at the Masonic
Temple this evening, if you would wish to
pass a very pleas&ot, instructive and enter
taining evening.

A Fine Wine.
The “America” is the brand of a new
article of champagne which has just been
introduced in this market, and which, we
have no doubt, will prove extremely popular.
It has a fine flavor, is sparkling and refresh
ing and is bottled mots excellency, as
the sample sent to the sanctum last
evening can attest. It can be com
pared favorably with champagne of
foreign importation, and many would not
detect the difference. This wine is for sale
by Messrs. Rice & Jackson, of the Gem and
Resort saloons.

The Proposed Rifle Tournament.
We are pleased to learn that encouraging
reports have been received from some of
our neighboring cities in reference to the
proposed rifle tournament in this city on the
*22d July under the auspices of the Savan
nah Rifle Association, and we hope to be
enabled to make the announcement that the
representation of marksmen will be large.
The Charleston Journal of Commerce of
yesterday publishes the circular of the asso
ciation, giving the programme of the
proposed tournament, and supplements
it with an account of an interview by the
reporter with some of the members of the
Fusiliers, Carolina Rifle Battalion, Sumter
Guards, and the Charleston Riflemen. If
we are to accept the views of these gen
tlemen as an index of the feeling
of our Charleston friends, the pros
pect of haring a team from that city is
not encouraging. On a careful perusal of
the report, however, w« are satisfied that
there is a misapprehension, which is the
cause of the apparent apathy on
the subject. A member of the
Fusilier team is represented as saying:
“It will cost each mar. about twenty-five
or thirty dollars to go to Savannah* not
counting the entrance fee of one hundred
dollars.” Now, this is just about double
what we estimate the cost to be. The en
trance fee of one hundred dollars for twenty
men would be five dollars per man ; excur
sion fare to and from Savannah, five dollars:
hotel bill, two dollars, and three dollars for
incidentals—making only fifteen dollars.
The visiting teams would be the guests of
the Savannah Rifle Association on the day
of the contest, and hence would have no
expenses.
A Carolina Rifle Battalion member has
still higher notions, ana asserts it would
cost eaim man forty or fifty dollars. If it
did it would be optional entirely and not
necessary. Again, this member says his
command would be unwilling to shoot over
a strange range “without a sighting shot.”
Now, in regard to this objection, we are au
thorized in saying that it was adopted
simply with the view to saving time, and if
it is desired by the teams entered “sighting
shots” will be allowed.
A Sumter Guard member, while not very
enthusiastic, “thought thatateamof twenty
men could be raised in the citv, each man
to pay five dollars and his individual ex
penses.” Now this is the right kind of talk,
and we would like to hear of a team from
the Guards being made up.
“The medal man” of the Charleston Rifle
men was of the opinion that “while a
Charleston team may be made up to beat a
Savannah team,” he thought the expense of
the trip too great. We have shown that the
expense including everything, even the en
trance fee, would only average fifteen dol
lars per man, and surely this cannot be con
sidered. enormous. We w’ould heartily wel
come such a team, and trust that the gallant
“City by the Sea” will be represented. She
should not allow this opportunity to gain
additional laurels to pass.
We are inclined to think that the opinions
expressed in this interview do not represent
fully the sentiments of the riflemen of
Charleston. We are supported in this be
lief by the known interest manifested in
the tournament by a prominent officer of
the German Fusiliers and an influ
ential citizen of Charleston. We had
the opportunity of perusing a letter received
here yesterday from this gentleman, in
which he evinced a lively interest in the
proposed contest, and spoke most favorably
of it, giving assurance that his efforts would
be devoted to raising a team, and that he
anticipated success. Others have also been
heard from, and in communications of like
tenor.
Charleston should be represented, and we
hope will be. The expense is not sufficient
to be advanced as an argument against en
tering into this contest, and the failure to
send a team, in lieu of better objection,
may be otherwise construed.
We anticipate hearing encouraging re
ports from Columbus, Macon, Augusta and
Atlanta, and may say there is a prospect
that Mobile and Montgomery may possibly
be represented.
By all means let this first inter-State con
test in the South be a success and well
attended.

.fliNHion Cliureli for the Colored Peo
ple.
During the last few days everyone pass
ing along West Broad street, near its inter
section with Gaston, has noticed a new
building in course of erection. Upon in
quiry, we learned that it is designed as a
Presbyteriun tyissiqn Church for colored
people. It is a frame structure, fqrty by
twenty-seven feet, with a pitch of fifteen
feet, and when completed it will be a very
neat and commodious building.
This mission is under the charge of the
Savannah Presbytery, represented by their
Evangelistic Committee, which is com
posed of the Prqsbytqrlaq ministers of this
city. This committee have determined to
rely on the voluntary and unsolicited con
tributions of Christian people for the main
tenance of the enterprise. A few months
ago, when it was inaugurated, circulars
were addressed to a number of persons
apprizing them of the natqre and design of
the prooosed building, and indicating* the
persons* to whom contributions might be
sent. Rev. Mr. Gordon, the chairman of
the committee, informs us that hg re
ceived over five hundred dollars in money
besides several contributions of labor and
material. This sum will enable him to erect
the shell of the building and fit it up for use
during the summer months. No debt has
been or will be contracted. Not a dollar
will be spent until it is cQntnbqtcd. He
hopes to receive enough to plaster, paint
and finish the building in due time.
In Savannah this is rather a novel method
of raising money for benevolent purposes
and we will watch for the result with some
interest.

The Recent Temperance Excursion.
Savannah, June 12.—f'ditor Morning
News: Seeing a communication in the paper
of this date, iu reference to the recent ex
cursion under the auspices of R. E. Lee and
J. B. Gordon Councils, U. F. of T.,
to Tybee, I would take this method
of publicly tendering my thanks to
Mr. James Smith for valuahle services
rendered at the time of the accident in
rescuing mv child from my arms, as I at the
time knew nothing save that I was trying to
hold him. Also to Mr. Everitt for coming
to my assistance.
My injury, however, with the exception
of one bad braise, was only temporary. The
gentleman mentioned in your paper I am
told acted nobly, helping others who at the
time could not help themselves. One word
more to show how the ridiculous can be
mixed up with the sublime. At such an
awful moment, when children were crying,
women screaming and fainting, and some
preying, a colored individual was seeu
buckling a life-preserver around his base
violin and then put one around himself.
Verily, Sambo has an eye to business.

Operation* at the Woodville
Plantation Explained.
We continue our synopsis of the report of
the trial of the case of Craft vs. Naylor «fc Co.,
as published in the Boston Advertiser of the
10th and 11th inst. At the assembly of
court ou Saturday Craft again took the wit
ness stand, and in response to questions by
Mr. Lothrop, gave the following additional
explanation of the plan of operations on
the Woodville plantation :
His wife virtually controlled the planta
tion in 1873, he having decided to abandon
the lease until she persuaded him to allow
her to retain it; that much of the work on
the place, in the way of repairs, was done
by the order of other persons; that he was
ignorant as to the different grades of lum
ber used, and that the lumber used in re
pairs was bought with very little
discretion; that the prices of “houses”
built for those who came on the
plantation to work “ou shares”
and receive the advantages of education for
their children was from forty to sixty dol
lars, to the best of Craft's knowledge; that
eight of the families that came to the plan^
tation in 1875 came by reason of the failure
of a neighboring planter; that he never took
money without explaining his plan aside
from the printed announcements. Also
that, in his opinion, the use of the words
“agricultural school” in the circular, used
in soliciting subscriptions, did not call npon
him to establish a school such as is so de
nominated in the North; that the impression
carried by the circular had never been
corrected publicly over his signature;
that his plans were predicated upon a gift
of seven thousand dollars, and that he was
obliged to “cut his coat according to his
cloth,” as he received but three thousand
dollars ; he could not do what he would
have done with seven thousand dollars;
that he used the words “farm school’’ in
speaking of his scheme generally after he
found the impression conveyed by the word
“agricultural.”
the examination showed that Craft inter
preted his circulars in a rather different
manner from which their words would ordi
narily bear, and that his memory as to facts
and dates was not good, unless a regular
chronological order was presented in their
statement.
In the afternoon Mr. Lothrop re
sumed his cross-examination of Craft
He questioned him closely in regard
to the amounts of money he had re
ceived in various places, and a total of about
seven thousand dollars was reckoned up.
Craft could not produce his subscription
book, which in some mysterious manner had
been lost, and he said he never kept an ac
count book showing his expenditures, so
there was no way of determining the exact
amount he had received or disbursed. On
the redirect examination, conducted by Mr.
Rogers, copies of receipts for money paid
by Craft to his partner for his share in the
woodville plantation were produced to
meet the insinuation that this money
had not been paid. He was then
questioned closely in regard to the sub
scription book, as what it contained, etc.,
to show whether o- not there were any
conditions attached to the subscriptions.
He testified that no condition was
attached to any name, that he was never
asked by any person to render an account of
his receipts and expenditures at Woodville,
and that no subscriber had ever found fault
with him for tlie manner in which he had
expended the money. Editorial articles in
the Boston Daily Adtertiser, the New York
Evening /W, the Chrisi An Union and circu
lars were read and put in to show that Craft
had not been carrying on any secret work,
but that his plan was fully understood by
the public. The witness was closely inter
rogated in regard to the items of expendi
tures ou his place by Mr. Rogers; and on
recross-examination Mr. Lothrop followed
sharply in the same line, endeavoring to
show that the witness had mismanaged the
funds and had appropriated them for the
development of his own personal property
and not for the benefit of the school. The
inability of the witness to produce any
l>ooks or papers bearing upon this matter
was brought out in rather an unfavorable
light, showing carelessness, although of
course nothing criminal in itself. On the
whole Craft sustained his cross-examination
well.
Craft was upon the stand about fifteen
hours, and the attendants on the court heard
with pleasure the invitation to him to step
down. Mr. Rogers then read the deposition
of the Rev. R. F. Markham, of Savannah,
agent of the Methodist Missionary Society.
The deponent described a visit to Woodville
plantation, and his finding the school in
prosperous operation; that he had often
heard of the school, and never heard its ex
istence doubted except in communications
from Boston.
The hearing adjourned to ten o’clock this
morning.
Sctiuetzcn Society—Auotlier Festival.
At the meeting of the Sehuetzen Society
held last evening it was decided to have a
Summer Night’s Festival at the Park on the
16th July next, on whi .*h occasion the eagle
shooting, which was not finished at the
close of the recent Schuetzenfest, will be
resumed, and the king shot will be made,
followed by the coronation ceremonies.
The society also took some action in re
gard to increasing their efficiency in shoot
ing, and a roll was opened and numerously
signed by members who pledged themselves
to practice regularly once a month. This
will also include passive members.
No other business of interest was trans
acted.

REPORTS OF COMMITTEES ADOPTED.
The Finance. Committee, to whom was re
ferred the within petition of Edward C. Hollis,
asking that he be paid the sum of one thousand
dollars, being the amount recently awarded
him for a stnp of land, appropriated by the
city for drainage purposes, by a board of as
sessors mutually selected, beg to report that
they have had the same under most earnest
consideration, and as the result of their ex
amination into the merits of the claim, recom
mend that the prayer of the petitioner be not
granted for the following reasons:
First. That the city was not notified of the
meeting of the assessors, and therefore not
represented before them, which, as will appear
hereafter, was material, that the subject mat
ter submitted might be understood by the as
seasons.
Secondly. That when one of the assessors se
lected by the city asked that Mr. Hogg, survey
or. be called before the board to give certain
informat *on. Mr. Hollis' assessors at first ob
jected. and afterwards, when it was acceded to.
Mr. Hogg was never formally summoned, and
not getting a verbal message, the assessors
closed their labor without hearing his impor
tant testimony.
Thirdly. That more land was assigned the
city, and therefore charged for. than was neces
sary or required for the purposes of drainage.
fourthly. That by an oversight a small piece
of land previously deeded by Mr. Hollis to the
Coast Line Railroad Company was awarded to
and charged up to the city as part of land of
Mr. Hollis upon which the city bad been tres
passing.
Fifthly. That the price for the basis of the
award should have been the price of the land
to-day, not the basis of what it was in 1870 or
187!, because Mr. H“llis has continuously treat
ed the city as a trespasser, and only last year
obtained a judgment against the city for one
hundred and fifty-four dollars upon an action
for tresspass begun in 1874.
Sixthly. That whether the award be on basis
of value of 1870 or 1871, the amount of award
for 45-100 of an acre is excessive, in view of all
the circumstances of the case.
The committee, therefore, recommend, in
view of the above stated objections, that the
whole matter be committed to another board
of assessors, two of whom to lie selected by
Mr Hollis, two by the city, and the four so se
lected choosing a fifth assessor, the decision of
a majority of whom shall Lie final: both parties
to be representtd, and have the right to submit
testimony, oral or written, before the board,
and that upon Mr. Hollis’ acceptance of this
plan of adjustment, the Mayor or acting Mayor
Lie authorized to appoint the assessors for the
city. D. G. Purse,
Chairman Finance Committee.
The Finance Committee, to whom was re
ferred the within petition of John H. Ruwe,
asking relief from certain taxes imposed upon
him as onerous, beg to report that the praj’er
of the petitioner has had their most careful
consideration; but, failing to appreciate the
force of the reas« >ns assigned by the petitioner
for asking a revision of his various taxes, rec
ommend that his prayer be not granted.
D. G. Purse,
Chairman Finance Committee.
