AlarniM ol Fire—Incendiarism.
About a quarter to 1 o’clock yesterday
morning an alarm was sounded, apparently
from station No. 4 (Upper Cotton Press),
but afterwards ascertained to be from No.
41, corner of Drayton and New Houston
streets. The department responded prompt
ly, and, after the long run, arrived on the
ground to ascertain that the alarm had been
maliciously given. The box was wide open,
but no one was seen iu the vicinity and no
semblance of a lire could be discovered.
The firemen returned to their quarters
rather out of humor that they should have
been called out at such au hour uunecessa-
nly. They had, however, hardly settled
comfortably for a nap when another
alarm was sounded, which, owing
to some defect in the wires, was
given alternately from box six, five and
three. It seems, however, that the alarm was
turned in from station No. 0, at the gas
house, by Policeman Hall, about 2:30
o’clock, which was caused by the discovery
of fire issuing from a small unoccupied
building on Bay street, west of Habersham.
The firemen were soou on the ground, and
the flames were extinguished witfi
trifling damage. The building had for
merly been occupied as a barber shop, but
had been vacant for some time. Mr. E. F.
Neufville was agent for the property. An
attempt was made some time since to Are
the premises, but proved unsuccessful,
owing to its early discovery.
“And tbr Cireatewt of Tliese 1*
Charity.”
The accounts received of the terrible
plague iu Memphis are of the most heart
rending character, and are calculated to
awaken the most charitable emotions in
every breast. Whilst the contributions
throughout the country have been very
generous, yet the need of the aillicted peo
ple is indeed, and a further appeal to
the charity of thpsp more blessed is an im
perative necessity.
Savannah has responded nobly to the call
of the distressed, but the urgency is such
that her humanity, generosity and charity
must be further taxed. We have not a
doubt but that, remembering the terrible or
deal through which she passed two years
ago, she will not be found wanting.
As will be observed by the proceedings of
the specie) meeting of the Relief Committee,
held Saturday, s recanvass of the city hafc
been determined upon, a£ it is indispensable
that additional funds should ba raised to de
fray the expenses of the physicians and
nurses who have been dispatched on this
mission of mercy. Let a collection for this
purpose be taken up in the several churches
to-day, and let the response of our citizens
generally to the call of the Relief Commit
tee to-day be liberal. Much has been
given, but more is needed, and Savannah
owes it to herself to strain every effort to
relieve her distressed brethren of the infect
ed districts.
Savannah** Evening of Prayer.
ThcSavannah Christian Association, in con
junction with the various pastors in the city,
have issued a call for a general prayer
meeting, at the Baptist Cburen th’$
(Monday) evening, at eight o’clock. The
object of this meeting is to supplicate
the Almighty in belief .of the fever-stricken
cities of our land. It will be Je/J by one of
the pastors, and freely participaieu in by
others. All Christian people, irrespective of
denomination or creed, are earnestly request
ed to assembir at this hour and unite in their
petitions to Him wbosa word declares that
“the effectual,fervent prayef of tfte righteous
availeth much.” It is further request*** that
those Providentially hindered from attend
ing will, from their homes or places of
business, lift up their hearts to the Almighty-
loving Father, wt*oiq ten thousand joyful
experiences confirm as the ‘Bearer and An
swerer of Prayer.”
Dispute About a Debt.
On Saturday afternoon, about half-past
five o’clock, a difficulty occurred near the
corner of Bryan and West Broad streets be
tween Mr. J. E. Miller, a resident of
Seri veil county, and Mr. Cohen, when Ser
geant Killouhry was called upon to arrest
the former. It appears that the difficulty
originated about an unsettled bill of Mr.
Miller for a buggy purchased from Mr.
Cohen. Subsequently Mr. Miller was
turned over by the police on a warrant
issued from Magistrate Hart’s office, and he
was then released on bonds to keep the
peace, and left for home yesterday.

The Condition of Rev. Dr. Landrum
The many friends of Rev. Dr. Landrum and
wife, who are both at present down with
the yellow fever in Memphis, will be
pleased to learn that there are hopes of their
recovery. Mr. George Landrum left Macon
on Thursday last for Memphis, and the fol
lowing dispatch was received by a relative
in this city from him Saturday night:
“Father’s fever is abating. Mother is
sleeping. Both are relieved greatly ge.e-
iug me. With good nursing I have great
hopes of the recovery of both.”

That genial gentleman, Mr. Robt. Saussy,

cart, blanche to travel over the Eastern and
Northwestern States from now until Christ
mas. We would not insist on his traveling
from Maine to Texas, Out from Maine to
Minnesota would cover the field.

Savannah Amateur Dramatic Club.
This evening the Savannah Amateur
Dramatic Club give an entertainment at
Masonic Temple for the benefit of the
yellow fever sufferers. This club is composed
of respectable colored persons, who have de
voted their leisure time to studying the
drama. Some months since they gave a
performance, their first effort, and acquitted
themselves creditably. Since then they
have, we understand, been under efficient and
competent instruction, and the rehearsals
for the entertainment under notice, It is said,
have been more than satisfactory. A very
excellent programme hasbt^n selected, anil
there is reason to believe the entertainment
will afford much enjoyment. A portion of
the hall will be reserved exclusively for
white patrons.
The performance will commence with a
two act comedy entitled “Jealousy,” fol
lowed by an olio, including an ethiopian
sketch, “ The Old Log Cabin in the Lane,”
and will close with the farce, “ Handy
Andy; or, the Clumsy Servant.” Remem
ber, the entertainment is for the benefit of
the yellow fever sufferers, and the general
amdtsslbn is only fifty cents. The Savannah
Volunteer Guardfe' Band have volunteered
for the occasion, and will play a number of
popular airs.

THE ENNIS BROTHERS.
Marshal Audersou on the Ground —
A Card from the “Alleged Viola
tor*.”
From the Telegraph and Messenger of yes
terday we extract the following in reference
to the recent fatal disturbance in Hancock
county, of which an account has already
been published in the Morning News. The
following is a communication addressed by
the Ennis brothers to our contemporary, and
gives their version of the affair :
* * * One of the subscribers, P. T.
Ennis, run a still for Mr. W. E. Hagood last
year, the same being registered iu Hagooil’s
name and belonging to Mr. Hagood. We
were to go halves, making onlv sixty gal
lons of brandy in all. p. T. Ennis took the
brandy in charge and made the returns in,
Hagood’s name, as he could not attend to^
it at that time.
W. J. White, Deputy Collector of the
Third district of Georgia, wrote for a gauger,
and none came. I wrote Wilson once for a
gauger, and none came. I waited until De
cember, when I sold forty gallons of the
brandy to one Jule Cummings. This brings
my brother, E. A. Ennis, into it, when he
only carried an order from me to Cummings.
This I will swear to. He had nothing else
to do with the matter.
We have offered to pay all taxes and all
expenses attending the transaction since
that time, but they told us that we would
“have to stand a trial.” This we refused
to do, because it was their fault and not
ours that the taxes, etc., were not paid.
We ask you now as men of Georgia to
make a self-case of this, and ask yourselves,
and let the people ask, “Who is right and
who is wrong?’’ All we can now say is that
God will give justice to all men. Hoping
that you will give this a place iu vour col
umns, we are, yours truly, P. T. Ennis,
E. A. Ennis.
P. T. ENNIS’ STATEMENT.
September 11, 1S78.—Editor Old Capital:
Sir—Not knowing how the matter may be
told you in regard to the difficulty that oc
curred at my house last night, I write you
the following statement:
About dark a party of men came to my
gate and hailed. Chapell Russell, a darkey
in my employment, went to the gate to see
who it was. Myself and family, together
with my brother and Miss Zilfaar Blizzard,
were sitting at the table in the kitchen eat
ing supper. The men asked “did Mr. En
nis live there)'” and Chapell answered that
he did. They then said, “Tell Mr. Ennis to
come out,” as they wanted to see him. The
servant came back at once, followed by two
or three men, and told me there were some
gentlemen Jhere who wanted to see me. I
put my little girl down off my lap and step
ping to the door one of the men asked me
if that was Mr. Ennis? I replied that it
was, and he immediately drew his pistol
and fired at my head, the powder
burning my face and eyes. Iu the mean
time I and iny brother picked up our guns
and fired at him before he could repeat his
shot. They ran around the kitchen, and it
being a log house without the cracks being
stopped, oue or two of them halted and
fired at me again through the cracks. We
theu went into the yard and continued
firing till they were out of sight. We fired
seven times iu all, using two double-
barrelled guns and firing three times with a
pistol. I and my brother left the yard, and
reloading our guns, could have killed the
party, but would not use the advantage we
had of them, as it never has been our in
tention to hurt anybody, but rather to keep
out of the way.
Please publish this statement, and ask
your brother editors throughout the State
to do the same. Yours truly,
P: T. Ennis.
ANOTHER CARD.
Editor Old Capital: My attention has been
called to an article in the Macon Telegraph
of the 12th inst., bearing on the difficulty
between my sous and the Lumsden party, in
which these misstatements occur, and 1 ask
through your paper that the Macou paper
correct them, to-wit;
“Deputy Marshal Lumsden has made three
visits to the locality, and on one visit arrest
ed one of the Enuis brothers, but was defied
by him, and told that if he wanted him he
would like to see him take him off. These
facts were communicated to the authorities
in Savannah,” etc.
Now, Mr. Lumsden has never arrested one
of my sons, and it has never been their in
tention to hurt any one if let alone, and
they had already sent a letter to Savannah
offering to settle their case, when they were
attacked on the night of thfe IQth.
Again speaking of the attack on my sons’
house, the Macou Telegraph says;
“Mr. Kimbrew said ‘good evening,’ and
as the word6 escaped his lips the man stand
ing iu the door jerked a gun from the inside
of the house and fired both barrels into
Kimbrew, who was not ten feet distant.”
The above is a statement of Laney, who
was one of the participants. There are two
sides of the affair. My sous are peaceable
men—bear that reputation—and I have it
from them that the Marshal’s party fired
first, the deceased man, Kimbrew, firiug a
pistol 60 close to P. T. Ennis’ face that the
nowder blinded him for a time. I hope the
Macon paper will give my sons the benefit
of this correction. P. M. Ennis.
THE RAID ON THE ENNIS BROTHERS.
Much interest was manifested in the
movements of Chief Deputy Marshal J. W.
Anderson in regard to the revenue offen
ders in Hancock county.
Capt. Amlerson left Saturday on the early
train for Milledgevillc, and there organized
a posse of thirty men of the best citizens of
the county of Baldwin, and proceeded to
the country after the Euuis brothers.
Mar>hal Amlerson is a brave anil deter
mined gentleman, fearless in the discharge
of his duty, ana will spare no effort to
bring the offenders to justice. We were
fully informed as to the course matters
would take day before yesterday. For very
apparent reasons in behalf of propriety and
justice we made no publication of it. The
Marshal had a posse of thirty organized. It
seems, hnweyel*, that only twenty were em
ployed in the operations.
Hail he failed to have made up a posse in
Milledgeville oue would have been easily
furnished here. Arrangements had been
made to make up the saiue from volunteers
from our volunteer companies, notably the
Volunteers, and the party would have been
under the command of Captain W. W.
Carnes.
Note* from ITIeiufiiils — Tlie Creole
Treatment lor the Fever.
From a private letter received Saturday
from Mr. C. C. Rankin, of Savannah, now
in charge of the Commissary Department at
Memphis, and doin^ n;«;st efficient service,
we make the following extracts as of in
terest :
“ Eight Sisters of Mercy and seven priests
have died since the epidemic becan, also
eight or nine doctors. * * * The Howards
have twelve hundred nurses at work, besides
the number employed by other societies.
* * * Four thousand persons are down
with fever, two-thirds white and one-third
colored. * * * The fever is slowly de
creasing- and the weather cool. * * *
Mr. Splaln, one ol the volunteer nurses
from Savannah, Is now nearly well.”
Mr. Rankin enclosed In the letter referred
to a copy of the Creole treatment of yellow
fever, indorsed by several of the best phy
sicians Qf Memphis, and practiced by some
of them. It is printed in circular form and
distributed by the Howard Association of
Memphis. We publish it as a matter of In
terest :
1. If the patient be taken with fever im
mediately (one or two hours) after a meal,
give au ewetje of mustard, salt and warm
water, oho teaspoonful each of toruiec to
tumbler of salt.
2. If the patient has eaten more than
three hours previously, give a dose of castor
oil. If tlie attack commences with irritable

ten grains each for adults.
3. If the skin is dry, give hot foot baths
repeatedly, until perspiration is induced.
4. If the skin i® very hot, whether dry or
moist, sponge the arms, breast and legs
under the covering with whisky and water
frequently.
5. The first night of attack give an injec

Seut to the ifcowpital.
On Saturday morning, about one o’clock, a
young man named Frank Campbell, former
ly a constable, met with a very serious acci
dent. Whilst preparing to fix a place to
sleep in the store room at the rear of Magis
trate Abrams’ office, he accidentally pulled
qvejr a large counter, which fell upon him {
prufehing him Iq the fioor. The entire
weight of the counter was upon his right leg,
and fractured It severely. He was unable
to move, but his cries for assistance at
tracted the attention of Policeman
Fleming, who hastened to the warehouse
aud relieved the unfortunate young man
from his painful position. It was found
ospit&l.
We understand that amputation will proba
bly be required, aud that the Gon'dluoti of
the young man is considered very critical.

Savannah Pliyulclan* olT for .Tiem-
phl*.
Dr. J. T. McFariand left Saturday eve
ning for Memphis, and lqst evening Dr.
William Duncan and Dr, Easton Yonge,
with three nurses, followed for the
same point. These gentlemen, who rank
so high In the medical profession of
our city, and who are numbered among
our most esteemed fellow citizens, will be
accompanied by the earnest prayers of the
entire community in their laborof mercy in
the plague-stricken city of Memphis. Their
experience and skill will be of incalculable
benefit, as all three are noted for their
successful treatment of the disease
in this city in 1876. Dr. McFar
land was one of the first physicians
who left for Fernandina during the epidemic
at that place, and his heroic conduct there
will not soon be forgotten.
We know of no higher type of bravery than
that exemplified iu facing tlie monster death
in the insidious form of yellow fever. Those
who would walk to the cannon’s mouth and
lift the laurels of immortality from death's
outstretched hands, shrink and quail when
pestilence walks about the streets, and
those who are most daring in deeds of valor,
fly when the seals are broken which hold
back the wasting powers of disease, The
promptness therefore with which these
physiclaus have responded to the appeal
for their services, at great personal sacrifice
and danger, is a crown of glory unto them.
We most earnestly hope that they may
pass safely through the epidemic and
return to Savannah whey, ttye dread trial ia
over, and receive the warmest welcome from
their many friends.
Savannah is already represented in Mem
phis by Dr. L. A. Cheves and Dr. B. F. Shef-
tall, who are doing excellent service, and in
Vicksburg by Dr. H. Bunz and Dr. W. F.
Brunner.
Savannah Branch ol the G, S. P. C, A.
A r meeting for organisation of the‘Georgia
Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to
Animals is to be held at the Metropolitan
Hall, on Thursday evening next, September
19, and from all appearances promises to be
a grand success. On account of the annoy
ances occasioned at public meetings by unin
terested parties, thereby delaying the trans;
action or business, it has been decided to
make this meeting a private affair, none ad
mitted but enlisted members and invited
guests. A general desire is felt to be pres
ent at the meeting and we would impress it
Upon those who may be fortunate to
receive au mvifatlon, the importance
of their attending. The majority
of our citizens have long since found the
necessity of having such organization in our
city, and are determined to do their utmost
towards the establishment of this society
here. Our people are known for their be
nevolence, and it is needless to say that
nothing will be lacking on their part for the
encouragement of the enterprise. Our city
fathers have shown their appreciation by
passing laws to aid the society, and it seems
that everything points to a grand triumph
of our branch. A delegation from Augusta
will be present at the meeting.
Mr. Nathan K. Platshek, a young man of
great promise, whose connection with the
cause is widely known, deserves the highest
praise for the excellent manner in which he
lias wolked up the affairs of the proposed
branch. His laudable'efforts have won the
heartiest commendation of our community.
Let every one who is invited attend and
those desire to enlist be present.
Two Bodie* on Long Inland.
The Coroper has received information
that the bodies of two white men, one in a
greatly decomposed condition, have been
washed ashore in the marsh on Long Island,
near Fort Pulaski. Mention was made of
the discovery of one of these bodies in Sat
urday's News. It is supposed to be that of
Robert Martin, who was drowned by falling
from the City of Bridgeton some time since.
The other is believed to be the body of a
sailor belonging to a schooner Ivin" at
quarantine last who fell from”the
masthead whilst at work.
Coroner Chisholm has made arraugements
to investigate these eases.
First African BaptlstTCharcfa.
At a regular conference of the First Afri
can Baptist Church (Franklin square) held
yesterday afternoon, Rev. George Gibbons
was called to the pastoral charge. This
colored minister was formerly the body ser
vant of the Telfairs, and it will be remem
bered was one of the legatees in the will of
the last member of that family. He is a
worthy man, and we understand that the
congregation are very anxious to secure his
services.
Board of Surrey.
A survey was held on the brig Lewis
Clarke by Port Wardens Laird and Van Horn,
Captain H. F. Willink, master ship carpen
ter, and Harbor Master Myers, at 3 o’clock
Saturday afternoon. They recommend that
the ves«il be immediately repaired.
A survey ivas also held about the *ame
time on the schooner Ward J. Parks, and a
recommendation made that her cargo be dis
charged for further examination.
Delicious Cookery.
The most delicious, light, white and
wholesome biscuits, rolls, muffins, waffles,
corn bread, cake, etc., are possible to every
table by using the celebrated Dooley’s
Yeast Powder. It is absolutely pure, and
will go much further in use than othei*
kinds of baking powder. It is impossible
to fail ^yjth it in poking. Ask your grocer
for it, and do not be put off with any
other..
THE OCEAN BEACH.
Tlie Late Storm at Tybee—No Damage
to tbe Houses—So met fling Needing
Attention.
A number of gentlemen interested in
Tybee Island made a visit to that point yester
day in the steamer Eureka to ascertain
what damage was done by the storm on
Wednesday night. It was thought from
the telegraphic report at the time that the
sea had flooded “Beacon Pond,” but it ap
pears that the water only came as far as
the “Little Light,” and did no damage in
that direction or in fact elsewhere. Near
Mr. A. 8. Bacon's house, where a wagon road
had been made through the sand hills, the
tide forced its way and flooded as far as Mr.
Neufville’s house, the water, however, not
reaching the dwellings. Near the dancing
pavilion of the Ocean House another wagon
cut afforded the sea an ingress, and the
water came to the eastern end of the shed.
The b8th houses of the hotel north of this
point were dashed to pieces by the waves,
while those to the south of it were tossed
out of position. On the river side of the
island no damage was done, though the
residents report the storm as terrific. While
that part of the island used as our summer
resort is somewhat improved by these an
nual gales, the United States reservations
for the light houses and for the new fort
are being encroached upon, and un
less a breakwater is erected on the
northeast end there will eventually be en
tailed a loss of many acres of ground to the
government.
Sixteen years ago the old “Little Light”
on Tybee was inside of the sand hills, now
its foundations can just be 6ecn at low
water. This matter is worthy of the atten
tion of our Chamber of Commerce and
Commissioners of Pilotage, as the continued
washing away of this end of the island
must inevitably affect our bar channel.

l*r»mpi Reform of Bodily Evil*.
Tlie prompt reform of those bodily evils, en
feebled digestion, incomplete assimilation, in
activity of the liver, kidneys and bladder, as
well as of the nervous symptoms which these
ailments are especially prone to beget, is al
ways accomplished by the use of Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters, a medicine accredited by
physicians, pronounced pure by analysts, and
eminently wholesome aud agreeable. Surely
such a restorative is preferable to unpalatable
and indigestb le mineral drugs and unsanc
tioned nostrums. The nation at large assur
edly thinks so. judging by the unprecedented
demand for the article from Maine to the
Pacific, a demand now supplemented by im
mense orders for it received from tropical
America, Mexico, the British and Spanish Colo
nial possessions, and elsewhere. Both at home
and abroad it Ls recognized as a standard reme
dy and preventive, tlie decisiveness of its ef
fects recommending it everywhere.

Dr. M. W. CASE’S
Liver Remedy
BLOOD PURIFIER
Tonic andjDordial.
This is not a patent medicine, but is prepared
under the direction of Dr. M. W. Case, from his
favorite prescription, which in an extensive
practice of over twenty-seven years he has found
most effective in all cases of disordered liver or
impure blood. It is
ANTI-BILIOUS.
It acts directly upon the liver, restoring it
when diseased to its normal condition; and in j
regulating the activity of this great gland every
other organ of tlie system is benefited. In Blooa
Diseases it has no equal os a purifier. It im
proves digestion, and assists nature to eliminate
all impurities from the system; and while it is
the cheapest medicine in the market, it is also
superior to all known remedies. While it is
more effectual than Blue Mass, it is mild and
perfectly safe, containing nothing that can in the
slightest degree injure the system. It does not
sicken or give pain; neither does it weaken the
patient, nor leave the system Oonstipated, as do
most other medicines.
It Cures
lirnflnt-he, S|i k llrauachc, W ater-Brniih,
Heartburn, Melt Stomach, Jaundice,
Colic, Vertigo. Neuralgia, Palpitation of
the Heart, Female Irregularities and
Weakness, all Skin and Blood Diseases,
Worms, Fever and Ague, and Constipa
tion of the Bowels.
In small dose-4 It is also it fort cure for
Chronic Diarrhoea.

IT IS POOR POLICY
For any retail merchant to «*ll inferior
. goods because he can make
more money on them.
Instead of trying to find the cheapest,
that can be bought, he should a'.wu} s
select THE BEST in the murkvl.
We know of no business anywhere, in the
city or country, that would not aooner F.eome
permanently established, and In the long run
pay better, by handling only fair and honest
goods. To be sure, custom may for a while
be allured by low prices into the purchase
of Inferior and adulterated articles; many
evefl take up with short weight and other
swindling; but. time rights *11 these
things,and nothing is more certain than that
HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY
MEN 1)0 BUSINESS
TO MAKE MONEY!
Tie surest way to aceemplish this Is to
build up i permanent trade.
Tlis can not te mccffiffilf (to

It is only by keeping the best atHrt-s of ilieir
kind, even if they do not pay tho largest
immediate profit, that a permanent business
is built up. Keep tho best soap, the best
starch, the best spices, tho best baking jowder.
and so pn through the whole list. We have
known a grocer to lose a customer whoso
trade was worth a hundred and fifty dollars*
a year clear profit to him, just because ho
would not supply a baking powder that was
demanded by the best trade.

It is a first-class article, will d«» all wo

to work WELL.
It is a credit to any merchant’s stock, and ls
one of the few good things he caa confidently
recommend to every customer. It will sell
itself after one trial, for Its great merits are
soon appreciated. And not only so. but one
lady using it will tell others of the wonderful
propones of Sea Foam, and where it can be
purchased, and so the tide of trade will
gradually but surely set toward the enterpris
ing grocer who keeps it in siock. Actually,
the ladies of Georgia where Sea Fo.yx has
been introduced, are noted for making better
bread, biscuit, corn cakes, and other cookery
than can be found anywhere else, and they
give $ea Foam the credit, and won’t use any
other baking preparation. And it is not to be:
