Molina Sc Delannoy.
The store at the corner of Bull and State
streets has recently been thoroughly im
proved and renovated and fitted up as a
first class cigar and tobacco emporium by
Messrs. Molina Sc Delanncy, two worthy and
energetic young men, who number their
friends by the score. They have now un
doubtedly one of the neatest establishments
of the kind to be found in the State, and
have it supplied with a very superior stock
of imported Key West and domestic ci
gars, cigarettes and cigarette papers, and
an unusually fine line of pipes, meerschaum
and wood, and smoker’s goods generally. In
fact, there is nothing lacking in their stock
that the lover of the fragrant weed could
desire. Their facilities are such that they
are enabled to offer great inducements to
the wholesale as y/ell as retail trade, and
we are sure that those who patronize them
will be satisfied and pleased iu every re
spect. The senior of the firm, “Our
Frank,” is well known for his unvary
ing urbanity, his energy and en
terprise, and deserves all the success that
rewards merit, and all the smiles that gcod
fortune can bestow. In his partner, Mr.
Delannoy, he has not only an efficient co
laborer, bjit a genial, worthy young gentle
man, who is highly esteemed by all who
know him. As a firm, they deserve to do
well, and we are sure they will, as they offer
an excellent stock, and are determined to
please their friends and the public gener
ally. Head their advertisement and give
them a call.
Agricultural Implements.
Messrs. Palmer Bros., numbered among the
most extensive dealers in hardware and agri
cultural implements in the South, have now
on hand a very large stock of everything in
their line. The enlarged experience of the
firm has enabled them to select just sjjch
goods as are needed in this bailiwick, and
their stock, large and varied, embracing
every description of goods, is an evidence of
their good judgment. In the line of ag
ricultural implements they can supply
every article, and our friends from the
interior, who desire anything from a thresh
ing machine to a garden hoe, will find that
they cab .be accommodated at this establish
ment. They aisp have a very superior as
sortment of fine Bnglieli cutlery, English
and American firearms, and sporting goods
generally. The firm are popular through
out this section, and known for their
courtesy and liberality, aud Major Jordan
F. Brooks, Mr. Harry W. Palmer and Mr.
Herbert W. Palmer, constitute a corps that
cannot b*, excelled, aud with whom it is a
pleasure to cleat.
“ Fighting a Hurricane.”
The German bark Joseph Rauers, Captain
Krause, from Bremen, arrived here yester
day morning. The Captain reports that on
the morning of the 29th of August, wjien
about one hundred and fifty miles northeast
of Bermuda, he encountered a terrific hur
ricane, aud had a hard fight to weather the
gale, having run into the centre of it. He was
obliged to cut away the main topmast to
keep from capsizing, as the butwarks were
under water, which was also over the
batches. In falling, the mainmast carried
away the foretop gallant and mizzen top
masts. Every sail \yas furled and secured,
but so violent was the hurricane that
they were blow’n from the yards.
4fter the masts went over the ship right
ed, autf after a terrible ordeal managed to
ride successfully into a safe harbor.
CapL Krause* also reports seeing a bark
in the' same locality, with Uihfntopmast
gone, steering east7/. ar d.

As has been stated in the Morning News,
proposals were advertised for some time since
for constructing a submerged dam in the
Savannah river at the cross tides, northwest
ern extremity of Hutchinson’6 Island. This
is an improvement that has long been de
sired in our river, and after careful survey
and favorable reports by the government
officers, it was determined to let the work out
by contract. The time allotted for present
ing these proposals having expired, the
bids received were opened at New
York city on the 5th instant by General Q.
A. Gillmore, Chief of the Corps of Engi
neers. The advertisement called for bids
per lineal foot for apron foundation, guar
anteeing its stability twelve months after
completion, for apron foundation without
guarantee (per lineal foot), for timber and
brush of superstructure per cubic yard, and
for riprap 6tone superstructure per cubic
yard.
Bids were received from the fol
lowing named parties: Francis A.
Page, New York city ; Cassidy
Sc Ross, Wilmington, N. C.; David V. How
ell, New York city; John K. Russell, Brook
lyn, N. Y.; Brady <fc Doran, Brooklyn, N. Y.;
David Sutherland, Savannah, Ga.; Thomas
Houlihan, Savannah, Ga.; Brott A Norris,
Washington, D. C.; Ingerson Sc Malthrup,
New London, Conn.; Eder A Eder, Bridge-
water, N. Y.; Walter Doty, Fort Edwards,
N. Y.; Franklin B. Colton, Philadelphia; F.
D. Van Wagener, Fulton, N. Y.; J. L. John
son, Fulton, N. Y.
The two latter were received by mail
too late for consideration. The bids
of Brott A Norris, Ingerson Sc Mal
thrup, Eder A Eder, Walter Doty and
Franklin B. Colton were on a plan of their
own which was not regarded as being suffi
ciently strong and were therefore rejected.
The contract w’as awarded to David V.
Howell, of New York city, the lowest bid
der on the official plan, at the following, to-
wit: For apron foundation, guaranteeing its
stability for twelve months, at $10 82 per
lineal foot; for apron foundation without
guarantee, at $9 67 per lineal foot,
for lumber and brush for superstructure,
per cubic yard $3 27; for riprap stone for
superstructure, per cubic yard $2 50.
We understand that w'ork upon this jetty
or dam will be commenced without delay.
Its completion will be of vast benefit to our
river and to the channel, the diversion
from Back river greatly increasing the
volume of water, and giving us a deeper
water front at the wharves, and better chan
nel at the wrecks and other shallow points
on the river.

the expectation of many in the audience.

encores. The performance concluded with
a sketch entitled “ Handy Andy,” in which
T. E. Ferrebee and T. Wade appeared, and
created considerable amusement.
A Deserved Tribute.
The Memphis Avalanche of the 15th con
tains the following tribute to the memory of
Mr Herbert S. Landrum, so util and popu
larly known in this city, where he has rela
tives and many friends:
“After a few days of painful illness,
Herbert S. Landrum, for several years city
editor of the Avalanche, breathed his last at
the residence of his father, Rev. S. Land
rum, about twelve o’clock Wednesday
night. Scarce attainefi to manhood, he had
reached a point in a career of usefulness of
which many w'hose heads are w hite with
the frost of years might well feel proud.
Warm hearted, open handed, firm in
his feelings of friendship, a dutiful and
affectionate son, he was the pride of his
parents and the favorite among his associ
ates. During the prevalence of the fever,
until himself laid upon a sick bed,
he followed fae promptings of his noble
uature in administering to the relief of the
sick and assisting in the general work of re
lief by every means in his power. Followed
by a few friends, his father and mother be
ing confined to beds of sickness, re
mains w’ere yesterday laid at rest in Elm
wood, under the shadow' of an evergreen.”

at wharf foot of DraytQB street for steamer
City of Bridgeton. M
During the past several months mention
has been made from time to time in the
Morning News of various robberies and
thefts, some of which have been remarkable
for the boldness that has characterized
the operations of the festive marauders.
Efforts have been made in several
cases to apprehend the perpetrators, bat
to no avail, and the sufferers have been com
pelled to submit to their losses calmly. It
was believed, however, that the majori
ty of these robberies were planned and
executed by a well organized gang,
who had secured a good and safe place for
their plunder until such time as they were
enabled to dispose of it without danger.
Acting under this impression, Constable
Wetherhorn and Deputy Sheriff Naughtin
have for some time past been quietly “work
ing up” a case against a gang of negroes
whom they strongly suspected of know
ing considerable about several recent rob
beries, and who were believed to be
still plying their “profession.” For
weeks their efforts were unrewarded,
but they resolutely stuck to the trail,
and as perseverance always wins, they
Yvere on Saturday last favored with success.
Following their cue, these efficient officers,
about 3 o’clock in the morning, arrested
George Singleton and Samuel Green, a brace
of enterprising negro burglars, chiefs of
the gang, just as they were about de
parting with some of their plunder for that
“ paradise ” of negro Georgia thieves, across
the Savannah river. The parties were in a
boat at the time they were arrested, and a
feYv minutes later would, at least for the
present, have been beyond the reach of the
officers. Upon investigation the boat was
found to have been stolen, and was re
turned to the proper owner. The worthy
pair were carried before Magistrate Abrams,
when, finding that the officers had the
“dead wood” on them, so to speak, they
made a frank and full confession, and were
thereupon committed to jail to await further
disposition. Among the places these
burglars acknowledged that they and their
gang had entered and robbed were the fol-
loYving:
A. Friedenberg A Co. were relieved of
eight tubs of lard.
X. Marks A Co., St. Julian street, of a lot
of clothing.
A colored cobbler, on Bay street, of a

Dorsett A Kennedy, Bay street, of three
boxes of tobacco and two guns.
Jacob Miller, Esq., South Broad street,
near Whitaker, a lot of wearing apparel.
Tiney Thompson, a coat, hat and key.
The above were all burglaries, the places
having been forced and entered. In addi
tion to these, Singleton and Green confessed
to the following robberies : A watch aud
vest, from Willie Craft; a tub of lard and
two dozen head of cabbage, from the sloop
Quickstep, at the Market dock ; a watch,
from Pompey Reilly, colored; a watch and
pistol, from Abram Brown, colored; the
sum of $25, which was cut out of the pocket
of the coat of Captain Brown, OYvner and
commander of a small coaster; from Cun
ningham A Hughes, Bay street, one anchor.
It appears that these articles Yvere all car
ried over to South Carolina by the thieves,
where they were sold at good prices, the
gang doing a pretty lively business. The
officers deserve great credit for arresting
these negroes,who it seems have been pecu
liarly successful in their operations. It is
necessary, however, that they should be
prosecuted. Magistrate Abrams particu
larly desires that the parties mentioned as
among the victims come forward and prose
cute them in order that the full penalty of
the law may be meted out.
Weekly Weatlier Chronicle.
We have received from the Signal Ob
server the following general summary of
the weather for the week ending Saturday,
September 14:
On Friday noon, the 6th, the following
telegram was received from Key West :
“Santiago this morning says Thursday’s hur
ricane vortex probably passed to right,
about 4 o’clock this morning,” und Satur
day’s reports from Key West showed the
vortex to be east of that station, probably
moving nortlnvard or northwestward. At
Key West a gale prevailed from the north,
backing to northwest, with light rain;
falling barometer, northaest to southeast
winds and rain continued in the South At

the storm centre moved northward from
Georgia to the Virginias: morning of the 13th
it Y\as over the Lower Lakes and raoyed
thence northeastward; very heavy rains ac
companied its centre, and severe southeast
gales occurred on the North Carolina coast;
reports are to haud of “tornadoes” in North
Carolina, and a very high tide in Chesapeake
Bay. From Saturday to Tuesday an area of
low pressure passed eastward over the
northern section of the country from the
Northwest to the J ake region aw} Canada,

The Donation ot tlie Workingmen
of Savannah.
We mentioned 6ome days since that the
Workingmen’s Benevolent Association of
Savannah had appropriated the handsome
sum of two hundred dollars for the relief of
the families and orphans of the Screwmen’s
Benevolent Association of New Orleans.
This sum has been received by the New
Orleans workingmen, as will be seen from
the following resolution adopted by them
at a meeting ^held at their hall on the 9th
instant; ' , .
Resolved, That the Scrgwmen's Benevolent
Association of New Oi leans beg to tender
to the Workingmen’s Association of Savan
nah, Ga.. their grateful acknowledgment
of the donation of two hundred dollars, re-
ceiY’ed from them through the Hon. Ed.
Pilsbury, Mayor of New Orleans, and pray
that an All-wise Providence who is afflict
ing our people will, in His mercy, spare
our friends in Savannah from this great
scourge.
TWO NOTED GRAVE ROBBERS.
Our readers will remember the account
given in these columns of the robbing of
the grave of the Hon. Scott Harrison, in
Ohio, last May, the body being found in the
dissecting room of the Ohio Medical Col
lege. Public indignation justly brands any
man as a scoundrel who will rob the grave
of the dead. But there are two noted
grave robbers in the country, so far from
being the subjects of the people’s wrath,
£1*0 universally lauded for their virtues.
The reason is plain. "VV hile the former
class steal the dead bodies or our loved ones
to submit them to the dissecting knife,
these only the grave to restore the liv
ing victims to our hearts and homes. Their
names—Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Dis
covery and Pleasant Purgative Pellets—are
household words the world over. The Gol
den Medical Discovery cures consumption,
in its early stages, and all bronchial, throat,
and lung affections. Pleasant Purgative
Pellets are the most valuable laxative aud
cathartic. 6epl7-Tu<fcwlt

Bodies on Long Island—Inquest.
Yesterday morning Coroner Chisholm left
the city on a tug boat for Long Island, near
Fort Pulaski, carryiug with him a jury, for
the purpose of holding an inquest on the
bodies of the two white men reported to
have been washed ashore at that point.
Upon reaching the scene it was found that
the bodies were so decomposed as to be
beyond recognition, and to protect them
from vultures had, as a note received
by Mr. Mac Pittman, custom house
inspecting officer, the preceding night,
from the Ordnance Sergeant at the
fort, been covered up with
weeds. From the apparel and the circum
stances of the finding, it was supposed, as
has already been stated, that one was the
body of Robert Martin, of Beaufort, who
was drowned on Sunday night, August —,
by falling from the City of BridgetOD, on a
trip from that place to this city. The other
was believed to be the body of a sailor who
fell overboard some time last week from a
vessel lying at quarantine.
The Coroner had taken coffins and an un
dertaker with him, and the bodies were
decently interred. The verdict of the jury
in each case was death from accidental
drowning.
A gentleman from Port Royal, however,
informs us that the body of Mr. Martin, who
was droYY-ned off the City of Bridgeton some
time since, was recovered and was buried at
Beaufort. He says that when the news of
Mr. M.’s death reached his home a number
of negroes manned a boat and came to Sa
vannah, and, after a dav’s dragging, found
the body and took it direct to Beaufort,
where, as stated above, it was decently in
terred. If this statement is correct, the
body found on Long Island is that of an
other person.
First Africau Baptist Church.
In yesterday's News appeared a notice
that Rev. George Gibbons had been called
to the pastorate of the above named church
at a regular conference held on Sunday af
ternoon. This statement was made upon
information furnished by a responsible col
ored man and a prominent member of the
church. Yesterday morning we received a
communication signed “Members,” assert
ing that the publication was premature, and
that the majority of the members know
nothing of 6uch action.

Apolliiiari* Water.
The natural mineral water called ApoIIi-
naris comes from a German spring which
yields forty millions of bottles annually,
and its popularity is illustrated by the fact
that the consumption in Great Britain alone
has increased from three hundred thou
sand bottles in 1874 to five thousand in
1877, with a corresponding increase in the
United States and other countries. The
Mayor of Neuenahr, in whose district the
Apolliuaris spring is situated, certifies that
no artificial carbonic acid is used in bottling
the water, and Dr. Kyll, a Germau analytical
chemist, declares that “the natural car
bonic acid arising from the spring exists in
6uch an enormous quantity as Yvould make
the use of artificially manufactured car
bonic acid an absurdity.” It is, there
fore, established that this is au abso
lutely pure and wholesome mineral
water—whiefi cannot he said oj tbp manu
factured articles offered to the public. It
should be remembered by consumers that
it is vitally important to ascertain the real
quality of an article so largely consumed as
a mineral water. It is universally used, in
some form or other, by all classes of people,
the sick and the well, the rich and the poor;
and a careful analysis of the manufactured
articles would betray the presepepof chemi
cal ingredients noxious to the human sys
tem. This cannot he said of the Apollina-
ris, which is purely a natural product—and
nature makes no mistakes. We refer our
readers to the interesting statement of the
Apollinaris Company which appears in our
columns to-day.

APOLLIMIS COflPAJVY.
Our agents in the United States have trans
mitted to us an article which appeared in print
containing charges, made by a manufacturer
of artificial sparkling waters, against the Apol-
linaris Natural Mineral Water.
The article is plainly calculated to mislead:
even the heading, under the title of “United
States Assay Office,*' is intended to convey to
the public the erroneous impression that it is
an ocffiial document, while in reality it is en
tirely a private matter.
The'best evidence of this is that the govern
ment has taken no notice of it nor placed any
reliance in it: but on the contrary, allows the
4pollinaris \Y ater to imported as heretofore,
as a natural mineral water, free of duty, while
an artificial water is liable to a heavy duty,
which it would certainly be to the interest of
the government to collect.
Having, at a heavy outlay, obtained the sole
control of the Apollinaris Spring, which can
yearlv furnish forty million bottles, it would be
ridiculous to suppose that we would manufac
ture and export an artificial water at increased
expense where nature has so bountifully sup
plied an article which evidently is a serious
obstacle to the success of manufacturers of
inferior waters.
To show the growing popularity of the Apol
iinaris Water we would state that where in 1874
our sales in Great Britain amounted to three
hundred thousand bottles, in 1877 they were in
creased to five million bottles, and judging from
the steadily increasing demand for this water in
the United States its sale there will soon reach
these figures.
As a guarantee that the Apollinaris Water
shipped to the United States comes direct from
the spring, all invoices sent there bear the cer
tificate of the United States Consul.
To further refute the charges against the
Apolliuaris Natural Mineral Water, we quote
from certificates given us by some of the most
eminent authorities and chemists of Europe
who personally inspected and examined the
Apollinaris Spring on the sj>ot. which is the
only method of ascertaining whether the water
is natural or artificial
DR. mo KIR,
Medical Councillor and Professor at Bonn.
In consequence of communications received
from > ou I felt called upon to visit the Apol
linaris Spring, and examined everything there
most minutely. 1 have convinced myself the
spring yields such an enormous quantity of
water so highly impregnated with natural car
bonic acid as not to allow of any foreign water
or any artificial carbonic acid being used.
After an exhaustive investigation of thf-
spring and obtaining the most complete infor
mation, I declare the water as supplied to the
public from the spring to be purely natural in
every respect and of most excellent quality.
PROF. J. ALFRED WANKLTN,
St. George's Hospital. London, and Public Ana
lyst to the County of Buckingham.
I have visited and carefully examined the
Apollinaris Spring, near Neuenahr, in Rhenish
Prussia.
Tne carbonic acid impregnating the Apolli
naris Water is only the natural gas which be
longs to the water, and comes up with it to the
surface of the spring.
The Apollinaris Water, as supplied to the
public, is simply and purely a Natural Mineral
Water.
DR. OSCAR LIEBREICH,
Professor of Medicine at the University of Ber
lin and Director of the Pharmacological

I found at the Apollinaris Spring an extraor
dinary richness of natural carbonic acid rising
up with the water, and personally convinced
myself that all the water coming from said
spring is excessively impregnated with this
natural carbonic acid.
The Apollinaris. bottled according to all the
rules of science, is an entirely natural mineral
water.

artificially manufactured carbonic acid an ab
surdity.
I have po hesitation in declaring that, in rich
ness of carbonic acid, the Apollinaris Spring is
not approached by anj* other known German
Spring, and tliat it deserves in every respect
the name of au excellent naturally acidulated
water.
The United States Consul at Cologne, who
sent this report to the government, declares,
from h>s oyvh inspection, the Apollinaris Water x
as bottled, a natural product.
We trust the above will convince all that the Apollinaris sent to the United States is p. Natural
Mineral Water, and that they will place no reliance upon the false reports circulated by dealers
who are envious of our success.

Dr. M. W. CASE’S
Liver Remedy
AND m
BLOOD PURIFIER
Tonic and Cordial.
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
regulating the activity of this great gland every
other organ of the system is benefited. In Blood
Diseases it has no equal as 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 eff^Hhal than Blue Mass, it is mild and
perfectly safe, containing nothing that can in the
slightest degree injure the system. It does not
3icken or give pain; neither does it weaken the
patient, nor leave the system constipated, as do
most other medicines.
