Hartley Campbell 9 * Pinafore Troupe
A very fair audience assembled at the
Theatre last evening to greet Bartley Camp
bell’s Troupe m their presentation of the
charming comic opera H. M. S. Pinafore.
But for the disappointment experienced
from the performance by the Holman
Company we doubt not the building would
have been packed. Those who were present
and who had 6ecn the other troupe, were
unanimous in the opinion that the Campbell
Company is infinitely the superior in acting
and singing. The piece was not as hand
somely mounted, or the settings as fine a6
that of the Holman, but otherwise
there is no comparison, so much better was
the performance last evening than the one
given by the Holman. Everybody was
charmed, the audience were enthusiastic,
and the applause frequent and hearty, a de
cided contrast with the tame house that
witnessed the first presentation of “Pina
fore” in thisedty. lhe ladies were hand
somely an<l appropriately dressed, and the
“sisters and the cousins and the aunts”
notappearing in abbreviated skirts. The en
tire performance was capital, and highly
enjoyed, receiving an excellent “send off,”
as it were, in the clever presentation of the
charming comedietta, “The Happy Pair,”
in which Mr. Frank Drew and Miss Morti
mer appeared, and kept the audience con
vulsed with laughter.
Miss Eugenie Paul is a very pretty and
clever Josephine, with all the feminine airs
and graces which make a comedy actress so
attractive. Her voice is a very sweet so
prano, but is not strong. Miss Cicely CabaD-
nis, who represented “Hebe,” is a native of
Mobile, and has hut recently come on the
stage, but sue is a capital actress and a good
singer, and possesses a very pleasing face.
The favorite was Miss Estelle Mortimer, the
“Little Buttercup” of the piece. We ven
ture to say that she cannot be surpassed in
this character. Her voice is sweet and
strong and her acting most excellent. She
delighted her auditors 60 much that they
gave her an encore whenever she appeared.
“Sir Joseph Porter” was very will reprej
sented by Mr. Frank Drew, and “Dick Dead-
eye,” by Mr. W. Paul Brow n, was immense.
Mr. W. Al. Brown’s “Captain Corcoran” was
fair, the gentleman evidently beiDg at dis
advantage from a cold. Mr. Holland (“Bill
Bobstay”) received a heart}- encore for his
admirable singing of “He is an English
man,” which was well deserved. “Ralph”
was wall personated by Mr. W. Eckert, and
the chorus: s were .dl good. The company
give thtir farewell performance to-night.
or,ri tvhn wi«h in see “Pinafore” well
and those who wish to see
given should attend.
Personal.
Colonel Jones’ letter from Savannah to
the Macon Telajraph Jb Messenger contains
the following deserved tribute to our
esteemed and distinguished citizen and
divine:
“Dr. Arson ha6 been engaged for forty-
four years in bis ministerial labors, serving
two churches only (with the exception of a
few months when first licensed), during that
long period. Seventeen years did he bless
by his moving discourses, fervent prayers
and blameless walk the people of Old Mid
way Church, Liberty county, and for near
twenty-four years lias he been the beloved
and cherished pastor of the Independent
Presbyterian Church of this city, in whose
pulpit he still officiates. He is a man of
rare ability, but as meek as Moses, aud pos
sesses the peculiar faculty without ever
making a gesture of riveting the attention
of his auditory during every Sabbath in the
year. ..
‘ “None of his sermons are mediocre; all are
deeply interesting and replete with vital
piety aud scriptural illustrations. In narra
tion he excels anv one we ever saw in the
pulpit The doctor can tell the story of the
cross or the Prodigal Son with a pathos and
tenderness which subdues all hearts, and in
vests with new interest and a brighter halo
the sacred messages of holy writ. He is, in
short, a lovely cnemplis of his Lord and
.Master.”
The Wheaton House, I»Ie of Hope.
It will be observed by reference to our
advertising oolumus that there will be a
“second grand opening” of the Wheaton

celebrate their anniversary by a parade to
day and a ball at night.
A fractious cow created some commotion
in the crowd at the court house sales yester
day, but no one was injured.
There were a number of calls to inspec:
that wallet at Butler’s yesterday, but the
owner has not yet been discovered.
Some people who received bills yesterday
regarded the matter in the light of a joke,
but those who sent them are of a different
opinion.
Lewis Taylor, colored, for being drunk
aDd disorderly and striking Martha Butler,
colored, was fined yesterday by the Mayor
$3 or ten days in jail.
Judge Fleming, Hon. H. B. Tompkins,
Hon. R. E. Lester, P. W. Meldrim, Esq.,

bodies of excursionists to-day that have
gone from Savannah for a long time. They
seem to have anticipated every want—dinner,
refreshments and piano on board, au
elegant bouquet to be voted to the most-
popular young lady,and street cars awaiting
the party’s return.
We had the pleasure of a visit yesterday

The Ro*e Will Case—Verdict 1 it
Favor ol llic Widow.

closed at five miuutes past eleven o’clock
last night, when, after a charge from the
Judge, the matter was submitted to the

Naral Stores-Receipt* and Export*.
The new crop year having commenced
yesterday, we include in our market reports,
as a matter of general Interest, a table of
the receipts and exports for the past year,
with the actual count on hand, and also a
comparative statement. It will be observed
that Sayauuah has received 184,230 barrels of
rosin during the year.agaiust 156,01 J barrels
for the year previous, an increase of 2S,22g
barrels, and 38,880 barrels spirits turpentine,
against 24,732 barrels last year, an increase
of 8,148 barrels. The exports during this
year are 185,896 barrels rosin aud 32,472 bar
rels spirits turpentine, against 149,441 bar
rels rosin aud 24,308 ‘arrets spirits turpen
tine for the year previous, an increase
in the exports of 36,455 barrels rosin and
8,104 barrels spirits turpentine, in favor of
this year. Of these exports for this year
72,973 barrels rosin and 13,980 barrels spirits
went foreign, and 112,923 barrels rosin and
18 492 barrels spirits went coastwise, against
31,320 barrels rosin and 2,978 barrels spirits
which went foreign, and 118,121 barrels
rosin aud 21,390 barrels spirits coastwise the
year previous. These figures show that the
foreign export trade has largely increased,
while the trade to domestic ports has de
creased slightly.
The Uses of the Lemon.
A piece of lemon upon a corn will relieve
it in a day or 60. It should be renewed
night and morning. The free use of lemon-
juice and sugar will always rejieye a cough.
A lemon eaten before breakfast every day
for a week or two will entirely prevent the
feeling of lassitude peculiar to the approach
of spring. Perhaps its most valuable prop
erty is its absolute power of detecting any
of the injurious and even dangerous ingre
dients entering into the composition oi so
very many of the cosmetics and face pow
ders in the market. Every lady should sub
ject her toilet powder to this test. Place a
teaspoonful of the suspected powder In a
glass and add the juice of a lemon. If
effervescence takes place it is an infallible
effervescence takes p!
proof that the powder is dangerous, and its
use should be avoided, as it will ultimately
injure the skin and destroy the beauty of
the complexion.
The Savanuali auu Charleston Rail
road.
The Clerk of the Court of Common Pleas
at Charleston has received the written de
cree of Judge Hudson in the matter of the

per cent, per annum.
The Investigation Before the Jlayor
and Fire Committee— 1 Testimony-
Decision Reserved.
THE BANK ROBBERS IN CHAR
LESTON.
The postponed investigation into the case
of A. J. Franklin, Foreman of the Bartow
Fire Company, charged by Chief F. Frank
Blair with “ turning water on at a plue after
it was ordered shut off by the Chief Engi
neer of the 8avannah Fire Department, 3:20
a. m., March 22d, 1879,” took place last
evening at 8 o’clock, in the Council Cham
ber, before the Mayor and Fire Committee.
The firemen and their friends have been
considerably excited over the matter, and
there was in consequence a very large crowd
present, the Council Chamber being well
filled.
The prosecution was represented by Hon
Wm. D. Harden, Corporation Attorney, the
defendant by Hon. A. P. Adams.
After the charge had been read by the
Clerk of Council, the examination of wit
nesses was commenced, the following testi
mony being elicited:
J. 'Winkers, a member of the Waver Fire
Company, stated that he was present at the
fire, and that there were several streams of
water thrown on the fire; all streams except
that of the Waver were ordered turned off
by the Chief when the fire was extinguished:
Foreman Franklin ordered his stream turned
on after it was ordered turned off by the
Chief.
Cross-examined : I was passing at the time
when the Chief asked Franklin who turned
on the water; Franklin replied, “I did, by
Chief Blair next took the stand, and
stated that after he ordered the water shut
off, found that the Bartows were still play
ing a stream, aud Inquired who turned the
water on; Franklin replied, “1 did by G ;”
witness then ordered Franklin’s arrest after
he had used other disrespectful language to
him.
P. Lindenstruth, member of the Werners,
was present; know that the water was
turned off ; didn’t know who turned it on ;
heard Chief ask who tamed it on; Franklin
said he did by G ; Franklin said Blair
didn’t order water turned off : Chief said he
did.
H. F. Lubbs (First Foreman Werner II. &
L. Company)—Don’t know how the water
was turned on; saw a man fastening the
pipe on the host; afterwards 6aw a stream
come through the nozzle; the Chief asked
who turned bn the stream, when Franklin
answered he did.
C. F. O’Neill (President of Waver Fire
Company)—I was at the fire on the night in
question; the fire was not entirely out when
the stream from the Bartow was playing;
heard Chief Blair and Foreman Franklin in
controversy but could not distinguish what
they said.
Mr. Gutman knew’ that streams were
turned off then a stream turned on; was up
in the buiidiDg when the stream came in; I
asked them to stop the stream as I was
getting wet; there was no necessity for the
stream, the fire being out except a few-
smouldering embers,which were afterwards
pulled off by the Hook and Ladder Com
pany.
Mr. Cullen is a member of Bartow ; was
at the fire on March 22 ; was standing at the
hose carriage when Mr. Blair came up and
inquired lor Mr. Connery, Third Foreman
of the company ; he said the water must
be turned off ; I turned it off; Franklin
turned the water on : I did not tell him that
the water w’as ordered off; I was not present
when Mr. Blair spoke to Franklin.
Mr. Snow is a member of Bartow Fire
Company; 1 heard a conversation between
Blair aud Frankliu; I was in the building
with Mr. Franklin previously; couldn't use
the hose to advantage; the hose was then
hauled out and used ou the outside of the
building, when the water was suddenly
stopped; Frank in went to see
about it and after turning on water
returned; Mr. Blair then came up and asked
him if he turned on the water, etc.; Franklin
did not say by G ; at least I didn’t
hear him; 1 was in position to bear him if
he had said so; Franklin said he had
received no notice that the water was
ordered off.
Cross-examined : I don’t recollect whether
I coupled the pipe or not; don’t know who
uncoupled it; don’t know who coupled it,
but when the water came through it was
coupled.
Mr. Dairy (Cleburne Hose Company)—1
think an officer’s post is at the pipe; Mr.
Blair asked Frankliu who turned the water
on, and he replied that he did; Frankliu
said he did not know the water had been
ordered off; did not think Mr. Franklfu’t-
conduct was insolent or insulting; Mr. Blair
jerked him by the collar and sent him to
the guard house; the house that was on fire
being peculiarly built, and the goods having
all been taken out, I don’t think the water
could do damage; 1 have always seen Mr.
Franklin do his duty at fires; I did not hear
Mr. Franklin say by G at the time of
conversation between the Chief and him
self.
M. T. Quinan (Secretary of the Bartow
Fire Company)—I was present a f . the fire;
heard Mr. Blair order the water off: did not
bear the conversation between Blair and
Franklin.
Mr. Kelley—I did not hear any offensive
words on either side; heard Mr. Blair say
damu it; did not hear Mr. Frankliu say by
G .
Mr. H. M. Branch—I had some connection
with the Volunteer Fire Department six or
seven years ago; I was Foreman of the Metro
politan for three years; the Foreman should
be where he could see the fire,pipes aud pipe-
men; I knew Mr. Franklin when plpeinan
under me, and considered him a first class
officer; I never knew’ him to disobey au or
der; the chief officer should not hold the
pipe, but should be in a position to govern
the same.
A. J. Franklin, the defendant, made the
following statement: On the 22d March,
about quarter past two o’clock a. m., there
was au alarm of tire; I was at work watering
street uuder contract, but immediately pro
ceeded to the fire, aud was nearly the first
one on the ground, except Cleburne Hose;
the Assistant Chief saw me take a stream
inside the buildiug, but was subsequently
ordered to play a stream ou the outside by
the Assistant Fireniau ; while playing on
the building water was stopped ; I inquired
why, and could not find our, and then turned
it on again ; the Chief came up and asked
me who turned on the water ; I said I did ;
l;e said he had given an order to turn it off
to an officer of the company; I 6aid there
was no officer of the Bartow present at that
time; he said he didn’t wijut any insolence,
and ordered me arrested; I regarded it my
duty to play on the lire until ordered to dis
continue by the Chief or Assistant Chief;
1 did not say by G when spoken to by
Mr. Blair; when the stream was shut off I
was trying to reach a portion of the build
ing still on fire; I did Dot think the stream
would damage any property.
The above synopsis will give an idea of
the testimony elicited, over two hours being
occupied in the examination of witnesses.
After Mr. Franklin’s statement, there was
a brief argument reviewing the testimony
and presenting the facts as adduced pro
and con, after which the matter was sub
mitted to the committee.
The Mayor announced that the committee
would reserve their decision, and the crowd
quickly dispersed.
The City’* Water Supply.
It is expected that Council at its meeting
to-night will act finally upon the subject of
providing our city with an abundant supply
of water, against the purity and wholesome
ness of which the greatest caviller can raise
no objection.
As far as we can learn, there is perfect
unanimity on one point, via: that something
ought to be done, and dene quickly. The
only difference of opinion is as to the point
from which the future supply shall be
drawn.
The joint commitlee who have had the
subject under consideration have recom
mended, as our readers already know, that
a wooden box culvert shall be run under
ground to connect with the canal, which at
present supplies the city basins—a distance
of about nine hundred and seveuty-five
feet—and to extend out into the current of
the river where the water is deep. If this
is done, it is proposed to draw, at three-
quarter tide, a supply of water from 6ome
distance below the surface, with which to
fill the basins, and in this way it is believed
the ver^- best, freshest and purest water of
the river can readiiy be ahorded our citUens
at an actual cost of about $3,000.
Should any other point higher up the river
be selected it is manifest that the expense
of the work must necessarily be largely in
creased, without any decided benefit being
gained thereby. The utmost that can be
done will be to give us the best of water,
and the great object to be had in view is to
do this in the shortest possible
time, and at the^ least possible cost,
economy in management of the city’s funds
beiDg a most important matter. If then
the plau proposed Ly the joint committee
will meet all the demands of the case, good
pure water to be furnished at an early date
and with economy, it certainly seems to us
that such a plan is the only one which
Council should adopt. We trust that this
long discussed subject will, therefore, be
settled this evening without any further un-
neeescary discussion.
Travelers should be prepared for the
changes of weather and against the effects
of exposure by providing themselves with
Dr. Bull’s Cough Scrap—the best made.

The Colored Porter ol the First
National Bank Discover* a Coat
tail Protruding from tlie Presi
dent 9 * Closet.
Condensed from the Charleston Keirs and
Courier <>f Monday.
The First National Bank stands on the
west side of East Bay street, a few doors
north of Broad. In the rear of the main
apartment, which fronts on the Bay, is a
directors’ room, behind which is the private
room of the President, Dr. Simonds. The
door from the directors’ rcom opens into
it on the eastern side. Nearly all of
the southeastern panel is occupied by
the large door of a closet, and on the
northern side is the door leading into the
yard, which runs back to State street. The
rear along State street is enclosed by an iron
fence, with heavy iron gates, which are open
during the day. The President is in the
habit of taking a tin box, containing a large
quantity of valuable securities, from the
bank vault in the morning and placing it on
a shelf iu the closet just alluded to during
the day, in order to have it within easy
reach. The door of this closet is locked by
an improved spring lock, with a somewhat
peculiar key.
Yesterday about half-past 1 o’clock Dr.
Simonds left his room for a few minutes
passing through the back yard to State
street. This fact was noted by John Robin
son, the colored janitor of the bauk build
ing. whose house is in the rear, aud he be
gau t-o keep a lookout upon the President’s
room. Passing it a few moments after
wards he heard a “rustling” inside; think
ing, as he says, that Dr. Simonds had re
turned very quicklv, he slightly opened the
door and looked in'. The door of the closet
on the opposite side from him was open and
he could 6ee
A STRANGE COAT-TAIL
evidently belonging to some one inside the
closet and concealed by the door. The ap
pendage was in a state of agitation indicat
ing that its por-eessorwas working hurriedly
aud rapidly. Closing the door softly, Rob
inson ran through a side door into the ma:n
banking room aud hastily requested the gen
tlemen there to stop the man whom he sus
pected to be in the President’s closet, should
he attempt to pass out the front way. He
then slipped back through the side door,
opened the one leading from the yard to the
President’s room, and ent -red i hat apart
ment. As the janitor entered on this side,
a young gentleman was passing out ou the
other through the directors’ room, and the
closet door was closed and locked again.
THE YOUNG GENTLEMAN
in question was cool and unconcerned,
handsomely dressed, quite good looking,
and bore a brown linen bundle under hi.-
arm. According tc Robinson’s suggestion
he was stopped as he was passing through
the banking room by one of the officers.
The stranger was of good address, but ap
parently had no time to waste iu idle talk,
as he answered the questions put him care
lessly and evasively and pushed by. Robia
son, however, had followed him out, and
when he had reached the front door en
forced his attention by catching him by the
arm and propounding a series of queries,
looking to au explanation of the strange
young gentleman’s presence in the Presi
dent’s closet. The latter replied that he
had been to see Dr. Simonds, and finding
him out had left a note on his desk about
some books.
A PRACTICAL MAN.
Neither the strauger’s gentlemanly ap
pearance and manners nor plausible story
proved satisfactory to Robinson. The sharp
young man from the North and the com
paratively unsophisticated darkey were pit
ted against one another, and for once the
former had to submit. He proposed to re
turn to the President’s room, where he
would show the note he had left as proof of
his veracity. This was assented to, aud the
two went back, Robinson following close
upon the heels of his young friend, who did
not, however, tarry with him long. As
they reached the President’s room the stran
ger suddenly dropped
his litAe crown bag,
threw open the door, and tore through the
yard like a deer, with the janitor hard after
him. After a long aud exciting chase, Rob
inson keeping close on the heels of the
stranger, shouting, “Stop thief!” “stop
thief !” with the aid of a couple of police
men the latter was captured. He gave his
name as
JOHN MORGAN,
and his residence as Utica, N. Y. On his
person were found fifty dollars in five dollar
Dills in a blank book, and two dollars and
ninety cents in small change. B-sides this
was a handsome gold watch and chain, a
box of chlorate of potash lozenges, aDd in
one of his pockets he had two very fine
scarf pins, apparently of solid gold, set with
diamonds. One of them was a rough gold
skull and cross-bones, the eyes of the skull
being either diamonds or Brazilian pebbles.
The most damaging thing found upon him.
however, was
A KEY AND PIECE OF WAX.
The key was of brass, roughly made, and
evidently newly filed, and was the counter
part of the key to Dr. Simonds’ closet. This
explains how an entrance was effected, al
though how he secured the original key to
take an impression, and how he knew of the
deposit of valuables in the closet, is still a
mystery. Morgan soou regained his com
posure, and became as cool and cheeky as
possible. The key, lie said, was his own
and fitted his room door. He could see
nothing wrong or suspicious in the wax. It
was such as any tailor might have. He was
locked up, and an examination instituted
into the contents of the little brown bag
dropped at the door. It w’as found to con
tain about
TWENTY THOUSAND DOLLARS
of Dr. Simonds’ bonds, etc., Morgan having,
even in his haste, selected from the contents
of the tin box such papers as could be
quickly and conveniently converted into cash.
Twelve thousand dollars of the amount was
in United States coupon bonds. The bag
itself is about the size of a twenty-five-pouud
flour 6ack, made of brown linen, sewed by a
lock-stitch machine, and smells as if it had
lain fora long time among perfumed articles.
The contents, when replaced in the box, left
nothing missing. The bank has not lost a
dollar.
Morgan is about five feet 6ix inches in
height, and apparently between twenty-five
aud thirty years of age. He is
QUITE A HANDSOME MAN,
being something of a blonde. His face is
clean shaven, with the exception of small,
close-cut and becoming brown side whis
kers. He wore & handsome suit of blue
cloth, spotless shirt and collar, and a
tasty, though somewhat flashy, scarf. His
soft blue felt hat was set jauntily on the
back of his head, with the brim turned
down so as to shade his face. Ilis shoes are
somewhat peculiar in having no tacks in
them, the soles being covered with some
thing that makes his tread as soft as a cat’s.
In fact, the feline comparison would hold
good with him in other respects, his motions
being quick and restless, with that same in
definable suggestion of ease, strength and
springiness that characterizes animals of
that species.
When interviewed by a reporter he
wa6 remarkably calm and self possessed,
showing no signs of trouble. He refused to
answer questions, except through his coun
sel. He told the reporter that he had been
in the tobacco business in Utica, but had re
tired. He was at present traveling for
pleasure, having been to Florida, and had
been in this city for about two weeks. He
explained the presence of a railroad check
found on his person by the statement that
his trunk was at the Northeastern Railroad
depot. It could not be found there, how
ever. and the probability is that it wa6 sent
ahead, its owner intending to follow it as
he had completed the “haul,” which was
so nearly successful. His accent is that of a
Northern man, and his bearing and conver
sation indicates that fie has somewhere ac
quired good breeding and a correct knowl
edge of grammar. The police regard Rob
inson as a dangerous and slippery customer,
and last night be was taken to jail.
Southern Vegetable* and Fruit.
The Baltimore Sun of March 28th says:
“The produce dealers in Baltimore have
intelligence from Southern track and berry
growers to the effect that vegetation is ad
vancing finely and good crops will be made.
Strawberry picking wijl commence around
Charleston next week, which is some da}s
earlier than last year. The Baltimore and
Charleston steamers have arranged for re
frigerators for the trade. Baltimore will
receive large quantities of. berries from
Charleston. Florida strawberries have been
going to New York by steamship for some
days, but Baltimore has not received any of
them for want of transportation facilities, as
steamers supplied with refrigerators are ne
cessary for 6uch perishable merchandise in
long distances. Florida green peas have
been sold in Baltimore at $3 a box. A lot of
twelve do*en bunches of asparagus, from
Charleston, the first of the season, sold here
this week at 90 cents a bunch to the trade.
Norfolk lettuce brings about $3 a barrel,
and kale is$lto $1 15 a barrel. In a few
days the track business will open briskly.”
The New York Herald mentions that “the
great question with many people just now
is whether to buy a couple of diamonds or a
couple of Florida, strawberries. The prices
are about the same.”
The New Scheme for a Purer Water
Supply.
Editor Morning News: I Lave examined
carefully the proposed new site for a water
supply and feel it my duty to protest against
any such scheme. Indeed, so obvious is it
that contaminations are exactly the same at
this new point as at the present inlet that I
atn certain either that the gentlemen who
Voted for this spot never personally visited
it, or else they were thinking of the coupons,
bonds and public debt, ana not of the pub
lic When the pqbjic schools are
abandoned, and so strange a scheme for the
water supply advocated, it is about time to
reflect over where we are driftingto.

Bore* at the Theatre.
The following little sketch has a local ap
plication, and will be read with interest by
many who can appreciate the fidelity with
which the portrait is drawn :
“The New York Graphic the other dav
had a capital cartoon of theatre bores. It
showed the fellow who gets Into a wrong
seat, and cannot be made to understand; the
gentleman from the country who wants to
know all about bis seat at the box office, and
keeps other people back: the fellow who
has seen the play and not only explains the
situations, but tells his victim what is going
to happen; the mules who think themselves
in a cattle yard (fellows raising an earthquake
of a noise with heavy boots); the gentleman
whose hearing is rather dull, ‘What did he
say? what did he say?’ chorus during the
performance of the orchestra; opera books;
books of the opera: portraits of Miss ;
the most intense of all theatre bores, the
fellow who hums with exultation all the fa
vorite airs as they are sung; other amiable
specimens, the Italian signori who bawl out,
‘Bravo, bravo, bravo!’ the old duffer, who
enjoys it hugely and expresses his delight
by thumping on the floor with his cane with
all his might: the man who has a bad cold
and sneezes through the performance; the
stout old gentleman who goes to sleep at the
end of the first act and leans on his neighbor
for the rest of the evening: the man who
has forgotten his opera glasses, ‘Could
trouble you lor your glasses for a minute or
two sir?’ those Infernal hats: a pretty bore,
who talks all the time in her box, as if
she were at home in her parlor; the friend
of the actor, a confirmed deadhead, applauds
every time his friend appears or disappears
those absurd people who make it a point to
come in a quarter of an hour after the cur
tain is up, hunt for their seats and talk all
the while; the nice fellows from the club
who step in at the beginning of the seconc,
act, after dinner, and express their opinions
aloud in the following manner, if they ap
prove, ‘Jolly!’ if otherwise, ‘Beastly!’
and the scoundrel who persists in going out
every time the curtain comes down, pokes
his elbow in one man’s face, his cane into
another man’s eye, knocks off a lady'
bonnet, but all that with the sweetest
smiles, and excusing himself most affably.
Public Opinion.
Although the tide of travel is turning
northward, yet the daily arrivals at the
Planters Hotel are still on the increase, and
the fact can be demonstrated by the un
usual arrival of parties from the neighbor
ing States of South Carolina, Florida, and
from all parts of Georgia, who make this
hotel their headquarters. The facilities are
so perfect that families, visitors, business
men, and the bone and sinew of the country
are flocking to the Planters.
'The rates of this hotel have been reduced
to meet the exigencies of the times to $1 50
and $2 per day, according to location of
rooms.
Table bountifully supplied with the
choicest meats from Northern markets.
This hotel is endorsed by .the public and
the press throughout the country.

(•rand Opening of Spring Good*.
On Thursday next Mr. Ii. C. Houston
will have a grand opening of bis spring and
summer goods, at his establishment on
Congress street. These goods have just
been received, and embrace all the latest
novelties in bonnets, millinery, neck wear,
gloves, etc., in fact, the assortment is one
of the finest ever brought to this city. The
ladies are especially invited fo call and in
spect this elegant array of goods, and we
doubt not they will be present iu force, as
they know that Houston alwa}8 gets the
best of everything in his line. mhSl-tf
Big prices will not do in these hard times,
when even the wealthy cannot afford to
waste thei* money and the poor require
double duty of every d dlar and every pent y.
To pay $13 or $20 for a suit of clothes,
when you can buy fully as good an article
for $12 50, at lhe famous New York Bank
rupt Clothing House, is certainly money
wasted. Call before purchasing elsewhere.
It U for your own good. No 140 Congress

Porou* Plaster*.
Benson’s Capcine Porous Plaster is the
best You will discover that it is positively
far superior to common slow acting porous
plasters, which you have perhaps tried and
found more or less beneficial. It acts
quicker, it is more powerful, it exerts a far
greater influence over the system. It re
lieves pain at once. It strengthens, soothes
and cures where other plasters will not even
relieve. It is pleasant and convenient to
wear. Benson’s Capcine Porous Plaster is
in every way an improvement on ordinary
porous plasters and all similar remedies.

From David Ashton, Savannah: “When
I commenced taking the Palmetto prepara-
ration, I had become so reduced in flesh and
strength that I was hardly able to get out
of beu. I had been treated here and in
New York by several physicians for con
sumption, the result or a cold contracted
four or five years ago, while working at my
trade (blacksmith). My cough was very
distressing, and I expectorated very pro
fusely. After taking the Palmetto prepara
tion about two months, I am now In com
parative good health, sleep well, and am
able to work at my trade.”
