their line performances have added
materially to the exchequer of some of our
charitable institutions. For their own bene
fit a very attractive bill has been arranged,
and a performance may be anticipated which
will fully reflect credit upon the accomplish

Tlic Excur*lou to Beaufort
Tybee.
The fine steamer City of Bridgetoi^made
an excursion to Tybee and Beaufort yester
day, and carried the largest party of
pleasure )seekers that have left the city
ou Sunday this season. The trip,
we learn from some of the ex
cursionists, was enjoyable in every respect.
After touching at Tybee aud landing such
of the pleasure seekers as desired to spend
the day on the island, the steamer continued
on to Beaufort, which place was reached in
good time, and an hour or two was pleas
antly spent in sight-seeing about the ancient
town.
The Water LHy, on her several trips to
Tybee. bad carried down quite a large num
ber of ladies and gentlemen, the majority of
whom remained over to take the Bridgeton
on her return trip from Beaufort. The
Ocean House was lively with the visitors,
aud the beach presented a scene that would
not have suffered iu comparison to Cape
May. There were at one time, it is esti
mated, considerably over one huudred per
sons reveling in the pleasures of surf bath
ing.
The Bridgeton reached Tybee on her way-
back from Beaufort about seven o’clock, and
by half-past seven all were on board, and
homeward bound was the word. The wharf
at the city was made by quarter to ten
o’clock, and landed the large party safe and
sound,delighted with their day’s experience.
The excursionists were wi*rm in their praise
of the accommodating spirit and courtesy
exhibited by the management, aud the ex
cellent conduct of the excursion.

Discovery of a Drowned Woman.
On Saturday morning a colored man named
Henry Francis, while out gunning in the
yicinity of 8haw’s rice, plantation, about
seven iuile6 from the city, had his attention
attracted to a flock of buzzards that arose
suddenly from a distant portion of the
field at the report of his gun. His curi
osity was excited to ascertain the cause
and proceeding in the direction from
wbuiutf tjie black scavengers had arisen, he
came across the body qf a colored woman
lying in an inlet partially out of tl;e water.
The body was in a terrible condition, having
evidently been attacked by the buzzards
some time before.
Coroner Sheftall was notified, and pro
ceeded to the place, when an inquest was
held upon the body. It was ascer
tained that the deceased was a colored
woman named Elsie Williams, who had left
the house of her brother, Richard Jackson,
in the neighborhood of the plantation, on
the 19th of May, and had not been seen
since. It appeared that she had been suf
fering froffi abfcerailon of mind, and hail
wandered from home in ti*U condition and
been a< cidentally drowned. A verdict in
accordance with these facts was rendered by
the jury*
State Sunday School Convention
At the session of the above named con
vention, now being held in Macon, con
siderable business of interest was transacted.
Upon the call of districts, the following re
ports from Chatham county were made:
Rev. R. F. Markham, of Chatham, re
ported that in the colored schools there
were two thousand. Last year a general
meeting was held to invite Governor Col
quitt, aud he addressed the schools. The
resolution that meetings be held monthly
has been followed. A new impetus has
thus been given to work throughout the
city aud county. No announcement elicits
more interest than the announcement of
these Sunday school meetings.
Mr. R. B. Reppard, of Chatham, was un
w illing that the wire grass country be unrep-
resented ; that the work was going ahead,
and if the other counties did not mind the
wire grass counties would catch up.
Gen. Harrison was called on and reported
that one-third of the counties of his district
were organized. The difficulty existing in
the district was its extent. Parts were re
mote from the railroad. That is one reason
for so little progress.
The people are becoming aroused. He at
tended a county convention in Effingham
county which rejoiced the heart. There
was a union of brotherly love aud co-opera
tion.
In Chatham county there were two asso
ciations, 11,000 children, 7,000 of whom
were not enrolled in Sunday school books.
He spoke of the importance of the roll,
and said that there was need of a more*
efficient Vice President.
Iu reply to a question General Harrison
said there were 6,000 colored children, 4 000
of whom were not enrolled.

A Street Ito\v - Disgraceful Scene*.
Last evening about eight o’clock the
neighborhood of Jones street lane and
Lincoln street was the scene of a dis
graceful row between a crowd of negroes
which for a time created very lively excite
raent. Sergeant Lee chanced to be riding
in the vicinity on bis tour of inspection and
hearing of the rumpus galloped rapidly to
the spot w-here he found the crowd col
lected. Springing from his horse he called
uprn Prince Williams, colored, to hold his
horse, and at once made for an individual
who appeared to be very conspicuous in
the row. Prince, however, declined to watch
the horse, and thus render assistance to
the officer, and sallied to the
rescue of the prisoner, who 6uc
ceeded in getting away. Thomas Smith,
one of the crowd, was then arrested on com
plaint of Jack Allen, who alleged that Tom
had been mauling him fearfully. Mean
while Prince Williams was arrested and
takeu to the barracks to answer several
charges, among them refusing to assist an
officer when called upon and aiding a
prisoner to escape. The row was then
broken up without further trouble and the
spectators separated..
A Kurapu* fu Cooper Shop Lane.
This delectable locality was yester
day morning about two o’clock the scene of
considerable excitement, and a large crowd
collected from the neighboring precincts.
Policeman Powers was also attracted to the
scene and discovered that the excitement
was occasioned by a once famous leader of
the demi-monde, Belle Fisher, who had
been investigating the merits of fusil
oil whisky, until she thought
she saw “snakes in her boots,” and was
screaming to scare them off. The unfortu
uate female, in other words, had a very
bad case (apparently) of “jim jams,” and
her yells, as she was being carried to the
barracks, were actually fearful. After
reaching the barracks the woman was trans
ferred to one of the cells. She pitched her
self on the floor end yelled and screamed
most vigorously, but no good came of it,
and she finally quieted down.
A Darkey Seek** the Secln*iou of
Lane,
Yesterday morning about quarter past
three o'clock Policeman Mulligan noticed a
colored man prowling around Congress
street lane, near Barnard street, in a very
suspicious manner. He leisurely sauntered
up to the colored individual and kindly in
quired why he was roaming about a dark
lane at that unseemly hour instead of
sleeping the sleep of the righteous
iu his virtuous couch. The darkey
considering such inquiries an interference
with his privileges, became rather insulting
m bis language, and placed his hand behind
him as though to draw his little razor. Po
liceman Mulligan was too quick *for him,
however, and snatching him up, pranced
him off to the institution on South Broad
street, where he gave his name a3 Andrew
Griffin. A large gimlet aud a flask of
whisky were found upon his person. An
drew will be held as a suspicious character.
Creating a Disturbance.
Oa Saturday night, about eleven o’clock,
the neighborhood of Habersham and Bryan
streets was greatly disturbed by the excit
able conduct of a pugnacious colored fe
male named Anne Johnson, who was under
the influence of liquor. Her obscene
and profane vituperations were heard
several biockf, off, and attracted the
attention of Policeman O’Keefe, who
hastened to the house where
in dwelt the gentle Annie, and invited «her
to take a promenade to the barracks where
she would be furnished with a secluded
apartment, and given full privilege to exer
cise her lungs and display her proficiency in
vulgarity. Annie accepted the invite re
luctantly, and last night slumbered peace
fully on a first floor with Southern frontage.
A midnight Salute.
Shortly before midnight on Saturday,
while Policeman Kiernan was patrolling his
beat, his keen ears were shocked by the re
port of a pistol from the rear of a house on
Bay street, between Houston and East
Broad. Hastening hither, he discovered a
white man, who had apparently been
“steaming up” on the fiery liquid, amusing
himself by firing off his pistol. He at once
took the individual in tow and trotted him off
to the barracks, where the charge of tiring a
pistol within the city limits and disturbing
the peace of the neighborhood was entered
against him. He will have the pleasure of
meeting Mayor Wheaton at the matinee this
morning,
Snoozing on a Door Stoou.
An individual giving the uncommou name
of John Smith, was discovered about 4
o’clock yesterday morning lying on the
stoop of a house on South Broad street near
Price, in deep slumber. After considerable
difficulty Policeman Bender succeeded in
getting him to the bar racks, where more com
fortable quarters were provided him. It is
believed that Mr. Smith was drunk, and act
ing ou this impression, the officer had such
a charge entered against him.
VIAL A KIA L FEVER.
Malarial fevers, constipation, torpidity of
the liver and kidneys, general debility,
nervousness and neur&lgiac ailments yield

Great Reduction.
Mr. H. C. Houston, Congress street, hav
ing now on hand a very large stock of mil
linery, elc., has determined to make great
reductions in prices on all goods in hi6 line,
and in order to do so has marked his goods
at prices which cannot fail to meet the ap
proval of all. His stock comprises in part
of New York and Paris millinery, French
nainsooks. Bishop’s and Victoria lawns,
French organdies, in white and colors < finest
of the kind in the market), kid gloves for
ladles and gentlemen, ties and bows, Breton
and other fashionable laces, and, in fact, a
thousand other articles which we cannot
mention for want of space. Mr. Houston
for years has been noted for his fine class
of goods, and is unsparlDg in pains to keep
up his reputation for first-class goods at
reasonable figures. Unusual inducements
are now offered to purchasers, for the stock
must be reduced. We would therefore ad
vise our lady friends who are in need of any
thing in the above lines to lose no time, but
go at once and take advantage of the bar
gains which are now being offered by this
well known house. In buying goods at
this establishment you can do so with the
assurance that everything will turn out as
represented. This is no trick to deceive the
public, but is meant in good faith, as you
will be convinced bv calling at Houston’s,

On the Rampage—Invasion
House.
Yesterday morning, about three o’clock,
an individual who had been gaziDg into the
rosy cup rather too frequently, entered the
house of Mary Clarke, colored, and com
menced playing the deuce generally. Mary
invited the intruder lo retire, when he
turned upon her, and,according to her state
ment, struck and otherwise maltreated
her. Policeman Buckley, in the interest
of peace and good order, snatched the in
truder up, and waltzed him off to the bar
racks.
A Colored Centenarian lu Distre**.
Whilst mounted policeman Reilly was
making his accustomed rounds yesterday
morning about si^ o’clock) he learned that
an old colored man was lying in a house
near tbe corner of West Broad street, near
Sims, in a destitute condition. On investi
gation he found such was the case, the col
ored citizen, who gave his age as one hun
dred and four years, being utterly destitute
of the common necessaries of life. The
fact was reported to the barracks and meas
ures will be taken to have the immediate
wants of the aged colored citizen relieved.

turing the dusky damsels, pranced them off
to the barracks.

THE GENUINE
DR. C. McLANE’S
Celebrated American
WORM SPECIFIC
OR
VERMIFUGE.
SYMPTOMS OF WORMS.
T HE countenance is pale and lead
en-colored, with occasional flushes,
or a circumscribed spot on one or both
cheeks; the eyes become dull; the
pupils dilate; an azure semicircle
runs along die lower eye-lid; the
nose is irritated, swells, and sometimes
bleeds; a swelling of the upper lip;
occasional headache, with humming
or throbbing of the ears; an unusual
secretion of saliva; slimy or furred
tongue ; breath very foul, particularly
in the morning; appetite variable,
sometimes voracious, with a gnawing
sensation of the stomach, at others,
entirely gone; fleeting pains in the
stomach; occasional nausea and vom
iting ; violent pains throughout the
abdomen; bowels irregular, at times
costive; stools slimy, not unfrequent-
ly tinged with blood; belly swollen
and hard; urine turbid; respiration
occasionally difficult, and accompa
nied by hiccough; cough sometimes
dry and convulsive; uneasy and dis
turbed sleep, with grinding of the
teeth ; temper variable, but generally
irritable, &c.
Whenever the above symptoms
are found to exist,
DR. C. McLANE’S VERMIFUGE
will certainly effect a cure.
IT DOES NOT CONTAIN MERCURY
in any form; it is an innocent prepa
ration, not capable of doing the slightest
injury to the most tender infant.
The genuine Dr. McLane's Ver
mifuge bears the signatures of C.
McLane and Fleming Bros, on the
wrapper. —:o:—
DR. C. McLANE’S
LIVER PILLS
are not recommended as a remedy “for
all the ills that flesh is heir to,” but in
affections of the liver, and in all Bilious
Complaints, Dyspepsia and Sick Head
ache, or diseases of that character, they
stand without a rival.
AGUE AND FEVER.
No fetter cathartic can be used prepar
atory to, or after taking Quinine.
As a simple purgative they are un
equaled.
BEWARE OF IMITATIONS-
The genuine are never sugar coated.
Each box has a red wax seal on the
lid, with the impression Dr. McLane's
Liver Pills.
Each wrapper bears the signatures of
C. McLane and Fleming Bros.
Insist upon having the genuine Dr.
C. McLane’s Liver Pills, prepared by
Fleming Bros., of Pittsburgh, Pa., the
market being full of imitations of the
name McLane, spelled differently but
same pronunciation.
