How It Works,
A newspaper is the most comprehensive
and intelligent public servant in the world.
When you are asleep the history of the past
24 hours is being collected and classified for
your instruction and entertainment, and
possibly your amusement. Even the adver
tisements in a newspaper like the Morning
News are part and parcel of the current
commercial iutelligence of the day. If any
of our enterprising grocery merchants or
dry goods dealers have received fresh invoices
of goode in their lines their first thought is
to communicate the fact to tteir customers
through the columns of the Morning News.
They may employ commercial travelers
to go from town to town to
explain the special advantages they
have to offer. To do his work well the com
mercial traveler requires time in order to
see parties at distant points, while the news
papers perform a similar service at once,
reaching all interested almost simultaneous
ly and with a promptness and at an expense
not one-tenth of that of the commercial
traveler. The newspaper is moreover
silent missionary, always at work in your
interest, a welcome visitor to every house
hold, and its attractions are such that you
are compelled to be attentive in spite* of
yourself. Ttie merchant who knows the
art o* addressjug the public about his own
business iu his own interest, and in a mau-
ner to interest the reader, has already con
quered the greatest obstacles to success in
business.

Few excursions ever left Augusta with

seems to have gone off well until the return
trip, when a thre£ hours’ delay was occa

of tha steamer City of Bridgeton from Sa

The steamer evidently undertook jo do too
much, and the pressure upon her for Sun
day passenger travel for Tybee seriously
inconvenienced the Augusta excursionists.
The party did not arrive at Port Royal until
five o’clock yesterday morning, and reached

The Amateur*-Entertainment La»t
Night.
The performance given last evening by
the Ford Amateurs for the benefit of the
St. Patrick’s Catholic Church attracted
large audience, the Theatre being comforta
bly filled, but doubtless would have been
packed had not the weather been unfavor
able, as we learn a large number of tickets
were sold.
We feel assured that those present will
fully coincide with us in the assertion that
the entertainment was far superior to many
that have been given here by professional
troupes, and that no praise is too high to be
awarded the amateurs for their excellence,
and the efficient stage manager, Mr. J. M.
Johnsen, for the admirable manner in which
both drama and farce were mounted, set
and presented. The performance opened
with the beautiful and interesting drama
“Theresa’s Vow, or the Fair Maid of
Croissey,” with the following cast:
Theresa Miss Carrie Lewii
Manette Miss Julia Burroughs
Sergeant Austerlitz James M. Johnsen
Francis H. M. Rossignol
Walter Berier Joseph Delannoy
John J. B. Oliveros, Jr
Pierre H. C. Bass
The title role was well sustained by Miss
Lewis, who seems to increase in favor with
Savannah audiences on each successive ap
pearance, her entree last evening being
greeted with hearty applause. Miss Lewis
is a lady of fine presence, graceful, easy in
action and voice, and exhibits talent of a
high order. Her portrayal of the beautiful
and noble character of “Theresa” showed
a thorough conception and careful study,
and the “Fair Maid” was presented
to the audience in a style that touched all
hearts and won admiration and applause.
“Sergeant Austerlitz,” rendered by Mr. J.
M. Johnsen, who is perfectly at home, so to
speak, in whatever he undertakes, could not
have been better enacted. Mr. Johnsen is a
tine actor, knows well the value of correct
manner, and avoids all exaggeration, pre
senting his character in the most natural
manner, sinking for the time his own
identity. Never have we seen the
gallant “ Sergeant ” more effectively
given. In the scene with “Theresa,” where
he relates the history of the cross and the
sad fate of its noble defender, and after
wards, when he recognizes “Frauds” as his
beloved Captain, whom he thought dead,
Mr. Johnsen displayed dramatic ability
which entitles him to front rank among
the amateurs of the country. The “Fran
els” of Mr. H. M. Rossignol was very credi
tably personated, and the character not
being in his usual line, greater
opportunity was afforded for the
display of his versatile genius. Mr. Rossig
nol is one of the leading members of the
Amateur Association, and one of whom
they may well feel proud, as he never fails
to acquit himself with credit and earn the
plaudits of an appreciative house. “Walter
Berier” was capitally given by Mr. Jos. A.
Delannoy, whose clear enunciation, perfect
knowledge of his part, correct action and self-
po*sessed mauner made a decidedly favor
able impression upon the house. He seemed
to know what was required of the character,
and, with earnestness and fidelity, portrayed
it. “ Manette ” found a personator in
Miss Burroughs, who sustained the part
fairly. This young lady has the unfortunate
habit of talking at, not to, the person with
whom she is in dialogue, and hence de
tracts from the effect of her scenes.
This, however, may be overcome, and as
the young lady evinc ed commendable zeal
and interest, the audience rewarded her with
kind plaudits. In one part we may specially
commend “Manette,” and that was the
scene at the table where “Walter”
deavors to induce “Theresa” to accept
Francis” as her husbt nd.
The minor characters were all well given,
and the entire drama was as finely presented
as could be desired.
The drama was followed by the appear
anee of Mr. Thomas Ray, the vocalist
of the association, who favored the
audience with popular ballads and charac
ter songs, which were rapturously ap
plauded.
The entertainment closed with Tyrone
Power’s inimitable farce entitled *“The
Omnibus,” with the following cast, assisted
by the full strength of the Association:’
Julia Ledger .. .Miss Carrie Lewis
Mrs Dobbs Miss Julia Burroughs
Pat Rooney Wm. A. McCarthy
Mr. Ledger H. M. Rossignol
Mr. Dobbs Lawrence Doyle
Master Tom Dobbs George Gray
Farrier Boy Master Dalton
The stage manager certainly showed good
judgment in the selection of this amusing
farce as a finale, as the audience were kept
in continual laughter during its progress,
and at the conclusion left the Theatre in
excellent humor, thoroughly pleased with
the evening spent. The several characters
were well sustained, Miss Lewis making
pretty and attractive “Julia,” and Mr.
Gray a lovely “Master Tom.” The “ Pat
Rooney” of Mr. W. A McCarthy was siin
ply immense, and deserves tlie highest
praise for its excellence. He kept the
audience convulsed with laughter
and yet there was nothing overdone. “Mr.
Ledger,” by Mr. Rossignol, aud “Mr.
Dobbs,” by Mr. Lawrence Doyle, were
splendidly presented and received the com
mendation of the house, whilst Master
Dalton very pleasingly represented the
“Farrier Boy.”
Altogether the entertainment was a dram
atie and financial success, aud the perform
auce gave yet another token of the histrionic
ability of the Ford Amateurs, whose career
since their organization has been remark
able for brilliant successes. Savannah justly
feejs proud of her amateurs, aud our com
munity will always delight to do them
honor.
A Suspicion* Character,
On Monday night about twelve o’clock
policeman McGuire encountered an indi
vidual meandering along the boulevard in a
manner indicating that he was not desirous
of attracting special attention—in fact, was
of a modest disposition and was anxious to
avoid notice, particularly by policemen.
Officer McGuire, with an utter disregard
of the feelings of the midnight prowler, can-
.... te kir» ..ti,,.'. Li..- ..„.1 .ir
tered up to him rather briskly, and discov
ered that he had a sack of coffee on his
shoulder, the possession of which he could
not account for satisfactorily. The indi
vidual was thereupon taken Into custody
and trotted off to the barracks, where
his name was registered as Rudolph
Atierns. Yesterday morning he was pranced
before the Mayo*, when ft iirief of
his capture was given, aud a Ijae of ten dol
lars and costs or thirty days retirement from
public life to the seclusion of the jail was
recorded as the “of-fleial utterance.”

A New York correspondent of the Atlanta
Constitution, under date of the 10th inst
gives the following statement in reference
to the recent failure ot the above named
firm, and some points regarding “cotton
gambling,” which may be of local interest
* * * * Inasmuch as it is reported
here that Mr. George W. Williams, of
Charleston, is exerting himsell adroitly and
energetically to the task of creating a pub
lie opinion in the South towards excusing
his attempt to evade payment of his indebt
edness to merchants in this city who are
members of the New York Cotton Exchange,
indications of which have been given out to
newspapers aud in the form of circulars, I
have deemed it well to ask space of you
for the purpose of giving, in as few words
as possible, the origin and purpose
of the New York Cotton Exchange)
the nature of the business transacted in it
which have been assailed by him, and
which is of public interest, together with a
response to so much of the defense set up
by him, and intruded upon, or brought to
the notice of the public, for his failure to
settle the contracts made by his recent firm
of Williams, Birnle A Co., in this city. My
self a Southerner, an attempt of this sort I
cannot but regard as an insult to the iutelli
gence and integrity of the people of that
section, to whom these appeals are being di
rected, and that the fair play so universally
admired demands something from the other
side.
This exchange exists under a special char
ter enacted by the Legislature of the State,
and in which its powers are granted, its
purposes defined, and under the authority
of which the rules aud by-laws of the same
have been adopted and amended from time
to time as experience has suggested.
It was an absolute necessity of the trade,
the growth of years, already existing; its
purpose that the cotton business might for
the first time in its history be conducted
under organized direction adequate to its
vast and increasing proportions and varied
nature; at the same time subject to laws
and equitable regulations applicable to the
proper conduct of this branch of trade, and
which unquestionably afford more ready
and far better protection than the slow and
costly adjudication of courts having general
Jurisdiction. That these transactions, and
the rules governing them, afe founded
upon principles of justice and equity has
been affirmed repeatedly in the higher
courts of this State, as well as in your own
State.
The business of contracts for the future
delivery of cottons is the form of a part
only of the transactions made, and these
were first adopted for the mutual accommo
dation of manufacturers and of sellers in a
very natural way. The manufacturer con
tracted goods ahead, and then made his con
tracts with dealers to deliver such quanti
ties of cottons as would he required, but at
stated prices and times iu the future. On
the other band, planters and dealers are at
times anxious to secure existing prices for
some portions of the crop. Such offers were
made in this market, and demand created
supply. The guano trade, which handles
largely such contracts from your planters,
added its interest—exporters availed them
selves of its temporary protection for their
shipments—merchants are enabled to carry
their stocks in store during the season, by
selling contracts against them, and Euro
pean markets are not overcrowded at any
stage and undue depression is checked.
Not unlike the clearing house in banking,
it reduces the friction and expenses trans
fers, readily adjusts itself to the wants of
each one and is of great benefit to the in
dustry of the country, moving the crop from
the producer to the consumer at far less
cost than formerly.
Cotton has always been a favorite article
of speculation—“gambling” as Mr. Wil
liams disdainfully now calls it, but under
the system of years ago, when capitalists
only could handle it, speculation in it ran
to extremes unknown to the present system
which has reduced the trade from an aris
tocracy to a democracy.
The Rothschilds and t lie Barings no longer
hold the control, but anv one with some few
hundred dollars may nave an interest of
some moment in -the market. Many through
out the South have reaped great benefit
from this system during the present season
and while they may not be millionaires
they had brains enough to buy cotton at a
time when Mr. Williams’ influence and his
customers’ orders were directed to selling
short on speculation, as now appears.
That among a large membership, daily
transacting business with each other, not
only on account of dealers and merchants
throughout the United States, but In all
parts of the world where cotton Is bought
and sold, there should naturally grow up an
esprit du corps, and requisite sense of honor
aud manliness is to be expected. Failures
have occurred in the Duriuess, but until this
one they were uniformly caused by an in
ability to pay. Never before this has the
game of “heads I win, tails you lose,”
been openly declared, nor had it occurred
to merchants here that anyone engaged in
the trade of this market would send iu for
mal notice of bankruptcy, and at the same
time announce publiejy to the coptrary giv
ing furthermore as a reason that his pecu
liar type of honesty would not admit of his
meeting his liabilities by payment.
On the day of his failure, Mr. Williams
sent dispatches home—since given out for
publication—to the effect that he suspended
because he would n<5t encourage ‘.‘cotton
gambling,” yet on the following day he sold
10,000 bales through a single broker on the
exchange, quietly collected such differences
as were dqe his house on contracts settled
under the rqle jn cbnsequencd‘ of the an
nouncement of this failure, continued to
collect other dues until apprehending suits,
and at a moment’s warning he left his office
and the city. He had assured his creditors
here that he would not leave New York un
til everything was settled. They believed
him. lie declared to one of them that he
would “do right though the heavens fall.” I
It was so like a man holding his
position would say and act upon that he
also believed him. Mr, Williams seated
while here that he was worth $1,500,000.
Yet he leaves I’JSOjOOO unpaid, and reck
lessly subjects his standing as a merchant,
which by some means he raised to a height
not exceeded by any iu the Southern States,
at least, to question. He now attempts to
repudiate the result of his contracts, resorts
to cunning and a6ks his neighbors, perhaps
some of them these same cqstomers, for
whom he forced premature settlement of
contracts at such heavy loss, to endorse his
conduct.
“It is pertinent to a controversy invited,
as this h 6 been by him, to say that his pub
lic reference to Mr. Wm. Birnie as eoneerp
ing their creditors, is simply an imperti
nence, and evidently intended to be given
out as a case of ‘wicked partner.’
“It Is quite probable that Mr. Birnie spe
culated in contracts, but neither buyers nor
sellers are necessarily speculators, and as
to how that may be In this case, their credi
tors knew nothing. That Mr. Williams has
speculated in them may be shown by the
fact that 4e personally ordered and had exe
cuted sales of ten thousand bales on this
exchange the day following the dissolution
of his late firm here, and while he was send
ing telegrams ot the kind already men
tioned. But 1 have now given as much—
perhaps more than is of interest to the pub
lic—of this matter. That Mr. Williams has
made a mistake is evident, and to
that he is badly advised does not 6olve it.
The Rest 1* the Cheapeftt—Where to
Go.
The well stocked millinery establishment
of H. C. Houston, on Congress street,
the general rendezvous, so to speak, of the
fair sex who are in search of the various
articles necessary to the adornment of lovely
woman. It is a well known fact that ladles
very seldom are imposed upon in purchases,
and quickly learn where the very
best quality of goods can be ob
tained. They know that it is always
best to pay a reasonable amount for a first
class article, than to “make a bargain” by
securing something which in reality is not
worth half the low price at which it may be
offered. Hence the fair ones have long since
learned that they can always obtain
the handsomest, most fashionable and
elegant goods in the millinery lines, and
at fair prices, at Houston’s, and therefore
seek it. At present the stock embraces
ever}' necessary thing for feminine wear, the
useful and the ornamental, and Mr. Houston
has marked them at very reasonable terms.
It would be almost an impossibility to
enumerate the many rare and beautiful
articles so tastefully displayed. If you, fair
reader, desire anything in this line, do not
fail to call upon Houston, and you will
surely be suited, and cannot be other than
satisfied. je!6 tf
