OUR QUARANT1NK SYSTEM.
Tlic Importance of Rigid Regula
tions#
On the 2Gth of July the Spanish brig
Trinidad arrived at quarantine from Ha
vana, after a voyage of eight days, and ou
Wednesday las: she came up to the city—
twenty dais after leaving the pestilence-
stricken and fever-breeding capital of Cuba,
from which vessels are now daily arriving
at other ports on the Atlantic coast with
fever on board. The vessel discharged
her ballast and was fumigated at
the quarantine station, and has had no
sickness aboard, but in view of the fact
that the theory of the destruction of the
germs of this dread disease, by the various
methods now used, has been very rqdely
shaken, would It not be well to detain such
vessels until every possible chance of infec
tion is removed beyond a doubt. Savannah
has too much at stake to take any risk in
this matter, and the strictost quarantine
should be maintained against vessels from
Havana and other Infected West Indian
ports.
The bark Van ad is, which arrived in port
from lionflcur, France, a health}* place, on
the 3d iust., after a voyage of thirty-nine
days, was detained at quarantine a couple
of days, when &he was allowed to coine to
the city. After she had commenced dk,-
chargicg her ballast it was discovered that
it emitted a bad odor, probably from bilge-
water, and she was sent back to the quar
antiue station ou the same day the Trinidad
was allowed to come up. Here .theu is
apparently exemplified either too great or
too little precaution.
Another matter that has been brought to
our attention i* the law requlriug all vessels
to stop at quarantine and be inspected.
This regulation often results in the unneces
sary deiputiou of yessels. au^ the evil could
be remedied by having a boat well manned to
board them as they are sailing by. The
commerce of our city requires every facility
and its health every safeguard.
Madame SoauotvekPs Home School•
We call attention to the advertisement,pub
lished elsewhere, of the above named school
for young ladies, located In Athens, Ga.,
and of which Madame B. SoanowskI and
Miss C. Sosnovyki are the associate princi
pals. It is situated in a remarkably healthy
climate, it is conducted in the most efficient
manner by the ladles who have It In charge,
aDd whose main idea is to make it truly
what its name implies—a home as well as a
school. The course pf instruction is ex
ceedingly thorough, an;! we Z** 1 ' sincerely
recommend it to those of out readers who
have daughters whom they desire to be well
educated. Some of the best names known
to our S:ate are to be foutd in the list of
these who iiavb been its patrons in the past,
*nionc which is that of IU. Rev. Bishop
Beckwith, who endorses it most highly.
The circular which the principals will scud
to any one on application gives full particu
lars concerning the school.
City Bonds.
The Sinking Fund Comm’saion on the 5th
opened bids for supplying city of 8avannah
5 per cent, bonds, ex-August coupons, a6
follows, at 69, G9%, 70.' The bid of Major
A. L. Hartridge at 69 was accepted for
$3,700 of bonds. He yesterday delivered
Nos. 955,1,355 and 1,358 for $1,000 each, No.
1 409 for $500 and Nos. 103 and 104 for $100
each'. They, witli all unmatured coupons,
were carefully cancelled and dellyefed to
the acting City Treasurer on his receipt, for
such final instruction as Council may dj
rect.
Painfully Injured*
Yesterday afUrnoon Willie Harris, s
youth, severely cut his left hand by falling
upon & ’jrokeu bottle In a boat at the Mar

office of Dr. T. B. Chisholm, where the hand
was dres-cd. The injury, though painful, U
cot dangerous.

An Interestlne Occasion.
The entertainment at the Metropolitan
Hall last evening, under the auspices of
Stonewall and Friendship Divisions, Sons of
Temperance, was a pleasant and successful
inauguration of the series these organiza
tions propose giving during the season.
The hall was comfortably filled, and the
representation of the fair sex was flattering.
The exercises were opened by a few in
troductory remarks from Mr. Louis L. Cars
well, as follow*:
Ladies and GentUmen: By way of intro
ductory it becomes my duty as Chairman of
this Joint Committee of the Sons of Tem
perance, under whose auspices this enter
tainment is to be conducted, to give you
some idea of the objects of such an enter
tainment. It is very generally known that
temperance organizations have existed here
for some time. Yet few who are not mem
bers of the order feel any interest In what
we are trying to accomplish; nor can we
make our cause interesting to you by re
maining quietly to ourselves and depending
upon some mysterious agent to represent us
abroad. Therefore, by arranging these in
teresting and pleasant little entertainments
we hope, with your attendance and atten
tion, to overcome your prejudices and to
gain your influence and co-operation.
“In closing Mr. Carswell presented to tbre
audience Mr. J. B. G. O’Neill, Grand Sc/ibc
of the State of Georgia, who delivered a very
interesting address, advocating in power
ful arguments the Inestimable benefit^ to
mankind of the temperance cause, wAlch
was listened - to with deep attention.
closing his address Mr. O’Neill made the
following appeal to his hearers:
“Will you give up a supposed luxury to
help in saving others from a blasting curse ?
If you do not help, strive not to hinder.
Call not those fanatics who would clear
their consciences from every taict of so
dangerous an example. To vou we look
for an answer. Will you take tbe field for
temperance against this great foe, intem
perance? Then rise up in your might,
young man, young woman, and with what
ever instrument you may be skilled hurl
it against this foe of God and man, and
soon will the purity pf motive and determi
nation of action wash away the stain of
black intemperance.
“We have every hope for the future. If we
have not been able to save all, we have at
least doue some good. Many who have been
too weak and are still grovelling to public
opinion are scattering sparks of encourage
ment, and stand ready to cheer us on our
first decided victory. The Legislature has
not listened to us yet, and thus the work Is
not done; but much is being done. Laws
preventing cruelty to auimals have been
enacted. Ocly lately our much esteemed
fellow citizen of the Senate, the Hon. Rufus
E. Lester, has introduced a bill for the pre
vention of cruelty to children. Is this
not significant? Everything is tending to the
emancipation of the human race of all
vices that make devils of men. The 8tate
Is being aroused from its desperate con
dition of lethargy on this subject. While
there has been no direct attack on alcohol,
the signs of the times point vividly to that
end. If they do not pass temperance meas
ures now they will do it when we come
with an army of temperance men and women
pounding upon their doors. We shall see
the fiery finger of scorn shrivelling the
falsehoods fro pi the souls of men. Then
will the great day of freedqm from this ter
rible evil have dawned, and the warm rays
of the sun will foster in perpetual honor
and greatness the name of our noble order.”
At the close of these remarks tbe audi
ence testified their appreciation by hearty
applause.
The choir, consisting of Mrs. W. C. Lyon,
Miss Cora Elkins and Messrs. J. G. and W.
E. Swanston, with Mr. Charles A. noyt, or
ganist, rendered with fine effect “ My Soul
doth Live In Thee.” The music, we may
here remark, was excellent, and highly en
joyed.
Worthy Patriarch H. G. Everitt, of Friend
ship Division, read a poem, whkffi was well
received, after which the cho^sang “The
Pilot.”
Mr. J. M. Harrison, of Friendship Lodge,
then read an appropriate piece, fo’lowed by
the choir singiug “Let Me to Thy Bosom
Fly.”
The exercises were brought to a close by
an address by Mr. A. N. Manucy, Grand
Sentinel of the State of Georgia, which was
a remarkably line effort and called forth the
warmest encomiums of all.

XUB0EB IN THE CAMP OP THE
STEPPED BOTS.
ESCAPE OF TWO CONVICTS AF
TER VIGOROUS PURSUIT,
A “Trusty” In Protecting tbe Over
seer la Killed.
The convict camp on HutchJnaon’a Island,
opposite the city, was, late on Wednesday
evening, the scene of terrible commotion,
attendant upon tbe successful efforts of two
negro convict* to escape. Tbe news of the
affair was not current in the city until early
yesterday morning, owing to the fact that
the torUe for liberty wm msde a
quarter of a mile from the camp,
located near the centre of tbe island, and
communication with the city is irregular.
During the day, however, rumor was busy,
and the occurrence, although tragical in its
resuite, was magnified to an insurrection of
the convicts, and the killing of several of
tbe guards.. Upon'Investigation tbe follow
ing facts were developed:
Stiles Bulges and Lorenza LiUejohn,
both negroes, had been sick and were on
tbe convalescent list. Their general con
duct being good, they were relieved of their
shackles and allowed the liberty of the
yard, being in charge of the hospital stew
ard.
THE ATTEMPT.
About six o’clock on Wednesday
just before “knocking off’’work, Burges
managed to secure a loaded double- barrel
jpzn from tbe guards’ tent, aud suddenly
presenting it at tbe breast of tbe steward,
ordered Aiim Into tbe “jail” (the place
reserved for imprisonment),' threat
ening to blow £ts . head off if
he offered resistance. He also threat
ened to shoot three negro convict women
if they did not keep quiet. The
women, however, avoided him, and running
out, sounded the alarm, which attracted the
attention of the overseer, who started In
pursuit ot Burges and the other convict
named Lorenza Littlejohn, who at the first
cry fled In the direction of Back river.
Several of the convicts followed in the pur
suit and endeavored to stop, the fugitives.
The overseer, who unfortunately was un
armed, succeeded in overtaking Burges,
who then turned and threatened to kill him
if he advanced a step further, and raised
the gnn to fire. Tbe overseer, Thomas Has
kins, was compelled to retreat, when Bur
ges pursued him, and would have fired
upon him, bad not two of the convicts
rushed in directly between them, compelling
him to withhold his fire.
ULEW ms BRAINS OUT.
While Burges was endeavoring to get
a shot at Haskins, a negro convict,
named Frince Wrett, approached him,
calling out to him at the same
time not to shoot, and apparently was
striving to get near enough to Burges
to secure him. When Wrett was within
about thirty feet of Burges the latter lev
eled the gun and discharged It, literally
blowing the poor fellow’s brains out, the
entire luad entering his head. Burges then
decamped, and succeeded in reaching the
river and effecting his escape.
During this excitement Lorenza Little
john, who it is inferred was informed
in regard to the determination of
Burges to endeavor to regain his lib
erty, effected his escape. It is
thought both the convicts succeeded in
grossing Back river during the night, and
landing safely in Soutn Carolina. A
thorough •earefi of tbe Island was made yes
terday, but up to dark not* a trace could be
found of them.
THE MURDERED CONVICT.
Prince Wrett, the unfortunate convict
who was murdered .in his attempt to save
the life of the overseer and capture Burges,
was about 30 years of age. He was under
going a sentence of fiye years, having been
convicted in Chatham Superior Court for
larceny of rough rice from Haskell’s plan
tation, and had only one month loDger to
serve. The overseer states that he was a
peaceable, quiet negro, and gave no trouble
whateyerj being allowed certain liberties,
anq was regarded ip camp parlaucp as a
“trusty.” lie was buripd of tne Island.
INQUEST.
Coroner Sheftall was notified, and pi
cceding to tbe island at 12 o’clock, held
inquest upon the body of PriDce Wrett,
when the following sworn statements of the
affair were obtained:
Thomas J. Haskins sworn and testified :
A little after six o’clock yesterday evening
I bad Loren sa Littlejohn and Stiles Burges,
who complaiued of being sick, In the hospi
tal or convalescent camp; I was going down
to the field to attend to having some work
done; I ' gave'orders to a trian named Tom
Miller, wfm Ua^ ebargp pf’thc'pamp tdhave

for safe keeping; a little while after 4. left
the camp'4 h&ard'a hallooing by Miller and
several women !p Ifie camp cooking; I saw
two men Winning and look several trusty
men with me; I ran across the plantation to
cut the escaped men off, which I did; sev
eral of the trusty men ran ahead of me,
when Stiles Burges, one of the escaped
men, jumped cut of the grass at the edge
of a ditch with a double barreled gun in his
bands: cocking the same in front of me and
said to me, “I have got you at last;
you are the G—d d—d s—u of a b—h I
want; I wilj kill you before I leave the
ltdand;” he run me about one hundred and
fifty yards, a trusty man being between
Burges and myself, prevailing upon Burges
not to shoot me; I turned and lost 3lgfit fcf
Burges and the other then;' $ heurd the re
port of a gun from the direction of Burges,
soon after which I went back aud saw
Prince Wrett, colored, the deceased, lying
on the ground dead; Prince Wrett was con

The extraordinarily large proportion of
children, which, at certain seasons of the
year swells the mortality of the city, calls
for the adoption of every possible means to
check it, firstly on humanitarian principles,
and secondly for interested motives. The
first will appeal to the individual instincts
and affections of the friends and relatives
of the little sufferers, and therefore it is un
necessary to speak of this further. The
second, however, touches directly the busi
ness interests and the prosperity of the
city, for no stranger reading the mortuary
reports will stop to inquire whether the
names found there belonged to infants or
to adults, to blacks or to whites.
*Tbe great majority of the deaths referred
to arise from diseases of the class known as
“zymotic,” called also by sanitarians “ex-
cremental,” or “filth diseases,” and the
term “Herodian” has also been applied to
them on account of the frightful mortality
they occasion among children. They are in
fact the diseases which are originated or
propagated in some myiterima way by de
caying organic or excrementltious matter.
Tbe adjective mysterious is here employed
because to a certain extent tbe medium of
propagation has not been actuaUy demon
strated. Chemical analysis will not show it,
but certain laws which govern it are well
understood and universaBy acknowledged.
Among these Is tbe fact that a temperature
within certain thermometric limits is neces
sary for its existence, and that extremes of
heat and probably of cold destroy the vi
tality ot the poison.
Prominent among the diseases referred to
are typhoid fever, certain forms of diarrhcea,
notably cholera Infantum, scarlet fever,
diphtheria, certain pneumonias, and perhaps
cerebro-spinal meningitis, etc., etc.
The prfncipaljuedia through which the
septic poison finds an entrance into the sys
tem are the air, the food and the drink.
The sanitation of the air is a qncstlon be
yond the scope of this paper. The food Is
generally cooked and so rendered innoxious.
The drink it is to which I would desire
chiefly to direct attention.
Of course the principal fluid consumed by
children a3 well as adults is water. All the
water supplied to Savannah Is to a greater
or less extent Impure, and although this
matter is engaging the attention of our
authorities, it is very questionable to my
mind if really pure w«ter can ever be sup
plied to this city except at such an enor
mous expense as to reader it practically im
possible for a long time to come, but it is
quite reasonable to think that Individuals
might, by sinking weBs below tne hard-pan
which lies underneath the city, obtain a
supply of water free from sewage contami
nation.
With the water at present supplied there
is still a remedy, which Is within tbe reach
of every individual lu the community, high
and low, rich and poor, alike. It Is simply
to use no water which has not first been
recently boiled. Of course it can be sub
sequently cooled to suit tbe taste or require
ments of the consumer, but whether used
hot or cold, let all drinking water be boiled.
Some might prefer the addition of a little
sugar*.
Thp precaution just suggested is especially
irnpt ftant among children In whom the ab
sorbent system is partlculaily active and the
nervous susceptibility is at its maximum,
while the resisting power and constitutional
strength is at a low ebb, nor have they the
advantage of the protecting influence or pre
vious attacks ot the many diseases in which
this gives more or less immunity fretp the
effects of subsequent exposures. It is par
ticularly desirable that in hot weather this
suggestion should be acted upon, because,
at this season, more water is consumed and
the poison Is most active.
The preparation ar.d care of the milk as a
question of domestic sanitation may be
tnafje the subject - of another paper, and in
the meantime I would like to Insist that all
water used fur drinking pun.xxes should be
boiled.
FOR THE FLORIDA TRADE.
A Splendid Passenger and Freight
Steamer.
We bear it rumored that the contract will
shortly be signed for the building of a splen
did steamer by tbe Qcean Steamship Com
pany of gayannab, for {be Atlantic and
Gulf Railroad Company, ttrhUih will be run
between Savannah and Jacksonville and
Palstka, Florida, In connection with
the doe steamships of the former company.
It is difficult to definitely obtain any of the
details of the proposed new line, as we hear
all the arrangements are not folly completed,
but from the reports current it may be safe
ly Inferred that the steamer will be
built and completed for delivery by
the first of December. We understand that
tbe plans provide for a first class steamer in
every respect, especially adapted for the
Inride route, and admirably Suited for pas
senger and freight traffic. •
She is to be 1 feet long, 7 feet depth of
bold, 5o feet beam, and 51 feet 0 Inches over
all, with a cabin 140 feet long, provided with
40 6tatc rooms, 14 feet wide, and a social
hall 25 feet by 2G feet. Her boiler deck and
hurricane roof will extend to the 6tem of
the boat. She Is to have two condensing
engines, 24 inches diameter of cylinder,
8 feet stroke, and two cast-steel fire box
boilers are to be placed' ~op‘ fca(ih ride,
leaving her )ow - ^f detfk Unobstructed to
aftCr which will contain 8 rooms.
The texas will contain nine roams, and
passenger accommodations will be ample
for one hundred and twenty-five people. The
speed of the new steamer, it is re ported,will
be not less than fourteen miles per
hour and her draft of Water wjli be light—
40 inches. The sUataef will 6e‘built at
Pittsburg, by Cfamcs'Rees, and will, it is re
ported; be handsomely upholstered and fur
nished, and a deeded 'kcqafe&QQ to our
the present year a splendid boat-for the In
side route to Florida.
Natural mineral Water.
From Galignani's Messenger.
The Importance of easy and Cv^afortable
digestion Is a fact which corner home tp
every ope, anfi o.nty top many people know
by experience the serious uneasiness caused
by any difficulty In digesting the food eaten.
In all probability dyspepsia Is the source of
innumerable diseases with which the medi
cal profession has to contend, and doctors
have at all times turned their attention to
assisting the ntotpach qurlng meal times,
jnnuui&rapie preparations have been recom
menced for this purpose, but none hay£eyer
found so much favor a* uj^eral waters,
those, foy instance, of Selte^s, Fachlngen,

Such Is apt the 'however, with the wa
ter oi yhe Apoljfnaris Spring, !& the valley of
Ahr, Rhenish Prussia- The valuable prop
erties of this water were discovered about
twcDty-nve years ago by Dr. Biscbof, tbe
eminent Professor of Geology at Boon, who
himself superintended the borings and the
erection of the buildings and machinery for
bottling the water. The operations are con
tinue! by his son, with certain improve
ments. in order to Insure that the liquid
should reach the consumer in exactly the
same state as that in which it exists in the
spring itself. Dr. Hoffman, who has care
fully analyzed It, states that wl^eu delivered
to the consumer It fcdnwns’precisely tbe
same amount of carbonic add as when in
the spring. While most other natural min
