Arrival Home of tbe Ocletborpes.
The Oglethorpe Light Infantry, who have
been on a pleasure trip to Athens and Tal
lulah Falls, reached home yesterday morn
ing at six o’clock by special train via the
Port Royal Railroad. They were received
at the depot by the members of the company
who remained here, under command of
Lieut. J. C. Bruyn, and the Savannah Ca
dets, and escorted to their armory on Rey
nolds square, where they were re
galed with a substantial repast provided
by the Cadets, and which was dis
cussed by the hungry returned “veter-
with keen relish. The excursionists
were in excellent spirits and look greatly
benefited by their trip, which they pro
nounce one of the most enjoyable they have
ever made. The compauy are warm in their
praises of the courtesies and hospitalities of
the Athens soldiery and citizens generally,
and especially enthusiastic concerning the
beauty and grace of the fair daughters of
that section. The Guards Band, which ac-
coinpauied them throughout the trip, on
reaching the armory, very appropriately
played the beautiful melody, “Home, Sweet
Home.”
Excitement at tbe Exchange Dock,
About five o’clock yesterday afternoon
considerable excitement was created on the
wharf at the Exchange dock by a fracas be
tween a negro woman and a negro man
commanding a watermelon boat. The casus
belli was not stated, bat the action of the
parties indicated no little bad feeling. The
woman prepared for the combat which fol
lowed the passage of words, by seizing a
rock and advancing upon the man,
who thereupon produced the blade
of a razor and charged his fe
male antagonist, putting her to flight,
threatening to carve her to mince meat.
After pursuing her a short distance along
the wharf the fellow abandoned the chase,
with the muttered remark: “I’se a bad Dig
ger when I get my mad up, and would cut
dat ’oman fur shuah and slip down de rib-
ber to Tybee v har dey couldn’t cotch me.”
The affair attracted quite a crowd of in
terested colored spectators, and the situa
tion for * time was quite lively, but no po
liceman appearing there was no arrest..
Discovered I11 Ibe Act A Burglar
Captured.
Last night about ten o’clock the watch
man on Deltenue'a block, north side ft Bay
street, opposite the post office, discovered a
Degro industriously engaged in eeiueijdli^
the locks of the doors of the warehouses un
der the lower platforms. As this proceeding
was rather suspicions, the watchman hailed
the dusky trooper, who, without
deigniDg to give a reply- '^r’ed
off rapidly, pursued liy tie watchman,
who ran along the staging above, inti.fi-
patinf a flank movement on the part of tne
darkey, the watchman posted himself advan
tageously, and os lack would have it, the
negro ran plumb upon him and was secured.
The watchman then sprunghls rattle, which
brought'to his assistance Policeman Horton,
who waltzed the enterprising “moonlight
mechanic” off to the barracks, where he
gave his name as Robert Miller, and was
registered as a suspicious character.

A worthy young gentleman of this city,
whilst attending the celebration of mass at
the SL Patrick’s Church yesterday morning,

STRUGGLE
Capture of x Lot of Stolen Good*.
On Saturday tifght shortly after 10 o’clock
as Policeman Owen Reilly, one of the most
efficient members of our excellent force,
was conversing with two friends at the cor
ner of Montgomery and Charlton streets, he
noticed a negro with a large sack on his
shoulder, sneaking stealthily along the oppo
site sidewalk, evidently desirous of avoiding
observation. Policeman Reilly was off duty
at the time and unfortunately was unarmed,
but believing from the suspicious move
ments of the negro that he was guilty of
some crime be started for him. The darkey,
finding it impossible to get out of the way,
determined to make a fight, and, turning
savagely on the officer, endeavored to cut
him with a large knife. Mr. Reilly
avoided the stroke, and dealt the
fellow a blow with his fist which
knocked him off his pins, and would have
secured him but for the interference of seve
ral negroes, who came rushing up, appa
rently with the Intention of assisting the
rascal. In the confusion that followed the
negro escaped, bat left his bag, a large corn
sack, behind. This was carried by Police
man Reilly to the barracks, where it
was examined and found to contain a suit
of clothes, several fine white shirts marked
“C. M.,” a lot of underclothes, and a quan
tity of writing paper, lead pencils, jars of
jellies, cans of condensed milk, canned
fruits, several plugs of tobacco, cigars,
bags of smoking tobacco, in fact
the stock of a regular variety shop.
There was also a letter addressed to “My
dear Ida.” The goods are now at the police
barracks, where they will be retained for
identification. Evidently, some small 6tore
was raided upon by this enterprising sneak
thief, after he had* favored some bed room
with a call.

National Cotton Exchange Conven
tion.
The convention of the National Cotton
Exchange of America will assemble at New
York on Wednesday next, 13th Inst. The
first place selected for holding this conven
tion was St. Louis, and we are informed the
St. ’Louis Cotton Exchange was making ex
tensive preparations to entertain the delega
tion, but in consequence of the breaking
out of yellow fever In Memphis, and the es
tablishment of rigid quarantine against that
city, it was thought advisable to change
the place of meeting to New York or White
Sulphur, Virginia, in order to secure a fall
delegation from ail the Exchanges. Of the
two places proposed, the Executive Council
selected New York. The following delega
tion will represent the Savannah Cotton Ex
change;
Captain W. W- Qordoq. Captain J, F.
Wheaton, Messrs. M. Hamilton, Jas. H.
Johnston, B. A. Hart, R. W. Woodbridge, F.
R. Sweat.
The Savannah Exchange is entitled to
seven delegates upon the basi3 of cotton re
ceipts for the season of 1877-78. Captain
Gordon, in addition to being a delegate, is
also a member of the Executive Council of
the National Cotton Exchange.
Messrs. Hamilton, Johnston and Wood-
bridge are North at present. Messrs.
Wheaton, Sweat and Hart took their de
parture by the steamship City of Savannah
Saturday, and Capt. Gordon left by rail
yesterday.

LOCAL LEGISLATION.
The Protest of the City Authorities
Against the Bill PeeTarlng It Illegal
for Judge of a Clty Court to Mold
other City Office.
The following copy of a protest which
has just been forwarded to a member of
the Chatham delegation requires no expla
nation, being explicit and to the point:
To the General Assembly of the Stale of
Georgia:
The Mayor and Aldermen of the city of
Savannah have learned that a bill has been
introduced In the House of Representatives
to prevent the Judge of any City Court
from being also Corporation or City At
torney, or to hold any other office under
the city. As the same person does not hold
the same office in any other city, so far as
known to your memorialists, the bill is evi
dently an attempt to get the Legislature to
undo the action of the city -authorities of
Savannah without their consent, and against
their will. It is purely and entirely a local
and special bill, affecting no other com
munity in the State, introduced under the
gnise of: general legislation, to avoid, it
would seem, the publicity required under
such circumstances by the constitution, in
order that the community to be affected
may have an opportunity to express its
views. The facts of the case are these: In
1877, desiring to economize as much as
possible in order to be the better able to
carry oat its compromise with its creditors,
the City Council determined to reduce the
salary of the Corporation Attorney from
$1,800 to $750 per annum, and to elect the
same person Judge of the City Court and
Corporation Attorney, as the combined sala
ries, $2,750, would enable them to obtain a
competent lawyer for both positions. This
determination had been arrived at after
consultation with many of the most promi
nent lawyers in the city. There could be
no legal objection to the plaD, as the Jndge
of the City Court, ever since that court had
been organized in 1819, had practiced in all
other courts except his own. The only
practical objection urged was that it would
necessitate the employment of other counsel
to defend the city in case it was sued in the
City Court, and would also disqualify the
Judge from presiding in such cases. It
was* thought by the city authorities
that the . employment .jot-i another at
torney for such special cases would
not make any material difference,
as it had been the custom of the city from
time immemorial to employ, when it seemed
advisable, other counsel than its regular at
torney, and the disqualification of the Jndge
was thought to be unimportant, because,
First, the constitution provides that where
the City Court Judge is disqualified the
Judge of the Superior Court may preside in
his place. Second, the law permits the par
ties to select an attorney as Judge pro hac
vice in cases where the Judge is disqualified.
Third, the Judge, though commissioned by
the Governor, is elected and paid by the
city, and is almost invariably a candidate
for re-election, and therefore should be con
sidered disqualified to preside in cases
against the city, whether he be Corporation
Attorney or not. Fourth, the Superior Court
is open to all who wish to sue the city, and
that is the court in which all such cases
should be brought.
The city elected the present Judge for the
teim of three years, and elected him Corpo
ration Attorney for the term of one year.
Being satisfied with the result of the ex
periment, they unanimously re-elected him
for another year,' in spite of the fact that he
was not Of candidate for the office, and had
Informed the various members of Council
that while he would accept the office he
did not want it. The re-election was be
cause, in the unanimous opinion of the then
Council, after a year’s experience, it was
for the interest of the city that it should be
done, and after seven more months expert
ence, it is the opinion of a majority of the
present City Council that the present ar
rangement is the best for* the interest of the
citizens at large.
Should the present Council change its
views, or should any future Council have
different ideas on the subject, there will be
no difficulty in changing tbe plan, the pres
ent incumbent having officially notified
Council that he is anxious to give up the
office whenever Council is willing to relieve
him. A copY of his communication Is at
tached to this memorial.
Although this bill has been introduced In
the Legislature for some days, your memo
rialists had no notice of it, nor have they
seen the bill, and their knowledge of its na
ture is confined to the : brief notice of the
proceedings in the Constitution, which Is as
as follows:
Mr. Adams.—To declare it to be illegal
for any Judge of a City Court to be Corpo
ration Counsel,or hold any other office under
the city. Referred to Committee on tbe Jn-
diciary;” and the statement of the origina
tor of the bill, Alderman Montmollin, made
in open Council at the meeting at which this
memorial was ordered to he prepared, that it
made no difference whether Council pro
tested or not, the bill would pass without
reference to its wishes. But your memori
alists do nqt share his belief, and therefore
respectfully request that your honorable
body will permit them in this matter, as it
permits them in matters of vastly greater
importance, to use their discretion for the
best interests of the people whose servants
they are, and most respectfully protest
against being hampered in the appointment
of officers to serve under them, or in the
selection of a legal adviser.
I fully concur in the above protest,
JonN F. Wheaton, Mayor.
D. G. PuRSE r Chairman.

A Negro’s Guilty Conscience Causes
Him to Make an Unprovoked As
sault.
Between seven and eight o’clock Saturday
evening, two colored men, Lawrencp and
David Daniels, from Effingham county,
who had brought a load of wood down
the canal to the city, were savagely
assaulted by a negro named
8cott, without any provocation. It appears,
however, that Scott had recently been in a
difficulty, in which he was the aggressor,
and as the brothers Daniels were tramping
behind him his guilty conscience caused him
to imagine that they were following him.
The Daniels continued on up to the city,
and ‘when near the corner of Canal and In
dian streets Scott suddenly turned upon them
aqd strapk I^vld a terri^e blow on
the back of the head with a rock or blnnt
instrument, inflicting a serious if not dan
gerous wound, and knocking him down,
lis brother Lawrence ran forward to assist
him, when Scott struck him on the side of
the head, completely prostrating him, and
then fled. The wounded men, with diffi
culty, made their way to the office of Dr.
Sheftall, where their injuries were properly
dressed.

or Hope.
There will be a grand regatta at Tybee
Island on Thursday, August Slst, sailing
under the rules and auspices of the Savan
nah Regatta Association. The following

anticipated.
After the regatta the boats will be towed
to Isle of Hope, where another regatta will
take place. The two regattas being so con-
venipntjy arranged, coming off in successive
days, will, no doqbt, draw a large crowd
from Charleston^ Brunswick an4 the interior.
Capture of TkleVes on Hip Hlver t
Late on Friday night the attention of Po
liceman Malone was directed to a negro in a
large row boat, laden with goods, on the river
near the foot of Ferry dock. Suspectii'^
goiueihl^g uqrqnj the officer hailed the
rower, and eaused him to come (n to
shore, when he discovered that tbe
sacks were filled with corn, and the darkey
could give no satisfactory account of how
he came into possession of them. Tbe in
dividual was taken into custody and his de
tention led to the apprehension of
George Ellis, Aleck Brown, James
Brown, and Aleck Smith, members of tf gang
pf river pirates. These “worthies,” it
seeiqS, had succeeded in stealing thirty-six
sacks of corn from the wtjarf of Cunning
ham & Hewes, being the property ’ hi S. G.
Haynes & Bro. Tne leader of the gang,Paul
Johnson, succeeded in evading capture,
but the others were lodged in the
barracks for the night, and Saturday morn
ing were taken before Magistrate Molina on
a warrant, where, after an examination,
they were committed to jail to await trial
before the Superior Court.
The indications are that Savannah will
have an unusually brilliant theatrical season,
as a number of first-class companies have
been booked, and inquiries for dates at our
Theatre are being daily received.
Another pleasant prospect* for our play
goers to contemplate is the improvement
that will be made In the Theatre before the
season is fairly inaugurated. As has been
stated, the old dilapidated benches in the
parquette and dress circle are to he removed,
and convenient, comfortable, perforated,
maple wood opera chairs substituted.
Below we give a list of the companies
already booked:

THE COTTON CROP.
Report for July.
We have received from the Committee on
Information and Statistics of the Savannah
Cotton Exchange tbe following report for
the month of July, condensed from the re
plies of correspondents from sections allotted
them by the National Cotton Exchange:
GEORGIA—SEVENTY-EIGHT REPLIES PROM
FIFTY COUNTIES.
The dry spell which did.some injury to
the cotton plant In Jane, has been relieved
by very general rain, which although exces
sive in a few sections, has to a great extent
repaired the damage done by the drought.
As compared with last year, the weather
has not been quite so good, and the crop is
less forward; but the stands- are excellent,
and the plant vigorous in its growth, is
blooming and fruitlDg well. Under these
circumstances the prospect for this season,
scarcely so promising early in the mouth
as the last, has materially improved and is
now very satisfactory. The complaint of
caterpillars is exceptional, and they seem to
be doing little harm.
FLORIDA—TWENTY-NINE REPLIES PROM
FOURTEEN COUNTIES.
There has bees ample rain during the
month, and some improvement in the crops,
which is nevertheless not fully up to the
standard at this date last year. The stands
are, however, good; the plant though small,
and in a few instances shedding, is healthy
and strong, well fruited, and fall of blooms,
quite capable with a continuance of favor
able weather to recover from all its draw
backs. The caterpillars, still noticed in a
few localities, have done no material harm.
The sea island section has been fortunate
in having very seasonable showers, and the
condition and prospects of the crop are
considerably better than at this time last
year.
Fashion Rots.
Banting balmorals are shown for summer
wear.
Eve wac tbe first woman who went to the
devil.
All muslin gowns are made with elbow
sleeves.
There are silk gloves now with ten but

some ladies. .
Some satin gowns have no waist except a
batiste jacket.
Short dresses for dancing are slightly
drabbed.
Crosswise shirring are worn on some apron
overskirts.
The JaspeP Monument.
The monthly meeting of the Jasper Monu
mental Association was held Saturday even
ing. Honorary Vice Presidents were appoint
ed in several cities and the Corresponding
Secretary requested to notify them. A com
mittee was appointed to wait on the Street
and Lane Committee of City Council and
learn their decision in regard to the location
of tfcp monument. Auother committee was
appointed to obtain estimates for the
foundation and the comer stqng. After
transacting other business tbe association
