HOW PKOPEB VENTILATION AND PERFECT DRAIN.
AGB MAY BE SECURED.
The subject of hygienic arrangements in
the construction of private dwellings is one
that excites considerable and interested
discussion in this community. The matter
is of vast importance, and anything pertain
ing thereto will be appreciated and care
fully reflected upon by every person who
realizes the importance of measures calcu
lated to insure the preservation of
the public health. In our city the
existence and use of dry wells (con
nected with sleeping apartments by
defective conduit pipes) has long been re
garded as deleterious to health, and yet It is
well known that there are many in this city,
and that in uot a few cases serious and fa
tally contagious diseases have been directly
traced to the escape of poisonous gases
from these wells and from defective
plumbing, lack of ventilation and
thorough drainage. Hence the sub
ject of sanitation iu this respect
has excited more than usual attention, and
any ^suggestions or recommendations are
worthy of serious reflection. Public Inter
est has already beeu aroused by the discus
sions in Council In reference to thorough
ventilation of private dwellings and
the necessity of perfect drainage, espe
cially where the “molern conveuieuces’’
are provided. The value of securing
to our p'-ople all the requirements of physi
cal health canuot be overestimated,
and the agitation of the subject is
both essential and wise. Great
interest has been cumulated, and on nu
merous occasions the columns of the Mors
ing News have been devoted to the publi
cation of the suggestions of those who have
given this important hygienic matter thor
ough ami practical consideration.
We present this morning an illustration
of a plau of drainage for city dwellings,
applicable to either dry wells or sewer con
nection, aud upnu wh*ch there is no patent,
together with an excellent and lucid ex
pi an a to ry article from the Sanitary Engineer,
to which we invite the serious attention of
our sanitary authorities:
Iu the light of. present knowledge, the
following t-eems to us the essential require
ments for the drainage of every house.
Time and further experience may suggest
other features or modifications of these.
ir« invite our readers to criticise or ask for
more detailed explanation of any section uot
fully understood or concurred in :
♦Every house drain should have an inlet
for fresh air entering at a point inside the
main trap, and carried to a convenient loca
tion out-of-doors, not too near windows.
A trap should be placed on every matn drain
TO disconnect the house from the seiver or
cesspool. In places liable to unusual pres
sure from the sewer it should be a double
trap, with veut from between the two traps,
rutiL-iug up full size above the roof; or,
where the pressure from eewer is
only occasional and the rigor of
climate will permit, this vent may
be carried to the sidewalk or area, at a safe
distance from windows. If the first trap Is
forced, the gas can gain easier exit through
this pipe than through the second.
Every vertical soil or waste pipe should be
extended at least full size through the roof.
No traps should be placed at the foot of
vertical soil pipes to Impede circulation.
Traps should be placed under all sinks,
basins, baths, wash trays, water closets,
etc., aud as near to these fixtures as practi
cable.
tAli traps under fixtures, wherever prac

from pressure occasioned by a descending
column of water that would otherwise be like y
to force the s«-als of these traps. Thu axr
drawn through this inlet to the lower part of
the drainage system ussLsts the circulation
within the drains, and is essential to ensure the
diffusion of the gases generated within them.

ticable, should be separately ventilated in
order to guard against syphonage. Such
vent pipes should not branch Into & soil
pipe below where any drainage enters it.
In some cases it is preferable to carry it to
outer air independently.
Rain water leaders should not be used as
soil pipes, and when connected with house
drains they should be made of cast iron
in preference to galvanized sheet Iron
or tin, there being less liability of
corrosion. Joints should be gas and
water tight, to preclude possibility of drain
air entering open windows.
No safe waste should connect with any
drain, but it should be carried down inde
pendently to a point where a discharge
would indicate the existence of a leak or
any overflow above.
No waste from a refrigerator should be
connected with a drain.
Unless the water supply Is ample,
so that it will rise to every part
of a building, ensuring at all times
the proper flushing of fixtures and
traps, a cistern should be provided into
which the water will rise at night, or into
which it may be pumped. Said cistern
should be large enough to hold an ample
dally supply,/ be kept clean, covered, aud
properly ventilated. The overflow pipe
from It should never bo run into any drain
under any circumstances. The supply for
drinking water should not be drawn from
it, but from a direct supply, i. e., direct
from the street main.
Water closets should not be supplied di
rectly from street pressure or by a pipe
from which branches are taken for drinking
water. Where the valve closets are pre
ferred to those that are supplied from a
small cistern immediately over them, then
the supply should be taken to a storagi
tank, from which it cau be conveyed to th<
valves on the closets, thereby ensuring an
equable pressure and securing more relia
bility in their working.
All drain pipes within a house should be
of metal in preference to stoneware, owing
to the liability of the latter to crack, and
the difficulty of keeping the joints tight
It is best to run them along tbe cellar wall
or ceiling with a good incline. They should
ueier be hidden undeiground, as then leaks
will not bo percep ible. In some places it
is common to paint pipes white po that anv
leakage will show itself to the most careless
observer.
All drains should be kept at all times free
from deposit; and if this cannot be effected
without (lushing, special flushing arrange
meats should be provided 60 as to effectual
ly remove all foul matter from the house
drains to tbe public sewers.
All drains should be laid in a straight
line, with proper falls, and should be
carefully j dated and made water-tight. No
right-angle junction should be allowed, ex
cept in the case of a drain discharging into
a vertical shaft.
No drain should be constructed so as to
pass under a dwelling house, except where
absolutely necessary; and then it should be
constructed of east iron pipes, with lead
caulked joints laid so as to be readily acces
sible for inspection, and ventilated at each
end.
Whenever dampness of 6ite exists, It
should be remedied by laying sub-soii drains,
which should not pass directly to the
sewer, but should have a suitable break or
disconnection.
Water supply and drain pipes should be
concentrated as much a possible, and not
scattered about a building. Horizontal
pipes are objectionable.
Plumbing fixtures should not be hidden
behind walls and partitions where their
condition is never apparent. They ought
properly to be open to view
and so situated thit any
leak would be readily detected. It is alto
well to have a plan of the plumbing of each
house for the tenant’s or owner’s conveni
ence and guidance in any emergency.
Io planning houec drains they should be
got outside the walls of the house as quickly
as possible, so that there may be few joints
of pipe, and the smallest chance of leakage
from defects or accidents; taking proper
precautions in locating to guard against
freezing.

The $300,000 Bond* Endorsed by
the Cl y.
There is now in progress, before the
United States Circuit Court, in this city, a
very important and interesting case, in
which is involved the validity of the en
dorsement by the city of Savannah of $300,-
000 of bonds issued by the Savannah, Al
bany and Gulf Railroad, in aid of that en
terprise. In consequence of the embar
rassments of the Atlantic and Gulf
Railroad, the iuterest on these bonds
was defaulted 6cme three years ago, and
although guaranteed by the endorsement
of the city, has ilever been paid. Iu Janu
ary last the bonds reached maturity, and a
demand upon the city lor their payment was
refused on the ground that the city had no
right to endorse the same, and hence said
endorsement was Invalid. Mr. Eu
gene Kelly, of New York, a
large holder of these bonds, there
upon brought suit iu the United States
Circuit Court to establish the legality of
said eudorrement and to compel tbe pay
men' of the bonds by the city. There was
a difference of opinion in regard to the
matter, and the City Council determined to
contest It, and General A. R. Lawton
aud Judge W. S. Chisholm were retained
as counsel, Capt. George A. Mercer repre
senting the plaintiff.
The files of the Morning News show that
in January, 1&49, a proclamation was issued
by the Mavor convening a public meeting of
the freeholders of tbe city to take action in
regard to the advisability of endorsing the
bonds of tbe Savaunab, Albany and Gulf
Railroad to the amount of three hundred
''sand dollars, which amount was

THE COTTON FACTORY.
Its Probable Pa-chase—The Enter
prise to Be Started with Increased
Facilities.
We are pleased to announce that there is
every prospect of the Arkwright Cotton
Factory resuming operations within a short
time, with increased facilities and backed
by a capital that will assure its complete
success Mr. A. Campbell, a capitalist and
a large manufacturer of Philadelphia, with
whom negotiations for the purchase
of t he factory have been in progress lately,
arrived in the city yesterday morning by the
Savanuah and Charleston Railroad, aud
during the day visited the factory for tbe
purpose of making a thorough inspection
of tbe building and macbluery. Mr. Camp
bell is represented by General A. R Law-
ton. who is preparing the necepsary
papers, perfecting titles, etc. As soon
as the documents are signed and acrep
ted Mr. Campbell proposes to start tbe
factory, employing as far as possible the
old h Gids. He will increase the machinery
of the factory, and will Invest largely to
render It a successful enterprise.
The restarting of this factory, which will
give employment to some sixty five persons,
will be heralded with general satisfaction,
and it is to be hoped that Mr. Campbell, who
is a shrewd, practical business man, will
complete tbe negotiations satisfactorily, and
tbatthe hum of the spinning wheels will
be heard once again.
A HORRIBLE ACCIDENT.
A Han Probably Fatally Injured.
Yesterday morning, between 10 and 11
o’clock, Hunter Price, a colored maD, was
fearfully and probably fatally injured whilst
at work in the Central Railroad yard. He
was on a train that was drilling in
the yard, and was ordered to couple
on another car, which could have been
done with eafety bad he remained
on the platform. Instead, however,
be attempted to jump to the ground, and
made an uufortunate misstep, falling on the
track directly beneath the moving cars, and
the train passed over his leg at the thigh,
nearly severing it, and cutting off a portion
of his side. He was removed to the Geor
gia Infirmary in a terribly mangled
condition, suffering great agony. Dr.
j. C. Habersham was summoned and ren
dered ell Eprgipal aid that was possible.
The unfortunate man also received a severe
cut in the head, and bis condition is con
sidered extremely critical, it being thought
that he could not possibly survive through
the uigbr.
THE SUPREME COURT.
Decisions Rendered November 18
1879—Abridged for tke •*Morning
News” by A. H. MacDonelJ, of tbe
Savanuah Bar.
-from Troup.
Moore vs. Frost et aL Ruli
Warner, C. J.
Tbs plaintiff in error, Moore, obtained _
judgment against Allen, December 11,1873,
for $767 68 with Interest. On December 16,
1873. Allen, with the consent of his wife,
deeded the land to Frost to secure a debt of
$710 which he owed him, the latter execut
ing a bond to reconvey. Frost obtained
judgment on said debt June 2,18“* execut
ed s deed to Allen and wife (Code $3654),
and tbe land was levied upon and sold June
30,1876. Allen’s wife obtained homestead
on tbe land June 10, 1875. The controlling
question Is whether Frost’s fl. fa. is entitled
to be paid In preference to that of Moore.
The deed executed by Allen and wife in
1873 was. a waiver of homestead as against
Frost’s debt. Tbe homestead was good
against Moore’s judgment and 11. fa. It
could not be levied on tbe land, and hence
cannot claim the proceeds of Its sale.
Judgment affirmed.
Warner, C. J., did not preside in the fol
lowing case:
Newman vs. the 8tate. Misdemeanor—from
Muscogee.
Bleckley, J.
An indictment founded upon a statute
which declares that “no person shall permit
any person or persons in bis employ to sell
or furnish to any minor spirituous, or intoxi
cating, or malt liquors of any kind, without
first obtaining written authority from the
parent or guardian of such minor,” where
it negatives authority from the mother only,
and does not aver that she was the sole pa
rent, or that the father was dead, or that
there was no guardian, is insufficient in
alleging want of authority, bad on general
demurrer, and should be quashed.
Judgment reversed.
Vickers vs. Atlanta and We6t Point Railroad
Company. Case—from Campbell.
Blecklet, J.
WUere tne law raises a presumption of
negligence against the defendant, and
owing to special circumstances touching the
engineer’s conduct towards the plaintiff, a
child of ten years of age, it is not altogether
certain that it is rebutted; and where, on
accouut- of the plaintiff’s teuder years aud
immaturity of understanding, he is not
amenable to so high a standard of diligence
as are adult6, the case made by plaintiff’s
evidence is more properly for the jury than
for the court, and a motion for non-6uit
should be denied.
Judgment reversed.
Latham vs. McLaren. Injunction—from
Campbell.
Bleckley, J.
The possessor of land under parol con
tract of Durchase, bnt who paid no part of
the purchase money, is not seized as agaiust
the bolder of the legal title aud those claim
ing under him; and on the death of the
former, even after he has tendered the pur
chase money, his widow is notdo*ab!e in
the land. Title to realty does not pass by
purchase, without aetual conveyance, so
long as the agreed purchase money is un
paid. Tender is not payment.
Judgment reversed.
Henderson vs. Hill. Motion—from Paul-
ding.
Bleckley, J.
Atter a claimant has litigated through a
claim case and the property has been found
subject, and the judgment affirmed by the
Supreme Court, he is concluded as to the
validity aud binding force of the original
judgment between debtor and creditor, ou
which the levy rested, and will uot be beard
to question the same by motion or other
wise.
Judgment affirmed.
Warner, C. J., did not preside in the fol
lowing case:
Reich vs. the State. Selling liquor to minors.
Jackson, J
1. Any slight mistake In the names of the
grand jurors on the minutes is immaterial
and may be corrected at any time, where
the indictment sets them out with reasona
ble accuracy—leaving no doubt of tbe
identity of person.
2. Immaterial evidence should be
eluded, and objections to material evidence
will uot be considered to operate as error if
in substance it afterward gets before the
jury.
3. The sale of spirituous liquors to s
minor is sufficient to convict, uules3 defend
aut after due inquiry was honestly mistaken
as to minor’s age. The dealer must exercise
special diligence to ascertain the truth, aud
it must be of such persons a9 to satisfy the
jury that the inquiry was honest and not a
mere subterfuge or cover for crime.
4. The jury may give 6uch weight to de
fendant’s statement as in their judgment it
may be entitled to, dependent upon its con
sistency, naturalness and inherent proba
bilities, and a charge to that effect was not
erroneous.
Judgment affirmed.
Melsow vs. Dickson. Trespass — from
Coweta.
Jackson, J.
1. J urors are incompetent when related to
coudscI whose conditional fees entitle them
by contract, to a part of the recovery.
2. A tort may’be set off against a tort
under our Code; therefore to an action of
trespass quare clausum fregit a tort iu the
conversion of personal property may be set
off.
3. Where the plaintiff is insolvent and
unable to respond, and defendant’s claim ex
contractu will otherwise be hazarded, equity
will set it off to au action for a tort.. Such
equity may be asserted in a plea embodying
substantially the allegations necessary in a
bill in equity.
4. If one claiming to be a landlord enter
upon his alleged tenant by valid legal pro
cess, the defendant cannot maintain trespass
quare clausum Jregit, but bis remedy is by an
action on tbe case for suing out the process
maliciously and without probable cause.
Judgment reversed.
S. H. Venable vs. A. R. Everett. Injunc
tion—from Fulton.
Jackson, J.
Equity will not Interfere by injunction
with an exemption of personalty at the In
stance of a judgment creditor having a lien
only on the reversion thereof.
Judgment reversed.
The Atlanta & Charlotte Air Line Company
vs. the S ate. Claim—from Fulton.
Warner, C. J.
This case comes up on the exceptions
taken by defended to the overruling by th
court below of affidavits of illegality to three
tax fi. fas. ia-ued against the Atlanta and
Richmond Air-Line Railroad Company. The
State also excepted because the court re
fused to allow iuterest on the fi. fas.
It appears from the record that in pursu
ance of tbe authority granted by the two
States, tbe Georgia Air-Line aud the
South Carolina Air-Line roads were cons di-
dated Into one by the name of the “Atlanta
and Richmond Air-Line Railway Co.” The
main question presented was whether the
last mentioned company was such a new
one as not to be entitled -to certain exemp
tions from taxation granted to the Georgia
Air-Line Company in tbe act incorporating
Ir. It is difficult to perceive why it was not
a new company after the consolidation was
accomplished; but be that as it may, if it
was not a de jure new railroad under its
new name and organization, it was at least
lejaclo new railroad company operating
and running its road iu this State,
and therefore its property was lia
ble to taxation as tbe property of
other p rsons in the 8tate, as provided by
the act of 1874 The sale of the road under
the decree of the United States Circuit
Court did uot divest the lien of the State for
taxes due, although the tax fi. fas. had uot
been levied. There was no error iu over
ruling defendant’s affidavits of illegality.
This view disposes also of the claim ca6e of
the Atlanta and Charlotte Air Line Railroad
Company. There was no error in the court’®
refusal to pas3 an order for the issuing of
new fi. fas. from the Superior Court, to'em
brace principal and interest for the taxes
claimed by the State, in lieu of those issued
by the Comptroller General.
Judgment affirmed.
A Row on Lover’s Lane—A Negro
Shot.
8ome time on Sunday night a difficulty
occurred near the store of H. Myers, on
Lover’s lane, among some negroes, In
which William Chip was severely wound
ed in the right shoulder. The row,
it appears, was caused by a negro named
Jam**s Black, who had some ill feeling to
wards Chip, and after drawing him into a
quarrel, pulled out a revolver and opened
fire upon him, with the result stated. A
messenger was sent to the city yesterday
morning for Dr. George H. Stone, who
responded and dressed the wound, which,
though painful, is not regarded as 6crious.
So far as ascertained, no attempt has been
made to arrest Black.

A Fractions Horse Causes an Excite
ment.
About quarter to twelve o’clock yesterday
morning a tipple of excitement was caused
on Bull street, near Bryan, by the antics of
a spirited horse belonging to Mr.'-Cbaa.
Seiler. The animal was attached to a wagon,
which was occupied by Mr. Seller and
a colored employe named Jim. The
former was driving and came up Bryan
street, turning into Bull in a
rapid trot, and when Just opposite Gold
ing’s barber saloon, under the Pulaski
House, the animal began to kick, and in a
trice one of his hind legs went over the
6haft, smashing it in twain, and he began
to lunge and kick violently, running great
danger of seriously injuring himself by tbe
broken shaft. Jim sprang from the seat
and grabbing hold of the bridle swung to
tbe animal manfully. The frightened
horse continued to plunge and
ran upon the sidewalk, fairly lift
ing tbe colored man from his feet, but
Jim was too much for him and got him
down on bis knees just as be was about
lunging ipto the topsoriai establishment.
Several parties here raq up to render as
sistance, and the fractious horse was
quickly released. But for the pluck and
energy displayed by Jim tbe animal would
undoubtedly have been seriously injured.
The swingle tree and one sfiaft were com
pletely shivered, but no other damage was
done, Mr. Seiler holding the animal well In
hand aud preventing his running away.

SOMETHING NEW!
Celluloid Eye Glass Frames,
Representing the choicest selected Tortoise
Shell and Amoer.
T HEY are much lighter than any others
Twentv-five pairs of tbe frames weigh
only one ounce. "
They are much stronger and more durable
than any others; they can be dropped without
injury upon the hardest substance. Their
beauty far surpasses the ordinary Tortoise
Shell Frames commonly in use. They are nor
affected by atmospheric changes, being equally
well adapted to either warm or cold 'climate*
The springs are made of a combination of
metals which will neither rust nor be affected
by heat or frost. These frames are set with
line lenses, accurately focused to suit all sights
which, with the many other advantages, make
them very popular.
