Inhumanity to a Dumb Animal.
Yesterday mo ning, about 10 o’clock, a
negro named Morris Burke was arrested near
the Market for driving a poor, miserable-
looking horse, attached to a spring wagoD,
and was carried before Magistrate Russell.
Nearly the entire hoof6 of three feet were
worn away, and the poor beast had to walk
on his ankle bones, evidently suffering in
tensely at every step. The negro lived on
the Ogeechee road about ten miles from the
city, and had driven into town with a
load of two hundred and fifty
pounds of cotton. Burke was required to
give bonds to answer the charge of mis
demeanor. It was proposed to kill the poor
animal, though there hardly 6eemed any
necessity for such a course, as apparently
d'-ath had already laid a claim upon him.
The negro stated the animal had been in
tbfs condition for some 3‘ears past, and he
had been driving him almost constantly.

Savannah Vol. Guards Battalion,
Savannah, Ga., November 12, 1879.
It was thw pleasure of a detachment of
this battalion to participate in the cere
monies iucideut to the unveiling of the Con
federate monument in Macon, Ga., on the
29th of October ultimo, and to be the recip
ients, on that day, of a cordial welcome and
& munificent hospitality from their brother
soldiers, the Macon Volunteers, and tpso to
receive, in addition to’the open-handed en
tertainment of their hosts, mauy courtesies
from members of other military organiza
tions and from citizens, ail of which contrib
uted largely to the pleasure of their visit, aud
for which the members of this ba talion
unite in tendering their most grateful ac
knowledgments.
While we do not desire to be invidious in
our distinctions, yet wj &re constrained to
t-peak in terms of • admiration of the hospi
tality of the Macon Volunteers. Their ban
quet, complete nd superb in all its appoint
ments, was adorned by those cheerful looks
which “crown a welcome” and make
every dish a feasttherefore, be it re-
sc 1 veil—
First That wfi hereby acknowledge with
grateful feelings the very cordial manner
: p which the detachment of this battalion
was received and entertained In Mscon on
the 29th of October, ultimo, and for that
kindliness of treatment we particularly re
turn our most sincere thanks to each officer

ment of this battalion that the day may-
soon come wheu we will be afforded the
)lea-ure and honor of receiving at our own
:V6tive bo«rd the genial aud gallant Volun

And
Third. That it was impossible not to re
cognize in the decoration of the banquet
tables and hall of our hosts, the deft bands
aud exquisite taste of woman, whose match
less virtues, were it in our power, we would
grave in paper” more “lasting than

there was a gathering of those concerned
at the Metropolitan Hall yesterday morning

Haywood, President of the company, called
the meeting to order, and nominated Mr. J.
J. Dale for Chairman,who was unanimously
elected, and Mr. L. E. Byck was requested
to act as Secretary.
After the object of the meeting had been
stated, considerable discussion ensued in
regard to the legality of any proceedings,
there not being a majority of the stockhold
ers represented, which was participated in
by Mr. John Nicoleon, Mr. T. H. Harden and
Mr. M. J. Desvergere, and which was finally
settled by a motion of the latter, that tbe
meeting organize informally and simply take
advisory action, without attempting to bind
the stockholders to any course^lhey might
adopt.
This agreement being arrived at, the re
port of the President setting forth the con
dition of the road, its present embarrass
ments, and the possibilities of future relief,
was called for, and was read bv the Secre
tary, as follows:
Savannah, November 25,1879.
7b the Stockholders of the Coast Line Jiailroad
Company:
The Board of Directors, in view of im
portant matters connected with the Interest
of the company, have deemed It necessary
to call this meeting of stockholders to sub
mit for consideration the affairs of the com
pany, with the hopes that consultation will
result in devising means that will relieve the
company of its floating debt, which, with
the heavy interest we have been obliged to
pay, has proven an incubus that the receipts
of the company, coupled with all economy
possible in the management of its affairs, is
not able to withstand.
The statement, or rather proof sheet of
the company’s ledger, herewith submitted,
will show the floating debt to be $12,000,
bearing, until within the past few months,
a rate of interest of from 10 to 14 per cent.,
(the present rate Is 8 to 10 per cent.) This,
as before said, the company is not able to
stand under, and, as a consequent, de
faulted in payment oV second mortgage
November coupons.
This failure necessitated the calling togeth
er the holders of the second mortgage bonds
to submit the inability of the company to
meet the November interest, and to ask
from them a suspension of collection of
coupons for two and a half or three years.
With this concession on tbe part of the
owners of the second mortgage bonds, your
Board of Dlrcciors feel confident that tbe
entire floating debt can be paid. Should
the bondholders refuse or decline to grant
this concession our only hope to be able to
save the company from the mortification of
foreclosure is to appeal to you as stock
holders to relieve the company in any way
that in consultation may be deemed best.
A committee of bondholders is expected
to be present at this meeting, who will state
their views and doubtless make known their
conclusions in the premises. Respectfully
submitted, Alfred Haywood,
President.
Mr. Nicolson moved that the statement
be received for information, and the motion
was adopted.
Mr. Nicolson here inquired if the stock
holders assumed this floating Indebtedness
of $12,000, what guarantee could they re
ceive that they would ever be Indemnified.
The first mortgage bonds, amounting to
$25,000, had fifteen years more to run.
Tbe second mortgage bonds, amounting
to $31,000, would mature iu se^en years,
and tbe interest on these bonds, with
thp rate piid on the floating debt, would
amount to over $3,000. The entire amount
of stock subscribed and paid iu was
$28,000, aud the amount of bonds issued
was exactly double that sum, and the stock
holders were now requested to come forward
and assume the floating debt. Under all
circumstances, however, he favored tbe
complete protection of individual endorsers
for tne company, and such claims should be
looked after.
Mr. Haywood stated that he had labored
arduously in the interest of the road for the
past six years, without fee or reward, and
had endeavored to do all that was possible
for its advancement, to the best of
his ability. He understood, however,
there were some stockholders who
were not satisfied with the management,
and who imagine something was concealed
from them—something that the directors
did not wish to be known. Such was not
the case. There was nothing to hide. It
was true that there were three defaulters to
the road, persons who were known, he pre
sumed, to all present,whose total defalcation
exceeded the amount of the floating debt.
To those heavy defalcations could be at
tributed all the troubles aud embarrass
ments of the road. He did not consider it
necessary to mention any names, in conse
quence of the litigation that had been com
menced, but the loss by defalcation was a
fact known to all. In view of the seeming dis
trust among a portion of the stockholders
concerning the management of the road he
would suggest that a motion be made look
ing to tbe appointment of a committee of
the stockholders with authority to select an
expert to examine thoroughly the books of
the companv and report to a subsequent
meeting. lie suggested this in justice to
the officers, as he had heard cuough of
these insinuations.
Mr. Nicolson was glad that this lnvestiga
tiou had been invited. He was personally
convinced that the President had done his
duty thoroughly, but for the satisfaction of
tbe stockholders It would be well to act
upon the suggestion. He would therefore
move that a committee of three or five, of
which the Chairman of this meeting should
be Chairman, be appointed to exaqainp the
books Of this cumpauy from the inception
of the enterprise to date, and to report the
result to a future meeting of the stock
holders.
Mr. Dale, the Chairman, emphatically
remarked that so far as the stock of the
companv was concerned, the stockholders
might as well realize at once that it wfts
worthless. He sa\v nothing whatever to be
gained by the investigation proposed. He
thought the object of this meeting was to
contider whether the floating debt
should be wiped out, or the
road allowed to be sold. 'Hie examina
tion would result iu nothing; the stock was
dead, and there wasnouse talking about that.
The mover was kind to name him as Chair
man of the committee, but believing that
the examination would only occasion <
waste of time and labor, and noth
lng would be gained, he most respectfully
declined to serve. He was perfectly willing
to do all in his power to benefit the road,
himself, or the stockholders, but he was not
willing to devote time to 6uch unprofitable
labqr go fftr as the management of the rpad
was concerned be was assured do one thought
tbe directors had misappropriated the
funds, and there was nothing to be discov
ered against them. They may possibly have
made errors, but “it is human to err.” and
po man is ipfallihlo.
Mr. Nicolson thought his motion was mis
understood ; the object of the committee
would be to discover what the errors, if any,
of mismanagement there might be so that
they could be avoided in the future. He
considered the investigation would be satis
factory to the stockholders in general.
Mr. Harden said there were three parties
at interest in this matter : first, the stock
holders ; second, the first mortgage bond
holders, and third, the second mortgage
bondholders. He favored the suggested In
vestigation, in of Jer J.hdt thp directors might
be fully exonerated, to the entire satisfaction
of the stockholders, of any blame in the
conduct of affairs. It was acknowledged
that the stock was worthless, but this was
no fault pf thp management, aud it was
proper that the Investigation should pro
ceed. Let the committee go through the
hooka, anfl show by tflpir rppor$ tQ the stock
holders that the directors nave done theii
duty.
Air. Dale (quizzically)—Wouldn’t a cer
tificate of good character do aa well ? I
would certainly sign it.
Air. Harden, laughing, replied that he
still favored the proposed committee.
Mr. S. F. Byck did not perceive what could
possibly be gained by this Investigation.
There was no charge of willful mismanage
ment on the part or the directors; they had
done their duty to the best of their ability.
The only trouble was that they had placed
in position men whom they deemed honest,
but who unfortunately proved the contrary.
Air. Haywood here interrupted that the
heaviest defaulter of the company was not
ipointed or elected by the present Board
Directors, but by « previous one.
Mr. Byck, resuming, said it was so much
the worse. It was greatly to be deplored
that at the very inception of this enterprise
the funds of the company were embezzled.
This was why tbe Mock was worthless:
The directors bad not stolen anything, bnt
it was certain that somebody had, and
hence their embarrassments.
Captain AL J. Doyle had listened with a
great deal of interest to this discussion, and
he had generally agreed with the worthy
President, but in thi* instance be must dif
fer with him. He was not favorable to thla
proposed examination of the books, as
there was nothing to be learned by
farther investigation. Neither the Presi
dent or directors could be clfarged with
anything t)eyond perhaps a little too much
leniency in allowing some of the officers
be too free of restrictions. The discus
sion was irrelevant. The obje :fc of this
meeting was to ascertain what measures
were necessary to save the Stockholders and
secure the bondholders their rights, and
how the floating debt could be removed.
He would suggest therefore that the report
of the committee of the second mortgage
bondholders, making a proposition to the
stockholders, be read.
Mr. Nicolson, by request, temporarily
withdrew his motion for the appointment
of a committee. ,
: The report'of the bondholders’ committee
was then called for and-Mr. B. B. Reppard,
Chairman of the committee, submitted the
same, prefacing it with explanatory re
marks in reference to the creation
of the committee, stating parenthetically
that the bondholders were perfectly willing
to wait, provided the stockholders would
give them any guarantee that they would
be secure in all their rights. He understood
if the bondholders failed to proceed that
outside creditors would take action which
would jeopard their rights. Mr. Reppard
thereupon read the following report:
Savannah. Ga., November 12,1879.
7b the Second Mortgage Bondholders Coast
Line Railroad: »
Gentlemen—Your committee, appointed
for the purpose of looking into and report
ing upon the prospects of said company,
and making recommendations as to the best
action to be taken by your body, beg leave
to report as follows:
After carefully examining in detail the
receipts and disbursements of the road from
November 1, 1878, to October 31,1879, one
year, we find—
Receipts $19,131 09
” 15,513 83
Less interest on First Mortg’e Bonds. 5 LTSO 00
Net receipts to pay floating debt and
interest on Second Mortg e Bonds. .$ 2,137 96
Floating debt estimated at about $12,000,
and calculating expenses to be reduced iu
next twelve months (as the President thinks
can be done, and your committee after care
ful investigation agree with him) to $14,600,
aud estimating receipts for next twelve
months at eame figure as past twelve
months, would leave, at a fair estimate, af
ter deducting $1,750 for interest on first
mortgage bonds, $3,081 09 to apply to the
extinguishment of floating debt, which
would take at this rate per annum at least
four to five years to pay it off, saying nothin);
of the accumulation of interest on second
mortgage bonds for the whole time.
Under these circumstances, your commit
tee would suggest the sale of the road at the
earliest possible date and at the least possi
ble expense, unless the stockholders would
submit to an assessment and pay up the
floating debt at once. We wduld also sug
gest the amalgamation of the second mort
gage bondholders and creditors for the pur
pose of buying in said road, second mort
gage bondholders and creditors taking stock
to the extent of their claims. The above only
in view of the fact that the creditors are
mostly directors in said road and personal
endorsers of their liabilities.
If the road is bought in as above, we be
lieve it could, by careful and prudent man
agement, be made to pay fair dividends ou
the stock after paying the Interest on its first
mortgage indebtedness.
Respectfully submitted,
R. B. Reppard, Chairman.
LbvtE Btck.
D. C. Bacon.
AIaximb J. Dbsvergers.
M. J. Dotle.
John Nicolson.
Capt. Doyle stated that if, in connection
with this report, the President would read
the 6tatemeut of the operations of the past
three months, it would give a clearer under
standing of the condition and prospects of
the company, and enable the stockholders
to proceed more advisedly.
Mr. Haywood, in response, stated that at
the request of the directors he had assumed
the position of Treasurer of the compa
ny on the 23d of August last, and for
the three mouths the receipts had met
the current expenses, paid off a number of
small claims, that $2,329 80 had been ex
pended for materia], etc., absolutely neces
sary, that everything had been bought for
cash, and that during this period not a dol
lar of extra indebtedness had been Incurred,
and there was a surplus.
Capt. Doyle stated that it could be seen
from this that the company had mad*
money, and could make money, If the stock
holders would come forward and assume
tbe floating debt, and place the company on
a firm basis. An assessment of fifty per
cent, on the stockholders would do this.
Mr Dale remarked that the horse was in
the ditch, and there was no use wasting
time in discussing how he got there. The
thing to do was to get him out.
Air. Desvergers stated that although he
was on the committee aud had signed the
report read by Mr. Reppard, yet, since then,
he bad conceived another view of the mat
ter. He would suggest a plan wherebv the
stock might be saved and the bondholders
protected. It was that the second mortgage
bondholders agree to hold over their cou
pons for three years, and allow the interest
ou the same to go to the extinguishment of
the floating debt, and from the exhibit made
he had not the slightest doubt the indebted
ness could be entirely wiped out in the
time mentioned and the payment of interest
could be renewed.
Air. Dale—A rather novel proceeding,
don’t you think ?
Mr. Desvergers, resuming, said It would
be equitable aud just, and he believed the
bondholders would cheerfully agree to It.
Some discussion ensued on this point, in
which Mr. Nicolson took part, and con-,
tended that the suggestion* was imprac
ticable and the proposition would got be
accepted.
He then renewed his motion that a com
mittee of live be appointed to examine
into the affairs of the company, etc., which
motion prevailed.
Capt. Doyle offered a resolution that the
stockholders be assessed 40 per yegt. on their
present stock, and notified what would be
the result if tbe assessment was not paid.
The motion, after brief desultory discussion,
was carried. ....
Air. Reppard, for the bondholders, re
quested that the Secretaiy be instructed to
see each stockholder personally and ascer
tain from him if he is willing to pay the
assessment of forty per cent., and report
the resnlt to the bondholders, as it was
necessary they should know $t ns early a date
as possible.
After a colloquial dlscussion-ln regard to
the outside Indebtedness of the company,
Mr. Desvergers, with the assertion that
three of the largest bondholders would
agree to the suggestion made In his n rGvious
remarks, submitted the fGiiowing^ resolu
tion, which Was finally adopted uoani
mouslj:
Resohed. That a committee or five be ap
pointed oy the Chair to wait upon the
second mortgage bondholders of the Coast
Line Railroad, and propose that they hold
over the coupons on their bonds, in order
that the interest of 6aid bonds may t^e ap
plied to a sinking of the flqating debt of
the company, the present business of the
road being sqch gs to warrant the belief
that the entire floating debt can be absorbed
within three years by the arrangement.
The Chair appointed as the committee to
examine into the affairs of the company, in
accordance with the resolution of Mr.
Nicolson, the following gentlemen.
Messrs. John Nicolson, J. J. McGowan,
Charles Gassman, Simon Gazan and Simon
F. Byck.
As the committee toeonferwlth the bond
holders under Mr. Desvergers* resolution
the following gentlemens '
Messrs. M. J. Desvergers, F. J. Ruckert,
D. C. Bacon, AL J. Doyle and E. J. Ken
nedy.
A motion to adjourn was here made and
carried.

401,224 bales; difference 60,987 bales.
The Chronicle's interior port table for the
week shows 135,110 balee receipts, against
86,003 last year. 103,238 shipments against
63,964 last year. 218,988 in stock, against

cotton in sight, against 1,766 068 at same
date last year—1,783.444 the year before at

The Chronicle’s weather telegrams of Fri
day no e light rains in Texas daring the
week— beneficial, b >t insufficient to relieve
the situation. There were heavier rains
from the Mississippi eastward, and snow
about Augusta to tne depth of three inches.
Augusta reports a good top crop matured
id secure, and says planters we holding on
tp their cotton.
The Chttmids criticises the report of the
Washington Agricultural Department, and,
like Tllden, wants a bill of particulars. The
290,000 bales deficit from last crop does not
folio# the facts stated.
8top spending so much money on fine
clothes, rich food and style. Boy good,
healthy food, cheaper and better clothing;
get more real and substantial things of life
every way, and especially stop the foolish
habit of running softer expensive and quack
doctors, or using so much of the vile hum
bug medicine that does you only harm, and
lakes the proprietors rich, and pat your
trust in the greatest of all simple, pure
remedies, Hop Bitten, that cures always at
a trifling cost, and you will see better times
