I mere**lug to Housekeeper*.
To those of our readers who are contem
plating making any additions to their house
hold we would suggest a visit to the ele
gant and extensive establishment uL Messrs.
Allen <fc Lindsay, on Broughton street. This
firm, noted for their enterprise and energy,
have stocked their extensive warerooms
with a magnificent lot of furniture
of every description, and are en
abled through the facilities they
possess to oiler the very lowest prices to
ihe public. Among their recent receipts
are fifty refrigerators of the latest patents
in walnut and ash. with water cooler com
bined. These refrigerators are of a style
that will add to the appearance of a dining
room and they possess the merit of saving
the consumption of ice. No family should
be without one.
They are also in receipt of 250 roll6 of the
most handsome patterns of matting, select
ed with special care, and also a large assort
ment of the latest styles of window shades,
lace curtains, and an extensive stock of up
holstery goods generally. Au inspection of
their extensive warerooms, 169 and 171
Broughton street, would certainly well repay
those who are in need of auytblne to be
fouud iu a large and first class furniture and
carpet emporium. ®h27-tf
Caution.
In this unsettled 6tate of the market the
public should be more cautious than ever
from whom they buy. Unscrupulous
dealers at-k ali kinds of fabulous and
fancy prices, at the same time pretending
not to ask any advance, presuming on the
ignorance of the masses of the true 6tatc of
the market. The famous New York Cloth
ing House is conducted on the true princi
ple of honesty. To deal fairly and to give
everybody as much «6 possible for their
money is our aim. Besides possessing such
superior facilities, it is impossible for any
house to compete with us. All we a6k is,
to look at our clothing before purchasing
elsewhere. 140 Congress street.

Manager Ford’s Star Combination.
Our advertising columns show that Mana
ger John T. Ford’s Star Combination will
commence a brief engagement at the Thea
tre to-morrow evening, opening in the beau
tiful play of the “Two Orphans.” The play
has been produced in Savannah by several
companies, but It is a play that does Dot tire
by repetition, especially when given by first-
class arti-ts. Concerning the cast of Mana
ger Ford’s Company, the Richmond Dispatch
says:
“‘The Two Orphans.’ It teaches a great
lesson. Its pathos and purity characterized
it as a great play, and, as acted by Manager
Ford’s company, will reach the highest
standard. Miss Marie Bockel as the suffer
ing Louise aud Miss Belle Mackenzie as the
devoted Henriette will be a pair of lovely
orphans, who cannot fail to win admiration
and sympathy. Mrs. Jane Germon as the
tender Countess will prove most worthy the
sacrifice of her nephew’s daring appeal to
her husband’s honor. Mr. Downing Is the
heartless Jacques to the perfection of art,
and Mr. George Denham iu the dual charac
ter of Pierre and Picard will alternate
pathos and comedy. Marianne, as por
trayed by Miss ftlanphe Thompson, wins ap
plause for her courage apd self-sacrifice to
save the two orphans, whose purity had
touched her almoet hardened heart and
made her a good woman.”
With this greaft play and such a cast, new
scenery and handsome dresses, Manager
Ford’s company will no doubt receive a
hearty Easfer greeting Friday evening.

We learn tb&t lion. Washington Booth, a
prominent and distinguished cltiien of Bal
timore, who has been sojourning in Savan
nah for the past several weeks, leaves this
afternoon by the steamship Saragossa. Mr.
Booth was the President of the old Balti
more and Savannah Steamship Company,
and has been largely interested hi various
enterprieesof State and national importance.
Although he has retired from active life,
and is in the enjoyment of an ample com
petency, he manifests a lively interest in
political and commercial affairs. We are
pleased to learn that he has enjoyed his pro
longed stay here, and that he contemplates
returning early next fall and spending the
winter. Mr. Booth Is well known in Savan
nah, and his many friends will regret that
his visit esunot be prolonged.
The Enlerulnmem To.Bflcbf.
Miss Louise Clarke, the talented elocu
tionist, has kindly consented to appear be
fore the Youth’s Historical Society, and
favor them with several of her powerful
renditions. The entertainment will be given
in their hall, in Masonic Temple, this
(Thursday) evening, commencing at 8:30
o’clock, to which the members aDd their
friends are cordially Invited to attend.
The programme which has been selected
for the occasion is varied and attractive.
The best talent of the society will partlci-
P wi would advise all who have the oppor
tunity to attend, for, judging from the past
entertainments given, we predict a rare
treat and grand success.
Important to Onr ITfercbaut Tailors.
We direct the particular attention of our
merchant tailors and clothing houses to the
advertisement elsewhere for proposals for
furnishine summer uniforms for the police
force. This work should be kept here, and
we are sure can be done as well and as
cheaply as by Northern houses. The ad
vertisement is signed by Alderman Schwarz,
Chairman of the Police Committee.
Circular No. 3.
We direct attention of those concerned to
the announcement elsewhere from the Rail
road Commission of Georgia, in reference to
changes made in the standard schedule of
maximum rates.
The Stock Market.
There was nothing doing in Central Rail
road stock yesterday, the market being en
tirely nominal at 97 bid, 9S asked, with no
sales. Other securities are very quiet and
unchanged.
He Is a fool. We mean the man who lets

St. Patrick’. Pair.
The enthusiasm that marked the opening
of the grand fair, and increased its at
tendance the second night, is yet on the
boom, as was discovered in the dense throng
of humanity that filled the hall last evening.
Again the Mechanics Brass Band, which
has discoursed music each evening, was on
band, and added inspiration to the good
cause, whoee supporters were reaping for it
such a magnificent harvest.
At the star table, No. 1, the ladies were
particularly active and cheerful, aDd their
books recorded the names of many patrons.
The elegant silver tilting pitcher with gob
lets and bowl was much admired, while the
sideboard that stands prominently in the
centre of a table of rare beauty "and ele
gance was the coveted of many matrons,
who noted Its excellence. The table is very
handsomely and elaborately decorated, and
was supplied with a variety of elegant ar
ticles.
At the Sodality table, No. 2, the handsome
silver lamp to be voted to the most popular
railroad conductor, was receiving votes, and
this scheme, it is confidently thought, will
provoke a most interesting contest.
Father O’Hara’s table, No. 3, acknowl
edges with thanks the munificent gift of a
Wheeler dc W’llson sewiag machine, No. 8,
by the popular agent, Mr. James Catlin.
The bedstead at this table is a most elegant
piece of furniture,and it6 book should readily
command chances.
Table No. 4, Mrs. James O’Byrne, across
the ball, was the objective point of many
visitors, attracted by its beauty and lavish
display. The cross and chain to be voted
the most popular lady will give the married
men an opportunity to oppose their zeal in
favor of some matron against the non-
benedlcts supporting a ysung lady. The
elegant doll maid of Erin, arrayed in green
6atin with illusion puffing, is universally
admired. The fine carpet of this table is
one of the most conspicuous articles in the
hall.
At table No. 5 we find the cylinder secre
tary, with bookcase combined; a table
cover of Kensington embroidery, made by
two elderly ladies, and the silver frosted
ice pitcher and goblets, all very elegant and
valuable articles. The young'ladies at this
table form a bevy of beauties, and their zeal
in the good cause makes each evening’s re
ceipts quite formidable.
At table No. 6—Mrs. M. J. Reilly and Mrs.
J. M. B. Lovell—we find the pilot flags, to
be voted for the most popular pilot boat, are
exciting very general interest. The chance
books for the handsome epergne, silver
pitcher, aud splendid mirror and numerous
oth^r elegant articles, are rapidly filling up.
The candy booth In connection with this
table, and under the immediate management
of Mr. John B. Fernandez, drives a lively
business, and is excellently managed.
Miss Ellen Rankin’s booth is one of the
most attractive in the hall, and among the
prominent articles are handsome pictures
of ex-President Jefferson Davis and Hon.
A. H. Stephens, with autographic letters of
those distinguished gentlemen. There is
also a magnificent family Bible, and several
other articles of rare value, displayed^ this
table.
Mr. Chris. Rankin ba6 introduced in the
northeast corner of the hall archery prac
tice, which is liberally patronized by the
fair archers and their escorts.
At table No. 6, among the many elegant
article-, is a beautiful white 6atln pincush
ion, on which is painted a beautiful rose.
This is the work of little Bessie Rice, and Is
a marvel of skill and taste.
The wheel of fortune, at the star table,
and on your left immediately on entering
the door, Is kept constantly distributing Its
prizes to customers.
The supper table, with its fine array, had,
as usual, its 6teady and crowded custom,
and is now very efficiently conducted by
Mrs. Lee and Miss Maggie Rankin.

A Fatal Stumble—A Colored Man Ac
cidentally Drowned.
Alfred Gould, colored, was accidentally
drowned yesterday morning about seven
o’clock, from the wharf of the
Philadelphia steamships, under the
following circumstances: Tbe Juniata
had just arrived from Philadelphia,
and was decking. A line was thrown from
the 6hip to the wharf, and the gang of ne
groes with which Gould was workiDg caught
hold of it, Gould being nearest to the river.
Tbe line was suddenly pulled taut, when
the negroes at the end either let go
or the line was jerked from them,
necessarily upsetting Gould’s equilibrium,
and causing him to stumble. He was ou
the edge of the wharf, and before he could
recover himself, tumbled off and sank
below the surface of the water. A
small portion of one of his hands
was seen above the water for a
moment or so and a rope was thrown him,
but he never appeared, and despite the
strenuous efforts of those on the wharf, was
drowned. Strange to say, notone of the
negroes could swim, and hence none
ventured In the water, although they strove
in other ways to 6ave the man. Gould had
been in the employ of Messrs, fl. J. Dicker-
son & Co. for a long time and was regarded
as one of their best hands. Up to dark his
body had not been recovered.

Supreme Court Decision.
As the following decision of the United
States Supreme Court involves principles
of law and equity of interest not only to
the legal profcscion but to the public at
large, we give below a carefully prepared
abstract of the opinion of the court, as de
livered by Justice Clifford:
Supreme Court of the Cnited States. No.
176. October Term, 1879.
Sarah S. Walden, appellant, vs. Darius S.
Skinner and Charles S. Hardee aud John
N. Lewis, executors of Charles S. Henry,
deceased. Appeal from the Circuit Court
of the United States for the Southern Dis
trict of Georgia.
1. Trusts are either express or implied,
the former being such as are raised or crea
ted by the act of the parties, and the latter
oeing 6uch as are raised or created by pre
sumption or construction of law (Cook vs.
Fountain, 3 Swanst, 535, 592).
2. Implied trusts may also be divided into
two general classes: First, those that rest
upon the presumed intention of the parties.
Secondly, those which are Independent of
any such express intention, and are forced
upon the conscience of the party by opera
tion of law. (2 Story’s Equity, 9th ed.,
1195.)
3. Sufficient appears to show that Sarah
3. Walden, as the heir at-law of her first
husband, William P. B. Teft, is entitled to
the relief claimed in her bill of complaint,
which is that Charles S. Hardee and John N.
Lewis, as executors of Charles S. Henry,
trustee (deceased), of lot number five
Monterey ward, Savannah, Georgia, and
improvements on said lot, shall convey to
her such interest and title in said property
as her deceased husband bad, under the
terms of a tru«t deed executed by Elias
Fort on June 28, 1831, to Charles S. Henry
and Stephen C. Green, for the use and bene
fit of Mrs. P. W. Teft, wife of Israel K.
Teft, and her three sons, William, Henry
and Charles Teft, during the lifetime of
Mrs. Teft, and after her death to the three
sons alone, as tenants in common. In
equal part*. Henry Teft died, and his two
brothers, William and Charles, not only in
herited their deceased brother’s Interest in
the property, but received and put into the
improvements upon the lot the proceeds of
a poliev of life insurance on the life of
Henry Te t, paid t3 them, for $5,000. Com
petent proofs of a convincing character are
alfo exhibited in the transcript, that
William P. B Teft (appellant’s
first husband) contributed other sums
towards completing the buildings,
leaving no doubt .that he paid his full pro
portion for the improvements, as well as for
the lot purchased of the city authorities.
Tbe proofs show that the complainant gen
erally resided upon the premises, and that
her rights as heir-at law of her deceased
husband were uniformly recognized by tbe
family, and that after the death of Mr. Israel
K. Teft,husband of complainant’s mother-in-
law, complainant, until the death of her
mother-iu law, a period of eleven years,
paid one-half of all repairs, taxes, insurance
and other expenses of the property, as If
6he was equally interested in the same with
her mother-in law, and was liable to bear an
equal proportion of all such expenses.
4. ^>urts of equity afford relief in case of
mistake of facts, and allow parol evidence
to vary, and reform written contracts, and
instruments, when tbe defect or error arises
from accident or misconception, as properly
forming an exception to the rule
which excludes parol testimony offered to
vary or contradict written instruments.
Where the mistake Is admitted by the other
party, relief, as all agree, will be granted,
and if It be fully proved by other evidence,
Judge Story says, the reasqns for granting
relief seem to be equally satisfactory. (1
gtorvs Equity, 9th ed., sec. 156 )
5. in this case, by accident or mistake,
the deed to the lot five and improvements,
Monterey ward, does not express, which it
was intended to do, the trutts contained in
the Elias Fort deed of 1831. Taken as a
whole the proofs show, to the entire satis
faction of tbe court, that the lot in question
was purchased and conveyed to the surviv
ing trustee upon the same trusts as those
raised and created in the first (Elias Fort
deed of 1831) deed, aud that the trustee,
through mistake, failed to have those trusts
properly declared in the deed of trust to
him, as he should have done, and that the
prayer of the bill of complainant, that the
deed of the lot and improvements in ques
&op pught to be reformed, and the rights of
the oompi^iuaut ascertained and ad
judged, as if the deed iu question contained
the same trusts as those raised and created
in the original trust deed, is reasonable and
proper, and should be granted.
{}. The third trust in the old Elias Fort
de'bd became extinct by the sale, for rein
vestment during the lifetime of Mrs. R. W.
Teft, according to the provisions of that
deed.
7. As to the defense that the p!a{m of
Sarah S. Walden is barred, the uuurt, in
view of the circumstances, holds that noth
ing of consequence had occurred to call her
just rights iu question.
The Revival Work.
The firm hold which the religious feeling
has taken in tne city of ba^annau U still
evidenced by the large congregations tba f ,
laying aside business cares, assemble at the
stated hours for worship at Trinity Church.
That the impressions induced are deep, is
manifested fcy the numbers wbp daily sepk
the aitar for prayer, by the tide of soi.|j
which swells up in a volume of mploly at
the song service before the regular worship
and the interest shown by al
classes upon religious subject*.
Tbe morning prayer meeting yesterday
was largely attended and the services pe
culiarly impressive. Rev. Dr. Mann con
ducted the exercises, and in an earnest aDd
effective exhortation, based upon tbe par
able of tbe unjust judge, urged the im
portance of importuning prayer upon the
part of God’s people as the effective means
of qringing yet larger measures of blessings
upou ihe church and people in »,he salva
tion of souls and the extension of the
borders of Ziou.
At the conclusion of bis discourse, a Dum
ber of the brethren expressed themselves
in full sympathy and earnest co-oper&tion
in the present revival work, and the deter
mination to continue to go forth, weeping,
bearing precious seed, in the confident hope
that they will cotue again wLh rejoicing,
bringing their sheaves with them.
The Dight service attracted the usual large
congregation, who all engaged with spirit
in tne ae/otiona of the hour. The singing
was grand and impbe6?lve—fuil of melody
aud softening influences. Dr. Mann preach
ed from the text; “We know that the law
19 good, etc.,” considering the two proposi
tions, the proper use of tbe law, and its un
lawful or improper use, in connection with
tbe justification of 6inners before God.
It was a powerful and suggestive dis
course. He showed that while the Law of
God, as revea’ed from Mount Sinai, was a
perfect law, the trauscript of the Divine
mind and character and the means through
which n as revealed tne exceeding sinfumd»s
of 61d; that while it demanded a perfect
obedience and dealt the thunders of Its
wrath against its slightest violation, it could
not justify man before God nor secure sal
vation. Its language was strict obedience,
no*, mercy, it conM strike down but could
not lift up-, it could kin but could not laake
alive.
He showed that it was our school matter
to bring us to Christ; it showed the exceed
ing sinfulness of sin and pointed to the
blood of Jesus, without which ti;ere was no
remission of sin.
At the conclusion of the sermon a number
of penitents approached the altar on invita
tion, seeking the pardon of sin, and one
united ht.self with the church,
The pastor read a letter from Capt. Gray,
of the ship Alfred, who sailed yesterday for
Liverpool, full of words of joyful gratu-
lations for the happy feelings which he and
some of his crew had experienced during
the meetings.
Services will be held to-day at 9:30 a. m.
and 7:30 p. m.,and at 4 o’clock the quarterly
conference of the several Methodist church
es in Savannah will be convened at the lec
ture room of Trinity Church.

Yesterday morning His Honor Mayor
Wheaton received a letter from Joseph A,
Scarlett,Esq.,Chairman of a committee of the
Board of Trade in Cincinnati, notifying him
that a large excursion party would leave
Cincinnati about the 13th and would be in
Savannah about the 20th, and requested
him to see what arrangements could be
made with the hotels, In order to
avoid confusion incident to the un
expected arrival of a large crowd
of people. The party, Mr. Scarlett stated,
would number over 140. Mayor Wheaton
saw the proprietors of the several hotels l
and notified them of the expected excur
sion, and arrangements will be made for
their accommodation.
The excursion indicates the anxiety of
the citizens of Cincinnati to cultivate more
intimate relations with their now near
neighbors of the South. The plan includes
an excursion to Chattanooga for about three
hundred, complete in itself, and an exten
sion of the trip, for a smaller number, to
Atlanta, Augusta, Charleston and Savan
nah, returning thence by way of Macon and
Atlanta.
Mayor Wheaton will call a meeting of
the Savannah Cotton Exchange to-day,
with a view of having a committee
appointed, representing the various
branches of business, to meet the
excursion party between this city and
Charleston, extend them a welcome to Sa
vannah, and escort them here. This is emi
nently proper, and arrangements should be
made in 6ome way befitting the proverbial
hospitality of Savannah, and that will im
press our visitors with the importance of our
port.
As of interest to our business men, who
will naturally desire to know who are com
ing, we publish herewith the list of those
who have already subscribed their names at
tbe headquarters in Cincinnati for the
through trip to 8avannah. The names are

IMPORTANT CONVENTION.
Representatives of Sanitary Inter
ests of Atlantic and Gnlf States.
The meeting of the Georgia Medical Asso
ciation, to assemble in Augusta on the 21st
of April, may be accompanied by another
important session in this city. A letter was
received yesterday from Dr. J. C. LeHardy,
of Savannah, stating that the convention to
take Into consideration the commercial and
sanitary interests of the Atlantic and Gulf
States would 60oc be called. It has been
suggested that Augusta would be a capital
place for the meeting of this coflvention,
and the fact that the Medical Convention
also meets here leads to the probability of
holding both sessions at the same time In
this city. The Sanitary Convention will
discuss the recent extraordinary action of
the National Board of Health, and protest
against their usurpation of State and local
authorities. The subject is a most impor
tant one, and the action recently taken by
tbe Savaunah health authorities is followed
up thi6 morning In a petition from the Au
gusta Board.—Chronicle and Constitutionalist,
