Captain John PerRIu* at
Quarantine.
Information was received in the city early
yesterday morning of the death at quaran
tine station of Captain John Pe.rklns, com
mander of the schooner Mary J., which
arrived here on Monday from Turtle river.
Captain Perkins was very ill at the time,and
his recovery was then considered hopeless.
The particulars of the arrival of this
schooner and the death of the mate,Captain
John S. Petersen, was given in the Mous
ing News of Tuesday, aud the official state
ment of the post mortem examination by
the Health Officer on his body appeared in
yesterday’s issue.
As soon as notified the Health Officer, Dr.
J. T. McFarland, called upon Acting Mayor
Willlnk, and arrangements were made for
an official visit to the quarantine station.
About two o’clock the Mayor pro tem.,
Health Officer and members of the Sanitary
Commission and Council left the city in the
tug Commodore Foote and proceeded direct
to the station.
On arrival the party were informed that
Capt. Perkins had died about nine o’clock
on Tuesday night. It was decided to hold
a post mortem examination, Dr. McFar
land being assisted by Dr. R. Stewart San
ders, and the following is the official report
of the Health Officer on the subject:
Office Healtu Officer, |
Savannah, August 25, 1880. |
Editor Morning Newe: I visited quaran
tine station to-day in discharge of my
official duty, and I am instructed to place
before the public the result of the same,
which is as followc: I found Capt. Perkins,
of the schooner Mary J., dead, death
having ensued last night, aud, in company
with Dr. R. S. Sanders, held a post mortem
examination on the body. The result of
this examination wa9 conclusive and cor
roborative of the examination of the body
of Mr. Petersen, of same schooner, viz :
death was caused by malarial fever. The
body was Interred at quarantine station.
Yours, etc.,
J. T. McFarland, M. D ,
Health Officer.
Capt. Perkins was from Boston, but had
lived in Savaunah the past twelve or fifteen
years, and was for a longtime employed as a
watchman at the Central Railroad wharves.
Some months since he bought, in connec
tion with Mr. John Kelly, the schooner
Mary J., and engaged in the coasting trade.
On her last trip from Turtle river he was
prostrated by swamp fever, which, as stated,
resulted in his death. He was about sixty
years of age, and leaves a wife and children.
Sudiieu Death.
Yesterday morning, about nine o’clock, a
colored woman named Agnes Fleming,
living at No. 10 St. Gaul street, died very
suddenly while sitting on the back porch
of her house. It appears that about half-
past eight o’clock she ate for her breakfast a
piece of bread and drank a cup of coffee, and
shortly afterwards proceeded to the back
porch, where she sat down, when she was
suddenly slezed with a severe fit of cough
ing, accompanied bv hemorrhage, and in five
minutes was a corpse. Coroner Sheftall
held an inquest, when the jury, after con
sidering the above stated facts, rendered a
verdict of death from hemorrhage.
Rev. S. Laudrum, D. D.
Rev. 8, Landrum, D. D., of Savannah
passed through here yesterday en route to
Gainesville. He has beau iu North Georgia
for several weeks preaching very effectively.
He informed us yesterday that a new Bap
tist Church had been constituted in Cobb
county, two mile6 this side of Marietta; one
end of an old shanty was torn out and a
brush arbor erected. Now where three
weeks ago there was no church organization
there is a church with forty-six members.—-
Atlanta Constitution.
A Genuine Zulu.
On board the Portuguese brig Luzia, now
lying at quarantine, is a young boy, about
ten years of age, who was brought from the
coast of Guinea some four mouths since.
The vessel i* manned by Portuguese sea
men, who make quite a pot of the little fel
low, whose skin almost outrivals efcon^ in
blackness, and who is remarkably bright
p.nd intelligent. He speaks Creole Portu
guese, the language of the people of that
country. lie is pronounced a regular Zulu,
and is certainly a comical looking little fel
low, his only costume being a cotton sack,
low neck, short sleeves, and abbreviated
skirt.
A Fine Stalk, of Cotton.
We received yesterday through a young
merchant of this city, an extra fine stalk of
cotton raised by Mr. W. Trulock, of Whig-
ham, Decatur county, Ga. It stood six and
a half feet high aud bore two hundred and
thirty-one bolls. We understand that the
stalk was almost bent to the ground by the
weight of its fruit.
Ctfrefl of Drinking.
“A young frisad of njipe was cured of an
insatiable thirst for liquor, wbteb hqd 6p
prostrated him that he was unable to do apy
business. He was entirely cured by the use
of Hop Bitters. It allayed all that burning
thirst; took away the appetite for liquor;
made his nerves steady, and he has remain
ed a Bober and eteadj man for more than
two years, and has no desire to return to his
caps; I know of a number of others that
have been cured of drinking by It.”—From

TRADE EDITION.
ZTI a m moth Issue on the 4th of
September.
The annual review of the markets for the
commercial year will be issued on Satur
day, September 4th, and we propose to make
this edition a special feature, the same as
was done last year, and which met with such
a decided support from our enterprising
merchants. The review will be presented
in the form of a mammoth eight-
page sheet, 38x52 inches, and in size and
make up will surpass anything of the
kind which has ever been published
in Savannah, if not in the cotton growing
States. It will comprise an exhaustive sum
mary of the business of the city during the
previous twelve months, including its mer
cantile interests in all their various branches,
and also a resume of its shipping and com
mercial news for that period. This issue of
the Morning News will be one which every
citizen, whether a business man or not, will
take pride in sending abroad as an evidence
of the prosperity of the city and section in
which he lives, and will give to those who
have never before e^mined into the matter
a proper appreciation of Savannah’s impor
tance as the great commercial emporium of
the two most progressive 8tates in the South
ern section of the American Union.
The Trade Issue of the Morning News,
in addition to being sent to all the daily
subscribers by carrier and mail, will be
mailed to every subscriber to the Tri-
Weekly News, the Weekly News, and
the Southern Farmer's Monthly, which, with
the copies sent out to addresses furnished us
by our advertisers, will give it an aggregate
circulation of 20,000 to 25,000 copies among
100,000 people who look to the Morning
News for information on all subjects, and
who represent the purchasing interest of
their localities.
This edition will thus find its way into
every household in the immense area of
country directly tributary to Savannah, and
at a time when the people have means to
purchase and are buying supplies for the
fall and winter, and when an advertisement
will have the effect of a direct communica
tion from the merchant to the buyer.
Advertisements received for this edition
at usual rates.
Matter* and nines Laconically

circles yesterday.

The mercury does not climb so high up

weather, and grumbling is general.
We have received a communication
signed “Colored Visitors,” complaining of
the decision in the colored base ball contest,
awardmgthe championship to the Chathams,
and using some rather harsh language. As
the writer is not known we cannot publish
it.

Tlic military Gathering In Atlanta-
Ample Accommodation.
Atlanta, Ga., August 24.—Editor Morn
ing Newt: Several letters have been received
here from jour city asking if ample accom
modation can be furnished to the military
and citizens of Savannah during the great
reunion of the citizen soldiery of the North
end South, under the auspices of the Gate
City Guard, to take place iu Atlanta next
October. As there appears to be an im
pression that sufficient accommodation
cannot be provided, I am instructed by the
proper committee to say that only a certain
uumber of military organizations have been
invited, and provision has been made for
them, so that all those who come will fiDd
their camp prepared, tents floored, and
wagons to take their baggage on arrival.
The restaurant at the camp will be sufficient
to accommodate all the visiting mllitiry.
In addition to this the restaurants, hotels
aud boarding houses of the city will be fully
prepared to accommodate all who may
come. I hope this statement will correct
any fear on behalf of the military and civil
ians of your city who will visit us.
Very respectfully,
T. A. Clayton,
Member Gate City Guard.
Stabbed In the Shoulder.
We learn that a difficulty occurred at the
Central Railroad depot last evening, about
half-past seven o’clock, between two young
men, which resulted in one of the
parties being severely 6tabbed in
the shoulder. Our informant states
that a young man named Conners,
who is said to be from Augusta, was stand
ing in the depot, when he was approached
by a young man by tfip name of Nugent,
who remarked to him that he could whip
him in about two minutes, at the same time
striking him a severe blow across the face,
whereupon Conners drew his knife and
stabbed his assailant in the shoulder, in
flicting a very ugly gash. Conners then
walked off, Nugent poutinuing his threats
and making a movement towards his hip
pocket as though about to draw
a pistol, which action was noticed by Con
ners, who remarked to him that it would
be well for him to restrain himself, or he
would get hurt. Nugent proceeded to the
office of Dr. Chisholm, who dressed the
wound, sewing up the ugly gash by takiDg
several stitches.
Post Office Ruling**.
A new ruling of the Post Office Depart
ment goes into effect October 1st. It pro
hibits the use of any other card than the
postal card Issued by the Department, un
less a three-cent stamp is attached thereto.
Another ruling is that an order for goods
being a document on which suit may be
njaintained, has a monetary value, and is,
therefore, subject to rules of first-class
postage.
Another Warrant to be Ivsued.
A communication from Dr. D. Curry states
that Mr. John Brantley, of Johnson coun
ty, whose hearing before United States
Commissioner Beckett has been noticed,
was discharged from custody by reasou of a
defect in the warrant, and hot from want of
testimony, and that in all probability anuth.-
er warrant will be issued sgainst him.

chanics’ Brass Band has been engaged, and
those inclined to tripping the light
fantastic, will have the choice of fine plat
forms. During the absence of the boats the
visitors will be entertained by various
amusements, pole climbing, sack racing,
etc. Altogether the prospects for a very
pleasant afternoon are favorable, and a
large crowd may be anticipated.

o’clock. The entries are as follows:

Base Ball Tournament—The End of
the Contest.
According to announcement yesterday,
the Chathams of Savannah and Fox Hunt
ers of Macon met promptly on the new
ground beyond the Park extension, at 11
o’clock sharp. The clubs appeared In full
uniform, the Fox Hunters to the bat. The
game was spirited and hotly contested by
both clubs. The playing was hard on the
nines, on account of the severe heat, yet
they fought manfully and created much en
thusiasm, as the spectators would give cheer
after cheer for the Chathams, who made
several home runs. Fully two thousand
people were on tne grounds, and the nines
played with a will from commencement to
end. The Chathams are a crack nine, and
understand the science of handling the ball
and bat. The Fox Hunters follow as the
next best nine in the South. Their playing
was excellent, and gave entire satisfaction
to the managers of the association aud the
Chathams, whom they were playing. The
club is a good one, and is a credit to the
city from which it came, all of the members
being the respectable class of colored men
of Macon. The following is the score of the
game: Chathams 26. Fox Hunters 10. Af
ter the game closed the respective
clubs proceeded to Empire Hall, where the
association had prepared for them a colla
tion in first class style; the other clubs
joining them there, and they had a pleasant
time together. After th** collation the
prizes were to be presented to the winning
contestants by John H. Deveaux, but on
account of indisposition he could not at
tend. The vacancy was immediately filled
by Robert H. Harden, who presented the
prizes with an excellent address, which was
received with loud applause. When the
championship medal and purse of $10 in
gold was presented to the Chathams, the
Captain, Thos. Simmons, responded with an
appropriate address, and the Chathams, of
Savannah, were pronounced the champions
of the South. The Fox Hunters were sec-
oud in the championship, and two of Ryan’s
professional dead red balls were presented
to them for fine playing aud manly conduct
by the association. Several prizes were also
presented to the other clubs for fine play
ing. The only dissatisfied club who en
tered the contest was the Athletics,
of Jacksonville. They left the field
at Thunderbolt before the game
was over, and the game was lost by the
Chathams. The association claims that no
blame can be attached to them, as the
visitora were well treated. Accordinj
to the rules of 1S79, the Chathams woul<
fetand 18, and the Athletics 13. But, accord
ing to the rules of 1880, the Chathams would
be 9, and the Athletics 0. From the begin
ning to the end of the contest the best
order was observed, and we can safely say
that the 2,000 colored visitors to the col
ored base ball contest were the most orderly
colored excursionists we have ever had to
visit our city. The Base Ball Association
deserve much credit for their good manage
ment of the contest and its success.
The next aunual base ball contest will
take place in Macon, at Central City Park,
under the auspices of the same association.
The association are profuse In their
thanks to Capt. M. J. Doyle for the use of
the race course, and his personal attention.
The last of the excursionists departed for
home last night, and report having had a
delightful time In the Forest City.

Harris, 8. T. Coleman, W. E. Flanders and
Dr. J. S. Baxter. _ m

ent and General Manager, represented the
Macon and Brunswick Railroad.
The Southern Railway and Steamship As
sociation was represented by Virgil Powers,
General Commissioner, and C. B. Wallace,
Agent.
The interest of the meeting centered in
CIRCULAR NO. 10.
Office of the Railroad Commission,
Atlanta, Ga., August 13, 1880—Upon a
full and careful consideration of the elabo
rate reports of the Central Railroad and
Banking Company, the Atlanta and Char
lotte Air Line Railway Company, and the
Macon and Brunswick Railroad Company,
showing the effect of the rates authorized
by the Commission on their business for May
aud June, 1ST9 and 1880, the following
changes are made in the relations of these
companies to the standard tariff:
The Central Railroad and Banking Com
pany. First. The Central Railroad and
Banking Company is authorized to operate
their railroads in the following divisions:
The Savannah; the Southwestern Railroad;
the Atlanta: the Savannah: Griffin and North
Alabama Railroad.
8econd. On the Savannah and South
western Railroad division and the Savannah,
Griffia and North Alabama Railroad, upon
all classes other than “specials” the maxi
mum freight rates between 0 and 40 miles
to be 50 percent, on standard rates; between
40 and 70 miles, 40 per cent; between 70 and
100 miles, 30 per cent., and 100 miles and
over, 20 per cent., as heretofore fixed.
Third. Upon the Atlanta division on all
classes other than “specials,” the maximum
rates to be 30 per cent, over “standard.”
Fourth. Upon cotton (class J) the maxi
mum on either division or on Savannah,
Griffin and North Alabama Railroad, for all
distances, 6hall be 15 per ceDt. above
“standard.” Ali other “specials” (K, L,
M, N, O and P) remain at “standard.”
Fifth. A tariff of joint rates on all the
roads operated by the Central Railroad and
Banking Company, prepared with the ap
probation of the Commission, will be
furnished by the company on application.
James M. Smith, Chairman.
R. A. Bacon, Secretary.
Messrs. Raoul, Whitehead, Powers and
the committee from Macon, argued in favor
of the increased rates allowed the Central
Railroad by this order. Macon favored it
because they were allowed a difference of 5
per cent, per hundred pounds on cotton,
that is the through rates on cotton from
points on the Southwestern and the Atlanta
divisions and Savannah, Griffin and North
Alabama Railroad should be 5 cents per
hundred only less than the sums of the
locals. Prior to the issuing of circular No.
10, the rates on cotton on the Central Rail
road and the Southwestern Railroad were
made under the order of the Commissioners
as if on one continuous line, and thi6 gave
Savannah or Atlanta the power to
draw cotton from the Southwestern Rail
road at a very small increase over
the rate to Macon. The Central Railroad
claimed that each division of their line
should be worked as a separate railroad.
Macon had a contract also with the old
Southwestern Railroad, that the rate from
Oglethorpe and points this side to Savannah
should always be made so that the sums of
the locals should be very little above the
through rate. The continuance of Rule 1,
enforced by the Commissioners, worked
great injury to Macon, and wa6 an abroga
tion of the contract between the city and
the road. Under this view the Commission
ers felt constrained to change Rule 1, so as
that each division could be worked sep-
make a joiot rate on all kinds of freights
believed that when these joint rates are dis
tributed the different sections where disaf
fection toward the action of the Commis
sioners now exists, it will be dissipated.
These joint rates will be applicable for tht
same number of miles from Atlanta, Colum
two conflicting interests is nearly impossible,
all know. From what we can learn, there
is great hope that the joint rate6 will come
very near doing this.
The Constitution, from which we c!
above, says:
“Atlanta has wisely kept her mouth shut,
with Savannah and Columbus, and even
small advantage on other articles, we will
wager that Atlanta drummers and cotton
capital.
“As this southwestern territory Is open to
Columbus as well as to Atlanta—both of
which places have heretofore had little or
no chance to secure cotton then —
buyers will have to watch that point.
”The Central Railroad Is fixing millers’
rates so as to let in flour and meal so
abundantly produced in North Georgia into
the southwestern territory on an equal
footing with Western products.
“The meeting lasted several hours, and
adjourned until the 31st instant, to hear
legal arguments from the attorneys of the
Central Railroad and other points lepre-
sented in the meeting Tuesday.” pH i

To the Savannah BuaincM IQen Who
\yi»h to Control the Country
Trade.
We iuvite their attention to the followicg|
The DuPont Okejenokean is published in the
heart of the country that Is directly tribuf
tary to Savannah, ^nd at the junction of the
only railroad into Florida. We therefore
claim unusual advantages for our paper as
an advertising medium upon the following
grounds: That our paper circulates extenl
sively over Southern Georgia and a large
portion of Florida; that it Is the only paper
in the county; that its circulation is twelve
times over the largeat circulating paper that
comes to the county; that it has been estab
lished nearly four years; that the capital
backing it is sufficient to preclude the pos
sibility of a suspension, that DuPont is vir
tually a suburb of Sayaunah, owing
to the fact that the Savannah, Florida aud
Western Railway pays to its employes here
each month from fifteen hundred to two
thousand dollars. That nearly every dollar
goes to Savannah, because these men do
their trading in Savannah. Merchants that
claim only a local trade and do not think
country advertising pays, will do well to
dispel that idea, and try for this trade. That
commencing with the middle of September
or first of October, we guarantee to put into
the hands of each passenger passing here a
copy of the Okefenokean, thereby giving our
advertisers advantages not offered by any
other paper, and which they must see at a
glance stamps the Okefenokean as one of the
very best advertising mediums In the coun
try. Our trains carry passengers to all
parts of Florida, aouthvest Georgia,
and merchants to Savannah. They can read
the {Jfyfenokean oh the train, and govprn
themselves accordingly where to buy, etc.
Tills Pl fln Of tree distribution, in connec
tion with regular circulation, possesses the
advantages of a first-class journal, adver
tising medium and circular combined. By
this method the paper will find its way Into
every household in the immense area of
country directly tributary to Savannah, and
at a time of year when the people have
means to purchase, and are buying and sup
plying for the fall and winter, and when
the advertisement will have the effect of a
direct communication from merchant to the
buyer. Our Mr. Darby will call on the mer
chants of Savannah in a few days to present
our claims. Ed. Okefenokean.
