We shall all go home to our Father's house,

Where the hopes of our souls have no flight.

And bathe in its blissful tide.
And one of the joys of our Heaven shall be

j A III KfiLAR DISCOVERED IN A
HOUSE.
lie is Fired at Four Times, but Es
capes with a Wounded Leg.
Yesterday morning about four o’clock,
Captain L. J. Guilinartin, residing on Har
ris street, near Whitaker, was awakened by
the noise of some one trying to pry open the
transom oyer his bed room door. At first
he could not account for the straoge noise,
but its repetition soon convinced him what
It was. He jumped out of bed, at the same
time calling his partner, Dr. C. R. Herron,
who wa6 asleep In the next room. The lat
ter was quickly on his feet, and seizing his
revolver, which was near at hand—
an unusual thing on such occa
sions — ru&hed out of the room
and before the burglar realized that he was
discovered fired at him as he stood hesitat
ing at the top of the stairs which direction
to take. The Doctor’s shot caused the bur
glar to leap down the stairs, followed by
another shot. He seemed to be bewildered
and rushed about in the wild endeavor to
find a convenient exit, and at last made a
dash for the dining room, making bis escape
through tbe same window by which he en
tered. Five snots were fired, but owing to
the darkness the burglar’s movements were
not discernible, except when he was
first seen. Only one shot, that the
first one ; is supposed to have t8k.ee effect.
The burgUr effected an entrance into the
house by climbing Tip the ai uw r qu tijs cast
side and catting a slat out of tho window,
by which b.O Was enabled to unlatch the
blind. The firing awakened the neighbors,
among them Dr. llaltiwanger, who, as he
looked out the window, saw a negro coming
from tbo direction of Captain Guilmartin’s,
limping and making off as rapidly as possi
ble. Captain Guilmartln’s pistol was not
handy, and before he got it ready the “bold
burglar had bolted.”

The Savannah Oil Iff ill.
VYithiu the past j-ear a cotton seed oil
m il has been established in our city by a
company known as the “Savannah Oil Com
pany.” These mills, wherever erected,
hive proved of inestimable advantage to
the neighboring planter, giving him a cash
market, for his seed in the fall months, and
supplying in the spring a cheap and most
valuable fertilizer in the shape of meal.
Ihe analysis of this meal by prominent
chemists shows ;it to contain all the ingre
dients of a first-class fertilizer, such as am
monia, phosphoric acid, potash, etc., in
’heir proper proportions, while the oil
which contains no fertilizing quality, but
in fact, a detriment to the soil), having
'*• en extracted, makes the meal far supe
rior to the seed itself, all the valuable quali
fies being concentrated in a convenient
form for immediate use. One ton of this
meal will go as far, and produce a greater
effect, than four or Mve tons of the seed.
The Savannah Oil Company, as per their
advertisement, are prepared to pay cash for
>ound cotton seed. Our planters and gin-
iicts will do well to take note of this and
open up a correspondence with the cotn-
i esting sketch of Savannah, to be published
with those of every other city in the country,
in a work giving the census and resources
of the United States.
At the Y'oung Men's Christian Associa
tion rooms, 137 Perry street, at 5 o’clock
this afternoon, there will be a song service
for the children and their friends. For any
who will unite In this song service there
will be rocm and a hearty welcome.

The Recent Hurricane.
The storm oil the Florida coast reported
by the Signal office on Sunday last, and of
which mention was made in the Mornisg
News of Wednesday, is beginning to be
heard from through the arrival of damaged
vessels. On Thursday two barks that had
suffered by the gale entered the port of
Charleston. One, a German bark, II. W.
Frundt, commander, left Brunswick, Ga.,
for Montevideo, laden with lumber, on
Tuesday, the *34th ultimo, and on Sunday,
the 20th ultimo, was caught in the hurri
cane, the wind varying from northeast- to
southeast. The bark w as then lu longitude
70, latitude 30. 8he sprang a leak, and the
Captain cut away the upper spars and threw
the deck load overboard. She has put in
there for repairs. The second vessel is
reported as a Spaniard from a port in Cuba,
but, as she is detained at quarantine, no
particulars have yet been learned by the
ffews and Courier, except that she has lost
her upper spars. Other disasters will no
doubt soon be reported.
Campaign Notes.
We clip the following paragraphs from
the State campaign column of the Augusta
Chronicle and Constitutionalist of yesterday :
“When such men as Hon. Henry R. Jack-
son, Colonel Anderson, Captain Robert
Saussy, Captain Robert Falligant and the
Riissells declare for Colquitt, Chatham’s
scale begins to turn.
A large and influential following has
Governor Colquitt in Savannah. Be>ides
those already mentioned, Judge Chisholm,
Messrs. Blun, llammoml, and dozens of
other prominent citizens support Governor
Colquitt.”

Among the most attractive establishments
In tbe city is the handsome and tastefully
fitted up dry goods emporium of Messrs.
Gustave Eckstein £ Co., at the corner of
Congress aod Whitaker streets. In ail its
appointments it is doubtful if a superior es
tablishment of the kind can be found in the
South. The firm are young men possessed
of tireless energy, and brim full of enter
prise, and their progressive spirit has re
sulted in giving to Savannah an cstablisn
ment which is a credit to the city. The
taste displayed in the arrangement
of their spacious show windows
is pleasing to the eye, and almost
involuntarily causes the passer-by to halt
and bestow more than a casual glance
upon the variety of elegant goods. It thus
happened that yesterday, as we were mean
dering along Congress street, cogitating
seriously upon the complex condition of
political affairs, our attention was drawn
to the pleasing appearance of the establish
ment, and obeying the impulse of the
moment, we dropped in, and after passing
by the corps of courteous clerks, encoun
tered In the office the popular senior of the
firm, Mr. Gustave Eckstein, who, as usual,
met us with a genial smile, and bid a hearty
welcome. Inquiring how business was, we
were gratified to learn that the summer
months had been exceptionally brisk, and
that the regular season had opened most en
couragingly, the firm now being pressed to
fill the orders that are being received by
every mall. In anticipation of this increas
ed business, the firm had laid in immense
stocks and perfected arrangements for keep
ing up the same through the entire seasoD.
goods being received constantly by rail and
steamers. A brief description of the estab
lishment, fa this connection, will not be uh-
inte resting:
In the basement, which was used by the
former occupants as a carpet wareroom, may
be found piled up in every direction bolts of
prints and domestics from the best manu
facturers, embracing the latest style and
patterns, and selected with a special view to
the accommodation of the want6 of this sec
tion.
On the first fioor is the retail department,
an elegant establishment in itself, thorough
ly stocked with everything in the dry goods
line — rich dress goods, together with a
splendid assortment of ribbons, embroider
ies, etc. The firm give particular attention
to the retail business, which has increased
rapidly, and the Btorc is now a great favor
ite with the ladies, who are always pleased
to find the best quality of goods at the moBt
reasonable prices.
Their wholesale business is on a firm
bcsls, and is being rapidly extended, orders
fr. m every portion of the territory tributary
to S' • annah being-received daily, and keep
ing ue large and efficient corps of salesmen
cc: 'autly and arduously employed In their
filli g. In truth Messrs. Eckstein & Co.,
without bdv undue flourish, have succeeded
iu &uilding up a very profitable and exten-
Se tPade, Ud 15 QT’kr t-2 SS?? 1 ? It iWYe
been compelled to pack their store to its
utmost capacity, with an Immense stock
occupying three fioorB and a basement,
besides a floor iu the adjoining building,
aud have all the facilities for doing a job
bing business on terms which cannot be
excelled by any house in tbe South. Their
enlarged facilities and ample means there
fore enable them to duplicate the bills of
the most extensive jobbing houses of the
North, freight Hot included.
Messrs. Eckstein & Co. raDk high in mer
cantile circles, and are known as enterpris
ing, liberal minded merchants, and fnlly
deserve by their energy and industry the
laige trade which they now enjoy, and
which, we are pleased to leara, is constant
ly increasing.
Their line of holsery and embroideries is
very complete, and we doubt If as fine se
lection of the latter can be found elsewhere
in this market. The Him are agents for the
Athens Manufacturing Company, \tbose
goods are popular throughout the entire
State, and have a ready sale not only in an-
joining States, but at the North, also of
Keep’s Manufacturing Companies, and have
a full stock of the goods of these concerns,
which are among the best made. The} make
the sale of black 6*1 ks a specialty, of which
they have a splendid line, comprising the
different qualities, and all at very reasonable
prices.
The notion department of the establish
ment is as complete In every particular as
could be desired, and it would be an almost
endless task to attempt to enumerate even
a portion of the articles therein contained.
Suffice it that everything in this line, to
gether with a well selected assortment of
stationery, can there be found. And our
friends in the interior, who desire to lay in
their fall stocks, will do well to call upon
Messrs. Eckstein Cc Co., or communicate
with them, as we are assured they will i e-
ceive every satisfaction, both as regards
goods and prices.
The firm have on the roau as their repre-
sentatlves Mr. J. McC. Tharin, a gentleman
noted foriis genial manners, cleverness and
excellent business qualifications, aud
through whose efforts the trade of the house
has been largely increased, and Mr. T. S.
Sanford, who has been recently secured by
the firm, and whose services have proven
of value and a decided acquisition to the
house.
Messrs. Eckstein A, Co. poesess capital
and facilities second to none iu their line of
business, and are able, therefore, to offer
liberal terms to all patrons. They are clever,
worthy gentlemen, and possessed of pro
gressive spirit, and are determined in the
future as in the past to deserve the patron
age of buyers in this bailiwick by always
keeping on hand ample stocks and offering
fair inducements.

A Colored Colonel.
Says tbe Augusta Chronicle and Constitu
tionalist of yesterday: “On Thursday morn
ing W. H. Woodhouse, of Savannah, an In
telligent colored man, who had been elected
Lieutenant Colonel of t-lie First Colored Vol
unteer Battalion of Georgia, appeared in the
city, llis object was to meet Adjutant
General John B. Baird of the State, and
Col. Wilberforce Daniel, by whom he was
examined before being commissioned to the
position he had been elected to fill. We
learn he stood a rigid examination in Up
ton’s tactics for fouY hours, and passed most
creditably and successfully the ordeal. He
will be recommended for his position. Last
evening, In compliment to their comrade—
who is the first colored man who has ob
tained so high a rank in Georgia, his friends
serenaded him at Douglass Hall. The brass
band played several airs, and in response to
calls Woodhouse appeared.
“He told of the strictness, yet fairness of
his military test, and said that he would
shortly receive his commission. He testi
fied to the falmees with which Governor
Colquitt bad acted in the matter; of the
willingness he had shown to aid the colored
people of Georgia, and concluded by say
ing that he would bear evidence of bis im
partiality before his colored friends of
Chatham.”
A Pleasaul Occasion.
Last evening the members of the E. M.
P. I. Social Club met at their rooms (Mozart
Hall) for the purpose of extending a recep
tion to their fellow member, Mr. C. M. Til
ton, who had just returned from the White
Sulphur Springs, where he had been for the
benefit of hia health, which was seriously
impaired. He returns perfectly restored,
and received a hearty welcome
from his friends. Over spark
ling champagne and choice Havanas, the
evening passed very pleasantly, being fur
ther enlivened by speeches, songs, toasts and
an impromptu dance. The club is composed
of some of tbe best young men in the city,
and is exceedingly popular. We return our
acknowledgments for a practical evidence
of the convivial character of the occasion.

Lamp Explosion.
About half-past five o'clock yesterday
morning the neighborhood of Price and Pres
ident streets was startled by the ciy of fire.
There was a general turn out of the occu
pants of the houses in the vicinity, when it
was discovered that the alarm was occasioned
by the explosion of a kerosene lamp in the
room next to the batcher shop on the north
east corner of Price and President streets.
The embryo conflagration was extinguished
without serious damage by tbe promptness
of the neighbors.
Prices of Prlutins aud Binding.
On the second page will be found the
prices of Mercantile and General Job Print
ing and Binding done at the Moaxixo News
Steam PriutiDg House. It will repay a care
ful perusal and comparison with prices
asked by other establishments, either In this
city or at the North and West. The repu-
tatio* of the office for good material and
work is well known in this city and in the
State.
We take peculiar gratification in direct
ing the attention of our readers to the mag
nificent exhibit in our columns this morning
of the various branches of trade in Savan
nah as represented by enterprising and
progressive merchants and business men.
It unmistakably demonstrates the fact that
the Savannah market is thoroughly stocked
with all lines of goods, and that the induce
ments offered by our merchants to the
trade throughout the entire territory
adjacent to and tributary to thi6 city
cannot be excelled. Certainly the fact
is patent that our Interior merchants and
tradesmen can save money and do as well,
if not better by trading here, than by incur
ring the expense and loss of time in visit
ing Northern or Western markets. We have
a few words to say personally in regard to
our advertisers, and the statements made
we commend to the careful consideration
of our readers, friends and patrons.
THE GREAT SOUTHERN MUSIC HOUSE.
Upon visiting the establishment of Messrs.
Ludden A Bates yesterday, we found them
in the vanguard of Savannah’s business
men who believe in, and work for, the grand
future of Georgia’s seaport city. The fin
ishing touches have been given to their ele
gant music emporium. Their ample office,
richly carpeted, and with all its appoint
ments, is complete; and here we found Mr.
Theo. J. Elmore—the champion financier,
and the only member of the firm now in the
city—receiving and directing the enormous
mails (sometimes exceeding three hundred
letters in a day) and distributing them to
the various departments, and with the large
clerical force running the ponderous ma
chine under full head of 6team.
Mr. W. Ludden is now in New York pre
paring new catalogues and music and book
publications for the fall trade, while Mr. J.
A. Bates is rusticating in the North, to re
turn with forty-horse-power vigor and bar
gains in new goods which none can resist.
A firm of such enterprise are of benefit to
the South, and well deserve the large de
gree of prosperity which has ever attended
them.
MESSRS. W. 15. MELL JC CO.,
who are successors to the flourishing busi
ness established in 1835 by the late N. B.
Knapp, have in their establishment a splen
did 6tock of everything in the harness and
saddlery ware line, the best quality
of rubber belting, packing, hose, leather,
etc., and a full line of cak and hemlock sole
leather, French and American calf skins,
shoe uppers and findings, and are prepared
to offer buyers tbe most liberal terms.
They also have a full assortment of trunks,
valises, traveling bags, etc. The firm are
universally known here as reputable, fair
dealing merchants, and their statement in
regard to anything may be implicitly relied
upon. They extend a cordial invitation id
all buyers to visit their establishment and
examine their stock. They will till all
drders from the country promptly and care
fully, and will furnish by mail all quota
tions for goods in their line. They are lo

No. 9
ff 1 ’- G. C. F. Preston, of Oglethorpe Lodge
No. 1.
P. G. J. W. White, of Live Oak Lodge
No. 3.
P. G. J. S. Tyson, of Golden Rule Lodge
No. 12.
P. G. C. F. Biancho, of Haupt Lodge
No. 53.
Tbe c ommittee retired to the anteroom.
After a brief absence they returned and pre
sented ibe following preamble and resolu
tions, which were unanimously adopted:
A brother has been removed from a life of
usefulness among us to the land of the pure
and holy. His life here had fitted him for citi
zenship there, and for the full enjoyment of
the peace which the world could never give.
It becomes us who are left behind to pause in
the “struggle incident to human life,' and re
flect upon the life and character of our deeeas
ed brother. It is our duty to note his virtues
and to emulate his example.
Past Grand Master ;Frank D. Jordan left his
friends on the morning of August i»th. strong
in health and buoyant in spirits. Twelve hours
after ire were sorrowfully conveying his pulse
less body back to those loving friends. Oh:
the poignancy of that sorrow, terrible in its
suddenness, overwhelming in its greatness,
and confounding in its reality. Deprived at
once of counsellor, friend and leader.we make
common cause of our grief and mingle our
tears together to-night.
Brother Jordan filled every office in the gift
of his Lodge and brought to the discharge of
these duties rare ability, unflagging zeal and
strict integrity. Modest and unassuming in
demeanor, he never sought advancement in
tbe order, but rather prefer to do his duty weil
as an humble member of his lodge. But when
responsibilities to re put upon him he accepted
them as a sacred trust, and lent new dignity
and value to every office he filled. As Grand
Master of the State his administration was
able, equitable and prosperous.
In all the characteristics of heart and head
he was eminently an Odd Fellow. He recog
nized its teachings as the guide to a perfect
manhood asd a pure life. His dailv walk was
an exemplification o€ the virtues inculcated by
our tenets.
Possessing a memory of remarkable correct
ness, he acquired the work of the order with
an exactness rarely ever attained. Having
mental abilities far above mediocrity, he ap-
E lied himself to the jurisprudence of Odd Kel-
>W6hip, and became unquestionable authority
upon its laws and usages.
His services and counsel were recognized as
valuable by all who knew him. They were
never solicited in vain, but were the property
of all, irrespective of lodge distinctions. He
recognized a common brotherhood, and with
such labored and loved.
His kindly offices to the sick, his readv coun
sel to the perplexed, his sympathy for the
distressed, and his aid and brother!y love lor
the erring will long be remembered and mis?e< 1
The eloquent tones, so often and earnestly
invoked in the cause of fraternity are hushed
forever. “The warm heart that throbbed for
others’ woes" has ceased to beat, and lias
“mouldered away and joined its kindred dust.’’
With this sorrow fresh ia Our hearts, and
with a lively remembrance of his virtues, we
as Odd Fellows of Savannah, do hereby
Resolve. That the death of Past Grand Mas
ter Francis D. Jordan is to the Odd Fellows of
this city a sore bereavement, as it deprives us
of a trusted counsellor, a devoted friend and
a zealous worker.

not appear to be in much sympathy.
The following: resolution was offered by
General Harrison, and adopted:
Whereas, a well appointed volunteer
militia adds to the peace, sjood order aud
dignity of the State, aud as the maintenance
of tbe same falls heavily upon the indivi
dual members both in time and money; be
it, therefore.
Resolved, That this association is in full
sympathy with the expressed views of the
late Military Mass Meeting, so far as asking
substantial aid from the State. But we
kindly but firmly withhold our assent from
nominations made by said meeting, not to
the men, but to the mode.
An advisory committee of twenty were
then appointed to make arrangements for
the campaign, and a committee of seven
selected to meet on Monday next, at twelve
o’clock, to decide upon three citizens to
be presented at the mass meeting to be held
on Thursday night next for nomination as
Representatives to the Legislature, anti to
consider action in reference to the Senato
rial and Congressional delegations.
The Gubernatorial Question.
After hearing tbe Gubernatorial question
discussed recently by both candidates, a
friend of the Jfojor’s was taken seriously iff
with fever from trying to make up his mind
whether or not he could stick by his friend
after having heard the other side argued.
Fortunately, a friend administered Kieffer’s
Peruvian Cure according to directions, and
in three days the gentleman was entirely
well, and now says he doesn’t care who is
elected, as long as he can get from any
druggist or country dealer Kieffer’s Peru

The Grand Central Hotel, 071 Broadway,
New York, has become very popular in the
hands of Its new proprietors, Messrs. Keefer,
McKinnie «fc Co. The reputation for ability
and liberality which these gentlemen gained
as managers of tbe Manhattan Beach Hotel
follow’ them in their new enterprise. A fact
may not be generally known is that the
Grand Central is the largest and best venti
lated hotel in New York, and from its cen
tral location makes it a very desirable hotel
for both business and pleasure seekers to
stop at.
