A Fight Between Seamen.
A fight occurred on Wednesday evening
1 at the Savannah, Florida and Western Rill
way wharves, between the men of a Nor
wegian vessel and some sailors, which at
one time looked as if It would result in a
general row. A sailor and a colored man
Sad some words, when the sailor hit him a
: heavy blow in the jaw, felling him to the
ground, when three other colored men
jl started to his assistance, but were succes
sively knocked down by the sailor as they
* reached him, who seemed to be something
i of a pugilist, judging from his powerful
I blows. Some of the sailors started to their
comrade’s assistance, but as the result
' proved he did not need any.

The Soiree .Vluatcale—A Flattering:
Succes*.
The Theatre la6t evening was filled by an
attentive and pleased audience, gathered to
enjoy the soiree muslcale under the direc
tion of Mile. St. R.ques. The entertain
ment was surprise to the majority of the
audience, ovho did not anticipate anything
more than a children’s exhibition, in which
would be displayed the precocionsness of a
few promising pupils, in addition to the
singing of two popular singers. It proved,
howeyer, to be a most interesting
and pleasing affair, and developed
a wonderful amount of musical
talent. It would be difficult to say which
of the young misses deserved the most
praise as all did, well. Piano doers were
placed by Misses E Douglass and R Krous
kclf. Misses Marruelsteln and James, Misses
Mannelstein and Paulsen, Misses Appel and
Her:<hbach, Misses Marmels’ein and Btf rn.
Rosa L. Douglass, a very petite miss, recited
“The Modern Belle” and was encored, and
performed a piano solo “Twilight.” The
champion of thn evening was IPtle Krous
koff, eight years old, who played “La Som
nambula” with wonderful skill. The
piano trio ty Misses Marmelstetn, B:ern
and IV rlinski and particularly the “Battle
of Manassas,” by the latter, were excel
lently well rendered. Among the other
fra’n r es was a duet for two pianos
by Ml=6es M.vmeleteln, Btern, James and
Perllnski, and piano solos by Miss Marmel
ste.n, Mis* O. Sterr, Mies Sarah Appel, Miss
Katie .James, Miss Sarah La Roche and Miss
sle Herachbach. and a solo for two pianos
twPh cactice's) by Misses Perllnrkl,
Krou'koff, E. Doug'as, Marmelstdn, Stern,
Appel, Hersehbach and R. Douglas. Miss
Adce Sutton’s song, “The Blind Girl to Her
Harp.” and the vocal duet by the same lady
and Mlis Caton were received with ap
plause.
“The Last Rose of Bummer,” piano solo,-
by Miss I. Stern, was played in spier dtd
style, remarkable In cne so young.
Mr. W. F. Mav, the popularhenor, sang
“When the Tide Comes In” superbly, and
was enthusiastically encored, and “Dear
Kitty” was capitally sung by Mrs. Kate
Halgh.
Altogether the soiree muslcale was a grand
and flittering success, quite creditable to
Mile. St. Roques, who had arranged it.
Promenade Concert Lilt Night.
The promenade concert at the Masonic
Temple last night, under the auspices of
the Ladies’ Church Aid Boclety, was in
every respect a great success. Long before
the hour for the entertainment to begin the
hall was comfortably filled by an apprecia
tive and critical audience, attracted by the
well-known musical talent of the ladles and
gentlemen who had so kindly volunteered
their services on the occasion. The pro
g amine throughout was delightfully
rendered. It consisted of a duet on the
pianoforte by Mrs. Walter G. Charlton and
Mss Johnston, which elicited loud ap
plause. This was followed by a violin solo
by Mr. Junes Douglass. Of course his per
formance created enthusiasm, and an encore
was called for, which was gracefully ac
knowledged. After this was a song, and
excellently sung, by Mr. Edward T. Harden,
followed by one from Miss Bracewell, In
which that lady by her sweet blrd-llke
toce3 took captive the audience. She was
also encored, but failed to respond. After
this, Mrs. Charlton performed exquisitely
a piano solo, which elicited universal
commendation, and she was fol
lowed by a duet from Ernanl
by Mrs. Cleveland and Mr. Nita, which they
were called upon to repeat, and which they
did to the gratification of the entire assem
blage.
The seventh number was a 6ong, “Les
Rameaux,” by Mr. C. W. King, so well
rendered that the audience insisted upon
his again singing, and he was followed by a
song, “L’Estase,” by Mrs. King, who also
gained well deserved and hearty plaudits.
This was the last number on the programme,
but, at the request of a number of ladles
present, Miss Bracewell was induced to sing
again. She favored the audience with the
charming song, “Twicktnham Ferry," which
literally took the house by storm.
After the musical entertainment, the hall
was cleared for dancing, and many present
entered heartily in that amusement until a
late hour. The handsome refreshment ta
bles were also liberally patronized, and
added materially to the exchequer of the
society. The entertainment as an entirety
was one of the most enjoyable ever given In
the city, and reflected great credit upon the
ladies of the association having it in charge.
Tbe Be'.betdt Building.
The custom of putting in a picture of the
Orphan Houee at Bethesda may lead those
who have never visited that historic spot to
believe that such a magnificent edifice is a
reality. In fact, we heard a gentleman yes
terday remark that it must be a building
well worthy of the society. The truth is the
lllustra’ion represents the orphan bouse as
It is to be, but at this time the “noble pile”
only exists on the paper. The central build
ing Is there, save the magnificent portico
and the graceful cupola, tbe former entirely
Imaginary, while the latter consists merely
of I's frame-work roofed In.
The wing 6 represented in the picture and
in the plan, Intended for aming room,
kitchen, wash-rooms, chapel and extriddor
mltories, are myths. Even the large building
is stmply the unfinished walls and flooring ;
it, is tenantable and comfortable, that is all.
Several efforts have been made to raise
funds to do something towards completing
tbe building, but the numerous andincreas
log demands on tbe society have not only
taken its limited income, but also all dona
tions. There has been of late years no
money to spare for anything but absolute
necessities. This little statement is ODly
made because those who may have seen the
picture and not the place may think differ
ently.

THE JASPER GREENS.
Tbe Prize Drlll-A Splendid Conte*!
Followed by ■ Pleasant Hop.
Last evening the Armory of the Irish
Jasper Greens presented a brilliant and at
tractive scene, tbe occasion being the an
nual prize drill of the company, which was
to be followed by a hop. The hall was
tastefully decorated with flags and bunting.
Seats were provided for the spectators, and
all were occupied some time before the
commencement of the contest. The at
tendance of the fair aex was very large, and
exceedingly flattering to the gallant corps.
We noticed among those present represen
tatives from all the commands in the city,
who seemed to take a lively interest in the
contest. On a stand erected in a convenient
portion of the ball were stationed the Savan
nah Volunteer Guards Band, who discoursed
numerous popular airs In their accustomed
fine style during tbe evening.
At eight o’clock the company, number
ing forty rank and file, were formed
in line, and went through a preliminary
drill for the entertainment of the audience,
and which was very highly enjoyed. The
company evidenced in this exercise in the
marutl tof arms the thoroughness of their
Instruction, and we are glad to announce
as the verdict of the military men present
that It was exceptionally fine.
The contest was opened a few minutes be
fore nine o’clock with twenty-four members
in the racks. The jujge6 were Colonel Clif
ford W. AndersoD, Captain Robert Falil
gant, Captain H. M. Branch, Captain P. N.
Ravnal and Captain John Derst.
The company were drilled alternately by
Captain Flannery, Lieutenant Peter Rlelly,
Lieutenant James McGrath and Lieutenant
E. J. Kennedy, and the fact that the contest
lasted over an hour Is indicative of the ex
cellence of the competitors. The drill was
exceedingly rigid and tor the slightest mis
take a contestant was thrown out. The
following shows the order in which the
members dropped out under the close scru
tiny of the judges:
1— Private J. J. Connolly.
2 Corporal McNoonan.
3 Sergeant O'Connor.
4 Private Lamotte.
5 Private T. A. McMahon.
6 Sergeant Hart.
7 Private J. T McMahon.
8— Private M. Hennessy.
9 Private Houlihan.
10— Private Keirnan.
11— Private O’Nell.
12— Private Dougherty.
13— Private Lsfflteau.
14— Private Vaughn.
15 — Private Murphy.
16— Private McCarthy Dennis.
17— Corporal M. McMahon.
18— Corporal Wal -h.
19— Private P. J O'Connor.
20— Private P. F. Gleason.
2t— Private L J. Kelly.
22 Sergeant Daley.
23 — Private M. A O’Byrne.
24 — Sergeant Reynolds.
When the last named five were left on the
floor the interest among the spectators in
creased, and so well matched were they that
one Was reluc'ant to predict who would be
victorious Finally two dropped out, and
Bergeant Reynold 3 , Bergeant Daly and Pri
va’e M. A. O’Byrne were alone left to tattle
for the victory. They were exercised la the
manual most rigidly for several minutes,
when Bergeant Daly made a slight mistake,
stepped out, leaving Private O’Byrne and
Sergeant Reynolds to contend for the first
honor. They stood the ordeal manfully,
and It appeared that neither would yield.
Af:er going through the manual rapidlv and
rigidly for some minutes. Private O’Byrce
made a slight mls’ake and was ordered out,
leaving Sergeant Reynolds the victor. The
result was greeted with the applause of tbe
audience.
Afer a shert rest the company was re
formed, when Colonel Anderson addri-ssed
them briefly, complimenting the ccps
highly for the splendid exhibition of their
efficiency and skill, and then introduced
Cop'ain Robert Falligant, who, in most elo
quent and felicitous style, presented tbe
prizes to the three fortuuate ones, who had
been summoned to the front abd
cewtre. Hi# remarks were peculiarly
approprla T e and beautiful, ami elicited
the most enthusiastic applause, and were
exceedingly gratifying to the companv-
Private M. A O’Bvrne, In behalf of the gal
lant three, responded in an exceedingly fe
licitous style. The awards were as follows:
First prize, as best drilled member of the
corps, to S*rgeant Reynolds —a gold medal
and an rerthetic clock.
Beeond priz=*, to Priv itc M \ O’Byrne,
as nut best drilled soldier —a r a tea set.
Third prize, to Sergeant D ,as third
best drilled soldier—a hander _;o card re
ceiver.
After the presentation of the prizes the
corps were d'sm'ssed. and the floor was
cleared for the hop For this social pleas
ure the committee —Lieutenant Peter Reilly,
Sergeant J. M. Reynolds, Corporal M. Mc-
Mlion, Private P. J. O’Connor, Private M.
A. O’Byrne—had made all necessary ar
rangements, and being experienced in this
line, the results were extremely satisfactory
and erjoyable.
The Terpslchorean pleasures were con
tinued until a late hour, and the occasion
will long be remembered by all who had the
good fortune to be present. The Greens
have done themselves Infinite credit both
in the drill and in the hop, and we predict
for them a future that will surpass the fame
they achieved in the past.
Mertoue, but Fal*e.
Editor Adorning News-. I pray you the
privilege of space In your paper, that its
wide circulation may make public these
facts In every part of the land.
While reading the Bavannah Morning
News, of the 13th Inst., an article, clipped
from the New York Times, headed, “A Se
rious Charge,” attracted my attention.
After reading it carefully I discovered that,
while a discussion was pending in regard to
the “tr-mperance needs of the freedmen”
In a meeting of the “National Temperance
Boeietv,” held In the Free Baptist Church,
of New York, on the 9rh Inst., one J. N.
Stearns, the Corresponding Secretary of the
Society, made this astounding statement
with emphasis, “That In Savannah there
are twenty-eight colored churches and each
pastor is a confirmed whisky drinker."
Having an extensive knowledge of the
religious history of Savannah, I do declare
with the emphasis of my soul that, this is a
‘ confirmed ” lie. Never was such a state
ment mor e false and untrue, so bottomless and
naked.
This gross and malignant assertion Is
maliciously infamous, and would find no
utterance In a Christian gentleman or man
of inteeri'y.
The News denied It, and all Savannah de
nies his brutal assertion.
This slanderous charge, if not denied,
would lead many who are Ignorant of the
religious affairs of the city to believe his
story and give It credence.
8o also his statement in reference to the
number of churches is erroneous, for there
are but sixteen. It goes to prove that he
has no knowledge of the truth of the
declaration he heralds to the world.
If the pledge that the gentleman has
made, to totally abstain from the Intoxicat
ing beverage, has as much truth in It as has
hla statement concerning the colored
clergymen of Savannah, God hrln his false
and worthless document. While intemper
ance Is a great evil, and la much deplored
by the progressive intelligence of the
country, and ought to be banished from Its
unrighteous throne, It has as many white
worshippers as It has colored.
Will the gentleman explain what he
means by saying that the “temperance laws
were defeated wherever the colored votes
were In the majority,” when there are so
few places that their vote ts dominant ? and
how they are able to defeat the passage of a
“temperance law” and fad to elect repre
sentatives in the public service after having
voted as a unit for them ? And why do 60
many “temperance laws” find an early grave
In the msiorlty of the legislative assemblies
of the country, where the vote of the color
ed man Is an extreme minority ? The prepos
terous absurdity of hts story is at once per
ceptible.
In Georgia we have a large number of
“prohibitory” counties. Is It so in your
State, Mr. Stearns?
This evil can be s'ifled without your mode
of “sending Northern men to preach tem
perance” among us. The very pulpit that
you have vainly endeavored to desecrate Is
loudest In Its thundering tones of “touch
not, tasto r.o?, handle not the unclean thing,
for It blte'h like a sen ent and stingeth life*'
an adder.”
Our moral condition In the South Is not
so deplorable as you paint It. If any of
your friends want to ec joy the salubrious
climate of Savannah or Florida, let him pay
his way as a tourist, and not cloak himself
In the garb of the “temperance preacher.”
I would suegest that, the colored minis
ters hold an lDdfgnatfon meeting, If need be.
These facts, which are hewn from the block
of truth, can be corroborated and sustained
by the signatures of the entire population
of Savannah.
I ask every journal, white and colored, to
copy this letter and give It a wide publica
tion that tbe truth and honor of this mis
represented race In the South may be vindi
cated. I am, yours truly,
James A. Sties,
A native Sav&nnahian.
Editor Morning ft aex: Allow me space
through your valuable Journal to return our
thanks to you for tne publication of the
article published in the New York Times
of the 10th Instant, in regard to the
charge made at a public meeting In New
York city, by one J. N. Btearns, in which he
asserted that In Savannah there were twenty
eight colored churches and each pastor was
a confirmed whisky drinker, and that holy
brother went on to accuse the whole South
In a like manner. I now beg leave to In
form the pastor and members of the Free
Baptist Church of New York, and the
National Temperance Society, in which J.
N. Stearns embraced the opportunity to
hatch out the above statement, that It is
without foundation. As nine hundred
brethren will arrive In this city on the 24th
day of May next, to attend the Georgia
Baptists’ Btate Convention, which will be
held at the First African Baptist Church,
we will, until then, let the matter rest, but
he must look out for the future.

“Dr. Heldt, of Savannah, addressed the
association on two circulars issued bv the
association and the State Board of Pharma
ceutical Examiners, which had given rise to
some unpleasantness. He declared that the
association intended no offense or personal
disrespect, and that the Board of Emamincrs
were ready to unite in a mutual disclaimer
of any personal cflense or disrespect, and to
submit the legal question at issue to the
courts for Interpretation.
“There was some bitterness in Dr. Heidt’s
remarks, and in reply to him Dr. Pemberton
said he had been pronounced out of order
by the Chair before the gentleman from
Savannah was allowed the floor. But now,
In conclusion, he desired to utter but just
three words; that If the gentleman alluded
to him in his personalities, as an expression
of what he felt for him he wished these
three words to be written in letters of light,
‘scorn! scorn! scorn.’
“Some strong language passed between the
two gentlemen, which seemed for a time to
promise something more lively, but things
finally became quiet and the business pro
ceeded.
“The committee on election of officers for
the ensuing year reported the following
names: J. W. Rankin, cf Atlanta, Presi
dent; A. A. Solomons, of Savannah, First
Vice President; George J. Howard, of At
lanta, Second Vice President; A. M. Bran
non, of Columbus, Third Vice President; J.
T. Shuptrtne, of Savannah, Recording Sec
retary; T. L Massenberg, of Macon, Treas
urer; G. M. Heldt, of Savannah, Correspond
ing Secretary. These gentlemen were
unanimously elected, and Mr. Rankin, the
newly elected President, was conducted to
the chair by Messrs. Keifer, of Savannah,
aod Jacobs, of Athens, who were appointed
a committee for that, purpose.
“An interesting paper was read by Mr.
Jacobs, of Athenp, which gave rise to some
pleasant discussion.
“A committee was appointed to prepare a
charter, and the board adjourned until 9:30
o’clock this morning ”
The Augusta E‘ aiing News thus refers to
one of the circulars alluded to:
“Dr. Barry was very anxious to be present,
for it appears that the druggists of the B‘ate
have been mUled about the fees charged for
license or examination by the Board of Ex
aminers. Indeed, it is said that the oppo
nents of the board have not only been cir
culating absurd statements about additional
fees to be charged every four years, but
have actually sent emmissaries to this and
other cities to get the proxies of druggists
la order to pass a vote of censure against the
Board of Examiners. No Augusta drug
gists were eulled by these statements, with
the exception of one or two on the out
skirts, aud when the true inwardness
of the affair was explained they not only re
voked their proxies, but gave them In favor
of the board. If Dr. Barry had gone up he
would have made It lively for the few mal
contents, and would have wrung the
changes on the unfair charges against the
board. His able associates will be present
at the meeting and more than m°et any such
attack, and such men as J. 8. Pemberton,
John Ingalls, Osceola Butler, Isidore
Zacbarias and Edward Barry are too well
known and too highly esteemed by the
druggists of Georgia to be censured, when
they a r e now giving their time and talent, to
the elevation of the profession and to main
taining a high standard before entrance to
and while Inside the responsible circle of
Georgia pharmacists.”
THE GRAND COM M 4NOEIIT OF
KNIGHTS TEMFL lit,
Tli* Meeting in Savannih-Mhat (lie
Atlanta Knight* Propose— Will
3 hey \\ in the PrTza ?
For some time past the Knights Templar
of Atlanta have been discussing the grand
conclave which Is to be held In Savannah
next month. Their nightly drills and their
expressed determination to carry off the
prizes at the conclave have somewhat en
thused the entire fraternity,until the subject
has been brought prominently to the notice
of the public generally. On Wednesday,
says tbe Constitution, one of our representa
tives met Major Howard, Eminent Com
mander of Coeur de Lion Commandery, who
In response to questions said.
“Yes, we are going In full force. The
Grand Commandery of Georgia holds its
annual grand conclave in Savannah on the
17ch of Mav. and there will be a large at
tendance. Every Commandery in Georgia
will be there. The Palestine Commandery,
of New York city, and a Charleston, 8. C.,
Commandery, besides others outside of the
Btate, have promised to participate.”
“So you think Atlanta will be repre
sented ?”
“Yes, from what I see and hear I think
Coeur de Lion Commandery will go to a
man. We expect to go In good style and
to have a good time. Mr. Dave Appier,
agent at this place for the Central road, has
kindly secured us reduced rates and special
cars. At noon, on the 10th of May, the
Bir Knights will assemble at their asylum,
and In fatigue uniform will march to the
Union depot, where we will join our ladles
and board our special cars.”
“Then you will have your ladles with
you ?”
“Oh. yes. Our cars, although supplied
with all refreshments and handsomely deco
rated, would not be attractive without our
ladles. Besides this, Sir Knights are never
satiffled on an excursion unless their wives
are with ’em.”
“Wbat will you do In Savannah ?”
“Well, when we reach the city, we will,
in full uniform, march to our hotel, while
our ladles will be escorted by a special de
tachment. But as to the programme, I have
no definite or official knowledge. However,
there wiil be during the conclave a
parade, the usual Templar services, an
address by Sir Knight Jno. 8. David
son, of Augusta, an excursion to the
sea on a magnificent and palatial ocean
steamer, a grand banquet, a ball, a competi
tive drill, etc. These arrangements are In
the hands of Palestine Commandery of Sa
vannah, and will be thorough and complete
before the time arrives. Palestine Com
mandery is composed of the wealthiest, most
Intelligent and prominent citizens of Sa
vannah.”
“Of course you will enter the prize drill.”
“And win the prize, too. Coeur de Idon
Commandery always succeeds, and when
we get bick we will bring the first prize,
and don’t you forget it.”
Prof. Henry Morton, President of
Steven* Institute f Technology,
on Self-Rai*lng Flour.
Hoboken, N. J., November 30, 1581.
Messrs. George V. Becker <fc Cos :
Gentlemen — I have had occasion to
make analyses of your Self-Raising Flour
and Buckwheat and Griddle Cake Flour on
a number of occasions, not only for you,
but for others who wished to know what
were the materials contained In these arti
cles, and have for many years used them In
my own family, and can testify most em
phatically that they are agreeable, nutri
tious and' perfectly wholesome. The ingre
dients employed In their preparation are
not only entirely harmless as so used, but.
have been recommended by the highest
authorities In medical and physiological
science, as the most wholesome, and in V.l
respects desirable preparations now known
for the purpose of raising bread, cakes, etc.
Yours, etc , Henry Morton.

SAVANNAH’S GROWTH.
The Largest City Sonth of Baltimore.
The rapid growth of our city, as shown
by the recent Directory census, must be
indeed gratifying to our people, and It is
but a matter of time, with our superior geo
graphical position, for Savannah to become
the largest Southern city. With the growth
of the city must be noted the expansion of
our business interests, and none is more
marked than that of Mitchell, the Clothier,
24 Whitaker street (Lyons’ Block), whose
motto has been ever “onward and upward.”
He has just returned from New York with
a splendid spring and summer stock of the
latest styles and patterns of men and boys’
drees and business suits, bats, furnishing
goods, and everything, in fact, necessary
for a gentleman’s complete outfit. As In
the past, his prices will be found equally
attractive aa his goods, and a visit to his
Emporium of Fashion will convince any one
that Mitchell is determined to lead.— Adv.
