An Organized System of Stealing.
Avery large quantity of cotton seed in
sacks has been kept stored at the old Balti
more steam-hip wharf by the Savannah Oil
Company. Frequently during the past two
months, when the clerk came to work in
the morning, he would find a number of
sacks missing, and thtf seed which they bad
contained scattered over the ground.- Not
withstanding efforts were made to find out
who were perpetrating these thefts, no
clue could be obtained until Saturday
night la*t, when a colored man was arrested
on suspicion. This fellow, it is believed, is
one of a gang of thieves that have been sys
tematically robbing the place. In all some
five hundred sacks have been stolen. It is
hoped that this arrest will lead to the cap
ture of several others.
Indisposition of Rev. Mr. Dunlop.
Rev. Mr. Henry Dunlop, who has been for

day, and is now comfortably domici’ed at

Under good medical treatment his condi
tion has materially improved, and his many

though very weak, was doing as well as
could be expected. We trust he may be
speedily restored to his usual health.
A Violent Darkey.
Yesterday afternoon Policeman Kelly ar

ARREST OF A MCBDBBBB.
Tbe Slayer of Elina Harris Captured
10 Brunswick, and to be Brought
11 Savaanab.
A dispatch from Brunswick, which we
pnbllsh elsewhere, conveys the information
of the arrest of John Lyma, alias Lyndy, In
that city yesterday, for the murder of Ellas
Harris In Savannah December last. He was
recognized and Identified by a relative of
Harris, and his name Is John Lanier. The
particulars of this crime are briefly these :
On tbe night of the 2Sth of December last
a difficulty occurred between some negroes
In a bouse near Eastern Hal), In the vicinity
of the Savannah, Florida and Western Rail
way, when John Lanier drew a pistol and
fired upon Harris, Inflicting a mortal wound,
Lanier escaped, and had not been beard
of since until the news of his capture was
received last evening.
An hour or so after the sfcootine of
Harris a colored man named Jackson Davis
appeared at the police barracks, and in
formed Lieutenant Howard, who was on
duty, that be knew of tbe whereabouts of
Lanier, atd could guide an officer to tbe
place. Policemen Crowley and Nutsgaz ;r
were promptly detailed to accompany bltn
and make the arrest. Jackson carried the
policemen to some shanties occupied by
railroad hands, at the junction of tbe
White Bluff road and Savannah, Florida
and Western Railway, and pointed out a
house where he stated he believed Lanier
had taken refuge. The officers at once ap
plied for admission and found some diffi
culty in obtaining a response. Finally tbe
door was opened by a colored man, who
peered out and, perceiving the officers, who
were In uniform, slammed the door to and,
springing from alow window to the ground,
started in a run. ne was called upon to
halt but paid no heed to it and continued
running.when be was fired upon and killed.
On examining the body it was found ttaa*
the wrong man bad been killed the deceased
being recognized as Isaac Hicks and not
John Lanier. At the inquest that was held
on the body a majority of tbe Coroner’s jury
returned a verdict that the deceased had
been killed by the officers In tbe discharge
of their lawful duty, and there tbe matter
rested. The arrest of Lanier, who will be
brought to the city, will lead to an imme
diate Investigation.

THE GEORGIA ROAD.
Colonel Wadley’a and Other law
suits Against the Railroad Com
mission.
The Atlanta loet-Appeal of Saturday says:
“A* there seems to be an Idea prevalent
that the Railroad Commissioners of the
State of Georgia are attempting to take
away the charter of the Georgia Railroad
Company, I would .like to correct It,” said
a railroad man to a Ibst-Appeal reporter to
day. “The Commission has no power to do
such a thing, even If the railroad had failed
in every particular to act in accordance
with its charter. That Is a question for the
Governor to decide. He can order the At
torney General to proceed against the rail
road company, If be sees fit. The Commis
sion has never instituted a suit against any
railroad since Its creation In October, 1879,
but has prevented many being brough’.
There were two suits brought against the
Commissioners In 1880, known as the Jesup
and the Tilley cases, by lawyers, but by the
people astbe Savannah', Florida and Western
Railroads Butts. Both of these were decided
in favor of the defendant Commissioners.
The Tilley case is tbe one In which Justice
Woods of the United States Supreme Court
made his now oft-quoted decision sustain
ing tbe State Railroad Commissioners on
every point. The present suit, which is to
be held In Macon before Judee Lawson,
April 21st, Is brought by William M. Wad
ley, lessee of the Georgia Railroad jointly
with the Georgia Ratlroad Company, against
the Railroad Commissioners and the Attor
ney General, and Is a bill filed askiDg a per
petual Injunction against their enforcing
circulars 20 and 21 on the Georgia Railroad.
As the Attorney-General Is one of the de
fendants as well as the Commissioners, there
seems to be no one who was not personally
interested to defend tbe suit, and Mynatt
& Howell, who were solicitors for the Rail
road Commission in the two other suits
brought against tnem, have been retained
in this case. So it will be seen that no ef •
fori has been made to deprive the Georgia
Rill road of its charter.”
The Louisville Courier Journal contains
this information on the subject of the al
leged forfeiture of the charter of the Geor
gia Railroad, of which mention has already
been made:
“General Alexander returned yesterday
from tbe South. He was asked concerning
the movement to be made In Atlanta to
have tbe charter of the Georgia declared
forfeited because of its lease to the Central.
He said there was absolutely do grounds
whatever for the movement, as the charter
confers In terms as plain as they can be
made the right to lease the property at the
discretion of the directors. Tbis is merely
a counter move, as the Georgia Road has
determined t-o test the validity of tbe action
of the Georgia Ratlroad Commission in clas
sifying freiehts and fixing rates. This state
ment from General Alexander is authorita
tive, as no man in the Bou*h is more thor
oughly familiar with the railroad system In
Georgia, the value of the different roads,
and the rights conferred by their charters.”
Dr. Talmage Last Eveulng.
The announcement that Rev. Dr. Talmage,
the noted Brooklyn divine, was to preach
at the First Presbyterian church last eve
ning, served to attract a tremendous con
gregation to that place of worship. Long
before the hour for the commencement of
the services, every seat was taken, and so
great was the rush that many were unable
even to get within the edifice, and were
forced to retire.
At eight o’clock the services were opened
by the pastor of the church, Rev. Thomas
M. Boyd, who announced the hymD “Jesus
Lover of Mv 8oul.” After this was sung,
Mr. Boyd offered up a short, but impressive
Player, and at the conclusion of the hvmn,
“ All Hail the Power of Jesus’ Name,” Dr.
Talmage began his sermon. His text was
from Revelations xxi., 21, “And the
twelve gates were twelve pearls,”
and, as may readily be gathered,
h’s discourse was of tbe b-auMes and joys
of heaven. He commenced by saying that
heaven was, upon the testimony of Christ
himself, a place of actual existence. Christ
did not tell his diraiples that be was going
to prepare an idea or a theory, but a place
for them, and 1-. was this place which John,
from bis altitude of inspiration, saw and
described.
The distinguished speaker then portrayed,
with all the effect of his ep’endl 1 fancy and
imagination, the appearance of tb Heaven
ly Jerusalem and its mvriad o' :cupants.
The twelve gatfs faerd In even uection—
three at each point of thp cm ; ass. This
indicated that the mercy of God was bound
less, and that it was to be extended freely
to a'l nations of the globe. Sectarianism
would be lost siebt of. All religious de
nominations, and indeed all men who lived
and acted aright from conscientious
love of the Almighty, would be granted
free access, and only those who had no busi
ness in heaven, and who if admit’ed would
convert its glorious peace, beauty and har
mony into pandemonium, would be kept out
by the angel guardian stationed at every
gate. And then he dwelt at some length
upon the wonderfully grand and swelling
adeluia chorus, which, when the eates were
finallv closed, would, under the leadership
of Jesus Christ, arise from the thousands
of millions of redeemed souls in Paradise.
We cannot begin to do the eminent di
vine justice in a short notice of this charac
ter. His sermon was full of Christian
charity and hope, and the attention of his
large audience was absorbed througbou* its
entire delivery. Should be ever favor our
city with another religious discourse at anv
future time, he may be sure of a hearty and
sincere welcome.
Tbe City and Suburban Railway.
By the notice of Mr. E. J. Thomas, Gen
eral Manager of the City and Suburban Rail
way, comprising the lines on Bay, Whitaker,
Abercorn, Barnard, Liberty, Tattnall, Ber
rien, West Broad, Henry, Anderson and
Cuyler streets, and the Ogeechee road, and
also the suburban lines to Isle of Hope and
Montgomery and intermediate stations, it
will be seen that on and after to-day trans
fer tickets will be given on and for the Lib
erty 6treet line where connections are made
with cross lines, namely, those on Whitaker
and Abercorn streets, while transfers will be
made as heretofore at Barnard street. The
cars on all street Hoes will make half hour
trips after 8:30 o’clock p. m. Theae changes
will afford passengers facilities for going to
any part of the city covered by tbe lines
of this company for one fare, and until
10 o’clock p. m., and will, doubtless, largely
Increase the business of the roads. As soon
as certain changes can be made In tbe tracks,
other improvements In this schedule will be
made.
Tbrowu front Hla Horse tu# Pain
fully Injured.
Yesterday afternoon about half-past five
o’clock, as Peter Wakefield, the young son
of Mr. Charles E. Wakefield, was riding
down Abercorn street,, his horse took fright
when near Hull street, and commenced to
rear and plunge. The youth was unable, to
control the animal, and was pitched from
bis back, falling heavily to tbe ground,
striking bis head against the curb. lie was
badly stunned, but no bones were broken,
though he was very severely bruised. Dr.
J. T. McFarland was summoned, and render
ed neceseary attention. He was subsequently
removed to bis father's residence.
A House Robbed iu Broad Day.
At II o’clock Saturday the house of
John Williams, colored, on Perry street
lane, between Floyd and Drayton streets,
was entered by some thieves and all bis
clothes carried away. The thieves were
seen leaving the house by a colored woman,
but they succeeded In getting away before
she could give the alarm. Williams Is em
ployed as a laborer by Mr. John J. Mc-
Donough, and Is a deserving colored man.

A Boat Stolen.
Two colored men from Beaufort arrived
here Saturday lu a boat, which they left
tied In the Exchange dock, and went up

negro thief, who witnessed their departure,
during their absence stole tbe boat and they
were unable to return home Saturday eve
ning. They were on the lookout for the
thief, but failed to get aDy trace of him.

“Tbe Bright Side of Things”— Tbe
Lecture of Dr. Talmage To-Night.
One of the finest and most Intelligent and
cultured audiences ever seen In our Theatre
on Saturday night assembled night before
last to hear the lecture of the famous Brook
lyn preacher. Rev. T. DeWltt Talmage, on
the “Bright Side of Things.” Every seat
on the lower floor was occupied and also
the private boxes and many of the balcony
seats.
Shortly after 8 o’clock President H. F.
Train, of the Bt. Andrew’s Society, under
whose auspices the lecture was delivered,
accompanied by a committee of the society,
Col. Wm. Rogers, Rev. Mr. R. P. Kerr,
Messrs. Thomas Ballantyne, Allan Fullarton
and Preston Cunningham, made their ap
pearance on the stage, escorting the distin
guished lecturer. In a few remarks Mr.Traln
presented Dr. Talmage to the audience,
previously stating that he had consented to
deliver a lecture this evenlDg at the
Theatre on “Big Blunders,” and would also
preach at the First Presbyterian Church.
Dr. Talmage commenced his lecture with
an allusion to the cordial greetings of
'Southern audiences, and how much at home
he felt in addressing them, and at once pro
ceeded to the discussion of the “Bright Side
of Things.” His lecture, while clothed
In eloquent and beautiful lan
guage, was not what might be termed
a scholarly or powerful effort—nothing very
profound. In fact, the famous preacher
stat' and that in the early period of his career
be had considered that it was necessary for a
lecture to be profound—indeed, he bad sev
eral of that kind now—but he had laid them
aside, having subsequently discovered that
bis audience rarely understood what he was
saying, and he hardly knew himself.
His lecture Saturday night was a plain
talk, in an exceedingly dramatic way, of
matters tha’ are familiar to every one —pre
senting a mirror of everyday life, In which
few of the audience failed to detect in the
portraits shown some resemblance to them
selves. It was a succession of good things,
“palpable hits” and plain truths, and
amused and entertained the appreciative
house greatly. He undoubtedly Is a
thorough believer In the philosophy of mak
ing things cheerful In life, and getting all
the good possible out of whatever falls In
our way. He is an effective speaker, and
hla Illustrations were presented In a pleas
ant and most attractive way, frequently
being lnterrup'ed with applause. He
spoke for nearly two hours, and tbe best
evidence of how entertained were the au
dience, was the reluctance they manifested
in leaving their seats.
Th's evening he will deliver his sec
ond and last lecture, under the same ausJJ
pices, at the Theatre. His subject will be
“Big Blunders,” which is pronounced to be
even better than the one delivered last even
ing. Seats may be procured at Bren’s this
morning.

tion will meet Iu Savannah, May the 17th
and lS'b. Arrangements will be made for
reduced railroad fare, and entertainment
will be provided for delegates. Each Sun
day School In the several counties is request
ed to appoint two delegates. A full attend
ance is anticipated.
The following circular has been issued,
which fxplains itself :
BAVANNAU, Ga.. April 11. —The ninth an
nual convention of the Georgia State Sun
day School Association will be held In Sa
vannah on Wednesday and Thursday, the
17th and 18th of May, 1882. It is earnestly
requested of each county to send as mapy
delegates as they can, as we desire a large
attendance, and the Secretaries of the vari
ous county conventions will please notify
R B. Reppard, Esq., at Savannah, and also
J. C. Courtenay, at Atlanta, of the names of
the delegates to attend from each county,
that entertainment may he provided. The
Bavannab. Florida and Western Railway,
and the Bruuswick and Albany Railroad,
have consented on this occasion for dele
gates to pay full fare coming down, and be
returned free upon presentation to tne con
ductors of the proper certificate from the
S cretary of the Convention. We trust their
generous act may be appreciated, and a
large delegation sent from the counties
along the line of these roads. Delegates
will be taken care of In Savannah by apply
ing to me by letter In advance.
We are very anxious to have a large repre
sentation from every county In the State,
and more especially from the counties lying
along the Savannah, Florida and Western
Railway and the Bruuswick and Albany
Railroad, as they have never been well
represented in the State Sunday School Con
vention. Let us show to North Georgia
that South Georgia Is abreast of the age In
this great cau s c. We expect a large dele
gation from North Georgia, and we hope It
will be an occasion of great interest to the
Sunday school workers, and we derire as
Urge a delegation to be present as possible.

SAVANNAH’S GROWTH.
Tbe Largest City Sooth of Baltimore.
The rapid growth of our city, as shown
by the recent Directory census, must be
indeed gratifyine 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 Btreet (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’
dress 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
a’trHctlve as his goods, and a visit to bis
Emporium of Fashion will convince any one
that Mitchell is determined to lead. — Adv.

Get the Genuine Article.
The great popularity of "Wilbor's Compound
of Cod Inver Oil and Lime" has induced gome
unprincipled persons to attempt to palm off
a simple article of their own manufacture;
but any person who is suffering from
Coughs, Colds, or Consumption, should be
oareful where they purchase this article.
It requires no puffing. The results of
its use are its test recommendations; and
the proprietor has ample evidence on file
of its extraordinary success in pulmonary com
plaints. The Phosphate of Lime possesses a
most marvellous healing power, as combined
with the pure Cod Liver Oil by Dr. Wilbor. It
is prescribed by the medical faculty. Pold by
