Is He llie Man?
We understand that information has been
received in the city to the effect that a
man named Patrick Gleason is under arrest
in Mobile, Alabama, for a serious charge,
who answers to the description of the party
Implicated !n the billing of ex-policeman
Milton B. Lingg, In hi* saloon, corner of
South Broad and Price streets, some two
years ago. Gleason escaped from the city,
but subsequently information was
received stating tbai he nad died
in Philadelphia, and had made a
confession to a Catholic priest that he had
committed the crime and was alone guilty,
and that the party who was with him at the
time was innocent. The description of the
man under arrest in Mobile, however, is
said to answer that of Gleason, and al
though it is possible there is some mistake,
additional information on the subject is
looked for with interest.
Shot In the Ann.
On Monday afternoon a difficulty oc
curred between some negroes living near
Monteith, on the Charleston and Savannah
Railway, about ten miles from the ci’y
growing out of a quarrel over the feeding
of some hogs. Eddie Hazel, one of the
negroes, brought h!s gun into the contro
versy, and becoming enraged at Evan
Robinson, the party who had dis
posed of the feed contrary to
agreement, banged away at him.
The gun was loaded with buck
shot, and the entire charge entered the
right arm of Robinson, lacerating it terribly.
Tbe injured man was brought to the city
and taken to the office of Dr. T. B. Chis
holm, who dressed the wound. Hazel had
not been arrested up to last accounts yester
day afternoon.
Enticed Into a Den and Robbed.
A colored man named John Simpson, liv
ing at 1% on the line of the Savan
nah, Florida and Western Railay, came
to the city oa Monday afternoon,
and, meeting some convivial colored
friends, was enticed into a drinking den In
the eastern portion of the city. In this
place he alleges he was dragged and robbed
of some sixteen dollars. On application to
a Magistrate for relief, a warrant was issued,
and William Brown and Tony Shepherd,
both colored, were arrested oa a charge of
being concerned In the robbery, and were
held to answer for trial.

The steamer City of Bridgeton on her last
trip to Jacksonville collided with the
schooner Vanguard in Sapeio Sound, carry
ing away her jibbootn, also the bulwarks
and guard of the steamer. After the acci
dent Uie steamer returned and offered as

On the return trip of the steamer she met the

port. The damage to both vessels is very
slight.
Henry Brigham, Esq.
A letter received in the city yesterday,
dated Paris, the 26:h August, conveys the
gratifying information that our esteemed

Savannah, who had been so seriously ill, as
we have previously mentioned, had im
proved greatly and would start in a few days

Broke fita f Irish.
Yesterday morning a colored man named
Eph. Johnson, whilst sitting in his wagon
near the Market, was tumbled from his seat
by the sudden starting of his horse, and
falling on the stones was seriously iDjared.
He was conveyed to his home in the eastern
portion of the city and Dr. Frank T. Lin
coln was summoned to attend him. On ex
amination it was found that his right thigh
was broken. It appears that Johnson was
asleep on the ws on seat, when some street
Arab threw a missile at his horse, which
caused the animal to start otf suddenly.

There appeared in our laconic column
yesterday a paragraph concerning Julius
Jwckson and Howard Fields, colored, who

Badly Beaten by a Woman.
West Broad street near Henry was yester
day momiDg about twelve o’clock the scene
of considerable excitement, growing out of
an attack by one woman upon another on
the street. It appears the parties liye in the
same vicinity, and that there is ill-feeling
between them in consequence of certain re
marks. At the time stated one of the
women was on her way to the shop where her
husband is employed, with his dinner, when
she was sudaeuiy attacked by the other
woman and terribly beaten, and her clothes
nearly torn off her back. The victim of this
assault is, we are Informed, a respectable
woman, and the assailant will be vigorously
prosecuted.

Tbe Jewish New Tear.
This evening the Jewish New Year 5,643
opens, and it is one of the most solemn re
ligious festivals of the year. The syna
gogues will be opened, and the services
will be of the most Impressive character.
“Rosh Hashanah,” New Year, Is on the
first and second days of the month of Tish
ri. It is also called* Yom Hazlkoron, day
of memorial and feasts of trumpets, as some
say, in memory of the ram entangled by
his horns and offered In sacrifice Instead
of Isaac. It is a holy convocation, on
which no servile work is to be done. Lev.
xxili. 24; Numbers xxix. 1. From the first
to the tenth day are called the penitential
days.
In the service of the festival, prayers of a
three-fold nature are introduced, viz : of
homage, of remembrance and of sounding
tbe cornet. These embody invocations that
mankind may arrive at a true knowledge of
the Creator, His beneficence, His omnis
cience and providence. Every true Israel
ite comprehends the significance of “Rosh
Hashanah,” and approaches Its observance
wittr proper feelings, Inherited from child
hood.
“And the Lord said unto Moses, saying,
speak unto the children of Israel, saying, in
the seventh month,on the first, of the month,
shall ye have a Sabbath, a memorial of
blowing of trumpets, an holy convocation;
ye shall do no servile work.”
Also in Numbers: “And in the seventh
month, oa the first day of the month, shall
ye have a rest, a day of memorial, of sound
ing the cornet, a holy convocation; no ser
vile work shall ye do; a day of blowing the
cornet shall it be unto you, holy unto the
Eernal.”
Tbe River Rooming.
The Savannah river the past day or two
has been on a regular boom, and yesterday
there was appealance of a heavy freshet.
It is reported that Beach Island, on the
Bouth Carolina side of the river, is over
flowed, and the fine corn crop, which had
not been harvested, is entirely ruined. It is
also sad that the damage along the river will
reach fully one hundred thousand dollars.
The river at Aueusta was unusually high
on Monday, concerning whi.h the Evening
says:
“The heavy rains of the past few days
has set the river on such a boom as to sur
prise the oldest luhabitant. A slow rise
commenced yesterday morning, and at 4
o’clock yesterday afternoon the river grew
wild, and it was noted at times the rise
was fully fifteen inches to the hour. At
10 o’clock the mark at the bridge
indicated twenty-six feet, showing,
since yesterday at 4 o’clock, the rise
was fourteen feet In sixteen hours. This is
very rapid for our river, because as it in
creases in height all the low lands have to
be filled, which in some localities makes tbe
river several miles in width. We very much
fear all crops on the river bottoms are abso
lutely ruined, much of the corn having
been blown down and now covered with
water. The crops in the swamps were the
finest ever seen, and it is indeed a pity to
see them now flooded and ruined.”

Tbe netMO Patent Wood Distilling
Company.
Altamont, Fla., September 9.— Editor
Morning New : If the “wood distilling pro
cess,” which I understand was being erected
near your city last spring, Is in operation
and properly under way, you will oblige
a constant reader by giving some history
of its success, and the general points of in
terest to parties contemplating business in
that line. Hope vou will give a “few lines”
on the subject. I have reference to the
“Messau” process. Very respectfully,
G. W. M.
In answer to our correspondent, and for
the benefit of others defiring information
on the subject, we would state that the pro
cess of distilling pine wood is in opera
tion at Reppard’s Mill, Clinch county,
about 175 miles from Savannah. The ex
periments during the past few months have
been successful and satisfactory. The
patent under which the manufacture is car-
ried on is owned by the Messau Patent
Wood Distilling Company,composed of Wm.
Messau, R. B. Reppard and Chas. H. Conner.
Mr. Messau, who Is personally superin
tending the operations, has succeeded in
distilling sixteen gallons per cord and three
gallons alcohol of wood per cord. Pine oil,
brewers’ pitch, ship pitch, charcoal, and
pyroligneous acid can also be distilled. Tne
latter is a powerful preservative of wood, as
is also the pine oil. The estimated cost of
erection for one set of apparatus for distil
ling pine wood is as follows:
Four iron retorts (including freight) $1,260
Boiler 575

Tbe Poet “Barm.”
The Scotch have lately unveiled a statue
of Burns at Dumfries, but iu the same city
they permit his granddaughter, the only
child of the poet’s eldest son, to struggle in
poverty. A recent visitor to their home
found Mrs. Burns and her daughter both
down with chills and fever and in straight
ened circumstances. Fortunately, however,
having a bottle of Keiffer’s Peruvian Cure
with him, he administered it according to
directions and effected a permanent cure.
P t ruvian Cure is for sale by all druggists

WOMAN.
Hope for Suffering Woman—Some
thing New Under the Sun.
By reason of her peculiar relations, and her
peculiar ailments, woman has been compelled
to suffer, not only her own ills, but those aris
ing from the want of knowledge, or of con
sideration on the part of those with whom she
stands connected in the social organization.
The frequent and distressing irregularities pe
culiar to her sex have thus been aggravated to
a degree which no language can express. In
the mansions of the rich and the hovel of the
poor alike, woman has been tbe patient victim
of ills unknown to man, and which none but
she could endure—end without a remedy. But
now the hour of her redemption lias come.
She need not suffer longer, when she can find
relief in Dr. J. Bradfield’s Female tiegulator,
“Woman’s Best Friend.” Prepared by Dr. J.
BRADFIELD, Atlanta, Ga. Price—Trial size,
