Damage Along the River.
The Augusta News of Tuesday says: “The
rise in the Savannah river reached the height
of twenty-nine and a half feet, and was at a
stand at twelve o’clock tc-day. It Is thought
this will be the highest point reached. This
is sufficient to iuin all the crops on the
low lands along the river, and the swamps
further In the interior. A prominent river
planter told us yesterday the loss in corn
alone will be immense; be estimates It at
two hundred thousand bushels between Au
gusta and Silver BluiT, a distance of thirty
miles. This Is a terrible calamity to Augus
ta as well as the river planters, and coming
upon teat year’s drought is doubly so.”
The Angusta Chronicle awl Constitutional
ist, speaking of the freshet, says: “The
great damage Is to swamp lands below the
city, where the finest corn fields have been
flourishing that farmers have seen for years.
Parties from below the city report that In
many places the water has risen above the
tops of the stalks—not even a tassel being
visible above the rolling waste. The places
of Messrs. Hickman, RobinsoD, Eve, Camp
bell, McCoy and Rhodes, the Clacton and
Twiggs places, the Little and Steadman
tracts, the Boyd, Urquhart and Griner fields,
the Hollywood farm, with fields of Messrs.
Myers, Hack and Hatfield, the Collins
ract and Mr. Will*sms Chavous’ place are
reported all more or less under water.
“The damage to the ears of corn is that
water, whenever it touches them, is almost
certain to sour them, rendering them unfit
for use and dangerous to feed to any stock
but hogs. Should the floods remain for two
or three days the corn will swell and rot,
and be totally lost.
“The damage to hay and pea crops-has
also been very great. The river is falling
slowly and stubbornly, and It may be several
si ays before many of these fine fields are ex
posed to the sunlight again.”

and Others.
Dr. J. T. McFarland, Health Officer, has
Issued an order that from and after the 13th
Inst, no letter received by any party or par
ties in this city from any vessel In quaran
ine at this port will be considered worthy
of notice unless such communication is sent
under cover of envelope by the Quarantine
Officer and directed to the Health Officer,
who will have the same delivered. Each
-,nd every party presenting letters from
vessels that are undergoing quarantine, not
laving been received In accordance with
this order,will be required to give the name
of the carrier, and falling to do so will be
proceeded against in accordance with the
aw for aiding or abetting a violation of
the quarantine regulations. This Is an Im
portant matter, and those concerned should
give it heed.
Oil (or imtlcdsevllle.
Louisa Brown, colored, was yesterday ad
judged a lunatic by tbe Ordinary of this
county. This lunatic, with three or four
others, left last night for the asylum at Mil
ledgeyille, Georgia, in charge of an officer
appointed by the County Commissioners.
The cases of lunacy from this county are at
least 80 per cent, among the colored people.
The Dumber of lunatics for the year 1882 is
considerably less than In 1581, the number
admitted into the asylum from this county
being about thirty in 1881 and twenty in
1582.
In a large number of cases, owing to the
crowded condition of the State Lunatic Asy
lum, these unfortunate peop’e have been
kept In jail for many months—some as long
as eighteen months —and as there are no
j iciliUes in our jail for such cases, It works
hard upon those who are thus compelled to
be incarcerated.

A vessel nesrly two score years old is a

have been the subject of more comment
than the fact that she is thirty-seven years
old. The vessel is the Altamaba, formerly
the English schooner Termagant. She put
Into Darien, Georgia, last year, and was
sold, her present master, Capt. Wm.
Meissner, of Savannah, Georgia, becoming
the purchaser. Many changes were made
in the vessel, and in doing tbe work the
hardness of the timbers caused universal

RIVAL RICHMONDS.
ATKINS TO I'IUHT JOHNSON.
First District Republlcans-A Row
In tbe Household Followed by a
Bolt—Two Candidates In the Field
- Both Claiming to be the Rightful
Choice of tbe Party—Stormy Scenes.
The Republican Convention for the First
Congressional district of Georgia met at
Empire Hall, corner of East Broad and
Harris streets, yesterday morning at eleven
o’clock for the purpose of nominating a
candidate to Congress for the Republican
party. There were present some forty del
egates, about seven or eight of whom were
whites, the remainder colored and black.
The basis of representation was two votes
from each county of the nineteen, with tbe
exception of Chatham and Burke, which
have six each, making in all forty-six votes.
As stated In our issue yesterday, the indi
cations pointed to the nomination of Col.
James Atkins, although tbe Chatham
delegation, with some few from the out
side counties, favored Mr. Tomlinson F.
Johnson, Collector of the Pott. There had
evidently been a still hunt, as the Atkins
party were largely In the majority, and
scored their first victory In electing Wim
berly Chairman.
The convention was called to order by
John H. Deveaux, Chairman of the Execu
tive Committee; and William Cantwell
moved that it be organized by the election
of Deveaux as temporary Chairman.
Jesse Wimberly, of Burke, was put In
nomination also by L. M. Pleasants. This
opened the 6klrmlsh pretty lively, and R.
W. White sailed into the record of Wira
berly during the campaign of 1872, when he
ran as Independent candidate against J. E.
Bryant the Republican nominee,and asserted
that he had sold out to the Democratic party.
This was followed by several delegates
springing to their feet and corroborating or
denying the assertion, or calling out that
the Issue was passed.
Tbe skirmish continued for some min
utes, and was exceedingly lively, but re
sulted In a victory for the side led by L.
M. Pleasants. -
There was some very vigorous talk about
Wimberly’s past record from various dele
gates, and they were not their de
nunciation about his “selling out the Re
publican party in this district.”
Notwithstanding the free expression of
opinion upon the nomination of Wimberly
for temporary Chairman, he was elected
and assumed the position. He returned his
acknowledgment to his friends, and made
some reference to the statements concern
ing his past course, asserting that he had
run against John E. Bryant in the
Interests of the Republican party.
That matter was now of the past, and he
would like to know how man}- friends
Bryant had In this convention to-day. He
said his Republicanism was unquestioned,
and he came from a county that always
gave a Republican majority. After these
remarks Chairman Wimberly took his seat
amid some applause. S. G. Scroggins, a
black man of Scrlven county, was elected
Secretary.
The Chair announced the convention
ready for business.
L. M. Pleasants moved that a committee
of five be appointed on credentials.
J. B. Reynolds offered a substitute that
one from each county be appointed as a
committee, which was voted down.
Some little controversy of an animated
character occurred at this point between
R. W. White and L. M. Pleasants, the pur
port of which, owing to the confusion, was
not distinctly heard.
The original motion was then put and
adopted.
A motion made to invite representatives of
the press to seats at the table was carried.
The Chair appointed on credentials L M.
Pleasants, J. A. Sykes, J. B. Reynolds,
Wm. Y. Savage and John Mack, who there
upon retired to an ante room for examina
tion of papers.
During their absence of about an hour'
the convention was at recess, and the dele
gates collected in groups in and about the
building discussing the situation and ex
plaining their views with the greatest
vehemence.
Shortly before one o’clock the Committee
on Credentials reappeared and the conven
tion was called to order.
J. A. Sykes, as Secretary of the commit
tee, read a report of the following delegates
as entitled to admission:
Appling—J. C. Simmons, W. Y. Savage.
Bryan—E. C. Rhodes, Josiah Clark.
Bulloch—J. H. Wimberly.
Burke—Jesse Wimberly, Jno. Mack, Jas.
Lewis, F. C. Sapp, Benj. Reynolds, Edward
Harper.

C. L. Delamotta, 8. B, Morse, J. H. De
veaux, J. B. Reynolds.
Clluch —L. M. Pleasants, J. A. Sykes.
Charlton —Geo. Abbott.
Camden —A. Braxton.
Emanuel —Ned Wigg and David Brlnston.
Effingham—Philip Pierce and Peter
McKew.
Echols —Omar Hall.
Glynn—J. H. Powell and A. Braxton.
Mclntosh—June Gordon and T. G. Camp
bell.
Liberty—J. R. Dflegal and A. LeConnte.
Pkrt-e—Lisbon Lane and H. C. Johnson.
Scrlven—D. D. Scroggins and Thos.
Prescott.
Tattnall—L W. West and J. A. Sykes.
Ware —E. R Belcher and R. A. Davison.
Wayne—S. H. Bryant and L. M. Fleasants.
J. H. Deveaux moved that it be taken up
and each county be acted upon separately.
This gave rise to some confusion, when,
after considerable difficulty, J. B. Reynolds
made himself heard above the uproar, and
said he had a minority report to submit,
which he prefaced with some earnest re
marks expressive of his disapprobation of
the action of the committee, and stating
that his objection was confined to the Bui
loch and Mclntosh delegations. Tunis
G. Campbell, who claimed to be a
delegate from Mclntosh county, and
whose admission was reported upon favora
bly by the majority of the committee, was
not a delegate. He then resd a certified
statement from the Chairman and Secretary
of the Republican primary meeting of Mc-
Intosh, that June Gordon had In person
been elected a delegate, that there was no
proxy, and that Gordon was authorizad to
cast both votes for the county, and that
Campbell had no right to be considered a
delegate.
E R. Belcher here arose to a point of or
der, contending that this discussion of the
credentials was irregular.
J. H. Deyeaux took the floor to make a
few remarks on the subject, when several of
the colored delegates jumped up to make
“points of order.” Deveaux attempted to
proceed, but was frequently Interrupted by
Dr. West, a colored delegate, whereupon he
stopped and said:
“Mr. Chairman, I move that Dr. West be
allowed to speak two hours, and say all
that be has got to rav, and then hold his
peace.” [Shouts and confusion.]
A number of persons were on tneir feet at
this time, gesticulating and shouting, “Mr.
Chairman !” and the Chairman was indus
triously engaged In rapping with a heavy
stick on the table in the most vigorous man
ner, calling, “Gentlemen, order!”
A colored delegate, with much persist
ence, managed to make himself heard, and
shouted, ‘‘Mr. Chairman, I rise to a point of
order; there is four men on their feet
now.”
Before this point of order could be recog
nized, J. H. Deveaux, who had remained
standing during the confusion, took advan
tage of the temporary lull, acd said he was
here in the interest of fair play and harmo
ny, and If there was any one who desired
to meet him on that ground be would meet
him half way, but not more. If, however,
it was tbe intention of tbe alleged majority
to commence their proceedings bv attempts
at bulldozing, he would say that they would
find a minority that was powerful enough
to frown down the actions of any packed
convention. Another uproar followed this,
and L. M. Pleasants arose to reply, when
some delegate shouted, “We’ll mike ’em
sick.”
J. H. Deveaux again gofr the floor, and
excoriated the young delegates who were
Interrupting him, and after expressing the
determination of the minority to submit
to no put up job, said that if the convention
had the welfare of the colored race at heart
and desired the success of the Republican
party, they should put forth a candidate
who had the qualifications neeeseary to
make the race.
Several points were made that these
remarks were out of order, and the Chair so
ruled, and announced that the consideration
of the minority report was in order.
J. B. Reynolds resumed the reading of
this report, and 6tated that the only cre
dential that Tunis G. Campbell had as a
delegate for Mclntosh was a letter from one
8. W. Russell appointing him proxy,
whereas the credentials of June Gordon
were correct.
In regard to Bulloch county, he stated
that it appeared that Wm. Cantwell and R
W. White were the delegates, and yet a
majority of the committee have reported In
favor or J. Wimberly. There was something
wroDg about this.
L. M. Pleasants, as the Chairman, arose
to make a talk.
Wm. Cantwell claimed to speak on a
question of privilege, as one of the del -
gates from Bulloch, but Ihe contusion was
too great to bear him.
Delegate Pleasants gave some explanation
of the report of the committee, wheff delege. e
Sykes called out,“Give it to ihem.Captair
which was greeted with shouts ot “Y s;
make ’em sick.”
Delegate Deveaux, turning upon the con
vention, said these youngffiedgltngs should
know cnee and for all that this minority can’t
be made sick by anything that they conld
say, but some of them might feel sick be
fore be got through with them. He had
excused the previous interruption while he
was speaking, attributing the unseemly
conduct to the youth and ignorance of the
disturbers. They should remember that old
stagers were not to be gagged off by any
such proceedings.
Another scene of confusion here ensued,
and a dozen delegates were trying to make
themselves heard, but what they wanted to
say it would be difficult to state.
Delegate Belcher quieted the tumult, as it
were, by moving to lay the minority report
on the table, which had five or six seconds
from different parts of the room.
The motion was put and declared carried.
Delegate Deveaux made the point that
the laying of the minority report on the ta
ble carried the majority report with it, and
hence there was nothing before the conven
tion, and he would therefore offer a resolu
tion.
Delegate Belcher contended that the
point was not good, that the minority re
port was separate and not in the shape of
an amendment, and hence the question re
curred on the adoption of the majority re
port. He asserted that the delegate had
no right to assume what the decision would
be, and he should wait until the Chair de
cides.
Delegate Deveaux replied that he was
perfectly willing to leave the matter to the
Intelligence of the Chair. The point was
too plain to need discussion.
Delegate Belcher—Well, leave it to the
Intelligence of the Chair, and don’t state
what the decision will be before you hear It.
The Chair decided that the motion to lay
the minority report on the table did not
carry with It the majority report, and pro
ceeded to explain his reasons, when Dele
gate Deveaux said it was not necessary to
explain—that he bowed In submission to
the decision of the Chair, but thought It an
error of judgment.
He then proceeded at some length here to
discuss the report to show why it should
not be adopted, or even received respect
fully, and was unsparing in his remarks
upon what be claimed was an attempt of a
certain clique to capture the con
vention. He was frequently interrupted
in the most excited way, and the
liveliest uproar prevailed, the galley,
evidently in sympathy with the speaker,
joining in tbe uproar. During his talk L.
M. Pleasants jumped up to correct a remark
which he thought reflected upon him, and
the Chairman, despite vigorous and Inces
sant thumping on the table, was unable to
control the convention. Both Deveaux
and Pleasants became greatly excited, and
the passage of words was vigorous if not
complimentary, but it was utterly
Impossible, as both were talking at the
same time and gesticulating, to understand
the merits of the case. Delegates left their
seats, a number rushed around the dispu
tants, there was waving of hats and shout
ing, and the Chairman kept pounding on
the table and calling order, and a delegate
shouted for the appointment of a “Surgeon
at-arms.” The confusion lasted over five
minutes, and, in consequence of the high
feeling, indicated at one time personal
collisions and serious results, but fortu
nately these were averted and the excite
ment subsided.
Delegate Deveaux then moved that the
report be recommitted, and that three other
members, bona fide representatives from
counties, be added.'
There was considerable dispute over this,
and It was voted down with great vigor.
After some more remarks by different
delegates, the motion was called on the
previous question, when followed another
wrangle. The motion to adopt th* majority
report of the Committee onCredeutials was
finally got before the meeting, and was de
clared carried.
Deveaux desired to have his protest en
tered against this proceeding, asserting that
there were parties holding proxies from
three different counties who had no right to
sit as delegates. He then stated that the
Chatham delegation would withdraw, and
throw upon them the responsibility of what
would follow to the Republican party from
their action.
Deveaux then withdrew from the conven
tion followed by David Forter, Peter Hous
ton, 8. B. Morse, J. B. Reynolds, George
Aboott and Josiah Clark, regular delegates,
and R. W. White and Wm. Cantwell, the
two whose admission as delegates from
Bulloch the majority had reported against.
The temporary officers were then, upon
motion, made permanent.
The convention, after a few minutes de
lay, caused by the vote, proceeded with
business.
Colonel James Atkins was presented by
L. M. Pleasants aa candidate for Con
gress, and was unanimously nominated,
although there was some little talk
previous to the result. A committee were
appointed to notify Col. Atkins of his
nomination and request his acceptance.
Anew Congressional Committee was ap
pointed, of which L. M. Pleasants was made
Chairman and J. A. Bykes Secretary.
The convention then adjourned. They
claimed to have had thirty-nine botta fide
delegates out of the forty-six, and that their
candidate Is the nominee of the Republican
party of the district, and will stand.
TUB BOLTERS
proceeded to Beach Institute, where they
organized with J. H. Deveaux as Chairman.
Several delegates from other counties joined
them ; and they claimed to have had twenty
four bona fide delegates. After organizing,
expression of opinion was Indulged in con
cerning the alleged attempt at gagging, and
this body then proceeded to business.
Mr. T. F. Johnson was nominated as a
candidate far Congress by acclamation, and
a committee appointed to notify him, and
request his acceptance.
TUB NATIONAL COMMITTEE TO DECIDE,
The National Executive Committee will
be notified of the spilt, and the claim?of
the two parties will be submitted for their
arbitrament. One of the candidates will
have to come down. It will depend upon
the decision of this committee whether it
be Colonel Atkins or Mr. Johnson.

Bonnie Else, the Belle of

MAY have been a beauty, but it is well
known now that she could neither throw
a stone nor write an advertisement, and it’s no
wonder she couldn’t. Here in her old camping
ground the stones weigh 19 tons apiece and the
air is so pure that it’s impossible to stretch the
t-uth or practice any of those slight (?) dvia
tions which advertisers sometimes (?) indulge
in I myself, individually, J. A. Bates, sojourner
m this goodly land (Mohawk Valley, N Y.),
searcher after health, rest and strength, have
become temporarily infected with truthfulness,
and And it awfully hard to prepare an “ad.”
that will hold its own with my Savannah com
peers. But perhaps the novelty of a truthful
advertisement may prove a card, and so here
goes for a square and
HOI\EBT STATEMENT.
A little boy wanted a drum. His mother,
wishing to give him an impressive lesson, sug
gested that if he should pray for it he might
receive one. So at night, when ready for bed,
he knelt down and prayed:
Now I lav me down to sleep,.
(I want a drum.)
I pray the Lord my soul to keep,
(I want a drum.)
If I should die before I wake,
(1 want a drum.)
I pray the Lord my soul to take.
(I want a drum.)
His father, who had been let into the secret,
had meanwhile quietly placed a drum on the
bed. As the youngster rose, and his eyes fell
on the drum, he exclaimed in an emphatic
manner, that banished all serious thoughts
from the minds of his listeners: ‘‘Where the
devil did that drum come from?” ‘‘From Lud
den & Bates' Southern Music House,” respond
ed the fond parent, and then went on to tell the
yout of all the Drums, Banjos. Accordeons,
Tamborines. Fiddles, Organinas, Cornets, Har
monicas. Fifes, Flutes, and thousands of other
noise producers that grow in their orchard. He
might have told of the Pianos, Organs, Sheet
Music, Music Books, that this big house sell,
but he did not, and so I will not mention them.
The moral of this tender little story is that
