THE COLD SPELL.
The Thermometer Lower Thau Ever
Known In Savannah as Late * the
Tweuty-Se*coul oT May.
The weather yesterday was the coldest
ever known in savannah at this season of
tb*- year. A winterish wind prevailed
from tbe Northwest, and tow arris evening
overcoats and otber warm covering
were in demand. The unseason
able weathc-r caused the streets
to be verv quiet, tbe ladies not caring to
risk the cold wind, postponed their
-boppinz to a fairer day. Even tbe music
at Batterv Park failed to draw a crowd,
not over a couple of csr loads of people
being in attendance, and those few not
remaining very ioug. The —old inhabi
tant" savs there was a similar season in
I<'7. in which year *now fell in this city
on the 2t*th of April.
There was no imagination about the
cold, and the few who put their faith iu
Wiggins aud Vennor wondered what had
become of their infallible prophets. The
local weather >*ureau attributes the
chill to the storm that swept
a.-ross tbe Northwest <>n Monday.
Last night at th? Signal Office, at
10:44 o’clock, the thermometer registered
its mitiitnum temperature for the month
thus far. and at the present vvritiug. the
re gistration is still lower. The highest
temperature was on last week. Tuursday,
tie-loth, and was recorded at 94 degrees.
The following statement from the re
*-*nls of the -igual Officer show the high
est and lowest registration for the month
**f Mav and the dates since 1 *76:

The lowest point given here is 49 de
grees on the 2*l in 1*77, the next lowest
being 50 degrees on the Jd and 17th in 187tf
and 1992, tbe average lowest temperature
for the whole period since I*7l* being a
little less than 54 degrees. The late hours
last uizht were remarkably cool and tires
were indispensable to comfort. There has
umurallv been some appreheusion as to
tbe effect of the cold on vegetation, iu
other parts of the State .the sam- cold
sj>ell is reyjrte*! and at Augusta last night
the thermometer registered 52 degrees.
At Atlanta yesterday morning it was 51
degrees, tue" lowest it has been ou that
date since 1978. The Commissioner of
Agriculture, Heuderson, stated iu refer
ence to the sflell that: -It will be very
ba*l on cotton in this section. The plant
is just now in that tender stage which
w ill lav it liable t<* great damage from
this chill. It will be in clanger of be
fouling lousy aud having the ’sore shine
Wheat will lie considerably helped. The
cold will keep off the rust. It is always
au i*inen of good wheat when such snaps
as this come in the spring.”
As to tb<- effect of the cold on the fruit
, crop opinions differ, at least, in the de
_rrcv of damage predicted. In the best
yaeh regions of the btate the fruit is so
far matured that it is thought able to
stand the chill, though the late peaches
may suffer considerably. Other fruits are
more liable to damage. Altogether yester
day was a dav so uuusual tiiat its record
w ill pass into history, w hile its yet un
! developed effects on the crops will te
watched with interest and anxiety.
The Cadets’ Trip to Nashville.
The Constitution, alluding to the pass
age of the Uadets through Atlanta on
Sunday, says: "Thecorps w-ere provided
by the Central Road with a special car,
which brought them |to Atlanta. And
here they abandoned that car and com
pleted their journey in a car provided by
the Western and Atlantic Road. After
the train came to a halt in the ear shed
the Cadets disembarked, and entering
their special ear on the Western and At
latie track deposited their guns and bag
gage. Then they came forth again and
by fours marched into the gentlemen's
waiting room at the car shed, where a
magnificent lunch was awaiting them.
The Cadets were hungry, and did "full
justice to the sandwiches, coffee and
punches which were before them. Lieu
tenant sparks in a nest two minutes
speech welcomed the Cadets to Atlanta,
and expressed the hope, as he said, of his
company, that they might win the first
prize. To this welcome Captain Branch
of the Cadets responded. The speeches
of the two officers were followed by toasts
and impromptu talks and in this way
their brief stay in Atlanta was made a
measure to the two companies. Of the
Cadets there wi re twenty-nine men, rank
and file. They were accompanied by
Lieu tenant Colonel I’eter Reilly of the Fir-t
Regiment of Georgia Volunteers, aud in,
th> ir neat gray uniform they preseut
cd a handsome front, lhe company has
taken several prizes since its organization,
and bears the reputation of being the best
drilled company in the First Regiment of
Georgia. The mem tiers are all young,
lino lookiug men. and have a striking
military bearing. They were armed with
tiie improved Springfield, and have a
thorough knowledge of military tactics.
The company will enter the contest with
a tine record, and il they secure the prize,
will give Georgia militia a national
reputation. With the Cadets Messrs. E.
L lligdou. W. H, Franklin and W, T.
Kuhn, of the Gate City Guard, went to
Nashville.”

Making Money.
Is there a secret for making money?
We answer no, there is not. The way to
do it is to live within your income and lay

what it is, if only onedollaror five dollars

Fruit Growers^
The people of south and Southeast Geor
gia seem to be thoroughly interested in
the subject of w atermelons. It is claimed
more melons will bo raised this season
than ever before. Acres upon acres have
been planted, and the following circular
from the aeent of the Dispatch Line
shows that ample facilities are being
made to move them:

ATe tl*ire t * ascertaiu the acreage
planted and yield, as near as practicable,
of watermelons, and number of car loads
to be shipped freon the line of the Savan
nah. Florida and Western Railway. Also
the places most convenient for loading
and number of cars to be shipped from
each, with the view of providing as
promptly as possible the ears and. facili
ties for loading and shipping.
For fhis purpose 1 would be glad to
meet and confer with all interested at
t>est poiuts or tributary thereto. It #ot
convenient to be there in person, please
communicate the desired iuloruiation in
wriling or otherwise. through the station

The railroads are thus adopting mea
-ure> to move the crop, and it is possible
that special schedules will be arranged.
Such arrangements have already been
made by the Western and Atlantic Rail
road iu the section iu which melon cul
ture reaches such perfection, and it is
probable that ample facilities in the
matter of transportation will be afforded
in South and Southeast Georgia.
The Jacksonville Bae Balli-tx—They

Open Arms.
Jacksonville. May 21.—Editor Morn
ing -Y tirs: In the ■'iiiwhiy Telegram, May
2*itli. we are pained to see the deliberate
falsehood that appeared in the Tinies-
Cnion of the tsth clipped, and also the
introductory. We know too well the
1 just spirit of the News to think that it
would willingly allow to be published an
; absolutely false and nmearranted attack
on our name, and then not allow us to
: submit to the Savannah public onr justi
fication.
Mr. Editor, on ottr return from savan
nah. vanquished though we were, we
were jubilant over the treatment that we
had received from tbe generous, warm
i hearted and impulsive young men that
Savannah may well be proud of. But we
were not discouraged. We went to work
with vigor to perfect our organization
and prepare ourselves to give the Uglc
tborpes. and we also hope the Dixies, as
generous a welcome as they gave us.
This we could not do under our then ex
; isting organization. This we sought to
' perfect, and our first move was to shake
oil'front us even any dust that might have
j clung to us from our former contact with
I the 1 ernes- Union, and to place ourselves
w here we could command the respect of
I every one. We unanimously decided that
the llest way to do this was to ojienlv
assume tbe name of the Florida Herald.
This w e have done, and from the great
: Igjont that we have received, we are* glad
to say our move was one that we may he
proud of. The entire community applauds
1 our action aud approv es our course. We
have published our full justification. It
’ is meanly false to state that there is no
j occasion for the Oglethorpes to come to
Jacksonville. We arc ready to meet them
I with grateful hospitality, and ready to
meet them in friendly contest in the field,
i The Florida Herald Club is always ready
to meet amateur clubs like itself every
, where. We are prosi*erous, and united
and more iiopuliir than j:ver before in our
history. We can afl'ord to ignore the
! Times-Union, and the Jacksonville public
are laughing itt the absurd and babyish
suite of that paper. There is nothing in
the history of journalism more pitiably
ridiculous"than the small spite of ottr
: morning paper in its wanton insult to
this ImkTt of bo vs. Very respectfully,
Geo. V. Bcrbkidge.

Tuesday night the companies will leave for
Macon, where they will be received by
the colored soldiery 1 of that city, and will

SAVANNAH AND NEW ORLEANS.
Th* Two Southern Seaport* Linked try
Rail.
The Thomasville 1 imt* rejoices in the
fact that ou last Sunday week the
direct connection between Savannah
and New Orleans was perfected.
This has been done by the com
pletion of a gap between the Savan
nah. Florida aud Western, or Mr. Plant’s
9ystem of roads, and the Gulf branches of
the Louisville aud Nashville Railroad.
The T>m*s. after natural exultation over
the local advantage of such connections,
says:
“Tnis new route ojteus up wonderful
possibilities for Southern Georgia and
Western Florida.-' The great artery of
trade aud travel whicn now passes
through them will send anew thrill of
progress and prosperity throughout the
line and the adjacent country. We are
now on the creat highway between the
city of New Orleans and the nearest At
lantic port. Savannah, on the great
Southern route between New York
and Francisco; this last be
ing the shortest line between the
two oceans and lying below the snow bed.
This last fact, if nothing else, will give to
the line the bulk of travel for the entire
winter months. During that time more
Northern roads are subject to be block
aded by snow drifts on the plains. On
this favorable Southern route no sueh
dangers and delays will be encountered.
It is easy thus to see that this must and
will be the favorite route —in winter —for
the great surging tide of travel which ebbs
and flows from ocean to ocean.”
