Sampson Johnson, in a remote part of Effingham county last Thursday. Th.* shot did not immediately prove fatal, and th*- untortunate man was brought to ti. ity for -.ura-ioal treatment. An exam iti't-on showed that the won fid was mortal n id the victim died. The Coroner was noti n’. . and. impaneUinz a jury, viewed the remains, and the iniuesi was Held ' e-stenlay. At the request of Dr. ftall. Dr. XVilliam Duncan made a ; ,i mortem examination ot the remains and discovered two wounds, one in th** hip and the other, which was the direct cause of death, in the abdomen. The remains were afterwards given in charge of friends, and removed to •**juth urolina for interment. In the course of the inquest th** evidence 01 Dr. Dure.an was taken aDd the declaration* of the dying man. and also the testimony of A man named Jacob blotter. In his last declaration the wounded man related the eireum-tanees of the shooting a* follow*: He was seated in tn-. house of a neighbor near where he i>ve<7. in Etlirnrham county, waiting fur •Johnson, w ith whom he wa to transact **m-- business. While waiting there h- li-:ird .t woman scream. and in ti* act **f getting up from the c-ua:r w ts-:c-T by Johnson, who entereil ft-.mi me yard. While lying on the floor after me -h*-T was fired he asked Johns*jii. w h jm*- in witJi the gun in his hand, why h* had shot him- Johnson replied: --Because vou threatened my ufe." Fields denied having mad*. auy such threats. Johnson then left th* house and the wounded man '3- ; K*.n up i-v tL*- witness Jacob Slot ter and brought to the city. The testimony ■f **i,,tter corroborated the dying tuan’s declaration. Th* inquest was lasi night adjourned •.ntil Friday, when other witnesses from the B<-ene of th*- sh*oting will be sworn. Th*- murdered mau himself bore a hard name, and is said to have shot and killed a negro named Moses Balding "it Groton Island. nearOM Bri.lge. in south Carolina, some years ago.

The Ucmulgee Ilose Company, of Macon, is the only company from abroad yet invited, but it is hojiod that the c-'mpanies of the department besides the Wavers will extend invitations and that the day will lie more proudly ob. served than ever.

The affair, which was a continuation of the regular picnic on May day,was one of the most enjoyable of the season. The trains which left the citt during the afternoon carried out large numbers of the gallant corps and their guests, and at evening the last train added many more '.*• those who were already present. The grounds at Montgomery won* illuminated with Chinese lanterns and headlights, and presented a very at tractive scene. The evening was delight ful. and th<- cool breezes added to the eu iovtnent of the occasion. The dancing .avilion’w a. filled, and the guests were scattered about the tr round*, enjoying the music and the beautiful moonlight scene. The tables were arranged under the oaks and were graced with th*- most tempting repast. lLe afternoon and evening were spent in various amusements, and the participants reluctantly returned at a late hour, having enjoved one of the most delightfc! excursions in the history of the ••orps. ’flu* Guct- of tlie Waver*.

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: }, - r . * t.O-r,,t. Ihttt. 1-7*’. a* 20th V 3*l 1-rr 94 22<i 4S 2*l J-7- lx* 27* t ll 7*. 1 tit h <• in tli if 9th IsSm . *<!• 31-r % 16th ji-1 *.*; lull i lsth lg-2 Pi 10th se 17th ]-*<> 94 15th 3t> 22*1 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.” United States Circuit Court. Hon. H. K. Mrs ay. Judge, presiding.

XVbst tbs Railroads are Dotug foi the 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: J- >A .. * i P • -*'••-. >•... ll .*r* t'G,s ; 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 agent of tire Savannah. Florida and West ern Railway, at above places, and greatly oblige. yours truly. I). H. Elliott, General Agent F. D. L. 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 are Ready for the Oglethorpe- with 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. Captain Florida Herald B. 8,. C. Tlic Colored National Guard Union—The .Savannah Colored Soldiery. Arrangements are being made at At lanta for the coming meeting of the Col ored National Guard Union on the 4th of next month. The occasion, it is exjieeted, will Ik- a memorable one for the colored soldiery of the South. Among the com panies that have already entered for the contest are the Columbus Guards, of Co lumbus; the star Guards, ol Rome; three companies of the battalion of this city, and the Chatham and Forest City Light Infantry. Marietta aud Atlanta will also bo represented. The only difficulty that at ji res-nt confronts the Savannah com panies i the transportation, and if re duced rates can lie secured there will Is? a full detachment. TUg review and con test will take place on Tuesday, and on Tuesday night the companies will leave for Macon, where they will be received by the colored soldiery 1 of that city, and will spend Wednesday at the Park, returning to Atlanta on Thursday morning, when the convention will re-assemble, and at night will bo tendered a banquet by the citizens In the City Hall. It is expected there will Is? a large attendance, and from the present outlook it is thought Ohio. Missouri and Tennessee will have the largest delegations present. Aii Ocean Yacht Kace. The long-talked-of ocean sailing race between the Frances Elizabeth and the Peerless will take place to-morrow. The Frances Elizabeth is ono of the crack pilot boats of this jiort, built by Pregnall Brothers, and the Peerless is a splendid Boston yacht belonging to Mr, Frank Kressel, Jr., of this city. The stakes are i.'ssi a side. The Frances Elizalieth is twenty-nine tons burthen and will be sailed by Capt, James J, Igoe, Capt. Gardner sailing in her as judge for the Peerless.

With tolerably fair winds the race should be completed by Thursday afternoon. A close and exciting race is expected, as both yachts are splendidly built and are notoriously fast sailers. —Charleston Xior<, and Courier. Diamond Dves always do more than they claim to do.

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.” Dramatic Notes.
