THE FATAL POISON.
Suicide of a Young South Carolinian-
Pecuniary Trouble* Supposed to be the
Cau*e of the Rash Act.
The residents ol the vicinity of the cor
ner of Broughton and Drayton streets
were startled yesterday forenoon by the
announcement that a young man named
John 11. Fell, formerly of Mount Pleasant,
near Charleston, S. C., had died suddenly
at Mrs. Sawyer's boarding house Horn
the effects of a dose of ten srrains of
morphine. The -opposition, at nrst, was
that tbe deceased had taken the drug by
uiitake. but the investigation held later
showed that death was premeditated, and
Coroner -neftall was immediately sum
moned to hold an inquest.
Among the witnesses who testified was
Mr. C. s' Godwin, who stated that he saw
Sir! Fell the night previous, and that the
voung man seemed to lie greatly depress
ed. Mr. Godwin also testified that he
called on Mr. Fell about 8:30 o’clock
yesterday morning, in compliance
vv ith his * request. made to
him on Tuesday night, and that he found
the voung man in an insensible and
dying condition. Efforts were made
to resuscitate him. but without
avail. It also appeared that the
deceased was recently employed
lorn ariling department of the sa
vannah. Florida and Western Railway,
a _ 1 reputation as an em
ploye. Tbe deceased was about 39 years
~f u'ee and some time ago married a very
estimable lady in the Palmetto state, who
i- still living in South Carolina.
He was not known to lie of
a dissipated habit. He_ vyas well
educated and very sensitive in disposition,
and as he was not as prosperous pe
cuniarily a- he wished to lie, it is pre
-umed that he became depressed on ac
count of that fact, and that in a lit of des
pondency be committed tbe fatal deed.
l*jw>n the conclusion of the testimony
th*- jurv retired, amt In their verdict
attributed death to the effects of an over
dose of morphine administered by him
self. The deceased lias a mother, to whom
the remains were forwarded. *t Mount

Tl County Poll Tux.
The Tax Collector’s office at the court
house is now ojs-n for the payment of poll

with politics.' and it is stated for the
-IHH-ial benefit of those who are appre
hensive ot lieing drawn as jurors in the

They Won't Let Me Alone.
It doesMeem pretty rough that when a
man wants to be quiet and jog along in
the “even tenor of his way” folks won't
let him do it. I moved some time ago,
got a big store and a big trade, thought all
l had to do was to attend to the wants of
customers and add to my business and
reputation. Now they are going to pull
down the building near me and till up the
sidewalk with bricks and plastering and
rubbish aud the air with dust. The
trouble begins next month. In the inter
val I propose “to make hay" while things
are in rei*ose, anil to do it have pulled the
marks off everything in the house, and
have arranged prices that are almost
painfully low—lower than ever known in
Savannah for tailor-made goods aud fits,
suits that were cheap at $3" are now $25;
suits torinerlv $25 now S2O: a Suit that
would cost ’s2o anywhere else can be
bad for sl6: sls Suits for sl2: and the best

and not brag. Cotne and see me whether

Colorless and Cold.
A young girl deeply regretted that she
Yvas so colorless and cold. Her face was
too white, and her hands and feet felt as
though the blood did not circulate. After
one bottle ol Hop Bitters had been taken
she was the rosiest and healthiest girl in
the town, with a Y - iY*acity and cheerful
ness ot mind gratifying to her friends.
Athens, G a., Nov. 6,1553. —1 am averse
on general principles to saying anything
commendatory of proprietary articles,
but there are a few on the market that
force those of the profession who como
in contact with the diseased and suffer
ing to acknowledge their superiority.
Among those I find Swift's Specific to
rank high. One poor unfortunate re
quests me to tell you that he had long
been a sufferer with terrible blood taint,
and securing little if any relief from other
treatment, finally resorted to Swift's Spe
cific. He claims now that it has aft'orded
Him relief, that he feels that his blood is
pure again, and wishes ine to express his
deep obligations, with which I cheerfully
comply.
Y'ours, respectfully,

The uniform scale ot prices, the eleganee
of cuisine, the comfortable, cleanly and
home-like appearance of apartments, have
placed this popular hotel among the most
prominent of the South, which reflects
great credit on its manager, who leaves t
nothing undone to enhance the comfort ol
its numerous patrons.

The New Hotel.
* Savannah. Ga., Nov. 27,1883.
To the Public of Savannah:
It is a well established fact that the
traveling public of this country are edu
cated to expect the very best hotel ac
commodations. In no part of Europecan
lie found more elegant, better equipped or
more comfortable hotels than those in the
larger cities of the I'nited States. New
Y'ork. Philadelphia. Boston. Chicago and
St. Louis rival each other in the magnifi
cence and thorough appointments ot their
public houses. Our most progressive
Southern cities lay great stress on their
fine hotels. It is beyond doubt true that
our sister State of Florida owes much of
her prosperity to the numerous first-class
houses which have been erected in Jack
sonville and other towns along the St.
John’s river. The same may be said of our
neighboring town of Thomasville, whose
prosperity in tbe past was due mainly to
her possession of a thorough first class,
well appointed hotel, and those realizing
the fact, have been quick to repair her loss
by fire in the erection of two fine new es
tablishments, which will probably be
ready fof tbe reception of guests this
season. Savannah has suffered front this
want for years, and it is so well known a
grievance that it is not necessary to do
more than to simply call your attention
to the fact in asking your sympathy and
aid towards remedying the evil. There
now exists an organized body of well
known and influential citizens whose ob
ject it is to find the ways and means of
building in Savannah such a hotel as will
satisfv the expectations of the numerous
strangers who every winter pass through
our citv on their way to points South or
West of us. Through their deter
mined efforts and public spirits
a site, the most eligible in the city for the
erqption of such a hotel as is needed, has
lieen secured which is in full view of the
two railway depots and which is accessible
for either by a line of street cars passing
through one of our prettiest thorough
fares. With a large and attractive hotel,
kept by first-class people, there can be
little doubt but that our city, with its fine
winter climate and numerous local at
tractions, can retain in our midst—for
longer or shorter periods—many of these
travelers, who now hasten away from us
because of discomforts that they do not
care to confront. With this, state of
affairs existing it is to the interest of
every citizen and of every one engaged
in business here to lend a helping
hand to carry out this project, for next to
good railroad and steamship connections
nothing can be more essential to our future
welfare. As our community is not a
rich one. it is necessary that all who can
should contribute both time and money in
furtherance of this object, for unless there
is a hearty concert of action we cannot
hope to succeed. At a meeting of the
committee appointed bv the citizens of
Savannah, held on the 22d inst., it was
resolved that a stock company should be
formed for the purpose ot purchasing a
site and erecting a hotel thereon. The
chairman of the citizens meeting has
been requested to appoint a committee to
solicit subscribers to this stock company,
and the object of this address is to urge
upon all who are able to become
subscribers. Isy r reference to the local
papers of the 23d inst. the resolution set
ting forth the terms and conditions of the
“subscription contract" can be seen; and
it is fair to say that under such a contract
no subscriber need fear that he will not
get a reasonable interest on tbe sum in
vested, or that his principal will be in
jeopardy. Beyond this he will be directly
and indirectly' advancing the interest of
this city to aii extent that, at this time,
we can scarcely realize. Very respect
