ter in the Old Fort district last night. He
attempted to arrest a negro who was cre
ating a disturbance, when he was set
upon by the crowd and a rush made to
release the prisoner. The plucky officer

a hundred of the Old Fort denizens,
threatening him all the way to the bar
racks. lie called upon one of them to as
sist him, and succeeded in this way in
getting four of them within the sally port,
where they were nabbed and lodged in a
cell to keep company with their hero.
Stabbed in the Throat and Eye.
A serious cutting affray occurred in the
vicinity of York and Price streets about
10 o’clock last night, in which a negro
ruffian was badly mutilated. The affray

one eye, nearly destroying his sight. His
assailant tied and escaped arrest- The

OCR SOUTHERN SOLOIEKT.
A Grand Encampment to be Held at
Rome in July.
A grand encampment of Southern mili
tary will be held at Rome, Ga., between
July 2 aud 11. The encampment will be
under the charge of Cajit. John C. Printup,
General Manager, who, with the Executive
Committee, intend to make it a grand re
union of the soldiery of the South. In his
circular heays:
“Many of those who sheathed their
swords aud stacked their arms nineteen
years ago, when.the Southern Cross went
down at Appomattox Court House, and
parted, they thought to meet no more for
ever, will gather around the camp fire on
the banks of the Oostanaula and return in
memory to the stirring past. Out on the
tented field, with only the Southern sky
above them, and the sentry in gray pass
ing to and fro. once again the stately
forms of Leo and Jackson will greet their
mental vision; once more can be seen the
toss of Stuart’s plume and the Hash ot
Ashby’s sword. Old comrades, who
fought shoulder to shoulder, will clasp
hands again and renew old friendships.
Aside from this the encampment will
bring the young men of the South to
gether and inaugurate anew spirit of
brotherly love between them.
“The place selected for the encampment
is an open plateau on the bank of the
Oostanaula, opposite Rome, and only 500
yards from the business portion of the
city. The following is a partial list of the
companies invited: Albany Guards, Al
bany, Ga.: Gate City Guards, Governor’s

THE GUARDS’ FAIR.
Its Opening Next Month—Grand Di.stri
but ion of Property.
| The interest in the Savannah Volunteer
Guards’ Fair, to open on the 15th of April,
increases as the event approaches. The
donations have been swelled to a large
amount, and probably the iinest display
ever seen in Savannah will be made. The
building in which it will be beid has al
ready been described in the Morning
Nkvvs.
One of the features of the fair will be the
disposition ot a large amount of property
by lot. The managers have set apart $5,-
700 worth to be disposed of among those
who purchase an interest by tickets at $2
each. By purchasing a ticket the holder
agrees that the property shall be put into
250 parcels and be distributed by
disinterested commissioners. This is a
liberal plan and a wise one, and the tickets
will doubtless have a large sale. The
high standing of the commissioners, com
prising Gen. A. R. Lawton, Gen. G. M.
Sorrel, Capt. G. A. Mercer, lion. Robert
Falligant and Hon. J. R. Saussy, as well
as ol the General Fair Committee, war
rants lair play. The drawing will in
clude 250 prizes, and will take place
towards the close of the fair. A de
tailed list of the property comprising the
prizes is published elsewhere in the
Morning News to-day.

AN INTERESTING INQUIRY.
Isa Recipient of a Great Favor, Whi-li
Conies Just in the Nick of Time, Justi
fiable in Wishing That He May Never
See the Person Who so Opportunely
Rendered Him the Assistance?
Editor Mamina News: No doubt each of
your readers will at once say when he
reads the heading of this article, “O
course the recipient of a favor is not justi
fiable in hoping that he will never see, for
the purpose of thanking him, the person
who assisted him in the time of great
need. AVhy, I would seek him out just
for the pleasure of thanking him and
showing him that I was not ungrateful.”
It does appear on the spur of the moment
that this would be the natural thing to do,
but I must differ with your readers, and
say that many of them, il not all, would
feel under like circumstances precisely as
I feel now. 1 hope fervently that I mav
never set eyes on, or hear from, the gen
tleman who belriended me—unwittingly I
must admit—on Friday last. And after
reading the incident I now jot down I am
sure that they will agree with me and say
I am justifiable. I reached m? office on
that day early after breakfast,
and after performing the necessary
and daily duty of reading the
Morning News to see what had
happened, and was happening at home
j and abroad, I began my daily business.
I All at once the recollection flashed across
my mind like lightning, that an irnpor
! tant matter of a professional nature must
be attended to as soon as I could reach
the court house.. 1 glanced up hastily
and discovered that it was raining quite
hard. As my wardrobe would not war
i rant the risk of a wetting, and eonse
| quent change of raiment, much less the
attack of gout that I might expect if I
1 remained in damp clothes even for
i a short time, I reached for the
corner where I habitually kept my um
j brella, and found, much‘to my chagrin,
| that I ‘had left it at home.’ What was I
to do in order to reach the court house in
time? was a question that must be solved
at once. I arose from mv seat in a hurry
and discovered to my great joy that some
client had forgotten a bran new sixteen
ribbed umbrella on my table, at which he
must have been sitting the afternoon be
fore. To seize the umbrella so oppor
tunely presented to me was but the act
of a moment. All the way to the court
house I watched closely each gentleman
I met. Mind you, I did not seek to
avoid them, though fearing that some
one might recognize the umbrella and lav
claim to it. Rut no one did so, and I have
been hoping and wishing ever since that
I would never meet with this kind friend
wbo did me such a great favor at a mo
ment of such grievous necessity on mv
; part. Now, sir, don’t you think that
your readers will say that I am justifiable
in thus hoping (I liked to have said pray
ing) and wishing that 1 may never meet
him for the purpose ol thanking him ?
No doubt it will be thought by many
who will read this that I am
rather innocent in thus “giving myself
away.” My answer is that lam natur
ally of a religious turn, and still recollect
the difference between meum and tuum,
and also that there is one commandment
tlie ten which commands that
“Ihou shalt not covet tby neighbor's
goods.” And, besides, I always desire to
help the orphans, and should this article
be read by the owner of the umbrella and
he comes to claim it, before giving it up 1
shall require of him that he pay the value
ol it to the orphans of the city without
regard to religious sect. 1 mean to both
orphan asylums of this city. Alpha.
Fashion Notes.
Figured materials should only form
parts of a toilet.
A tiny bird hovering over a rose is one
of the prettiest of the new printed percale
designs.
Parisians are combining English crape
with satin for effective dinner and recep
tion toilets.
For light mourning the capotes of uncut
velvet sometimes has a brim covered with
diamonds of iet.
Reception dresses are being made of
cloth.-with tabliers of Parisian velvet
flowers and birds.
Reception or dinner toilets of cresson
colored stuffs and silver are peculiarly
novel and beautiful.
A little pelerine cape, just covering the j
shoulders, is pretty and fashionable with i
the toilets of children.
A little gathered capote of two shades I
of blue, pink, or yellow is the proper bon
net for the three-year-olds.
Morning dresses of pale-pink or blue
cashmere, embroidered with rosebuds,
form a part of brides’ outfits.
The new sateens, with a crescent and
ottn acolgli uu glGuiulo *>€ variolic onlortt
are destined to great popularity.
Gray brown is a popular shade in the
new spring velvets. Jet belts mingled
with silver and steel beads are in favor.
Gendarme blue is so becoming that
English women have received it, and are
toning it with brown marabout trim
mings.
Novelties in handkerchiefs are of deli
cate unbleached and coffee-tinted batiste,
with fine embroidered borders in white and
in colors.
Oriental broche damasks, with the
design outlined in cashmere beads, make
the front and sleeves of velvet and satiii
dinner dressss.
Knots of duck and woodcock feathers, i
three or seven in the bunch, make prettv j
trimmings lor the simple felt walking hat’s i
of young ladies.
The fashionable shade of pink known as I
topaz, which has a delicate sheen of gold
in it, is very becoming both to dark and
fair complexions.
Fashionable fans have black, white or
colored feathers on shell or amber sticks.
Ostrich feathers and coque plumes are the
favorite selection.
Curious serpent rings are worn by
gentlemen. They are three or four slender
coils of gold with diamond eyes, and the
head is otherwise jeweled.
Suisse belts of dark velvet are worn
with ca9bmero house dresses by young
girls. The bodice Is a full blouse gaugod
on the shoulder before and behind, and
the paniers drape a plaited skirt.
White toilets of all kinds appear to be
more than ever the rage in the fashionable
world; cream, snowdrop, and ivory being
generally preferred to the very trying
bluish or pearl-white shades. Of white
dre6s fabrics there are an elegant and al
most endless variety; white brocades,
satins, merveilleux, Ottomans, Irish pop
lins, plushes, plain and embossed velvets,
Hindoo cashmeres, vigognes, English
veilings, china crapes, tulles, and French
mulls being equally in vogue.

Editor Morning News: Allow me
space to add another item to the long list
of complaints. People on Bay street are
treated every day to most abominable
singing and playing by two half-grown
girls, evidently the children or property
of some professional beggar, growing up
to be a burden to the community. Can
not something be done to have the children
placed where they are taught and render
ed useful? W. W. W.
Twenty-four Hourg to Live.
From John Kuhn, Lafayette, Ipd., who
announces that he is now in “perfect
health,” we have the following: “One
year ago I was, to all appearance, in the
last stages of Consumption. Our best
physicians gave my case up. I finally got
so low that our doctor said I could only
live twenty-four hours. My friends then
purchased a bottle of Dr.’ Wm. Hall’s
Balsam for the Lungs, which consid
erably benefited me. I continued until I
took nine bottles, and lam now in perfect
health.
There are Some who Can’t Wait.
For the benefit of those who may desire
to anticipate the season a little, it might
prove opportune to state that although
Mr. Mitchell has gone to New York to
personally superintend the getting out of
the main portion of his Spring Stock of
Gents', Youths’, and Boys’ fine tailor
made Clothing, he has left behind him
some selections of Spring Clothing that
have just come in, so that the impatient
ones will find something already on his
counters to please them. Some of the
winter goods still remain and will be dis
posed of at “dirt cheap” figures to make
room for the heavy lines of Spring Goods
to come, and in this short interval some
of the most notable bargains ever offered
in Savannah may be had. Call and in
spect the stock whether you want to pur
chase or not. We can discuss the
“weather” and the “trade aspect” if no
thing else. No trouble to find the huge
