The Board of City Assessors met at the
City Ball, on yesterday, organised, and went
to work. Tho Board is composed of Messrs.
John U. Meyer, Thomas K. Rhodes, John
Davidson, Wm. H. Goodrich, citiaeos, nnd
E. Tweedy, of Council (in place of Alder*
man ConWy, who is abseut.)
Last year, if we remember aright, the
assessed value of real estate was $0,125,000;
and it is thought the amount will be largely
increased the present year.
u Passing A war*”
Wo regret to learn of the death, on the
21st instant, of Mrs. Maky Ahn Liwis (wife
of Mr. F. F. Liwis), for tho past thirty-five
years a muoh-beloved resident of Macon-
Mrs. Lewis was a native of New Haven,
and aged about sixty fivo years. She has
entered upon her heavenly rest, whither all
her children have preceded her. To her
bereaved and lono husband, our life time
friend, we tender sinccro condolence, and
pray that his declining years may bo
soothed wjth the bright anticipation of
reunion with his loved onos beyond the
river, in our Father’s home on high.

Not more than two evenings ago, about 7i
o’clock, two of our most estimable citizens
entered the street car, at the intersection of
Broad and Monument streets, with the view
of getting ten cents’ worth of fun—“going
the grand rounds,” up to tho factory and
back. The twain enjoyed the ride hugely
on the way up, passed the factory, and then
became aware that the car was run into the
depot. After quietly waiting awhile for tho
car to start on the return trip, they politely
announced to the driver that they were de
sirous of returning, by the same mode of
conveyance, to their starting point—and
were informed by that gentleman that their
wish could be gratified if they saw fit to
remain where they were until eight o’clock
on the next morning I They didn’t wait.
Since the affair leaked out, some of their
friends joked them about taking a trip West
to do Picket duty.
Saving: Ibe Soot.
Among the new enterprises of Savannah,
is that of Mr. J. Gardner, a gentleman who
has shown a great deal of energy in one
way and another. It is that of manufao
turing Poudrettc from night soil. In order
to accomplish this and manufacture it
cheaply, it is nccossary to secure an eco
nomical disinfectant and purifier, aud here
another formerly useless and somewhat
annoying refuse—chimney soot—is called
into requisition, and Mr. W. F. Parker, the
chimney contractor, has employed an extra
hand to follow after his little black-a-mOors
to gather it up. This looks like business,
when such useless articles as these can be
brought into requisition and made to supply
home-made fertilizers.
Newspaper Spongers.
An exchange makes the following sensi.
ble remarks: “There are many people in
the world who make it a business to sponge
the reading of their county paper without
any expense to themselves. This has often
been noticed and commented upon. They
are found wherever the paper is left—in a
shop, office, store, or barber shop—and
often borrow it before the owner has an
opportunity of raising it from the table.
This is done by very many who are abun
dantly able, and whose doty would seem to
be, to sustain their county paper, by sub
scribing and paying for the same.”
Superior Court.
In his charge to the second Grand Jury,
on yesterday, Judge Gibson alluded, at
Some length, to the practices of gambling,
carrying concealed weapons, the sale of
ardent spirifs without licenses from the
Inferior Court, and vagrancy. We trust
that the Jurors will give special considera
tion to these matters. No one can deny
that the present social aspect, hereabouts)
calls loudly for reform.
The following gentlemen compose the
Grand Jury :

A “ Declined” Article.
The Chronicle and Sentinel, 2Gth instant,
contained the following paragram—com
ment upon which is unnecessary:
“ Declined, —Wo have received, marked

l ight Lacing SelcMc,
The verdiot of the coroner’s jury in the
case of Mise A. Tours, who died in New
York on Sunday afternoon, might be
repeated in very many cases where women
died before even the prime ot womanhood
is reached—“ Killed herself by tight
lacing.” Seldom does this fearful truth
come to us in so direct a manner as in this
case. The troth comes to ns, however, in
a thousand shape*, day by day, and year
by year, if we Would but recognize it
under its various forms. Doctors uro
defied by complication of disease, and gen
erally omit to discuss the real cause of the
complication. Young women are sickly;
the cares of the household, of children, of
existence, in fact, are a burthen to them.
They fade very soon after marriage, are
very pale or sallow, hollow-cheeked, and
sunken-eyed. “ Suicide by tight lacing”
is a verdict which is not given frequently
enough in the metropolis It comes upon
us this week as something new, something
unexpected—terrible in its directness, and
beyond the reach of the polite mirnoiners
of tho family doctor.
Trouble in the Fire Department.
The engineers of the different steam fire
companies have all given up their positions,
the City Council not having rescinded their
action, cutting down the salaries of those
officers to fifty dollars per month. This
latter sum is considered by the engineers
as entirely inadequate for tho service, and
they have consequently hunted up other
situations. On Thursday, the Acting Chief
of the Department, Jas. A. Barron, called
upon the Insurance Agents in this city, and
informed them that the Department could
not now use its engines, and that in case
of emergency there were four hand engines
that could be used, but only one of those,
Pulaski No. 2 (colored), could be depended
upon.
Ilis Honor, Mayor Anderson, stated to
the Insurance Agents, that when he was
officially notified of the fact of the resigna
tion of tho engineers, others would be
provided to fill their places. With this
assurance the Insurance Agents took no
further action in the matter.
We are sorry that the companies have
lost the services of efficient and competent
men, and hope that their places will be
filled by good and careful engineers, if
such can bo found, willing to do the arduous
service required of them for so small a sum.
The matter creates great excitement among
the firemen, and we trust that it will be
speedily settled, as so long as the engines
remain without any one to run them, there
is no security for property in the city.—
Savannah Republican.

tutional argument against the bill.
