Caught.
Bon Walker (colored), whom we
gave a notice about a week since for the
shrewd manner in which he duped
some travellers, and whom wc warned
to beware of his friends who were
looking for him, has been caught, tried
and sentenced. Yesterday, Justice
Doyle gave him six months on the
chain gang. He is to be tried for
further offences, and we presume this
sentence will be commuted by extend

The Republican Party
Is called the nigger party by the
Democrats, because the Democrats
can’t get the negroes to desert it and
join them.
The only reason that the Democratic
party is not the nigger party is be
cause the negroes, despite persuasion,
bribery and outrage, have concluded
their interests do not lie in that di
rection.
The Great Objection
The Democracy have to universal
suffrage arises from the fact, which
they have at last discovered, that the
greater the number of voters the
greater their defeat. The more the
people think, and the more people
there arc to think, the greater the
chances are that proper conclusions
will be arrived at. This thing must
be stopped, or “Democracy” is dead.
The Municipal Election.
Our Democratic friends, after much
caucussing, have, we learn, agreed
upon the following ticket for Mayor
and Aldermen, at the election to be
held on the second day of December,
proximo:
Democratic Ticket.

About Pannier*.
Os all the many ugly fashions in
flicted on the ladies, the latest and
very ugliest is the Pannier.
Let us see what the Dictionaries say
about tnc word. Wbbster tells us
that “a Pannier is one who waits at
table in the Society of the Temple,
London.” Worcester has it thus:
“Pannier, originally a bread-basket*—
now applied to one of two baskets sus
pended from the back of a beast of
burden, in which fruit and other things
are carried.”
We don’t know whether or not the
ladies carry “fruit and other things”
in their Panniers, but we do know
that they do not improve the appear
ance of a lady’s figure, if we may
judge of the specimens one secs every
day on Broad street.
Then, again, the unfortunate wear
ers cannot sit down whilst the Pannier
is on. A Paris letter says that ladies
are very much offended if offered a
chair; it is cruel toward their weak
sex and Panniers; they cannot do it.
When once dressed, they have to stand
up, even if ready’ to drop, for velvet
may not be crushed with impunity,
nor all the other low empires behind,
on which spread bows, ends and trim
mings of all kinds.
Only those ladies will wear the ugly
thing who do not care to be admired
by the gentlemen.

A large quantity of Old Type, suit
able for anti-friction metal, may be
purchased at this office. It will be
sold in lots to suit purchasers. • '
Accident*.
The Macon Telegraph of yesterday
states that Mr. Joe Bennett, a eon
ductor on the up freight train front
Eufaula, while in the act of coupling
two freight trains together, at Daw
son, was caught, just aliove the hips,
between the coupling-boxes and so
badly crushed tts to leave but little
hope of bis recovery.
The same paper says that, on Tues
day last, while Mr. A. M. McDonald,
of Houston county, was in the act of get
ting on the Central train, at the passen
ger shed in that eity, he slipped and
fell, his head striking the lloor very’
violently. He was immediately re
moved to the Brown House, and Drs.
Wright and Holmes were called in to
give him medical aid. He complained
much of his head hurting him, and con
tinued to sink until Wednesday after,
noon, when he died from the effects of
the fall. Mr. McDonald was about
sixty years of age
Church Robbery.
The Citadel Square Baptist Church,
in Charleston, was entered a few
nights since, by some unknown per
sons, and despoiled of a number of
the cushions and carpets of the pews,
and the pitcher and tumblers belong
ing to the pulpit. The News says that
it is not known how the thieves ob
tained entrance to the Church, but
surmises that the robbery was effected
during the late Radical Mass Meeting,
when the steps of the Church were
used as the rostrum of the speakers,
and intimates that the theft was com
mitted by members of that party.
The editor’s surmise may be well
grounded, but we suspect the robbery
was committed by Democrats, who
took advantage of the gathering to
saddle their sacrilegious act upon the
Republicans.

It would not cost the Savannah .4J

Justice to Grant.
A correspondent of the Missouri
Democrat, writing from Washington;
says:
On Sunday I saw Gen. Grant walking on
the Avenue with a friend, well clad, smok
ing, unconsious or inexpressive of his new
eminence.' Here he will remain till the day
of inauguration, and the applauses the rebel
newspapers pay to him, show the infamy of
their attempts to blacken his character during
the canvass that has passed. At no time in
the history of our politics has a candidate
been so traduced, and so causelessly.
General Grant has never been annoyed by
these newspaper libels, lie is deaf to the
praises of his enemies. The history of pub
lic life shows no experience so straight-for
warded and practical as his. At this moment,
calm and unassuming in the honeymoon of
victory, he isattentive tohisprivate’intercsts,
busied with bis children, building the foun
dation of a private fortune that shall make it
easy for his descendants to support the credit
of their name. General Grant is rich already,
and by cautious investments he is destined to
be very rich one day, ranking with the most
opulent. lie owns 38 acres of land within the
corporate limits of Washington, worth $2,000
an acre. His house here is held at $60,000. A
farm near St. Louis and houses at Galena and
in Philadelphia should add SIOO,OOO to the for
mer items. Three hundred thousand dollars
will probably not be in excess of the Presi
dent elect’s possessions. Meantime his com
mercial training and fondness for material
speculations, added to his good luck and cau
tion, are exemplifying themselves in judicious
operations in many honorable fields. It is
altogether probable that we shall have in
Grant a President who, in exercising all due
liberality and hospitality in the Chief Magis
tracy, will be the first President since Wash
ington to lie discreet and practical in the
management of his private fortune. His
comparative youth will permit him, should
he live to the average age of Presidents,
thirty years' duration after the expiration of
his term of office,
Thus, the man denounced as a profligate
and a drunkard is exemplified to be a man of
painstaking thrift and constant practical sa
gacity. With all this he is exceedingly lib
eral, and his gifts to churches and cliarities
amount to many thousands of dollars. It is
understood in this city that when General
Grant shall occupy the White Ilouse, his
brother-in-law, General Dent, will become
the tenant of the large brick dwelling where
now abides the President elect

Burning of Foreuaugh’s Menag
erie.—Messrs. Roscoe, Clarke <fc Co.’s
saw-mill, in the north-west part of
Philadelphia, was burned on Saturday
evening, 14th instant, and the flames
were communicated to an adjoining
building, which was used for winter
ing Forcpaugh’s menagerie. The ani
mals escaped into the streets, seriously
alarming the people. A large African
lion was caught in the street by
throwing over him a box used for
mixing mortar. A leopard rushed
into a house where were several women
and children, but the beast was as
much frightened as the women and
children, and took refuge in the cel
lar. The total loss is estimated at
$65,000.
—A festive youth, living near Ran
ger’s lianding," on Green river, Ky.,
appropriated a pair of pants belonging
to another, and wore them to a party,
a few nights ago. The owner was
present and recognized the apparel,
and compelled the wearer to doff them
on the spot.
Relic of the Late “So-Called.”
—A tin *box, deposited in 1865 in the
United States Treasury by Secretary
Stanton, has recently been the object
of a complicated series of investiga
tions. The question of opening this
locked and scaled box has been refer
red backward and forward between
the Secretary of the Treasury, the
Secretary of the War, General Grant
and the President. Several Cabinet
meetings were held on the subject,
but no conclusion was arrived at.
Finally' it was decided that the author
ity to break open this box of conten
tion was vested in the Secretary of
War, who a few days ago detailed
General Hardee to superintend the
proceedings. Witnesses were sent
for from the Treasury and the {Attor
ney-General's Department, and on
opening the battered, dusty box, in
stead of finding, as it was confidently
expected, $30,000 in gold, there were
exposed to view a scarf and water
proof cloak, labelled. “Taken from
the jierson of Jefferson Davis at the
time of his capture by Colonel Pritch
ard, of the U. S. A.”
Serious Result from a Slight
Cause.—A day or two since Captain
McFarland, master of the brig
Triumph, which sailed for Philadel
phia yesterday, was in a bowling
alley here, playing a game of ten pins,
and while in the act of picking up a
ball from off’ the floor, he run a splinter
under the nail of the second finger of
the right hand. The pain xvhich
ensued was so intense that the Captain
went out to the City Hospital for
relief. He was attended by Dr. Bul
loch, who extracted the splinter, and
did ail in his pow er to relieve the pain.
On Tuesday evening Captain Mc-
Farland was seized with lockjaw, and
was in a very critical condition yes
terday.—Savannah News, 9th.
—A singular case has just come be
fore the French tribunals. A young
girl eleven years of age attempted suc
cessively the life of her mother and
sister, for the sole purpose of drinking
their blood. The child has been ex
amined by competent physicians, and
proved to be attacked by the strange
mania of authropophagy. Her ex
treme youth leads the physicians to
hope that here cure may be accom
] dished.
—Buckle, in his History of Civiliza
tion, says that marriage docs not
depend upon love, but upon the price
of corn. It is evident that children
have long known this, and have even
measured love as men measure corn,
as appears from their common ex
pression: “I love you two bushels
and a peck.” The statistical lover
does not now say, as he used to:
“Amanda, I love thee,” but, “Aman
da, provisions are cheap.”
—A singular accident occurred at
the execution of the murderers of
Prince Michael, in Servia. A musket
ball rebounded from the post to which
one of the criminals was attached, and
struck the forehead of the officer who
was in command of the executing
party. He was killed on'the spot.

ordered, returnable on Tuesday next, call

The report of the proceedings of the con
vention or the colored men of Florida,
held here on the 2d of November, in ac
cordancc with the recommendation of the
Colored Convention, held in Boston, Qcto
l«cr 2d, was published to-day in the official
paper of this judicial district. There
seems to have been perfect accord between
all the delegates sent here, and no signs of
a split visible. At this convention, indi
viduals, both white and colored, made ad
dresses, and who arc now in opposition to
each other. In the same issue appears a
proclamation, with no headquarters named,
and simed, Robert Cox, Chairman, and
A. C. Lightbourn, Secretary (both of whom
arc colored) in opposition to Saunders’
nomination. It says that, finding Saun
ders’ course will ruin the State, and more
especially the Republican party, and thus
bind us hand and food, so that the demo
cratic party may finally triumph; and, hav
ing seen the condition of the colored tnen
of Georgia, who have been prostrated from
the condition of manhood which the Con
stitution gives them, by having the Democ
racy as rulers. They say they know that
a split in the Republican ranks, particu
larly in the colored clement of the popula
tion of flint State, brought her to her pres
ent condition; that the Constitution of
this State opens the door to every former
rebel, however vicious, allowing him to
vote. That they cannot afford to have a
split in their midst, without swamping.
They appeal to every colored man in this
State to stand firm in support of C. M.
Hamilton, the regular nominee, who is a
good Republican; and asks Saunders to
stay still awhile, when he shall lie taken
care of, and notify him that if he enters
the field, that Justice, noted as a great
Tiger Hunter, will shoot him politically
dead.
This manifesto proposes to come from
the voters of the comity of Leon, met for
the purpose of considering the course
taken by Col. W. W. Saunders as an inde
pendent candidate for Congress.
