SAVANNAH PRICES CURRENT.
The proprietor of the News and Herald
w, lnufj regretted his inability to secure the
services or a waapioteut person to conduct his
local commeicial department, but has now
. secured the services of Capt. Geo. H. John
stone, publisher of the Mercantile Index,
who will furnish full market reports for this
journal, and also edit a weekly letAArsheet
Prices Current, to be issued from this office.
While publishing the Index, we believe his
Prices Current had much the largest circula
tion and best reputation among the mer
chants, of aijy. in the city, being remarkable
for its accuracy and general acceptability.
We propose to devote all reasonable space,
and every exertion to the production of a re
liable and complete financial and commercial
article each week, and the publication of any
important changes each day.

GEO. H. JOHNSTONE.
The patriotic aud beautiful poem which
appears on the fourth page of this paper,
over the nom de plume of Miles O Reilly, is
from the pen of the accomplished and gifted
editor of the New York Citizen, Col. C. 11.
Halpine, whose brilliant services during-the
War on the Federal side are not more highly
valued at the North than his generous senti
ments toward a vanquished foe are apprecia
ted at the South.
GOVERNOR JOHNSON’S LETTER
We publish in our [columns to-day the
able and highly interesting letter of Gov
ernor Johnson, which appeared in the Au
gusta Chronicle of the 6th. It is indeed a
masterly production,the patriotic sentiments
of which will be heartily endorsed by every
patriot in the land., „We earnestly commend
it to the careful peitisAl of oirl headers as a
complete vindication of the Philadelphia
platform aud the Southern members
of the Convention which adopted
it. He portrays with a vigorous pea the
great misfortune under which the South is
struggling as an unrepresented aud disfran
chised people, and desires the restore iion of
the Union on the basis of its original founda
* tion, believing that the South needs its
strength, its wealth and protection. He
counsels harmony among our own people
and moderation on the part of the victorious
Worth. because Ummw qualtolftjtftf indispeu-
of peace and brotherhood between iflfe peo
ple of the two sections. ■ He ardently hopes,
therefore, for the success of the great con
servative movement inaugurated at Philadel
phia, which will ignore all party antecedents
and base its action upon accepting the w ar
construction of the Federal Constitution as
an inevitable fact, and upon tiie restoration
of mutual confidence and mutual respect on
the part of those who have been so fiercely
embittered against each other. We feel as
sured that the patriotic advice contained in
this letter will not fall unheeded upon the
minds of our people. . j
Pkaykii for President Davis.—At the
late session of the Albermarle (Virginia)
Baptist Association, the following prayer
w49 otiered up, by Rev. Dr. Broaddus, in
behalf of the illustrious captive who is now
wasting away in the dungeons of For
tress Monroe. If ‘ the prayer of the right
eous availeth much,” will not the clergy of
the South unite in this appropriate supplica
tion, on each coming Lord's day, till the
prayer is answered?
“Oh, thou God of nations! thou God of
the whole earth! Look down upon our fel
low-citizen, recently the chief magistrate of
the political confederation now no longer
existing. In the mysterious workings of
Thy Providence, Thou hast permitted
Thy servant to> be confined in a loathsome
prison, shut out from all communion with
the thousands that love him.
“We wjoolfi bow in-horrible submission to
Thy-Wifi t but. Oh Lord, asTby servant suf
fers in our 9tead, who deserve whatever pen
alties he deserves, we plead with Thee in
tnli&lf of Thy serW0lit|>at he may soon he
released from prison and permitted to breathe
the air of personal liberty. But, if he must
suffer still longer, grant him grace, that he
may bear with Christian patience and for
titude the bitter sufferings- of his present
condition.” ,
Opinion’ or an Outsider.—The Montreal'
Gazette thus speculates upon the probable
result of the conflict now going on in this
country:
“It is probable that Mr. Johnson's course
will receive the approval of a very large por
tion of the inhabitants, of tbte people of the
Northern States. It is further not impro
bable that the new party may Rupplant the
sectional Republican one, for the reason of
having rnnjits course and made constitutional:
government very difficult. The success w
m new party would ifuplySncrease of liber
ality. in the trading relations of the United
States with other countries.” 1

riea of (rightful ravage# of cholera hare been eet afloat
in the city and adjoining country, creating the greatest
panic. Some of the first citizens caught the alarm and

ia not five times as many. Large numbers of them
lire crowded together in the temporary buildings
erected during the last year of the war for barracks
and other military purposes. • In these they live in
filth and with all their peculiar habits.
There have been but three" deaths in .the city from
anything that could be termed cholera) The first two
were found to have been oaused' by imprudent diet
and aggravated by the oppressive weather. The last
case occnrrpd yesterday. TUa caaehafbeen the mqa*
serious yet- The person was an his way to the city
from up the liter; was attacked while in tho boat,

died in a few hours from the attack. The deceased
was a person of intemperate habits, and bad been in

thia detention has Chused the Charleston boats, to

driven the travel to Savannah by way of the circuitous
route through Montlcello to tho Atlantic ahd Gulf
Railroad, • i •
THE T|T7*Tie TIMED INTO.
When the "Lizzie Baker” was running into Fer-
ii.ii.iin, .he was brought too off the quarantine station.
There was a strong flood tide running, which -carried
her above the station a few feet. A shot was fired
across her bows. Tne steamboat instantly backed her

pointed the bow towards the boat and started the en

the bow not far from her wbeelhouae. Tho Captain
was somewhat .taken aback by Buch ptbceeding, as be
had long given up -blockade-running aud become
a good loyal citizen. It was the Captain's intention
to laud hia Jacksonville freight and passengers at
Femandiua aud retprn direct to Savannah. As the
Florida railroad is far from being completed between
Femandiua aud Baldwin, the inconvenience to the
people of Jacksonville by such 'a proceedjpg yrould be
