Tee Opeea—Oompluuhtabt Bmrir or
Uua McOullooh.—The very large and brOlUmt au
dience at the Theatre last night, and especially the
large attendance of the connolaaeoza of the divine
ait, was a fitting tribute to the worth aityl talents of
the fair beneficiary, Miss McCulloch.
~”&e Barber of Seville, of light oparae the lightest,
of comic the most fanny, was selected for the
occasion. Wherever the Italian opera is known will
be found the Barber delighting all, end last tight
was not an exception, for Its character! personated
by Mias McCulloch, Signors Giovanni Boye, Carlo
Orlandini, Augustlno gnslni and Yineenso Locatelll
were exhibited in the most favorable light; while the
fine voices lent additional charm to the light, gay and
varied music of the story.
We have not space to epeek of the acting ol each,
and can only say that the encomiums won by the
performance of the first night were more than dou
bled by that of last night.
Miss McCulloch was of course the centre of attrac
tion. Her ft. e personation of the character of Bo-
sina would have done credit to aotreases over whose
heads have floated years of experience. She was
almost incessantly app ended, and at the conclusion
called before the cnrtain and calls made for a song,
L at with a simple bow of acknowledgment she re-
red.
The benefit was a success in every particular, snd
we are sa^e in asserting that all who attended last
night will not fall to witness the performance to
night.

THE new fire department of
BA1NBRIDOB.
The Trip — Incldents —Reception—Trial—
Hospitality of the Cltlxecs.
We annoanced the contemplated departure of the
delegation from the white Fire Department of Sa
vannah for Bainbridge, formally to present the
“Stonewall,” No. 1, one of the pets of the city, to the
City of Oaks on the Flint.
At four o'clock on Mondsy, the delegation, com
posed of First Assistant Barron, Val. Bashler and J.
Fox, of the Germania; J Stroass snd J. Msnro, of
the Washington; J. Sibley and H. Mendel, of the
Oglethorpe; W. N. Valleau and G. Metcalf, of the
Metropolitan; J. J. McKenzie and J. E. Oompas, of
the Mechanics, and Wm. Godfrey, of the Marshall
Hose, assembled at the Golf Railroad Depot, where,
under the kind care of Condnotor Tyson, of Thomas-
ville, they took passage for the city of Bainbridge.
The trip was altogether pleasant, no broken limbs
giving evidence of inexperienced engineers, and no
dead bodies showing want of attention on the part of
conductors—naught heard to break the melancholy
hours of midnight, save the occasional grant of some
wearied fireman who composed himseif upon fonr
seats and as many cushions, gleaned from others’ re
pose. The “bushwhacker in the wilderness’’ was all
korrect on the (a E E’s,’ 1 snd the tedious ride to the
thriving city on the Throneeteska was passed over
without fa'igno.
“There was music there whose joyous spell
Broke sleep to pieces, nor could mend it.’’
Well,the puff and smoke and mnslc grew test and fu
rious, and the furious was the predominating charac
teristic. Even E. B got enthusiastioand took some
thing, as did the most of the company, saving and
excepting the bushwhacker.
Your reporter slept not, his eyes snd es-s being
constantly open to citcb some item of interest to the
readers of the Nkws and Herald. The crops on the
Hue of the road, thongh Bomewhat backward, give
promise of an abundant yield to the energy and en
terprise of the honost farmer, and they have gone
to work dilligently to make bread this year.
THE ABBIVAL.
The delegation arrived at 6 o’clock A. M. at the
Forest City junior, where they found the Stonewall
No. 1,drawn up in line ready to reoeive them.
STONEWALL NO. 1.
This fire company, which was organized Dec. 7,
1867, is composed of enterprising, pablic-apirited
and euergetic young men, and will soon find their
efforts to establish themselves, crowned with com
plete success.
The gentlemen members of this company, actuated
as they are, by the best and noblest impulses of our
□stare, and the most praiseworthy principle—that
of protecting the property of their fellow-citizens
from the devouring element, whether at midday, or
the silent watches of the night, deserve the grateful
prayi ra, bo&t wishes and co-operation of every one
interested in the prosperity of the city. No calling is
nobler than the firemen’s. “Ever read*” Is their
watebward; and, if called upon, they risk their lives
In performing (heir duties. *
About fifty men met the Savannah delegation un
der tlie following officers: Capt. E. R. Peabidv,
President; G. T. Gaden, 1st Assistant; B. E. Rus
sell. 2d Assi-tant; Dr. T. H. Wardell, Secretary;
John D. Harrell, Treasurer.
RECEPTION.
On arriving at the Depot the Savannah delegation
found the Stonewall, No. 1, which hai been shipped
the day previous “right side up with care,” and the
Stonewall boys, under their efficient President, Cap
tain B. R. Peabody, ready to receive them, where
they were heartily welcomtd by Mr. Hines oa the
part of the Stonewall Company in the lollowlng ap
propriate terms:
Gentlemen of the Savannah Fire Department: I have
been deputed on tne paj t cf Stonewall Fire Company,
mo. 1. to extend to you as the representatives of the
Savannah firemen a hearty welcome to our little Ci'y
of Oak?. It is a pleasing doty to perform, and one
witicb snouid have been delegated to an abler tongue
than my own. The two cities of Bainbridge and sa
vannah arc identified in feeling and spirit. Con
nected by iron tits of prosperity and electric ties of
thought and impulse, you have this day added a new
link to the chain of lellowsblp, and are hero to stand
sponsor* to a christening which gives security to pro
perly, life and interests, and which inaugurates an
era in our youDg community. In behalf of Stone
wall, No. 1,1 heartily welcome you to our bearti and
our hospitalities.
Three rousing cheers and a “tiger,” which was
taken ap and ie-echoed by the yonng men of Bain-
bridge, greeted this simple but truthful expression
of feeliog.
Ibis generous welcome was responded to on the
p irt of the delegation by Mr. Vallean, of the Metro
politans, who said that the fatigue of the trip pre-
clutied any set speech, but that a’ter the inner min
had been satisfied by the breakfast which he knew
awa’fied them, the muscular and vocal powers of the
delegation would ba felt and heard.
BREAKFAST.
Tho Stonewall boys and the delegation, manning
the drags rf the machine, sho was hanled to the
Coart House Square, where sho was left on inspec
tion until after the wants of the inner man had been
satisfied by mine host of the Sharon House, who keeps
and knows how to keep s hotel in Bainbridge.

At 9 o’clock tho public trial Of the engine tcok
place at the river, where a barrel of water from the
S i van nab (Isondega). which was (on the snggestion
of the News and Herald), transported to Bainbridge
and mingled with the limpid streams of the Flint,
(Throneeteska), und r the supervision of the following
committee: W. O. F.eming, C. Lewis, and J. B.
Hayes on the part of the City Council, and J. E. Dick
inson, D B. McKenzie and B. F. Bruton on the part
of the citizens. Tho t st was all that could have
been desired, the engine manned by the Stonewall
Company and the Savannah delegation, drawing her
water from the Flint, and playing through two streams
np the steep bluff of the river, throwing 116 feet.
The wharf was lined with the fair daughters of
the City of Oikes, who evinced a lively interest in the
success of the new-born Fire Department, and many
of whom were “true firemen” in every sense of the
word. 13 ‘ 1 • ‘
After various other tests of the power snd capacity
of the Stonewall, the Committee expressed them
selves highly gratified at the result, and the Stone
wall passed from the Deportment of Savannah to that
of Bainbridge by the following report of the Commit
tee:
To the Mayor and Aldermen of the City of Bainbridge:
Your Committee appointed for the purpose of ex
amining the Stonewall fire engine, snd witnessing a
test of her power and to report tho same, beg leave
to report as follows : .
First, Tnat they find the engine in good—almost
per eet—oider, and ready for efficient service.
Second, The test that waj made of the power or

THE BALL.
After tbo tedious and varied exercises of the day
and the enjoyment of the unbounded hospitalities of
the citizens, who with open doors and warm hearts
welcomed the firemen, snd the needful re3t at Sl.aron
Boose, the merry strains of music called the ttrp-
sichore&ns; together at 10 o’clock, and from that hour
until early dawn youth sod p'.oasure met and chased
the golden hours with flying feet. So much l>veli-
ness, wit afid beauty, we venture (he assertion, never
before a-sembled in the limited space of a ball room
While the crowd were busy tripping the light fan
tastic toe an alarm of fire was sounded, which carried
away tho un-gallant’’ firemen, who 1 ft their partners
and went to the scene if excitement. Kepart bad it
that 0. O’N raised the alarm in order to get the
hand of a young lady for the dance. Wiiu what
truth this aeserion was made we are unable to state.
The fire, which was found to bo a number of empty
boxes, was speedily extinguished, the engine proving
O. K. and the boys on the alert.
Thursiay was spent in eoj >jiog the sociable cour
tesies, rides, walks, and harmless flirtations with tho
girls, snd that repose made necessary by a fatiguing
trip and a day’s excitement.
THE BKTURN.
At 10 o’clock Thursday night the Stonewall com
pany assembled at the betel, and havieg provided
themselves with carriages, conve; o J the Savannah
boys to the train, a number of Udies being present to
bid good-bje.
The parting was as warm and full of feeling as the
meeting, and after three cheers for the ladies, three
for the citizens, and three for Stonewall Nj. 11 the
train moved off, beating kindly recollections of
pleasant hours spent in our young sister city.
To the kindness of conductors J. C. Tyson cn the
upward, and O. W. Jackson, on the downward trip,
the delegation is indebted for a large portion of the
pleasare of the visit to Bainbridge, and a Committee
was appointed to supgC9t snitable resolutions, ex
pressing the sense of the delegation.
Altogether the visit has been one which cannot fail
to cement in still closer union the interests of the
Forrest Oitv with those of her young sisters of the
Oaks.

Information Docket —Under this head appeared
Barnard Smith, to answer the chargaof keeping Ills
bar room open on Snnday. Two policemen testified
that It was open, snd that several white and colored
men were seen inside, some of them drinking. The
accused summ-.ned three negroes to prove the con
trary, but their testimony damaged his case and he
was fined twenty dollars and costs.
James Burke, who it appears has been selling li
quor since January without a.licente, although three
times notified to procure cne, was arraigned yester
day to show c mse why he should mt contribute a
little money to the city for not obeying its ordi
nances. He had no excuse, and the Marshal was or
dered to enforce the fine of fifty dollars and costs
with an execution forthwith.
The fine docket was next called, and with it
appeared a country darkey who aingulaily
enough know all the “onHerd b’hoya” in town, and
helped somo of them to attack an old colored man
and his son. drawing and flourishing a knife and pis
tol himself the while. The old man gave a “mixed
up affair” statement of the difficulty, aud concluded
with: “The idee of sich sconndere.a as them striking
mel I was born in this , city, I was, aud the idee of
them c juntry forin ecounderels taking me; the
idee of sich s thing,” and then subsided with a con
temptuous snipping of his fingers.
Hall’s pistol was confiscated aud he fined ten dol
lars, which be could pay or else work in tbc chain
gang for thirty days.
Joe Simmons, an innocent-looking darkey, was
brought RP t° answer the charge of stealing some
flour sacks from Mr. Wm. Campbell. The evidence
proved nothing, and the case was dismissed.
A hog-taced negro womao, by aognomen Elizabeth,
told a pitious tale about Bob Smith having asked her
to go co the circus with him, and when she consented
snd got there, he, Instead of acting the gentleman
and taking her in, asssalted and tore her dress. A

Bob was visibly affected at this demonstration, and,
at the suggestion of His Honor, willingly consented
to stone for his offense by working for the city for
thirty days in default of the ten dollars, for which he
was asked to oil the machinery of the city.

Savannah Market.
omoE or thr News and Herald,)
Savannah, May 16-6 P. M. j
Cotton.—The market opened to-day firm, bat
quiet. Advices from Liverpool and New York belug
favorable caused some inquiry, bat sales have not
been largo on account of the small stock and the firm
ness on tne part of holdora, who think tbat cotton
will, in a short time, command much higher rates.
When we look at the small stocks at all ports of Amer
ica, wc are of the oDiuion that holders are correct iu
their ideas, from the fact that the stock in this coun
try is not taffluent to carry spinners through until
the new crop comes in. It is generally thought that
spinners in this section will have to import ere this
season is over.
The maiket closed fi.m with advancing tendency.
The Bales to-day have been about 200 bales, on a ba
sis of 30K@31c for middling, bnt much higher prices
are generally asked, say 31@31>£c for middling,
with light offering.
The receipts to-day amount to 319 bales.

The demand is fair and stocks arc fuller, some lots
having been ordered for the regular trade. We renew
our quotations: Northern super, $10 50®11,50; tx-
