the many rumors circulated in the face of the
denial by the Mayor and physicians of this city,
it is deemed necessary to restate the statement
that there is no yellow fever here, nor ha3 there

health of the city is unprecedentedly good; ru
mors to the contrary are wholly gratuitous, and
are no doubt put in circulation by parties whose
interests are to injure the trade of Savannah.

Count Renineat, French minister, declares

A Banter From Bonner.—Referring to Gold
smith's Maid’s recent extraordinary trot, the
New York Ledger says that if she had trotted a
mile in 2:17 it would leave her behind Dexter,
for he trotted in the presence of 10,000 people
in 2:16, although beaten in that race by a run
ning horse, who made it in 2:15, and therefore
got tho reoord. He offers to pay $100,000 for
a horso which will beat Dexter’s feat of a year
ago, trotting a mile in 2:21 ^ with a road wagon
and driver weighing 319 pounds behind him.
If tho owner of that horso deoline3 to sell him,
Bonner will give $10,000 for the pleasure of
seeing the feat performed.
A good story is told of Marshal McMahon
when a colonel. During a parade he had an al
tercation with an officer in tho ranks who refused
to obey him. McMahon finally threatened the
offender, and the latter drawing a pistol, took
deliberate aim and fired. Fortunately the cap
snapped. Without the slightest sign of fear,
cool and impassible, McMahon said, “give that
man fifteen days in the guard house, for having
his arms out of order 1”
Personal.—In a late allusion to W. H. Tison,
Esq., the senior of the firm of Tison & Gordon,
Savannah, we stated he was born in Florida.
This was a mistake, as that gentleman is a na
tive of Glynn county, and began his mercantile
life as a clerk in this city. While here, in 1835,
he enlisted with the Macon Volunteers and
served through the Florida war with them- Mr.
Tison moved to Savannah in 1852, and has been
engaged in business there ever since. His es
teemed partner is the son of Coh W. W. Gor
don, the first President of the Central Railroad.
The Election Yesterday.—The election for
Senator yesterday was like the handle on a skil
let—a one-sided affair. The Rads, were thor
oughly demoralized. In nominating old Mr.
Tiniey (a life-long Democrat) the darkies saw
a small rat trap filled with large sized mice, and
didn’t go for the mite of cheese in it It will be
seen that Mr. Tiniey was not in the race at all,
and we hope he will take the first opportunity
of making affidavit to the fact, and of washing
his hands of tho bad company he has been in,
and get back into respectable society again.
We are willing to forgive the old man if he will
do that and promise not to do so any more. The
idea of a native of Sonth Carolina and an old
Georgian like he is being found hobnobbing
with such a set Is preposterous. It can’t stick.
Bat the election here yesterday was a very
qniet and peaoeable affair. The Rads, didn’t
rally two hours before day, as is their custom,
and take possession of the polls, and they didn’t
rally at any time, or during the whole day.
The Democrats had the polls from the begin
ning, and made a clean shucking of the whole
thing. It no donbt excited the disgust of Mr.
Tiniey to see leading Radicals working hard for
Col. Simmons all day. And it was fanny.
The following is the offioial vote of the city
—2173 votes being polled:
Thos. J. Simmons 1,698
James Tiniey 475
Simmons’ majority .....1,223
We have unofficial returns from Rutland dis
trict of this county, in winch Mr. Tiniey re
sides, which give the vote: Simmons 43; Tin-
ley 17.
Telegrams from Forsyth and Barnesville, re
ceived yesterday afternoon, Bhow that the elec
tion in Monroe and Pike counties went as it did
in Bibb—all one way. At 5 o’clock p. si. at
Forsyth 405 votes had been polled—all for
Simmons.
At Barnesville the vote stood: Simmons 255;
Tiniey 66.
To sum it all up,Mr. Tiniey Is the worst beat
en man that ever aspired to office in Middle
Georgia
Something of Interest to Fashionable
Women.
From the New York Times. ]
The shoe worn by the young woman of the
period is surely one of the most abominable
contrivances ever brought into vogue by the
caprice of the sex. What need to describe it?
Do we not know the absurdity of its construc
tion, and how ingeniously it has been designed
for the destruction of comfort, and ease, and
grace in walking, and also of all semblance to
areal woman’s foot? When it first camointo
fashion tho ladies wero told by a few sensible
men that to put their feet into a machine with a
toe like a bird’s biH, and a heel three inches
high brought forward under the instep, would
insure suffering and deformity.
But the dear creatures, in their irresistible
way, resented this interference with their pre
rogative of self torture and self caricature,
and asked, “Would you have us look like dow
dies, with broad toes and low heels, and all
that ?" “ all that” meaning heels where na
ture intended they should be. The plea was
unanswerable. But the predicted consequences
have come. Ladies’ shoe makers, certain
truthful ones, tell us what observation also re
veals,that there is hardly a young woman now
who regards herself at all fashionable who has not
bnnions.fcallosities, corns and enlarged joints;
and that tho crop of these ornaments developed
within the last four or five years is aston
ishing and pitiful. The worst of it is, that
there appears to be no prospect of relieif ex
cept a tnm in the whirligig of fashion, and
that there are no exceptions to the rule of
torture and deformity. For the good and sens
ible of tho sex immolate themselves with the
foolish and the frivolous. No degree of sense,
or independence, or stability of character seems
to absolve any woman who has the charm of
womanhood about her from tho slavery of fash
ion, at whatever sacrifice of time, comfort,
money or health. Suffrage! right to hold office!
Show us first the woman who has independence,
and sense, and taste enough to dress attractively,
and yet to walk down Fifth avenue wearing an
unfashionable bonnet, or in a shoe which does
not destroy both her comfort and her her gait.
Dead Before Battle.—The SpriDgfield Re
publican, the leading Radical organ in New
England, echoes the word3 of Wendell Phillips,
that the “Radical partyi3 dead.” Listen to it:
Tho Republican party is marching to a Big
Bethel feast. Too many Butlers, loo many
Simon Camerons, too many Mortons and
Chandlers, too much stealing and land grabbing
have killed it; it is dead before it goe3 into
battle.
A girl of only 17-years located a farm in
Kansas three years ago. The land was perfectly
wild and she employed no male help, but her
success has been such that on Tuesday la3t she
was offered for her farm a sum ten times the
amount sho paid for it. Sho refused the offer
and says that in five years more she will retire
to the East and live on the interest of her pro
perty.

Summoned to a high and holy work—that of pre

business and pleasures, joys and sorrows of life—
he will call to his assistance the best educators of
the country, and address himself to the task with
all the zeal and industry that he can cbmm&nd.
Should time, whose verdict we woo, demonstrate
that he cannot preside with dignity and success—
that he is incapable of imparting instruction—that
he is not in the proper place—that Andrew Famale
College does not return a substantial equivalent to
its patrons—the President will abandon the enter
prise and refund all damages religiously assessed.
Parents and guardians wishing to educate girls

ANNOUNCEMENT EXTRAORDINARY!
A little less than one year ago, when this grand
enterprise was organized In Atlanta, Georgia, many
sagacious people predicted failure in its infancy;
but the unprecedented suocess crowning it every
where it has been, has satisfied them of the error
of their judgment. No exhibition on the road has
given greater satisfaction, and none have achieved
as great a degree of popularity. Neither labor nor
money has been spared to make it the most expen
sive and choice exhibition on the road, and the
almost daily tremendous audiences applauding the
feats of the different artists, have served to stimu
late the Management to even greater efforts.
Thronghont the Middle States and New England,
the Dominions of New Brunswick, Nova Scotia,
Prince Edward Island. Cape Breton and Newfound
land, there has been bat one voice from the press
and public as to the intrinsic merits of this mam
moth enterprise. Mesers. WOOTEN & HAIGHT
feel an excusable pride in thus referring to their
repeated triumphs and praise of the world which
has but one verdict as to the lngh character and
superiority of this first-class arenio and xoological
combination.
