savannah mmim SAVANNAH: FRIDAY MORNING, JFLY 7. Disgracf.i'ci.—the conduct of those sold iers, citizens, and vicious littlg rascals that interfered with the colored firemen on the 4th of July. We have neither time nor sphce to give any details, and as we have heard but one side we refrain from making any further re marks. Whoever was to blame, it was morti fying to see intelligent men standing by as passive spectators, while boys and rowdies of a larger growth forcibly seized a fire engine and drove off the unarmed members with a crowd of one hundred times their number; and then, after satiating themselves with this kind of manly sport, to abandon the engine in a mud hole, from whence it was removed to the en gine house by the police. We 3aw a crowd of people gathered around a lot of boys who were using the firemen’s hats as footballs in one of the squares, while others satisfied their fun by jumping on to the hats. These firemen’s hats cost something like eight or ten dollars apiece, and no man but a coward would be guilty of committing such a contemptible act. Dramatic. — The Sweatnam Troupe are drawing crowded and delighted audiences night ly at the Theatre, and their performances are received with tremendous applause. La Belle Louise is winning the golden opinion of all by her sprightly itrfjiersonations, and as a protean actress she has few superiors in the stock dram atic companies. We were surprised to witness such excellent acting in so many versatile characters by Mr. Sweatnam. The National Tableaux on the evening <Jf July 4th, was ap propriate and beautiful, and we hope the Manager will give us more of the same artistic scenes. Manager Sweatnam has worked hard and richly deserves the pecuniary harvest he is reaping. Last evening, as the steamship Salvor was nearing the wharf, she ran afoul of the steamer Island City, lying at the foot of Abercorn sf., carrying away a portion of the latter steamer's paddle-box. The damage is sli ght. Arrival of Paroled Prisoners.—Last evening the steamship Salvor, Capt. Chices- ter, from Portress Monroe, arrived at this port with 418 paroled Confederate prisoners.— These men are from Florida, Alabama, Geor gia and Louisiana. They embarked at New port News, and came via Fortress Monroe, and have had a fine passage. Tub Weather.—Yesterday was a warm day, the atmosphere being heavy and dull, but in the afternoon a slight breeze spiung up from the south, which was quite refreshing. At 8 o’clock in the morning, th 1 thermometer stood at 86 de grees in the shade ; at 2 p. m. at 02 degrees, and lUointhesun, and at 6 p m., at 88 degrees.— Although the mercury did not show a very high range, the heat was very oppressive, and was felt more than any previous day ot the season. We are indebted to Mr. J. T. Howland for late Augusta, Macon and Atlanta paper s. A grand opportunity is offered to the public to Becure bargains in Dry Goods, Groceries and Fur niture, to-day, at the auction sale of Geo. W Wylly, which will take place at 10 o’clock. The sale is positive, and the goods will be sold to the highest bidder. Tiie steamer Amazon will sail for Augusta at 4 o’clock Saturday afternoon. Passengers are requested to be on board at that time. This will probably be the last trip of the Ama- zen np the river, as the low stage of water will prevent her‘ascending again for several weeks.

Several delegations of commercial men from New York have been here to-day in consultation with the Secreiary of the Treasury and Solicitor Jordan with reference to the frauds committed upon the government in the matter of under val uations of importations. The facts presented prove that the most extensive frauds have been and are now being porpetrutatod. The subject bae absorbed the attention of the Solicitor for several days, and his action is likely to cause prominent personages to ooma to grief HILTON HEAD INTELLIGENCE- PORT or Port Roval, July 3d, 1865.

The reconstruction of the Southern railroads, will soon be an important matter of considera tion, Whether it be national government, the State government, or corporations, somebody will restore the commerce and intercourse of the country; and on their restoration depends most of the future harmony, if not stability of the na tion. For the last four years Southern railroad companies have had little iron and scarcely any engineers or men available for reconstruction.— The cash and credit of these companies are like wise almost completely gone. We presume that as the result of this state of things, many oi the Southern railroad rompanies will soon be in tne market for loans to finish their roads and restore them to usefulness. We think they should be met with great liberality on the part of Northern capitalists not merely because the full use of these roads is greatly’ needed (a consideration which is not of itselt’very apt to bring money) but because, in our opinion, such loans will be safe and profitable. Whenever, therefore, the Southern railroads shall ask for aid, Northern capital should be free ly furnished; especially as the profits of Southern commerce must necessarily accrue to Norlhern merchants. The future system of Southern railroads is as follows Great Southern Railroad Line. LOCAL MATTERS. First Provo*! Court—J udge Parsons Presiding’. Thursday, July 6, 1865. James Green vs. Capt S. S.

Sup’t W. and M Sumter, S. C., Jnne28, 1865. S. S. Solomons, Esq.: Dear Sir : As a matter of public interest I would state the following facts. If you seejfit yon can allude to them publicly. The work of rebuilding the Wilmington and Manchester Railroad is progressing rapidly. Trains of cars will pass from Kingsville (its junction with the South Carolina Railroad) to Wilming ton, N. C-, by August 15tb, 1865. From Wil mington North there iamow daily connection. Trains are now run on tnis road semi-weekly. They will be increased to daily as the business justifies. Great want of mail facilities is felt here. I could carry a mail semi-weekly from Little Pee Dee to Kingsville, 97 miles, now.— This mail could reach this road at Florence from Charleston, via Northeastern Railroad. The Cheraw and Darlington road connecting at Florence, Ls now open to Cheraw. An ex amination of the map will show this is a very large scope of country which could now be sup plied with mails. I will post you on railroad matters as they transpire. Your obedient servant, Henry M. Drake, Gen’l Sup’t. Northeastern Railroad.—We are pleased to see by a notice which appears in another column, that the operations of this Road are to be resumed on the 10th inst. From what we can learn its officers have made the most stren uous efforts to get it, as soon as possible, in a shape which would enable them to furnish some facilities toeur community, and although these must for tbe present be extended under many disadvantages, nevertheless they will be exceedingly acceptable. At Florence, connections will be made with the trains for KingsviUe and Cheraw, at ortfce placing us in easy communication with points hitherto almost inaccessible. To the people of Colnmbia the connection to Kingsville will present peculiar attractions at this time. We hope our Postmaster will not lost sight of this opportunity for establishing mail com munication with the portion of the State through which this line passes.—Charleston Courier, 2d inst. promptly to the Bureau of Military Jus tice all proceedings of Courts Martial, Military Commissions, and Courts of In quiry, together with the orders promul gating decision thereon.

To carry out the foregoing para graph, all officers within the Department authorized to appoint Courts Martial, Military Commissions or Courts of In quiry, will on the 27th of each month, send to the Judge' Advocate of the De partment, two reports.

The fines will be paid to the Chief Officer of the Quartermaster’s Depart ment at the place where the prisoner may be, and no other person is authorized to receive them. Such fines must not be applied to any purpose, but the officer receiving them will forthwith remit the amounts to the Adjutant General of the Army, at Washington, with the names of prisoners who paid them, and the num ber of the order promulgating the pro ceedings.
