Gen. Cox’s Letter on Negro Suffrage.
As everything pertaining to this perplexing
and momentous question is of vital interest to
onr citizens at this time, we devote a large
portion of our space to the views of one of the
ablest soldiers and statesmen of Ohio. Gen.
Cox is the popular gubernatorial candidate of
the Republican party of Ohio, and will doubt
less be elected by a large majority. We have
not space to comment upon the lengthy letter,
but feel sure that a careful perusal of it will
satisfy the conservative portion of our people
that the people of the North are not all insane
yet. There is a spirit of manly candor, inde
pendence and true dignity pervading the pun
gent document which we admire, and the
writer throughout breathes a noble determina
tion to support President Johnson at all haz
ards. As it is our purpose to present every
variety of opinion on this great National
problem, we commend Gen. Cox’s letter to
our readers.
“THE CRY IS, STILL THEY COME.”
ARRIVAL 0V A “ NEW STEAMER." ,
The new and tine light draft side-wheel iron
steamer W. G. Gibbooff,intended to connect with
Albany and Gulf Road at Doctortown, arrived at
her wharf at 9 o'clock yesterday morning, having
made tbe passage from Wilmington, Del., to tbis
port in four days.
Her dimensions are as follows: Length, 155 feet;
breadth of beam, 25 feet; kneed throughout, with
iron sides and bottom of 5-16 inch iron.
The lower deck is clear fore and aft, and will
carry 1,000 bales of cotton. Her accommoda
tions for passengers are ample. She has two in
clined high-pressure engines, cylinders 20 inches
in diameter, stroke of piston 6 feet.
The W. G. Gibbons was built by the celebrated
builders, Messrs. Pusey, Jones & Co., of Wil-
mingtoD, Delaware, and named after one of the
firm. All her officers ate favorably known by
the business men of this city, vtz : Thomas N.
Philpot, Captain; W. B. Ferr, Clerk; George A.
Nieoll, Engineer; John L. Roumillat, late Agent
of the Charleston and Savannah Railroad, Agent
on Wharf; Erwin & Hardee, Owners and Agents-
Steamer General Herr?.
The agents of this popular boat having been
requested by a number of her patrons to de'
tain her until evening for the purpose of allow
ing them to complete business arrangements,
have kindly consented to do so, and have
changed the hour of departure until 8 P. M.
As she carries the U. S. mail, our readers will
be further pleased, as it will afford them until
6 o’clock, P. M., to get their Augusta corres
pondence into the Post Office. In doing this,
Messrs. C. L. Colby & Co. simply vindicate
what we have often before expressed in these
columns, their willingness at all times to ac
commodate the public even though their own
interests might not be benefited. We are
confident, however, that this act of public
courtesy by one of the most enterprising firms
in our city, will be fully appreciated by our
people.
Arrival of the St. Helbna.—Last evening
the St. Helena, Capt. F. J. Ceroopely, arrived at
this port from Hilton Head. This steamer was
formerly the Gen Beauregard, under the com
mand of Capt Ceroopely. She has been thorough
ly repaired and refitted in every particular, and
is now a first class vessel, and we a r e happy to
peroeive that our old friend, Capt. Ceroopely, is
still in command of her. The St. Helena is a
government boat and belongs to Gen, Saxton’s
department, and will be employed to ply between
this city and the islands to the South. She is ad
mirably calculated for this purpose, as her ac
commodations; for passengers are good, and her
capacity for freight ample for the service.
For Acqcsta.—The steamers Helen, Captain
Reilly, and General Sheploy, Captain Morse, de
parted yesterday for Augusta, with a number of
passengers and heavy freights
This morning the steamer General BerTy, Cap
tain Henry, will leave for Augusta. She has fine
state-room accommodations, and is known to be
a fast steamer.
The mails for New York per steamer Ne
vada will close this morning at 10£ o’clock.
A circular of importance from Provost Marshal
Sain’l Cowdrey appears in our paper this morning
which is of interest to those of our citizens who
desire to take the Amnesty Oath.
Humanity’s -Appeal.
Help tlie Widow !
The undersigned, a Committee of the Abra
ham’s Home for poor and worthy widows, make
this appeal to the benevolence of tbis commUflffty.
Tbe Home is a permanent charity of the city,
and before the war was self-sustaining. Now it
is without any available means of support. It
contains thirty widows from 60 to 90 years of
age. They have been selected for their good
character and entire dependence. They have no
relatives to whom they can look for help.
For six months they aave been amply supplied
by the government through the military com
manding at tbis post. Now this source of sup
ply fails. What is to be done V We cannot—we
must not see them starve ! Humanity forbids it.
Yet without help they must starve.
We appeal to all the people residing in Savan
nah. and to the officers and soldiers, to aid us in
supporting these aged widows. Some of our
merchants have perishable artioles which would
be of great use. They might be sent directly to
tbe Home, corner of Broughton and East Broad
streets.
There are some subscribers who have not paid.
Let them remember ibat this is tbe hoar of need.
We leave this paper at the newspaper offices
for snbscriptions of money or food. Articles of
food ov money may be sent to any member of the
Committee. God has said: “Thou shalt not
harden thy heart or shat thy hand from thy poor
brother.” Let not this call be disregarded.

equal to more than $9,000,000 of greenbacks,
which amount will be increased to over $10,000,-
000 by the proceeds of the rosin, turpentine, cot
ton and iron recently sold for ourroncy. This is

per.—-V, Y. Tribune.

per day to that figure until November next.
