SaVaMRKPUBIjIO .'SAVANNAH: THURSDAY MOBNIBifi) AtJG’T IT. THE FLORIDA TRADE. A New Steamer for the Florida Line. The steamer Helen Getty, Capt Ingra ham, arrived from Philadelphia yesterday morning, having sailed from the city of Brotherly Love on Saturday, the 12th inst. She was formerly the steamer St. Johns, and plyed between this city and Palatka, Floride. Having been thoroughly over hauled and refitted in Philadelphia, she will now resume her position on the Florida Line. Another steamer called the “Rockland,” now at Charleston, will be brought over to run upon the same line as soon as sufficient trade will war rant the increased transportation. These boats are owned by E. H. Souder & Co., of Philadelphia, and Mr. L. S. Bennett, one of the oldest and most highly es teemed Union citizens of this city, is the Savannah Agent for this promising line, which bids fair to bestow a rich reward upon the enterprising house that liavere- opened this route. Iu past years there was great competition between Savannah and Charleston to secure to themselves the exclusive trade with Florida—the ex istence of an evident jealousy which will go far towards showing the intrinsic bene fits which grew out of that trade. Sa vannah, on account of her juxtaposition, the superiority of her steamers, and the higher nautical skill displayed by their officers, and withal the better accommo dations secured to the numbers of pas sengers going to and from Florida, ac quired a decided advantage over her sister city, and we are assured from this new evidence of vitality, that the metropolis of Georgia will not just yet permit Charleston to outstrip her in business sagacity. For the past four years there has been, of course, a total suspension of this trade, and our far-sighted merchants will welcome with joy the re-establish-* ment of a line of steamers, heralding as it does a permanent and prosperous revival of the old trade. It is of vital importance to the commercial interests of our city that Savannah should not only retain her former maritime prestige, but she must surpass it, and nothing will so speedily bring about the wonted activity in all our business circles, than the rapid resump tion and encouragement of the Florida trade. Without desiring to accuse our Charles ton neighbors of presumption because of their strenuous and artful efforts to se cure and, if possible, control the exten sive and remunerative trade that Florida promises to bestow.upon the enterprising capitalists who seek to develope her re sources, we must modestly assure our ambitious Charlestonians that we have a strong commercial, financial, political, social and moral foothold upon the af fections as well as the pockets of the Floridians. We are first in the field, have planted our commercial batteries, and Charleston has not big enough guns to drive us from the field. In commerce as well as in war might very often makes light, and as our merchants have the might to offer Florida all the advantages superior to those of Charleston, the prospects look fair for our merchants enjoying, for a time at least, almost exclusive con trol of the trade to the lower coast. We need not now recur to the dire misfortunes which since the first hostile gun boomed against the walls of Sumter have settled over the once proud, rich, arrogant and aristocratic metropolis of South Carolina, for the picture is too sad to be retouched by our pen. Our city stands to-day free from the calami ties of war, not a shot of friend or foe ever whistling over its walls, while in Charleston what the savage “fire-king” did not demolish, the fearful messengers of war finished. Savannah has all of her commodious warehouses thrown open for trade, her industrial and mechanical pursuits of all kinds are daily being resurrected, until to-day we hear the hum of industry sending forth its first feeble notes since the tocsin of civil war drown ed the ring of the honest anvil, silenced the din of trade in our once busy marts, and beat the ploughshare and other im plements of peace, plenty, and pros perity, into instruments Of cruel war. God be praised for the blessed change, and may we so conduct ourselves as good, honest, obedient, loyal and law-loving citizens,- that the day may soon dawn when it shall not be necessary for a bayo net to glisten in our streets, or the shrill notes of the bugle, with the roll of the drum and the tramp of armed men, to remind us that martial law still exists, and that we live in a military encamp ment. Let us but.act the part of sensi ble men, fall into the miens miens new order of things, and we may depend upon Georgia wheeling into the Union line and thereby regain more than she has ever lost. Success to the Florida line and our coastwise trade. Information Wanted.—By reference to. the advertisement of Mr. Wm. B. Davis, it will be seen that he desires information ot his son, Levi N. Davis, who was a member of Company K, 47th Georgia Regiment. When last heard from he was in a hospital at Columbia, S. C. Any in formation in relation to this young man will be vsratefully received by bis parents. s ANOTHER VIOLENT OALE. SAVANNAH DAILY REPUBLICAN V THURSDAY MORNING, AUGUST 17, 1865. rflftfcfrv - -—mmi Savage Contest Between Elements. the A Portion of StoMari’s Huge Ui- roofei. * It has been our mission of late to record the effeots of several very violent thunderstorms, but not until yesterday was it reserved for us to chronicle the resalts of one of the most furioaB gales that has swept over our city sinoe the fear- tul tornado of 1854. .Shortly after three o’clock yesterday afternoon, the son gradually vanished from sight behind a group of fleecy clouds, whioh soon began to darken into portentous shapes and colors, and went drifting about in a very in- differentjmanner, while “Old Boreas.” descending from his throne, began to “raise merry Ned” with all ephemeral things here below, sending straw hats and summer caps high in the air, slamming shutters to and fro in a frightful manner, fluttering and tearing every American ensign that dare float its starry folds, lifting up hoop skirts in a very indeoorous manner, as if to tempt some disciple of Horace Greeley to prose cute the physiological researches of this sage lavan recently began, and give us as the result of bis observations another dissertation on ankles. Things were generally flying through the air in a most promiscuous manner, and we saw several nnmentionable feminine garments mounted high in the air, chasing a pair of empty breeches down Bay street, followed by a horse, (a clothes horse it appeared to be,) for the animal was very close to the fugitive aud demoralized apparel. The con test was only ended by the combatants getting into clothes (dose) quarters, and finally hang* ing eaoh other over the telegraph line, where they fought desperately, until -engulphed and lost from sight forever by a gust in the air aud an electric shock. While the lightning flashed and the thunder roared, pedestrians ran here, dogs ran there and th9 market lonngeis fled— they knew not where, the rain descended in tor rents, depopulated the streets, driving man and beast to seek shelter from the pitiless storm and silencing the bustle'and confusion of hurrying, sweltering humanity, changed the scene into one grand chaos and war of the elements. Clap after clap of the m<j|t terrific thunder burst in almost deafening tones over our city, while the wind roared, the min poured, and the lightning danced in the frowning firmament, The air was filled with fragments of lightwood, shingles, branches of trees,leaves, and scraps of paper which were whirling in dangerous and fantastic eddies in many places. The most serious destruction to property occurred on the north side of Bay street, between Bull and Drayton streets, where the eastern end of the large four-story brick where- house, known as Stoddard's Range, was com pletely unroofed by the gale. The corner build ing, which was occupied by Messrs. Edward Pad- elford & Jones, J. Leavy and W. C. ©’Driscoll, was badly gutted by the gale, and during the storm was not safe to inhabit. The young tor nado first gave vent to its spite by blowing in several of the windows fronting on the river, loliowed soon after by a desperate charge on the eaves of the building and tearing up with fear ful velocity several hundred yards of tin roofing. To form some slight conception of the furry of this gale, we Will inform our readers that after the storm had subsided, we visited the ruins and found Bay street and Drayton street literally filled with rafters, cross beams, and other timber which had been carried across the street by the wind. The tin which was torn from the roof was rolled up in compact shape and sent hurling through the air a distance of nearly two hundred feet, where it struck th® stone wall leading down to the bluff, which checked its dangerous course and lodged it safely in the corner, where our citizens can view it to-day. It will hardly seem credible, but, to gratify onr curiosity, we hired a couple of colored men to weigh two of the heaviest pieces of timber that were blown into Drayton street, a distance of four hundred feet from the roof, and on a pair of Fairbanks’ scales, they weighed eighty-five and one hundred and eight pounds each. These delicate splinters struck the door of Adams & Co’s Express Office, shattering the glass and woodwork and half demolished a hanging sign at the corner of Drayton and Bay streets. It is impossible to estimate the damage done our beautiful shade trees, but we regret to state that sud havoc was made with hundreds of our noblest trees, and there is not a street or square in our city whose residents are not called upon to mourn the loss of one or more trees. A walk through our streets will convince the spectator that we experienced no gentle zephyr yesterday. It is estimated that the damage to Stoddard’s Range will amount to nearly $2,500. The occupants sustained no injury to their stock, but their books and counting room furniture were somewhat injured by the sudden and unceremonious visit of wind, water, mortar, bricks, laths and other building materials. X SOUTHERN SUNSET. The Btorm having ceased at 5 o’clock, we wended our way up to the roof of the lofty build ing amid the wreck and debris that were visible on all sides, and after running the gauntlet of a shower bath, we finally reached the top of the range, from which ,we beheld one of the most magnificent natural panoramas that could be unfolded to an appreciative spectator* The atmosphere was very clear and was puri fied by rain until it was really refreshing to snuff the fresh air. Looking up th8 Savan nah river, the silvery lines were threading off in a serpentine course, until lost in the dis* tance in the bright green verdure which car peted the earth as far as the eye could reach. In the foreground were eight staunch steamships moored to the wharves like leviathans of the deep, while at intervals were scattered brigs, sohooners, barques, and sloops. Crowds of negroes were on the wharves, many of them busily engaged in loading eotton, while others were employed in loading drays with tons of merchandize of every descrip tion just landed from the North. Lifting onr head from this busy and animated scene to view the oharms of a magnificent sunset, we were lost to earthly thoughts, and for half an (hour invol untarily surrendered onrselvei to oommnne awhile with natare. Off to the 'West the heavens were clear and full of radiant, oheorful light that radiated from the hidden sun, and permeated the amber colored clouds that were momentarily changing their tints as they glided softly away, like phantom spirits, to be followed by others less gorgeous and of varied forms. In the West for a long distance the sky wag clear and lucid, presenting just such a Scene as one might expect to revel in beneath fair Italia’s skies, at the side of Como’s plaoid bosom. In the centre of the horizon, direotly in front of the rapidly receding snn, deep blue clouds hang like a veil of sapphire, the lower fringe of which dipped i*to the yellow sunlight until it wore a golden border. To the right and left, the sun’s declining rays peered through the almost im penetrable mist, eending a halo' of bright golden light penetrating in every direction,until the tout ensemble was magnificent beyond all powers of human description, resembling a display of the aurora borealis. While these variegated tints; "were fading from view os if peering into gigantic kaleidoscope, the clouds were rapidly transformed into phantom shapes, while on the verge of the horizon a broad expanse of the softest tint of pink light mingled its hglo with the deep emerald that lined the river’* bank. On the bosom of the river ware clearly refleeted all these rainbow colors, together with the pictur esque clouds, some fleecy, others dismal and frowning, and more ealm and ethereal,flitting off on their unknown and mysterious mission, guided by the same unseen hand which bat an honr before bade the wrathful storm to gather, the lightning to flash, the thnnder to peal and the rain to flow. As the dull shades of twilight began slowly to draw around the horizon* there was a commotion in the heavens,whioh for a while appeared like a battle in the clouds, the dark and threatening clouds striving to drive out the brighter and more fleecy ones. At six o’clook the seene was one of real grandeur, presenting one of the most magnificent tableaux of nature that ever rested beneath a Southern sky. At this time the West began to glow until it was one mass of livid flame, the sun’s disk hid from view, while from behind the cloudy veil a perfect shower of daziling light fell in golden tresse-, standing out in indescribable contrast with the purple and bine streaks. A final look, and we saw that the* contest of the elouds was over, for the whole hea vens were blended in harmonious shades, the bright clouds gaining the mastery, had sent their rays of victorious light streaming over the revivified land. It was a picture of the return of peace among the elements which had so long been at war with each other, and the scene will live long in the memory of those who witnessed it from our lofty position. Got the Measels—The tallow candle sticks on Bull and other streets, whose light can be hid under a pint measure any night. We saw several pedestrians en deavoring the other evening to tell the time by their watches, but after several ineffectual efforts the attempt was aban doned, and a piece of chalk being sub stituted, the party left singing “There’s a light in the window for me,” and praises for the Gas Light Company. How about the order from Post Head quarters, Messrs. Gas Company, ordering the streets of Savannah to be lighted ? Is the contract to be annulled ? Y. _ lot of . always _ surviving double pain born of fond we heard of the of this city.
