SAVANNAH DAILY REPUBLICAN. FRIDAY MORNING. AUGUST 18. 1865. mm MW SAVANNAH: filDAY MORNING, ACC'T 18. Public Nuisances that should be Aba- ted. A JUVENILE ASYLUM WANTED. ' Our attention lias been called by seve ral of our citizens to the large pool of "water which invariably collects after every violent rain-storm in Pulaski Square, directly opposite the half finished Presbyterian Church, the erection of which was suspended on account of the war. Within the last few days quite a large body of water has accumulated at this point, and yesterday the residents in that vicinity were grossly shocked to witness a couple of ignorant colored boys, (old enough to know to know a great deal better,) stark naked, deliberately bathing ,in this pool of water. We regret that ■ o.ur military guards were not pas sing at the time in order to administer such a severe flagellation as these vicious offenders against common decency de served for their crime, The youth, white or black, fourteen years of age, who has not' intelligence enough to know what constitutes the common rudiments of moral chastity, should be taught in a summary manner. We desire to invite the attention of our energetic and faith ful Health Officer and Street Commis sioners to this water which, if permitted • to remain, will soon become stagnant and ■ produce a contagious malaria. The Sam i' tary condition of this locality would be greatly benefited and improved by hav- ■ ing a dozen cart-loads of sand or dirt de- • posited in this cavity. This would prevent the nuisance, and render the thoroughfare far more attractive to pas sers-by. as well as conferring a great blessing on those of our citizens,who re side in that vicinity, and whose children are in the habit, on pleasant days, of in dulging in their childish sports and gam bols near the monument. The next and most disagreeable nuisance, and one which we have before alluded to, is the daily congregating of a lot of idle and dissolute colored boys in John- son square, where, commencing at seven o’clock in the morning and continuing throughout the day, the little rascals pollute the atmosphere with the most in decent shouts of ribaldry. The guests of the Pulaski House, as well as the crowds of ladies whose business require them to pass through this square, have been compelled to listen to this vile pro fanation of the Lord’s name quite long enough, and we trust some action will be taken to punish these juvenile offenders. A JUVENILE BEFOBM SCHOOL WANTED. What we need sadly, and must have for the good and moral interests of society now demand it, is a well estab lished juvenile reformatory institution. The “new order of things” renders this imperatively necessary, for the sudden abolition of that institution which has so long blasted the prosperity of the South, has liberated an immense number of chil- dren.who are now deprived of all moral re straint, and many of them being without the care and protection of parents, are rapidly sowing the seeds of wickedness. While in bondage these children were kept under control and made to behave through the fear of the lash, but now, that this cruel system is forever abol ished, other means more in keeping with the enlightened progress of a Christian land must be adopted to save and redeem these vagrant children from the yawning atfyss of sin into which it strikes us so many are now being precipitated. Why don’t the Freedmen’s Bureau consider ere it is too late this important matter, of such vital importance not on ly to the two populations of the South, but to the intellectual advancement of this great Nation ? To give these igno rant, untutored children, fresh from the chains of slavery, unlicensed liberty to act as they please, -without being held responsible to some moral person and persons of mature judgment, is simply and surely making their freedom a great curse to themselves and to the white race. Something must be done, and right speedily, too, to check this juvenile depravity, and the claims of humanity as well as Christianity bid us to address ourselves in good earnest to the task which lies before us- We trust the anti slavery people of our country, and all sensible and patriotic people, are now advocates of human liberty, will put their shoulder to the wheel, and help forward the grand chariot of human progress and improvement. We can imagine some of the salutations and imprecations perhaps with which our ap peal for the moral elevation of the colored race of the South will be received. “Ohi yes, it is all very well for you, a misera. ble Abolitionist, to clamor now about the necessity for protecting the negroes from the snares that beset mankind, but when the race were happy and contented with their masters you were the first to raise the outcry for their liberation and to denounce the divine institution of slavery as barbarous. Now you have helped to free the niggers, you see the folly and curse of your mad theories; don’t call upon the Southern people to help them live in free dom. You Yankees were not contented to ‘let well enough alone;’ you have come down here, burnt our cities, overrun our country, bringing ruin, woe and desola tion to our people, and in freeing the niggers you have drawn an elephant of pretty good size, yes of almost unman ageable proportions, and now take charge of him, for we will have nothing to do with him.This is what we hear daily; we shall continu.4 to hear it repeated for months, and Ik will be the greeting that these friendly links, suggesting the duty of all Christians North and South, will meet at the hands of a great many. We will not at this time attempt to discuss this simple question which seems so. full of intricate problems to the incredulous opponents of free labor, as we have already digressed from our original subject and far exceeded our alloted space, but this we do say : if there is an elephant, rhinoceros, or other dan gerous animal in the emancipation of the colored race, we must bear in mind that he is loose and liberated in the South and not in the North. What does wis- cLsmimd policy dictate to us, now that it is a settled fact that the negro hence forth and forever is to reside in our midst as a free man ? There is no use of our butting our brains out against the brick wall of stubborn facts which seces sion has built upon the ruins of the once powerful South, for if we are rash enough to attempt this we shall make as good headway as the bull did that undertook to dispute the passage of the locomotive by butting. Let us abide in a proper spirit by the fearful arbitrament which we sought, and do all in our power to make the Freedmen useful members of society, bearing in mind that whoever lifts the black man from the fogs of ignorance in curs a blessing upon the white race. Interior Trade. Our market yesterday morning pre sented quite a lively appearance, sur rounded as it was with wagons and carts bringing produce from the country.— The watermelon season is fast passing away—perhaps prematurely upon some farms, inasmuch as the intensity of the heat has withered up the vines and other wise injured the melons themselves.— We have had them in the greatest profu sion here, and the quantity upon hand even now is immense. Sweet potatoes are also obtainable, but as it is the be* ginning of the season, the supply is not by far as great as it will be next month. Fresh beef is sold to the dealers, as it comes from the country, at 12 cents, wholesale rales. At this reasonable price, notwithstanding the restrictions imposed upon the retail system, they will be able to realize a sufficient per centage, and the wants of the indigent may thereby he supplied. We have had an interview with an in telligent gentleman from Effingham county, who reports the condition of the people in his section, considering the circumstances under which the war has placed them, could not be better than it is, and that there is more real or serious inconvenience occasioned by the want of railroad facilities than anything else.— The people are very anxious to have rail road communications restored with Sa vannah. A considerable quantity of cot* ton is now awaiting the opening of these arteries, the people, many of them, being stripped of horses, mules and wagons, with which to transport their cotton and other articles to market, while others do not feel safe to travel alone with large sums of money, fearing the attack of lawless men. Another Steamer for the Augusta Line.— The stern-wheel steamer Laura, Capt. Edward Miller, from New York, arrived in our waters yesterday morning. She is of exceedingly light draft, and is intended for the ‘Savannah river trade, to ply between this city and Augusta.— The Laura is thoroughly fitted np, and will be placed on the line immediately. Messrs. Erwin & Hardee are the owners and agents of the Laura. See their notice of jthis steamer in another column. From Augusta.—The steamer Helen, Capt. J, K. Reily, arrived yesterday afternoon from Au gusta, which place she left on Wednesday morn- iDg. She Dassed the Gen. Shepley at Bug’s Bar on Wednesday 12 m., tied up, the river being very low she could not proceed further ; passed the new steamer R. H. May, tied up, near the wreck of the.Leesburg, at 2 p. m. same day—could not ascertain why she was tied up. This steamer left Augusta Tuesday at 1 o’clock, p. m. Passed the steamer Berry at Prescot’s Beach at a. m. same day, bound up ; passed steamer Augus ta at Matthew’s Bluff at 6% a. m. Thursday, bound up. The steamer Amazon was at Augusta on Wed nesday last. The Savannah River.—Notwithstanding the recent heavy rains in the low country, the Savannah river at Augusta is very low. The steamer Helen left Augusta on Tuesday morn ing for this city, and after going down a few hundred yards ran on to a bar and stuck fast. In order to relieve her about one hundred bales of cotton were taken from her, when she was got off, and returned to her dock. She left Angusta on Wednesday morning, and ar rived here yesterday afternoon, with a large number of passengers. In consequence of the low state of the river the steamer Amazon has been detained at Au gusta. She was at her wharf in that city on Wednesday, but would leave as soon as the river would permit. Arrival of Gen. Grosvenor.—Brig- Gen, Grosvenor, the Provost Marshal Geheral of this Department, accompanied by Maj. Hays, chief medical officer, of his staffi arrived in our city yesterday, and is stopping at the Pu laski House. The Ariadne.—This steamship did not sail yesterday in consequence of the non-arrival of the steamer Helen from Augusta, on which steamer there is a number of passepgers who desire to go North on the Ariadne. She wiU sail this afternoon at 4 o’clock. Thanks.—We are indebted to Purser Bob- inson, of the steamer Fannie, for late Charles ton papers. Also, to Mr. C- C. Cambridge, the Agent in this city, for like favors. at New Books. Mr. J. H. Estill has supplied cur book table with two very popular novels recently issued from Harper’s prolific establishment, ‘‘Belial,” by an unknown author, and “Dennis Downs,” by that gifted authoress, Miss Annie Thomas, whose spir ited pen portraiture of the actual scares of every day life have given her a reputation as a first elass writer of fiotion. There apparent in Ml of Miss Thomas’ productions a rich vein of original thinking blended in an artistic manner with that pure and delicate pathos whioh gifted woman can alone iDdite. The two former novels by this au thoress, “On Guard” and “Theo. Leigh,” enjoyed an immense circulation among the lovers of re fined works of fiction. Having but carleusly perused both of the above publications, we are not prepared to do anything more than briefly notice thei- production. The above, with all the latest magaiines, are for sale at Mr. Rstill’s News Depot, on Bull street WASHINGTON. ATTORNEY GENERAL SPEED’S OPINION QN THE TRIAL OF THE ASSASSINATION CONSPIRA TORS. New Advertisements. FREIGHT FOR AUGUSTA DAILY GREEN TURTLE SOUP ‘Our House” to-day, at II o’clock, Further Regarding the Rebel Pirate Shenandoa. Judge Black and Montgomery Blair. Judge Black, of Pennsylvania, and Hon. Montgomery Blair, were observed promenading amicably together to-day, and visiting the President in company. What next ? Trial of the Assassination Conspirators. The Attorney General, in response to an in quiry of President Johnson whether the per sons charged with the offence of hayiDg assas sinated the late President should be tried be fore a military tribunal or a civil court, gave a written opinion sustaining the former mode of trial. This opinion has been printed. It maintains that a military tribune exists under and according to the constitution in time of war; that the law of nations constitutes a part of the law of the land, and that the lawB of war constitute the greater part of the law of nations. The laws of war authorize human life to be taken without legal process, or that legal process contemplated by those provisions in the constitution relied upon to show that military judicial tribunals are unconstitutional. The law of nations, which is the result of the experience and wisdom of ages, has decided that jayhawkers, banditti, &c., are offenders against the law of nations and of war, and as such amenable to the military. Our constitu tion has made those a part of the law of the land. Obedience to the constitution and to law, then, requires that the military should do their whole duty. They must not only meet and fight the enemies of the country in open battle, but they must kill or take the secret enemies of the country, and try and execute them according to the law. The oivil tribunals of the country cannot rightfully interfere with the military in the per formance of their high, arduous and perilous, but lawful duties. The Attorney General charac terizes Booth and his associates as secret, active, public enemies; and he concludes with the opin 1 ion, that “the persons who are charged with the assassination of the President committed the deed as public enemies, as I believe they did; and whether they did or not is a question to be decid ed by the tribunal before which they Jare tried.— They not only can but ought to be tried before a military tribunal. If the persons charged have offended against the laws of war, it would be palpably wrong for the military to hand them over to the civil courts; as it would be wrong in a civil court to convict a man of murder who had in time of war killed another in battle.” The Pirate Shenandoah—Affairs in Pern. Commander Geo. B. Colvocoressis, reporting to the Secretary of the Navy, from Callao, July 13, says: The American ship North American, forty- nine days from Melbourne, Australia, reports having arrived at Melbourne the day after the rebel steamer Shenandoah left that port. The Norih American was informed that the Shenan doah took on board at that port, before leaving, twelve hundred tons of coal, and that her present first lieutenant joined her therq, having left an English steamer, of which be was master, to do so. Peru is reported in a very unsettled state, and Commander Colvocoressis intended to remain in that vicinity to protect American interests in the event of a change of government. Pardoned. N. N. Nixon, of North Carolina; Wm. T. Jaques and R. B. Bolling, of Virginia, and W. Prustheyand C. Shackleford, of Mississippi, were pardoned to-day. MARINE INTEL LIGENCE. SA VANN AH, AUGUST 17. ARRIVED.
