SAVANNAH:
J SAXI BBAV MORNING, AtG’X 26.
The Health of Savannah.
It gives us great pleasure to be able to repeat
what we hare said on recent occasions concern
ing the excellent sanitary condition ot our city by
presenting stubborn f-icts in the shape of official
figures, to substantiate all that we have pub-
lished. The statement we give below, and which
was kindly furnished us by Mr. M. F. Wilsey,
will be found of interest to our readers, as giving
a correct exhibit of the health of Savannah.
The following list of deaths reported at the
office of the Health Offioer Sub-District of Ogee-
chee for the month ending July 31st, 1865, shows
conclusively that Savannah is unusually ex
empt at the present time from oontagious dis
eases :

This satisfactory sanitary condition of the
“Forest City” reflects great credit upon our
military commanders for their fidelity in su
perintending the routine of the work, as well
as in electing good officers, who lire unceasing
in their efforts to promote the general health
of our city. It is proper that Surgeon N. Les
lie Snow, of the 153d New York, Health Offi
cer Sub-District of Ogeechee, and Capt. W. H.
Boynton, the popular and faithful Street Com
missioner, should both receive credit for their
vigilance and energy in preventing the ac
cumulating of offensive matter within the city
limits. The importance of the labors devolv
ing upon both of these officers is well under
stood by the old residents of Savannah, and
we believe the entire public appreciates the hu
manity that has been exhibited by the officers
in striving to drive from our borders the hor
rors of pestilential diseases.

Nbw Novel.—We have received from Mr.

lane, a new novel by Miss Mulock, author of
“John Halifax, Gentleman,” Ac., entitled the
“Christian’s Mistake.” We have not yet had
time to glance at the contents of this volume, but
the reputation of Miss Mulock is a sufficient
guarantee for anything from her pen. This book
is in the usual style of the Harpers, and can he
obtained from Mr. Estill at the low price of $1.
Internal Revehok Tax.—Merchants and
others interested in the shipment of cotton and
manufactured goods from this port after this date,
will notice that the above tax must be paid on
such articles before shipment.

The Cotton Carrying Trade.
PROFITS OF THE NEW ORLEANS S TBAMSHIP LIVE.
The New (Means correspondent of the Boston
lb«l says :
“The cotton carrying trade by fast lines ol
steamers, is now the great business of New Or
le&os, and will continue such as long as present
h'gh prices for our famous gossipium rule. A
pew line has been put on between New York and
this city for the purpose of reaping some ot the
profits of this immense business. The proprie
tors *re Livingston, Wells &Co,. the agents here
Jumet Connolly A Co., formerly agents ot the
Cdbawba, DeSolo, Huntsville and j31sck War*
rior. The •» tlanta was to sail from New Yoik on
the 26tb, and to be followed by the Victor. The
profits of this business are now very great.

largest size a week always full; aa are the Crom-
well steamers. For instance, the Guiding Star,
which took out 2,492 bales last trip, got 2 3 4
cents per pound, or eleven dollars a bale, aver
age weight 450 pounds, for which she got (27,-
412, besides passengers and other freight. On
her outward trip her receipts were at least $20,-
000. making a total, passenger fare added in.
of upwards of $50,000 easily accounted for.—
I am told, indeed, that the gross receipts
of the round taip were $65,000
From this deduct $20,000 expenses, and we
have $45,000 net profits, enough to pay for as
splendid a ship as the Guiding Star in a very
short time. The Evening Star, in twenty-
eight round trips, has paid for herself twice
over. She has been very fortunate, far more
so than her sister, the Morning Star, but at
present rates and with accumulating business
of the most profitable kind all must do weli.
In conversation with an experienced captain
the other day, he told me that it was the
received opinion at New York, as also here,
that at present high prices colion must con
tinue to be shipped on fast steamers.
The new company will undoubtedly realize
large profits, as also would Boston, had she a
catton carrying line of steamships on the route.
Since the above was written the telegraph in
forms us that the Union Company of your city
have purchased the Concordia, 1,700 tons, and
the Kensington, 1,050, and that they are im
mediately to be pat on the New Orleans
line.
So long as cotton continues to be carried by
steamships there is no such word as w
with any line to these or Texan waters. To
show how extensive has become this carrying
business, I will mention that two large steamers
leave to-day, the 28th ; one Thursday, the 3d;
another Friday, the 4tb, and two more Satur
day,the 6th—all cotton laden. These steamers
have been running some time, and now we have
the promise of the two new Boston and New
York ships besides.”
Savannah Markets.
Republican Office, Aug. 26,1865.
There has been but few fluctuations in the
current market prices for the last three or four
days. Changes may have been noticed in the
sale- of articles, in great demand, since the
publication of our last market statement, but
the majority of articles may be reported in
statu quo. We hare endeavored to collate ac
curate estimates of the leading articles, which
will be found under their appropriate heads.
We are pleased to state that 500 bales of
cotton from the Altamaha river have been re
ceived within the past week by steamer at this
po^t; by flatboats aud otherwise, 1,840 bales
of Upland and 75 do. Sea Island have been
transported down Savannah river from Augus
ta and the intermediate landings dnriDg the
same period. We hope that the cotton will be
brought on from the interior as rapidly
as the poor transporting facilities at theoommaod
of onr people will admit. A great deal of energy
and activity will be given to business of every
kind if this valuable product is rapidly shipped
to onr city. A lthough the water in the Savannah
river still continues low, the far-seeing'merchants
of Augusta and Savannah, have boats plying to
and fro, which are admirably adapted to its navi
gation at almost all times, hence bnt little incon
venience is felt from the oontinned low stage of
water. The interests of our commercial comma
nity will undoubtedly be greatly enhanced by the
partial opening of the Central Railroad, and
donbtless some competition will have the effect of
reducing rates of freight and passengers on the
river boats between here and Angnsta.
Cotton.—The receipts of cotton at this port
since the 28d inst. have been 1840 bales of Up
land, 75 bales Sea Island and 220 bales of Domes
tics. The total receipts from the 1st inst. to date
have been 13,173 bales Upland, 375 bales Sea Is
land and 2,401 bales of Domestics. The exports
since the 23d inst. to date have been 1,762 bales
of Upland, 150 bales Sea Island, and 297 bales of
Domestics; since 1st inst. to date the exports
have been 10,832 bales of Upland, 533 bales Sea
Island and 1,241 bales of Domestics. The ad
vance of half to one per cent, per ponnd noticed
in our last, is still demanded by sellers, and all
sales since the 23d have been made on that basis.
Since our last report there has been a good inqui
ry for cotton, and holders have obtained the rate
quoted below. The demand continues good, and
superior qualities, in bales, meet with ready
sale. Much of the cotton received from the in
terior is in very badjcoodition.and very little Good
Middling comes to market. Although the river
continues low, the receipts, as will be seen above,
are very good. We learn that a larga number of
fiats laden with from 300 to 400 bales are now on
the river and may be expected to arrive in the
course of two or three days.
