SAVANNAH DAILY REPUBLICAN. FRIDAY MORNING. SEPTEMBER 15. 1865. MV'iliH RBfllBM - SAVANNAH: FRIDAY MORNING, SEFT’R 15. TKE StTUMAUA OF CRIME. The Last Murder in Our City. From one of our Reporters we gather the following facts in relation to the dia bolical murder committed night before last, a report of which appeared in yes terday’s Republican. From a number of witnesses we learn that a man,supposed to be a United States soldier, wearing the uniform of a cavalry man, accosted a colored man by the name of Albert Smith, on Habersham street, about 9 1-2 o’clock, and attempted to rifle his pockets. Before the robber had ac complished his search, Smith who was watching his chance, succeeded in es caping, and ran rapidly up Congress street Lane, pursued by the thief, who was armed with a carbine. Smith for tunately eluded the murderer, or he would probably have shared the same fate as the two victims, Lavender and Toney Allen. Exasperated by this defeat, it would seem the brutal wretch bent on satiating bis demoniac spirit with human gore, rushed into the grocery store of Joshua Wicks, a colored man, at the corner of Congress street lane and Habersham street, where several colored men were seated at a table conversing. With oaths and imprecations, the infuriated wretch demanded to know “What in h—1 are you d -d niggers doing here, I’ll scatter you,” and before the terrified men could disperse, he raised his carbine, and taking deliberate aim, fired at Wm. Lavender, the ball entering the left lung, and passing out just below the left shoulder. Lavender fell to the floor in a pool of blood mortally wounded, and survived his injuries but a few hours, ex piring in the greatest agony. Not con tent with one murder, the assassin coolly raised his carbine, and with blasphemous threats upon his vile lips pointed his wea pon at the head of Tony Allen, of Co. I, 103d U. S. C. T., and quickly discharged its contents. The occupants of the build ing, who were terribly alarmed at the wholesale murders of the soldiers, fled in all directions, and after raising an outcry which alarmed the neighbors, returned to the store only to behold the bloofly spectacle of the wounded men weltering in pools of blood, while the murderer was nowhere to be found. Allen was formerly a slave, and belonged in Gor- doi^Ga. The human heart is really sickened at the constant recital of these henious out rages committed upon innocent and un offending negroes, and we. have recently heard a great many colored men say that they were not half as secure from danger now as when they were in bondage. We trust a rigorous search will succeed in ferreting out this fiend in human form, and if proved guilty of the atrocity, hanging will be too good for him. It does seem as though Satan had let loose his imps all over our land, for the era of crime seems to Imre dawned upon our country, and its horrors reach from the forest shores of Maine to the golden sands of the Pacific. Well may we ex claim, ‘ ‘ O eventful age ! O 4 the cor ruption of the times !” Surprise Presentation at Fort Pu* laski. An elegant Gold Watch and chain was yesterday afternoon presented to Captain Briggs of the steamer U. S. Grant, at Fort Pulaski, by the commissioned offi cers of the 103d U, S. C. T. The Capt., who was simply r inrited to dine with the officers, was completely surprised, and for a time could not find words to express his gratitute to the generous donors, The occasion was a happy one for all present, -.while unbounded hospitality was extended to the invited guests, and few will forget the visit to Fort Pu laski, Sept. 14, 1805. The gift which is as appropriate as elegant, was a deserved compliment to a courteous and obliging officer, who seems to have studdied the little amenities of life and practiced them as well as navigation. The watch was manufactured at ^fltlxam, Mass., by the American Watch Company, and was pur chased at Mr. Jordan’s jewelry establish ment on Congress street. The watch .is neatly engraved with an inscription con taining the donors’ and and recipients’ names, date of presentation, &c. The cost of this substantial token was $250. Two More New Steamers for New York. Hereafter the Atlantic Coast Mail Steamship Company will dispatch two boats e$ch week, to nail Thursdays and Saturdays, between New York and Savannah. We have not yet learned the names of the two new Saturday boats, but understand they will be first class in every parti cular. This will certainly afford Savannah am ple water communication with the North, and we congratulate John R. Wilder, Esq., the enterpris es Agent in this oity, on the success which has rewarded his energy. Hen Joshna Hill for the Union At the raising of a liberty pole, in front of Gen. Steedman’s Headquarters, at Augneta a few days since, Hon. Joshua Hill delivered 'an eloquent apostrophe to the Stars and Stripes, urging the large crowd, who had assembled to* witness the ceremony, to be truly loyal and con scientiously observe their oaths, and see that Union men were sent to the Slat; Convention. A Decided Improvement. Last evening our eyes were gladdened on pass ing that great public caravansary of Savannah— the Pulaski House—to beboH three new lanterns, which were lighted for tt j first time in many years, shedding their refnlgent light on the passers by, and lending to the whole of Johnson Square a brilliant and animated appearance, which is cheerful to the eye of both strangers and citi zens, tending to relieve at least a small portion of our city from the impenetrable gloom and dark ness that pervades many sections of our city. Now Mr, Wiltberger will only place another lantern over the Bull street entrance to his hotel, the improvement will be complete, and the bene factor will certainly be entitled to the thanks of the community as well as the gratitude of his guests, who enjoy a quiet lounge or smoke be" neath the trees these pleasant autumn evenings. We are glad to notice that the internal improve ments of the Pulaski more than keep pace with the exterior attractions, the proprietors having expended several thousand dollars in repairing the hotel, whitewashing, paintigg and otherwise refurnishing me rooms, in order to add to the comfort of their guests this fall. We understand that the mutilated railings that protect the trees surrounding the Pulaski House, are to be re painted and repaired, and this will give the premises an inriting appearance. Since the par tial opening of the Augusta Railroad, this house has eojoyed a very extensive patronage from the travelling public, and with Mr. Fernandez beh.nd the counter, courtesy is extended to all visitors.' Speaking of lights, why are the tasty French globe lanters that adorn the front of the Ex change, not permitted to illumine the travellers’ pathway at night? They were lighted the first evening gas was turned on, but since then not a ray of light has escaped from them. Marine and Fire Insurance. It will be seen by referring to our column of new advertisements this morning, that the old and popular Selma Insurance & Trust Co. of Selma, Alabama, so well and favorably known throughout the South, having taken heavy risks on the most prominent mercantile and commercial houses in the leading Southern cities, has again resumec business. The company now propose to establish their agency in this city, which has been sus pended during the war. Messrs. J. T. Thomas & Co., one of our most reliable and energetic insurance houses, are the agents for the com pany, who are now prepared to negotiate risks on the most liberal terms, having large assets in cotton. We do not hesitate to recommend any company for which Thomas & Co. are agents, but the “Selma Insurance & Trust Co.” is too well known by our oldest merchants to require any extended notice at our hands.

Southern Crops and the Freedmen. The Freedmen’s Bureau has advices that crops in Middle Tennessee and North Alabama are a failure, and that much suffering will ensue in consequence. Gen. Clinton B. Fisk, assistant commissioner of the Freedmen’s Bureau for Ken tucky, Tennessee and North Alabama, reports to General Howard that the Freedmen’s courts throughout that district are constantly crowded with freedmen, who complain bitterly of the loss of back pay, and also of other acts of injustice being done them. On July 1st, seven thousand one Tiundred and fifty-one freedmen were sub sisted by our government, and the number now has been reduced to nine hundred and seventy- nine, mostly aged and infirm. The white re fugees on July 1 numbered five thousand nine hundred and sixtv-nine, and at the date of the dispatch to Gen. Howard they were reduced to fourteen. Pardon-Seekers. There was again a large crowd at the Ex ecutive Mansion to-day, nearly all of whom were pardon-seekers, including Miles Taylor, formerly representative in Congress from Lou isiana. Some of them had been standing at the door for at least five hours waiting for ad mittance, but had not been gratified up to 3 o’clock. The President, in the intervals of the public business, received a few only of the visitors. To have opened the door of his of fice to all comers at once, with the thermome ter indicating about ninety degrees, would have exposed him to the risk of suffocation. Fifty-two pardons were granted yesterday by the President. To-day some of them impa tiently repaired to the State Department to ob tain the Secretary’s signature to the docu ments. J’assports Applied for by iMte Rebel Officers. General Marinadude, known as a prominent officer in the late rebellion, is the first one to avail himself of the privilege to go abroad and remain without the United States during the pleasure of the government, and has received a passport accordingly. General Beauregard has also applied for a passport under the same official order of the Department of State, through the medium of a sympathizing lady friend from Alabama.—N. Y. World. [Special Dispatch to the N. Y. Tribune.] Washington, Sept. 8,186a. Western Steamboat Burners—Jeff. Davis Stib- penaed. The Military Commision has been organized, and will proceed to the trial, at St. Louis, ol the burn ers of our steamers upon the Western rivers. It is stated that the culprits, many of whom have been a long time nnder^arrest, have a large fnnd at their oommand, and have secured the services of Col. J. iV. Bell to conduot their defence. Sub- penas have been issued for Jefferson Davis, and Secretaries Mallory and Seddon, to testify in the case. A Colored Mail Contractor. Tthe Postmaster General to-day awarded the contraot for carrying the United States mails be tween Leesburg and Winchester, Va., to Robert Orrick, a colored citizen of the fatter town, at a salary of $625 per annum. This is the first in stance of similar award being made to a colored man by the Government. The respectability and trustworthiness of the oontrator are vouched for by the Hon. Jno. S. Gallagher, formerly State Senator from the Winchester District. JEFF. DAVIS. Prejiarations for His Trial at Fortress Monroe. Fortress Monroe, Thursday, Sept. 7, 1865. Government carpenters were set at work a tew days since to convert the old telegraph office in side the fortress into quarter! for Jeff. Davis; but who will use in the manufacture of whis ky. Freedmen, particularly those who have families, should not sell their corn ; they will need it all for food before another harvest IL In cases where freedmen have cnl- tivated lands upon shares, each crop must be divided at the time it is gather- ed between the freedman who cultivated The Military Con.miss.on held their ninth ses- j fc * he owner of the land according sion yesterday for the defence. One witness was to the terms of the contract or agree- examined, and another called and partially ex yesterday orders were issued to stop that work and prepare Carroll Hall Building, which is in side the fortress. From this it is presumed the trial of Jeff. Davis will take place here, and hence these preparations. The Murder ol Capt. Heasley. Military Commission-Ninth Day. amined. . The defense offered a question, which was ob jected to by the Judge Advocate, and earnestly pressed by the counsel for the defense. The Commission adjourned to meet to-day at 9 a. m., without coming to a decision. The interest was as intense as heretofore, but on account of the heat the attendance was not as large as upon former days.—Augusta Chronicle, 12 th. More Union Troops Shot 11 Two Union soldiers, who were on duty about ten miles from Macon, were shot on Saturday. Sergeant D. W. llidcnow and Private James Solomon, both belonging to Co. I, 187th Reg’t Ohio Vol. Iufantry. The sergeant, though severely wounded, it is thought will live ; Pri vate Solomon is expected will die from his in juries. Such deeds as these do not have a tendency to relieve the stringency of military rule in the sections where they are committed. Augusta Chronicle, 12th. We should say if this state of affairs con tinues much longer, for we regret to state the reports of such outrages are becoming quite numerous, it will be some time before civil law is restored. The Shenandoah, [From the Baltimore American.] The history of the Shenandoah, as given by the Liverpool Daily Post, reveals a series of transactions which have been duly noted by our State Department at Washington. The Post, in deploring the depredations of the notorious cruis er, declares that they reduce the boasted neutrali ty of England to a mere sham; that they com promise not merely the character of British mer chants, but of the British nation; create bitter animosity between the two countries, and threat en to involve them in war. The steamer Sea King was built at Glasgow in October, 1863. Her tonnage was 790 tons, and her combined power 200 horse. Her framework was iron planked with wood,and she was register ed as the property of a London banker. In Sep tember, 1864, sfie was transferred by bill of sale to Richard Wright,a shipowner of Liverpool, aad a relative of tbs Confederate agent there. In the month following, Wright issued to P. S. Corbett, who had been endorsed as master of the vessel, a certificate of sale empowering him to dispose of the Sea King at any port outside of the United Kingdom for not less than £45,000 pounds ster ling. She was then cleared in ballast as an ordi nary merchant vessel from London tor Bombay. Meanwhile the British blockade runner Laurel, which had secretly taken on board at Liverpool a large amount of naval stores and a heavy armament, together with several Confederate officers and a considerable number of men, cleared for Nassau. The two vessels left port on the same day for Madeira, where they met and whence they proceeded in company to the island of Porto Santo, where, in Portugese waters, the men, stores and armament were transferred from the Laurel to the Sea King under the British flag. The Sea King was thdh renamed the Shenandoah, Captain Corbett raised the Confederate flag and the vessel set out on her piratical cruise. Earl Russell says that the United States may go to law in the English Courts for the posses sion of Confederate vessels found in British waters. This is not enough to satisfy Mr. Seward and the American people. The people will not simply expect of Mr. Seward that he shall persist in his demand for the surrender of the Shenandoah, the last prominent repre sentative of “belligerent rights,” but that he shall demand of Great Britain ample indemnity for the destruction she has occasioned. The lory administration of England may wince and may try to evade payment, but it is one of those debts we cannot permit to be repu diated. >8®“ CHOICE LUNCH at ‘Our House’ to-day, at 11 o’clock. offioia.il,.

It is understood that numerous dis tilleries are being established within the limits of this Department, for the pur pose of manufacturing whiskey from corn, and that the owners thereof are in tending to purchase corn at low rates from the freedmen, for this purpose. In a time like the present, when starvation and famine threaten the country, when thousands are without food, or are being fed by Government bour.ty, no such waste of food should be tolerated. All j Agents of this Bureau will take measures | to prevent, as much as may be in their ; lower, and discourage in every way, the xeedmeo from selling their corn to those rneut. It is the duty of all Agents connected with this Bureau to see that fair and lib eral contracts are made, remembering that “the laborer is worthy of his hire,” and that both parties carry out their agreements in good faith. The best arrangements that can be made for all parties is the cultivation of the land upon shares—the owner of land taking one- half of the crop, and the cultivator the other half. The freedmen will be allow ed to use a portion of the store houses on the place for storing their portion of the crop. HI. The attention of all Agents of this Bureau is again called to the law of Con gress, as enunciated in Circular No. 13, from the Bureau of Refugees and Freed men, fixing the status and defining what are to be regarded as abandoned lands.
