James K. Clarke, of Savannah, arrived

la illy Williams 'colored on the plantation
Of W. C. Thomas, dropped dead on last
Saturday. She was a large, robust, apna
reutly healthy woman, and had ju-t com
pleted her duty of milking cows. The pre
sumption is that she ha/1 heart disease.
Telegraph operators make many l>ad mis
take*. One of the:r errors caused the at>
jiearaiica of the following in the Orlando
Record: The correspondent of the Savan
nah Morning News in this city informs us
that in the dispatch which was sent bv him
to that paper contrasting the nuinter of
people who left Orlando upon the breaking
out of the fever at Tampa, with the num
ber who left last spring when the disease
made it* appearance at Key West, he wrote
the word "none'' while the News printed it
■‘more." thus conveying exactly the oppo
site impression to that which he intended.
He state* that he wrote: "When the fever
first made its appearance at Key West
many people of this city left Orlando, w hile
none nave left since it* appearame in
Tampa.”
Near Cedar Point a few days ago a man
ha/1 hi* attention arrested by "the rattling of
two rattlesnake* in a shrubby place so near
that he h<-ard them from his "house. Hasten
ing out to see what was the matter he
reached the scene in time to witness a fierce
combat between them. The serpent*
ha/1 no desire to take each others liver, but
struck each other blows with each of tle-ir
head*, making no use of their fangs The
spectator afterward killed both. These
venemous reptile* are armed. In the upjier
part of the mouth is a sack w hich contains
poison with an outlet connecting with the
orifice of their dangerous fangs, four in
number, two rivet'd, one just behind the
other riveter! to the jawbone, and the poison
squirt* out one-sixteenth of an inch of the
point of the fangs, which resembles a cat’s
claw When they strike against an object
it prewes this sack and ejects the poison
through the orifi'-e of the fangs and spreads
rapidly through its victim.
The ruling of Circuit Judge McClellan at
Pensacola Wednesday to the effect
that the law constraining steve
dores to procure a license for the
pursuit of their occupation is unconsti
tutional, leaves the business open to anyone
who may desire to engage in it, regardless
of competency or the fact that no license
has l*-en procured. At this writing, no ap
peal from the ruling lias been decided upon.
The ruling, however, will not materially
effect the general welfare of the men or the
contractor*, so long as 1/oth bodies hold to
gether and stand by eat h other. The con
tractor* have the privilege of refusing to
admit to their association those whom they
derire to keep out, and the determination of
the men to work for no one but an associa
tion contractor, if adhered to, will prevent
the ruin to employer and employe that
they claim will sorely follow a concession
to men whose services are retained by the
merchants, and to the end that a disruption
of the existing policy now governing the
labor at Pensacola bay, may be brought
about.
Pensacola Commercial: A reporter of the
Commercial, Wednesday, met Capt
Thomas, of the steamer Ella D., which left
this t ity on Aug. E! last, with a cargo of
fertilizer for Andalusia, Ala. It will tie re
membered that, about a month ago, the
Commercial reported the fact that tne ves
sel wns at the time lying at Murder Creek
Bends, just l/elow Brew ton, unable, because
of the obstructions in the river, to ascend
any further. Capt. Thomas informs
the reporter Ahnt the steamer is still
at the same place, and that no work is be
ing iloue oil the river, notwithstanding the
availability of tD.OOO for the purpos/ Capt.
Gould, who is in charge of the snag boat,
admitted some time ago to a reporter of the
Pollard Standard Gauge, that the Com
mercial waa correct in saying he removed
obstructions from some place in the stream
and deported them in other places, hut the
point* of deposit were in cove* and bends
and out of the imth of navigation. Capt.
Thomas says that, if the liends and coves
were clear of the rubbish, he could take his
steamboat up the river, and that it is those
very deposits which render the navigation
of the stream so difficult.
Josephine Davis, her mother, Susan
Robert son, anil Ned Hall, are all in the
county jail at Monticello, and will remain
there until theuext Circuit Court convenes,
a* they are all mixed up iu a vile crime.
On Saturday, Oct. 1, it appears that Joseuh
ine Davis, a colored girl, gave birth tan
living child, in a cotton patch on the New
Behavior plantation. She carried it to a
cabin on tho place, wherein was temporar
ily visiting her mother, Susan Rol/ert
son, and placed the infant, wrapped in
a piece of cloth, on the ground next to
the chimney, and covered it with a few bun
dles of fodder. There it remained until
night, when the mother of the girl (Susan
Robertson) carried it off a short distance,
and buried the infant (probably alive) about
six inches in the earth. On the Wepnesday
following some fifteen or twenty men vis
ited the plane where the infant was depos
ited, among them Taylor Johnson the col
ored manager of the "plantation. They un
earthed the infant, and found that it was a
small but well developed ma’e ih lil. There
upon Taylor Johnson communicated with
the County Judge (Puleston.) He repaired
to the place organized a jury, but
could not hold an inquest for, upon an ex
amination of the grave, it was discovered
that tho body haa l>en removed. It was
thereupon developed by the evidence of Ida
Neeley (colored), who lived in the cabin re
ferred to, that during Wednesday evening
Ned Hail had visited the grave, and was
seen by her to carry something off, and that
on his return lie had advised her to tell no-
Ikklv of seeing him go to the grave. Ned
Hall Is the reputed father of the infant, and
his purpose, probably, was to screen the
mother and grandmother from indictment.
He has made the matter worse, and now all
three are in a terrible scrape.
