Morton, arrived this morning at 31 o'clock. She brings a very large freight and many passen gers. We are indebted to Mr. A. Brown, Jr., her Purser, for favors. Arrival of the North Point.—This steamer arrived at her wharf from Baltimore at 31 o'clock this morning. Attempted liobitery.—Some time during Friday night last a negro almost in a state nudity eutergd the dwelling of Mr. James Roache, on Congress street east of Drayton. The negro effected an entrance from the yard, by placing a board upon the sill of the Window of the first floor which had been left open—after getting into the room he secreted himself under Mr! E’s bed waiting for qnitenegs to reign throughout the domicil. Unfortunatly for the negro, however, the inmates were up until a very late hour in con sequence of sickness in the family. Mr. K. shortly after retiring felt a strange sensation about his feet whereupon he im- nicdatelv cried out "Whose there ?” receiv es no answer his wife suddenly arose and proceeding to the room adjoining, procured a light—dnring her absence the negro becoming nlarmad and seeing that he was about to come in contact with Mr. R. made rush for the window—in his hurry carrying away the mosquito netting of the bed, and at the same time nearly treading upon a sleeping jafaris. The negro was immediately pursued but not captured. Launch of a Steam Coaster.—The new steamer “Islander,” planned and built under the supervision of Mr. A. N. Miller, for him self and others, was successfully launched from the Eastern Wharves' on Saturday after noon last. The Islander is a small, light draught steamer, and was built entirely, with a view of navigating all of our adjacent rivers and shallows, streams. She is seventy- fee feet in length, fourteen feet beam, four and a half feet depth of hold, and will carry about one hundred and twenty-five bales of cotton. The engine and boiler for the Island er are already built, and it is thought she fell be ready to participate as a new candi date for favor in the coasting trade the pres ent season. We have seldom seen a craft of her size and capacity that presents such a model of speed, comfort and capacity, and trust that she may be the first of that class of vessels which our goaheadativeness and rapidly increasing business demands. murderous assault. A Negro Assaults HU Mother, Sister and Brother—He is Shot by the Police. Vesterday a negro made a murderous as sault npon his mother, sister and brother, and in attempting to escape from the police, was shot. It appears that early in the morning, the negro, who is named Dick Nolan, and is a •resident of Pannicake lane, for some unex plained cause made a murderous assault upon his mother, about sixty years of age. He knocked her down, when his sister inter fered, whom he also commenced to handle roughly. Two negro men observing this, armed themselves with sticks, and ordered the scoundrel to desist from hi a fiendish at tacks. The negro rushed into the house, and procuring a revolutionary sabre, com menced an indiscriminate assault upon all in the lane, effectually clearing it of all men, women and children, cats and dogs, after which he returned to his domicile. Shortly after this a policeman who had been sent for, arrived and placed the negro under arrest, when he said that his sister was amenable to the laws, and desired her to be arrested also. The policeman left him to arrest the sister, whereupon the negro escaped into his house, .which placed him out of the power of the officer, until he could procure a warrant. Thus matters stood until the afternoon, when Dick had another difficulty, Joe Nolan, his brother, being the object of his assault The police again interfered, and Dick again had recourse to his sword, but observing that the officers were not in the least intimidated, attempted to run, when a well directed shot which struck him in the calf of the leg, brought him to. He was carried to the Barracks, from whence he will be brought before the Mayor this morning. Mayor’s Court. There being no cases to be disposed of, course there was no session. Oar city in regard to the morals of (hat in ferior class of human beings is becoming much better every day, and we sincerely hope they may continue to walk more strictly in the path of virtue and honor. Historical and Statistical Sketch of the City of Savannah.—By reference to an ad vertisement in another column it will be seen that the proprietor of this paper proposes publishing at an early day a Historical and Statistical Sketch of this City, with its re sources, commercial facilities, social ad vantages, institutions and prospects. Mr. Frank D. Dee, for some time past local editor of this paper, aided by competent as sistants, is engaged in compiling this work, and in furtherance thereof has access to the public records of the city and all other sources of information. We can therefore, safely state that it will be a work not only of interest to our citizens and the public gen erally, but, also, by showing the present and prospective advantages of the cityv it will tend to encourage a further development of its re sources, attract trade and travel to it, and induce emigration. County Court Records are at present (as far as we can learn) all complete and will be turned OTer to the Clerk of the Superior Court to-day. This Court was created under an act of the General Assembly, March 17, 1868. The new Constititution abqlisljefj this Ooqrt (we think a very bad feature in the bill) as it has hot only done much good, hut has been some what of a revenue to the county. This Court during its existence has adju dicated about one thousands eases and civil. In examining the books we find much credit is due Mr. F. H. Blois Tor the masterly manner in which they have been kept ■ strange to say only oqe case “certiorari” ■We.nn^erstaiia'mt Judge'Enssell will re- wme the practice of his profession. In Bankruptcy.—The following named per sons have filed petitions in the Clerk’s office of the United States Court for final discharge, having complied with the requirements of the law in regard to bankruptcy: Halph N. K. Bardwell, Columbus. Thomas Chapman, Columbus. Gideon J. Peacock, Columbus. Alford Zorkowski, Columbus. George H. McGough, Columbus. Tasler S. Chapman, Columbus. W. L. Tillman, Columbus. James W. Ware, Columbus. Francis J. Vining, Forsyth. James W. Ensign, Forsyth. Thomas Poliston & Son, Forsyth. William J. Dumas, Forsj-th. James O. Hunt, Thomaston. ' John J. Allen, Bibb county. Fleming G. Catelin, Macon. John W. Hancock, Macon. Nathan Shields and William H. Smith, of the firm of Smith, Shields & Co. There is an important feature in the bank rupt act, of which probably- many of onr peo ple may be ignorant. The act requires that a discharge shall be applied for within one year. Many persons, forgetting this fact, are permitting this limited period to pass without action. A bankrupt may apply for his dis charge in sixty days after adj udication, if no debts have been proved against him, or if no assets have come into the hands of the as signee, or he may apply after six months in any case, but he must apply within one year. The Winchester Repeating Rifle.—We had the pleasure of examining one of these rifles yesterday, and was astonished, as we did not think it possible that a rifle could be made so effective and at the same time so simple in its construction. This rifle carries eighteen charges, which can be fired in nine seconds, or at the rate of two shots per second, commencing with the magazine full. It can also be fired as a single breech-loader twenty times per minute, having at the same time in reserve at the magazine sixteen charges, which can be fired when in close quarters at the rate of two shots per second. In case of a cartridge missing fire, it is with drawn from the barrel with unfailing certainty, and another can he placed in its stead and fired in just half a-Second, giving this arm an advantage over all others, which cannot be too highly recommended, especially for those travelling through or living in a country where they are likely to be troubled by rob bers, as one man armed with one of these rifles is equal to ten armed with ordinary guns. Ft takes but three motions to load and fire it as a repeater, and four as a single breech loader, which is a degree of simplicity never yet attained by any other rifle, either iu this country or Europe.—New Orleans Times, Fib. 12th. ■ ... I Runaway Affair.—About four o’clock Sate nrday afternoon last, considerable excitement was created in the vicinity of Broughton and Whitaker streets, caused by the spilling of groceries promiscuously in that vicinity. It appears that a mule attached to a jersey wa gon belonging to Mr. Humphreys, while standing in front of the Arsenal, became rest less and started off at full speed up Whitaker to Broughton street, where, after coming in contact with an awning post, collided with a wagon belonging to Mr. Amorous, of Thun derbolt, which was standing in front of the store of J. Lyons. The jersey wagon on col liding was immediately overturned, and was the means of bringing his muleship to a stand. The wagon of Mr. Amorous sustained bnt little damage, although the groceries con tained in the wagon, as well as in Mr. Hum phrey’s, were scattered in every -direction. The collision between the two wagons had no sooner occurred than the street was over flowed with a sprinkling of Young America, and a numberless amount of the Bureau rep resentatives, all making a grand dive after the spoils. < ^ Wood Sawing.—As a. general thing, and under the old system especially, the subject of wood sawing would convey to the mind of the reader an old, decrepit negro with an or dinary wood saw and buck, performing a triangular motion with Ms arms, and per spiring under the heat of a" September 'day in onr latitude, but tMs is not the matter of wMch we would speak; it is that of wood sawing by steam. On Saturday we visited the wood yard of Mr. M. H. Cullens, at the foot of West Broad street, where we witness ed the operation of his machinery for sawing wood. In twenty minutes by the watch two cords of oak wood were sawed, two cuts being given to each stick. The two cofds contain ed about six hundred sticks of wood of all sizes. The rapidity with which a pile of wood was transformed from the usual length into sizes suitable for stoves or grates, was astonishing. Certainly wood sawing by steam is an institution that will never die. Runaway and Smash Up.—About dark last evening a pair of horses attached to a buggy, belonging to Messrs. Wilson & Dehony, hav ing been left standing some where near the lower end of the Bay, took fright and started off at full speed. They ran up the Bay to Bull and turning into Bryan street, proceed ed as for as the’ Planters’ Bank building when the buggy came in contact with a gas lamp, wMch broke the shafts short off. The horses, however, proceeded at their runaway speed, but were finally caught : near the comer of Habershain and St Julian street. Nothing but the buggy -was injured. Departure op Steamships.—The steam ships l$anuion and San Jacinto, with fall freights, and a number of passengers, sailed for New York on Saturday last, Thanks.—We return oqr thanks to the Qrapd Representatives from the Grand Lodge, L O. O. F*. of Georgia, to the Grand Lodge of the United States, now in session in Balti more, for copies of the annual report of the various officers of that body. The reports show that the Order is on the increase through out ttfo United states, Smwk AvistfoUa. New Saloon.—We inadvertently omitted to notice the opening, hist week, °f the new saloon of Mr. W. B. Donaldson, located on Broughton Street, a few doors west of the Marshall ■ House, where can be obtained as choice viands as at any similar establishment in the cijy. ; Fine Apples, Dairy Cheese and Fresh Cider.—Jpst received and for sale low by C.' W Thompson, 87 Bay street [COMMUNICATED. ] Mr. Editor-—In the issue' of the Savannah Republican of the 18th inst, appears a com munication over the non de plume of “Ino,” asking that the citizens of Savannah be en lightened by the citing of “any ordinance or resolution of the municipal authorities under which the Mayor and City Council have dis criminated against the famishing of medi cines for any particular class of pauper pa tients; and also whether at _ any time within the past eighteen months a resolution was ever entertained by the Georgia Medical Society expressive of the disinclination of its mem bers to attend negro patients as a particular class, in consequence of alleged inhumanity unjustly made against one of its most accom plished members.” By referring to the News and ffmim 0 f the 3d inst * ‘Ino” will find the proceedings of the City Council of the 2d inst, in the course of which appears the following: “Ordinances on their second reading and as amended passed. “An ordinance to amend the various ordi nances of the City of Savannah in relation to the Dispensary Officer.” “(As amended published elsewhere.) “On motion of Alderman , it was sug- gesjed that no medicines be issued in the fu ture for the treatment of venereal diseases,by the keeper of the City Dispensary.” It is to this particular class of pauper pa tients, who are afilteted with veneral diseases, that we are informectMhe resolution of the Georgia Medical Society refers. Now, we indorse and commend the action of the Society in disapproving of the with holding of medicines from venereal pClients, and think that the Society, as the conservator of the public health, have acted humanely, wisely and justly in the passage of a resolu tion condemnatory of the action of the Mayor and City Council. The propriety of the City Council’s asking an opinion from the Medical Society” before taking action ,on a resolution pertaining to the general health, will suggest itself, we think, to every’ observant mind. In reply to the second inquiry I would beg to inform “Ipo” that a resolution was enter tained and passed by the Georgia Medical So ciety, not only “expressive of the disinclina tion of its members to'attend negro patients as a particular class, in consequence of al leged inhumanity’,” etc., but also avowing their intention to withhold their medical ser vices from negro patients, irresponsible and unknown to them, unless protected from such unjust and outrageous charges as were made against one of its members. The charges re ferred to are too well known and so unworthy of consideration, as to require no repetition. Cm Clerk of the Superior Court.—It will be remembered that a few days since we stated that his (White’s, the negro,) bondsman had refused to remain upon his bonds any long er, and that the Governor allowed him ten days to procure another, in default to be. ejected from office. The time allotted will ex- E ire the latter part of this week. On Saturday ist he was informed by the Ordinary that his bondsman must in addition to being worth the amount of the Bond required, three thous and dollars in real estate, also have a sufficient amount to cover the Homestead exemption act. The total amount required to be furnished will be about $7,000. The said Clerk of the Superior Court left for Atlanta on Saturday night last. We have been unable to learn the cause of the Clerk’s sudden departure, but suppose that he has gone to have an interview with His Excellen cy in regard to his office, which he fears he will have to vacate if assistance is not render ed him in an official manner. There is no use, White ! The laws have been made, and are to be enforced against you as well as white persons. When the Plantation Bitters were first made known to the American people some seven years ago, it was supposed that they were an entirely new thing, and had never before been used. So far as their general use in the United States is concerned, this may be true. It is also true that the same Bitters were made and sold in the Island of St. Thomas, over forty years ago, as any old planter, merchant or sea captain doing busi ness with the AVest Indies will tell yon. It is distinctly within my recollection that on the return of my father (who was a sea eat>- tain, and doing an extensive trade in the tropics,) he would invariably’ have these Bit ters among the ship’s stores, and onr family sideboard was never without them. For any sickness, it matters not Ikjjv,severe or trifling, the decaliter nf these Bitters, by w different name, was always resorted to as a sovereign remedy. | - ; • I . - .

Berrien Oliver, formerly editor of the Tallahassee Sentinel, is well known’ through out, this section of country as a gentleman of probity and fine business talent. The new firm commences business under most favora ble auspices, and will, we trust, realize their most sanguine expectations. To the Voters of the First District.—We direct the attention of our readers to the ad vertisement in another column announcing Mr. Rorep.t J. Wade as a candidate for the office of Magistrate of the First District Mr. Wade is a native of this city, and we have no doubt but that he will, if elected, fulfil the duties incumbent upon' the office without fear, favor or partiality.

Lewis, in his “ Reminiscenses of the AVar,” now being pnblished in .the Texas Christian Advocate, relates the annexed remarkable instance as literally true. The battle referred to was that of Prairie Grove, iu Northwest Arkansas, fought December 7th, 1862: A carious fulfillment of a dream ■ occurred ■ at this battle under my own eye. A man by I name of Joe AVilliams, had told a dream to ■ many of his fellow soldiers, some of whom had related it to me, months previous to the; occurrence, which 1 now relate : He dreamed that we crossed a river,! marched over a mountaian and encamped near a church, located in a wood near which a terrible battle ensued, and in a charge just as we crossed the ravine he was shot in the ’ breast. On the ever-memorable 7th of De cember, 1862, as we moved in double quick to take our place in the line of battle, then already hotly engaged, we passed Prairie i Grove Chureh, a small frame building be-; longing to the Cumberland Presbyterians. I: was riding on the flank of the command, and opposite to AVilliams, as we come in view ofj the house. “That is the chureh, Colonel, I; saw in my dream,” said he. I made no re ply and never thought of the matter again uu- til in, the evening, we had broken the eneffiy’s line, and were in full pursuit when we came upon a dry ravine in the wood, and AVilliams said : “Just on the other side of this hol low I was shot in mv dream, and I will stick my liat under my shirt. Suiting the action to the word as lie ran along, he doubled it up and crammed it in his bosom—scarcely had he adjnsted it before a minnie ball knocked him out of the line- Jumping up quickly, he pulled out his hat, waved it over his head and shouted. “I'm all right!” The ball had gone through four thicknesses of his hat, raised a black spot the size of a man’s hand just over his heart, and dropped iutq his shoe. Two attempts were mode last week to bum the AVhite Sulphur Springs property. Three of the cottages were entirely consumed, and but for thg timely assistance rendered by the visitors present much of this valuable proper ty might have been destroyed. Two negroes were an-ested in Covington, A’a., suspected of the crime, and taken'to Greenbrier county, -t Vatley Virginian. ~ *-* ♦ «. 4 } It is stated that a special agent was sent to Europe by a late sfeamer to induce a certain party to offer a compromise which would re store half a, million dollars, out of w’hich the government ha« been defrauded. The moral is if you steal, let it be iu a large, not a small way. John Boher, an old man of eighty, has jnst been sentenced, at Quincy, Ill., to fourteen years in the State penitentiary for the mur der of his son.
