McGEK, Savannah, Aug. 31.—The storm of 1893 will far exceed that of 1881 in the loss of life that resulted from it. Even from the meager reports in it is appar ent that the destruction of human beings by wind and water is of horrifying pro portions. The exact extent of. the storm in this respect will never be known, with practically every one of the innumerable islands along the coast in the mouths of the rivers are submerged entirely or in part. The number of the negroes drowned must pass into the hundreds. Many bodies will never be found. The fast receding waters will carry them out into the ocean or they will be thrown ashore in the marshes and other out of the way places where the possi bility of discovery is extremely remote. A large number, too, will not be reached washed upon the land. The number of deaths reported to the authorities may be easily doubted, and the total number will not be exceeded. Util full intelligence is received from the sea islands, estimates as to the cas ualties must of necessity be poorly based upon the disconnected news at hand. It is apparent that the great stonn of Sun day will go down into history most frightfully destructive of the cen tury. Along the Georgia and South Carolina coasts the number of deaths probably 500, and the destruction to propertv oi $3,000,000. NOTICE OF PARTNERSHIP. ty Friends and Hie Public Genera T.

Hilliad was called up. Col. John C. McDonald counsel for Mr. Hilliad made a statement showing that land owned by Mr. Hilliad within tlie incorporate limits of the city consisting of 570 acres was not worth near the amount of assessment, $25 00 per acre, but that he would compromise on $12 5Q per acre.

Tlie case of Policeman Cotingham, charged with being drunk on the 4tli and 5th inst. was called. Mr. Coting--' ham made a statement to Council of the circumstances in the case, and promised that he never would commit tl*e offense .gain; and asking Council to pass the offense,“and restore him to fils place on the force.- After due consideration, it was by motion resolved, that, as this was Mr. Cotingliam’s first offense, and- hav ing promised that it shall not be repeat ed that he be excused arid restored/to liis position on the force. The Mayor read appeal from F. C. Owens on tax assessments of real estate, asking that the Assessed valuation be re duced Irom $32,000 to $28,000. By motion it was ordered that said assess ment be reduced to $28,800. The appeal of Mrs. Hewitt to be re lieved from paying the pro rata share assessed against her for paving Gilmore street of the amount of $25.00 was duly considered. Ordered by Council, that as Capt.

The Savannah, Florida and Western ailroad has issued a circular to its em ployes urging them to be economical. They have pursued this course instead f discharging them as the Centril did. This is as it should be, and for the kind ly consideration of the company for e who are serving it, the manage ment of that popular road deserve com mendation.—Gainesville Sun. There is food for thought in this sensible advice of the old S. F. & W. K\\, which other than railroad employes could profit by. When an indivsduaFs or a firm’s oiftgo is more than the income, disaster is sure to result. Tlie S. F. & W. corporation is not soulioss.
