Fjre in Savannah.—When the passenger
train left Savannah yesterday evening—at 7:30
tlie cotton yard of the C. R. R. was on fire;
about one hundred and fifty bales of cotton had
been burned and the fire was still progressing.
A gentleman in Omaha advertises for a “first
rate, tip-top, A No. 1, housemaid,” and adds the
suggesitve statement that “all the piano playing,
fine needlework, visiting and entertaining com

The Loyalty of Savannah. ;
To the Editors of the Savannah News and Herald: \
in (lie Press, of Philadelphia, there recently 1
'appeared a letter from its special correspond-. 1
ent, dated Savannah, April 3d,'1860. The wri- '
ter speaks of the great disloyalty of the people t
of (his “traitorous comiminity,” referable to <
President Johnson’s conduct within the past 1
six months, and tells of the outrageous beha- t
vior of our citizens “at a recent election held ]
in this city, by order of Governor Johnson, for r
the purpose of choosing three persons to rep- i
resent this county at the State Convention, i
which is shortly to assemble in Augusta.’’ This 1
will be news to the Savannah people, as none of t
us know of any such election ; but what I de- i
sired to call to your attention was the curious
coincidence between tb/s thoughts and express

Cure for tlie Cholera. s
An effectual cure for the cholera lias, it ap- l
pears, been discovered. Mr. Workcfield, stir- t
geoniit Colhiith fields, says ;It is needless now 1
to enter on the theory of litis practice, which, c
on sound data, litis been suggested by Dr. Ste- 1
vens; but, sulliee it to say, that experience lias
answered me of its efficacyaud value. After pre- 1
misiug tliat upwards ot one hundred cases, more i
or less malignant, have occurred in that prison, f
with the loss only of seventy (the first four '
prior to the adoption of the treatment) I shall >
at once describe: 1
The usual care must be taken to promote 1
warmth by friction—hot, dryfiannels, hot water <
bottles to the. feet, mustard poultices to the <
chest and other parts of the body affected by 1
cramp; but the main reliance is upon the foi- t
lowing powder, to be administered every hour >
in half tumbler of cold water, namely : Carbon
ate of soda, half a drachm; common salts, 20 l
grains; oxymuriate of potash, 7 grains. I
However .irritable the stomach may be, the i
common scidlitz powder, of effervescent soda <
draught, will, in most cases, quiet it, but when 1
it .will retain nothing in quantity, a teaspoonful 1
of the carbonate of soda should be dissolved <
in halfa tumbler of water, and given in such
quantities as the stomach of the patient can t
retain, from a teaspoonful upward, until the *
stomach is sufficiently settled to receive the s
powders. <
The success of the treatment, which in many 1
cases has been perfectly surprising, induces me 1
to hope it may be extensively adopted. In i
cases of cholera, however, the most unceasing 11
■watchfulness and attention to the patient is n
required. \
The extreme thirst of the patient while suf- <
l'ering under the malignant form of the disease -
was relieved, and great benefit experienced by t
soda water or seltzer water as a common drink, 11
in quantities not exceeding a wineglassful at a 1
time. t
The Times says :We insert this account be- i
cause we have made inquiries into the slate- t
ments which it contains, and find there is no s
exaggeration. t

Swapping Babies.—Last week a strange wo- *
man, witli an infant iu iter arms, entered a house
in Boston, and asked leave to stay a while, as 1
she was weak and tired. She also asked for
something stimulating, saying that she had re

went to get a glass of ale for the stranger, and,
on returning, found that her own infant, which
she had left asleep in the cradle, had been ta

in the endeavor to make good crops. If perse

Daring Burglarious Exploit—A Safe
Blown Open and Robbed. —We have to
chronicle this morning one of the most daring
and successful feats in burglary that has ever
been accomplished in Savannah. The store of
J. MeNish & Co., on Bryan street, between
Bull and Drayton, was night before last entered
and the safe blown open by means of powder,
find its contents pillaged to the extent of about
$.7,000. It was found that the burglars effected
an entrance into the store by breaking the glass
of a window which had a loose shutter and
raising the window latch. The operators then
drilled four holes in the door of the safe, in
which they inserted the powder and blasted
the lock off, the door being blown to pieces.
§6OO in gold, 8200 in silver, 8400 in greenbacks,
and about§lo,ooo in uenurrent money were taken
by the burglars, they making their exit by the
front door of the store. Three chisels and a
wooden mallet were found lying by the safe.
The audacity and confidence of the perpetra
tors of this job may be judged of by the cir
cumstance that a colored man, formerly em
ployed by Mr. MeNish, observing a light in the
store at about twelve o’clock-, called out to the
parties inside, supposing it to be “ Massa Mac.”
The answer was coolly returned to Idni, “It’s
not Massa Mac.” The noise of the explosion
was also heard by several parties in the neigh
borhood, and that no steps were taken to inves
tigate t4p matter at the time seems almost
unaccountable. — Savannah News <sf Herald , 25 th.
Revival op Business.—There was every
indication on Ihe streets yesterday of great
liveliness in the eommeh-ial world. This was,
perhaps, more particularly the ease with the
retail trade, though we heard of great activity
in some of the wholesale houses. Our rural
neighbors were out hi full force, and for months
there has not been sueli a vast assemblage of
carts, wagons, Ac., on the streets. Country
gentlemen tcjl us that their coming crop pros
pects arc favorable; and, while they are suffer
ing from many inconveniences, and laboring
under all sorts of difficulties brought about by
the new order of things, they hope to surmount
them all. The result of this indomitable ener
gy on their part will add greatly to the com
merce of> our city in thy summer and fall. We
are gratified to note the fact that so far as they
are enabled to do so, our merchants extend to
the farming interest liberal terms aud accom
modation. Agricultural implements and sup
plies have been sold them to be paid for when
the crop is made. When it is considered how
hard pressed our business men are in financial
matters, full credit should be given them for*
the cleverness thus exhibited. We hope and
trust, and confidently believe, that benefits
may result to botli parties.

Why the Cholera Comes from the East.
The Philadelphia Inquirer , under the above
caption, has the following:
The name Asiatic cholera indicates the in
variable origin of this dreadful disease. When,
in modern times it first appeared, about thirty
years since, there were various theories as to
its causes. Some said that in the rice diet
and light food of the Asiatics the disease took
its rise. Later observation has demonstrated
that the filthy habits and wants of personal
cleanliness ol Ihe Orientals cause the dreadful
scourge, which, commencing where the. pro
voking circumstances are most abundant, trav
els the earth wherever it finds food. Os course,
in the time of infection, the Meanly who are ex -
posed the, fata; mini, i tpMh:
the negligent, but the fact lis undisputed that.'
thorough ventilation and cleansing disarm, if
they do not prevent the pestilence.
The French Government, as our readers are
aware, some time since dispatched a commis
sion to investigate the causes ol cholera. The
conclusion readied by tlieir investigation is,
that the Mecca pilgrimage is a sort of pestilence
center. The introduction of steam navigation
has doubled the danger and the deaths. But
cholera by no means succeeds upon every an
nual pilgrimage to Mecca. So, admitting the
evils which follow the pilgrimage, we must
look to the daily careless habits ol the Orient
als for the scourge that culminates at distaut
intervals. Nothing could be farther from the
truth. Many of the much talked of ablutions
arc mere forms, not so thorough even as those
of Tittlebat Titmouse. He did wipe off the
soil with a damp towel. But thousands of the
Asiatics are crusted in dirt, which stays.with
them from childhood till they go back- to the
kindred dust in which they lived all tlieir
days in a closer relationship -tlitiu Christians
have any idea of.
A book recently published in England, the
work of a governess in the harem ol'tlie Turk
ish Sultan, represents the whole establishment
as varying only from gilded to ungilded nasti
ness. The wiyes, whom the poets would have
ns think scarce human in tlieir etherial personal
purity, are dreadfully dirty, with populous
heads, and, except at intervals, in a slovenly
dishabille which Brigham Young would never
endure. And their toilets are said to be made
without any regard to the useless trouble of
'soap and water. The poor negroes of Africa
are a thousand times as cleanly.
These facts incline us to the.opinion that the
functions of the skin need special case and at
teinion, if we would fend oti'the scourge. It is
necessary that the public authorities do tlieir
duty, that all offensive substances be removed
from the streets and lanes, and that house
holders carefully clear their premise's of all de
caying matter.
But there are those who have not the oppor- -‘
tuuity, and there are too many who have not 1
the inclination to attend strictly enough to per- !
sonal cleanliness. If public baths could be 1
established in our crowded districts, and the 1
people as well as the premises be scoured, a 1
vast benefit would result. The wearing, pf flan- ‘
nel next the skin, especially by laborers, is
another precaution which till who eaii should J
adopt; and the army shirts, now .so common, '
would facilitate the general introduction of tlie :
custom. This flannel should be often clufnged
—if daily, so much the better. It has the ad- • 1
vantage that it is easier to wash than cotton,
and thus the want of time of indigent house- ,
keepers would be favored. The sensible me
chanic or laborer who will be sure not to sleep
in the same flannel in which he has labored
through the day, and who will not wear the
same "two successive days (even though that
which he lays aside is merely ventilated), would
find it such a cheap and easy course of hygiene,
added to proper care of liis premises and rea
sonable attention to diet, a preventive not only
of cholera, but ot many other diseases. Sailors

When ouce accustomed to them they arc found

Destructive Fire at Louisville—Loss
Over SIB,OOO.
At twenty-six minutes past nine o’clock last
evening, an alarm of fire was sounded almost
simultaneously from station box No. 84, corner
of Fourth and Main, and No. 85, corner of
Third and Jefferson, the latter alarm being
given by ourselves (that is, we, the local). At
the time the fire was discovered the roofs of
two buildings were in one light blaze, and it
seemed that the entire row of buildings; reach
ing from Third to Fourth streets, all of which
were three story brick buildings, would be
destroyed, and had it not been for our efficient
lire department the loss would no doubt have
been much heavier. We were ourselves, know
ing the power of tlie steam engines, surprised
to sec the flames extinguished in so short a
time.
The fire first originated in the dnguerrenn
gallery of Win. Finley, which is situated in the
third story of tlie building belonging to Thus.
Eaches, and which was occupied by Morris
Levi as a dry goods store, the store being in
the first story and his residence iu the second,
the third was rented out to the gallery
above mentioned. At the time of the alarm,
the roof ot the building was on fire, and it was
general impression that not one of the
buildings in the row would be saved.
1 rout the roof of the house of Morris Levi the
flames soon spread to the adjoining house, oc
cupied by Simeon Bakrow as a millinery and
fancy store. Ihc loss to this party will be pro
bably heavier than that of any other. The house
occupied by M. A. Aron, which is next to that
9^ kev 1 , was also damaged to the extent ofsome
$1,500.
It must be remembered that the parties above
mentioned resided in tlie upper portions of the
stores which they occupied, so that there will
h« a considerable loss of private property The
houses occupied by Levi and Bakrow, belonged
to Thomas Eaches, while the one occupied by
M. A. Aron was the property of John L. Mar
tin’s heirs.
The following is tlie full list of the losses as
far as we were able ta ascertain them:

New York, April 23.—The Tribune's special
says: The statement telegraphed to New York
on Saturday evening, that the Reconstruction
Committee had prepared various propositions
for report, is incorrect. There was a meeting
of the committee held yesterday and more fully
attended than usual, and it is understood that
various constitutional amendments and separate
measures of legislation were proposed and de
bated, but that no comprehensive or complete
propositions were discussed, and certainly noth
ing definitely concluded upon to report "to the

o'clock, when the separate propositions sub
mitted by different members may be embodied
in form preparatory to a report. The chairman
will soon present the final report of the com
mittee, summing up the results arrived at its
investigations, and recommending some general
policy of restoration. It is possible that this
report will be accompanied by u bill or joint
resolution relating to the qualifications of Fed
eral ofiiee-holders lu rebellious States which
will embody the idea of prohibiting the politi
cal power of that section from ever being con
trolled by those who were active in the rebel
lion.

A New Feature in Marine Architecture.
Several years ago when Mr. Thomas Wiuans'
projected his wonderful cigar ship, the attention
•of the maritime world was excited for the result
of his invention, which he is still prosecuting:
But before that Is perfected another invention
lias been given the world by' Mr. George F.
Snyder, of this city, which promises to be a still
greater wonder than anything that has yet ap
peared upon the face of the waters, not except
ing even the application of steam by'Robert
Fulton for the propulsion of vessels. The ves
sel invented by Mr. Snyder is a cylinder, and
has a rotary motion. A working model of the
tessel is now lying at tlie shipyard of Messrs.
Brewster & Potter, at Canton, and the trials
made with it have been entirely satisfactory, a
speed of six miles per hour having. been made
by hand power. As stated before, the vessel is
a cylinder, through the centre of which passes
a shaft, which is' stationary, and supports the
decks for freight, passengers and machinery,
and which remain in the same- position, what
ever may be the motion of the ship.
In the working model there is a cog wheel in
tlie center of tlie lower interior surface, work
ing into a cog which entirely belts the interior,
and is the motive power propelling tlie rotary
progress through the water. It is now de
signed to build a vessel of forty feet diameter,
into which will lie placed two steam engines of
pf'ty horse power each, and with that it is ex
pected to make a speed of from forty to fifty
miles an hour. That vessel will draw, when
lying still, not more than ten or twelve iuciiesi
of water, and the draft will be reduced when
the machinery is put in motion. On the out
side surface will be paddles sat two feet apart,
besides which there will be four keels, one at
each end. and two at the center. These keels
are intended to prevent the vessel from drifting
in time of high wind and to protect the puddle
in the event that she should strike upon the
bottom. The new “ revolver,” as the style of
vessel has been called, will be of three hundred
tons burthen, and besides freight will have
capacity for about three to four hundred pas
sengers. Her steering apparatus consists of a
small enclosed boat, the how of which is
worked by pullies attached to two beams run
ning from the center shaft around to one side,
or the stern of the ship, and it is claimed that
she can be turned in the space occupied by her
length in the water.
A number of gentlemen of this city have ta
ken hold of the Uiing and will push the new
vessel to completion, so that she may he ready
to make a trial trip on tlie 4th of July next,—
A model of the new wonder is at the
office of John S. Selby, No. 71 Second
street, where it may be seen by those who feel
an interest in the advancing science of the age.
The small draft of water will render the vessel,
if successful, of incalculable value for the navi
gation of the rivers, which penetrate the heart
of the great West, while its speed far outstrips
that of any other ship. The same principle
may be applied to land vehicles on ordinary
roads, and may be guided as easily as those
drawn by horses. Some prominent engineers
who have examined the principle declare it
feasible, and much curious desire will await
tlie advent of the new vessel in the Patapseo.
The Last Volley.—Col. John S. Mosby
visited Leesburg last Monday on professional
business. Because he happened to wear a cape
in these piping times of peace which had on it
several brass buttons with the coat of arms of
Massachusetts on them, the Federal Captain in
command there declared his purpose to arrest
him and cut them oft'. Being unwilling to sub
mit to this treatment, hut disposed to do any
thin< r in reason to avoid a breach of the |>cace,
the Colonel, at the suggestion of a friend,‘con
sented to leave the burg. The captain, with
lour troopers and sixty infantry, endeavored to
intercept liis retreat, but was too late by several
moments to effect liis object, When the Colonel
rode up on the- crest of a hill, he looked hack
and saw the doughty warriors make a furious
bayonet charge upon a hay stack, which had
served to conceal him from their view when he
made his exit. The spectacle was so ludicrous
he could not repress his inclination to whoop.
He did so, and at the same time raising his hat,
he waived at parting adieu. The irate Captain
acknowledged the compliment by ordering a
leaden volley from sixty guns to be fired at the
Colonel. The bullets whistled closely, but
harmlessly, past him, and made music which
reminded him of by-gone years of strife.
We believe the Massachusetts button is the
symbol of treason, and are somewhat surprised
that the Colonel was so disloyal as to retain
one on his cape at the risk of liberty and life.

SPECIAL NOTICES.
Kir GEORGIA HOME INSURANCE COMPANY.—
It is with pleasure that we copy the following notice of
the above company from the Atlanta Sew Era. In this
community, its reliability, and promptness in immediately
paying all losses, is well known and renders it an institu
tion of pride to our citizens. Its officers are courteous
gentlemen, with years of experience in the business, to
which fact, coupled with their eminent fitness for the po
sition. its remarkable .prosperity must be mainly attribu
ted. The Era says:
Acts Speak Louder than Words.— We are gratified
to learn, on inquiry, that the Insurance Company which
paid so promptly its loss by the fire on the corner of
Whitehall and Decatur streets, is a Southern Company,
and none other than that reliable institution of our State,
The Georgia Home Insurance Company of Columbus,
of which Mr. J no. C. Whitner is Agent. The payment
was made within twelve hours after tlie firßt cry of fire
was heard, w'hilst smoke was still issuing from the ruins.
No third party came forward to sift and feel about for
flaws—hut the agent issuing the policy also makes the
payment just so soon as satisfied of its justness.
We ask our merchants and citizens to note these facts.
The cry lias been raised, that all Southern Companies
were totally ruined. The answer to this is, their invest
ments were made before the war, and were never changed.
Their loss, tlieretore, was merely the profits and tlie labors
for four years—though some, like the Georgia Home,
have even come out better than they entered the war. It
is false that they are insolvent. A most remarkable feature
of Southern Companies is the absence of “Special Agents
and “Adjusters” to Settle up lessee. They go on the pre
sumption, that the man they appoint as agent is honest
and capable, sufficieutly so to be entrusted with the re
sponsible duty of making out a policy promising to pay
you in case of loss, and sufficiently so as to pay Up losses
when they do occur. When.'therefore, volt insure with
them your last transaction is with the same man—your
friend, your neighbor, your fellow-citizen—with whom
your first occurred.
We do not mean to be sectional in our advice, but we
do think when we can build up ourselves and our own
people at the same cost and with greater advantage to
ourselves, it is our duty to do so. There are a number of
Southern companies represented here who are perfectly
reliable.
Gall on that experienced Insurance man and polite
Southern gentleman, Mr. Whitner, at McCamy A: Co. s
Drug Store, and he will give you a list that will surprise
you.

BST WE HAVE LEARNED NOT TO BE
astonished at anything. Years of experience and a
correspondence extending throughout all nationalities
of the habitable globe, have turned theories into facts
and established a basis from which we need not err.—
We are not Surprised at such facts as the following,
although the persons who write them are. We know
the persons and circumstances, henee.Jfcel at liberty to
endorse their statements:
“ Nrw Bedford, Mass., Nov. 24,1863.
Dear Sir: I have been afflicted many years with
Severe prostrating: cramps in my limbs, cold feet and
hands, and a general disordered system. Physicians
and medicines failed to relieve me. While visiting
some friends in New York'who were using Plantation
Bitters, th«y prevailed upon me to try them. 1 com
menced with a small wine glassful aftor dinner. Feel
ing better ty degrees, in a few-days I was astonished
to find the coldness and cramps had entirely left me,
and I could sleep the night through, which 1 have not
done for years. I feel like another being. My appe
tite and strength have also greatly improved by the
use of the Plantation Bitters.
Respectfully, Judith Rcssel.”
“ Keedsburt, Wis., Sept. 16,1863.
* * * “I have been In the army hospital
for fourteen months—speechless and nearly dead. At
Alton, 111., they gave me a bottle of Plantation Bit
ters. * * * Three bottles restored my speech and
cured me. * * *
C. A. Flaute.”
The following is from the manager of the Union
Home Schtol for the children of volunteers:
“ llavemeyer Mansion, 57th St.', )
New York, August 2,18G3. S
Dr. Drake: Your wonderful Plantation Bitters
have been given to some of our little children suffer
ing from weakness and weak lungs, with most happy
effect. One little girl in particular, with pains in tier
head, loss of appetite and daily wasting consumption,
on whoo ail medical skill had been exhausted, has
been entirely restored. We commenced with but a
teaspooiifttl of Bitters a day. Her appetite and
strength rapidly increased, and she is now well.
Respectfully, Mrs.O. M. Dkvob.”

believe the Plantation Bitters have saved my life.

more of thy Plantation Bitters. My wife has been
greatly benefited by their use.

Dyspepsia, and had to abandon preaching. * *
The Plantation Bitters have cured me.

ters to hundreds of our disabled soldiers with the
most astonishing effect. G. W. D. Andrews,

cured me of Liver Complaint, of which I was laid up
prostrate, and had to abandon iny business.

cured me of a derangement of the Kidneys and Uri

like a charm.

Tho Plantation Bitters mako the weak strong, the

Persons of sedentary habits, troubled with weak
