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 pany, will be done by the lady of the house.” The internal revenue collection districts in the South are to be sub-divided, so as to con form to the number of Congressional districts as in the North. [From the Savannah News and Herald. 1 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 ions of this lettee-writcr and the editor of the > Savannah Republican. 1 The letter says that The Savannah Re- t at. this pretended elec- publican , of Oct. sth, r lion:# 1865, speaking of the • October election, says: > “The Union men man!- “The Union men did not 4 tested no energy, and but appear to manifest any c little exertion was made energy, and no exertion i> by them to secure extra was made on their part to r voles for their candidates, secure extra votes for their 1. * * * * 'l’iijs W as in candidates—but we must 1 strange contrast with the admit that the bearing of 11 secession candidates, who their vote distributors at t frantically seized all hesi- the polls was in strange t’ * tating voters and hustled contrast with thoße of the „ tlieni up to the ballot-box secession candidates, who r with soft words ami silly frantically seized all hesi- 1 expressions, often times tating voters, and hustled a patting the bewildered vo- them up to the ballot-box, a ter Oil the shoulder, and with soft words and silly f giving him a fond cm- expressions, often times n brace, and, in some eases, patting the bewildered , if lie voted the light ticket, voter on the shoulder, and ! throwing in a glass of giving him a fond cm- , whisky.” brace, and, in some cases, i if be voted the right ticket, r tin-owing in a glass of t whisky.” , “No Unionist was per- “Not a Unionist was mitted to deposit liis vote permitted to deposit iiis 1 without being challenged vote without being ehal in the most serutinqus lenged in the most scru nianncr by frowning seecs- titious manner by frown sionists who crowded ing secessionists who around tie- ballot-box ail crowded around the ballot day.” box all day.” “It must indeed have “We must confess tint been humiliating fur men we felt a little humiliated c who have fought for the when we were railed upon preservation id this Union to swear and kiss the Bible to be compelled to swear before men who have been v and kiss the Bible before known for years as the il those who have been sworn enemies of the Gov- v known for years as the eminent we have fought sworn enemies of the Gov- to help preserve.” eminent.” a “The most treasonable “We board somo very remarks were nnlilush- unpleasant and troasoua- t ingly and openly uttered file remarks uttered at the c at the polls, some of which polls, which perhaps are s perhaps ara worthy of worthy of mention, as re mention, as revealing the vealing the spirit and ani- ’ spirit imd animus of many mils rtf many Who voted p who voted against, the against the Union ticket. i 1 Jiujou yiekvk Giiy unttu. 1 Uiggnait with a fiaUsti.tis 1 -p wmi a banol In his barms Ins nano, declared in loud t] declared in loud tones, torids,;“Yes by G—d, I *i ‘Yes, by , I have have always been a rebel always been a reliel and and always will lie, and 1 . always will he, ami intend Intend to vote the full re to vote a full rebel ticket.’ bel ticket.’ Another said a Another said boldly, ‘I boldly,'T have taken the s have taken the oath of al- oath of allegiance, but the c legiance, but the Govern- Government of the United ~ mentofylje United States States has forfeited its con- 1 has forfeited - its contract tract with me, and by G—d c with me, and by 1 will I will foreit my obliga- It forfeit my obligations to tionstolt.’” c it.’ ” l know not who is the author of this infamous e letter, but I think the similarity of sentiment p and composition justifies a cull upon Mr. Hayes a to aid in exposing the name of the wretch who by falsehood seeks to embitter the North against t. the South. Tbuth. a 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 'I In- account of the successful application of 1 the saline treatment has been officially traus- ' mitted to Paris. s nr. < 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 cently been confined. The lady of the house 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 ken away by the visitor, and a negro baby left 1 in il* stead.’ Nothing lias been heard of the 1 wonjan since, and the affair creates great ex citement among the parties interested. f Exchange.

Crops. —Gentlemen from all sections of the country tell us that'farmers are hard at work, in the endeavor to make good crops. If perse verapee by the agricultural class of people will accomplish anything, splendid crops will be gathered next fall in this section. The wheat, it is said, never looked more promising, and if no disaster should interfere, there will be an abundant crop made. [Gainesville ( Ga.) Air Line Eagle. G. A. Mili.er, Esq.—We learn that this gen tleman (formerly editor of the Enquirer ) is about to open a Law School, at White Sulphur Springs, Ga. He informs us that this school will be opened on the 23d iust. Mr. Miller has had an excellent law education, having studied under Qne of the ablest lawyers in North Caro lina, and having been admitted to the practice by courts in which the examinations are much more severe than here. He also had the repu tation of a very good lawyer while iu the prac tice in his native State. He will open liissclfool in one of the healthiest locations of the South, and we doubt, npt that young men desiring to enter the profession will fin® it to their ad vantage to confer with Mr. Miller. [Columbus Enquirer. 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. r Atlanta Intelligencer , 25 tli. 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 choose flanne! shirts for wear in the tropics When ouce accustomed to them they arc found more pleasant than any other labric. 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: 8. Bakrow, SIO,OOO ; Morris Levi, $5,000 • M A.

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 House. The committee will meet again at 10 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.

The California and Oregon and Mexican Steamship Company will inaugurate a line of steamers between San Francisco and the mouth of the Colorado river on the 25tli of May. The coroner’s jury on the inquest held on the bodies of Samuel Knight and ten others, killed by the late explosion, found that tlieir deaths were caused by the explosion of nitro glycerine contained in a wooden box, which ar rived on the steamer Sacramento on the 13th inst., addressed to W.

The canal will be open ed on May Ist. f[Prom tlie Baltimore Gazette. 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.

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. C. & A. G.
