The annual meeting of the City Coun
cil, for the election of city officers, was
held in the Council Chamber, last eve
ning, at half-past seven o’clock. Pres
ent : Mayor Kates, Messrs. Meyer,
Thompson, Sibley, O’Donnell, Evans,
Ponruelle, Philip, Young, Bennett,
Foster, Hill and Walker.
On motion the reading of the minutes
was dispensed with.
The Mayor said this was the regular
meeting for the election of city officers.
He appointed Messrs. Meyer and Foster
tellers to conduct the election. The
real election was in caucus, Friday
night, and the nominal election was
only held last evening to legalize the
action of the cancns.

following result :

plicant, Mr. Jas. W. Walker, the pre

He, therefore, moved that the election
of Keeper of the Magazine be postponed
until this proposition could be consid
ered.
Mr. Thompson said it seemed to him
that such a movement at this time was
decidedly irregular. It would be de
feating the wish of majority of Coun

moved to lay the resolution on the table.

of the Fourth Ward, asking Council for
the lot of No. 8 engine house, on Broad

THE RESUMPTION ACT.
A MwliM in Cleveland, Ohio, lo Swore Its j
Repeal.
Cleveland. 0., January B.—A meet
ing will be held here the 13th instant for
the purpose of considering what meas
ures are neoessary to secure the repeal j
of the aat oi the last Congress kuown
as the Resumption act. A memorial to
Congress has been extensively circulated !
iu this city, and received the signatures
of a very large number of prominent i
business' men, petitioning the repeal of j
so much of the act as provides for the
payment of United States legal tender |
notes in coin upon the Hast day of Janu
ary, 1879, and authorizes the" Secretary j
of* the Treasury to sell and dispose of ‘
bonds of the United States for the pur-;
pose of enabling him to redeem such ]
legal tender notes: also representing
that, in the judgment of the petitioners, j
the enforcement of the resumption
clause of said act would be exceedingly
disastrous to the business of the Conn

The Democratic caucus adjournedj
without choosing a Senator from Ken-1
tacky.
Tight times are not confined to this
sublunary sphere. The other night there
was a tremendous ring about the moon.
It was a fair, square promise of a severe
storm, and everybody prepared for it;
but after several days of vacillating
policy, the matter was finally compro
mised at about thirty cents on the dol
lar.
DASTARDLY OUTRAGE.
A Citizen •fSummerville Ameinalnl in Hl’
Own Hmmc.
Communities are sometimes shocked
by details of fiendish outrages occurring
in their midst, but we feel assumed that
none more dastardly has ever taken
place anywhere than one which dis
turbed the quiet of the village of Sum
merville last Friday night. Dr. C. C.
Pritchard, a native of Charleston, long
a resident of Snmmerville, a practicing
physician, and a highly esteemed and
respeeted citizen of the county, lives in
what was formerly the residence of Mr.
Joshua W. Butt, on Camming street, in
that village, nearly opposite to the late
residence of Governor Camming, de
ceased, and in close proximity to other
residences. Dr. Pritchard is about sixty
five years of age. Friday night he was
aroused by a gentle tinkle of the door
bell. Taking it for granted tnat some
one bad called with a message for
him to make a professional call, he
hastily answered the summons, without
waiting to dress. Before he reached the
ball door the bell again rang, this time
as gently as that first. A moment after
wards the Doctor opened the door. As
be was in his night dress, however, and
the night air was very chilly, he only
opened it a part of the way and put his
head out, sheltering bis body behind the
door. Instantly he received a terrible
blow npon his forehead from a sharp
knife in the bands of someone who
stood without. Utterly unprepared for
such a villanions assault and staggered
by the force of the blow, Dr. Pritchard
released the knob of the door and fell
to the floor. As he was falling or after
he fell—he is not certain which—he was
again attack savagely with the knife by
the assassin. He called as londly as be
could under the circumstances for
“Henry,” a small colored boy in his em
ploy. His daughter, Mrs. Bradley, heard
him fall, and supposing that he had
stumbled over a chair went ont
into the hall to see what was
the matter. She saw her father
prostrate and a man stooping over
him. As soon as the assassin saw
her he walked out into the front piazza
and slammed the door. Even then Mrs.
Bradley suspected no foal play, but
tbougat the man had retired through
consideration for herself, as she was
clad in her night dress. As soon as she
went up to her father, however, she saw
that his face was covered with blood.
Dr. Pritchard was aided to his room as
soon as possible and a messenger dis
patched to Augusta for Dr. Henry F.
Campbell. Upon Dr. Campbell’s arri
val he proceeded immediately to exam
ine the wounds upon Dr. Pritchard’s
head. He fi undone wound on the left
side of the forehead, about two inches
and a half in length and penetrating to
the skull, which, however, was not frac
tured. The other wound was also on
the forehead, but was not so long. The
patient complained of a pain in the back
of the neck, the muscles having been
bruised by the shock of the fall. The
wounds are considered serious on account
of the age of the patient and the shock
to the system from the sudden attack
made upon him. The intention of the
assassin was evidently to mnrder Dr.
Pritchard, and then rob the house; such
is the Doctor’s opinion. Fortunately
Dr. Pritchard only put his head out, and
the assailant was therefore unable to
strike his body, A third blow would
probably have been struck but for the
Doctor’s calling “Henry,” whom the
assassin, in all probability, thought was
a mac. Mrs. Bradley’s appearance also
disconcerted him. Mrs. Bradley is
satisfied that the assailant was u negro.
Soon after the assault was made, Mr.
Haekle, Marshal of Summerville, was
notified. Yesterday morning informa
tion was also lodged with Chief Chris
tian, of the police force. Daring the
day several negroes were arrested, on
suspicion, among them a man named
Larry Shepherd. This party had
a difficulty with Dr. Pritchard on
Thursday, on account of Shepherd’s
son, who was employed by the Doctor,
The matter will be closely investigated,
aud every effort made to arrest the per
petrator of the dastardly outrage.
BALTIMDRK AND SAVANNAH STEAM
SHIP LINE.
We are pleased to chronicle the fact
that the recent sale of the* steamships
Saragossa and America, of the late Bal
timore and t-.avannah Steamship Compa
ny, will insure regular, rapid and pleas
ant communication between the two
ports. The Merchants’ and Miners’
Transportation Company, by whom the
line will be hereafter operated, is one of
the oldest and best managed steamship
companies in the country, and at present
have fine steamships plying between
Baltimore and Norfolk, and Providence,
Rhode Island, and other points. The
line is composed now of nine splendid
vessels, to-wit: The John Hopkins, Wil
liam Crane, Blackstone, William Law
rence, McClellan, George Appold, Sara
gossa and America. Some of these ships
have carrying capacity for four thousand
five hundred tples of cotton, and will
make the trip between Savannah and
Baltimore in forty-eight hours, several
hours faster than railroad time. The com
pany propose to mako semi-weekly trips
between Savannah and Baltimore, and
oftoner should the business justify it.
This, it is believed, will be the case, as
the trade with Baltimore is increasing
monthly, and the rapid growth of the
Monumental City as a cotton market
will have the tendency to stimulate
business between the ports. The com
pany have every facility to carry out
what arrangements may be rendered ne
cessary in the future in the way of in
creased transportation. In the mean
time, the regular semi-weekly trips will
be sufficient for nil purposes, and ship
pers aud merchants may congratulate
themselves upon now having constant
communication with Baltimore of the
most satisfactory character. The steam
ships are well officered and in thorough
order, possess excellent passenger ac
commodations, commodious freight
room, and are fast; and when regularity
iu their sailing is taken into considera
tion, it may be asked, what more conld
be desired in a steamship line ?
Messrs. J. B. West A Cos., the enter
prising, progressive and accommodating
agents at Savannah, announce that they
will take freight for Baltimore, Norfolk,
Provdence, Fall River, Lowell, Lawrence,
and the principal New England manu
facturing towns. Through bills of lading
will be signed for cotton destined to the
above named points, also to Liverpool
by the Allen aud Beaver lines, and to
Bremen, Moscow and St. Petersburg by
the North German Lloyd line from
Baltimore. The rates of freight and
passage will be as low as by any other
route. The Saragoesa, an old favorite
at this port, with the genial Capt.
Hooper in command, will be the pioneer
as it were, of the new line, and will
leave Savannah ea the 12th instant.
She is expected here in a few days, and
will bring with her anew shaft *for the
America which is now lying at the
wharf.
The Baltimore agent is Mr. A. L.
Huggins, and with such an enterprising
aud experienced firm to represent their
interests in SavaDnah, it may be safely
assumed that the line will not only
prove popular with merchants and
travelers, but will be as successful in
increasing the Southern trade with
; Baltimore, always and under all circum
| stances the South’s firm ally.
We direct attention to the advertise
ment which appears elsewhere.—

FIFTY LIVES SACRIFICED.
Official Investigation af the Waco Disaster—
The Agent* Liable for Carrying Petroleum.
New Yoke, January 4. —Supervising
Steamboat Inspector. Addison Low, of
this district, has sent his report on the
burning of the City Waco, off Galves
ton, on the night of November 8, last,
by which 48 lives were lost, to Washing
ton. After reviewing the testimony he
says that the conclusion of the local
board of Galveston, to the effect that
the tire originated in the ship’s cargo
from material that would ignite by fric
tion or spontaneous combustion, and
that coming in contact with some sub
stance it cansed an explosion, killing or
stnnning the passengers so, that if any
escaped, there was no chance of saving
their lives in snch a sea as was then run
ning, was justified in some respects by
the testimony. He says that the burn
ing of the foremast nnder the deck and 1
the length of time it would take to bum
is conclusive evidence that the fire orig
inated under the deck and burned for
some time before being discovered. *He
thinks it would have been good judg
ment on the part of the Captain to have
kept the ship under way, standing off
and on till he could have crossed the
bar in safety, inasmuch as immunity
from accident during a long voyage
causes the ship's crew to become care
less unless kept constantly on the alert,
and the setting of the night-watch un
der these circumstances is dangerous to
the safety of passengers. He concludes
that Messrs. Mallory A Cos., agents of
the line, are liable to the penalties of
the law for carrying petroleum, and
called the attention of the department
to the unsatisfactory and indefinite pro
visions of the law' in relation to the
I transportation of that article.

LATEST FROM THE FEDERAL
CAPITAL,
lafiu Ration, Short—House Bmutm
tear—Tonceamuioa of Vessels at Pert
Reral.
Washington, January B. —Rations are
short at the Red Clond agency, on ac
confft, it is said, of the exhanstion of
the appropriation. The Indian Com
missioner hopes to avoid trouble by is
suing rations as usual until an appro
priation special to bridge over between
now and the end of the fiscal year.
F. Frennd is elected restaurateur to
the House. It required. forty-seven
ballots in committee to settle it.
The concentration of vessels at Port
Royal, South Carolina, is iu pursuance
of the general plan of the Secretary of
the Navy to make that port headquar
ters of the North Atlantic station.
Among its advantages are a health
ful climate and harbor capacity
for naval drills. The Secretary
intends to have the home squadron
larger than those abroad, because he be
lieves in being prepared for any emer
gency which may arise from present
difficulties in Cuba. While there is no
official announcement of the condition
of affairs between this country and
SpaiD, it is believed in well informed
circles that the uncertain tenure which
Spain has npon Cnba may canse her to
become involved with the United States
when she sees she can no longer hold
the island, and thus part with it
as a matter necessity. An
other reason given for ordering
vessels from Northern rivers and har
bors to Port Royal is to free them from
ice daring the Winter. In case of emer
gency it would not do to have them
frozen np. Sbawmnt, Dictator, Pawnee
and Pinta are now at Port Royal, and
Congress and Juniata are en route.
Other vessels will be ordered to Port
Royal from Northern ports and abroad.
The Marion, now at Portsmouth, and
Vandalia, at Boston, will ma .e Port
Royal instead the point for their West
India ernise.

A Higlily Interesting Epistle From .Hr. Bri
tow Concerning “Striped and Fancy Italian
Cloth.”
The Secretary of the Treasury has ad
dressed tbe following letter to the Col
lector of Customs at New York: “Your
letter of the 9th ultimo is received, fur
ther relating to the classification of cer
tain so-called striped and fancy Italians
which, by Department decisions of Au
gust 29th, 1874, and August 18th, 1875,
were held to be liable to duty at the
rate of fifty cents* per pound and thirty
five per cent, ad valorem, as manufac
turers were not otherwise provided for.
The question having been lately again
raised by certain importers thatthegoods
although “striped and fancy” were du
tiable under the provision for “real or
imitation Dalian cloth” at the square
yard rates, the Department submitted
the same to you, accompanied by certi
ficates from manufacturers of the goods,
with samples, so that the appraiser
might give an opinion on the new evi
dence. The report of the appraiser is
favorable to the viT*Ws of the importers
aud manufacturers, but, for reasons
presently stated, not accepted as conclu
sive. After the careful consideration
given to the matter prior to the promul
gation of the decision of August
18th, 1875, and in view of the
provision of section 2 of the act
of March 3, 1875, entitled an act re
stricting the refund of customs, dnties,
Ac., the Department is of the opinion
that the interests of the Government
will be best served by leaving the ques
tion to be tried by the Courts, where, it
is understood, several suits involving
the same question are now pending.
The United States Attorney atNew York
will be requested to take the proper
steps for securing an early trial of one
of these suits in order that the import
ers may suffer no unnecessary delay.”

Official Returns of the Department of Agri
culture—What saj Yon to 4v050,000 Bales?
Washington, January B.—The statis
tician of the Department of Agriculture
has completed the compilation of official
returns for the past month, and finds
correct the general assumption of a
lower yield of lint in proportion to seed
cotton. Only two States, Arkansas and
Texas report a larger proportion than
iu 1874. The Atlantic States, which
have previously made low estimates of
aggregate prod notion, all return a smaller
yield of lint to seed in comparison with
the previous crop, and none of them
over thiry pounds to each one
hundred pounds of seed. The ave
rage decrease in all the States is four
per cent. This redaction is attributed
in most oases to excessive moisture and
resultant imperfect development of the
boll, in some, to the effect of early
drongth in preventing full maturity.
Cotton grown in fields heavily dr> ass i
with commercial fertilizers is fonna to
have a greater proportionate develop
ment of seed than of lint. The average
quality of fibre is somewhat lower than
last year. Arkansas and Texas famish
the only exceptions to this statement,
though the average depreciation is
slight in Louisiana and Alabama. It is
greatest in Mississippi and the Atlantic
States. The proportion of the crop
gathered on the first of December
was 90 per cent., as reported,
a§ follows : North Carolina, 89; South
Carolina, 95; Florida, 93; Georgia, 92;
Alabama, 87; Mississippi, 75; Louisiana,
83; Texas, 94; Arkansas, 76; Tennessee,
78. In analyzing the monthly cotton
reports of the season the average condi
tion.from Jane to October is made 93}
per cent, against 83 in the same per
cexh of 1874. This would indicate a
crop of about 4,400,000; bales, with an
equally favorable Autumn and an equal
proportion of link The )ossef4 percent,
in yield of lint made a redaction
of 176,000 bales, and the difference in
maturing and gathering since October
points to a farther reduction of 2 to 4
per cent, with a margin of 100,000 bales
for contingencies after the first week in
December. The season’s reports, taken
together, indicate a crop of not less than
4,050,000 bales nor more than 4,150,000.

Atlanta, Qa., December 29,1868.
DB. J. BRADFIELD:
Dear Sib—l take pleasure in stating that, some
time previous to the late war, I used, with the ut
most success, on a servant girl, your Female Regu
lator, prepared then at Bradfield’s Drug Store, West
Point, Ga. She had been suffering severely from
suppressed menstruation and this medicine soon
restored her to health. She is to-day living in At
lanta sound and well. I will state farther, that I
know of its being used with equal success in other
cases. Ido not hesitate to endorse your preparation
for the purpose for which you recommend it.
Yours truly, JNO. C. WfIITNER.
