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 cil, as expressed in the canons.

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.— Savannah Setvs. 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. Pious old party—“And now, Mrs. Stubbies, I've one important question to ask. Does not Satan oftimes tell you that you are not n Christian?” Mrs. Stab bins—“Yea, 'ce do so.” P, Q.

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. The Freedman’s Bank Commissioners have filed' a bill for the sale of the Young Men’s Christian Association building for money loaned for its erec tion. The jury in the case of'Eaton vs. the Baltimore aud Potomac Road for refusal to carry the plaintiff on an excursion ticket a few hours after date rendered a verdict for S3OO. Eaton sued for $5,000. The case will be appealed. 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.” FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. NEWS FROM OYER THE WATERS. Great Britain. London, January B. —Belgrave Cotton Mills, near Oldham, Lancashire, con taining 50,000 spindles, has been des troyed by fire. Loss, $250,000. Germany. London, January B.— The Vienna cor respondent of the Standard says all in Vienna liable to serve in case of war are ordered to hold themselves in readiness to join their respective corps in forty eight hours. His physician says Von Arnim is too ill to go to prison. The Government re gards this certificate insufficient, and the Count is ordered to prison. The American New Year, From An English .Stand-Point. New Yobk, January B. —A London dispatch says an editorial in the Tele graph says the unanimous resolution of the House of Representatives declaring it to be the manifest disposition of the men who fought in the late civil war to join hands as one people, is a most aus picious ushering in of the American New Year, and one of the most cheering cele brations in the history of America. Tracking Tbomamen’s Accomplices. The police of Berlin, being in posses sion of the private correspondence of Thomassen, of the Bremerhaven dyna mite plot, seem to have come upon the tract of some of his. accomplices who visited boarding houses patronized by English and American tourists. The police are searching for Dr. Medworth, who, it would seem, from information in their possession, was evidently an ac complice of Thomassen. Turkey. Vienna, January B. —Two thousand eight hundred insurgents tried to sur prise Mostar, but were repulsed and al most entirely destroyed. London, January B.—The Pall Mall Qazette's special telegram from Berlin says Andrassay’s proposals are substan tially identical with the suggestion made by tbe foreign consuls assembled at Mostar last Autnmn. They are designed to remedy the grievances they indicated. The question of guarantees is postpon ed until the Sublime Porte indicates his acceptance or rejection of the proposals. Berlin, January B.—Count Andras say’s note in regard to proposed reforms in the Sultan’s vassal provinces makes no definite proposal for controlling the ex ecution of these reforms, but it is stated that he proposes a virtual control through the supervision of tbe Consuls and re ports of Ambassadors. Peril* of tbe Sea. London, January B. —A bark, name unknown, is ashore on Ship Wash sands. Her sitnation is similar to that of the Switzerland. Twelve persons were seen aboard. Approach impossible. Later. —The vessel ashore on Ship Wasb Sands, in the North Sea, is the bark Hunter, from Christiana, for an English port. The crew has been saved. COTTON. 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. Local and Business Notices.
