A Handsome Medal.
Yesterday we were shown by Mr. W. N.
Nichols the “R. D. Guerard Medal,” pre
sented to Company “A” Savannah Volun
teer Guards, to be shot for on the 22d of
February, next. It is in the shape of a Mal
tese cross, and contains on the arms of the
cross the initials “8. V. G.,” while in the
centre is shown the ccat of arms of the State,
surrounded by flags, beautifully inlaid in
colors. On the reverse side is the following
inscription: “Presented to Company A,
S. V. G-, by Exempt Member R. G. Gtier
ard, February 22nd, 1885. Best shot for cur
rent year.” It is one of the handsomest
medals ever seen in this city, and is on ex
hibition at the store of Messrs. Fretwell and
Nicholls.
An Unseaworthy Craft.
It will be remembered that on the 24th of
October last the Italian bark Guiseppira
Vincenzo arrived in port in a leaking con
dition. She hailed from Jamaica and had
on board a cargo of logwood bound for
Trieste, Austria. A survey was held on her
after a number of repairs had been made
and she was pronounced seaworthy. This
being done, she was reloaded and had been
awaiting the necessary sailing papers from
New York for several days, when the sailors
discovered that she was leaking afresh.
Finding this to be the case, the sailors called
on Mr. Ramon Salas, Italian Consul, and in
formed him that the vessel was unseaworthy
and in its present condition they would not
sail on her. Thus the matter stands at
present, but a second survey will be held
and a report of her condition made known
The master of the vessel is Capt. G. Scattiola
The sailors caunot, of course, be blamed for
refusing to go to sea in an unseaworthy craft
or one even about which there is any doubt

THE SAVASNAH DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, JANUARY 22, 1885.
CABL SCUtIiZ,
The City to Show Him Distinguished Con
sideration.
Yesterday the following communication
was received by his honor the Mayor:
Savannah, Jan. 21, 1885.
’ To the Honorable the Mayor and Aidermen of
Savannah:
Gentlemen: —The undersigned, on behalf
of a number of their German-American fel
low citizens, respectfully beg to call your
attention to the approaching visit of the
Hon. Carl Schurz to this city.
Distinguished alike by the prominent
position which he has occupied in the Na
tional Government and by the decisive in
fluence which he has wielded in moulding
public opinion. Mr. Schurz visits the South
ern States for the purpose of lecturing on a
subject of special interest to this section, to
wit: “Education.” Our sister cities in South
Carolina, estimating his services at their
true value, have hastened to prove by the
action of their governing bodies, the con
sideration in which he is held. Similar
distinction conferred on him by your Hon
orable body would meet the approval of the
citizens of Savannah, and would be hailed
with peculiarsatisfaction by those who claim
German descent, and who look on the Hon.
Carl Schurz as the most eminent represen
tative of their nationality on this contin
nent.
Very respect’y your obed’t servants,
Henry Blun,
John Nisbet,
Chas. Gas-man,
Ed. Karow,
David Weisbein.
At the meeting of Council last night the
matter was taken up, and the Mayor ap
pointed a committee of three from the
Council, consisting of Aidermen Hamilton,
Derst and Hamlet to act with the body o:
citizens whose names appear at the end of
the above letter, to arrange for the recep
tion of this distinguished gentleman.
Mr. Schurz lectures at the theatre on
Saturday night, and the City Council will
attend in a body. At the meeting of the
joint committee held to-day at the office of
Captain Henry Blun, the following action
was taken :
It was decided that the gentleman, in ac
cordance with his own wishes, be received in
a quiet and unostentatious manner and be
escorted to his hotel. A telegram was sent
to him asking when he would arrive and
how long he would remain. The meeting
then adjourned to meet again as soon as a
reply to the message was received. At 2:20
o’clock Capt. John Derst, in whose name the
telegram is to come, had received no reply.
And thus the matter rests at present.
THE MUNICIPAL ELECTION
Count Completed at Last —Straight Ticket
Successful Throughout—Dr. William
Duncau Elected Chairman
of Council.
Although the count of the municipal
election proceeded very slowly, there is an
end to everything, and the result was reach
ed last evening about 6 o’clock.
As foreshadowed in yesterday’s Times,
the regular ticket was successful by a large
majority.
The race for the chairmanship of the
board was closely contested by Dr. Duncan
and Mr. Herman Myers. At the end of the
count of the third box the latter gentleman
was one vote ahead of the ticket, but from
the commencement of the count of the
fourth box Dr. Duncan began to gain, and
when it was finished Dr. Duncan had re
ceived 1,177 votes, while Mr. Myers’ vote
was 1.151, giving Dr. Duncan a of
26. Up to the close of the count a large
crowd was assembled in the room and much
interest was manifested. The r om was t! en
cleared and closed until the verification of
the tally sheets could be completed. Much
enthusiasm was expressed at the result.
The vote was deposited, according to the
form of law, with the Clerk of Council.
Following is the result:

Rev. Mr. Strong’s Lecture.
The second lecture of the series proposed
to be given in this city by Rev. Charles H.
Strong, on “The Romance and Art of Early
Nations,” was delivered last night at St.
John’s Parish Hall by that gentleman to a
large audience. His subject was, “The Art
of the East, or Among the Wonders of
Ninevah, Babylon and Persepolis,” and, as
may be inferred, was highly instructive and
entertaining, and thoroughly enjoyed. Mr
Strong’s attractive style as a lecturer was
of itself sufficient guarantee that such
would be the case, and he added to the en
tertainment very materially by illustrating
his remarks with 110 appropriate views
shown by tbe oxy-hydrogen light.
After showing a large map of the coun
tries to be discussed, he next showed up the
wonders of ancient Ninevah. The palaces,
temples, and works of art generally, of that
interesting land, were so graphically por
trayed that the listener m ght readily
imagine he was actually taking a trip
through historic regions. The art of Assyria
was compared to that of Egypt, which
formed the subject of the first lecture, and
was a very interesting feature of the dis
course. The old library of Assyria discov
ered at Ninevah, formed a subject which
. commanded general attention, and a de
scription of the old books made of baked
clay, was very interesting. The ruins of
Persepolis, which contained the gems of the
art of Persia, and which were de
stroyed by Alexander the Great,
were also dilated on, "and displayed
by the oxy-hydrogen light, to the enjoyment
of all present. In an article necessarily as
limited at this it will be impossible to do
the lecture or lecturer justice. These lec
! tures have cost Mr. Strong much money and
I labor, and are as complete as it is possible
' to make them. They should be seen and
heard to be appreciated. During the course
of the delivery of the lecture last night Mr.
C. W. King, of St. John’s choir, entertained
the audience with a song, rendered in his
> well known excellent style, and which called
s forth a hearty encore. He was accompanied I
by Mrs, King on the piano.
A LONG-FELT WANT.
A First Class Restaurant at the S., F. &
W. Depot.
The restaurant and lunch room which has
for some time past been under course of
construction at the Savannah, Florida and [
Western Railway depot, has about reached
completion, and the first fire was built
and the first meal cooked there to-day. A
Times reporter walked through the build
ing this morning and took a mental note of
everything going on. The store room is
tilled to overflowing with every commodity
usually found in such a place, and of
the best quality. The kitchen is
large and commodious and is supplied with
a magnificent Duparquet range capable of
cooking meals sufficient to serve 300 people
at one time. There are two large hot water
reservoiis, a commodious steam table, with
bright tin dishes, to keep things warm, a
plate heater, and a broiler of latest design.
The pantry is supplied with crockery of the
class known as “hotel.” The supply is q ii.e
liberal and presents a neat appearance.
The dining hall is supplied with from
five to eight tables of different
sizes, and capable of seating as many as 60
guests at one time. The hall is lighted with
gas, coming from a neat chandelier; the
floor is well supplied with druggets, and
several mirrors of more than ordinary size
adorn the walls. The lunch room is fur
nished with a crescent counter, around which,
without crowding, 75 people can stand at (
one time. Everything kept in a first- I
class restaurant can be found here in
a few days, as this department has
not yet been opened. The Railway has
leased the building to Mr, George D,
Hodges for the term of one year. It is in
tended by him some time next week to give
an informal dining to the officials of the
road, and several other prominent gentle
men of the city.
The Savannah, Florida and Western
Railway is to be congratulated upon the
step which it has taken in the fitting up a
first-class establishment of this
kind. It is well spoken of by all
who have tr ken notice of it, and will receive
the patronage of a large proportion of the
traveling public, besides the numerous
clerical force employed at the offices of the
Railway.
THE COLD WEATHER.
Driving Northern Tourists Southward.
A talk with the passenger agents, hotel
keepers and others in a position to know
whereof they speak, puts a Times reporter l
in possession of the fact, that tourist travel I
has at last started up, although somewhat
late in the season. The number stopping
here from day to day is now about equal to :
' that of last year. The passenger trains of'
the Charleston and Savannah, and Savannah
Florida and Western Railways come and
depart each day well laden with passengers,
seeking a warmer climate. A prominent
hotel man with whom a large
proportion of this class of travel
stops told the reporter that the average
tourist comes here, stops a few days, sees
the city and then goes on to Florida. Re
maining there until the spring he returns
here and spends a few days before
going North. Thus Savannah is only a sort
of roadside inn, at which a short stop is
made.
“Do you not think that a good hotel, such
as is being talked of, would have the effect
of stopping the tourists here during the sea
son ?”
“Not at all, though it might be filled for
a short time. The reason is that the
climate is too cold and chilly. I have guests
here frequently who say they like the city,
l ; ke the ho els and like the people, but
they think it too cold. You see people who
are seeking a balmy climate do not want
even to undergo the rigors of a few days’
bad weather. How long will this
travel continue ? Oh, I should say
until the 10th of May. That is the usual
time up to which they remain in Florida.
After that time travel ceases for the sum
mer.”
LAYTON HEARD FROM.
He Denies the Charge that He Absconded I
from Savannah, and Claims He Has
Over #SOO Due Him in
This City.
On the afternoon of the 13th inst. an
article appeared in the Daily Times in
reference to A. G. Layton, a hotel desk
manufacturer, leaving a number of sorrow
ing creditors in Savannah. It seems that
Layton went from here to Charleston,
thence to Columbia, in which city he first
saw copied in the Charleston News and
Courier the account of his doings in Savan
nah. He returned to Charleston Tuesday
night, and on Wednesday engaged in pre
paring ast a ement for publication. This is
published in the Charleston News and
Courier of this morning, and is as follows :
LAYTON’S STORY.
“I arrived in Savannah about the 2d of
November, and entered at once into my busi
ness as desk manufacturer. I employed an
architect, who designed the Pulaski House
desk, and the building of which I immedi
ately placed in the hands of J. J. McMahon.
Mr. McMahon built this desk for the sum of
$125 for the wood work. The glass work was
done by Andrew Hanley, the receipts for
which work, to the amount of $152,1 have in
my possession. Afterwards I started on the
Harnett House desk. Since the time of the
election I had been drinking pretty heavily, ■
and when removing from the Pulaski House
t > the Harnett House was indebted to the
Pulaski House in the sum of $93, but I had I
placed my desk in, with gas fixtures and
everything complete, and everything paid, I
as far as the desk was concerned. The Har
nett House desk was to be a single desk, j
seventeen feet long, containing thirty ad- er
tisements, of which space valued at $l3O is i
yet vacant. The Harnett House desk was
placed in position before I left Savannah, but
the spaces above mentioned were not yet
filled. The Screven House desk, of which
one whole side has not yet been sold, is worth
to me S6OO, and with notes held by Mc-
Mahon, John Nicolson, and others, leaves a
balance credit to me, after every debt is paid
in the city of Savannah, of $503.
‘By the advice of friends, given only ten
minutes before the train left, I was induced
to leave the city and get. sobered up, as my
business was going to the dogs through
drinking. 1 left the city and came to Char-
I leston on the Monday afternoon train, regis
tered at the Pavilion Hotel, my name ap-
pearing with those of other guests in the
Newsitnd Courier of Wednesday, 14th inst.
I remained here and refitted the Pavilion
Hotel desk, which 1 placed here ten yeats
ago, then started on my way back to Savan
nah, but missed the train, and decided
while at the depot, to go on to Columbia. I
went to Columbia, arriving there on Friday,
j the 16th inst., and went immediately to the
Grand Central Hotel, where I had also
placed a desk ten years ago. In proof of
this fact I remarked to the clerk before
taking out a glass, the proprietor of which is
dead, that I would find a newspaper under
it which I had placed there ten years ago
On opening the desk I took out the paper—
an old Union Herald of March 2,1875.
“On Saturday morning I was much sur
prised, on the News and Courier being I
brought to me, to find that it contained a
statement that I had swindled my victims
out of a thousand dollars in the city of Savan
nah. 1 immediately placed my aflairs in
the hands cf Messrs. Monteith and Ladson,
and finding that other papers had circulated
I the same statement, 1 gave instructions to
Messrs. Monteith and Ladson to at once
commence proceedings against these papers,
and vindicate my character. 1 finished my
work in completing the desk at the Grand
Central Hotel, made contracts for placing a
desk twenty feet long in the same hotel, also
one sixteen feet long in the Pavilion Hotel
in Charleston, and am now on my way to
Savannah to complete my other desks.” * *
