The Races.
There was quite a large attendance at the
races at the Gentlemen’s Driving Park
Thunderbolt, yesterday afternoon and some
exciting sport was witnessed. There were
three entries, “Young Dick,” by S. A.-
Hughes: “Ed. Miller,” by G. E. Mathews;
“R. P. Garsed.” by S. J. Titcomb. “Young
Dick” won the race in three heats; the first
being taken by “Ed. Miller” in 1:53, and the
second, third and fourth by “Young Dick,”
in 2:52, 2:58 and 2:59. In the second heat
“Garsed” was withdrawn.
Credit to Whom It Is Due.
The beautiful decorations and embellish
ments on the arches suspended from the
main entrance to Laurel Grove Cemetery,
and from the northern and southern ap
proaches to the Confederate soldiers’ lot were
made and erected yesterday, by Mr. John
F. Daly, the landscape gardener, who has
charge of the improvements in Laurel Grove
Cemetery. The floral designs were Original,
and were aptly conceived by Mr. Daly. The
work was an' elaborate one, and in its en
tirety was considered the most artistically
elegant embellishment evever seen in Laurel
Grove Cemetery.
They All Had Them.
Two hacks filled with young men drove
through Broughton street yesterday even
ing, and after giving the loungers on that
thoroughfare an opportunity of laughing at
them, the young men assisted each other to
alight and entered a saloon. These men
represented all kmlsof drunks, illustrating
the whole progress, from the first incipient
hesitation of reason to the glorious con
fusion of ideas in the highest elevation,
thence through all the declining stages of
stupified, paralytic inaptitude down to the
horizontal pluterperfect inebriety. They
were awfully and wonderfully drunk.
Matrimonial.
There was quite a select party assembled
at the residence of Rev. Thomas O’Hara,
yesterday afternoon, to witness the solemn
ization of the nuptisl ceremony between
Mr. Joseph Bell and Miss Annie Reilly,
b >th of this city. The groom is a popular
Bay street clerk, and the bride a charming
young lady, sister of Sergt. Owen Reilly, of
the Savannah police force. The bride was
modestly attired in the customary and con
ventional nuptial costume, and won many
enc- miurns by the sweetness of her disposi
tion and her lady like demeanor. The
happy couple were the recipients of many
presents of a costly and practical nature.
They left last evening on the steamship
City of Augusta, for New York, on a bridal
tour.
A Slight Diversion.
As the crowd of people emerged from the
base ball park yesterday a flight diversion
was occasioned by a dispute between a white
and a colored bay. It wi.s all about a knife,
the ownership of which was disputed. Both
parties struggle! for a rock, and the
earnestness and volubility of speech attracted
and halted temporarily the crowd. Finally
the colored boy wrenched himself away
from his antagonist, but before he could
hurl the stone his white opponent was
handed a stick, which he used with telling
effect. He struck the young African over
the head a few times, and the blows sounded
so loud and resonant that the crowd could
not help laughing at the echo and the ulti
mate discomfitier of the darkey.

FOR SALE.
The undersigned has recently had placed
In his hands for sale the valuable Sea Island
property belonging to the late Bryan Morel,
Esq. This consists of about three thousand
acres of land on Ossabaw Island, off the coast
of Georgia.
Among those acquainted with the wonder
ful fertility of these Southern Islands, Ossa
baw is among the most favorably known. It
is particularly adapted to the growth of long
staple cotton, sugar cane, corn, potatoes and
vegetables of all kinds. The flnest Vege
tables and the earliest grown in this vicinity
are the product of some of these Sea Islands
of Georgia. .
This place is well kn iwn among the hunt
ers of this State as famous for Its game of all
kind, which abound on the Island, while the
waters in and about it are filled with fish of
all kinds, oysters, shrimp, crab, etc. During
the life time of Its late owner the Island was
the scene of many hunting expeditions, got
ten up for the benefit of his friends on the
mainland. , „ _ -
1 Portions of the Island are heavily wooded
with live oak, pine, ash, palmetto, etc. At
one time this was the objective point of the
cutters from the State of Maine, who got out
I large quanties of ship knees and shipped
them North and East.
The place is but a short sail from the village
■ of Montgomery, which is connected by rail
with Savannah.
For further particulars apply to
