Poltfe RUltloiu—A Suß^mtlon.
A robbery occurred a night or two since
in the vicinity of the market, when, upon
the springing of a policeman's rattle, the
summons was replied to by numerous offi
cers on duty in surrounding portions of the
city, whereby their were necessa
rily left without protection. This was no
fault of the officers, to be sure, whose duty
it is* to “eonwuto the rescue” undet |ueh
circumstances ; lilt would it net bo ad-
to estgffilishpolice stations (iim
ilar to those of other cities) to which parties
arrested through the day and night might
be brought, and thereby save the police
men the excessive fatigue and difficulty of
conveying prisoners from the extreme
boundaries of the city, and at the same
time prevent populous portions .of
the town being exposed to the deeds of
depredators. A general conveying to
headquarters in time for the Recorder’s
morning levee could be arranged, and the
system would in a short time be found to
work much more advantageously, and to
the greater convenience of the police force,
than the objectionable plan in present
practice. We make the suggestion at the
solicitation of an old resident of Savannah,
and hope it may receive the attention of
the powers that be.
Uoeul Simmer*.
But one white and fifteen colored persons
were interred in Laurel Grove, and but
three in. the Cathedral Cemetery the past
week. An experienced M. D. gives it as
his opinion that the city has not in many
years enjoyed so healthy a condition.
A seaman fell yesterday from the main
stay to the deck of the ship Screamer. No
bones broken.
A policeman was fined by the Recorder
and costs for hitching his horse to the
railing of one of the squares. The officer
‘ spoke a piece,” but Justice was inexorable.
The Republican County Convention yes
terday selected the following delegates to
the Congressional Convention which assem
bles in this city to-morrow, to make nomi
nations for the Forty-third Congress: W.
M. Walsh, James Atkins, Theodore Basch,
J. E. Bryant, Wm. Cantwell, Win. Wal
lace, A. N. Wilson, Isaac Seeley, 11. W.
Halo, J. M. Simms, James Hines, 11. M.
Turner, Paul Kelly, L. B. Toomer, John
Sneed, Peter Houston, I). 11. Spearing.
The Young Men’s Democratic Associa
tion held a meeting last night for the pur
pose of arranging committees. There was
considerable speaking, and matters gener
ally were discussed. Col. W. S. Phillips
was elected Secretary.
The Johnston Light Infantry will hold a
meeting to-night.
Activity,
The bustle and commotion observed at
the hotels indicate that things are getting
lively, and that there are numerous visitors
in the city. The hotel registers also give
evidence of the fact that interior purchasers
are beginning their annual inspection of
Savannah’s business houses. It should be
borne in mind that now is the time to make
’.he acquaintance of our country cousins—
and there is no better way in which it may
be done than by a judicious system of ad
vertising in the city papers.
Jlrougliton street Stores.
The dry goods and other houses on this
street are putting on lively appearances,
prominent among which is notieed those of
•Messrs. Frank & Eckstein, Gray, O’Brien
& Cos., J. J. McGowan, K. Platshek, Thos.
Daniels, John A. Douglass, A. J. Miller &
Cos., Mrs. L. Schlamm, F. W. Cornwell, S.
S'."Miller, and others. Boxes, bales and
packages are being dail}§ ; received, which
jiives assurance of the early'opening of the
Fall season.
Runaway .nl Narrow Escape.
This morning a horse attached to a
buggy ran up Abercorn street at the top of
his speed, and when in the vicinity of Mrs.
Martin’s boarding house, on York street,
ran over a baby carriage, containing the
Child of Dr. Starbuck, breaking the car
riage in pieces, but, fortunately, without in
juring the child.
Karrow Escape.
A little son of Mr. Fredrick Otto, about
two years old, narrowly escaped death yes
terday morning while sitting in the middle
of the street playing. A horse attached to
a wagon, and driven by a small negro,
passed directly over the child, but strange
to say without touching :t.
This musical organization, the first in the
field this season, is meeting with marked
success. The company comprises, besides
several old favorites, quite a number of new
candidates top popular fevor, among whom
we notiqajWfe following lead*g perforators :
Thomas Whiffin, late Tenor of the Louisa
Pyne Opera, London, and the Pnrepa-Kosa
Troupe, New York.
Algernon Hamilton, the accomplished
Bara tone.
Ilenry Wayne Ellis, Buffo, of English
Opera Troupe.
Warren White, Richings Opera
Company.
The “Sappho,” the world-renowned child
wonder.
Blanche Gallon, Contralto, of the Galton
English Opera Company.
“May-the-Fay,” Petite Character Singer-
Eelia Ellis, Soprano.
Mrae. Ellis, of English Opera Company.
Miss M. Florence, Contralto.
G. A. Florence, Leader.
Prof. Martens, Leopold Falkenstein, and
Jules Arnot and Franz Bremer of Berlin
Orchestras.
The repertoire consists of nine operas,
eighteen operettas, five extravaganzas, five
society specialties, and four original musi
cal pieces.
A general tour of the South will be made,
the cities of Georgia and Alabama to be
visited early in the season. A letter from
Louisville, Ivy., speaks in the highest terms
of the performances of the troupe, which
warrants us in predicting for the veteran
Southern Manager a hearty reception an
the appearance in Savannah of his hew
English Comic Opera Company.
The Post Office News Depot.
We have from time to time called atten
tion to the news depot of Mr. E. M. Con
nor, at the Post Office entrance, where
can be had atr all times the latest publica
tions from all sections of the country, as
also the standard prints of Europe. There
is nothing in the newspaper or periodical
line that can not be had of Connor, as well
as whatever may be desired in the way of
school and miscellaneous books. At his
depot, corner of Montgomery and York
streets, is a well stocked Circulating Li
brary, the benefits of which can be ob
tained for a nominal price, aad to- wSri.-h
the attention of the reading public is spe
cially directed. Orders are received for
special publications, no matter how small
or insignificant the work, and promptly
forwarded to the publishers. When se
lecting your reading matter, remember the
place—at the Post Office entrance —easy
of access, and a spot where quick sales and
small profits realize a business.

A Home Appointment.
Theo. Basch has been appointed by Col
lector Atkins to a Clerkship in the Cus
tom House. We think it is a good one—
at least a home one, as the carpet-baggers
have heretofore had the preference over
the scalawags.
The Ogeccliee Rioters*

with being engaged injtheiriot at O’Brian’s
store on the Ogeechee road, August 12th,
was tried in the Superior Court this morn
ing and found guilty.
gradually approaches Savannah, meeting
on its route with tlto ‘inosf wpny;edgnted
success. The extensive colored and illus
trated posters have ntfrived, and will short
ly b$ placed upon fW city bill boards for
public inspection.? 'JJbcy will be found to
be mostly of new designs, and not the fa
miliar old cuts that have for so long been
annually stuck up by second-rate mana
gers. Mr. Carpenter, and Messrs. Andrew
Ilaight and W. W. Durand are showmen
in every sense of the word, and mean en
terprise and business. As in past years
they have only been identified with fir|t
class combinations,,*o in the present in
stance, excepting at this year they haVe
embarked with capital, and with a
view to surpassing the pretensions of all
rival concerns. If?we may judge by the
numerous newspaper notices and criti
cisms, the expecß|f show is certainly the
most gigantic establishment travelling—
the like of which As never before known
in these parts, noßny where else. Just to
think of it—six tenfe—two rings—two full
circus companies—& double menagerie—a
whole family of gowns—a steam piano<
and so on—and aft for one price of ad
mission. But wait untit the 16th
and see—for to eflbmerate the many good
things said by our and friend Ilaigbt, would
be to occupy too feuch space, if not to
peach some of thegfunny things that, to be
appreciated must lie seen.
Mr. F. R, Scott, of the Great Eastern,
has arrived, and at McConnell's
European Housed lie will shortly have
his brigade of bill iosters in motion.
Mr. Andrew ISight, the Director, and

for the advent of the Great Eastern.

Peace, to be supported by the conservative

I am perfectly willing to submit my claims
to them and abide their decision.

It is natural that people should prefer
one candidate to another, but when an of
ficer lias been tried and found all that
could he expected, then I think the public,
being satisfied with his conduct, should re
elect him. l)r. Sheftall, who is a candidate
for the office of Coroner, has been tried,
and having filled the office with honor and
credit, the voters of Chatham county
should show their good judgment by re
electing him. A Voter.
A Savannah. Priest.
We are glad to notice the arrival of
Rev. Michael Reilly, son of our worthy
citizen, Mr. Peter Reilly. Father Reilly
was educated at St. Mary’s College, Bal
timore, at which city he was ordained, and
will probably remain in Savannah. lie is
a young man of great talent, and will be a
great acquisition to the Catholic Church.

The principle of my Yoke Is a true one for secur

is concentrated over the muscles of each shoulder,
which permits the action of the muscles’ easy, un
obstructed exercise, while the stronger portLpn.of
the Yoke covers the part, where Iho,sifniii Is teeni

Is kept more closely to the body than by any other
system. In this age of groat, competition in busi
ness, it seems strange that the idea prevails that
one must compete in" PRICE only. A POOR AR
TICLE IS NEVER CHEAP, and 1 need not expect
a customer to come buck for a second lot. or to ad
vise his friends to purchase it. Tito only success
ful competition is to sell the beet article at a fair
profit, and induce my customer to pny five or ten
per cent more l'or it, proving to him. ns I easily
