Special to the Times by 8. & A. Line.)
Savannah, Ga., May 11.—A very im
portant decision was rendered in tho
United Stati's Circuit Court in this
city yesterday. It seems, that some
timo ago tho county commissioners
of Glynn county, issued bonds for the
purpose of building anew court
house and jail,and for making other
improvements. These securities
were for tho most part negotiated, in
this city. In tho absence of any pro
vision on the part of the commission
ers to pay tho interest on theso obli
gations ns they fell due, suit was
brought in tho Circuit Court, and
yesterday Judge Erskinc Issued a
peremptory writof mandamus, requir
ing the commissioners to leavy a
special tax upon tho property in
Glynn county this year, sufficient to
pay all costs, and twenty-five per
cent of the judgment, and the same
for each succeeding year until llto
debt is cancelled.

I London, May 11. —The verdict of the
coroner's jury over the victims of tlie
Schiller disaster on yesterday was,
“found drowned” ; not “accidentally
drowned,” as reported last night.
New York, May 11.-Ono of the
most singular and touching incidents
connected with the sailing of the
Schiller was that concerning Mrs.
Covorly and her daughter Atny.
Henry J. Gillian, a son of Henry Gil
lian, master painter of the Eagle
Company, being detained by business
of the steamer, remained on board
until it reached Sandy Hook, where
the idiot left tlie ship. Mr. Gillian
accompanied tho pilot. He had be
come acquainted with Mrs. and Miss
Coverly, and they, forewarned by
some mysterious presentiment, were
anxious to leave the vessel on tho
| pilot’s boat. They were dissuaded,
however, by Mr. Walter and Mr. Gil
lian, and determined to remain, al
though their trunks wore packed and
ready to be carried on deck. They
sent letters to their friends, who re
side in East Forty-third street, by
| Gillian, and as he descended to the
pilot boat they hallooed out that
they would never see the Highlands
again.

Not Heart! From.
New York, May 11. The arrival of
the steamship Canma, from Bermu
da, yesterday, with no tidings of the
over due steamship Metropoilis, dis
sipated tlie hopes, entertained by
many persons, that the missing
steamer would be hoard from. The
story lias been that, on account of the
heavy northwest winds which have
prevailed during the past two weeks,
the Metropolis -having to depend
upon small sails had been driven off
the coast, and had returned to her
starting place.
The passengers left oil the Metrop
olis, after those taken off by the
bark Jacob, were: Mrs. Wm. Ing, of
Baltimore, four small children, a sor
vant, and Mrs. Wm. T. James, travel

The Trouble Immiff the Pennsylvania
Miners.
Wiekesbarre, Pa., May 11. About
thirty men went to work in Hutchin
son’s mine this morning. They
marched from their homes in a body
and were armed with spikes and re
volvers. Crowds of men, women and
boys followed them, with threats and
imprecations, and were only deterred
from acts of violence by the weapons
of the workmen. The women were
particularly bitter with invectives
and abuse at a point in the march,
which nearly precipitated a conflict.
Threats were made to bring a crowd
this p. m., when the men came out of
the mine large enough to mob them.
Through fear of this the authorities
were called on this morning by Mr.
Hutchinson for protection, and a posse
is now being raised to go to Kingston
this afternoon.

in Schuylkill mining region is grow

THE WAR CLOUD—THE CZAR FOR PEACE—
A GENERAL DISARMING PROPOSED.
Paris, May 11. The feeling hero is
more hopeful. The La Liberie says
tho Czar of Russia will propose a gen
eral disarming, which Germany will
support.
London, May 11. The Times, in a
leading editorial, says we bolievo the
Czar is resolved to hold most decided
language in favor of tho maintenance
of peace, and to use every effort to
put. a stop to the present alarm. A
few days will probably bring forth
official disclaimers of recent, reports.
It is possible that it will be said that
there is nothing to justify French ap
prehensions ; but if there should be a
mistake on this point, as long as tlie
present condition remains there must
be uneasiness and oven danger. An
unforeseen incident, an outburst of
jealousy may precipitate a rupture.
The Czar is enabled to guarantee that
France will not attack Germany
within a few years. Gigantic arma
ments are a mutual menace, anti
while they exist it, is beyond the pow
er of imperial peacemakers to allay
apprehension.
Berlin, May 11. The rumor that
Germany and Prussia intend address
ing representations to Franco in rela
tion to her armament is false.
THE ENGLISH PARLIAMENT.
London, May 11. Iu the House of
Commons this afternoon Mr. Ilourko,

assurance from Berlin of the mainte
nance of tlie peace of Europe.
THE CZAR ARRIVED IN BERLIN.
Berlin, May 11.—The Czar has ar
rived. Ho was received on alighting
at tho railway station by the Empe
ror William and all the Princes of
the Emperor’s family. Generals Von
Moltke and Mantueffel and other
distinguished personages wero pre
sent,. Tho Emperor’s greeting was
exceedingly cordial. An immense
crowd gathered around the station
and cheered enthusiastically. Tho
city is decorated with flags.
Tho Czar, accompanied by Prince
Gortsohakoff, visited Prince Bis
marck.
The bill for tho suppression of re
ligious orders passed its third read
ing in the lower house.
Tho Berlin Post says there are rea
sons to suppose that certain Polisti
priests have conspired against tho
lives of Princo Bismarck urtd Dr.
Falek, minister of ecclesiastical af
fairs, and that three persons, whoso
names are already known to tho po
lice, were hired to carry out tho plot.

Jordan’s Joyous Julep.
A Specific for Neuralgia.
JIIAYK been saying a good deal through the
papers of late extolling JORDAN'S JOYOUS
JULEP as a most wonderful NEURALGIA CURE;
but for bar you may exclaim as Shakspeare
when lie said “You cram theso words into mine
ear against the stomach of my sense,” 1 now sub
mit to you what persons say who have tried my
Neuralgia Julep, with the most complete and
satisfactory result:
COLUMUUS, January 10, 1875.
Air.Jordan: —l take great pleasure in recom
mending your Joyous Julep tor neuralgia,
has produced a most wonderful relief in one o
the severest attacks of neuralgia my daughter
ever has had. She lias been treated for it by
three skillful physicians, with very little bcueflt,
and used all the usual remedies with little suc
cess. I can with much confidence hope for a per
manent cure. It is only two days since we began
the use of it, nml it is apparently of permanent
benefit. Yours, with respect,
MRS. L. 1. NORMAN.
Petkrhbu&o, Va.. Jan. 13, 1875.
Jno. L. Jordan, Ksq., Columbus, Ga.:
Dear Sir—Having learned through my friend
R. A. Bacon of your “J. J. J.” preparation for re
lief of neuralgia, and teßtcd it with perfect suc
cess in my owu family, In the worst case, too,
that ever came under iny observation, 1 now
enclose fifty cents for a second bottle, as I con
sider it too valuable a medicine to bo without,
though I have no immediate use fu-r it.
Very truly yours,
JAMES T. TOSH.
Columbus, Ga.. Nov. . 1874.
Dr. J. L. Jordan: Dear Sir—Your Joyous Julep
for Neuralgia has been tried in my family. M.d
with the most happy result.and l find in it all you
claim for its virtue. And I unhesitatingly re
commend it to all who are suffering from Neural
gia as something a little remarkable in its cura
tive power. J. D. WORTHY.
Columbus, Ga., Dec. 18,1874.
Pr. J. L. Jordan— Your medicine. Joyous
Julep, is without an equal for Neuralgia. Having
been a great sufferer from the pain, and having
tried the prescriptions of many physicians, yet
uil proved of no effect until I tried four doses
of your Julep, when I was immediately relieved,
and have not been troubled since.
S. C. MADDOX.
Lake City, Fla., Nov. 4, 1874.
I)r. J. L. Jordan —Please send me another bot
tle of your Joyous Julep for a friend. I have
never found anything equal to it for Neuralgia.
Two doses cured me almost instuntly, und I can
safely recommend it to do what you say.
Very respectfully, kc...
JOHN M. JEFFRYS.
Kernandina, Fla., April, 1874.
Dr. J. L. Jordan, Columbus, Ga.:
Dear Dir—lt affords me pleasure to add iny tes
timony to the efficacy of your “Jordan's Joyous
Julep,” in giving instant relief in Neuralgia; and
to all appearance, as effective as instantaneous.
I was effected daily with Neuralgia, and sinco
taking a few teasponnluls of your relief, two or
more weeks have elapsed, and there are no indi
cations of return. I hope that the human fam
ily will raoeive a benefit commensurate with the
importance of your discovery, and that your
pecuniary reward will lie equal to its well de
served merits. Yours, respectfully,
MRS. L. DOZIER

THE BUN.
DAILY AND WEEKLY FOE 1875.
The approach of the Presidential election gives
unusual importance to the events and develop
ments of 187 ft. We shall endeavor to describe
them fully, faithfully and fearlessly.
THE WEEKLY BUN has now attained a circula
tion of over eighty thousand copies. Its readers
are found in every State and Territory, and its
quality is well known to the public. We shall
not only endeavor to keep it fully up to the old
standard, but to improve and add to its variety
and power.
THE WEEKLY SUN will continue to be a thor
ough newspaper. All the news of the day will be
found in it, condensed when unimportant, at
full length when of moment, and always, we
trust, treated in a clear, interesting and instruct
ive manner.
It is our aim to moke the Weekly Hon the best
family newspaper in the world. It will be full of
entertaining and appropriate reading of every
sort, but will print nothing to offend the most
scrupulous and delicate taste. It will always
contain tbo most interesting stories and ro
mance* of the day, carefully selected and legibly
printed.
Tho Agricultural Department is a prominent
feature in the Weekly Hun, and its articles Will
always be found fresh and useful to the former.
The number of men independent in politics is
increasing, and the Weekly Sun is their paper
especially. It belongs to no party, and obeys no
dictation, contending for principle, and lor the
election of the best men. It exposes the corrup
tion that disgraces the country and threatens the
overthrow of republican institutions. It has no
fear of knaves, and seeks no fovors from their
supporters.
The markets of every kind ami the foshions
are regularly reported.
The price of the WEEKLY SUN is one dollar a
year for a sheet of eight pages, and fifty-six col
umns. Ah thiH barely pays the expenses of paper
and printing, wo are not able to make any dis
count or allow any premium to friends who may
make special efforts to extend its circulation.
Under tho new law, which requires payment of
postage in advance, one dollar a year, with twenty
cents tho cost of prepaid postage added, is the
rate of subscription. It is not necessary to get
up a club in order to have tho Weekly Bun at this
ratu. Auy one who sends one dollar and twenty
cents will get the paper, postpaid for one year.
Wo have no traveling agents.
