Bay and Barnard Streets Sunday, March 2, 1879. LACONOGRAPHS. Quadragesima Sunday. March comes in like a lion. Our butchers object to Lent. A sign of the times- 11 To let.” Now is the time for rabbits to get mad. The winds seemed to anticipate March a little. Spring has begun to dress herself in her suit of green. Fix up the bad places in your side¬ walks. Quantities of robbins are offered for sale on our streets daily. He who has no respect for religion can have no true respect for himself. The first lot of fresh vegetables was received in the city yesterday. The City Court will convene to-mor¬ row afternoon at 4 o’clock for the ex¬ amination of criminal cases. Every closet hath its skeleton, if it’s nothing more than the willow frame of an empty demijohn. We would advise our City Marshal to visit the Southeastern part of the city on Sunday afternoons. Our spring poet looketh at the moon for inspiration—providing the saloons are closed. The moon shone brightly last night, but the weather was a little too cool to make promenading enjoyable. Lent is a sort of quarantine on meat. Now begins longing for Easter among the worldly minded. The Georgia Historical Society hold their regular meeting to-morrow night, when Colonel Olmstead will deliver a lecture entitled “Reminiscences of ser¬ vice with the First Georgia—Charles¬ ton Harbor, in 1863.” Police Pickings. J. M. Harb was behaving in a bois¬ terous manner and using profane and abusive language on the public thor¬ oughfare yesterday afternoon when mounted Officer O. F. Reilly arrested him. Lucy Humphries and Ellen Mitchell, two colored hens, were scratching and tearing each other last evening at 6:15 o'clock, when Officer O'Keefe happening along accompanied them to the barracks, where they were registered for the night. Tony Stiles, a colored unclean bird of ill omen, indecently exposed himself on the streets last night, was put in quod by Officer Malone. John Reighton, colored, was arrested last night by Officer Bender for using obscene, insulting and abusive language in the presence of Maria Redmont, in the market. Many cases given upas hopeless by the family physicians come to Dr. Yel lowstone for treatment, and from the wonderful effects of his simple but powerful herbs, have met with the wonderful success. One lady, well known in the city, had been a sufferer for several years, and the best physi cians in the city could not relieve her. Dr. Yellowstone took her case in hand in a few davs cured her of her complaint. Broughton Dr. Y^ellowstone 172 street.

Aylesworth, failing to agree were dis¬ charged and a mis-drial declared. The jury stood ten for acquittal and two for conviction. Johnson was yesterday sentenced by Judge Tompkins to be hanged, Thurs¬ day, April 10th, 1879, and Small was sentenced to the penitentiary Divine for twenty years, and unless some or legal interposition takes place, these men will expiate the crime with which they stand charged. Improvements. On a visit to the Southwest portion of the city, we could not fail to notice the signs of improvements going on there, and we came t© the conclusion that this section of Savannah contains some men of progressive ideas, who desire to enhance the value of their property and utilize it by erecting thereon substantial residences. In the first place we noticed Thomas F Molloy building an additional story to his residence on Gwinnett and West Broad streets. We also noticed that Mr Williams is erecting a com¬ in fortable and substantial structure the shape of a two story residence on Bolton street, near West Broad. We see four beautiful cottages in course of construction in the Southwest¬ ern portion of the city, between Gwin¬ nett, Bolton and West Broad streets. All the improvements are doubtless the result of the benefits derived from the Barnard street line of street cars. Off with the Mistletoe, If our Commissioners who have the interest and the native beauty of our city at heart, will only take a walk down Bull street, and, in fact, any prominent they street throughout our city, will find some of our noble shade trees of looking as if it was only a matter time for them to be subjected to the sharp edge of the woodman’s axe. The cause of this decay among the beauti¬ ful trees which adorn some of the most charming is promenades in any country apparent. The mistletoe which clings to them is the great destroyer of their growth and beauty. This mistle¬ toe acts on a tree like a tumor upon the human body. It is a cutaneous disease, thereby absorbing all the sap and strength from the body and branch¬ es of the parent stem, resulting at last in total annihilation. Off, we say with the mistletoe and pressrve those noble trees which beautify our city and make it pre-eminently the eity of delightful promenades. Robert Emmet Tuesday next, March 4th, will be the anniversary of the birth of this illustrious patriot son of Ireland, and in order to suitably commemorate his memory, a meeting was held Friday night at the Jasper Greens’ Hall, to make arrangements Ledlie for the coming event. Mr. 0. S. was called to the Chair, and Mr. J. C. Duggan re¬ quested to act as Secretary. The Chair explained the object of the meeting, aud then called on Mr. Duggan to read a letter he had receiv¬ World, ed from the editor of the Irish advising such a celebration. A very free interchange of opinion took place among those present, and Mr. Duggan moved that a public meet¬ ing be held Tuesday night, to which eminent American and Irish gentlemen should be invited to speak. This was amended by appointing a committee of arrangements to manage all the details. Motion and amend¬ ment The agreed, to. consists of M. J. committee Doyle, Chairman ; L- P. Ashby, J. P. White, P. Donelan, and J. D. Downing. No other business being presented, the meeting was then adjourned. Among those present, when the mat¬ ter was better understood, there was much enthusiasm and a determination to make the celebration a success. Dr. Yellowstone’s system of cur ing diseases is to remove the cause by cleaning the liver from bile and puri tying the blood, and the success which has crowned his treatment place him among the first in the country. Dr. Yellowstone, mh2-lt 172 Broughton street.

A fit guaranteed, feb^ltf A Wild Hog. Yesterday morning, between 9 and 10 o’clock, a hog broke loose from the pen in which it was confined, at Lover’s lane. Mrs. Johnson, the owner, pursued the animal, which took refuge under a house. Mrs. Johnson endeavored to drive the hog from its retreat and stooped down to look under the house, when the infuriated animal sprang at and bit her, and tore her mouth with its sharp tusks. Dr. Puree was sum moned, who sewed and dressed the wound. The animal now thoroughly roused up was driven from its retreat, and men and dogs gave chase. A slung shot had to be brought into requi¬ sition before the animal could be cap¬ tured. Privy Sinks and Dry Wells. Firm believers are we ia the old and trite saying, that “Cleanliness ie next to Godliness,” and especially do we hold that this trueism is not only ap¬ plicable to individuals but to commu¬ nities in general. In a sanitary point of view this law should be inscribed upon the tablets of a city council, and printed in £age large and bold letters upon the first ol its decalogue. A oity which disregards this simple and natural law is sure to become physically warped and ultima¬ tely diseased. We would in a spirit of kindness call the attention of the Sanitary Board, to the matter of cleaning and purifying the privy sinks and dry wells through-, out the city, especially on Charlton street, between Lincoln and Habersham. It is stated that these cess-pools have not been cleared for the past five years. If such is the case, it is a serious fault, and our Sanitary Committee should look into this matter. This place, if not watched carefully, will be productive of a fertile source of disease, resulting as it has already in typ hoid fever and death, t is to be hoped that our Sanitary Board, will leave nothing undone this eumtner, which will tend to further and promote the health of our city. From the material composing this most important commission, we feel sure of good results from their deliberations and labors. Manufactories All Important. Our City’s Need. The prospects of a city depends, ulti* mately, upon the extent of its trade, its commerce and its natural advantages offered to the exchange of commodities. The surest way of building up a city is the encouragement of home industries— the building up of manufactories. They are the life of a city. The prosperity of one branch of business is not the only need of a city, therefore, the cot¬ ton which is brought to our port is not what we should look to for prosperity, any more than the farmer who raises one crop and buys everything else which he should raise on his farm. What Savannah needs is to build up manufactories—to give employment to her idle people—to keep our money among ourselves, and to invite pop¬ ulation. The war has taught us a lesson. Let us profit by it. Throw off that depen¬ dence upon foreign nations which we have relied upon for years. Let us step out of the narrow ruts in which we were reared, and let our grand daddie’s ideas be covered up with the sods of time. The line of demarcation as laid down by them for our guidance in political economy, are not broad enough now for us to maintain that in¬ dependence which we should strive for as a country. Shake off the old customs. En¬ courage home manufactures, and all branches of industry. Manufactories of boxes, paper bags, brooms, buckets, trunks, shovels, and all materials for home use. The sooner we do this the sooner we will become an independent section, thereby giving to the world assurances of our productive wealth. Atlanta is to-day acting upon these suggestions, and we predict for her a great future. - It is pleasing and amusing to see 1 suffering consumptive, with dyspeptic, and patients catarrh, asthma and serious throat diseases meet at Dr. Yel lowstone's office, 172 Broughton street, and relate their sad experiences and the happy results of Dr. Yellowstone’s treatment. The secret ol his success lies in the merits of his wonderful i herb# and the Doctor’s knowledge of compounding the same.

Barney Edwards living on the cor¬ ner of New Houston and Barnard streets, was arrested at one o’clock, Saturday Edwards. morning, for To beating his wife, Ellen E. prevent a re¬ currence of the frequent assaults to which she had been subjected, she preferred charges before Magistrate Hart, who issued the warrant and in¬ structed Deputy Sheriff Hall to arrest him, Edwards was committed to jail to await an examintion to-morrow. An Excellent Testimonial. The grand prize Gold Medal, award* ed to Messrs. Bergner & Engel, of Philadelphia, at the Paris Exposition of 1878, is on exhibition at S. P. Ham¬ ilton’s Jewelry store. The eatimation in which the firm holds this medal, is not so much for its intrinsic value, as the recognition of their justly celebrated lager beer. beer, Among they the 165 exhibitors of lager medal, only received the grand prize and was the only beer that came from America in wood. Savannah’s Work and In¬ dustry. We would call attention to the ad¬ vertisement of P. O’Connor, which ap¬ pears in another column. This gentle¬ man is turning out some exceedingly fine work, particularly in the case of a cracker and candy wagon for Gucken ueimer, Schwarz & Co. The wood and iron work, painting and fancy decora¬ tion were done in the shop, and for durability, style, painting and general appearance it cannot be excelled in the country. Mr. O’Connor is also building a fine top wagon for George Y. Hecker, the Self-Raising in wise inferior Flour man, which will be no to the one already turned out. The wood and iron used by Mr. O’Connor in the manufacture of buggies is superior to that of Northern manufacturers. With such an excellent workman in our midst, capable of turning out bug¬ gies and wagons equal in finish, material and style to any Northern manufacturer, it would be simply folly to encourage the introduction of foreign manufacture. Arrest of «fBank Robber. A few days ago the Duval Savings Bank, of Jacksonville, Fla., was robbed by some robbers parties of $3,000, and some of the arrested. A few days ago the following telegram was received by Magistrate Elsinger : “Jacksonville, Fla. “Arrest J. \V. Johnson, 5 feet 5 in., 24 years of age, light complexion, smooth red face, pleasant countenance, dark eyes. Larceny, $3,000. “W. S. Rowson, “Chief of Police.” Acting upon this telegram, brief and concise as it was, Officer Thomas Fol liard, after the most vigilant and un¬ tiring search, arrested a man yesterday afternoon at 3 o’clock on South Broad and Habersham streets, answering the description. The prisoner made several contradictory statements and attempt¬ ed to get away from the officer. He was taken before Magistrate Elsinger, and said that his name was Martin. His excited, disconnected statements, and the correct answer to the descrip¬ tion of the man wanted, convinced the officers that they have the right one. He was subsequently taken to the barracks to be kept until some one comes from Jacksonville for him. The prisoner is a young and pleasant ap¬ pearing man and took his arrest much to heart. Yellowstone’s wonderful hsrbs are unquestionably the beat remedies for asthma, coughs, bronchites and disor¬ ders of the throat. The highest medi¬ cal testimony states no better cure for these complaints exist. They contain i no opium, morphia or any violent drug. ; mh2 It 172 Broughton street. j i Awake —And go with the times ! there is no use paying from $5 to $10 for a suit or overcoat because you know the parties.
