Philadelphia, October 1.— I The American Journal oj Medical Sciences contains an offi cial report of the autopsy of President Gar field, prepared by the surgeons in charge. After stating that a consnltation was held and made of the pro ceedure adopted, the report says The examination was then proceeded with and the following external appearances were observed: The body was consider ably emaciated, but the face was much less wasted than the limbs. A preservative fluid had been injected by the emboalm a few hours before into the left femoral artory. The pipes used for the purpose were still in position. The anterior sur face of the body presented no abnormal appearances, and there was no ecchvmosis, or other discoloration of any part of the front of the abdomen. Just be low the right ear, and a little behind it, there was an oval ulcerated opening about half an inch in diameter, from which some dus was escaping, but r.o tumefaction could bio served in the parotid region. A con siderable number of purpura like spots were scattered thickly over the left scapula, and thence forward as far as the axilla. They ranged from one eighth to one fourth of an inch in diameter, were slightly eleva ted on the surface, and many of them were confluent in groups of two to four or more. Similar but much less abundant erup tions were observed sparsely scattered over a corresponding region of the light side and an oval excavated ulcer, about an inch long, the result of a small carbuncle, was seated over the spinous process of the tenth dorsal vertebra. Over the sacrum there were four small bed sores, the largest about half an inch in diameter. A few acne pustules and a number of Irregular soots of post mortem hypo static congestion were scattered over the shoulder, back and buttocks The Inferior part of the scrotum was much dis colored by hvpostatic congestion. A group of hemorrhoidal tumors, rather larger than usual, protruded from the anus The de pressed cicatrix of the wound made by the pistsl bullet waa recognized over the tenth Intercostal space three and a half Inches to the right of the vertebral spines. A deep linear in cision. made in part by the operation of July 24th, and extended by that of August Bth, occupied a position closely correspond ing to the upper border of the right twelfth rib. It commenced posteriorly about two Inches from the vertebral spines and ex tended forward a little more tbau three inches. At the anterior extremity of this incision there was a deep nearly square abraded surface about an inch across. A well oiled flexible catheter, fourteen inches long, was then pased into this wound, as bad been done to wash it out during life. More resistance was at first encountered than had usually been the case, but after several trials the cather entered without any vio lence to Its full length. It was then left in position and the body disposed supinely for the examination of the viscera. The cra nium was not opened. A long incision was made from the superior extremity of the sternum to the pubis, followed by a transverse incision, crossing the abdomen just, below the umblll'cus. Four laps, thus form-d, were turned back, and the abdominal viscera exposed. The subcutaneous adipose tissue, divided by the incisions, was little more thau ono-elehlh of an inch thick over the thorax, but was thicker over the abdomen, being about a quarter of an Inch along the linea alba, and as much as half an Inch thick towards the ou’er extremity of the transverse Incision. On an inspection of the abdomiuical viscera in sftve a transverse colon was observed to lie a little above the line of the umbillicus. It was firm ly adherent to the anterior edge of the liver. The greater omentum covered the Intestines pretty thoroughly from the transverse colon almost to the pubis. It was still quite fat, and was very much blackened by venous congestion on both sides. Its lateral margins were ad herent to the adominal paricles opposite the eleventh and twelfth ribs. On the left side the adhesions were numerous, firm, we'l organized aud probably old. A foot note here says: "These adhesions and firm ones on the right side, as well as those of the spleen, possibly date back to the attack of chronic dysentery, from which the patient is said to have suffered during the civil war. On the right side there were a few similar adhesions and a number of more delicate and probably recent ones. A mass of black coagulated blood covered and concealed the spleen and the left margin of tbe great omentum. On raising the omen'um it was found that this blood was extended through the left lumbsr and iliac regions and dipped down into the pelvis, in which there was 6ome clotted blood, and rather more than a pint of blood.” The second foot noie here says: “A large part of this had probably transnded from the Injecting material of the erabalmer. The blood coagulation, having been turned out and collected/.measured very nearly a pint. It was now evident that tbe seconda ry hemorrhage had been the immedl ate cause of death, but the point from which the blood had escaped was not at once apparent. The omertulm was not ad herent to the intestines, which were moder ately distended with gas. No intestinal ad hesions were found, other than those be tween the transverse colon and the liver, already mentioned. The ab dominal cavity being now washed out as thoroughly as possible, a fruitless attempt was made to obtain some indication of the bullet before maklDg any further incision. By pushing the intestines aside the extremity of the catheter, which had been passed into the wound, could be felt between the peritouium and the right Iliac, but it had evidently doubled upon Itself, and although a prolonged search was made, no’hlng could be seen or felt to lndica'e the presence of the bullet, either in that region or else where. The al dominal viscera were then carefully removed from the body, placed in suitable vessels and an examination made seriatim, with the following result: The adhesions between tbe liver and the trans verse colon proved to be an ab scess cavity between the under surface of the liver, transverse colon aud the transverse meso colon, which Involved the gall and bladder, and extended to about tbe same distance on each side of it, measuring six inches transversely and four inches from before backwards. This cavity was lined by a thick pyogenic mem brane, which completely replaced tbe capsule of that part of the under sur face of the liver occupied by the abreess. It contained about two ounces of greenish yellow fluid, a mixture of pus and biliary matter. This abscess did Dot involve any portion of the substances of the liver except the surface, with which It was in contact, and no communication could be detected between it and any part of the wound. Some recent peritonlal adhesions existed between tbe upper surface of the right lobe of the liver and the diaphragm. The liyer was larger than normal, weighing 84 ounces. Its substance was firm, but of a pale, yellowish color on its surface and throughout the interior of the organ, from fatty degeneration. No evidence that it had been penetrated by the bullet could be found, nor were there any abscesses or Infraction in any part of its tissue. The spleen was connected with the diaphram by firm, probably old perl tonal adhesions. There were several rather deep congenital fissures in its margins, giving it a tabulated appear ance. It was abnormally large, weighing eighteen ounces, of very dark lead red color, both on the surface and on the section. Its parenchyma was soft and flabby, but con tained no abscesses or infractions. There were some recent perttonal adhesions between the posterial well of the itomach and the posterior ab dominal parites. With this exception no abnormities were discovered in the stomach or intestines, nor were any other evidences of general or local peritonitis found besides those already specified. The right kidney weighed six ounces, the left seyen. Jusr beneath the capsule of the left kidney, at about the middle of its con vex border, there was a little abscess one third of an Inch in diameter. There were three small serious cysts on the convex bor der of the right kidney just beneath its capsule. In other respects tbe tissue of both kidneys was normal in appear ance and in texture. The uri nary bladder was empty. Behind the right kidney, after tbe removal of that organ from the body, tbe dilated track of the bullet was dissected into. It was found that from the point at which it bad fractured the right eleventh rib three inches and a half to the right of the verteb ra) spines, the missile had gone to the left obliquely forward, passing through the body ot foe first lumbar SAVANNAH, MONDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1881. vertebra, and lodging In an adipose con nective tissue immediately below the lower border of the pancreas, about two Inches and a half to the left of the spinal column and behind the peritoneum. It had become completely encysted. The track of the bullet between the point at which it had fractured tbe eleventh rib, and that at which It entered the first lumbar vertebra was con siderably dilated and the pus had burrowed down through the adipose tissue behind the right kidney, and thence had found its way between the peritonlum and the right iliac fascia, making a descending channel, which extended almost to the groin adi pose tissue behind the kidney in the vicinity. This descending chan nel was much thickened and condensed by the inflammation. In the channel, which was found almost free from pus, lay a flexible catheter introduced into the wound at the commencement of tbe autopsy. Its extremity was found doubled upon itself immediately beneath the peritonium, reposing upon the iliac fascia, where the channel wa3 dilated into a pouch of considerable size. This tang descending channel, dow clearly seen to have been caused by the burrowing of pus from the wound, was supposed, during life, to have been the track of the bullet. The last dor sal, together with first and second lum bar vertebra and the twelfth rib were then removed from the body for more thorough examination. “When this examination was made it was found that the bullet bad penetrated the first lumbar vertebra in the upper part of tbe right side of its body. The aperture by which it entered involved the Interverte bral cartilage next above, and was situated just below and anterior to the intervertebral foraman, from which its upper margin was about one-quar ter of an inch distant. Passing obliquely to the left and forward through the upper part of the body of the lumbar vertebra, the bullet emerged by an aperture, the centre of which was about half an inch to the left of the median line, and which also involved the interver’ebral cartilage next above. The cancellated tissue of the body of tbe first lumbar vertebra was very much communi ted, and the fragments were somewhat dis placed. Several deep fissures extended Lorn the track of the bullet Into the lower part of the body of the twelfth dorsal vertebra. Oth ers extended through tbe first lumbar vertebra Into the Intervertebral cartilage, between It and the second lumbar vertebra. Both this cartilage and that next above were partly destroyed by ulceration. A number of minute fragments from the fractured lumbar vertebra had been driven into the adjacent soft parts. It was further found that the right twelfth rib al.o was fractured at a point one inch and a quarter to the right, of the transverse pro cess of the twelfth dorsal vertebra. Tils injury bad not been recognized during life. On 6awing through the vertebra little to the right of the median line it was found thal the spina! canal was not involved by the track of the ball. “The spinal cord, and theother|con tents of this portion of the spinal canal, presented no abnormal appearance. The rest of the spinal cord was not examined. Bevond the first lumbar vertebra tbe bullet continued to the left, passing behind the pancreas to the point where It was found. Here it was en veloped In a firm cyst of connective tissue, which contained besides tbe ball a minute quantity of inspissated, somewhat cheesy pus, which formed a thin layer over a por tion of the surface of tbe lead. There was also a black shred adherent, to a part of the cyst wall, which proved on microscopical examination to be remains of blood clot. For about an Inch from this cyst the track of the ball behind the pancreas was com pletely obliterated by the healing process. Thence as far backward as the body of the first lumbar vertebra the track filled with coagulated blood, which extended on the left Into 8n Irregular space rent in the ad joining adipose tissue behind the perito neum and above the pancreas. “Blood bad worked its way to the left, bursting finally through the perltonf um be hind the spleen into the abdominal cavity Rending of the tissue by the extravasa’lon of this blood was undoubtedly the cause of the paroxysm of pain which occurred a short time before death. This mass of coagulated bloOd was of irregular form and nearly as large as a man’s fist. It. could be distinctly seen from in front through the peritoneum after its site behind tbe greater curvature of the stomach had been exposed by the dissection of the greater omentum from tbe stomach, and especially after some delicate adhesions between the stomach and the part of the peritoneum covering the blood mass bad been broken down by the fingers. From the relations of the mass as thus seen it was believed that the hemorrhage had proceeded from one of the mesenteric ar teries, bu as it was clear that minute dissec tion would be required to determine the pirtfeular branch Involved, it was agreed that the enfiltrated tissues and the adjoining soft spot parts should be pre served for subsequent stndy. On examination and dissection, made In accordance with this agreement, it wbr found that the fatal hemorrhage proceeded from a rent nearly four-tenths of an inch tang in the mala trunk of the splenic artery, two inches and a half to tbe left of the cieliac axis. This rent must have occurred at least several days before death, since the everted edges in the vessel were united by firm adhesion to the surrounding connective tissue, thus forming an almost continuous wall bounding the adjoining por tion of the blood clot. Moreover, the peri phlral portion of the clot In this vicinity was disposed In prettv firm concentric layers. It was further found that the cyst below the lower margin of the pancreas, In which the bullet was found, was situated three inches and a half to the left of the cne'iac axis. Besides the mass of coagulated blood just described, another about the size of a wal nut was found in tbe great omentum, near the splenic extremity of the stomach. The communication, if any, between this and the larger hemorrhagic maES could not be made out.” “The examination of tbe thoroaic viscera resulted as follows: The heart weighed eleven ounces. All the cavities were en tirely emptT except the right ventricle, In which a few shreds of soft, reddish coagu lated blood adhered to tbe internal surface. On the surface of the metral valve there were several spots of fatty degenera tion. With this exception the cardioc valves were normal. The muscular tissue of the heart was soft and tore easily. A few spots ot fatty degeneration existed in the lining membrane of the arsta just above the semi lunar valve, and a slender clot, of fibrin was found In the aorta, where it was divided about two inches from these valves, for the remoyal of the hesrt. “On the right side a slight pleuritic adhe sion existed between the convex surface of the lower lobe of the lung and the costal pleura, and firm adhesions between the an terior edge of the lower lobe, the pericar dium and tbe diaphragm. The right lu r g weighed thirty-two ounces. The posterior part of tbe fissure between its upper and lower lobes was congenitally Incomplete. The lower lobe of the right lung was hy postaMcally congested and considerable portions, especially towards its base, were the sf at of broncho pneumonia. The bron chial tubes contained a considerable quantity of stringy muco pus. Their mucous surface was reddened by catßrrhal bronebita. The lung tissue was demateous (a foot note here savg part at least of this condition was, doubtless, due to the extravasation of the injecting fluid used by the embalmer), but contained no abscesses or infections. On the left side, the lower lobe of the lung was bonnd be hind to the costal pleura, above to the upper lobe, and below to the diaphragm by pretty firm pleuritic adhesions. The left lung weighed twenty-seven ounces. The condition of lts|bronch!al tubes and lung tissue was very nearly the same as on the right 6ide, the chief difference being that the area of broncho pneumonia in the lower lobe was much less extensive In the left lung than in the right. In the lateral part of the lower lobe of the left lung and about an inch from its pleural surface there was a group of four minute areas of gray repatlzation, each about one-eighth of an Inch In diameter. were no Infrac tions and abeceeses in any part of ttfe lung tissue.” The surgeons assisting at the autopsy were unanimously of the opinion that on reviewing the history of tbe case in connection with the autopsy it was quite evident that different suppurating surfaces, and especially the fracture in tbe spongy tissue of the vertebra furnisq sufficient explanation of the septic condi tions; which existed during life. About an hour after the post mortem examination was completed the doctors assembled for further consultation In the adjoining cot tage. A brief outline of fop results of the post mortem examination was drawn up and signed by all the physicians and handed to Private Secretary J. Stanley Brown, who was requested to furnish copies to the news paper press. D. W. Bliss. J. K- Barnes. J. J. Woodward. Robert Retbukn. D. 8. Lamb. As the above report contains paragraphs detailing the observations made at Washing ton on the pathological specimens preserved for that purpose, tbe names of Drs. F. H. Hamilton, D. Hayes Agnew and A. H. Smith are not appended to it. It has, how ever, been submitted to them, and they have given their assent to foe other por tions of foe report. HIS LIFE HIS WITNESS. THE DEAD FBESIDENT’S FAITH. Dr. Errett on tbe Question of tbe Absence of Religions ministration —At Peace wltb His maker—He Needed No Intercession. Cincinnati, October 2.—Rev. Isaac Errett, who delivered the funeral oration of Presi dent Garfield at Cleveland, addressed a large audience tc-day at the Richmond Street Christian Church upon the death of the late President. He said much anxiety had been expressed to hear something from the deathbed of President Garfield, some last words that would reaffirm the faith and conviction of his life. Comment had been made, too, upon the absence of religious talk or ministrations beside his dying bed. The speaker thought too much attention was given to his deathbed declaration, for better than any deathbed testimony is the grand life of James A. Garfield. Through the caution of the President’s physicians no risk was permitted, and he died without any formal farewell or testimony. But it is known that at the beginning he asked to know the worst, saving: “You know I am not afraid of death.” We know too that when the Lord’s day came it would have been comlorting to the living to have had bis pastor beside him at the last. But we know that Jas. A. Garfield was himself a royal President of God by virtue of his anointing as a Christian, snd needed none save the one mediator between God and man to intercede for him wPh the Father. FROM POLAR SEAS. Probable Wreck of a Whaler—A Theory as to tbe Jeannette. San Francisco, October 2.—The whaling schooner R. B. Pendv, Captain Winans, arrived at this port yesterday from the Arctic Seas. She brought down Captain Gifford and the crew of the whaler Daniel Webster, which was crushed by the ice near Point Barrow. Captain Gifford confirms the report recently published, stating that the natives bad seen a wrecked ship far to the eastward and four white men among the natives. The conversation between Capt. Gifford and the natives was conducted principally by signs, and it was and ffleult to understand. From the signs made, these four men were either dead or sick, as the natives indicated their condition as being one of sleep. There is a similarity In the statement of the Esquimaux concern ing the wreck and that relative to the loca tion of the wreck of the Vigilant. The num ber of bodies corresponds, four dead men havlDg been found on the Vigilant; but the distance between the two locations is so great as to make it impossible to tbe minds of the whalers that the two stories apply to the same vessel. Captain W’inans, In a letter to the Bulletin advances the theory that the Jeannette has sought a northeastern passage around North Ameri ca, and mentions as a thread of evi dence leading that wav that the Indians, who reported to Captain Gifford the wreck to the eastward, produced anew bra c s kettle which had come from the wreck. The kettle was new and bright and j rit from tbe store, having the name and place of the manufacturer, which the Cap tain thinks was Watorbury, Mass., but he has lost the record he made of it at the time. No 6hip has been in the vicinity during the last two years, and it, would seem that were the article from the ship found before that time it would have been made U6e of, for soon after the natives brought it to Point Birrow it was immediately utilized. THE COTTON EXPOSITION. Programme for tbe Opening Cere* monies. Atlanta, October I.—The programme for the opening day ceremonies of the In ternational Cotton Exposition is just out The guests will assemble at the Union Depot next Wednesday morning and be conveyed by a special train to Ogle thorpe Park, where they will be received by a detachment of regiments and volunteers and escorted through the grounds to the grand staud.

An-Overdne Kteamer—The “City ol Merida” Probably Lost. New York, October 2 The steamer City of Merida, which sailed from New York on September 24th for Vera Cruz, has not been heard from since. She was to begin regular trips between Vera Cruz and New Orleans the latter part of October. Washington, October 2. Tbe Signal Corps station at Cape Hatteras, N. C., re ports pieces of a small boat with the name City of Merida on one part washed ashore there on Friday night. Death of a Veteran Hotel Man and Merchant. Boston, October 2.—Hon. Enoch R. Mudge, a leading commission merchant in cotton and woolen goods and head of the firm of E. R. Mudge, Sawyer Cos., of Bos ton, New York and Philadelphia, died of apoplexy at his summer residence In Swampscott at noon yesterday, aged 69 years. From 1835 to 1839 he was manager of the Astor House, and In 1840 opened the St. Charles Hotel In New Orleans, amassing a fortune in the latter city. Fire on Shipboard. London, October 1. A fire broke out on Wednesday In the after hold of the steamer Wyoming, which arrived at Queenstown yesterday from New York. The flames were extinguished In about five hour*. Several bales of cotton were destroyed and as far can be ascertained at present, very little damage was done, although her cargo may have suffered somewhat from the quantity of water which was poured down the hold. Lynched In Illinois. Bloomington, 111., October 2—Frede rick Franks, in charge of the jail here, was murdered last night by a prisoner named Pierce. The news spread, and a crowd of five thousand people burst Into the jail, took Pierce out and lynched him. Disarming tbe Nihilists.

Aunt Rachel, writing to the Cincinnat Em/ulrer, says: “When you feel unwell and think you must take medicine, tor goodness sake ‘get the best.’ If you need a remedy that will make you regular in your habits, give yu a good natural appetite, make your skin clear and smooth, and remove all spots and b!mlshes that Indicates 111 health; If you wish to be free from mental depression, fretfulness, peevishness, wakefulness and Other disorders, use Brown’s Iron Bitters. DESTRUCTION AND DEATH. A Terrific Western Cyclone. Chicago, October 1. Telegraphic re ports from various points in the Northwest indicate the occurrence of a widespread wind storm, which has proved very disas trous. It is reported to have lasted all day. The wires are down at many places, and full accounts of the damage done cannot be obtained. Accounts from Omaha, Nebraska, and other points in that section report the cy clone of Thursday as terrific In its force. Nebraska City was damaged to the amount of several thousand dollars, the Blind Asy lum and several business blocks being un roofed. The injury at Omaha was com paratively trifling. A St. Paul dispatch says the heavy and continued rasDs in that vicinity, causing all the rivers to rise, have inflicted serious damage. The trains on the various rail roads have been delayed by washouts and land slides. At Minneapolis there has been much uneasiness over a jam of 20,000,000 tags in the Mississippi and the taw grounds of the Minnesota river arellooded In many places, causing consid erable loss to farmers. In Coon vallev the damage is heavy. The bridges have been swept away, and it is believed the valley has suffered a repetition of the spring boods. The farmers have been unable to thresh, and the grain is sprouting in the stacks and has been greatly damaged by water. Omaha, Neb., October I.—A tornado arising at one o’clock yesterday morning nearly demolished Madison, a town of 1,000 inhabitants, In this State. The railway build ings were wrecked and most of the private residences laid level. Two persons are said to have been killed. The telegraph wires are down, and the Union Pacific Railway have sent out a train to the homeless people and for the use of its officers. Emforia, Kan., October I.—The tang drought was broken yesterday afternoon by one of the heaviest rain storms ever seen in this section. The streets were literally flooded in half an hour, and the water in the ravines ran like rivers. After this storm subsided another arose in the west, which soon turned into a violent and destructive cyclone. It seemed to have started at a point a few miles west of this city and traveled in a direction leav ing Emporia only about a mile and a half from its track. In the city there are now lying four dead bodies of people killed by its fury. As many as a score of buildings were utterly demolished. The loss of prop erty Is very great. A large number of peo ple were injured by falling stones and fly ing timbers. Milwaukee, October I.—A special to the Republican from Wautonia, Wis., says: “A terrible tornado swept the valley a short distance west of that town on Thursday, completely devastating a place eighty rods wide and five or six miles in length. Many houses, barns out building, and one grist mill were de molished, and about a dez-n persons were seriously Injured, but none were killed out right. The damage to property could not be closely estimated, but would reach #50,000. THE COTTON BELT. Special Weekly Report of the Crop. New Orleans, October I.— The Democrat has received the following telegraphic re ports from all parts of the South, giving full accounts of the condition of the cotton crop to date: Alabama. —There were light rains during the week, but no damage has been done to the cotton. Picking Is progressing rapidly, and about two-thirds of the crop is already gathered. Worms have done considerable damage. About three-fourths of a crop will be made. Arkansas. —The weather is finer, and picking is progressing rapidly. Cotton is coming in fast, and is being shipped to market. The crop will be almost a failure. Florida. —The weather is good, and picking is progressing. About half the crop has been already gathered. Georgia —The weather is very favorable, but the condition of the crop is bad com pared with last year, and the quality is not as good. There is an increased acreage of 50 per cent. The crop is being gathered rapidly, about one-third havtag been picked. Louisiana. —There has been no change in the condition of thetotton crop. The wea ther is finer. Picking is progressing, and in some parts of the Bt,ate nine-tenths of the cotton has already been gathered. In the northern portion of the State only a third of a crop will be raised, and some parishes will not produce more than one bale to fifteen acres. The crop is being shipped to market as fast as possible. Mississippi.— The weather is favorable for picking, and all the cotton will be gathered by November Ist. The yield will be only half a crop. It is being marketed rapidly. THE JEWS IN RUSSIA, Alleged True Inwardness of TlieA? Persecutions. St. Petersburg, October I.—The Minis ter of the Interior, in his recent circular ap pointing local commissioners to examine into the Jewish question, says the govern ment recognizes the detriment to the Chris tian population of tbe commercial activity, exclusiveness and religious fanaticisms of the Jews, which are still predominant in spite of twenty years effort to blend the two populations. The circular attributes the recent disturbance to exclusively economic causes, growing out of the mo nopolization of trade and the rights of land by the Jews and the unfair advan tage they take of the poorer classes. The Minister promises the Jews protection against violence, but says that energetic measures must be taken to shleldthe Chris tians from the effects of their injurious activity. Statistics are therefore required from the commissioners showing the extent of the liquor trade in the hands of the Jews, their land rentals and their numerical strength, with measures for correcting the abnormal situation.

London, October I.— The Manchester correspondent of the Standard says: “The result of the meeting of the Manchester Cotton Spinners’ Association yesterday has strengthened the feeling that short time will not again be adopted, and that the agitation against the corner is practically ended. The Old ham Spinners’ Buying Company is progressing satisfactorily with their bu siness in Liverpool and In spite of the strong opposition on the part of the Liver pool brokers. About twenty limited com panies of Oldham have already appointed their brokers. All accounts agree that the corner has ended very quietly.” Liverpool, October I.—The Mail says the profits of the chief cotton cornerer are estimated at from a quarter to half a million pounds sterling. Only one small failure is kuown to have occurred and no other Is ex pected. The secret of recruiting the vital principle Is discovered in Tutt’s Pills.

Improper medicines only aggravate human diseases. Don’t experiment with your hiw York, September 30.—The “openings” of fall fashions are about as distracting events as can be imagined to the majority of women who have little time to decide between the merits of a multitude of fabrics, and often buy In haste to repent at leisure. The only salva tion is to decide beforehand what not to buy, and this is about as good a preparation as any for a wise choice. It will usually be found also that from year to year certain standard fabric 8 and standard articles keep their place or are only removed to make way for something equally well adapted to many uses and faithful service; and if the purchasers of these tried and proved styles and materials lose something in the way of popular novelty they gain much in the way of permanent satisfaction. All early designs, all early patterns, are now experimental. They are merely samples which dealers place before their customers to see which will “take” with a majority. The diffi culty is a want of nice sense in adapting one thing to another, a pattern to a fabric, a de sign to the material in which it is produced, and the whole to the individual. The daffodil pattern, for example, was very successful last summer in cotton satine; this fall it is repro' duced in rich brocade and does not deserve to be successful. The daffodil had simple natural associations—it suggested the country, country living and country wear—but no lady who had a cotton satin dress in a daffodil pattern will want a duplicate in rich brocade. Besides, the associations are not in harmony with the sub ject. The woolen fabrics in dark, rich shades are beautiful, and they are combined with ombre trimmings, which are a great improvement on the ombre shadings which appeared last sea son. They are darker, firmer, more artistic, and produce a much richer and more refined effect. Tne dark olive, sea) brown, invisible green, and darkest tint of wine and mulberry are still the leading shades, and great skill and taste have been displayed in combirflng colors in the ombre effects so as to produce the best result. The materials are fine and close serge, heather cloth, all-wool tweed, Vienua and Umritza cashmere. This last is softly draping, and comes under the head of esthetic materials. It is used for plain prin cesse house dresses in lighter shades of green, terra-cotta red, and Egyptian brown. The new cloth suitings have color effects in troduced into them, which in some lights show Elainlv— in others are almost invisible. The eather mixtures are the prettiest and most suitable for costumes. A proper way of mak ing is with draped back—two flounces or more upon the front, headed with close shirring; shirred plastron upon the boddice, and coach man’s cape shirred around the neck. This is a suitable style for all plain woolen materials. It is better than side drapery, which is only suit able for more fanciful materials and toilettes. Plushes show many novelties. Among them are terry cords and shaded stripes in new colorings and combinations. The most striking and original of the recent designs in p'ush, however, consists of small fan or oval shaped leaves, shaded in different tints, and overlay ing each other exactly like the pheasant feather fans which were so fashionable two years ago. The effect is very much the same, and, used as a trimming, it is difficult to tell at a distance whether it is produced by feathers, embroidery, or a richly piled fabric. Combinations will not, however, constitute the most elegant and distinguished costumes of the season. Suits of plain plush or velvet, with lining of satin wherever it is visible, and buttons of bronze, old silver, or carved pearl, will be more exclusively worn, the skirts showing little trimming, and no overskirts, and the coat boddice having a jabot of lace. Waistcoats are reintroduced into London,but herV the large collar or small cape is preferred Seal-brown suits are made with skirts upon the fronts of which there is a great deal of shir rit g, end which are finished with a deep bisque high in the throat and buttont and over in deubie breasted fashion from the bust down. The cuffs and a roiling coat collar are of seal brown plush lined with brown satin merveil leux; and a heavy silk cord or ornament is usu ally arranged on the coat at the hack. The Jersey dresses are very pretty and likely to be fashionable with the very best class of women who are not too old for a style which is youthful as well as graceful. It is made in fine twilled wool, with two kilting* and a bod dice of elastic cloth buttoned at the back with small gilt or silver buttons, and glove-fitting. The scarf drapery is arranged in a double se ries of folds, and is turned upward so that it eas ly forms a convenient pocket on the right side. Thick, soft silk in darkly blended colors, satin merveilleux to match, or dark crimson, wine or garnet silk, or corded satin are used for these folds. THE RATIONAL DRESS. There is much inquiry in regard to the “Ra tional” Dress Association in England, of which Lady Harberton is President, and which owes to her the invention of a costume intended to solve the problem of easy locomotion and freedom from weight which are and have been the great desiderata in a dress intended for practicable, comfortable, every day wear. An immense amount of ridicule has been ex pended and an unnecessary exposure of igno rance made in discussing the b .sis of Lady Harberton's reform, because it involves what she cal s a “divided” skirt, what is generally known as trousers. In reality these only differ from the trousers which accompany a lady’s riding habit in having a deep yoke attached, which fits around the hips but does not touch the waist line, and also in beiDg longer and wider about the ankles. A pattern of this “divided” skirt, cut and sent me by Mrs. E. M. King, the Secretary of the “Rational” Dress Society, lies before me now, and attached to it is a diagram showing how the yoke or “band” should be attached or worn so that the weight or chief pressure may fall upon the lower line, where it is united to the divided skirt. Mrs. Kine writes from London: “The pattern of the Rational Dress Society which I forward you is the one I send for lady trycicle riding. 'lhat for walking isjastthe same, only it is generally preferred about four inches larger around the ankles.” A printed description of the divided skirt is as follows: “The divided skirt is a skirt divided between the legs so as to clothe each leg separately; the underclothing suitably arranged beneath this. By this means greater convenience and freer use of the limbs is gained, and, for the first time, the lower part of a woman’s body is properly and decently clothed. The divided skirt should come to about the ankle, quite clearing the gr und. It can be made as full or as narrow as the wearer may desire. An or dinary dress skirt is worn over this, which may be as much or as little trimmed as the wearer may fancy, although to secure 1 ght ness the less the better. Also, this skirt may be worn as long or as short as the wearer may think proper. The divided and upper skirts must be of the same material. 'J he divided skirt may appear under the top skirt about two inches whhout exciting the least unpleas ant notice. The divided skirt and the under garments are fastened to a broad band fitted round the hips, so avoiding pressure of any sort arcund the waist. The top part of the dress may be any loose body or jacket the wearer may choose, always avoiding bands, ligatures, or pressure of any sort from below the fixed ribs to the top of the hips. In a cos tume of this sort the weight of clothing may be reduced ne-half, because as the divided skirts cover the body fully and evenly, fewer layers of clothing are required and less mate rial in their construction. We have here a style of drees by which no internal organ can be injured, no muscle Cramped, no movement of the body impeded, and to which the wearer may add as much grace and beauty as her own good taste may direct.” The entire clothing of a lady dressed accord ing to “rational” ideas consists of a gauze merino “combination” under garment, an ad ditional one, high or low, or cotton, silk or linen, trimmed as taste may dictate, and the costume, which is composed of the divided skirt and the upper dress—both of the one ma terial. Underskirts, white or colored, are quite dispensed with and the amount of clothing as well as the number of pieces reduced to the lowest terms. In warm weather, in warm cli mates, or with ladies who are not habituated to the wearing of flannels, the merino combi nation may be dispensed with, or a small silk or gauze skirt substituted. It is a matter of choice toe whether corsets are worn or not. The Rational Dress Society opposes all ligatures and tight fitting boddices, including corsets, as injurious, but a well made, well shaped, flexi ble corset can be worn without injury, and this is a matter to be determined by the individual wearer. It ought to be stated that the divided skirt is not the sole nor even a prominent article of the creed of the Rational Dress Society, nor is adoption of it indispensable to membership. Their war is against what is “indecent,” “in jurious,” "deforming” and “vulgar,” and in these categories are classed cri: olines, crino lettes, very high heeled shoes, and exaggera tions of all kinds. The width of the divided skirt around the ankle, its trimming, and the trimming of the outer dress skirt (shorter by two inches only), sample as it may be, is “con fusing,” intentionally so to the eye, and even in the street the difference between the “rational” dress and an ordinary short walk ing dress is not perceptible. Lady Harber ton, who is a tall and distinguished look ng woman, wears this dress without attracting any attention, and others also. A model of the costume is now on exhibition at Mme. Demorest’s in this city, and the Co-operative Dress Association will reproduce it to order. A SCHOOL AND COLLEGE DRESS# I must admit that my own first impression in regard to the divided skirt costume was one of prejudice against ,it. It seemed to savor too much of Bloomerism ever to become popular; was apparently too intricate for the ordinary apprehension, and therefore added to the com plications of the dress question instead of sim plifying them. But a better acquaintance with the subject has greatly modified this view. I do not suppose the rational dress will com mend itself to irrational people, or to those who consider the whole question of dress as quite out of the pale of common sense, and one to be judged entirely by the light of in coming and outgrowing fashion. But it is worth the attention of those who need a practical walking or working dress, and especially of young women aDd §irlß who want a sensible college and school ress in which they can work, walk, row dig climb, play lawn-tennis, tide a tricycle and be decent. No girl can do these things and wear hooped skirts, bustles, and the ordinary ureas without a sacrifice of modesty “as well as re finement and natural grace. ESTABLISHED 1850. A needed protest. Apart from conflicting opinion in regard to the “Rational' drees, it seems a pity that the ectual and primary intention of the society should have been intentionally or unintention ally on the part of its opponents retired to the background, and the most radical side of an innovation which was introduced more or less as an experiment brought to the front. It is quite time that an open, fearless, and persist ent protest was made against any attempt to revive or perpetuate manifest indecencies, vul garities, and injurious fashions in dress, and a widespread opinion exists both in this country and England, which would be found formida bly strong if unhampered by revolutionary ideas. An attempt will shortly be made to ob tain an expression from the intelligent women of America in regard to two points relating to dress upon which there ought not to be two opinions, and which ought at once to receive the united condemnation of all pure-minded, honest women. One is the renewal of the bus tie; the other the attempt to naturalize here the low neck for “full” dress The crea tor of this revival of the “crinolette” are men whose simple idea is trade. They were in the business years ago; they lost money by the subsidence of the hoop vogue; they have ever since been trying to start the “fashion” again by having authoritative paragraphs written to im pose upon the ignorant, and by inducing corset and other shops to keep their wares on exhibition. This autumn a decisive step was felt to be necessary, and the entire ignorance of the originators of any advance in the minds or thought of women is exhibited plainly in the new article by which it is proposed to “improve” the gen eral outline of a woman’s form. It in effect creates two humps, one on each hip, ala Marie Antoinette, and the walk which accompanies this singular manifestation of physical perfec tion is the fac timile of the half-jerk, half-wad dle of a double panniered and overloaded don key. This is what it suggests, and the state ment is not intended as an exaggeration or the the mere forcing of a grotesque comparison. It is simply to show how far removed the ideas of these people are who endeavor to foist these things upon the public from any common not co say artistic sense, and how little credit they give to women for the exer cise of reason where dress is concerned. A feeble hope is expressed in some fashionable quitters that bustles will not again attain the measure of absurdity that called down upon them before such a storm of ridicule; yet the very beginning is almost worse than the previ ous ending, and shows plainly enough that only a very little encouragement is needed to induce manufaturers at least to go any lengths or breadths. At present the bustle has made very little headway. It is not found in the best shops, nor among the best classes; and it is easy to prevent it from obtaining a foothold, but it ought to be done in a thorough and unmistak able manner. Intelligent women everywhere should refuse to countenance such attempts at distortion and deformity, and give manufactu rers and dealers to understand that a fashion can only exist by the consent of a majority, and that they refuse their consent to that which has no excuse in art, sense or taste for existence. THE GREAT MOTHER. In the play of the “Cup.” as produced by Mr. Irving at the Lyceum Theatre in London, one of the scenes gives the interior of a tem ple dedicated to the service of a goddess, the Great Mother, represented by the colossal fig ure of a grand, many-bosomed woman, with little children of all types in her wide arms. This is at first a shock to the ultra modesty of some who can look upon a half dressed woman in a ball room without the slightest disturb ance. The raison detre in one instance is visible, in the other it is not. It is considered vulgar for a woman to nurse her baby in public, and if compelled to do so by stress of circum stances, the modest woman conceals the foun tain from which the infant draws its suste nance as completely as possible; yet this is a natural and beautiful provision for the supply of an imperative want, and has been made the theme of poet and artist, while for such an ex hibition as ia sometimes made to the gaze of libertines, and men and women who are stran gers. and who only look to geer, or blush, to” one who has not the grace to blush for herself there is no excuse, no possibility of motive, save a vanity so overpowering as to kill mod esty. Some may plead thoughtlessness, but if the public opinion among women expresses itself as it ought, this cannot long be consid ered a reason for outraging the finer sense of those women who have thought upon the subject. Why should women expose their necks and arms to the shoulder any more than men? Why should it be considered any more decent, any less vul gar? Yet, imagine a man presenting himself in suchjguise in any assemblage! Is it be cause women have more flesh to show than men, or because they imagine it enhances tueir attractions and acts as a magnet to men? Whatever the motive let it be understood for what it is, let it be a badge, an insignia, a note of warning to some, an evidence to all that the sacrifice is made upon the altar of a vanity which leaves no room for refinement of deli cacy and not upon that of fashion. ENGLISH WOOLEN MANUFACTURES. As well attempt to oppose the natural cur rent of a stream as the strong tide of public opinion when it has set in a certain direction, and the general ignorance in regard to the ex tent of social influence has found no better ex emplification of late than in the well intention ed effort of an English lady of rank, the Coun tess of Bective, to make alpaca “fashionable.” Alpaca and the stiff worsted serges received their sentence ten years or more ago when cash mere. camel’s hair, and the soft woolen goods of French manufacture came to the front. American aspirants for pre-eminence in the manufacture of woolen dress goods took the front, and to-day as fine camel’s hair cloths and other softly draping woolens are turned out of native mills as can be obtained abroad—-al most; at least, as good for popular use and wear. But the British manufacturer, or at least the British workman, could not unlearn his tra ditions. There are plenty of cases on record in which the manufacturer with his larger ex perience and clearer Insight attempted to in troduce new machinery and train his work people to meet new demands, but they would not be trained, they would not be taught, they would not stand any innovation, they would go on in the old way or not at all; and their igno rance and stupidity left them stranded while the advancing tide carried ships out to sea freighted with cargoes bringing profit to others, but not to them. Now the British workman sends up a cry of distress and insists that women shall in some way be made to dress themselves in al paca, and the only way that is open is to get some titled lady to "set an example,” and, through her dressmaker and such snobs as she can find on the press, make It “fashionable To hear the sage reflections in regard to the matter one would imagine that woolen fabrics of every description had been waiting for the Countess of Bective to endow them with a soul before they could come into active existance In reality woolen materials have not been so universally used for half a century as since the soft cashmere finished flannels, the camel’s hairs, the vigognes, the chuddah cloths, and other highly finished and softly draping fab rics took the hearts of women by storm. It is a common thing nowadays to hear a lady say that she prefers wool to silk, but no one would think of preferring the wirey, unyielding alpaca to silk. Alpaca al ways stood as a synonym for all that was dreary and unattractive in life: it was the badge of the bard worker, and its uncompro mising tendencies as having a natural affilia tion with the most exasperating of boarding housekeepers. Those who were bcundbyits quality of endurance (give everything its due) in former years, remember it without tender ness and have no desire to see it resussitated not even to please the British workman who should have adapted himself to the growth and progress of the age in refinement, and rot expect that women should live and die in alpaca that he may enjoy his ignorance and his beer. SATIN MERVEILLEUX. This charming fabric, which has recently sprung into such fashionable pre eminence and is necessarily so often quoted, Is an unknown quantity to those who lire at a distance from the fashionable centres and must judge from hearsay or the use to which a fabric is put as to what it really is. Satin merveilleex is a fine soft corded sattn-flnished silk which hag not the stiffness or impenetrability of gros grain, nor the smooth gloss of satis, but takes on lovely tints, falls easily into graceful folds, and is specially adapted therefore to evening dresses and for the princeßße bodices which are draped over the hips, and are so useful and pretty for half evening or at home toilets. Satin mervelleux Is employed in many different ways, however, old as well as young women like it, and in grey or black it lg as suitable for the grandmamma as the ivory and cream ticts are for the grand daughter. The latter combines well with Nun’s veiling and thin moussliu de lalnes on the con struction of short evening toilettes, not too ex pensive and suited for small dances and socia bles. The skirt is of all wool, and ruffled to the knee, the back may be draped or ruffled according to taste, and the princesse boddice has a full trimming of Bpanish lace en cascade and cream satin ribbon, a large bow at the back being a prominent feature. Evening dresses up to a certain age are uni versally made short, and the effect is simple Home show the puffed sleeves and belted waist: others shirred sleeves with masses of finely pleated ruffling, and still others elbow sleeves of Spanish lace. Some beautiful dresses are In preparation, the skirts of which are enriched with flounces of Spanish point lace draped upon the left side and garnitured with clusters of ribbon and lace. The boddice is of striped satin merveilleux very much trimmed with Spanish point lace and ribbon, and open but not square at the throat. The V shaped opening at the neck, it may be as well to re mark, is much more fashionable than boddices cut square. The style Is in harmony with the pointed princesse boddices,and a square at the neck, it is hardly naccessary to say, should be carried out in the lines upon the lower boddice and skirt. No more ignorant mistake can occur in ihe construction of a toilet than to make a jumble of architectural or mathemati cal lines. Satin merveilleux is used for cloaks, fur and and satin lined, and is for this purpose less glossy than satin, more effective than satin de lyon. A heavier variety is, of course, em ployed for this purpose. 00-OPERATIVE DRESS, This association is an accomplished fact,and has announoed Its formal opening early in October. Its building Is one of the finest in New York for the purpose, comprising six floors two hundred and fifty feet deep by fifty feet wide on one of the wide street* (Twenty third), and is fitted with three elevators, tele phones, electric lights, and every modern im provement. It has also secured the services of efficient superintendents in their different de partments, and it only remains to be seen whether the business methods will show suffi cient advance, and the economic aspect ad vantage enough to secure a wide patronage. The one enormous drawback in this country to cheap production Is the high nrioe of compared with that of Europsah^on-tries and its inferioi !tj. This create? an aggregate of expenditure that' doubles the sum total tor the same requirements abroad, and renders it exceedingly difficult to sell cheap and still meet the exactions of expert- eneed American women-buyers. The club feature is expected to be a great attraction and its privileges will have a special value for ladies living at a distance. Monthly reunions, a circulating library, a reading room, with club conveniences for writing, resting, lunching, and dining are part of the programme, and a special entrance is provided for members who wish to reach the club rooms, and avail them selves of the opportunities without going through the business sections. Among the imported costumes already received for the opening is a walking suit of bottle-green satin duchesse and moire antique, called the Formosa. The “Victoria” is of dark olive satin Khadamas. moire antique and silk velvet, all in one color. The “Wanda” Is a combination of dark satin duchesse and ombre striped plush. “Noblesse” is a trained dress.jall black and very rich—a combination of black velvet and satin merveilleux, trimmed with a profusion of aucl jet embroidery and fringe. Qneonese is also Mack. It is a walking suit of black s: 'in beautifully trimmed with embroidery of fine cut jet and steel. The “Poutresina is a seal brown suit of satin in©r veilleux trimmed with plush. The “Very Good is a black walking dress of satin mer veilleux, moire antique, and silk velvet. The “Martigny” is a bronze brow n walking suit of satin and piush, the best made of old gold moire antique. Manv new esthetic designs are in preparation and historic models will be exhibited, designed bv Mr. Frank Millet, the art is who designed the costumes for the Greek play produced at Harvard. The ground floor of the building Is devoted to all kinds of piece goods and small wares.the second floor to suits and children’s clothing, also articles for gentlemen. The third floor contains an arcade in which are departments for shoes, millinery, perfumery, stationery, and many others. The upper floors are devoted to club purposes and work rooms. The Presi dent's room, fitting rooms and the like are on the second floor. BONNETS AND FCRB. I have not space for any detail in regard to bonnets, furs, cloaks, or outdoor wear gener ally, and, Indeed, it is too early to predict with certainty matters which depend largely upon the temperature—on the comparative coldness or mildness of the session. In general terms it may be said that both bats and bonnets will be large, faced with velvet or plush, and trimmed with feathers, the cabriolet shape and the high, narrow crowned poke being the favored shapes in the most fashionable circles. But the use of plush will modify size and high color, and the employment of grid trimmings favor the small bonnet later in: he season. Feather loques and turbans are put upon the market in immense quantities this fall, but they are a local fashion and most uubecoming with their flat shapes and bright, shiny sur faces. The new thing in furs is a long narrow collar, shaped to the neck but extending In narrow tabs to the top of a belted waist—a modifica tion of the old-fashioned Victorine. It is made in black fox, seal, grebe, Russian chinchilla, otter and natural beaver—the most fashionable furs of the season. The small cape or straight pelerine is made in beaver, fox and seal, and Is a very stylish addition to a walking suit of cloth or velvet. The long-haired furs are not in vogue just now; only those that are fine, short and smooth, or very soft and close, as beaver and Russian chinchilla. The finest fur lined cloaks are of the dolman shape, and are fifty inches long. They are made of brocaded silk, satin merveilleux, and satin de Lyon, lined with whole squirrel and trimmed with seal, otter, black fox, or Rus sian chinchilla. What were known as the “pointed” furs are less used than formerly. Natural beaver is used more for sets—cape or collar and muff. They are specially suited for wear with mastic colored be ever cloth coats and felt hats of the same shade trimmed with feathers and satin to match and faced with coral red or crimson plush. Coral red silk trimme l with white lace will be in high vogue this winter for evening dress es, particularly for blondes with very fair hair. Embroidered gloves and gloves puffed upon the arm are used more upon the stage than elsewhere; they are neither lady-like nor any improvement to the shape of the arm! and hand. Jenny June.

It says “The long array of Conkling preserves will send their dummy delegates as heretofore, calmly unconscious of the great man's having done anything to forfeit respect or invite contumely.” Sirs. Cooper, a cousin of Bob Inger soil, has been pronounced a heretic by a vote of the Presbytery of San Francisco because she announced her disbelief in the story of Jonah and the whale. Dur ing the trial, which was long and excit ing, Mrs. Cooper remarked that she would rather have her cousin Ingersoll’s society in hell than that of her former pastor in heaven. A Washington dispatch says it is be lived as probable that in the case of Gui teau, after his trial and conviction before the courts of the District, a writ of habeas corpus will be sued out on exception to the jurisdiction of the District of Co lumbia authorities. This would bring the case finally for review and judgment before the Supreme Court of the United States. Cleveland Herald: “While all the nation was standing uncovered before the body of Garfield, lying dead under the Capitol’s dome, it was Roscoe Conkling who was struggling and sweat ing to gain control of a little county convention in his district No wonder that the people are afraid that this man may again come into possession of Bome measure of power.” Owing to the continued drough f, the wood fires in Northwestern New York are still spreading and causing great de struction. Much of the soil being peaty the fires burrow to a depth of two or three feet, and the crops and railroad ties, as well as trees, fences, telegraph poles and farm buildings have been de stroyed. The burning district lies along the railroads between Buffalo and Roch ester and Buffalo and Batavia. Senator Garland, of Arkansas, says there is not a particle of truth ia the story telegraphed from Chicago that he and Senator Edmunds had agreed on a plan for the organization of the Senate. He says that he and Senator Edmunds and other Senators talked a good deal among themselves on the journey to Cleveland and while there, but they neither committed themselves or under took to commit any one else to any pro jected basis of agreement. The Washington Star notes it as a sin gular coincidence that a portion of the remains of President Garfield, who was murdered by an assassin, should have been carried to the same building in which President Lincoln %!1 by an as sassin’s hand. The Army Medical Mu seum, Ford's old Theatre, now contains the intestines, part of the vertebral col umn and other portions of the anatomy of the late President, which were taken there for examination by surgical ex perts. The Washington Star holds that “the theory advanced in some stalwart jour nals that President Arthur can designate a Senator to call the body to order, and who will be, for the time being, invested with the powers and duties of President pro tempore, is as erroneous as the sug gestion that the Sergeant at Arms is the proper officer to handle the gavel and read the President’s proclamation con vening the extra session.” The Star forgets that the stalwarts in politics recognize only the higher law. There is grave danger of the demoli tion of the familiar theory of Republican organs that all wickedness, wrong doing and miscellaneous turpitude arc the special sign and token of the partisan called Democrat The Philadelphia Times (Ind.), after a review of the doubt ful and devious methods of the mana gers of both Republican factions in New York, concludes: “Business of this sort would have been natural enough to ex pect on the part of an abandoned party like the Democratic, but from the chil dren of light, the wardens of the very temple of the civic virtues, such a spec tacle makes the thoughtless to smile and the judicious to grieve.” There is much plausibility in the re port that ex-Benator Dorsey will be ap pointed Postmaster General. He was one of the two or three leading managers of last year’s campaign, and at a ban quet given him in New York city, at which the then Vice President compli merited him very highly, was given ex clusive credit for the purchase of Indiana in October Indeed, if we rightly re member, Mr. Arthur then credited him with the Republican euccess in the gen eral election. It is certain, remarks the Bridgeport Farmer, that he rendered valuable and conspicuous services, and has been rather persecuted than rewarded for them. But, despite these facts, it is •carcely probable that the President will dare to appoint so prominent a “star router” to the Post Office Department. Mr. Dorsey should feel content with the probable limitation of the star route prosecutions to the smaller fry of the ring. President Arthur's Ordeal. Just in proportion aa President Gar field’s powers and skill as a party leader, aided by Mr. Blame’s adroitness, would have enabled him to hold his party to gether despite whatever reforms he might have set on foot, so, it is likely, will his successor fall short of doing so if he resolves on pursuing a similar course. How he can escape doing this without inviting an injurious judgment upon the party at the hands of the peo ple, it is difficult to see. President Arthur, judged from his utterances, is sincere in the intention, to the best of his ability, to execute the purposes of his predecessor. It is in this belief that patriotic Democrats are among his smeerest well wishers. But by none is he more distrusted than by the ardent supporters of the late President in his own party and particularly by the half breeds of New York. These last are actuated in their suspicions by tbe course of the stal warts of that State led by Mr. Conkling, President Arthur's whilom protector and patron. Mr. Conkling, not content with his wretched defeat in the Assembly, is eneaced in pursuing a vindication at the hands of the people, and, if half breed organs are to be credited, where logic will not avail, the argument of the prize ring is being employed by his faithful henchmen. Furthermore, he is credited with being in possession of proof that will make tbe success of h s oppo nents, when it comes to be exhibited, far more humiliating than tbe defeat that overtook himself. The coming State Con vention cannotbe harmonious, and must leave legacies of hate and hostility that will survive for years to come. Despite the fact that President Arthur, a former stalwart, now holds sway, the Republicans of New York appear to be for the most part resolutely committed to the programme which contemplated the sma s hing of the Conkling machine, and to save the Empire State to the party in future, the carrying of which under the most harmonious circumstances is but problematical, President Arthur must placate them; and when he does so he arrays agiinst himself his former friends. It appears at present that it is to be war to the knife between tbe fac tions of the party in New York. Even an equitable distribution of the spoils does not appear to promise much, for the stalwarts are fighting not merely for ex istence, but for victory also. President Arthur has not yet made up his Cabinet. Yet, when he comes to do so he will require most consummate diplomacy. If he fill3 it with Garfield men a howl will go up from the stalwart ranks, and, if with stalwarts, he will forfeit the respect of the opposi tion and awaken the disgust of the Democrats. Neither will a mixture do. One will overbal ance the other, or, if not, there will be lack of harmony. Throughout the country the supporters of the late Presi dent will be apt to demand too much of his successor, and the machine will ask favors that he cannot safely grant. No President ever had a more trying ordeal before him, and, though his aims may be high and his purposes pure, un less there is a universal burial of fac tional distrust, the outcome of his ad ministration cannot fail to be hurtful to the sway of Republicanism. The country will be the better for any benefit that President Arthur may work it, and it will survive the quarrels of warring factions. Meanwhile the first duty of Democracy is to country, the next to party, and, if the signs are not woefully misleading, it will be found that, under the coming regime, the per formance of the one will be the fulfill ment of the other, and that in deserving the confidence of the people it will reap its reward. A Short Extra Session Anticipated. According to the Star the general im pression in Washington is that the extra session of the Senate will scarcely extend beyond a week, as there will be but little for it to do. Nothing but executive busi ness can be transacted, and it is not be lieved President Arthur will have much to submit. The theory of a short session is founded upon the supposition that the organization will be effected without a partisan fight All the Indications point to a quiet and peaceable organization through mutual concession. Should a dispute over the offices to be filled arise, a deadlock would probably ensue and continue until the regular meeting of Congress. But there is no reason to appre hend such unseemly conduct on the part of our highest legislative body. The com mittees, according to a custom of the Senate, are created at each session to ex ist for and during that session; but should any dispute arise at the coming extra session over the division of com mittees, the whole question of their for mation may be deferred until the regu lar session, as the few appointments likely to be made by the President will not necessarily require consideration by committees. The plan of conceding the President pro tempore and the-Secretary to the Democrats and of according the committees to the Republicans seems to meet with general favor, and, no doubt, some such compromise will be adopted. The Legislature and the State Road Lease. The able speech of Senator Brown, which we published on Monday last, would seem so clearly to vindicate the in tegrity of the lease of the State Road, and tos how the purely trivial and technical character of the grounds upon which the action of the Legislature authorizing proceedings for canceling the lease is based, that nothing more was necessary to be said on the subject But as the question is one involving, as we conceive, the good faith of the State, as well as the interests of the people, we present in an other column an able editorial from the Atlanta Constitution, in which the views of Senator Brown are fully indorsed and sustained, as we doubt not they will be by the voters of Georgia whenever their voice can be heard. It is a curious fact that the census of Utah makes the number of females in that land of many wives but 69,436, or less than the number of males by 5,035. If the census be correct there is but a fraction of a female to each male of the population. Of the total population, 143,907, there are 99,974 native bornjand 43,933 foreign born. Of the whole number of inhabitants, 20,000 in round numbers are Gentiles and 124,000 Mor mons, and of the Mormons but 3,000 have more than one wife. There are, however, 7,000 women with but a frac tion of a husband apiece. Most of the polygamists are old people. The expen siveress of feminine apparel of late years has put an effective check upon the disposition of the young to poly gamy- King Kalakaua, of the Hawaiian Islands, objects seriously to being called “King Calico,” the usual pronunciation of his ridiculous name. He insists on every vowel in his name being pro nounced seperately. Tbe Trade of Fernandina With the steady development of Flori da the importance of Fernandina as a commercial mart cannot but increase. Few cities on the South Atlantic sea board are more favorably placed or are better endowed by nature for the foster ing of commerce. The evidences of Fernandina’s growth are many and strik ing, and, taken altogether, they predict for her, with no uncertainty, an honora ble distinction among her sister mari time cities. The following tables of shipments handled at Fernandina for the years specified speak for themselves, and justify the expectations of those who speak confidently of her future. For the statistics presented we are indebted to W. J. Woodward, Esq., Auditor of the Transit Railroad. Of oranges, there arrived at Feroan nandina from the line of the Transit Railroad for the year Crates. 1878 5.701 18J9 16.017 1830 81.021 Total for the throe rears 102,719 Of red cedar, there were shipped in Cases.

For the year stated there were shipped of rosin from— Pounds. Brunswick 43,369 St. Mary’s 5.340 Fernandina 30,249 Jacksonville 6,719 For the same period there were ship ped of spirits turpentine from— Barrels Brunswick 8,767 St. Mary’s 1,501 Fernandina 5,443 Jac ksonrilie 1,357 Considering that it has been only within the past few years that Fernandi na has awakened to the destiny that thrift, industry and perseverance can ac complish for her, the strides she has al ready taken have set her far on the road to its achievement. It needs but the maintenance of the spirit evoked and enlargement of the appliances already at her command to bring about its full re alixation. A Candidate’s Woes. The Hon. Charles S. Wolfe, the inde pendent Republican candidate for Treas urer of Pennsylvania, is already having a rough experience. Immediately on the commencement of his candidacy the Re publican press of Pennsylvania opened a broadside on him along the whole line, in which such epithets as “traitor,” "deserter,” etc., were fiercely hurled at him. Hardly had he recovered from this raking, when some thief ent; red his apartments in a Philadelphia h tel and stole therefrom his carefully prepared speech with which he had expected to startle the natives and win thousands of votes. And now comes the Building Association League of Philadelphia, which denounces Mr. Wolfe for his op position in the Legislature to building association interests, and declares him unworthy of the votes of the members of these associations. For a man who has been a candidate but two weeks it must be conceded that Mr. Wolfe has had it a little rough, but it is likely only a foretaste of what he will experience by the “ides of November.” New Orleans Democrat: "A press dispatch from New York announces the consolidation of 2,138 miles of railroad, hitherto under different management, bat now placed under the sole control of ‘King Cole.’ These railroads reticulate seven border and Southern States. The consolidation seems to have had for its purpose the interests of the port of Nor folk, Va. Thus it may be safely assumed that a large quantity of the cotton of the South Atlantic States and the varied produce of the border States, will pour through Norfolk to the different foreign markets. This new railroad monopoly cannot help but injure the traffic of Charleston and Savannah, and perhaps both Pensacola and Mobile.” Was it to accomplish this end that our Georgia Legislature gave “this new rail road mooopoly” a charter to build a line parallel with that of the State Road and run rough-shod over other railroads in the State? The celebrated Mexican scientist, Dr. Del Rio, claims to have discovered an antidote for that scourge of the tropics, the yellow fever—vomito. He is said to have passed many years in scientific in vestigation into this dread disease, to have found out what it was, and then discovered an almost infallible cure for it During the last jear he treated many cases in advanced stage of sickness, aDd saved 82 per cent, of them, while under the old method of treatment 89 per cent, died. Dr. Del Rio deserves, and will receive the gratitude of the people of this entire continent, if his claim proves well founded. This country leads the world in the extent of telegraph lines.

Cincinnati Enquirer “The incident of two distinguished United States Senators smoking their cigars as they rode in the funeral procession at Cleve land is regarded by a correspondent as an offense against decency of sufficient magnitude to justify mention in the general report of the ceremonies. For our own part we regard thia as a very small offense —for United States Sena tors. Guiteau having complained that he could scarcely breathe in his cell, a part of the brick work, which closed all but eight inches of his cell window, has been removed. The opening is now about twelve inches. He is in constant fear for his life, and the appearance of a stranger at any point whence a shot at him might be made always excites him, and leads to suggestions on his part as to additional measures for his protec tion. The Lease of the Western and At lantic Railroad. Atlanta Constitution. The Legislature, after an unusually long session, has adj joined, havlDg done some wise things and some that were unwise. Among the latter we are obliged to class the resolutions instructing the Attorney Genera), In case he is not satisfied about certain points referred to him, to commence suit for the forfeiture of the lease of the Western aDd Atlantic Railroad. If there is any one thing upon which the people of Georgia are practically a nlt their approval of tse lease of the S.ate Road. The company took it when it was very much run down and in a dangerous condition—when the Bullock adminis.ra tion was caliiDg for half a million of dollars as an appropriation to repair it. The .esaees were men of high character, and they have complied with the laws of the lease In every particular. We understand there has never been an instance,in nearly eleven years,when they have fallen one single day behind the payment of the monthly rental when due. They always pay on the last day of the month unless it is Sunday, and then they pay on the Saturday before. They have put their earnings into the improvement of the road, till experience-3 railroad men say it is worth from half a million to a million dollars more than when the lessees took it. We understand the actual cost of these improvements paid for out of the incomes of the company have been between five and seven hundred thou sand dollars. There is no provision in the lease act that gives the company anything for betterments, and still they have gone forward and taken up old iron rails and put down new steel rails, and torn out old wood en bridges and put in new iron bridges, and in every particular they have brought up the road from a condition where it could scarcely be operated to first class For the first three or four years the company paid not a dollar of dividends to stockholders bat put everything into the improvement of tbe road. They then issued a batch of income bonds, and they have since been paying the interest and part of the bonds out of the net earnings made by the company. Their income is now a very handsome one. Bat the present Legislature having authorized Colonel Cole to build a railroad by the side of the Western and At lantic Railroad, it will, of course, take off a large part of the profits of the lessees for the next few years, and no reasonable man can calculate on extravagant Incomes with this competition. It follows, therefore, that when the incomes are averaged through the twenty years the Dtt amount will be com paratively small In view of the heavy re sponsibilities the lessees took and the great efforts they have made, and the good faith with which they have kept their contract. In this state of the case resolutions were Introduced into the two Houses, providing for tbe appointment of a committee to in vestigate two questions—one the present ownership of the shares, and the other whether the company had been guilty of discrimination as agalDst any railroad com panies or Individuals. The current report about the streets at the time was, that the lobby had done all in their power to insti gate such a proceeding in tbe hopes of re ceiving compensation for defending the lease,but we understand the President of the road announced from the commencement that he wonld employ no one to defend a measure so well settled and so generally satisfactory to the people. It was also re ported by Madam Rumor that certain able attorneys in the Btate were competent to do more bnsiness than they have at present, and that they have no objection to a heavv suit in court, to determine the validity of the State Road lease, as they would expect to be retained, or in some way to get in as counsel for the State; and after five or ten years litigation, after the case has probably been to the Supreme Court of the United S’ates, to bring in bills for five or ten thou sand dollars each for services rendered to the people, to be paid out of the people’s treasury. We paid no attention to either report, supposing rcallv that the investiga tion amounted to nothing, as we did not presume the representatives of the people would be guilty of a fault or desire to mis represent the wishes of their constituents by any attempt to disturb the lessees of tbe State Road; or by an attempt to get up a long and expensive litigation between the people of the Btate, who are satisfied with the lease, and the lessees of the road who have dealt in perfect good faith with the people. But we find we were mistaken in this cal culation. The committee, after a long in vestigation, and after publishing a consid erable volume of testimony at the expense of the S’ate, finally agreed on a unanimous report, referring two questions to tbe At torney Genera!—one as to the sufficiency of the bond given by the lessees. And we re mark inst here, we are unable to find in the resolution appointing a committee any in structions to them to investigate that ques tion. The other to inquire whether there have been transfers of shares to persons out side of the State, putting a majority of tbe stock out of the State. We believe it is not contended by any one that a majority of those who arpear on the books of the company to be owners of tbe shares re side out of the State. But the commit tee raised the question whether they are all bona Jlde owners or whether they may not represent parties outside of the Btate; in the event the Attorney General is not satisfied on the last proposition he has to commence proceedings for the forfeiture of the lea-’e. If he is Dot satisfied about tbe bond he has to give sixty days within which to give anew bond or to make the new one good, or he is to commence proceedings to forfeit the lease. Now, we can see no earthly use in all this ado unless It be In tbe Inter est of attorneys. The people certainly have no Interest In getting up such litigation. Thejbond of the lessees requires two things— first, the prompt payment of the rental each month; second, that the road be returned In as good condition as the lesseees found it. As already stated, for nearly eleven years the lessees have paid promptly the monthly rental on the day it was due, while they bad under the law twenty days after the end of the month within which to pay It. The character of those who control the company for financial promptness Is a sufficient guar antee that there will never be any doubt about the prompt payment of the rental. And there is certainly no use for a bond at all on the other proposition, for as the road Is now worth more than a half a million of dollars in excess of its value when the lease was made, and the business Is so much lar ger than it was ten years ago, it would be Impossible for the lessees to transact the business of the road, if they were to let it run down as low as it wa6 when they got it. We have, therefore, in the present condition of the road, and the necessity that compels them to keep it in better order than they got it, an ample guarantee that it will be returned as good as when received. Then why should we go to law at this stage with the lessees on the question of the bond or on the question of tne ownership of the shares? There was a provision in the lease act that the company who were to become lessee* should a ma jority of them be citizens of Georgia. This was to prevent the road from railing Into the hands of a company of Northern specula tors who might be irresponsible. But there is no provision in the lease act that requires the original lessees to continue to own their shares or to continue to keep a majority of their shares in the State. Nor Is there any provision in case there is a majority of one in the State, that if that one were to sell his 6hare to somebody out of tbe Btate this would forfeit the interest of tbe rest of the shareholders. In would simply be absurd. Tbe law makes provision In case of the death of one of the lessees, In certain con tingencies, that the Ordinary may order his share sold, and there Is nothing that pre vents a citizen of another State from buying it. Thia might turn the scale and put a ma jority of the stockholders outside of the State. Would anybody contend that the lease was forfeited on that account, or that the public care ODe way or the other wheth er the shares were 6till held by the original lessees or by some other good citizens The original lessees being by statute the directors for tbe whole period of the lease, and in case of the death of either his legal representatives being Directors, and the original lessees being alone responsible to the State, they have the management, and they have managed well and to the satisfac tion of the people. Then why do the peo ple of Georgia care who may own bonds In the company or who may own pecuniary in terests in the shares? Whv have a lawsuit that will cost the State of Georgia probably from $25,000 to $50,000 in expenses and lawyers’ fees and cost the lessees a large amount about a proposition that nobody in Georgia cares for? As to the bond, we have no doubt, from all we have learned, that It was originally executed according to law, that the railroad companies which signed it were bound, and that the present security of the lessees is worth more than twenty millions of dollars. It is true that Mr. Wadley has testified that tbe Central Road Is not liable because they gave either him or William B. Johnston the right to indorse for a company satisfactory to him, and that he did not give bis appro val to tbe company. We think it a sufficient reply to all this to say that Mr. Johnston, who was an officer and director of the company under that authori ty, did indorse and reported his proceedings back to the company, and for eleven years they have passed no resolution disapprov ing, nor has Mr. Wadley given the public any notice that he did not approve the com pany, but, on the contrary, has purchased an interestin the lease. Therefore, it is too late now for either Mr. Wadley or the Cen tral Railroad to deny tbe liability of that company on the bond of the lessees. They are clearly estopped by the act of their agent that was reported to them, and which they have never disapproved, but have per mitted the public to act under the Impres sion that they were bound for more than half the period of the lease. But, as already stated, If there were no bond, there is not a cit izen of Georgia under any apprehension. We can neither lose by a failure to return the road in as good con dition as the lessees got It, as it is out of the question for it to be worse; and, as Judg ing from their past conduct, every ,one knows they do not intend we shall; nor could we lose by the non-payment of the monthly rental, for, if the lessees fail as much as twenty days to pay that, the Gov ernor has the right to declare the lease for feited and take charge immediately. Then why all this litigation What motlye could either the committee of the Legislature have bad for authorizing any such pro e ceding The most important point to the public was whether the road Is run fairly as a trunk line, giving all connections a just showing, or whether they discriminated in favor of their own favorites, if they had any. But after the investigation tbe committee say there is no evidence of aDy discrimination. The road has, therefore, been worked fairly and justly. We believe, however, that the Governor and the Attorney General, In looking Into this whole case, will see the utter absurdity of the proceeding, and that they will refuse to involve the people and the leseees in a senseless and expensive litigation, when neither party desires it. Doubtless the eyes of the tax payers will be upon the Governor and the Attorney General in this matter, and they will want a very substantial reason for the litigation if there should be one. To put It simply on technical grounds will not satisfy them. They will want to know how tha public interest is subserved by it. As far as the question relates to the action of the Lsgislature we do not care further to discuss it. We have no doubt their con stituents when they look into it will put the proper estimate upon their services and reward them accordingly. And we shall not believe till we see It, that the Attorney General has been guilty of the follv of in volving the people and the lessees In a liti gation which can result to the benefit of no one but the attorneys employed.

Captain Samuel Baker, of the schooner Three Sisters, which arrived here last even ing from Philadelphia, with a cargo of coal, died very suddenly yesterday morning about ten o’clock, while coming up the river. We are informed that Captain Baker had been rather Indisposed the past several days, and on yesterday morning about half-past nine o’clock complained of a severe pain on the side of his face and head. He con cluded to retire to his cabin and lie down in the hope of obtaining some relief. About 10 o’clock one of the men came on deck and stated be thought that the Captain was dying. The pilot and the officers Im mediately went down and found the Cap'ain gasping and In an unconscious condition. He died a few minutes! after. When the schooner reached the city, Dr. B. F. Sbef tall, Coroner, was notified and an inquest was held, when a verdict of death irom heart disease was rendered. Captain Baker was about fifty-seven years of age, and wa well and favorably known in Savannah ship ping circles, having made a great many trips to this port. He leaves a wife and two daughters In Philadelphia, to whom the sad announcement will be a great shock, as be left that port apparently in perfect health. A minister from Ireland. Rev. David McMeekin, of the Presbyte rian Church of Ireland, preached yesterday morning at the Independent Presbyterian Church. The reverend gentleman’s text was 11. Cor., v:10: “For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ.” His sermon was a very Scriptural, logical and eloquent one—showing its author to be a man of uncommon power, and the congre gation were profoundly impressed. Mr. McMeekin is on a visit to Auu-rlct, but an effort will be made to secure his services for some congregation In Georgia. The church will be fortunate which has him for Ps pas tor. He will be the guest of Rjv. Mr. Kerr during his stay In Savannah. Outrageous Conduct. The conduct of certain boys and young men who, after the close of the base ball match on Anderson street yesterday after noon, rushed upon the cars on the Abercorn ■treet line, 1b represented as simply outrage ous. Some of them, it is stated, climbed upon the top of the cars In the attempt to avoid paying their fare, and annoyed the conductors and drivers exceedingly, and greatly disgusted the occupants of the cars, many of whom were ladidfr. We und°r stand that efforts will be made to procure the names of these parties, and that they will be arrested and arraigned before the Police Court. Nbootlng on tbe Street. Yesterday afternoon, about three o’clock, a negro, who was under the influence of liquor, got into a quarrelsome mood on the street, and jerking out an old “English bulldog'’ pistol, which carries a bullet the size of an ordinary marble, banged away at Dan. H‘*nd‘rson, colored, fortunately missing bim. The warrior was arrested, and carried to the barracks by Policeman Bangban. He refus-d positively to give any name, aod was locked up, and regis tered as “the unknown.” A DlaorUtrlr Female. Yesterday morning about 9 o’clock Police man Deignan’s attention was attracted to the outrageous conduct of a colored female who apparently had been tickling her thorax with mean whisky or beer and was exceed ingly boisterous and ugly. Her disgusting profanity could be beard teverzl blocks off. The officer arrested her and she was landed at the barracks In a sfaott time. She cave her name as Nellie Wright, but her conduct was decidedly wrong, and she will doubtless find it out this morning at the seaLce. A Boisterous Damsel. Last night about half past ten o’clock the neighborhood of Broughton and Rey nolds streets was aroused by a disturbance at the corner house. An investigation de veloped the fact that a dnsky female, Mar tha Jenkins by name, was cavorting around in an ugly mood and ra'sing the dickens generally. Policeman Grogan captured the irate Martha and waltzed her off to the bar racks,where she was given a room to rest In and cool off. Prayer Meetings Ueaumed. We are requested to announce that the Monday evening prayer meetings, formerly held under the auspices of the Your.g Men’s Christian Association, will be resumed at their rooms, 137 Perry street, this evening at 8 o’clock. The presence of *ll interest ed in the promotion of the Christian relig ion among young men in this city, both la dies and gentlemen, is earnestly desired. Creating a Rumpus in a House. About three o’clock yesterday afternoon the attention of Policeman Kelly was called to a disturbance in Tattnall street. On proceeding thither he found that the dis turbance was occasioned by Edward Mar tin, colored, whose spirits were aroused by Whisky stimulant. Edward was interrupted in hi* circus by the policeman, who trotted him off to the barracks. Friedman Fjector. The Friedman Ejector is the name of a small machine, weighing about twenty-five pounds, which is to pump out or eject li quids or water from wells, vessels, etc. It Is said to work very rapidly, and is small, convenient and easily handled.

The British steamship Cyphrynes, Captain Morice, from Galveston for Liverpool, with a cargo of cotton, put Into Tybee yesterday for a supply of coal. The Northern mail failed again on Sun day afternoon. It would appear that tbe mail service is getting demoralized, as this is the fifth failure within a week. Among tbe passengers who returned from New York Saturday were J. L. Taylor, Esq., General Ticket Agent Bavannah, Flori da and Western Railway, and wife. The Upper Cotton Press turned out one hundred and 6lxty bales of compressed cot ton In an hour, one day last week, and the work was well done, and only two com presses were used.

Augusta Chronicle: “Major Geo. A.White head, General Passenger Agent of the Cen tral Railroad Is In tne city. Major White head is deservedly popular all over the State, and is one of the most efficient railroad of ficers in the Union.” The steamer Cumberland, in charge of her well known and popular owner, Captain Wllcc.x, arrived here from Hawkinsvtlle yi-sterday. She will run regularly to this place during the cotton season, but her permanent route has not yet been de termined. The steamship George Appold, which ar rived here Saturday from Baltimore, has been lying up at that port for about two months, during which time she received thorough overhauling throughout. Anew section shaft was put in her and she is now in fine condition for the winter’s business. Saturday afternoon, about five o’clock, two colored men got to skylarking under the bluff near the foot of Lincoln street. One of tbe men had an open knife In hi band and during the scuffle accidentally cat the other, Jim LeLyon, very severely on the right hand. As It was purely an accident there was no arrest. About quarter to ten o’clock Saturday night George Harris, a valiant colored trooper, whose prowess was stirred by copious swallows of mean whisky, made an assault upon a colored female, Lydia Hall, which created quite a disturbance in the street. The brave warrior was captured by Police man O’Keefe and waltzed off to the bar racks, and this morning will have a front seat In the dress circle at the Police Court matinee. A Savannahlan Fatally Injured In Texas. On Saturday, Mrs. Williamson, resid ing in Savannah, wife of Mr. C. Wil liamson, received a letter from her hus band, who is in Texas, conveying the monmful intelligence that be had met with a fatal accident, which would proba bly result In hts death ere his letter was re ceived. Mr. Williamson was formerly an engineer in the employ of the Central Rail road, and later was a clerk In the store of Mr. F. Russak. Some time slDce he went to Texas, bat to what place we are not In formed, and obtained employment as en gineer on one of the railroads. The follow ing is a copy of the letter received by Mrs. Williamson: My Dear Wife and Children I htfve met with an accident on my engine which will cause my death. I am told by the doctor that I am beyond mortal aid; so I am writ ing as a dying man. There is no use of my sending for you, even If I had the means, which I have not, as before you could pos sibly reach here I will be a dead man. I have Instructed the doctor to send you this after my death. May the Lord take care of you all. Your loving husband, C. Williamson. Yesterday Mrs. Williamson received another letter stating that her husband was no’ dead, but the physician was so firmly impressed that he could not survive his in juries tha’ he had mailed her the letter Mr. Williamson had written. The doctor stated that Mr. Williamson wa> on his engine when the reverse lever sprung back, striking him on the side and crashing in his ribs over the heart —that if he llvtd ft would be a miracle and he would be a cripple. Mr. Williamson was very highly esteemed by his fellow employee at the Central Railroad, and has many friends In this city who will hear with re gret of the terrible accident that has befallen him, and will trust that It may not prove so serious as now appears. Disgraceful Street Scenes. The streets yesterday were disgraced by the presence of an unusnallv large number of un'ortunates who drink too freely of “the flowing bowl” on Sunday, and In various parts of the city could be seen men who were unable to navigate with dignity. Whilst these parties may have not been guilty of disorder or of disturbing the peace, yet it cannot be denied that such sights are, on the Sabbath day especially rather andl r credltable to the good fame of the citv. It was evident that the bibulously inclined had no difficulty in indulging their appetites, and if they faded to find an onen front door of a saloon, could readily strike the conve nient back gate. In the eastern section of the city crowds of half soaked colored men could be seen gathered on the cor ners conveniently near to groggeries wbre liquor could be obtained. It would seem from this that the liberal con struction of the ordinance relating to the suppression of the liquor traffic on Sunday has r,o T resulted In decreasing drunkenness, as some has asserted it would. The saloons in this city can be easily closed and the traffic in liquor on Sunday as readily and effectually suppressed as In Macon, Atlanta and other places, and if the present ordi nances are defective new ones should t e enacted and enforced. Personal. The Augusta Evening Newt of Saturday says: “Captain R. G. Fleming, who has been long the popular and courteous Superinten dent of the Port Royal and Augusta Rail way, has resigned hU post, to take effect on the 15th Inst., when be will go to Bavannah and assume the Superir.tendency of the Sa vannah. Florida and Western Railway, or the old Gulf Rdlroad. We congratulate the Captain in his new position, but all in Au gusta will regret hts departure from this point, where he and his family are so highly esteemed. He is one of the best and most jovial railroad men in this country.” A Ntw House. Mr. Julius Hunt has opened an office at 106 Bay street, where he will carry on the commission and rice business. Mr. Hunt has been engaged in this city in another line of trade for about twelve years, and is well known as an active and enterprising gentle man. He solicits the orders of those who want anything in bis line and promises prompt attention to them. Easily Proven.

It repairs the ravages of disease by converting the food into rich blood, and it gives new life and vigor to the aged and infirm always. The Killing of “Sporty Bill”- Far ther Particulars. An account of the killing of Robert Wil liams, alias “Sporty Bill,” near N0.7J4 Cen tral Railroad last week, who had been ar rested for tbe murder of Mr. Patrick Reagan, and attempted to escape, has been given In the MoENrso News. It will be remembered that subsequently Mr. John Montmollln was arrested, charged with the murder, on the ground that the wrong man had been killed. Mr. L. 11. Montmollln who went up to Sylvania with witnesses to identify the body as that of “Sport- Bill,” returned on Saturday night. We have not seen him bHt learn from a re liable source the following particulars of the trip: When Mr. Montmollln arrived at the place he found that the remains of “Sporty Bill” had not been removed to Bouth Carolina, as stated in the dispatch of Justice Basc. and ordinary advanced }{c. on Saturday.

The stern and head gear of the schooner Island City, which were pretty badly dam aged have been repaired, and she has taken a cargo of lumber on board and cleared for Baltimore. The Norwegian bark Condor, Captain Neilsen, was on Saturday cleared for Ant werp by Messrs. A. 8. Helde A Cos. She carried 142 barrels of rosin, weighing 57,425 pounds, valued at $413, and 2,136 casks of gplirits turpentine, measuring 104,- 744 gallons, valued at $52,372. Cargo by Messrs. A. Sprunt Son. Escape of Nine Convicts. Information was received In the city Sat urday that nine convicts, who have been working at the camp of Bondurant, Jopling A Cos., near Augusta, had effected their es cape on the night of Monday last, the 26th of September. The particulars have not yet been learned, and the lessees have evidently been keeping the escape quiet in the hope of apprehending the fugitives. Among the escaped convicts are three who were sentenced from Chatham county, in cluding tbe notorious Beauregard Mack, of this city. All of them are colored. There Is a standiug reward offer ed for the apprehension of escaped convicts, and the enterprising detectives may keep a sharp lookout now for these parties, some of whom are well known to the Bavannah force.
