Gallant Action.

The New York correspondent of the
Savannah Advertiser writes:
81 ain informed Of gallant act
performed in mid ocean by Captain
Berry, of tho steamship Charleston,
which plies between the port by that
name nDd this city. While ho was
standing on the promenade deck lit.
tie child in the arms of its nurse
either sprang or fell ovctborurd. As
quick AZ thought tho uoblc fellow fol-
lowed, and almost before tho little
one touched tho water he had the
child in his arms and safe. Being
an exccllont swimmer, he sustained
himself until the steamer was stopped
and boats came to the rescue"
Such an act Of gallantry is nothing
more than the friends Of Captain
Berry would expect. Nevertheless
the act is one whose parallel we do
not remember as being Of record an
old salt, pnst the meridian of life, his
head bcsprlnkled with the frost of age,
lenps from the deck Of tho ship he
commands, in mid ocean, and saves q
mother's infant darling. All honor
to the commodore's chlvalry.

The Macon Telegraph Of Thursday
contains m account Of Wholesale
arrest of the forgcrs TO WHOM allusion
was recently made. The man ro.
ported as captured in Richmond was
one Of the party. Another, named
Bennett, was arrested in Macon on
Tuesday, and still another, mined
Morris, on Wednesday. A fourth of
the party was gobbled up in Mont.
gomcry, Ala, on the samo day.
These scouudrels have been operating
largely, chiefly through forged Ger.
tifioates Of depo sit purporting to have
been issued by New York banks,
with which they have swindled n
number Of banks. Tho Merchants
National, Of that city, paid one for
several thousand, and tho Central
Agency at Macon was taken in to
the amount Of $4,000. No doubt
many other successes have attended
their operations, but they have moi

Republicans for Greeley,

The Enquirer wants to know tho
strength Of Mr.. Greoley among Re-
Publioans. We quote from tho Utica
IN. W Observer
"Tho Republican feeling in favor of
Greeley is not stronger, but it 10
more freeley expressed, in the coun.
try than in the city. From hundred
sources VIC have learned during tho
past threo weeks that in the villages
and farming districts of central New
York scores Of men who have been
steady supporters of the Republican
Administration heretofore-mcn who
took no interest in tho Liberal move
ment when it was inaugurated-are
now open in their advocacy Of Greo-
ley. These citizens could not by any
stretch Of the Imagination be convert

heads" They are tho thoughtful,
hard working class, with no other
ambition than to contribute their
share towards sustaining and securing

who honor scholarship. At Amberst's

Tho SOuih.

Gradually, the eyes of North are be.
ing opened to tho true condition Of the
South. The visit Of Mr.. Greeley to
Texas is likely to bear good fruit. u
raveling through the South err
States, the, editor Of the Tab,
r,ibuuo s.w bow the people wore rob.
bed in the name, Of the great Republi
can party, aud he had the co rage "a
ienounce tho robbery. Other men OF
influence in t,o North wcre induced
TO look at the etqu ,stion with impartial
eyes, and the more they looked, the
moro they wers astounded at tho
misgovernment Of the South. The
Nation, q Republican journal, want,
to know what ses vice the carpet-bag
gers "have rendered the country,
that we should grant them the mo-
nopoly Of robbing tho rebels" The
question is as pertinent as it is diff
cult to answer. The Rev. Henry
Ward Beechar now comes to the front
with an earnest plea for the South.
In the last number of the Christian
Uaion, he roviews the whole matter
ably and dispassionately. He points
out how the South was exhau usted by
the war, how it yielded as man
drops from exhaustion. On the heel
If financial ruin, trod q total disar-
rangement of the system of labor.
The Immediate consequence was to
greatly paralyzs tho industry Of the
whole section. Then oatre a failure
of crop after crop, and the Southern
people were poor Indeed. But this
was not all. The browning burden
was misgovcrnnlent. The State
governments fell into the hands OF
"ignorant aud kuavish men" Public
money has been wasted and stolen,
aud proud aud spirited population
have seen their places of trust and
honor fi;led by foreign aadvonturers
aud uueducated froedpeu."
When men likoa Mr.. Greeley and
Mr.. Beecher earnestly demand a
change III the government Of tho
S 'uthern States. surely de!iverance is
cluse at hand, for no two men are
moro trusted and respected by tho
Northern people at large. The
Southern people have stood up nobl =
under the heavy burdens imposed
upon them, and they have proved
themselves worthy Of tho high honors
of American citizenship. Though
crushed as proud people have seldom
been crushed, they have not folded
their hands and q liotly drlfted out
upon the black ocean of despair
they have worked with energy, and
heapcd up spoil for tho pluudercrs
