The wesley NTemorIaI voIuna.

Like many who were perfectly fascinated
by the Sabbath night lecture Of DIR. Clarke,
! wanted to see the book. To say that the
goods In bulk equal the sample is to say
great deal, but not too much. I am famil-
lar with subscription books, and made one
That sold six thousand OF, and I never
saw one better made, and never one so
wonderful In matter or more able In man
ner. That the city proud of Oglethorpe,
Greene and Pulaski has even.more cause for
pride in that here Wesley had his only
parish narrower than "the world, -
Is a fact that few of us have
realized. And yet 1t is true that
he made our sands hallowed by his
tread, as II Luther or Paul had walked
here. To review the book honestly, would
be to quote it, and such review can be had,
with all the pictures and auto-lithographs,
In the book itself for only FIVE dollars. One
gentleman OF this city has paid thousand
for his copy. Meeting DIR. Clarke after the
lecture, he subscribed for two hundred cop
les, and gave thousand dollars. One hun
dred he is to give to the poor and the ap-
preciative, and the other humid ed DR..
Clarke is to SO distribute. The compliment
has no precedent so far as I know, and yet
It is not so much to DIR. Clarke, nor yet to
John Wesley, as to HIM they love. The
music of Charles Wesley has q noble place.

The Lecture on "Wesley and Meth
Odism0


Odism.''
The lecture OF Rev. j. .. A. Clarke, D. D.,
on "Wesley and Methodism," delivered in
Trinity Church on Sunday night last, at
tracted large and interested audience, rep
resenting all the evangelical churches, and
was literary and religious treat such as is
rarely enjoyed by any community. The SUBJ
ject itself was deeply interesting, the sur
roundings altogether, favorable, and the
time and place notably appropriate, while
the literary character Of the lecture was of
such high order of excellence as to merit
the most favorable criticism.
The enthusissmIwith which DIR. Clarke por-
trayed the lofty genius, the Christlil,e sBsrt
and the wonderful achievements the
great founder of Methodism, Wa soon
caught by the vast audience, and wit ai
they reached the conclusion that nc III 40
since st. Paul has left so deep an i'm
upon the thought and principles and &C 0ns
Of humanity. The lecture was charat
lied by that catholiclty of spirit which pre-
eminently distinguished Mr.. Wesley, a.
while it justified all the claims that have
been put forth as to the glorious issues 1.
the Methodistic revival and reformation, 1t
was not marred by single uncharitable or
sectarian expression.
The tributes which the foremost writer's
Of the old and new world have paid to the
character and genius of Wesley, with the
eulogies upon this great man, which the
truth of history has forced even skeptical
historians to record, were most tklllfully
used by the accomplished lecturer, and
showed conclusively that Robert Southey
was right in considering Mr.. Wesley ssthe
most influential mind of the last century,"
The place where this lecture was deliver
ed gave the lecturer occasion for some of
its finest passages. Here, in Savannah,
where was Mr.. Wesley's only parish; where,
as he himself says, ''the first rudiments of
the Methodist societies" originated, and
where the beautiful Monumental Church,
which the religious people of the world are
uniting to erect to his memory, here is the
most appropriate Of all places to give utter
ance to the judgment of the gifted minds
who appreciate the true greatness of this
servant Of God, and the effectiveness of that
system which he organized for spreading
ecriptural holiness" over tie whole earth.
The lecture made such an impression up
on one Of the audience, gentleman who is
known as foremost In every good work,
that he subscribed for two hundred cop es
($1, 900 WORTH, of the ''Wesley Memorial
Volume" edited by DIR. Clarke, for distrI-
button among those who are not able to buy
1t themselves. Tue proceeds of this vol
ume, which the press, both OF England and
America, unite in commenting as one of
the most valuable contributions to the re-
hgious literature of the age, are devoted to
the completion of Wesley Monumental
Church, In Savannah, and all our readers
will do well to procure copy for them
selves.

a had parkey-He Threatens 20 Out
Policeman.


About eight o'clock last night Policeman
Jones, whilst patrolling his beat at the Park,
observed colored man meandering along
Qrayton street, near Bolton, toting a bag,
apparently well filed. Suspecting that the
individual, from his movements, was not
exactly all right, he approached him and
incurred what he had. The fellow replied
that he had some potatoes, but seemed so
anxious to get beyond the observation of
the policeman that the vigilant guardian Of
the peace followed him up. As he came
near him. the colored traveller finding him
self brought to bay. turned savagely towards
the officer and threatened to cut him up II
be1aid his hand on him. By this time Po-
Tceman Sones was close enough to secure
him. when he found that the baglcontained
NOT potatoes, but cotton, which it Is sup
nosed had been stolen from the cotton In
he park extension. The prisoner was car,
ried to the barracks, where he was registered
nnSer the name of John Brown, and this
morning will be brought into the Police
Court for examination.

"Slmmons' Liver Regulator is certainly g
specific for that class Of complains which IL
claims to cure. OF its beneficial effects we
do know something; and, from personal ex-
periments, It is our opinion that its virtues
have not been exaggerated by the many
hattering notices of the press. II any Of our
fellow beings are suffering from hepatic
disorders, and have doubts In relation to the
efficacy of this popular preparation we can
only offer them the simple and candid argu-
ment OF Philip to Nathaniel, Come and
see.' Try the proposed remedy, and then
you can judge for yourselves.

mentary Action.
1t will be remembered that on the occa-
sion of the recent anniversary of the Savan-
nah Port Society, Rev. DIR. Sylvanus Lam
drum delivered the address. In our notice
of the exercises we referred to his address
as remarkable for its ability, eloquence and
force, and ventured the opinion that 1t had
made deep impression. The following
copy of letter from the Corresponding
Secretary Of the Port Society to DR.. Lam
drum shows the estimation placed upon it
by the society. The Acknowledgement of
the indebtedness of the society In the
premises is couched in deserved and beauti-
full complimentary terms. The letter is as
follows:
OFFICE OF SAVANNAH PORT SOCIETY,
SAVANNAH, February IS, 1881.
ReU DR.. s. Ld1tdTsol
MY DEAR SIR-The Savannah Port So
ciety, gratefully approaching your sermon at
its late anniversary meeting, and believing
that your faithful presentation OF the claims
of the sailor viii win favor for the society,
has instructed me to address you this letter,
and to express to you the thanks of its
officers and members.
The Port Society has always regarded you
as one of its warmest friends, and 1t takes
pleasure in acknowledging your uniform
interest and good will In its behalf. More
than once has its annual meeting been held
in your church, and on each occasion It has
shared your counsel and sympathy. We
have heard, within a few days, of your in
tended removal from Savannah, and we
shall sincerely regret your departure. To
us it will be pleasant remembrance of you,
that your last professional service In this
city, outside Of your own parochial work,
was to commend the care OF the sailor, In
his religious and social needs, to the Port
Society and its friends, on the 9th inst, in
SO generous spirit, and in a sermon SO
impressive and instructive. We cannot
doubt that 1t will do the society great good.
While we lament, my dear sir, your leay-
ing Savannah, where you have done so
much good, we trust that 1t will take you to
a wider field of influence and to a more
pleasant line of duty in the new situation
you are invited to occupy. We thank you
as the friend of seamen, whose welfare we
are organized to promote, and we cordially
wish for you every blessing.
am, reverend and dear sir, yours very
respectfully and truly,

Caught with a bag Of Canned To-
matOea,

As Policeman Mock was patrolllng River
street, in the vicinity of Montgomery, he
encountered a negro ambling along with
bag on his shoulder, the weight Of which
evidently distressed him. He was endeav-
oring to keep on the dark side Of
the street, which aroused the suspi-
cions of the officer, who took him
in charge. An examination showed that
the bag was filled with canned tomatoes.
Il is supposed the negro, whose name Is
Jack Graham, had stolen q box Of the
canned goods from one OF the wharves,
carried it into q dark corner, broken 1t open,
aud was carrying off the cans In the bag.
He will, however, be granted an Opportu-
nifty to-day to explain the matter.
