Two Types of Humanity.

Editor Morning Ne,Us: The MORNING
NEWS of yesterday contained a notice Of
the recent demise of Delmonico, Of New
York, who left to his widow and relatives
the enormous sum Of one million six
hundred thousand dollars, and not one
dollar to the charities Of the city Of New
York, where this vast fortune was amassed.
Delmonico, If remember right, came to
New York from France when young. He
commenced life like others of his class, at
the lowest round of the financial ladder,
and by long life of close savings, and no
doubt steep prices for his wares, or viands,
became a millionaire, in which capacity he
died. The question arises: to whom did
this vast sum of money belong? In one
sense it belonged to him by actual posses
sion, but originally it belonged to the peo-
pie Of New York, upon whose liberal pat
ronage he grew rich, and who certainly de-
served to be remembered in his will. Yet
in the face of their every claim, which
humanity and gratitude, ii not restitution,
demanded, he wrapped himself in the man
tie OF his selhshness, and, as far as l am
aware, left them not one cent.
Compare his conduct with that Of his IL
lustrious contemporaries, Peabody and
Cooper, of New York city, and of Mills,
Hodgson, Padelford, Kelly and others Of
Savannah, and note the vast chasm that d.
vides these two types Of humanity.

Trne Canse for Resref.

1t makes the heart of every philanthropist
sad to see so many worthless patent medi-
cines pulled and advertised for the cure Of
chronic diseases. Usually the remedy is
some vile cathartic compound or alcoholic
preparation, combined with buchu, turpen-
tine, or other severe diuretic that affords
the invalid only temporary relief, but which
has no lasting effect, and in truth eventual
ly brings on a complication Of diseases arls-
ing from a state Of wornout and exhausted
digestive and urinary organs that nothing
but death can relieve. Invalids should trust
more to nature for their recovery. A gentle
medicinal tonic that stimulates enfeebled
digestion and strengthens every part of the
system by its soothing and refreshing effect
on both mind and body, is NATURES truest
and best assistant. such a remedy is
Browns Iron Bitters, a medicine unsurpass-
ing the sale of all other remedies whenever
its merits become known, for 1t acts in such
perfect harmony with the laws Of life and

nently cured by its timely use. 1t contains

HaverIy,s Big Forty.

Haverly's New Mastodon Minstrels will
commence a two nights engagement at
the Theatre, Friday evening. Although
this is the first appearance Of this company
in our city their fame as a monster organi-
cation has preceded them. We are heartily
glad Mr.. Haverly has brought minstrelsy
up to the plane with other American
amusements, and our many readers may
rest assured that the entertainment given
by Haverly's Big Forty is refined and gen.
teel to the letter. The Norfolk (Vs.) Kr-
ginian says:
"This troupe gave an immense perform
ance last night at the Grand. The crowd
blockaded the entrance long before the
opening hour. Every foot of standing
room was taken and many turned away.
The performance is what is promised,
something new and it was also Some
thing better The new company was pro-
nounced the boss one by all who heard It.
Haverlyis new enterprise is surely one Of
his greatest. 1t is impossible to speak in
detail of the many merits Of the perform
ance ~

The Sunday Night TragedV-NO Clue
IN the AaaaaaIn.

The Coroner's inquest into the killing Of
the colored man Isaac Keeoler, full parti-
culars of which have appeared in the NEWS,
resulted in no new developments, and the
assassin remains undiscovered. A large
number of witnesses were examined, but no
information of importance was CLEANED. 1t
will be remembered that the negro
David Roberts, who surrendered him
self at the barracks, was believed
to be implicated in the murder, but the evil
dence failed to sustain the allegation, and
the jury so decided IN their verdict, where
upon Roberts was discharged. The verdict
was, that Keebler had come to his death by
a gun-shot wound, inflicted by some one
unknown to the jury, but in view of the
suspicious it was recommended that the
mulatto woman, Anna WyllY, who had
been living with Keebler, and about whom
It was alleged the trouble occurred, should
be held as q witness, to await developments,
and she was committed to await further &C

AS stated yesterday, the Chatham Artil-

Centennial by rail. There are three routes
offered, but it is understood that they
will take the Charleston, Wilmington,
Weldon and Richmond route, which
is the quickest time, being only twenty
five hours from Savannah to Richmond,
and to Yorktown is about two hours fur
Their. The company can leave here on Sat-
urday night at 7:30 by the Augusta, Char
lotte, Danville aud Richmond line, and reach
Richmond at o'clock on Monday morning,
or they can leave via Charleston, Whining
ton and Weldon at 1886 p. m. Saturday and
reach Richmond at 4:3S p. m. on Sunday, or

the latter route will be taken. Quite q
number of citizens propose going at the

railroad bridge, among which were
hundreds OF negro women, who
as usual were blatant and
violent, began to slowly disperse. Many Of

six miles out on the road, and have been in
the habit of coming into the CITY every day
to work. They are more inclined to riOting
than those who live in the city, but after =

in the neighbOrhOOd, though Fahm and In
