The Democratic Ticket Nominated
as RHAe Theatre

SAVANNAH, January 11.--Editof Morning
NeSos: Allow me space In your paper for a
short communication in commentator of
the ticket nominated at the mass meeting
at the Theatre on Friday last, and which is
headed by our esteemed fellow citizen. Mr..
d. G. Purse, for Mayor.
1t seems to me that this ticket should IN
hesitatingly commend itself to our people,
whether they view it as Democrats or as
citizens. 1t is commendable TO Democrats
because it was placed in the field by mass
meeting of citizens, called for the purpose
of nominating candidates for Mayor and
Aldermen, by the Democratic Executive
Committee. It is presented to the public,
therefore, bearing the sign and seal
OF the Democratic party, and, as such,
should undoubtedly receive Democratic
support. 1t is commendable to citizens, be-
cause Mr.. PURSES career as Chairman of the
Finance Committee of our City Council
during the past four years has been devoted
to advancing the welfare of the people of
Savannah. When he entered Coun-
ell he found the city burdened
to the earth with debt, and
with gloomy financial future before her.
alone, he devised and perfected the Just,
liberal and equitable compromise with her
creditors, which they unhesitatingl " adopted,
the good effects Of which she now ebiDys,
and which has placed her on such sure
ground that her financial condition is, at
this time, second to that Of no other city in
the country. And all this good was SC
complished, be it remembered, without
repudiating one dollar Of her debt.
Should Mr.. Purse be elected Mayor on
Tuesday next he will continue to devote his
time and talents 10 that capacity AS earnestly
to promoting the welfare of Savannah, as he
has done in the past In the capacity OF
Alderman. His ability his worst enemy
cannot deny, and his ambition will be to
maintain the credit of the city unimpeach-
able, and to give us an administration alike
beneficial to our people and honorable TO
himself.
ONE VINO KEEPS HIS Own TICKET.

For some time past there has been sYs-
tenn OF petty stealing carried on along the
river front, and scarcely vessel that has not
sustained some loss. The steamships particu-
larry have suffered from these petty thieves,
and they have managed generally to escape.
Occasionally, however, the rascals are cap
tured, and we have now to record such a
case. On the 10Th of December last the
quartermaster of the William Lawrence
of the Baltimore line. discovered one of the
negro hands named Cyrus Greene, employed
In loading the ship, in the act of drawing
off some liquor from barrel. Cyrus, fad
ing he was caught In his little game, disap-
pesred from the vessel with his liquid spoils
and did not return to work The quarter,
master reported the case to the agents, and
a warrant was issued Ivy Magistrate Molina,
charging him with larceny from the vessel.
He succeeded, however, in keeping out of
the way until yesterday morning, when he
was arrested by Deputy Sheriff Hall, color
ed, and, in default of bail, was committed
to iaii

A Transp Sent TO Cuyler swamp.
Yesterday afternoon, in the City Court,
J.. A. Lingou was convicted Of larceny from
the house and was sentenced to serve four
months ia the chain gang aud will shortly
be sent to join the boys in Cuyler Swamp.
This is the individual who few days since
entered the Office of Messrs. Garrard d
Meldrim to solicit aims, telling a
pitiful story about his travels in
search Of work. Something was given him,
aud he showed his gratitude, as he was re-
firing, by carrying eff an overcoat belong
ing to one of the firm, which contained
some papers and bunch OF keys. Before
this loss was discovered, however, the fell
low had the impudence to send an order
signed Frank Golden, Columbus, to the firm
for a loan, but the fraud was detected.
Constable Wetherhorn was put upon the
track of the sharper and he was arrested,
and Yesterday was brought to trial with the
result stated.

=. Another very laFge~and fashionable au-
dienee filed the theatre last evening, to witt.
ness the second presentation Of "The Bank
er's Daughter" which met with so much IA
vor the precedingeYening. In our notice yes
terday, we confned our remarks entirely to
criticism Of the acting, and the perform
ance last night only confirms US In the COM
mendation then given. The Bankers
Daughter, in fact, is one Of those
pieces which holds its own against time aud
opposition equally; and its career Of success
has been unbroken since its first production,
at the Union Square Theatre, two years
since. Its story-healthy, strong and most
probable-concerus itself with the lives of
natural people, of real flesh and blood, who
move in the higher walks OF life, here and
in Europe. A marriage for money with
John Strebelow" (Mr. Bangs) leaves
''Lillian," the Bankers Daughter miss
Anna Boyle, still devoted to her early lover,
Harold R0utledge" CA. 81. STUART;
having gained her consent, to save her
father from ruin. "Count de Carojac" (Sig-
nor Maieronf), an old lover of the heroine,
meets the Strebelows In Paris. Routledge
has just won fame by picture, the model
OF which Is his memory Of "Lilllan.n The
count forces quarrel at ball at the
American Embassy; kills the young Ameri-
can In duel, and proclaims that he has
done so to save the lady's name. Strebelow
denounces the Count, but demands separa-
ton from his wife; and the final act lis occu-
pied in very natural and equally beautiful
reconciliation, brought about by the child
Of the pair; played, at different ages, by
two remarkably clever children.
The fun of the play-and there is plenty
Of it's given by ''Mrs. Brown (Mrs.
Charles Walcot) and &c. Washington
Phipps" Charles Walcot), two of the clev-
crest comedy performers now seen on
the stage. These two players are artists in
the best sense of that much abused word,
and their high reputation In the great cities
Of the country ia well sustained. The
other characters were fully up In their parts,
and the entire performance was given in
manner most enjoyable to the intelligent
and appreciatiVe audience.
It Will be repeated this afternoon, and to-
night the company will bid farewell. AS
strong, effective play, it is considered by
many superior to Hazel Kirke,n which
has had such an unprecedented rHn IN this
country.
