Smith twice, n ball taking effect in

Smith is not expected to live. McCune
wass arrested, but the excitement
among Smiths friends ran high, and
there was1oud talk of lynching. How

Speaking of the immense railroad traffic
in and out of Omaha. the Bee of that city,
states the following in regard to cattle
freight: Freight shipments are heav-
Ter than ever before. With the single
exception OF grain, the freight bills of
all the roads show a remarkable in
crease. Especially Is this case in the
line of cattle shipments. During Sep
TENDER the three directly eastern roads
to Chicago leading from Council Bluffs,
shipped 1880 car loads of cattle. OF
these the Chicago & Northwestern and
Rock Island roads carried nearly an
equal number. while the c. B. & Q.
line did a slightly heavier business than
either. This crowds these roads to
their utmost capacity. Yesterday the
stock yards at Council Bluffs were full
Of cattle, for which only seventy cars
could be mustered. Most Of the cattle
are from Wyoming territory. This
business will probably continue during
the present month";
The magnitude of Wyoming's cattle
interests does not appear to the casual
observer. 1t is only when n comes
down to a statement Of facts and
figures, that he can form an idea of the
millions Of dollars which are repre-
sented in the herds which I'VE Wyo-
ming grazing lands. The capital repre-
sented by stock dealers in this city is
far out of proportion to the general
appearance Of the city, which is bad by
no means, and would astonish one not
familiar with this peculiarly western
business.

Herne,s "Hearts OF Oak. :"

Notwithstanding the we'll established
fact that circus possesses most wonderful
attractions above everything else for S..
vannah audience, still the Theatre was
crowded last night TO witness Mr.. James A.
Herne, Miss Katharine Corcoran and their
carefully selected company in the above
named play. This attendance was due to
their reputation for excellence and interest
established for this play in this city last year,
and also to the well merited Communications
which It has elected from the press wher-
ever it has been presented this season.
The expectations Of the audience were
not disappointed, and from first to last the
play was thoroughly enjoyed. Mr.. James
A Herne, the suthOr, sustained the charac-
ter Of "Terry DennisOn" admirably, and he
was ably seconded by Messrs. Harry Main
hall aud T. Chippindale-both old favor
ites-ss "Ruby Darrell" and 'OWen Gar
roway," respectively. Miss COrcoran
as ''Chrystal" cher original creatiOn), was
also very effective, while Little Maud
Thompson, Give and CROWN on for
Six" was simply wonderful, completely
captivating the audience. 1.-The Baby"
toO,-a real live specimen OF miniature
humanity-acted her part with fidelity
to nature worthy Of all praise, and the va
riOus minor parts we're sustained to the en-
tire satisfaction Of all present. In brief, no
more delightful entertainment has been
afforded our citizens this season, and the
success achieved by the company is well de-
served. We hope to see "the Hearts OF
Oak" again on our boards at no very dis
tsnt period.

Colonel William NJ Wadley, President OF
the Ocean Steamship Company, during his
recent visit North, sold the steamships Gate
City and City of Columbus to Messrs. +.
Nickerson 81 Co., of the Boston and Savan-
nah Line, and the Directors Of the company,
at their meeting yesterday morning, con-
irmed his action.
These vessels will take their places on
their new route as soon as they can be spared
from the present line between New York
and this city. They will be replaced on
this line by three new iron steamships Of
5000 bales capacity, somewhat Of the build
OF the "City of Augusta" but with i'm
provements in their construction and ma
chlnery which have suggested themselves
since that fine vessel was built. The con
tract for the new steamers has been awarded
and work will be commenced on them at
once.
This purchase by the Boston Line will give
Savannah first class vessels running to all
the principal Northern cities, and make our
merchant mSrine ,even more than at present,
the superior to and the best equipped OF
that OF any other on the South Atlantic
coast.

'sSavannah Day''-A Special Excur-
sion In order.

Wednesday, the 23d inst, has been set
apart by the managers Of the Atlanta Cotton
Exposition as Savannah Day." an act
doubtless intended as compliment to our
city, and to arouse fresh interest in the ex-
hibition among our citizens.
We do not know what is the special pro-
gramme for the day, nor can we tell exactly
what features Of peculiar interest to this
community will be presented, but many OF
our citizens, as well as numerous vlsi-
tors in our midst, will no doubt, be glad
to take advantage Of this occasion to visit
the Exposition.
Now that the Central Railroad has re-
duced its fare for special occasions such as
