quentiy to pass their dividends unpaid. If
Governor Smith was right and the dividends
were paid out OF accumulated profits, they
would not have been paid In scrip, but in
cash. do not know who made money out
of stocks by this transaction. / can very
readily see, though, when 1t comes to pay
ing dividends or interest on the additional
stock or bonds, in time of depression, that
the lambs, as they call them in New York,
will have to bear the burden, not the bulls
or the bears. II the bulls combined with a
view to make dividend on stock, it was a
splendid opportunity to put It up and then
let 1t slide.
"Then again the fact was spoken of that
the Atlanta and West Point Road had de-
clared a dividend of per cent, and also
stock dividend of 100 per cent. on its capt
tai. They have been unwIse enough to do
that, but 1t is nothing on earth but watering
the stock. As long as this boom lasts they
may pay a dividend upon it, but when it
passes away and we come down to the de-
preston again, they cannot pay it. They
will fall back then to where they were be
fore the Commission was appointed, where
they cannot pay at all upon their stock"

Meeting Of the Sovereign Grand
Lodge at Cincinnati To-day.

The Fifty-sixth annual session of the
Sovereign Grand Lodge of l. o. o. F.
will meet in Cincinnati to-day. Odd Fellow
ship is a thoroughly American institution
and firmly established one. Its objects
are to promote friendship among men, with
out regard to nativity or religious belief, to
encourage morality, elevate humanity, and
to deal charitably with all. Slowly and
surely it has grown, and in this country es-
pecially it now ranks with its older sisfer
Freemasonry. Its career has been quiet
and unostentatious, and it has been
remarkably free from contentious,
while in the political field its
name has been unknown. It's iurisdic-
Lodges-the Sovereign, which meets in
Cincinnati to-day; the Grand Lodge of the
German Empire, and the Grand Lodge of
Australasia. There are ffty-eight State,
Territorial, District and Colonial Grand
Lodges, and forty Grand Encampments,
1851 Subordinate Encampments and 1876
Subordinate Lodges.
The Sovereign Grand Lodge will be re-
ceived by the city, and by the Grand Lodge
of Ohio, which will be convened for that
purpose at the Gas Company hall, at Q:30 q.
m, when the formal opening Of the Grand
body will be ina1gurated. 1t may be peril
nent to announce to host of Odd Fellows
that the Sovereign Grand Lodge ''works" in
the Royal Purple degree, and that Past
Grands Of all States may be introduced by
their respective neutrality-suspicious.,
OF course, they possess the required qualif-
cations.
Tomorrow has been selected for the
grand procession, the details of which
are here partially given, at the close of
which the splendid monument in Spring
Grove will be unveiled and officially dedi-
Gated. The procession will, from present
indications, be one worthy of the vast
brotherhood OF the Cripple links" and an
opportunity will be afforded to render re-
spect and honor to many who have grown
old in the service, and whose names are in
delibly connected with the mighty work of
the Order Of Friendship. Love and Truth.
Mr.. T. A. Askew, of Savannah, Past Grand
Master of the Grand Lodge, as has been
stated, left Saturday for Cincinnati as
representative to the Sovereign Grand
Lodge.

The Savannah Military and the
Yorktown Centennial

Saturday afternoon circular letters were
received by the various officers of our mill
tary from Col. A Pope, Chief of the Trans
portation Committee, stating that companies
would be carried by rail to Yorktown from
Savannah at the low price of seventeen dol
lars for the round trip. The
further proposition was made to carry the
guns, carriages and caissons of the
Chatham Artillery free. 1t is understood
that quite number of the members of the
other military companies will go. The
Galatians have a meeting this evening
to decide whether they will go by the Balti-
more steamship or by rail. We understand
the steamer is favored, but there is some
uncertainty about arrangements being made
for the steamer to leave here IN time for the
company to reach Yorktown early on the
morning of the 18th, In order to participate
in the opening ceremonies. II this can be
done they will most probably go by steamer.

A Serious Accident.

On Friday night about 10 O'Clock Mr..
James Clancy, fireman on the Central
Railroad pusher Ktna, had very narrow es-
cape from being killed while in the discharge
of bis duty. The accident occurred in the
following manner The pusher was stand
ing on the canal bridge, as 1t is termed,
when the noise Of another pusher approach
ing was heard. Mr.. Clancy thinking that the
pusher might be coming on the same track,
got off his engine to hunt for the switch
with the view of turning it, remarking
at the time to the engineer, to look out,
"she is upon u.s." Whilst walking towards
the switch, he made a misstep in the dark
and fell from the top of the bridge to the
road below, distance of thirty feet. He
struck upon his head, splitting his cap open
and sustaining very painful and severe in
juries about the neck and spine, though
strange to cay no bones were broken. He
was conveyed to his hOmse, when DIR. T. B.
Chisholm was summoned, and rendered
proper attention. His Injuries are con-
sidered serious and severe, but not fatal
We understand that Mr.. Clancy has been
hurt on two other occasions, and is very ap-
prehensive at the least indication of danger
The sequel shows that there was no danger
Of collision, and no necessity of his
leaving the engine. He is q very worthy
and industrious young man, and is well
esteemed by all who know him, and has
great sympathy in this misfortune.

Saturday morning, about O'Clock, a
colored girl nine years of age, whilst walk
ing along the Georgia and Florida steam
boat wharf, fell down the slip and rolled
into the water. The tide was very high at
the time, and Mr.. Frank Dobson, who wit
messed the accident, rushed forward and
STOPPING down made grab for the child as
Mr.. James E. Chase fastened to his assist
snce, and she was pulled out safely. She
was terribly frightened by her unexpected
ducking, but otherwise experienced no Sc
rious effects

of the Southern Furniture House, where

The Sunday Law Carried to An

We learn that certain parties are getting
up a petition to have the Park gates locked
on Sundays, so as to give the hinges one
days rest out of seven. Now, those parties
are undoubtedly "biious," and if they
would take Kieffer's Peruvian Cure, accord
ing to directions, they would soon get over
their midsnlati0 difficulties. They can find
It at any drug or country store. The pro-
prietor warrants its efficacy, and 1t only
costs rs cents bottle. Why suffer, gem
tlemen, with cbills and fever, when you can
be cured for quarter ?--AdV.

a Shooting ARRAY on BrOughtOn
Street.

Saturday night about eleven o'clock the
neighborhood of Broughton and Barnard
streets was aroused by the reports Of pis-
toll, and notwithstanding the late hour, a
crowd of persons hocked from various di-
rections to the locality from whence the
reports sounded, to ascertain the cause. 1t
appears from what could be learned that
difficulty occurred between two parties
in a bsrroom, and an adjournment was had
to the street for settlement. One of the
men was knocked down and was very badly
pummeled, but finally managed to get loose
from his antagonist, and drawing his pistol,
fired two barrels, causing the party fred at
to retreat precipitatelY. The Individual
who fired the pistol was arrested and carried
to the barracks, and at the matinee to-day
will give full exclamation of the affair

MISSING BARK.
Supposed to Have Been Sunk In the
Gale.

We are informed that considerable sppre-
hension is experienced in Beaufort, s C.,
concerning the fate OF Mr. George Harms,
a very excellent young man and pilot on
Port Royal bar. On Friday evening pre-
ceding the late terrific storm, he boarded
the Swedish bark Java, bound for Ball
river to load phosphate rock. He headed
the vessel for port, but q blow COM
ing on it is supposed be
about ship and made for
open water. The following day the disas-
trous hurricane swept the coast, and roth
ing further has been heard from the bark
other than the statement OF Capt. Colts,
OF the British bark Rea. We learn that
Capt. Colts reported that on the night OF
the gale he collided with what appeared to
him to be a Swedish bark, snd that she
sank Immediately. 1t is feared this was
the Java, and that all on board were lost, as
there is no news of her arrival at any port,
or OF having since been seen. The Java was
commanded by Capt Anderson and left
GreenOck July 9Th for Bull river.

that the StOddard will be retired from the
