rhe AbseondIng Hotel CIerk.

Information was received in the city yes
terds7 concerning the clerk of the Harnett
House, who suddenly disappeared from this
city on Sunday night with five hundred dol
lars belonging to Mr.. T. Q. Fleming, of Lib
erty county, an account Of which appeared
in the MORNING News Of yesterday. As
stated, he left in company with a friend by
the name OF Walsh. On Tuesday both
Young men were seen in Charleston, and it
is now ssceTtaiued that they left as "stoT-
aWavsn on the steamship SSntO Domingo,
which sailed from Charleston for New
York on Wednesday afternoon az tao
O'Clock. The steamer is due In New York
this evening or early tomorrow, snd as the
authorities there have been telegrsphed It
is supposed the young men will be arrested
on sTrfVal there and returned to Savannah.
A letter, dated Charleston, February =, was
received from Walsh Yesterday morning by
the BrOughton street dry goods firm where
he had been employed for few day., request-
ing that tie amount due on his salary for
seven dsys be forwarded him at Erie, Pa,
whittier he was going. Walsh apologize I'd
for his sudden disappearance, and said that
the cause OF his action was the meeting with
his cousin, who promised him a good situa-
tiOn II he would return North with him.
No importance Is attached to this letter,
however, and It is believed # was written by
Walsh simply as a blind, and to create the
impression that he not had gone of with
the hotel clerk.

The Proper Course 10 Pursue-GO
Before the Grand Jury.

Judge Tompkins has lately received some
anonymous letters calling his attention to
the fact that several persons are still
engaged IN carrying on gambling
and selling liquor on Sunday. All
these letters are turned over TO
Solicitor General Charlton, with instruc-
tIons to bring the matter before the grand
jury. The Judge is powerless TO do any
thing unless the grand Jury shall first find
the true bills. And II the writers of these
letters have the courage to 60 before the
grand jury with their complaints the court
can then be put in condition to punish the
offenders.
There have been for some time past Iu-
merous reports current on the streets
to the same effect, and surprise has
been expressed that something has
not been said on the subject. Inquiry
into the matter, however, developed
the existence Of an impression that it was
the duty Of the Judge or Solicitor General to
institute proceedings against the parties
guilty Of such violation. These charges
were of 8 too general character to be pub
licly noticed, and, as we have stated above,
tee only way in which any proceedings can
be taken is for those Who know Of such
cases to go before the grand jury and
make their statements, when, II the evil
dence is sufficient, the offenders will be
presented and brought before the court for
trial. The Solicitor General will render
every assistance he can in the matter.

Sudden Rereavsment.

Yesterday morning Mr.. II. E. Hutchins,
an operator in the Western Union Telegraph
Office, received a letter from Townsville
announcing that his wife was slightly Ill.,.
He made preparation for leaving on the
afternoon train to see her, when Just
previous to his anticipated departure,
whilst sitting at his instrument IN
the Office, he received over the
the wires q dispatch announcing her
death. The sad news OF his bereave.
ment, received under such circumstances,
was terrible shock to Mr.. Hutchins, as
from the tenor Of the letter he had no rea-
son 70 anticipate that her condition was so
serious. Mrs. Hutcbins was a Miss Everett
OF Thomssyille, and very estimable lady.
The sf1 cted husband has the sincere SYM
psthies Of numerous friends in the commu-
nity IL his great loss.

The Entertainment at the Theatre
nfstTfbutio0 Of Valuable Prfzee

VI
Last evening Professor Zera Semon, ma
gicIan and ventriloquist, commenced an
engagement st the Savannah Theatre Of one
week, and was greeted by fair audience.
The entertainment ranked with the very
best Of it's character ever given in this city,
and gave universal satisfaction, the audi
ence frequently testifying their appreciation
by applause.
A great variety of feats Of legerdemaiu
were given, many new and wonderful, and
all, with, perhaps, the wine trick, executed
with skill and defines. AS 8 ventrilOQuist
We think Prof. Semon the superior OF any
who has ever appeared in Savannah, snd
The equal Of any we have ever seen. His
talking hand is 8 marvel, and is really the
gem Of his ventriloquisi entertainment.
At the close Of the exhibition there was
a distribution of presents and this coca
stoned considerable amusement and was
watched with interest. 1t is really surpris-
ing to note the number and excellence Of
the presents thus given away, and were Il
not for the fact that Prof. SemoR knows his
business better than we do, we might say
this distribution was attended with great
loss TO him. There were four valuable or
leading prizes awarded and we're drawn as
follows:

The following decision, rendered by the
Supreme Court, is of interest at present:
Dohme VS.. the State. Keeping a gaming
house-from City Court of Atlanta.
JACKSON, G. ].
l. It is not necessary in an indictment for
renting house for the purpose OF gaming
to otherwise describe the house than to give
It's locality; that It is in the county.
2 Where there are two counts IN an in
dictment, one for keeping = gaming house
and another for renting house for the pur-
pose Of gaming, general verdict of guilty
will suffice, especially as the punishment is
the same for each offense. Judgment
affirmed.
