Scarcity OFFICE,

The loss Of the large quantity Of rice de-
stroyed by the hurricane in August last is
now commencing to be seriously felt in this
market. The demsnd has been active dur
ing the last two weeks, both local and from
the North and West, but many orders could
not be filed owing to the want
Of stock, and there is not enough
of this article now here to meet
the local demand till the new crop comes in,
not to speak Of outside orders. The loss
in Carolina has been much greater than IN
this State, the shortage being 800, GOO
bushels, aud the entire stock OF milled and
unmilled rice in that State Is only about s.
600 tierces TO meet the wants Of consumers
for the next five months, consequently much
higher prices will likely be reached unless
the foreign article should be brought here
in large quantities.

"Ihe TOurIsts''-Fun and FrOlic.
The Tourists In a Pullman Palace Car,
well known mirth provoking entertain
ment under the management Of John P.
Smith, who visited Savannah some years
ago with Artemus Ward, will appear for
the frs. time at the Savannah Theatre on
Wednesday evening, the 10Th inst. In
speaking Of this entertainment the New
Orleans Picaytsne of the 18th inst. says:
"W. A. Messenger, the jolly genius of
comedy, appeared at the Academy of Music
last night, surrounded by jolly company,
IN the entertainment called the Tourists in
the Pull nan Car" for want of better name
for something that is not an opera, comedy,
burlesque, tragedy. or anything else in par
ticular, and which hiss one act in camp on
the Catskill Mountain, and another act
somewhere else on the road. The idea Of
the Tourists is to make as much fun for a
dollar as any one person can take during an
evening. The Tourists, in short, present
the best organization OF the kind that has
ever been seen here. It captured the audi
ence last night, and went well throughout"
The sale Of reserved seats will be opened
at Bren's ticket office this morning at half
past eight O'Clock.

"Dixie." who was the larger man of the
