Such were the laws of Kentucky when, in
June, 1850, Mr.. Blaine says he had what L
know was in my native State of Pennsyl-
vania a perfectly legal form of marriage"
Does Mr.. Blaine mean to say that in Penn
sylvania no minister, priest or officer of law
is requisite to the performance of
marriage? Who was the minister, priest
or Justice of the Peace at George
town to subject himself to fine, imprison-
ment or penitentiary by, without license,
performing the ceremony for him? Was
there any person authorized to solemnize
marriage who would not have told Mr.. Blaine
(supposIng the brilliant Major and learned
Professor to have been ignorant Of it) that
marriage without a license was, db initiO
void? But is it not doing violence to Mr..
Blaine's acknowledged intelligence, even
from boyhood, 10 suppose that he was unin-
formed on so simple proposition that either
license, minister or al officer was essen
tial to legal matrimony? A well-bred man,
q college graduate, the guest of the home of
the head of the Institute in which he himself
was tutor, associating with lawyers and court
officers, q reader Of books and newspapers,

Business Men and Citizens TO Appear
mittee To-Day.
Every indication points to the fact that
the steam whistle nuisance must go. The
business men along Bay street, and the
many private citizens who ara annoyed
nv the sbrill shrieks of the whistles at all
hours of the day and night, do not pro-
nose 10 let the matter rest until relief has
been secured. The lengthy petition which
went into Council two meetings ago, and
was referred TO the Committee on Health
and Cemetery, has not been reported

Yesterday invited all friends OF the move
ment to meet the Mayor and the commit
tee at the Mayors Office at 5 O'Clock this
afternoon. A full hearing will then be
giveu to the gentlemen, and the question
will be thoroughly discussed.
There has been some slight abatement
in the nuisance so far as the steamboats,
and railroads are concerned. but the cot

CHRIST CHURCH vEsTRY ROOM,

SAVANNAH, GA, Dec. Is, 1884.
At special meeting Of the Watdens and
Vestrymen OF this Church. held on Sunday
morning, Dec. Z, the following preamble and
resolutions were unanimously adopted:
WHEREAS, 1t has pleased Almighty God to
remove from this life Doctor JAMES GRAY
THOMAS, for many years a member of this
body.
We tender to his memory our cordial ex-
associate, whose counsel was ever ready, con-
scientiOus and wise, whose conduct, whether
in Christian or in any of the relations of life.
was unfailingly signalized by purity, earnest
ness, and rigid fulhllment of every just Obiiga-
ton.
benevolent, the poor and the needy lose in
him kind, often generous, but never an
Ostentatious friend; successful in his arduOus
profession, q numerous and devoted clientage
lament the skillful and yiglant physician
abruptly torn from the painful scenes, where
conf tence and faith in him gave assurance of
relief; without undue aspirations, but dis
tinguIshed In every official position to which
he was called he was faithful in public trust
and ever studious of the public health as
essential to public prosperity in its highest
and broadest sense, he lost at last, under
Almighty God. his vigorous and noble life in
professional effort for the public welfare.
Uniting in the common sorrow for his
decease, we mourn him absent forever from
the Church, from the community, from the
State, from his profession, and from his
friends.
To the members of his family we re pect-
fully offer the assurance Of our tenderest sym
patty in their great bereavement.

The Largest Audience of the Season At
the Theatre Last Night

the Theatre Last Night.
standing room only" was the sign
over the box Office window at the Theatre
last night before the curtain was rung up.
The announcement OF 'sThe Romany Rye
was an assurance Of a crowded house,
but there were few who expected to see
1t filed as it was from the stage to the
lobby and the galleries packed to
the walls and almost to the ceiling.
The play was splendidly produced
and enthusiastically received. The
scenery with its fine spectacular feat
ures was by far the finest that has
been seen in Savannah for a long time.
The cast was in every way excellent.
The plot turns upon the attempt of man
to dispossess his elder brother of his right
full estate. and a strong element of pic
turesqueness is gained by the fact that
the elder brother has been all his life a
ward Of the gypsies. The incidents of the
play, recording the successive attempts
to destroy tins gypsy brother, are relieved
by the episodes Of the respective love
affairs of the two brothers. The strongest
scene in the play is undoubtedly the cellar
in the Black Croft, where the unfortunate
brother, "The ROmany Rye" is bound and
carried out to be drowned by two hire
lings in the Thames. This was received
with much applause, and after the
succeeding scene on the river the actors
were all called before the curtain. In
both these scenes the stage appointments
were excellent. They are, indeed, very
strong features of the whole performance,
and Craig's Nest by moonlight, the shop
Of the bird fancier at the Seven Dials, the
Hampton race course and the wreck OF
the Saratoga in Falmouth harbor, are all
realistic pictures of the kind which seems
now To constitute the main stock in trade
Of every new melOdrama. The play runs
very smoothly in the hands of a company
that has acquired long familiarity with it,.
Brooks & Dickson seldom send out poor
company and the one performing 'Romany
Rye'' is one of the best. The play will be
repeated tonight, the curtain rising
promptly at O'Clock.
