and naval warfare and international law ana history
The Secretary says it deemed advisable that the
course of study should supplement the present nsrc-
toa in torpedoes Newport and that as the Govern
ment already possessed grounds and buildings near
Newport that place selected
In reply the second part Of the resolution he says
The reasons which have controlled the action OF this
were to found in the recognized necessity
for an advanced Of military aud naval education
I'm the United States There three such schools
In the Army and in the Navy. The latter Is the
torpedo station at Newport where class OF officers is
IN the art manufacturing and using orpedoes and tor
pedc explosives The constant changes in the methods
Of conducting naval warfare imposed by the mtr0duc-
ton Of armored ships swift cruisers rams seagong tor
fgid methods Of treating the various sub

TYBEE LOOMING UP AGAIN
PROJECT TO DEVELOP SAVAN-
EAH'S SEASIDE RESORT.

Preliminary Surveys Looking to the
Opening of New Water Route To the
south nd at the Island-What the
Plans Contemplate.
Since the recent sale of the TYbee Im-
proTement Company negotiations having
been going on with the purchasers, Messrs.
Screven, looking To- the purchase of the
lands, hotel aud tramway OF the defunet
company, and also that part of Tybee
Island known as the "SOuth End" owned
by those gentleman personally. The par
TIES interested in the proposed purchase
have been making the necessary
Investigations locking to the open
ing OF another route by which TO
reach the east and southeast front of
Tybee. other than bv way of the Savan-
nah river and the tramway across the
island. The plan is to connect Cow Head
cut, an estuary emptyinc into LaZarettO
creek, with Tybee river. These water
courses are separated hy a low marsh for
a distance of about 1870 feet 1t is pro-
posed tn dredge cut through the MARSH
and connect these rivers, both OF
which have an ample depth Of
water. The south end OF the island is
completely sheltered from storms, and
Tyhee river there opens OUT into beauti-
ful, broad sheet of water. With cut
made as proposed, steamers route
would he either by way Of the south chan
mel OF the Savannah river through LazA-
rettO creek to Cow Head cut, or
by way of Augustine creek, Free
bOrn's cut and LazarettO creek
TO the same point, thence down
Tyhee river to south end, or a short dis
lance up Horse-pen creek. from which
point a good road can be constructed at
small cost to the Ocean House. Such
route would save all transfers by rail,
passengers being landed within a short
distance of the beach. A part of toe plan,
it is said, will he TO take Jap the railroad
on tue north end of the island, and use
the rails in extending the road along the
eastern front to the south end, making
the latter the starting point. A pre-
liminary survey OF what is neces-
sary to be done has been
made, and it is said that it is satisfactory
to those who are interested. There is no
doubt that with proper and sale means of
access to the island it could be made
successful summer resort, especially so
if the south end, which is the most
pleasant part of the island, is made the
objective point.

A CONsUL's DILEMMA.

How the English Government. Through
its Agent, Was Forced to Recognize
the COnfRd-racy.
Col. Edward Cantwell, who Is at pres
mt one of the professors at the Georgia
Military Academy, in Savannah, was
Military Governor of Norfolk under the
c. s. A. ia 1882, and ordered the British
Consul to report for duty on the home
guard. Blu, the latter was more willing
to serve his country in the paths of peace
and pleasantness, and objected on the
ground of being Consul at Norfolk.
''Con vi to what government, strW
"To the United States government"
"But, sir, you are net in the United
States; you are in the Confederate States,
and you must show me papers acc-edit-
ing you to the Confederate States OF
America"
''But my government don't recognize
You as government"
VERY well, then, nay government don't
recognize you as Consul. You must
shoulder your musset and JOIN your COM
pany," was the lac0nic answer Of Col.
CantweU.
However, the unwarlike Consul
threatened to have q gunbOat come and
lombard Norfolk before he would serve.

United States will so to WORK tOtight you.
as il claims that Norfolk is still part OF
the Union, and then between you and the
United States fshting we shall go free"
However, the end of it was that the
Consul Appealed to MIR. Benjamin, Con
federate Secretary of War, who ordered
bis exemption from military duty, and so
the thTee-cornered war that Col. Can't
well wanted to see did not arise, and con-
sequently the G. 5. A. did not get free.

The attention of the members of the
"WOman's Chr istian Temperance Union"

by Miss Frances Willard in behalf Of Mrs.
Leavitt, Christian woman and cultured
lady who, with no capital save her faith

she went to the Sandwich Islands, was
welcomed by the Christian people there,
and established new society which trey
have been asking Of us for years. She
has now gone to Australia to introduce
our methods and plans there.
In the Orient there are hundreds OF
thousands of our race and speaking our
language who, by their habits of social
drinking, do greater harm than our mis-
siOnaries can by any means offset. Win
the gospel in one hand and the temperance
pledge III the other. and with
Inc help of the missionaries, she
will set the forces of new life moving in
those TAR off lands. Prayer Is desired for
her, especially in the Thursday afternoon
meetings of the WOman's Christian Tenn

Throne OF Grace.
1t is proposed to second these prayers
by g dime collection from each member
for this missionary OF the association to
aid her in the accomplishing OF this
journey and in planting the white flag of
peace and purity on these distant out
posts. Mrs. K. Webb will be glad tn re-
ceive from eoery member an early response,
ard any contribution will be cheeriully

A Special Term to Convene TO-Morrow
Judge speer to arrive To- day.
The United States Court will convene
in Savannah for the February term to-
morrow morning, at which time Judge
Speer will pre-ide for the first time since
his appointment and confirmation. Up
TO yesterday afternoon no summons had
been issued for the attendance of grand
and petit jurors. They will be issued

one, it being anticipated that the cases
ready for trial can be disposed of in less
than two weeks.
Among the criminal cases which will
be called for trial early during the ses-
sion, is that Of the United States against
L. i. Howard. OF RichBOnd county, now
in the county jail under warrant charg-
ing him with violation of the United
States election laws by bribery. The ac-
cusCd has not been regularly indicted by
a grand jury, and the case is on the
docket of the cou under a criminal
information warrant. If the defendant
shall waive Indictment the case can be
tried perhaps tomorrow.
Judge Speer was in Macon yesterday,
where he went from Atlanta. United
states Marshal Wade received a telegram
from the Judge yesterday stating that he
would be in Savannah this morning.

CAUGHT BY THE TIDE.
Il Demented Negro Woman Drowned
Near White Bluff.

Demented Negro Woman Drowned
Near White Bluff.
Coroner Dixon held an inquest at White
Bluff yesterday over the remains of a col
ored woman named Polly Young, who
was found drowned in a creek about one
mile from the blum on Friday afternoon
by a cOlOred man named Freeman
Massey.
The testimony elected at the inquest
showed that the woman was about 20 yt airs
old and was of nnsound mind. She had
been in the habit Of wandering from her
house at the Nicholson place, about
ten miles from the city, where she lived.
She left her home last Monday,
and though a search was made for her II
was unavailing. The negro, Massey, was
on the river in a boat on Friday, and hap
pened TO see the body i'll a creek. The
Only articles Of dress she had on were
wooden skirt and a shawl. When dis
covered the body was stuck fast in the
mud. 1t is supposed that the woman at
tempted to wade out in the marsh, and
got so deep.in the mire that she was un-
able TO extricate herself before the tide
arose. The jury, in It's verdict, attributed
death to accidental drowning. The re-
mains were inferred on the Nicholson
place, near White uf.

day or two ago Mr.. Gilfoy, who is
merchant at HardeeWlle, S. c., sent
negro named William Gibson to Savan-
nah to make few small purchases. Glib
s N was between 60 and 20 years old and
well known about Hsrdeeviile, and was
supposed to be tTusty cOlOred man of
sufficient experience in the ways OF the
world, and esp. cially in some OF the devil
Gus ways of Savannah, to resist the allure
.ments of such a place as Coopershop
lane. Gibson arrived in this city on
Friday with something over $3C in his
p 'ckot, most OF which was intruSted to him
by Mr.. Gilfoy. Some time during the
evening he met a dusky GamseI named
Emma Martin, who impressed him with
tue belief that she was an ext eme.y mod
est person, and finally succeeded by her
artful demeanOr ond her inquiries as to
show dc cuhd folks mont Hardeeyllle
WIS cumin' along" in persuadng Gibson
to believe that she was q good girl ''fur
list such gen!mum from SOuf kalina'
as he was. The surprise of Gibson knew
no bounds yesterday morning when he
aw0ke and found himself alone in a room
ia Co0pershOp lane. The bewitching
Emma was nowhere TO be seen, and
neither was tee $50 which he had in his
pockets the night before.
Hearing that Magistrates were in the
habit of plying the s0rrOws Of just such
cases as he was tor a consideration,
Gibson went to Justice Thomas j. Shelf
tall, and sued out warrant tor the arrest
Of the Martin woman, Aleck Gardner and
Sam Brown, charging them with larce y
from the person. Constable Jones arrested
the trio yesterday afternoon, and they
were committed to Jail. As Gibson was
deemed to be an important State witness,
and could not give bond for his appear
anCe. be was also committed.
