Miller, and Misses Chambers. McCready,
and Blancke were applauded until they
appeared in front Of the curtain. Mr..
Readick's "Injun" il a funny redskin and

The Cleveland reform ak has at last
come down in Savannah, and two night
inspectors on the custom house pay roll

secretary Manning evidently thought
that the services of two OF the men could
be dispensed with, and he notified Collec-
tor johnson to dismiss two on July 81.
The saving will be 81, AGO a year,as the de-
partment does not intend that either place
shall be filled. These are the first reno
walls of Federal officers in this city under
the new administration.

FLoRIpA.s FIRsr RALE.

Received by w. w. Gordon Il Co Last
Nfgbt-To be Classed Tomorrow.
Messrs. W. W. Gordon & Co. received
last night from Williams & Mitchell, of
brownsville, the hrst bale OF new Florida
cotton, which they claim to be really the
first bale received at this port this season.
Adyices Of the shipment were received by
Messrs. Gordon 4 Co. yesterday morning,
but the bale was not received until last
night, too late to be classed by the Cotton
Exchange committee. Its weight Is 546
pounds. 1t will be classed tomorrow.
The cotton was raised by Messrs. Dixon
Bros, of Leon county, Fla. Though not
formally passed upon by the Cotton Ex-
change committee, 1t is pronounced by
those who have seen 1t as fully matured.
The bale received last week from Primus
Jones, the Baker county first bale man.
and which was rejected by the chasing
committee as immature, has called
out reply from Mr.. Jones in which
ne says that the report is false. Il ad.
nit" he says, that the cotton was picked
wet, ginned wet, ana baled as it came
from the gin, which is often the case in
contending for the first bale, and espe.
cially SO in rainy weather. No one con-
tending for the first bale will lose time to
dry the cotton, as even an hours lost time
might subject one to defeat, and nothing
stops the party-rain, night or anything.
''lt IL always understood by all farmers
when cotton is open it is matured and
ready for gathering. II there IS any other
test to be applied II IL not known TO men
OF my occupation. If there is any other
way OF gathering it before IL opens. it's
something we are not AL ised ~. 1 for
one would like to know the secret as il
might be Of benefit TO me in some future
contest
Mr.. Jones claims that his bale Is legitt
mafely the first bale OF Georgia cotton
marketed this season, and says be Il
abundantly able 20 prove the falsehood oil
the report that Il was immature.

The tonnage was follows:
40,8i2 GAS 56,0l7

The arrivals of coastwise sail tonnage
was far below the average. The arrivals
OF foreign tonnage was somewhat disap-
pointing, still it was better than for the
previous month. The business for the
present month, it is anticipated, viii be
much larger. There is one British steam
ship bound from Europe for New York,
where she will discharge one-half of htr
cargo. The other half Will be discharged
at this port. There are also several
steamers chartered for next months
loading, and number of sailing vessels
for October and November loading.
A singular state OF affairs is that on Fri
day and saturday there was not single
schooner in port, something that prob
ably has never before occurred since the
war. There Is quite a fleet bound here.
The statement has been made that this
is the first time in twenty years that the
port of Savannah has been without
coastwise vessel. This is I'M
true. Friday there We're three steam
ships loading here for coastwise ports
the City CT Savannah for
Philadelphia, the William Crane for Bal
timore, and the Nacoochee for New York
In fact, the port of Savannah has never
since the war been without a coastwise
vessel, and has more coastwise vessels
halllng from it than any port on the South
Atlantic coast

The Memphis and ChArleAton Control.
The East Tennessee, Virginia and Geor-
gia has at last discovered way in which
to secure control of the Memphis and
Charleston, which 1t purchased some time
ago. A New York special says: AT the
time when the stockholders were at vari-
ance with the lessees OF the East Tennes-
see, very considerable interest was re-
quired on speculation by Philadelphia,
That interest proved to be large enough
TO carry the deciding vote, and Messrs.
Brice and Thomas, and their associates,
were compelled to make a private settle
ment with B. X. Jamison 81 Co, of Phila-
delphia, and 4. w. Evans, paying 80 for
the stock when it's quotations on the mar
ket was 81 to 80. They held it for the
East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia,
but the latter went into the receivers
hands ana has not yet been able to pay for
1t. The court has now granted the Knox
vile and Ohio, a branch OF the East Ten
nessee, right to issue $2,000000 per
cent. first mortgage bonds, to be used by
the latter in acquiring $2,400O00 of the
Memphis and Charleston stock, which
carries the control with it of 5000, 900 Gin
cinnati and Georgia %, and $500, 600 East
Tennessee debentures. These securities
are to be placed in trust as securities of
the East Tennessee 5s, and the Knoxville
and Ohio will in this manner discharge it's
debt of ST, S00,0 00 TO the East Tenness &c,

ATLANTA MERCHANTS AND THE
SOUTHERN POOL.

No Answers Yet to their Petition for
Restored Rebilling Privileges-New
Locomotives Turned out of the Cen
trails Shops The Memphis and
Charleston Road.
The Atlanta merchants are grieved over
the failure Of the Southern Railway and
Steamship Association to grant their
petition for a restoration to Atlanta
OF the rebilling privileges which
were short time ago removed
from all cities in the territory Of
the pool except Nashville. At a meeting
held some weeks ago a committee was
appointed and empowered to take charge
OF the entire matter, and act for the mer-
chants and shippers OF Atlanta. The
committee prepared a contract TO be
signed by the merchants, binding them to
act III all matters connected With the
subject OF reshipping as directed
by the committee. A number Of
signers placed their names to
the contract paper. A memorial as
already stated in the NEWS, was also
prepared for presentation To the Southern
Railway and Steamship Association, set
ting forth the desires Of the merchants OF
Atlanta, and the injury which they claim
ed that suspension OF The rebliing sys-
TEN would be TO the mercantile interests
of The city. The memorial, together with
a copy Of the agreement between the mer-
chants and the committee, was sent
to Virgil Powers, general commits
sioner, with the request that the
subject be considered by the associa-
ton. On Wednesday the rate committee
which was to consider the matter met in
New York, and the complaint was laid
before the meeting. since then the com
mittee in Atlanta has heard nothing, and
presume that the silence of the associa-
ton means that the request will NOT be
granted,
1t is now rumored In Atlanta that terms
have been made with the Louisville and
Nashville Railroad by which the mer-
chants will get all their Western products
over that line
