The murchison Fraud.

EDITORS HKRALD-There are many
comments of the press and otherwise
upon the law and dastardly trick Of the
writer of the "Murchison" letter, and
but few. of them characterize the ''cur'
with the scorn and contempt he merits.
In all the history of tricks to make
political capital, this is the last and
dirtiest. The dog not so much obeys the
whistle OF his master as this fellow has
run on the scent Of his game. He runs a.
muck like the South Sea islander upon
his own weapon, for the sake of dirty
notoriety and to subserde his masters,
who, in the end, will kick him for his
dirty work. And the great Statesman, u
Mr.. Blaine, receives the letter Of reply
of the British Ambassador and holds it
up to crowd upon public occasion.
And for what purpose does this distin-
guished candidate for President produce
this reply? For the purpose Of degrading
a representative of the English Govern
ment to the United States, and for the
further purpose of making political capi.
tai at the last hour while the Republican
party is in e.Ttrenaas.
This "great statesman" should have
seen at once, that the open notorious
fraud committed by the contemplate
vampire, for the object of making politi.
cal capital, will ultimately "return to
plague the inventors"
When the American people have had
time to reflect upon this thing in all its
fraudulent bearings, let the election &c
which way it may, then the reaction will
come as surely as the morrow, and the
dastardly coup which may result in bring.
ing Democratic and Republican institu'
tions to be a stencil in the nostrils of the
world, will end in Republican "boom'
erang." J. ID.

were filed in the Superior Court yester-
day:
Francisco Cruiza vs.. Sebastiono Ma
troni. Breach of promise to marry.
Complaint alleges that the promise to
marry was made Agugust oath and was
to be fulfilled October oath, and in
anticipation of this event plaintiff lived
with defendant as his mistress, and
when she reminded him of his promise
on the goth day OF October, he declared
that he would not marry her, but aban-
doned her, and at the time OF the filing
of this complaint the promise still re
manned unfulflled; wherefore the COM
plainant feels damaged in the sum Of
s., 600.

pany This is another of series of suits

have or claim certain secret interests
in the transaction, are asked to
show cause or be enjoined from

DANGER IN OLD SEWERS.

The Discovery that Plumber Made
on Liberty Street.
Mr.. L. A. Mccarthy, in repairing the
water closets of two tenement buildings on
the south side of Liberty street, between
Barnard and Whitaker streets, few days
ago, discovered that the house drainage
pipe had no outlet, it being stopped up with
the excrement to where it entered the house.
A further examination developed the fact
that the pipe was connected with an old
abandoned street sewer, which was filed
nearly to the top with the drainage FIR m
the houses in the neighborhood. How long
the sewer has been in its present condition
is not known, but its outlet is supposed to
have been closed when the Barnard street
sewer was built.
This discovery is only one out Of hundreds
that might be made if there were thorough
inspection of the house drainage of the city,
and it is strong argu ent in favor of good
system of sanitary drainage. In order to
give the promises ain outlet for its house
drainage, pipes had to be laid through Lib
erty street lane to Barnard street, distance
of $50 feet, at heavy COST to the owners Of
the property, and of MOI te to the adjacent
property. With system OF house drain
age such as has been advocated by the

are certainly dangerous to the public
health,

AT THE THEATER.
Thomas w. Keene as Richard lila
plendid Performance.

Splendid Performance.
Thomas W. Keene played orchard Ill"
before fine audience last night. Keene is
a favorite with Savannah theater goers,
and his performance was one of the best
that he has ever given here. He was three
times called before the curtain, and he re-
tired each time before repeated applause
Keene has a strong hold on the
theater-going public. 1t is hardly possible
to say anything new about him or his in
depreciation of Shakespeare's great
tragedy. In Richard III. he has made his
great Success. Unlike many Of the promi-
nent actors Of the day, Keene has sur
rounded himself with a strong company.
His chief support Mr.. George Learock as
the EARL Of Richmond deserves we'll the
prominence that he receives.
Miss Louise Pomeroy, who plays Eliza
BETH" has for many years been playing
Shakespeares heroines at the head of her
own company, and was here about six
years ago.
NJ s. Sarah A. Baker, who has been with
Mr.. Keene for many years, / still with him,
and her charming presentation Of the Ouch
ess of York" is one of the features of the
performance. When the company was here
last year Mrs. Baker had just celebrated
her fiftieth anniversary as an actress. Mr..
Keene's company throughout is complete,
and his own performance is not married by a
single stick"
Ehis afternoon Mr.. Keene will give a
matinee performance of Julius Cesar
and tonight he will appear in "Hamle )"
His Hamlet" is one of the best on the
stage, and in spite of the fact that it is a
Saturday night performance, the actors ad-
nirers will hardly fail to see him in next
to his greatest play
