The immediate cause of the cold which
proved fatal to the Emperor William was
an accident which happened to him on the
night OF Saturday, March g. His physi-
clan, DR.. Won Lauer, had expressly warned
him against attempting TO leave his bed
without assistance: but in order to snare
his personal attendants, who were in an
adjoining room, the emperor ventured to
disregard the injunction. He got out of
bed safely, but when ne was endeavoring
10 return his strength failed him and he
fell to the floor. He was unable 10 raise
himself. and ere his attendants entered
the room he had contracted severe chill
They did what they could for the EN-
peror's comfort, but he laughed At the
mishap, and only beSouGht them: Don't
say word to LaUer!'-St. James Ga

The Benevolent Association.

SAVANNAH. GA, Aug. 15.-Editor
Morning News: Allow me to cor
rect an inaccuracy in your item concerning
the organization of the Savannah benevo-
lent association. | do not desire to court
credit to myself, but the following are the
facts concerning the creation of this chart
table institution:
About Sept. or g. 1854, Mr.. James ].
Webb and Charles S. Arnold were diniag
with me at the home of Mr. Edward Pade-
ford, where had taken refuge with
my family after the terrible hurricane
of 1854, when my house was I'M
rooted, and at that dinner the situation
was considered, and suggestions made as
how best to relieve the distresses of the
sick and needy in the city. We thereupon
agreed TO donate $500 each for that purpose,
and on the following morning a notice to
that effect appeared in the Savannah Re
publican. On the 18th a meeting was
held at the Exchange long room and the
Savannah benevolent association" was
organized with myself as president and
George L. Cope as treasurer. Iremained
as president throughout that epidemic and
that of 1853 and resigned in 1860. Very re-
specially, WIN. HONE.
