THEY QUIETED DOWN.
A Case that Stirred Frogtown from
Kim to Center, Dismissed.


The Syms-Patrc1 case, which was post
poned in Justice Russell's court Monday,
came up yesterday afternoon, and for lack
Of testimony the charge against the Pat
ricks was dismissed. A few weeks ago
Mrs Syms, who lived near Frogtown,
quafied glass If beer, and started to her
neighbours house, Mrs Charles Patrick's,
which is block away, 10 exchange the

the more she thought Of it the more 'riled'
she got, so that when she reached the house
size was good and mad." A vigorous
knocking on the door brought Mrs. Patrick
out
Il have como to get the money your hus-
band owes my son, y said Mrs SymS.
Mrs, Patrick, seaing that her neighbor
was mot herself, called her-husband out
thinking he might be able to straighten
matters. AT the sight Of HIM Mrs. SYms
flew into passion and for a little while
things were lively in that neighborhood.
The two women closed and Mrs Syms
went down. Mrs Patrick Is small woman,
but a power when stirred up. She sat
coInplacently on the body of the PROSTATE
Mrs Syms, dealing her stinglog blows in
the face. TIE women were finally separated
aud Mrs. Syms returned to her own home.
No action was taken in the matter until
few days ago, when another volley of
angry words were passed. and warrants
were issued against Mr.. and Mrs. Patrick,
charging them with n breach Of the peace.
The case came up last week and they
were released on bond, pending examina-
ton. After fl postponemont Ct the case
Monday it came up yesterday, and the
prosecutor being absent the case was dis
missed.
Mrs. Patrick said that her purpose in de-
manding an examination was to prove the
innocence of her husband and to condemn
Mrs Syms. She said that since her prose
cutor had failed to appear it was a sure
evidence that neither she nor Mr. Patrick
We're guilty of any breach of the peace.

A comparison Of the deaths for the six
months ending June 80, 1883, and for the
same period last year, makes most favor
able showing for the healthfulness of the
people of Savannah this year. Notwith-
standing the increase of the population Of
the city, the deaths have decreased frac-
ton over 16 per cent, the deaths for the
first six months of 1883 aggregating 534
against 636 for the same time last year.
This shows a healthful sanitation from a
variety of causes, among which the purity
of the artesian water, the rigid sanitary
rules which have been maintained, and the
advanced system OF disinfectlon.

from in Few Days
The jury commissioners held a final
meeting yesterday afternoon, at which they
concluded their examination of all the data
bearing on the question of the much criti-
cised jury lists some weeks ago. They were
not inclined to be communicative last night,
or rather they were not disposed to give
out anything for publication, but certain
hints dropped here and there warrant the
assertion that they are done with the in
quisitorial part of their work, and all that
remains now il TO make up a report for
publication, and that will, in all proba-
bility, be done within a day or two, and
published over the names Of one or more of
the jury commissioners
1t is understood that the commi ssioners
found quite number Of minors on the list,
but they will also claim that corresponding
names were found on the tax list. Their
investigation has been very thorough, and
they have checked back every disqualified
juror. Without anticipating tho report in
detail, one of the jury commissioners re-
marked that they had concluded their in
vestigation and the result was satisfactory
TO themselves. Their published report will
be awaited with interest, and as one Of the
jury commissioners said last night, lit will,
think, be prepared for publication in two
or three DAYS

ard from a stoop on Wednesday, resulting
in injuries to Isabella which have laid her
up. Quite an array OF witnesses were
sworn, and the defendant was represented
by counsel. Some OF the witnesses testified
that Anna Moore's husband had expressed
satisfaction at the brutal deed, aud went so
far as TO say that he wished she had broken,
or would break, the neck, Of all the good
fprnothing negroes about there. the testi-
mony went 10 show that when the baluSter
gave way with the Leonard woman she fell
on horse rack, aud when picked up
was unconscious. II was developed on the
examination that Isabella charged Anna
with the theft Of ring, and Anna's retort
was 10 dash her violently against the rail

The campaign for county commissioner

vacancy had already been filed Mr.. p.
d. Dafiin and DIR. L. A. Falligant, were the
other two candidate for the Office
A MORNING News reporter called on DR..

shortly after the news of his appointment
reached the city. The doctor disclaimel
having been an aspirant for the Office. He
had not sought it, he said, but he would
accept the appointment. In fact, he said
he had been consulted beforehand, and had
agreed to serve if appointed.
DR.. Read attended Gov Gordon when the
latter was lying wounded in a hospital in
Richmond. He had not seen him to speak

The following table shows the total values
IF the digestS for tie nreyions five years.


The apparently large increase in banking
capital and the decrease in building and
loan associations is explained principally
by the fact that one loan association has
been withdrawn from the column of build
ing associations and has entered the ranks
of the banks, and another loan association
closed up aud went out of business during
the year.
The large increase in the value of lands
in the county is very satisfactory, and is
due to the vigilance of the tax receiver and
the intelligent discrimination of tho bolrd
of county assessors, who are endeavoring
to equalize taxation by making tho county
property bear its just proportion of this
burden. The holdings of the colored prop
erty owners show the gratifying increase
of nearly $4,000 during the year
