Serious Accident to Mr, Henry L,
Davis.
We regret to note a very serious and ex
ceedingly painful accident to our t steemed
citizen, and very efficient Clerk of the
Market, Mr. Henry L. Davis, which oc
curred yes’erday morning. Mr. Davis was
attending to his usual duties in the Market,
ju-t before the closing hour, when he
unfortunately stepped upon a piece of
Ice (some water thrown on the bricks near a
stall having frozen) and tumbled heavily
to the ground. He 6truck upon his left
knee, splitting the kneepan and kuocking
it out of joint, causing a very painful and
serious injury. lie was sssisted
to the office and a physician sum
moned. Subsequently he was removed to
his residence, c >rner of Bull and New
Houstou streets, where he received the best
surgical attention. It is probable Mr. Davis
will be coufined to bis house for a few
weeks, but it is hoped the injury will not be
permanent, and that he will soon recover
the use of his leg. In his afibetton he has
the full sympathy of many warm friends,
scores of whom called on him during the
day as soon as the accident was known.
The Theatre.
A fair audience in the parquette and dres g
circle and a big family circle and gallery
greeted the first appearance at the Theatre
last evening of Henry Miner and Pat
Roomey’s Consolidated Combination. Tht
entertainment Is of the variety order, and is
very good of the kind, some of the features
introduced being very amusing. The house
seemed pleased and were prodigal in their
•ucores. The company comprises excellent
-rtists in the specialty line, and, creditably,
u.ay be noticed Tommy and Annie Dayton,
Jpppie D dand, and Miss Georgle Kaine and
Pat Rooney, who is an excellent cari
caturist. The petite Miss Katie R >oney,
who is a veritable pocket editiou of the ini
mitable Pat, was enthusiastically applauded.
The compauy will gtve a matinee this after
noon and a farewell performance to-night.

A Handsome Compliment.
The employes of the machinist depart
ment of the Savannah, Florida and \Ve6tern
Railway, learning of the resignation of Mr.
Charle3 Collins, the efflclent and popular
Master Machinist, who has filled the post
tion 60 honorably for many years, de
termined to testify their appreciation of
and esteem for him as a man in
a substantial manner. A committee was
appointed, of which Mr. J. T. Murtagh was
chairman, and a fuLd being raised
by voluntary subscription, a very elegant
gold headed cane was purchased at Mr. 8
F. Hamilton's jsweliy store, which was ee
lected as the testimonial. Last night about
nine o’clock, the employes to the number
of over one hundred and fifty, assembled at

proceeded to the residence of Mr. Collies,
and complimented him with a fine serenade
They were iuvited in, when Mr. F. M.
Readick, on bc-balf of the employes, pre
sented the cane in a very neat and well
timed address, referring to the long and
pleasant connection of Mr. Collins as Master
Machinist, and wishiog him prosperity and
success in the new field oa which he is about
to ente - , coupled with the usual greetings of
the New Year. Mr. Collies was very visibly
affected, but recovering from his surprise,
returned his acknowledgments for the un
expected and appreciated compliment in a
few felicitous remarks.
The party were then very generously and
hospitably entertained, and an hour was
passed soelab’y and pleasantly. The head of
the cane bears the foilowiug Inscription:
Presented to

Master of Machinery, S , F. A W. Ry Cos.,

Frozen to Death.
Brief mention was made in the News of
yesterday that Daniel Green, colored, had
reported at the police barracks that two
colored men ha 1 been frozen to death on
Thursday at Dr. Waring’s plantation. The
Coroner was notified, and yester
day held an inquest, at which the
following facts were elicited; A
boat from Hilton Head bound to Savannah,
and containing some five or six colored per
sons, was capsized in the river near the
plantation named, and the men were
thoroughly dreuehed. The day, it
will be remembered, was bitter’ cold,
and the men were in the water
sufficiently long to be thoroughly chilled
through. Four of the party managed to
reach a place of shelter; but two of them,
Captain Singleton and Cuffee Dotson, were
so exhausted that they were unable to pro
ceed any distance, and were completely
overcome by the cold. They were found
dead, as sta’ed, on Ihe plantation, near the
river. The Coroner’s jury rendered a ver
dict in accordance with the fact#.

A Hew Hailroud Purctiu*e.
The Columbus Enquirer gives the follow
ing particulars iu relation to the purchase
of the old Memphis and Savannah Railroad
by President Wadley, of which brief men
tion was made a day or two since. Says
that paper :
“On last Saturday Col, W. M. Wadley,
President of the Central Railroad, purchased
the Columbus and Western—formerly the
Memphis and Savannah Railroad. The
price paid is something over #7OO 000. All
will be glad to learn that it has fallen Into
such management, for althouth Columbus
was Interested to the amount of? 100,000,
comparative small benefit have we derived.
The road extends from Opelika to Good
water. Ala , through one of the richest
countl-s in Alabama. It Is one of the best
located roads in Alabama.
“Some time ago it was sold to the bond
holders, when the name was changed to
that which forms the caption to this article,
The purchasers (the bondholders) have been
negotiating with Colonel Wadley and asso
ciates for some time past, but not until lest
Saturday was a trade effected.
“Yesterday morning Col. Wadley passed
through our city eu route for Opelika. His
mlsslou Is to go over the road in order to
see that everything is as represented in the
bill rendered. This will require several
days, when, if everything is correct, the bar
gain will be closed. The new company will
take control about January Ist, 1881.
“They propose making Columbus the
eastern terminus and runuing trains from
this point to Good water. We congratulate
our city on such a prosperous turn of affairs.
“Three cheers and a tiger for the Colum
bus and Western.”
For iWaglatraie In the Fourth.
Mr. Editor : An election will be held to
day in the Fourth district for Justice of the
Peace. Mr. John Reedv has withdrawn his
name as a candidate, which leaves the con
test between our fellow citlzsn, Robert J.
Wade, Esq , and W. 11. Woodhouse, colored,
aud Richard Stewart, colored.
The people of the district now have an
opportunity to put in office a gentleman
qualified iu every particular to discharge
the duties of the office. Mr. Wade Is
known to us all to be an upright “itizeu.
Go to the polls to-day, men of the sourth
district, and vote for him.
The district is sadly in need of an upright
Magistrate. I hope that every law abiding
citizen of the district will feel it hss duty to
go to the polls to day, corner South Broad
and Price streets, and do his whole duty.
Don’t stay away, but go to the polls and let
us have in the Fourth district what we have
not had since the close of the war, an up
right and intelligent Magistrate.

The Weather.
Yesterday opened quite cold, though the
temperature was milder than on the prece
ding day. Towards noon the sky became
overcast with leaden clouds and there were
Indications of snow, aud the wind shifted
northeast. About dusk there was a fall of
flakes of snow, which, however, was
fcarcely perceptible, and eoon resolved
into sleet, which froze as It fell on the side
walk, rendering predestrlauism rather
risky, and several slip ups are recorded.
About 11 o’clock last night rain set iu and
continued falling until a late hour, the
prospects being favorable for a cold, rainy
New Year.
Scarcity oi Fuel.
There is a great scarcity of both wood
and coal in the city at present, and dealers
have considerable trouble In filling orders.
There is a full supply of certain grades of
coal, but of others there is a scarcity. Wood
dealers inform us that they have plenty of
oak and pine on the lines of railroad, but. in
consequence of the very unfavorable
weather are unable to have It cut and loaded,
It being difficult In some cases to obtain
transportation. There has, however, been
uo increase in prices, and it Is thought the
fuel market will be booming In a short
time.
Guilty of Wrong.
Some people have a fashion of confusing
excellent remedies with the large mats of
“patent medicines,” and in thi* they are
guilty of a wrong. There are
some advertised remedies fully worth
ail that is asked for them, and
one at least we know of—Hop Bitters.
The writer has had occasion to use the Bit
ters in just such a climate as we have most
of the year lu Bay City, and has always
found them to be first-class and reliable,
dolDg all that is claimed for them. — Tribune.

Great Reduction la Prices.
Attention is directed to the advertisement
elsewhere of the New York Clothing House,
140 Congress street, in which the pleasing
announcement of a great reduction in prices
of clothing is made. The manager is de
termined to dispose of the entire stock of
winter clothing, rather than carry it over to
tbe next season, and offers it at 25 to 50 per
cent, below tbe market price. It will be
well for those who desire to purchase good
seasonable suits to call at tbe New York
Clothing House and see for themselves.

REVENUE DECISIONS.

United States Inijsenal Revenue,
Collector’s Office, Third District,
Georgia, Savannah, December 30 —Editor
Morning Stum: For tbe information of
dealers In leaf tobacco and cigar manufac
turers, I hand you herewith for publication
a copy of & letter addressed by the Hon.
Commissioner of Internal R2Trnu3 to J. D.
Harvey, E.-q , Collector of the First District
of Illinois, and published in the Internal
Ravenne Record, volume xxvi., number 51,
page 401, Very respectfully,
Edward C. Wade,
Collector.
Treascbt Department, ,
Opficx of Internal Revenue,
Washington, December 15, 1880. )
J, D. Harvey, Esq., Collector First District,
Lhieago, IU.:
Sir —I am In receipt of your letter of the
9th Instant, enclosing a communication ad
dressed to you by J. Friedman, a leaf dealer
ia your district. Mr. Friedman solicits a
decision from this office upon tbe question
whether marked or actual weights of leaf
tobacco are to be entered by leaf dealers in
their leaf books, and if actual weights are
to be entered, he wishes to be Informed how
this term is to be applied to tobacco that has
been resweated by the leaf dealer, and sold
in such a state to cigar manufacturers.
I reply that the law requires (see section
3360 U. 8. Revised Statutes) that every
dealer in leaf tobacco shall make dally en
try In two books, kept for that purpose,
of the number of hogsheads, cases and
pounds of leaf tobacco purchased or re
ceived by him on consignment, transfer, or
otherwise, and of the number of hogs
heads, cases or pounds sold by him, etc.
The weight of the tobacco in pounds at
tbe time of purchase, and at the time of
sale, is to be entered iu the leaf dealer’s
book. The terms “marked weight,” “ac
tual weight” and “resweated tobacco” are
not recognized In the law. Nor does the
law establish any standard for measuring
t"e proportion of moisture ia leaf tobacco;
nor does it recognize changes in its con
dition produced by evaporation or absorp
tion of moisture. The process of resweit
iDg is not a process of manufacture. Any
addition to the weight of the leaf by tbe
resweating process becomes part and parcel
of the leaf. As the leaf dealer is required
by law to enter daily in his books the num
ber of pounds purchased, so he is required
to enter daily the number of pound# sold,
together with the name aud residence, In
each instance, of the purchaser.
He cannot, in any case, be allowed to sell
one hundred pounds of resweated tobacco
and enter it in hla book, and bill It to the
manufacturer as eighty or eighty-five
pounds, or a? any other number of pounds
less than one hundred.
Any discrepancy appearing iu a leaf deal
er’s books between the aggregate amount of
his purchases and sales rcu?t be balanced
by an entry of the increase or loss in weight,
as the case may be. All tobacco reported
by cigar manufacturers is required by the
regulations to be the actual weight of the
leaf, and Is assumed to be tobacco iu Its
normal condition, unless the tobacco is
resweated, and evidence of that fact is fur
nished to the Collector at the time it is re
ported.
Any other mode of making entries by leaf
dealers and manufacturers than that 0/ the
actual w-eight of the leaf tobacco at the time
of purchase and at the time of sale, would
leave this officer in uncertainty ou what ba
sis to compute tbe productiou from the
qnantiiy cf leaf tobacco reported as used
by the manufacturer.
If thl3 rule is strictly compiled with, cigar
manufacturers will have no difficulty in ob
talcing from this office all the allowance
they are entitled to receive when they pur
chase and use resweated tobacco. Respect
ful’y, Grbk.v B. Raum, Commissioner.
Reliable.
It is useless to deny the great curative
effects of Simmons’ Liver Regulator. Its
virtues are attested by thousands who have
used the medicine, and it is now largely in
demand. It commends itself to the public
by its component parts being entirely vege
table, no injurious effects from its use,being
pleasant to the taste, aud its operation upon
the liver being perfect, at the same time so
imperceptible that it interferes with neither
business nor pleasure.
