WEDNESDAY, Al'RIL 12, 1#7?.
The Swntara and monitor Mahopao
arrived at Port Roytii on Monday from I
Pcnsncola.
The Savannah AW* says that the banquet
to the excursionists furnished al
Port Royal was ordered by the mayor ot
Atlanta, and that it cost $:M0 cash and
Tcalized only $180.
The Shaw omt and monitor Aja\!
arrived on Friday last fiom Pcnsac'da.
The Ajax lias small p ix on hoard and was'
put in quarantine. Thed isease is supp >m-i]
to have lx>en brought from soma recruits j
from New Orleans.
The drun fish season is at iis height and ,
the fishermen are like the sands on thej
sea shore, and are reaping a rich harvest'
of green-backs. The sailors in the navy
are also reveling in an unlimited supply
of drum which they catch from the decks j
of the vessels.
The steamer Thomas Morgan is run-!
rung between Beaufort and the fleet.!
making three trips daily. It is to be j
hoped she will find encouragement!
enough to remain permanently which slw !
will do it'it pays.
When the five small monitors till arrive,
they will he sent to Savannah to lay in i
fresh water. As there will likelv onlv 1
be a guard left aboard the number of!
men necc?mrv to look after them will not '
be over fifty all told.

Congressman Smalls and Ilogc have I
hern laboring with the Secretary of War
in regard to the Savannah Hack River!
and protested against improvements!
contemplated in that section. We are
glad to chronicle the fact that Mr. Congressman
Smalls has got his coat off
and gone to work at something.
A number of our citizens indulged in
a visit to the fleet on Friday last and
arrived just in time to see the close of)
the race between the Brooklyn and Con- i
gross. The party went on hoard the
Dictator and v. ere highly pleased with
tho great curiosities on 'he vessel,
although none of them express d a wish j
to vounteer as coal- passjrse in the dun- !
geon.
The second great race between the:
crews of the Brooklyn and Congress came
off on Friday. The distance was five j
miles, each boat carrying twelve oars.!
and resulted, as did the previous race, in i
lhvor of the Congress boys. Just before |
the start the friends of the Brooklyn'
crew offered a large sutn in bets and at |
odds but the whole was not taken as it was!
thought that the Brooklyn was certain j
of victory. The result is sai.l to be owing j
to the excellent training of the winning!
crew whose rowing was a marvel of,porter- i
tion and time. Seventeen hundred dollars
only changed hands on the result.
The county commissioners at their Iffst I
lnccting granted to the Plank Road;
Company twenty feet of the road between
the Beaufort line and the rai road d' pot.
Ills to ho hoped that this company will!
iit once gat to worl; and give us a good
road us far rs the dcp< t, and then they i
can take their time to contin ue it to Port;
Royal. So many charters have been'
granted to our citizens without their ever !
amounting to anything that we should i
have but little faith in this enterprise but J
For the fact that some of the incorporators!
*11 in t\f lnoinojj an 1 5f lK<?** q.?t* t La 1
road shall be built it will be done. We
hope there will be no delay in this much
needed improvement.
It having been rumored that Dr. Warren,
who has been tn Washington for some
days, would not return, his ; reditor* on
Saturday lust alt ached his pr >p rt? in
Beaufort and Port Royal, seizing everything
that was portable. The Club House
was closed and the Vansion House placed
in charge of Rogers late clerk at the Sen
Island. There is s' md talk of puling
the Dr. in bankruptcy which would be
an excellent idea if the credit >rs desirfd |
to get nothing. The Sea Island Hotel
fuoiture went through the bankrupt
court, and the proceeds amounting to
over $3000 were all swallowed up in costs
except less than $300, and if the Dr.'s
Creditors could be as successful they
trnight makeup the balance of costs after
all the property was gone out ol
heir own pickets. A dispitc'i from Dr.
Warren said he would leave yesterday

One of our most esteemed friends, a
resident of Port Royal, desires us to st:(tt
that we fabricated when we asserted
that the mail for the fleet was soon to he
delivered at the Beaufort post oflJce. As
we have a great dislike to acknowledging
ourselves iu error we will qualify
the assertion hv stating that the mail
Trill be delivered both at. Port Royal and
Heaufort hereafter, and the launch will
come up every morning and evening
stopping ot? its ?ctufn t* Port Royal to
gt'f the mail and some of the choice
supplies that can he had of the enterprising
Wilkins, without whom Port Royal
would he a nonentity. The Beaufort
merchants will,- ho'wovef strive to till the
baskets of (he stewarrfi <fho travel on

There were only two bids for tlie past
indebtedness W. 11. Corkwood hid for
$1 100 at one quarter of one per cent tlis
count and .1. It. Blount $18.10 at ten jiei
cent oft". The question of how the certificates
issued to school tenchcis for the balancoduoon
their claims should he paid
w 13 finally dee'd'-d. The treasurer will,
when in funds, take up the certificates
and return td the commissioners their
hecks and leciive as his Touchers the
oriirina! nn v certificates. As the treasurei
has uow, including the Poll tat, about
$2500. to the credit of this fund a pay
incut pro rata will be made a? soon as
the taxes are all in. The usual crowd of
hungry claimants crowed the commission
ersjruom all clamorous for their pay and
most of litem succeeded in getting sonicthing.
It was the best day for road oversee!?
known for a long time and but one,
Pompcy C'oaxum, was dissatisfied with
this one of the liar lest days work ever
done by them. One individual present
who takes much Interest in '.hc*e public
servants, made a eaeblntion thai for every
days work done <>n the highway ten days
were spent in getting their piv. Most
of the others had to submit to bavins
their claims pro rated acc?rding to tlie
money on hand which, altliough generally
satis factory, was the cause of some
hard feeling on the part of those who
could see no justice in it. The hoard
was in set-ion all day and on Friday
evening when tliev adjourned to meet
May 8tli, at 4. p. 111.
Mr. James Odd! iinforms us Ihat lie

Judge Carpenter was elected a delegate
t > the State Convention from
Edgefi-ld Paris SimUina was dofcttcd because,
the Advrtiser says: "his course in
the legislature has L.?.u characterized by
reform, retrenchment, impartiality, decency
and dignity," and "he h?i exhibit
td a spirit ?t foresight, in ?d ration and
statesmanship quite unco union among
his race. And for these ^evidences of
good in his character, his head inuai
needs full into the basket. It is unlucky
indeed for Paris that liis wisdom an*
moderation shonld be the means of bring
ing into such bold relief the rancor of
his race and party."

after this there was a pretty free use o:
hard words on both sides urtill tin
