BRUNSWICK, (Ga.) ..NOV. 15, 1888.
Georgia Legislature. —We have re
ceived nothing pf the doings of this body
later than is cont*i|»ed in the letter of our
correspondent, which we publish below, with
the exception of the following from the Au
gusta Constitutionalist of the Bth inst.
Very little business.was done in either
house this morning. Several bills were in
troduced in the Senate, and read the first
time; one of them for amending the charter;
of the Central Rail Road and Banking Com
pany, and increasing its capital.
[from our correspondent.]
Milledgeville, Nov. & j
We closed the elections for our officers
yesterday evening, and owing to the absence
of three State Rights’ Members, lost our
Speaker. Mr. Day, (Union) the former Speak
er, was elected by a majority of two votes.
Our candidate was Mr. Meriwether of Put
nam. In the Senate, the State Rights party
were mere fortunate, all the members being
at their post.— Judge Dougherty, of Clark,
was elected President by a majority of five
votes. In joint ballot, the State Rights party
will have a majority of five to seven votes.
To-day a set of Resolutions were introduced
by Mr. Echols of Walton, respecting an inde
pendent treasury and a national bank, which
have caused much feeling. They were or
dered te be printed. The Governor’s message
was received yesterday, and contains much
matter of importance. S.
State Elections for Members of Con
gress.— On Tuesday last, was completed in
fourteen States of the Union, all the elections
which are to take place the present year for
members of the 26th Congress.—The result
as to Loss and Gain b v the parlies, we cannot
yet state ;—enough however has transpired to
induce us to believe that the opponents to the
present administration have lost nothing. The
struggle in almost every State has been se
vere, and the patronage of the administratiofi
not wanting to force results in their favor.
Perhaps, during the whole time of our ex
istence as a nation, there never has been a
period when party lines over so extended a
country seemed so closely drawn, and so vio
lently contested, as during the elections whicli
have just closed. We may attribute this state
of things to the fact, that a majority of our
intelligent and independent citizens are op
posed to the “ powers that be,” and the Ad
ministration knowing this have put in motion
all the activity that their patronage could
control, and under this commanding influence
thousands of illegal votes have found their
way into the ballot boxes.
In these fierce struggles, may it not be
feared that licentiousness is making rapid
strides upon the purity of our elections, and
will soon destroy the only safe-guard of our
country’s ark Public Virtue.
WELL DONE McINTOSH!
VVe are gratified to learn that on Monday
last, Maj. Charles 11. Hopkins was elected to
fill the vacancy occasioned by the resignation
of Mr. Mabry, a Representative from Mcln
tosh Coilpty, in the Legislature of this State,
over his opponent, Allen B. Powell, by a ma
jority of O.NE HONORED AND FOUR VOTES!
The vote in Darien stood as follows :
Hopkins, (State Rights) 111
Powell, (Union) 20
Fire. A two story dwelling,house owned |
and occupied by Mrs. Ann Wright, at Cart-;
wright’s point, in this county, was destroyed
by fire on Saturday morning last We un
derstand that owing to the progress- of the
flames, after the fire was discovered, prop
erty to the amount of five hundred dollars was
destroyed, there not being time to remove it
The way in which the house took fire is not
known, but is supposed to have been commu
nicated by a spark from the chimney.
QyThe Rev. Mr. Baird, will preach at the
Court House, in this city, on Sunday next—
Services to commence at half past ten o’clk.
New Paper. We have received the first
number of a very neatly executed paper, en
titled the “Old Dominion.” It is published at
Portsmouth, Va. by Theophilus Fisk and A.
F. Cunningham. In its politics it is democrat
ic republican.
From a statement published in the Charles
ton papers, it appears that from the Bth of
August to the 31st of October, the deaths in
that city amounted to six hundred and thirty
six—three hundred and fifty-two of which
were by stranger’s fever.
We perceive by the last number of the Da- j
rien Telegraph, that the Editor of that paper [
offers his establishment for sale, and as a ;
matter of courtesy notice the fact. We ap-,
prebend Darien is getting a little too hot for
him, or else he does not longer wish to live in -
a place where “ there is neither law nor jus- 1
tice to be had.” To any person who would |
publish a respectable paper devoted to the in
terest of that place and its citizens, we think
the opportunity offers a very good inducement
for safe investment. He says, but we do not
vouch for the fact, that the paper has a “ VERY
EXTENSIVE circulation throughout the
State! as well as in Alabama!! Louisiana...
Mississippi!!!! New York!!!!! Massachusetts!!!!!!
Connecticut!!!!!!! Pennsylvania!!!!!!!! District of
Columbia!!!!!!!! &c.”
i Governor's Message. Owing to its
length and the late Mbr it was received, we
are compelled to omit this very able docu
ment till our next
Morus Mclticaulis. A sale at auction
of about fifty thousand Morus Multicaulus
Mulberry trees, took place at New York re
cently. They brought from 17 to 19 cents
per foot.
The silk culture and manufacture, says a
New iork paper, is extending rapidly in this
I country. We scarcely open a paper, but we
find interesting statements of facts on this
subject, and we think we hazard nothing in
| saying that the time cannot be far distant when
| the exportation of silk will be among the chief
products of the country. If we remember
right the first silk produced in this country
was in Connecticut, where it has been regu- i
larly extending, until the demand for the Mul
berry Tree has become so great that all that
can be bought in the state would not be a suf- j
ficient supply for one county.
From the New Orleans Bee, we learn a j
fact as gratifying as it is surprising. Mr. j
Covington, in the parish of St. Tammany, has
for years cultivated the Morus Multicaulus to
a great extent, and some ten or twelve plant
ers in that parish alone, have together 100,000
trees. The climate and soil are admirable for'
this culture, and Mr. C. believes silk will soon j
be a great article of commerce in that state. |
There recently, .arrived at New Bedford,
Mass, in one day, four vessels from the Pacific
Ocean, having on board upwards of nine thous
and five hundred barrels sperm oil, valued at
about two hundred and ninety thousand dol
lars.
A Good Yield. We learn from a eommu
nication published in the Savannah Republi
can, that Dr. Win. O. McConnell of Liberty
County, raised the past season, eighty-three
bushels, three jiccks and three quarts of corn
from one acre of manured ground.
The Augusta Constitutionalist of the Oth
inst. says, an agency of the Bank of Bruns- j
wick is to be located at that place, and that it!
will commence business in the course of a |
week or two.
The Standing Army. The following is
given in the Madisonian as the rank and file !
of the Executive standing army of office hold
ers in the state of New York. llow hardly
can the freedom of elections be maintained a
gainst the natural enemies of that freedom,
when their efforts are seconded by the as
saults of such an army of placemen, whose
daily bread, under the rule and reign of the 1
spoilers, is dependent on their partisan exer
tions:
1880 postmasters,
217 mail contractors,
69 clerks in the N. York post office,
25 light house keener?,
500 custom house officers.
These, says the Madisonian, constitute “a
regiment of the King’s own, well drilled in
the system of terrorism and seduction, and of
dragooning voters!”
The extensive coach manufactory of Messrs
Reynolds, Clark & Reynolds, and a dwelling
house belonging to Mr. John Strohecker, in
Charleston, were destroyed by tire on the 4th
inst., supposed to be the work of an incen
diary. The loss to the proprietors of the coach
establishment is stated to be §25,000 —only
SOOOO insured. No insurance on the house,
which was valued at 8 or SIO,OOO.
By the laws of Austria, no person can he ex
ecuted for any crime, not even for the most
clearly proved murder, without his caressing
his guilt. If he refuses to do so, when the
evidence is strong to demonstration against
him, he may be imprisoned, but he cannot be
sent to iiis eternal account with a crime un
confessed upon his soul.
Cherokee Emigration. The Cassville
Pioneer of the 30th ult. says, that two detacli
' ments of Cherckees left the week previous for
their homes in the far west, leaving but three
or four detachments, which will take up the
line of march in the course of a week or two.
The sick and the aged, the blind and the lame,
will remain until the rise of the waters, they
being unable to go by land.
The Prince de Joinville has sent a hand
some gold snuff box, enriched with diamonds,
to Col. De Russy, as a token of gratitude for
the hospitality he received from that officer
. while at West Point.
j The city of Mobile, from a census just ta
ken, contains 13,921 inhabitants, of which
| number 8,594 are whites.. The white males
| number 5,682 and females 2,705.
We witnessed, on Tuesday afternoon, the •
departure, in the steam packet Now York, for
Florida, of the detachment of U. S. troops,
brought out by the ship St Mary, from n!
York. They seem to be a fine body of men, 1
officered by young but gallant and enthusias- i
tic men—a fine specimen.of what West Point I
can turn out, and a good illustration of the f
beneficial tendency of that institution, w hen i
new troops are to be raised and officered, or •
commissions become vacant by resignation, j
While on this subject, we cannot but wonder
that our government does not go on to con- (
struct steam-boats for their own use, instead
of chartering from individuals, at a high rate, !
as it has done for four years past. It would
render a benefit to science and the cause of
improvement, and at the same time afford a
better medium of transportation than by boats
in which an adaptation to the purpose is not
studied. Such experiments as these, could;
only have a useful result.—[Sav. Georgian. '
BRUNSWICK ADVOCATE.
Tile of Wm. Stewart, whose trial
for Hedged murder of his father is
now going on in Baltimore Court, at
-1 tends her husband regularly every day,
watching, apparently with intense inter
est, the progress of the evidence, and be
traying, in her pale, emaciated and anx
ious but still beautiful countenance the
ravages, which the situation of her hus
i band is inflicting upon her constitution,
j Although the sittings of the Court have
been, several times, protracted until a
late hour, she has never left, for a mo
ment, the place which she has secured
beside him, and will probably, if nature
holds out, witness either his acquittal or
conviction. There is nothing on earth
more full of interest than sucli an in
stance of devotion. The constancy and
enduring love of woman have been the
themes of admiration in all ages, and
every day furnishes new proofs of the
justness of even the poetical eulogies,
which they have called forth. The sins
and crimes and errors which drive all
the rest of the world from the objects of
their affections, seein but to bind them
the closer to them, and the desertion of;
sunshine friends is but the signal for
newer, more resolved and more exclusive
devotion on their part.—The rhapsody of
Moore
“ I know not, I care not, if guilt's in that
heart,
“ I know that I love thee, whatever thou
art, - ’
seems to find not less warrant in real life
than in fiction. Whatever may be the
issue of the trial now pending, one can
not but believe that there must have been
something of good in the man who could
attach to him so strongly a young and
innocent woman. So often, however,
are the affections of women misplaced—
so frequently do we find the best and
most beautiful of them lavishing the trea
sures of their hearts upon totally unwor
thy *bjects, that there could, perhaps, he
no rule more unsafe than that which
would seek to infer the good character
or disposition of the husband from the
excellent qualities of the wife. Balt.
Chrnti.
The above trial occupied the close atten
tion of the Court for ten days. The jury, after
a deliberation of twenty-six hours, returned
with a verdict of “Guilty of murder in the
second degree.” The punishment under it is
confinement in the penitentiary for a term not
exceeding eighteen years.
The wife of the prisoner was in attendance
at Court throughout every stage of its pro
ceedings, watching with an intenseness of
interest which may be well imagined, the pro
gress of the case to its final issue.
Baltimore, Nov. 6.
Great Run by a Baltimore Clipper.
—The ship Ann M’Kim, captain Walk
er, arrived at this port yesterday, in the
quickest passage ever made from Chili.
She made the run from Coquimbo, one of
the copper ports, in six days to the Capes
during which site was becalmed seven
days between Coquimbo and Valparaiso.
She did not touch at the latter port, but
was in sight of land, and her passage from
thence to Baltimore was made in the re
markably short time of fifty three, (lays,
being, we believe, nine days less than the
run from Valparaiso to Baltimore has
ever before been made in. The Ann
M’Kitn is built very much like the mod
el, but on a larger scale, of the celebrat
ed schooner Yellott, one of the fleetest
vessels that ever spread a sail to the
wind.
When the Ann M’Kim left Coquimbo,
nothing was yet known there of the Chil
ian expedition against Peru, but captain
W. has full confidence in the account of
the capture of Lima.*

Savannah, Nov. 8.
Late from Florida. —By the steamer:
New-York, Capt. Wright, arrived yester
day from Garey’s Ferry, we have received ,
the following from our attentive correspon
dent:
Fort Hari.ee, (E. F.) Oct. 30. j
Mr. Editor—Accompanying this, I send j
you a copy of a general order, announc
ing the disposition of the troops for the
approaching campaign, —and extracts
from letters received from two officers of;
great intelligence.
Although Gen. Taylor feels very confi
dent that he can bring the war to a close;
by negociation, yet he is unwilling to trust
the wily savage; and his arrangements are |
being made w ith a view to avail himself of
the assistance of force, should it be found
necessary.
A letter from a friend at Tampa Bay is
received, giving the best news evet yet re
ceived; and his authority is of the highest I
value. He says, "a number of Tallahas-'
sees and Seminolcs proper are here; from
170 to 200, in families. Among them is
Euchee-thlocko-Euiathla, the prime minis
ter of the Tallahassees, and the family of 1
Echo-Emathla, king of that band. Sever
al minor chiefs are here; and a principal
sub-chief of the Mickasaukies, • named
Coosa-Tustenuggce, was recently in, and
gave a very reasonable and favorable talk.
He has since sent in a runner, to say, that!
by the full of this moon, he w ill be in, with
a number of his people, not to go out a
gain. Sam Jones is very sick, and per
haps, by this time, dead, and with his peo
ple, on his wav to this place, (Tampa.)—
lie sent in a runner to Cotza, (Alligator’s
step son,) to say, that he would maluj a I
large fire down the bay, when Cotza must
go out and meet him, and then etcortkim
in here. Should Sam Jones come in, or
die, the long agony is over. You perhaps
know, that I have never been sanguine;
perhaps less so than any officer in Flori
da; but 1 now think matters more favor
able than they have ever been before, and
I confidently expert to see most of all
those now out, on board ship, perhaps
earlier than March or April.”
The above is highly gratifying to Gen.
Taylor, and confirms all his favorable an
ticipations of the early settlement of this
infernal war. lie has succeeded in ship- j
ping every one of the Apalachicola In
dians, (about 280—say 90 warriors:) and 1
this is a most important point gained. It
will have a very strong influence on the ,
main point. Gen. Taylor’s grand talk,
according to all his arrangements, is to;
take place at Tampy Bay, on the Oth No
vember*
New Orlenas, Oct. 29.
Direct .Vacs of French Blockade. —lt seems
at length probable that the interminable!
question of the Mexican blockade is drawing
to a close. The French fleet, the departure ;
of which we announced long since, has by j
this time arrived in the gulf, and will not de- j
lay commencing its operations. The ship
Anais, from Bordeaux, lias arrived in our port, \
after a passage of 41 days. The captain has
had the kindness to inform us that while sail- j
ing near the northern extremity of St. Domin
go, he met the Medce frigate of 10 guns, I
commanded by Mr. Leray. The two vessels
sailed in company during two days. It ap
pears that the Medee not being so fast a sailer
as the other vessels composing the squadron,
had lagged somewhat behind.
From the information procured by the cap
tain of the Anais, it. seems that the French
fleet had sailed from Cadiz, and must ere this,
have arrived at its place of destination. The
Medce carries a hundred artillery men, and a
considerable quantity of light brdnancc, w hich
renders it probable enough that the bombard
ment of the fortress of St. Juan de Ullao is
not the only object in view, but that a descent
of troops is likewise contemplated. In a week
or two w e shall have definite information of j
all that transpires.
St. Augustine, Oct. ‘25.
We learn by the arrival of a gentleman
from Traders’ Hill, that a white man has been
taken in the Okefcenokc Swamp under suspi
cious circumstances. It is said that he was
discovered in the vicinity of an Indjan camp,
which from appearances, its inmates had pre
cipitately retreated, as a lire was burning and
meat cooking. He would give no account of
himself, except that he said he got lost in the
swamp.
It will be recollected that some time last
summer, a w hole family named H'itd, was mur
dered, w ith the exception of a boy about 10
years of age, who said he was suffered to
escape by a white man. The individual taken
is supposed to be the same, and the boy has
been sent for to St. Mary’s, in order, if possi
ble, to recognize him. The prisoner is in the
| custody of Maj. I.ooinis in the vicinity of
j Kettle Creek.
The Boundary Line. —We have already
treated of the correspondence which passed
between Sir John Harvey, Lieut. Governor of
i New Brunswick, and the Governor of Maine
| relative to this question. We now learn that
this survey has been commenced under the
' direction of Mr. Dean.
The persons employed were accompanied
J by a party of Indians and American citizens,
I and were seen at Madawaska in the begin
-1 ning of the month. Thence they proceeded
up Grand River, crossed the portage to the
Kistigouche River, and descending thence,
j they proceeded to the imaginary highlands
near the river St. Lawrence, where their ope
rations ccnnnenced.
The Frederickton Gazette expresses satis-1
faction at finding the object of this commis- j
s:on of survey to be nothing more than to as- j
certain by actual examination the practica
bility of running the Boundary Line accord
ing to the construction of the Treaty of
Ghent; and adds, that it were to be wished 1
that such an exploration had long ago been
made, a measure which might have divested
the question of its present difficulties.—[N. Y.
Herald.
A contrivance has been ii&ented through
the agency of which, it is stated, flax may be \
worked into cloth with the same facility as j
cotton. Heretofore among the great obstacles
to the general use of linen fabrics have been
the preparation of the material for the opera- J
tions of the spindle and the loom, and the
consequent high price demanded for the ma
nufactured article. It has been reserved for
American ingenuity to find out a method by
which these difficulties may be surmounted,
and an improvement,— to produce which the
imperial munificence of a Napoleon was ex
erted in vain,—has been the reward of the en
terprise of an American citizen. Every day’s
experience proves the peculiar talent of our
countrymen for practical science and the me
chanic arts, and goes to show the superiority
of free institutions in eliciting the powers of
the human mind. This superiority is to be 1
traced in all probability to the prevalence of.
education among the mass of our people as i
the only adequate cause. Theoretical know- j
ledge without practical tact is as useless as
facility in practice without some acquaintance
with theory, and it is only from the combina
tion of the two, which is to be found among
well educated working classes, that the ad
vantages of both can be fairly and fuHy exhi
bited. A company has been incorporated by
the Legislature of Pennsylvania for the manu
facture of linen goods according to the im- ,
proved method.—[Augusta Con.
