’ BRUNSWICK.
The Brunswick Appeal of the 8th instant con
tains part of an address to the Memphis Com
mercial Convention to be held on the 18th inst.,
from Hon. James Houston, Mayor of the city!
in which he sets forth the advantages of that
port as the Atlantic terminus of the Son them
Pacific Railroad. Mr. Houston proposes to nse
the contemplated Brunswick and Albany road,
and to run from Albany to Eufanla, and thence
to Montgomery, where the road will connect

Of Bmns wick he says:
The first great natural advantage is tho depth

wide. The Baraffords from seventeen to eigh
teen feet at ordinary low water, and from twln-
ty-threo to twenty-four feet at ordinary hieh
water. I speak of the average rise and fall of
the tides. Tho extreme rise on sprino tides
gives from twenty-four to twenty-aeven feet—a
sufficient depth to admit tho largest vessels that
are afloat. The channel over tho Bar is wide,
straight and plainiwfnirked, and
easy and perfectly [safe durii
gales. This depth of water is, indeed, a great
anddecidod ^vantage,.and will certainly have its
legitimate effect in determining the location of
the Atlantic terminus of the Pacific road.
To see and fully appreciate the force of this
advantage, we have only to compare the depth
of water with that found at other points It is
far superior to that of Hew Orleans, Mobile, 8a-
vannah, Charleston, or any other prominent
point on the Gulf or Atlantic coast 8outb of Nor
folk, and about equal to that of New York. An
important consideration, in connection with *bi.
advantage, is the fact that every vessel thst can
cross the bar, cum sail immediately np to and dis
charge the entire cargo on tho wharves thst will
lino the harbor.: No vessel will ever be forced
to submit to the heavy and unnatural expense
of lighterage and tonnage, to which all vessels
of heavy draft are subject at Savannah, and some
other points. Neither will the passengers, oven
those on the *— * *
l steamers, to say noth
ing of those on the small ones mnning to New
York, ever be subjected to tho delay, impatience
and vexation, resulting from being forced to
wait for the tide for sc feral hours, within sight
of the city, as some of you have, no doubt, ex
perienced in the river at Savannah.
The second great advantage is tho harbor,
which is, indeed,'one of the beat on tho globe.
It is in the form £($ crescent, completely land
locked, perfectly seefire during tho most violent
gales, and sufficiently capacious to afford anch
orage to the combined fleets of tho world. It is
no little narrow contracted stream or basin; bnt
a broad and beautiful expanse of water, as salt
and as pare ss the briny ocean itself.
Tho third great advantage is, tho beauty and
healthfulncss of the location. There is not
mote beattttfnL dt a refers healthy location for
a large city to be found in this, or any other
country. The city is situated on a high and
dry point of land, coy
magnificent growth of
her, and is surrounded on all sides by extensive
bodies of salt water and salt marsh, and tho air
iK, consequently, most pore and bracing. Tho
city lies within fnll view, and is perfectly open
to the broad and majoafio Atlantic srbftos surf,
daring tho still hours of the night lolls ex
hausted nature ter a calm and peaceful repose.
The sea breeze, which is regularly and con
stantly wafted in, so tempers the host daring
the summer months that it is delightfully ana
surpassingly cool and pleasant. <

ever to protect themselves and their families
from disease, and the filth and squallor that
generate it They will not work, unless their
necessities force them to do so, and they never
see or feel any such necessities whilst the alter
native of stealing is within their reach. They
have no ides of the provident use of money, so
that when they get it, cither by labor or by theft
through charity, they buy with it neither
wholesome food, nor clothes to keep themselves
and their families comfortable.
Of course they are continually getting sick,
bnt, in eases of sickness, they have no resort for
relie,. They have no owners to look to their
weifare, they ha ve no money to pay a physician,
and, whatever the dise,«e mav be. whether one
that kills in an hoar or one that kills in a week
or month, they have only to let it take its course,
and are bo far gone in paganism as not to be able
to offer prayer to heaven. Even in Charleston,
where they are least exposed, and where, by
some means or other, they ran generally man
age to obtain medical treatment, there are more
than twice as many deaths of negroes as of white
persons, although the negro ponnlation is less
than tho white; and in the country districts, as
reason would infer and as facts attest, the pro
portionate mortality of the negroes is twice as
great as in Charleston and the rest of the
But it is not mortality alone which re -
dneed to an alarming extent the number of ne
groes available for work in the cotton fields.
The negro women, who once were good field
hands, and who endured work as well as the
men, have got above the business. They «hinV_
and tho men think, that women should remain
at their homes and not work out of doors for a
living, and this wonld be all well enough if the
men could support them, bnt the men scarcely
support themselves, and, in many if not in most
cases, do not even attempt it. And, to aggra
vate tho wretched condition of both the blacks
and the whites, the officers and emissaries of (h *
Federal Government step in with their accursed
politics. They are responsible for much of the
evil that exists. The Charleston News says
the negroes, after many trials and hardships,
woro becoming pretty well convinced, that, with
out work, they could not live and eat and sleep,
and were, consequently, ready to work tolerably
well and were doing so, bnt that, for some time
last, they have been filled with the hope, that,
f they do what they can in tho Badical cause,
some office, big or little, an office sufficient to
support them in their laziness, will fall to their
lot, and tb it, at the worst, they ms join the
Stato militia and shoot Democrats. No reason-

ideas out of their heads.—Courier-Journal.

markably healthy. Dise&ao con never generate
in air so pare as that fonnd at Brunswick. Yel
low fever, that groat seonrge and t<$kor of the
South, can never exist at Brunswick. During
the awful visitations of the years 185 t and 1886,
not a single case occurred at Brunswick,
although constant communication was kept np
with Savannah, Darien and SL Marys, at all of
which tho yellow fever raged with fearful and
unparalleled violence. In truth, many persons
flocked to Brunswick daring those years as to a
place of refuge ; and liko flic Israelites of old,
they were safe from all harm.
Those who have seen and felt tho withering
and bloating effects of yellow and other malig
nant fevers upon tho commercial interests of
Southern cities can readily discover and appre
ciate tho importance of a healthy location in es
tablishing the terminus of the Atlantio and Pa
cific. Road. If it be established at a point sub
ject to yellow and other malignant fevers, ves
sels wiU not visit it only at exorbitant rates of
freight; and if tho trade be brought to the point
it cannot be taken care of for men will not en
danger their lives in looking after it. Bruns
wick is peculiarly blessed in this particular-
vessels can visit the port with impunity at all
the year, fud they eaglrly seek for
xhen they reject
in
bringing emigrants to tho States of tho South
and West, for they can safely land on the
wharves at Brunswick throughout every month
of the year, which cannot be done at any other
point on the whole Southern seaboard.
*Tho dimate of Brunswick is-unequalled by
that of any other point in our whole country—
it is not too cold in winter or too warm in sum
mer. We have many points that are used as
summer resorts and many as winter resorts, but
Brunswick is the only point, perhaps, that can
be used as both. Brunswick is neither burnt np
in summer or frozen up in winter; and business
can, therefore, bo successfully done throughout
tho entire year, and this fact most and will pow
erfully tell in her future history.
’ The fourth great advantage is, the position of
Brunswick with regard to the timber producing
section of tho South. She is situated in tho very
heart of the country that produces the best ship
building timber on the globe, and as a point for
tn«t business far surpasses any other in the
country, North or South. Owing to the climate
and healthy location, ships can be built at much
less cost at any other point- It has been
established by actual experience that a man can
do more labor during the year in a ship yard at
Brunswick *h ftTi ho can do in ono in any of tho
Northern States; and this is in accordance with
reason flT| S the nature of things—at the North
little or no work can be done for several months
on acoonnt of the severity of the cold, while at
Brunswick a man can work comfortably during
the entire year. The contiguity of the timber,
and the climate and healthy location, will give
Brunswick a very decided advantage in ship
building, and the people of the West and South
largely engage in it- <|| ^a*.

When Napoleon I married the Archduchess Ma
ria Louisa, he issued a decree, in his own mili-
itary and absolute fashion, that 6000 soldiers
who had earned half-pay should be married to
girls in their respective communes, and he fixed
toe dowry of toe^oung ladies at lrfW fmncs in
Paris, and GOO francs elsewhere. At Strasbourg,
ten of these marriages took place; aU the au
thorities of the town were present, toe newly
married ionples were invited to the theatre, and
gloves, bouquets and carriages were furnished
by the municipality. In the evening there was
’ a banquet, at which toe Emperor and his flew
Austrian wife were toasted. Of the ten girts
married on April 23, 1810, widow Wilhelm was
the last survivor. Napoleon had a wonderful
tpste for marriages, and at ono timo he con-
oeived toe idea of taking every heiress in the
country for his most distinguished officers,
which would have been an economical way of
recompensing gallantry.
Heath of Joseph Addas
On yesterday morning it was rumored on toe
streets that Joseph Atkins, a notorious scalawag
and Senator in toe Georgia Legislature from the
Warren District, had been killed on toe previous
day in Columbia county. By toe mail of yes
terday evening letters were received in this city
from that county giving toe particulars of toe
tragedy. It seems that some tone since, when
the Legislature was in session, Atkins wrote a
veiy insulting letter to a respectable lady living
in Dealing, Colombia county. On Monday
morning Atkins, accompanied by bis wife, got
off the cars and remained a short while in
Dealing.
When about to get in a buggy to leave the vil
lage, A. was approached by a man with but one
leg, an only brother of the young lady whom A.
had insulted, who said to Atkins: '“I am in
ession of that letter, and demand satisfac-
for it.” At this remark A- put his hand be
hind him to draw a pistol, and Adams, being
unarmed, attempted to borrow a weapon, but
unsuccessfully. It seems that here Mrs. Atkins
interfered and persuaded her husband to leave
i place on foot with her, the baggy being left
charge of a negro boy. After proceeding a
mile itom town, Mrs. A. returned, and, entering
the vehicle, was driven off by toe negro to over
take her husband. Some time after this had
id, Mr. Adams and two other gentlemen,
_ Dealing for their homes in the country,
overtook and passed the Atkins party two miles
and a half from toe village.
Atkins and toe negro were walking together
in advance, toe latter with a cocked revolver in
his band, while toe buggy was driven behind by
the female. This was toe last seen of the Sena
tor until after fire tragedy. Some timo after
peering Sturgis' ill 11 two gun shots were heard,
and the alarm being given, parties repaired to
the spot, end found that Atkins had been shot
and mortally wounded. The wounfis were made
by a shot gun, and toe wounded man stated that
he was shot from the cover of a tree by one of
the Ada
and toe Hi
road. In contradiction to this, both Mb -wile

Tn Putnam’s
Affair* in the Old Capital.
A Milledgeville correspondent of the Federal
Union says:
I look aronnd often and ask myself toe ques
tions, What have we lost? and where are the
visible signs of decay which promised to follow
tho removoal of too Capital from our midst f
There are no vacant store rooms on any of our
business streets, and every private residence in
side of the corporate limits is occupied. Our
merchants are doing a safe and profitable busi
ness—better, by far, than they did in days of
yoro when we were wont to have the assembled
wisdom of Georgia bionnially in our midst The

aoks and jennies has suffered severely, and
>le and popular friends (Bob and
Sam) McComb, have less company at their com
modious hotel than in ante bdlum days, bnt
aside from these exceptional’icoses, I cannot see
any diminution of the prosperity and liveliness
of the placo.
We havo not given np the Capital yet; and
while there is a shot in too locker, we intend to
fire it at tho authors of that monstrous fraud
imposed on the peoplo, and particularly our
own, by Builock and his carpet-bag regency.
Wo are stripping for the fight, and I assure you
when the next election for members of toe
Legislature takes placo in Georgia, we will have

“The Radical Party the most Corrupt
that ever Cursed the Laud.”
The above caption is from an article of the
New York Herald, from which wo copy tho fol
lowing condensod paragraph:
•“The fact has become patent that the Repub
lican party is toe most corrupt that ever cursed
our land. Daring too war its leaders fell upon
too national treasury and toe publio credit like
so many ravenous wolves. Their jobs and job-
i’n too way of army contracts, in the sale
of rotten old bulks for transports, in the build
ing of new war vessels that proved shells or
abortions, and in everything connected with
supplies, including provisions, clothing, forage,
hospital stores, and soon to the end of toe
catalogue, for toe use of too army and navy,
wero enough to appall any other than the Ameri-
lo. These depraved and hungry lead
ers, witn appetites for the spoils of office still
lingering in their insatiable maws, have now fas
tened upon the Senate of toe United States, and,
with an avaridousness that spams all compro
mise, reason and control, demand that no ap
pointment shall be made without their having
a finger in the selection. In tho homely phrase
of a Western Senator, they are persistently
“dingdonging” every member of that body; and,
it is mortifying to acknowledge, they have in
that body fnends and confreres as corrupt as
themselves, who are ready and are employed to
do their bidding in making Indian treaties,
lowing enormous grants of land for private pur-
1, and engaging in other scandalous practi-
besidos encouraging fraudulent appoint
ments to office.
Business and Expenses of the Georgia

I $28,000 of this amount already, leaving only
$7000 to pay tho expenses of the House. Mr.

toe Oriental style. A broad verandah made a
most refreshing shade, and as she offered us a
A;«b of edible bark (a little like slippery elm,

dignity were singularly pleasing. She seemed
some pastoral goddess, bom to rule her subjects
with love andgentleness, andindeedahe is such.
Her only coronet was of wild flowers, which are
very generally worn here by both sexes, and
most becomingly so. Chains of flowers and
berries hung about her neck also, giving out an
agreeable odor. There was no formality ob
