—Some two or three months ago, PiOth
child A Adams, of this place, had their store
broken open and three thousand dollars ta
ken therefrom. Suspicion pointed to two or
three colored men, for whom warrants were
issued, but having no positive evidence they
were discharged. One of the parties arrest
ed was Charlie Harris, a colored man of
this place, who was also examined and dis
charged, was several weeksaftei wards known
to have made several unusual large purchases.
Harris and George Putnam, soon afterwards,
started for Savannah for the purpose of pav
ing S3OO for the Steamer Carrie to take an
excursion party to Brunswick and Feruandi
ua. When they reached Savannah they were
arrested and lodged in jail. After keeping
them there for several days Harris confessed
the larceny and told where Jhe greater por

—The County Commissioners at their last
meeting, passed a resolution to have all of
their proceedings published, also their ordi
nances, Ac. This is certainly very wise and
judicious, for now, ignorance of the several
ordinances by violations of the law can no
longer be pleaded; and futhermore, the pub
lic will be more satisfied when they know the
proceedings of this body, and bow the peo
ple's money is spent. Let them, at their next
meeting, employ a Scavinger to clean up the
streets, remove all the old rubbish, dirt and
filth, thereby removing, in a great measure,
the cause whioh mrkes Darien sickly during
the summer and fall months.
—Owing to an unusual pressure of legal
business among our lawyers, and young men
the excursion to Brunswick is deferred to
snothar time. We regret exceedingly the
necessity of the postponement, for we were
anticipating much pleasure in our trip to the
•'City by the Sea.”

Proposed Railroad from Darien to
Waltliourville.
In speaking of the wealth, prosperity or
growth of a town, city or country, we natur
ally regard location, position, progress, means
of improvement, production and facilities,
for commerce.
About ten years ago, Darien was wantonly
laid in ashes by an invading army. Her cit
izens driven by stress of circumstances,
sought refuge in other sections of the State
and country. Peace being established, many
of them returned to survey the ruins which
remained.
Soon the plastic hand of industry and the
energy of perseverance began to raise the
fallen town from the ravages and destruc
tion of military marauders, and to-day risen,
like Phcenix trom its ashes, stands renewed,
redeemed aud independent of all opposition.
The first source of wealth upon which Da
rien may rely, is her location upon the Alat
am ah a. This mighty water facility for trade
spreads her arms far and wide-*-just think of
it—this mighty stream is fed by the Oconee,
extending up two hundred and fifty miles iu
the interior, coming down from that high el
evation, she is joined by the Ochmulgee; low
er down the Ohoopee joins her mighty sis
ters and forms the stupendous Alatamaha,
alias. Altamaha. This vast junction of wa.
ters reaches Darien, a child of fortune. Ves
sels from Darien reaches the Oconee by Do
boy outlet, a distance of eighteen miles,
where vessels of many sizes and description
ride safe at anchor, or pass on to the ocean.
The denominations of crafts are, barks,
schooners, ships, brigs, numbering twenty
sails in the month of January. The grand
total for the year, from January 1873 to .Jan
uary 1874 are 221 vessel ß —tonage, 100.499;
feet of timber, 49885,437; feet of lumber, 19,-
886,431; exported during the year to the fol
lowing ports—Liverpool, London, Amster
dam, Bremen, West Indies, South Amer
ica, St. Johns, N. 8., Boston, New York,
Philadelphia, Baltimore and other poits.
This is a character of commerce that must
necessarily come to Darien for transporta
tion.
And now, we add the vast wide spreading
lands accessible to the Alatamaha, and
abounding in pine timber of the very best
quality, and will furnish business and trade
amounting to millions of dollars per annum.
Let us speak of Darien ns to her prospects in
every respect. The health is usually very
good and when the warm weather comes on
there are retreats for health at the Ridge and
the Thicket, distant from three to six miles
from Darien. Here we enjoy the delightful
zephyrs from the south east, fresh and open
to the ocean. •
•In the town, we have a hotel that will com
pare favorably with any in the Southern
country—The Magnolia—managed by' Air.
Carr, presents every inducement to the
weary, the healthy, the gay or the grave, for
the proprietor has a good word and a hearty
welcome for every one who enters his retreat
of entertainment and comfort. His record
shows the average number of fifty visitors
per day, and every one leaves with the in
tention to cail again. iVarothu Iv. ..iding
houses, well kept, are always stored with
guests and many retire for want of room to
accommodate them.
To accommodate passengers to Brunswick
a small steamer, the Daisy, runs from Da
rien to a landing on the Glynn side of the
river, which is eight miles to station 1, on
the M. &. B. Road.
These and other consideration; strengthen
me in the desire to see a railroad connection
between Walthourville and Darien. First,
the feasibility. The Road connecting the
two points will not exceed twenfy-swo miles
it properly surveyed, ihe land over which
the track will pass is nearly a dead level
There will not probably be an excavation of
ten feet iu any part of the track, nor an ele
vation of six feet required. Two other points
may be suggested as proper for the junction.
Johnson’s station, No. 4i. This station is
thirty one and a half miles from Darien, and
so contiguous to the Alatamoha and passing
over several deep creeks and qu gin ires, to
gether with the backing of the river waters,
that the labor, expense and distance would
be at least fifty per cent, more 'ban between
Darien and Walthourville. Second, the
distance from Darien to Mclntosh station is
about forty miles and the track would run
through deep sand beds and swamps almost
impervious, beside having to cross two rivers
and other water courses.
I know there nre difficulties to be met in
the route between Darien and Walthourville.
The “Goose ponds” may be considered im
possible. This is a mistake, they often run
dry, and may be worked with ease, yet The
proposed road will probably pass at least
three miles north of these ponds. Xext, the
“Mortar swamps” are considered a great ob
stacle. They run into Bull town swamp,
which is crossed by the stage road from Darien
to Kiceborongb, and private citizens have
constructed causeways across these swamps
for their own convenience. More anon.
PROBONO PUBLICO.
—Randolph Aiken, the young man who
shot and killed Madison Owens, some five or
six months since, died with billious fever a
few days ago.
Bcbu Winton, Esq., of Brunswick,
and one of the best architects in the State,
called on us during the week. He reports
everything “all serene” in Brunswick, and
informs us that the P. G. in G., is as pretty
as ever.
We are informed that there was a fire
in Brunswick on Wednesday. Moses Mc-
Donald, the colored Tax Collector, had his
grocery store buried down. Lost every
thing in the store, together with papers be
longing to the Tax Collector’s office. The
Fire Engine was promptly on the spot and
saved several buildings.
Commnnicated]
Darien and Same of its Advances.
Tt possibly might have troubled George
Smith, the famous decipherer of Chaldean
Tablets, at the close of the war, to indicate
by the signification of ruins where once stood
the centres of trade and the busy mart of
Darien.
Like Ninevah, Darien too, was over
whelmed in destruction, and it needed all but
the energy of a Bayard or Sir Henry Rawlin
son to discover where once stood its tem
ples of worship, its commercial warehouse,
j its handsome stores, its comfortable and ea-
I pacious homes.
| Suffering, as a natural result, the devasta-
tion of war in common with the South, it
could point, like Atlanta, to its guant and
mournful ruins as monuments of its previous
prestige. With a commercial status sadly iu
contrast with its historic prosperity, the ad
vent of peace foqnd the city barely able to
claim a dignified recognition as a port of im
portance. But how' changed its condition ot
to-day ! Energy and enterprise have richly
reaped for our port those benefits which just
ly and happily reward their well directed ef
forts; and to-day, Darien ranks with the
foremost of all American cities as a timber
and lumber entrepot. The sites of destroyed
mills have been rehabilitated by mills of
greater capacity—daily distributing to the
ships that await it, hundreds of thousands of
feet of lumber, while the long line of booms
that stretch their length along the shores of
the Altamaha, teem with the seemingly inex
haustible supply of timber that this river
and its various tributaries furnish to the
needs of the world. To such extent has this
lumber and timber busines increased within
the last nine years, that the annual exporta
tion coastwise and foreign will fall but little,
if at all, short- of 100,000.090 feet, for the
current year. To carry this amount of pro
duct, a lare amount of tonage is requisite,
and wharf after wharf has been built at Do
boy and in its vicinity to meet the necessity
of safe and sufficient mooring to the fleet
that has entered for cargo—there being at
one time during the this present season up
wards of fifty large vessels in port. But not
alone in this branch of business has been il
lustrated the value of enterprise and sagaci
ty, for cotemporary with the steady enlarge
ment of this trade, we see repeated eviden
ces of prosperity amongst the dry goods and
grocery merchants, who, set!ling upon the
ruins of the old market places, have rebuilt
upon their foundations, aud renewed upon
their sites the scenes and excitements of a
busy avocation. Amongst them, daily, may
be seen the significancies of thrift and en
ergy. Bartering fir the products of the
country, and shipping iu return large stores
of supplies to the men who hew the timber,
distribution of the usual chandlery goods to
the ships in port, and the needful provisions
and implements to the adjacent farms and
plantations, arc but some of the indications
that mark the renewal of prosperity in old
Darien town.
In this hasty and cursory glance at the
signs of improvement, we cannot fail to no
tice particularly, the successful effort made
by one of our Cut uprising firms to present
to the community a business place, more
than usually attractive. Alongside their old
establisment, which occupies a part of Ihe
site of an ancient Tabby Block, Messrs. At
woods A Avery have erected a commodious
and handsome store that does credit to their
trade and enterprise, adorn the business cen
tre of the town, and one without disnarage-
ment, could occupy a place in business thor
oughfares of many a more pretentious port.
Here with ample stock of assorted goods,
ranging in variety from a paper of pins to a
set of bed room furniture, in a cool and airy
place, in a full and sufficient light, they' daily
offer, with the aid of active and polite coad
jutors, a full and pleasant response to every
needful call. This step in the march of im
provement is worthy of congratulation, and
must surely reap for its iuangnraiors a cor
responding harvest of value. Advertising
and enterprise des* rve success, (they do
more,) secure it.
Pleasant rumors of other i: ipr m nients
are assuming the shape of assurance, and we
hope, that ere long, many of the heaps of
rubbish that mark the spot ; where once
stood the temples dedie it<-,l to the “Living
God,” may have uplifted upon them, spires
of beauty that beautifully suggest the source
of every joy, and homes and hearthstones
within whose walls and in the gleam of
whose firelight maybe dispensed those genial
courtesies that once characterized this an
cient town as a p’ace of happy homes and
happy hearts.
