—OrR city was visited during the week by
a very refreshing rain, which was much need

atmosphere, and thirsty crops. We need a
show. r of rain at least once u week, in this
locality.
—The weather for the past two week has
been extremely warm, the thermometer rang
ing as high as ninety. Ice is, consequently,
in great demand. We have heard of no sun
strokes in this community as yet, and hope
that none will occur.

Brunswick, on Monday next, at which time it
is probable that the Church edifice lecently

We understand there will be a number of
visitors from this place and doubtless from
other localities in attendance. It will be a
meeting of much interest both to the clergy
and laity of that Church, and likewise to the
citizens of Brunswick generally.
—On Monday last, George M’Faxl, (col

—We understand that one of A. T. Pur
nams horses committed suicide on Tuesday
last, by walking deliberately into the river
off the wharf in this city. From all we can
learn it was a clear case of suicide. The
horse was hired from the stables of Mr. Pct
f.am. by a colored woman, to ride to the
Ridge and back—a distance of three miles —
and was allowed an hour in which to make
the trip, but instead of going to the Bidge.
she drove the animal to some place in the
country, and retuurner , making, we are told,
about thirty miles inside of two hours in
the heat of the day. When she delivered
the horse, he was found to be in an almost
dying condition, and, it is said, his groans
were sorrowful to listen to. He, apparently,
suffered great agony, as he was seen to walk
up to persons standing near, with a Avishiul
look, seemingly to ask for relief. He mo
mentarily grew worse, and perhaps, wishing
to end his sufferings, walked quietly across
the wharf, carefully stepping over some
ropes that were in his way. and plunged into
the river, ni-treatment of dumb brutes are
very common in this country, rend we think
that it would be a great benefit to man and
beast, if a -society for the prevention of cru

Communicated.)
A Great Outrage.
Mr. Editor:
A statement of the simple facts, will be
the best vindication of the above heading.
On of tli-.-2d of April 1374, the
store of Rothchiid A: Adams, in Darien, was
entered and a tin box containing thirty-one
hundred dollars, according to the sworn
statement of Rothchiid, was stolen from the
establishment. On the succeeding day, one
Charles Harris, a person of color, at the in
stance of Rothchiid. was arrested as the
thief. The prosecution failed to introduce a
sufficiency of evidence, to establish in the
mind of the Court, (Honorable T. P. Pease, 1
a reasonable suspicion of the guilt of the ac
cused, and Charles Harris was discharged.
Subsequently, Rothchiid was himself, ac
cused of the- crime; stood an examination,
and, by the sirens us efforts of able counsel,
was finally acquitted. During all this time,
his suspicions were constantly directed to
wards Charles Harris as the thief, and these
suspicions were finally confirmed by his
[Harris] spending large sums of money with
out any ostjr.ril le means of obtaining the
same legitimately. Charles Harris being in
Savnanah at the time, this suspicion resolv
ed itself into a certainty in the minds of
Rothchiid t Adams. Tin y had him and >ne
George Putnam arrested and lodged in Chat
ham county jail, where they remained for
several weeks, without any further charge or
accusation being made a. ainst them, and
without a trial.
It seems however, that they were frequent
ly interrogated privately, with reference to
the stolen money; and, finally, it appears,
that Charles Harris, while under duress, ac
knowledged that, ha had stolen the money,
and further, implicated severed respectable
colored y vs: us of this county, as p niir-ps
criminis with himself. Just here, omitting
further comments on the imprisonment of
Charles Harris and George Putnam, for so
long a time, without trial, comes in the out
rage, of which this community has a right
especially, to comp! tin.
It is known both judicially, before the
Court above stated, and extra-judicially, by
general rep rt in the c -mail . ity. from re
sponsible persons, that Charles Harris con
fessed his guilt to the prosecution ; that he was
brought under arrest, to this county by the
prosecution, and into the presence of the
Honorable Justice above named, and yet
what are the- results?
Charles Harris, the principal, —acknow
ledged thief and felon—is turned loose upon
the community, by this Court and by the
prosecution, ana at this writing is non est •in
ert,pcs, and the farce of a prosecution is in
stituted against such persons as he has seen
fit to implicate, by his so-called confession
This community, Mr. Editor, is astonish
ed at the Attorneys conducting this prosecu
tion. that they seemed to have no higher
sense of their duty as good citizens, in pros
ecuting this case than the recovery of the i
Ist mi y. without any reference to meet
ing out justice to the print ip -1 and avknowl •
edged crimin'.:!.
It is r.sf nisLing that th Court, represen
ted in the august person of the Chairman of
County Commissioners, should have so for-,
gotten its duty, as to allow the acknowledged j
thief when brought before it, to be spirited
away without bonds or prosecution.
If the Court was simply a “Jack Ketch.’ :
a detective, a hired emissary for the purpose !
of recovering the property of Rothchiid A
Adams, or the property of any one else who
has the misfortune to have it stolen, the
people could appreciate its action. But if it
is a Court created for the purpose of pi -
ing the people of the community against
crime, an lof vindicating the outraged ma
jesty of the law. they are at an utter loss to
account for its extraordinary course in this
whole matter.
CITIZEN' A’ TEMPO.
Death of Dr. S. W. Wilson.
Death in a community limited in numbers
as this is, can scarcely strike down any per
son so humble and insignificant that his or
her vacant place will not be noted or pain
fully felt. But when in his equal and unde
viating course he selects one. who has occu
pied so prominent and useful a place in life
as the subject of these remarks, the sense
of regret and ot loss is at once general and
profound. A little after midday on the 16th
of June the ini hi - ?e was conveyed froa
mouth to mouth that Samuel W. Wilson was
dead, and all felt that one of the most valued
citizens of Mclnt sh comity had passed with
in the veil Dr. Wilson, by birth, was a native
of Pennsylvania. He had been a resident of
this State however, between twenty and
thirty y- irs. and a resident ot this city since
1867. and was thoroughly identified in feel
ing and interest Avith the well being and
prosperity ot the community. For several of
the most troubled ye rs in the history of Da
rien he filled the responsible position of
Mayor of the City. At the time ot his death
he was Tax Collector of Mclntosh county,
and in the discharge of the duties ot this po
sition w-e venture to say that a more faithful,
trustworthy and efficient officer cannot to
day, be found in Georgia. Dr. Wilson was
a man of a high order cf intellect and of no
mean scientific attainments. In fact, his
general knowledge upon all subjects was re
markable. Asa physician he was most high
lv esteemed, and his practice was large and
lucrative. A man of strong and decided
feelings and opinions, he has lelt behind him
many warm friends, ihat there were those
ivho entertained different sentiments towards
him in life cannot- be denied. But we doubt
not that in his grave will be buried even
other than kindly feelings and remembrances
of him.
On the day after his death the solemn ser
vices of the Episcopal Church for the dead
were performed at his residence, and on the
same day Mr. John H. Hall, his executor,
conveyed his remains to Savannah to be bur
ied in' Laurel Grove Cemetery, beside hs
mother, according to the express provisions
of his will.

Our Fathers’ Sin.
It is amusing to listen to a group of con
versationalists giving their opinion on some
‘subject of which they are, evidently, little
informed. We once heard two University stu
dents talking “ship” and earnestly disputing
about what they termed the ‘spanking-sheet.’
A tutor, coming into the lecture-room, was
called on to decide the point. “My dear
boys” replied he, “I know nothing about
ships. You know, however, from experience,
that spanking is generally applied to the
stern. Y'ou may infer that the ‘spanking
sheet’is somewhere about the stern of a
ship.’’ A little knowledge pnffetb. up. But
this infirmity is not confined to groups; it
is common to mankind. The wise -some
times forget their wis Inn mil indulge in
like speculation. Indeed, those well-informed
in the merits of a erne, and who give not
mere opinions, but formulated opinions, as
for instance, judges in their written decis
ions often diverge widely in their conclu
sions. But reason is fallible. Just criti
cism is based on accurate knowledge. These
granted, human wisdom consists m studying
the logical effect of the premises educed by
criticisin from knowledge, ail then by adopt
ing the proper means to effect the desired
ends.
Wen verence bur official fathers, the Com
missioners for Mclntosh comity, but we must
confess. sub rosa. that they arc not s > wise in
their generati ai as v.-.is Solomon in his. And
yet the wvrld is several thousand years older 1
But while avc reverence the office we would
avoid their example as inconsistent with
knowledge arid wisdom. We fear that they
are not renders, not posted with the progress
of the age elsewhere. Have th°y studied
the interests of the city and county; aware of
the nature of the trust committed to their
charge, andforwhi -h they are, at least, mor
ally responsible? Or are they acting with
little knowledge and chiefly on impressions ?
This is not a Rip Van Winkle age. Every
one is alive to his individual interests. The
payment of taxes is part of individual inter
est. Where do the taxes go, having been
paid? Are they insufficient? It cannot be,
or why not an increase ? Why do we speak
ot taxes and self-interest ? Simply because
other self-interest is connected with taxes.
People do not come here to populate the
town, but to make m >ney. Thyv pay taxes.
In return they demand that proper sanitary
measures should insure health; tiiat their
liA-es aud property should be protected; that
■ ( pnbl and roads s
in repair and be made attractive, and so on.
Our “Fathers” have been a. long time in of
jfice and, as yet, h are given us only an effi
cient police. All honor for this. Herein
they have shown wisdom. But they L ive
manifested so much ignorance or inertness
in others matters that we have concluded to
study tLe sf-ituatiou for them, and to call
their attention to a few facts for their seri
ous and liberation. A duty neglected is a sin.
We, therefore, ask our revered ‘Fathers’ to
'•q-.ent of these the : r sine, of omission or r><
!c t. and by their good work, hr the prem
ia s. receive the absolution aud blessing of
[r < mslitu ;nts. We ennm it - ese sins,
reserving comment aud advice to other oc
casions.
We ask for first, clean streets and opened
ditches about town. Second, the draining
ol the swamp back of the Ridge. Third, a
past house for small-pox and other epidemic
patients. Fourth, sufficient apparatus to
extinguish any conli-igration in the city or
on the Ridge. Fifth, the enclosing of the
public squares, and every necessary improve
ment aud einbelishment of the streets. Sixth,
is a Board of Health to have a weekly exam
ination ot ail habitations, au.l disinfectants
used when required. These for the present.
This is a small list of sins, hut how gic-at,
■how weighty the sins themselves ! Cease to
do nothing, learn to do good. Quosque tar
dera abutore. palres conscripti, patierdia nostra ?
X. Y. Z.
Sociables.
We do hope our young people, both sin
gle and mamvd, will inaugurate a season of
“Sociables” during the summer months.
The days for “pie-nicing” hare passed and
we will have to content ourselves with such
home pleasures as we may hereafter be able
to inaugurate amongst ourselves. It has ever
been a matter of surprise to us that we have
so few social pleasures in our ci*y, we mean
social gatherings. We know from our own
experience what delightful occasions might
be had fioru what we have seen of our peo
ple when assembled together. Can’t we in
augurate a season of “surprise sociable.-;”
private theatricals, (we have, the material)
c-fficerts, or something to while away the
dull days of summer ? We hope so. Who
will be the first one t a set the “social move
ment in motion ?
The above is from the Griinn Xi ics, and
we heartily endorse its ideas on the inaugu-
I ration of summer amusements and would
be glad to have the young people of our cit%
also get up something that would tend to
‘drive dull care’ from onr midst during the
season.

The Railroad Again.
In onr last communication, wc showed,
that so far as timber is concerned, that the
supply was inexh.instable aud the means for
transporting unequalled by any section of
the State. That the amount received and
transported during the year eighteen hun
dred and seventy-four exceeded one liundr. 1
mil':’, is off, fof 1 wed timber which at
ih- rate of sl9 per thousand amounts to
a 1.200.M0. The statist! s of this year shows
a wonderful increase in th.e amount of ton
age. The first quarter (three months) equalled
the amount of last year. The exports of
this year will, no doubt, trible the nmoun*
of the preceding year.
Iu other respects, the thrift of Darien
clearly demonstrated, in the first place, that
the failure of a merchant in this town is an
event of rare occurrence. It is hard to point
to one. Many of the largest merchants now
doing business iu this place were, a few
years ago, counter-clerks. One house, which
three y sirs ago, commenced business witli a
capital of seventy-five dollars, now controls
a capita! ia merchandise to the amount of
$20,(m0.
In our previous communications we have
sh iwn the prosperous and promising pros
pects o( Darien. It may be asked what has
this to do with a railroad? Much every way.
Time is money, and the facilities for trans
portation and inter-coniuiunication, by
means of a railroad go far to quicken trade
and success in business.
To illustrate—suppose a merchant hears
a large amount of goods, is to be sold in
Savannah, then after he gets the informa
tion be can take the train aud in six hours
be in Savannah aud attend to his business
and return the same day, having accom
plished his purpose with ease and pleasure.
The advantage of another depot at Wal
th lurvilla is readily perceived, and may be
discussed iu future days.
Several years ago the writer was in Sa
vannih, and at the request of Dr. Screven,
made him a call, and spent, several hours
with him iu his office. The conversation
was chi y on the prospect of a rail con
li m v.;th Darien to Savannah. His faith
as to the uti’ity and practicability of the
sti mi was very strongly ex
press! i. \Y ail had faith in his judgment.
Dr. Screven soon af.er made ns a visit,
and speu two days and nights with us, and
on the second day of his sojourn here h
gave us a long and impressive address on
the subject. We had a very large turn out
and very many were then desirous to go to
work. The people (foo many of them) lacked
faith. Tlie war soon came on, and all was
knocked into pie. We still" say there are
greater incentives now to prosecute the
work, than there ever were, and with a “long

RROBONO PUBLICO.
Who Made The Most ?
Mr. Editor:
Usually a small theft or crime passes nn
notic 1 in our community—save by our offi
cials—but so prominent hits become the
case of Rothchiid & Adams vs. themselves
and others, that it is a query with the talk
ing portion of our city as to avho has made
the most out of the job—the decendauts of
Ham , who stole—the followers of Gamaliel
wh > were paid to find, or the decendeuts ot
Abraham who lost the money ?
