Savannah Convocation.
Mr. Editor:
Presuming that some of ycur readers may
desire to tie informed of the proceedings of
the Episcopal Convocation, which met in St.
Marks Church in Brunswick last week, I
will attempt to describe them as briefly as
possible. The religions services began on
Tuesday morning with a sermon by the Rec
tor of the parish, the Rev. Mr. Boone. Rev.
Mr. Stanley, ot Savannah, preached at night.
On Wednesday morning the sermon was
by the Rev. Dr. Babbitt of Albany, and the
Holy Communion was administered, after
which, the Dean, the Rev. Dr. Benedict of
St. John’s Sav., opened a business session.
There were, present of the clergy, besides
those above named, the Rev. Dr. Clnte, Sec
retary, and the Rev. Mr. Dunlop, 'the mis
sionary of the Convocation. The Lay Dele
gates present were.Mr. John B Habersham,
of St. Mark’s, Brunswick, and Col. E. S.
Barclay, of St. Andrew’s, Darien. The mis
sionary made his report wherein it appears
that, during the past year, as the result of
his labors, the Bishop has consecrated two
churches, and that another had been dona
ted. The several congregations are increas
ing and now number 169 communicants. The
work has progressed so rapidly that the mis
sionary cannot give the necessary attention
to so many points.
The Standing Committee on missions con
sisting of Revs. Clute and Stanley and W.
R. Giguilliat, Esq., offered a lengthy report,
and a series of resolutions, iu substance as
follows:
Ist. That the present missionary retain
such portion of his field as he may elect,
another missionary to take charge of that re
signed.
2d. That an evangelist be appointed to itin
erate through the western portion of the
Convocation and supply such ministrati ns
and church literature as may be needed.
3d. That tie several Rectors perform such
missionary work as may be required by the
Dean, and not interfere with parochial du
ties. Also to report any missionary work
performed within the limits ot their par
ishes.
4th. The Wardens of St. Mark’s were ap
pointed a committee to obtain abstracts of
title to the property of dormant parishes of
St. David's, Glvnncounty aud (Jurist church,
and St. Simon’s Island, and report to the
standing committee next November.
oth. All reports are to be sent to the
standing committee one week before the
meetings of the Convocation.
It was found that a great a ..u 1.;. 1
been m ule on the work of the preceding
year, and that the exigencies of the case de
manded *he additional force recommended
by the committee, whose resolutions were
unanimously adopted. The parishes are ex
pected to make generous collections to en
able the Conv -cation to support the addition
al mi.ssi nailios.
On Wednesday night th 11 dor of Darien
preached. On Thursday morning, aft r
prayers, the business s* don was resumed
and some unimportant woik finished, ihou
followed u public discussion on the ••Sunday
School System. ’ iu whii a- v ral of t.:o
clergy and laity pr-rtici; ted. Tin gc-Kon.’,

inexperienced teacher, tli spiiitual educa

that the Sunday S hool mi,;': t be an i list ru
st rumen t for good, it tae clergyman wonul
be the superintendant and employ only such
teachers whom he knew to be well-fitted for
the religious instruction of children. One
speaker urged that parents and sj ms rs
should instruct their own children, and that
th? pastors should be vigilant that they at
tend to their duties by a frequent examina
tion of the children; that those whose pa
rents were ignorant or so situated that they
could not instruct them, should send them
to near localities where teachers might be
provided for them. Another suggested pa
rochial schools, on the German plan, where
religious and secular education were com
bined. The debate was spirited and edify
ing to the audience. At night there was a
missionary meeting, when addresses were
made by toe missionaries, the Dean, and the
Rev. Drs. Babbitt, and Ciute. Tiie Offertory
was liberal. On Friday morning the Rev.
L)r. Benedict preached. Thus closed the
most interesting and encouraging sessions
of the many since the organization ot the
Convocation. _

A Puzzle.
On a recent visit to Brunswick. I was in
formed that the business of the place was
generally dull, and compared with that of
Darien, as a place of export, trifling. And
yet I was amazed to behold a large town
with 2500- inhabitants, having beautiful
houses and churches, and with broad and
clean streets, and many signs of improve
ment, and so very far in advance of our ow n
citv where such au immense businsssisdone
in both the export of timber and the home
trade. Wherever I went the tables were
bountifully supplied, while here it is difficult
to purchase a variety of food. There every
body was gay and sociable, and vehicles
bowling along the shell-road every evening.
Here there is little visiting; most of us keep
confined in our houses or offices, and ttie
only drive is the sandy avenue to the Ridge
over which r.t the close of busiu- ss hours,
the Ridgites travel at a 9:40 rate. The puz
zle is, how do the Brunswick people live and
enjoy life on little ostensible means, while
those in Darien with abundant resources are
content with shanties (with few exceptions'
for houses and stores, one plain meeting
house, poor fare, dirty streets and no public
improvement? Is it the fault of our city
government, of the citizens or 6f nobody ?
I prefer Darien, but I wish we had the go-a
head-ativeness of Brunswick. It is your du
ty, Mr. Editor, as the public monitor, to in
vestigate this matter and notify us of any
errors on our part. Let u* mend.

My Pleasure Trip.
I was very kindly invited by Col. B. and
his charming wife to join them in a pleasure
trip up the Satillu river. We enjoyed a
most delightful time. The scenery of that
river is lovely, in fact, it is so fascinating
that one does not know on which side to
look at first, for.fear one may loose sight of
some part of the beautiful landscape I of
ten thought it a great pity that I could not
have four eyes that I might view both shores
at the same time. But it was of no use to
wish, I could not get them, and I had to
content myself with admiring each as I went
and returned. We made our debut iu Brun
swick on Saturday evening. Before I pro
ceed to relate the adventures of my pleasant
week in the "city by the sea” I must speak
a few words about the steamer Carrie. My
friends were highly pleased with the neat
ness and comfort of such a small boat. The
table was plentifully furnished aud iu great
variety, aud everything cooked so nicely,
one could not help enjoying the meals. The
Captain and Purser were very gentlemanly
and entertaining to .T. and myself. The
Stewardess and waiters weie very polite and
kiu h We recommend the Carrie for com
fort and pleasure. Now for Brunswick. 1
don’t believe that I ever spent a week so
pleasantly in my life. It is true that the
“Convocation” was held most of the time,
but did not prevent niv taking walks and
driving on the Shell Road every evening.
On the 24th I witnessed the Masonic parade
aud heard an able address before the Lodge,
in the Baptist church. At night we attend
ed the Masonic Bull, which w;.s a great suc
cess. It seemed queer to see some people
attend church in party costume and then go
to the dance. I had every attention shown
me, and spent my other time in returning as
mauv calls as possible. I was very sorry, in
deed, that my friends were taken suddenly
ill during the night and were not able to re
turn with us on Friday morning. I was very
sorry, too. that I could not get- sick aud re
main villi them, as I had fallen very much
in love with Brunswick—it is so full of life
and enjoyment. I was reluctant to leave,
but promised to return soon. I have been
requested tp write this account of my pleas
ure trip, but lest it become wearisome to
your readers, now close.

Poking Fun.
I have r> a I t’.c several numbers of your
paper with much inti rest. I have come to
the conclusion that we have the most face
|
tions community within the State. We have
had several communications urging the con
struction of a railroad 'which would never
pay home investment' at the expense of those
v.’. want to lose money. An idea strikes
me. L t the city auihoiitios iSsue bends
for half a million dollars and complete the
road. Then we have another communion- j
tion takin ; the venerable cL;< f magistrate.
v dido chief justice, the pr scenting attor
tor.cy, of which there, seem to be four, and
the entile and festive force to task for not ar
te-ting a e-.-nfAss .; thief because heicstored 1
the- miiney: as if iLe money was not of more ,
ha; io.uk " than the thief. Why half the
felonies d.w-iml.ivs are compounded, and
lav s Lave made this a criminal act because
it deprives Courts and lawyers of so much
f es. If the despoiled will not appear against
the despoiler, “what are you going to do
about it?” Worse than all, several of your
correspondents are poking fun at the County ,
Commissioners, asking them in substance:
How is your health ? Where do you drive
your mule ? How many buckets full of wa- 1
ter carried from the river to the old Court
House would have extinguished the flames?
How long would it have taken, and why :
didn’t they do it ? What are the town mud-.
puddles scented with oti.-.r, of roses or the
essence of etrammonimn ? Where are all 1
those streets and squares so elegantly ar- j
range lon the map of the ciu ? flow imper
tinent ' as if our city magnates had not in
sured the health of the town, thoroughly j
cl- aned the greets and provided for the pro
tection > f property. Let the grumblers try
the situation and experience the like unjust
criticism. Ungrateful, prodigal children !
Would they have all bread, and no stones?
I would suggest to the County Commission
ers that these Bohemians be made to do
their official duties as proxies; then they
could work without honor, as a punishment
for their officionsness. Someone wrote
about the failure to buy a hearse, and de
clared such failure am illustration of the
want of energy and interest of- our citizens
in public improvements ? Why, who on
earth is iutcrested in such an improvement?
What is the use of having a hearse continu
ally - before youreves reminding you that all
your money-makiug, your pleasure-going,
your turtle soup and bad whisky has got to
i ome to this: that having enjoyed the good
things of this life, yo :; must become coffin
me it vonrself? X > wonder we have no en
i ergv or interest; this illustration is enough
to destroy what little we have; I wish your
; correspondent had a little m >re knowledge
i of human sensitiveness and a little more
wis Urn than to be poking fun on so grave a
subject. Fudge!

MARINE DISASTER!
Wreck of the Steamer Clyde-No Llres
Lost.
• Statement of Captain Day.
In .’.other column will be found some ed
itor.. uWßts on the wreck of the steam
er Civ do We give here, in his own words,
Captain Day s account of the disaster, the
subsequent escape of the crew from a watery
grave, and their arrival iu this city. The
Captain says :
On Saturday, June 27th 1874, pursuant to
orders from the owners of the steamer Clyde,
I left Darien for Savannah and proceed as
far as Sapelo Sound. The sound was pretty
smooth, and there was no appearance of a
storm. I therefore, proceeded to cross. Just
after passing the first buoy, I discovered a
small cloud in the southeast, which was pre
ceded by a very heavy wind, and in less than
five minutes we had its full force. I used
the precaution, however, to put the helm
hard down aud put her head on, at the same
time casting the anchor to assist the engines
in keeping the boat from blowing on the op-
posite beach. This blast lasted only for two
or three minutes when it beeame perfectly
calm, past giving time for the tide to swing
the steamer so that the second blast, which
came from the opposite direction, (north
west) caught her starboard broad side, and
iu one minute’s time, turned the boat bottom
up, dashing myself, officers and crew into
the water. H iving no notic of the trouble
ahead, none were prepared, notwithstanding
there were plenty of life preserving applian
ces on board. When I came to the surface,
I found some of the crew on portions of the
floating wreck, and others propping up around
it until all were on something, which would
keep them above the surface. I soon dis
covered the yawl boat among the floating
wood, cotton, ete., and by.the assistance of
the Second Engineer aud Mate, we turned it
right Mile up aud bailed it out and gathered
some pieces of strips, which were floating
around and used them iu place of oars, aud
proceeded to take up those that were in the
most danger of being lost, leaving those
that were on good rafts until we could get
the rest on shore. Not being able do to much
pnlliog with the strips we were substituting
for sculls, the rafts made the beach soon af
ter tLe boat had landed, except one raft with
two men drifting in the direction of St. Cath
eiine s Island, and which is supposed to have
lauded there all light The rest of us re
mained on Blackbeard Island until Sunday
morning. Then the two Engineers and my
self started for assistance to a ship which
we saw anchored iu Mud river, about seven
or eight miles distant. We reached it about
10 a. in., aud found it to be the ship Me
liecete, Captain Dunn commanding. Iu
Capt. Dunu, we met a kind ejad true hearted
gentlemen, who did everything in his power
to make us comfortable—giving us plenty to
eat and replacing the many shoes, hats, and
I other articles that we had lost in the water.
He . ■ sent nrs boat iu search of the two
‘ ii.kE. '"L ■:!lifted*toward St Catherine's la
' land, but ha ins every- reason, after search
was r.ifd?. i helie- e that they had lauded
j on the Island safe, returned to the ship
' about night SundayV After giving us a
I good night's rest, Captain Dunn, Monday
morni.ig early, l. ’.d sail boat lowered and
; brought us up to Darien. For none of the
many deeds of kindness would he have anv
pay. On reaching Darien the good citizens
! did all for us thut could be done—supplying
us with many articles in the way of clothing,
, food and lodging.
1 The Captain informs us that the Clyde
; was valued at $15,000. He also states that
his loss is about SISOO, and that when the
disaster occurred, which threw him into the
water, his pocket-book, containing about
S4OO, dropped out his pocket and was lost.
The Owners of the steamer Clyde, are
Messrs. Coles Seizer, A Cos., Augusta. Ga.
Since the above was written, the two men,
; reported by Capt. Day as having drifted to
: wards St. Catherine's Island, from the wreck
i of ihe Clyde, we are glad to announce, were
. yesterday rescued by Captain Abeal, of Do
| boy, and taken to that point, from whence
they arrived nt this place last evening.
