We could write a column on this subject but have neither time nor space. We must, however, return our thanks to the clever young men who were the originators of the excursion, fo r many favors. We have been on a great many excursions but never before have we slept on an Island and covered with oyster shells, and then be aroused every second by the breaking in ol a naughty musquito.

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.’, opinion was opposed to Sund..y School.- ft c usurping the place -i iul . lie pc. the parent and the sponsor, u.d i lacing iu the bauds, too often of an iuco:..; nt am. inexperienced teacher, tli spiiitual educa tion of the child. It was cone- b il. however, 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. _ LAUS DEO. Communicated.] 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. ALPHA. Communicated.l 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. BROKEN-ILEA RTE D E A BRINGS. [Communicated.] 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.

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. _ understand there will be a boat race to-day (the Fourth), between the “Mag - nolia" and the “Unknown.” They are both sail-boat ; ... —This is an excellent time to subscribe fur the Gazette.
