He is as jolly and good looking as ever. We were also pleased to meet Mr. Chas. Gasman, a' No. 1 tailor of Savannah. About a hundred and fifty colored peo ple from this'ciiy and vicinity, had an ex cursion to Savannah on Friday last, per Str. Oariie. The Steamer left her wharf about four o’clock Friday evening and returned about ten o’clock on Sunday morning. We are delighted to learn that a more orderly ■and guietcrowd never went on an excursion. Everything passed off pleasantly and the ex cursionists wore very much pleased with their visit to the Forest City. The Commit tee deserve praise for getting up sm-Jj an ex cursion We are requested to state that there will he an excursion to Sapelo Light and to sea, on Thursday next, on the Str. Leon and the Young America. —We noticed, during the week, quite a number of laborers working the streets.

There was no serin us damage June. -We return our many thanks to the gen tlemon who invited us to go ou an excursion to .Sapelo, this week. # W* regretted very much our inability to attend. -There was a hundred hands at work on thi streets this week.

Past, Present anti Future. A pleasing evidence our ‘ltip Van Winkle’ is recovering from the, long embrace of old tiomnus —that the gathering rays of rising day art. penetrating the deeps of Sleepy Hol low. timl have readied the dull ori s of old Rip, is exhibited in this new impulse in the cause of education. At a recent meeting of persons interested, it was shown our people are ready for any effort the cause demands. A liberal subscrip tion for scholarships show all are ready to act. So confident are the investigating com mittee, they have lesolved to ask- for an act of incorporation and proceed at once to seek the altentiou of the most competent instruct ors, with the determination to build up a school, “which shall, in itself, be a stepping stone to the State University.” Success to their efforts ! Our position and prospects highly encourage this action. Our numbers are sufficient; our people have ample means; our location most desirable; The unsur passed healthfulness, beauty and comfort of our Ridgeville homes, ever fanned from the wide Atlantic, whose waifs always cool, nev er freezing, bestow a temperature most pleas ing. Can scholastic hen find more fitting place ? The classic c limes of Italy or Greece may not vie with this. The mountain tops not so healthful and inspiring; the Ocean Is lands not so desirable; our front vista, hun dred square miles of pictured salt meadow, interspersed with m indering rivers en livened with passing sail, and the talll argos ais of commerce in fleets and coveys, re ceiving the pitnlucts of our enterprise to bear to distuut nations. Our mail soon to be daily; our telegraph soon to be re-established and working, mo mentarily ; our rail road connection soon to be several times a day—and our future of expectation—massing forests of richest pine, now sought by the markets and fir the wants of the world; our clime and our soil produ cing the most valued objec ts of commerce, sugar, rice, cotton, with semi-tropic fruits; our union with the mighty West, by the sh* rt cst, cheapest loutc that can he opened, thro which its teaming millions will largely make their exchanges with the world. All this has promise of enlargement our most en thusiastic admirers do not attain. Go ahead gentleman, success waifs upon you. PEASE. Slickwell's Mucilage. Mr. Editor'. Now, that anew school has been organi zed by the election of a Board of Trustees for three years, and the pledge of about $2,- CO > annually to sustain it, we would call the attention of the public to the fact, that this school will be a failure unless they use plen ty of Sliekwell’s Mucilage. In other words, they must stick well together. Want of union has characterized us heretofore in re gard to one school. Personal or religious prejudices have influenced us and kept us apart. This might be allow and socially and religiously, if we must differ thus, hut what a school has to do with these objections, we cannot understand. Wo have a Board ol Trustees of the highest literary attainments fully qualified to examine any grad uate ;ss to his proficiency for the priu cipalship or assistant teacher. Having full confidence in these Trustees, sustain them; give no encouragement to any other school; listen to no tales of children as to the teach * ers manner or mode of instruction, for he is above your criticism by his education for the position, and by your having committed all fault-finding to the Trustees, If one drops off for one fancied slight to his children, and another for something that he don’t under stand, and so on, how can you hope to keep up a good, permanent school in this locality ? Don’t pay attention to trifles, but consider the common benefit. Shoulder to shoulder in this work. Use plenty of Stickwell’s Mucilage. PERSEVERANCE. Tlic Academy Ftijyl. Mr. Eiiior: ‘‘Paterfamilias” in vour issue of the Bth inst., writes of selling the property of the Mclntosh County Academy, and investing the proceeds in United States Bonds. My impression is that the bulk cf this property is dead capital. That is, flat it consists in part of town lots and land, that csgmotbe leased at present, and certainly not sold for anything tike their value. Some money is invested and some lots leased, and hence there is a small increase, but not enough, however, to support a school as in tended by the charter. Since anew school has been started in the community, and suf ficient pledged to pay two teachers liberally, it would be wiser if the Academy would build a suitable edifice not only for school, but to be used for other public purposes. They could own the building, lease it to the school at a nominal rent, and charge for public uses. Thus they would retain their property (should the school be a failure,) and always derive some return for the invest ment while fulfilling the design of their char ter. The Commissioners could thus meet the wishes of the public without, mixing the Academy affairs with those of the proposed school. Mclntosh co. The Public School Fund. Mr. Editor'. A correspondent iu your last paper‘sug gests that the public school fund be given to a proposed new school. If this can be legal ly done, there is one objection to so doing. There are several.gentlemen in this commu nity who are unable to pay tuition charges. Deprived of the public school, they must send to the pay-school one scholarship or in the benefit of the public school fund appro priated for that purpose. The fact being known, their children will be insulted by the children of those able to pay; called in brief, charity scholars. This is an old grie vianee. A gentleman cannot forget even in his worst poverty, that lie is a gentleman, and does not deserve the humiliation of his family by ill-mannered children. His little ones can attend the public school for he gives liis six ire of the taxes by which the fund is raised. Especially, he has lost his property and risked bis life for the State’s sake du ring the Confederate war, and the three month’s education given liis children by the State is a small return for his sacrifices. The Public School is endowed, so to speak, by his lost property and it may be, his wounds, and enobled by his patriotic pover ty. There Mr. Shoddy’s sons will not re proach his children for their parents’ pover ty- OGLETHORPE. The Public Schools. Editor Gazette-. I read a communication, in your last is sue, to the effect that the amount apportion ed by the County Board of Education to Da rien and the Ridge, could he appropriated to a “Graded School,” advocated by the wri ter. He had evidently forgotten the tenor of the State School Law, which is thus de clared by the State Commissioner of Public Schools: “If that part of this section in re lation to recognizing certain private schools as public schools was meant to give 'author ity for using the State School fund as a poor school fund, paragrraph 3, section 1, article 6, of the Constitution stands in the way: for this, in express terms, sets apart and devotes at least that portion of the fund derived from the constitutional sources of revenue to the support of common, that is public of free schools. The Constitution changes the whole school policy ot the State from the poor school to the public school system. [lnstructions applicable to the General School Law, approved August 23d, 1872, sec tion 38, page 15.] Such an appropriation by the County Commissioners would, on ap peal. be set aside by the State Commissioner. It would seem to be a provision of the funds. The State, evidently prefers an independent course, and not a copartnership with nnv lo cal, public, or private academies. FREE EDUCATION, ?.& We are informed that the yellow fever is in St. Marys. Rldsevlllc. It is about time that the Ridge received some attention to its needs. It lias a more permanent, and, during part of the year, a more numerous population, than Darien- The private residences are, generally, supe rior, and the two churches are better attend ed than the one in town. 1. We need a resident physician, one who will have his only office here, day and night. It will pay him Most of the births occur, and the majority, of the children, the gen erally sickly class, reside here. In cases ot emergency, especially in the day time when all vehicles have been driven to Darien, it is very difficult to send a messenger for either physician or medicine. One who would con fine bis practice to tlic locality, could have the monopoly of the practice, if found faith ful and efficient. 2. We need a local police. Though gen erally quiet, there’s sometimes drunken rows, occasional thefts and other misdemeanors. A resident Justice of the IVace is also desir able. Fines would deter some, and the worst cases could be taken to the Darieu jail. Now there is no protection; citizens have com plained to the authorities in Darieu, and aid been promised, but it has never been given, and offences have been repeated with impunity. 3. We need sanitary precautions. The swamps on the Back Road should be drain ed, this is the only objection to the healthful ness4if the place. In a certain season, there would lie miasm sufficient to poison the at mosphere of the whole locality and cause much sickness and death. 1. We need cheap transit to Darien, either by omnibus or a wooden railway. The ma jority of the’ people have no conveyances and have not tire money to purchase them. By a twice daily stage, leaving early in the morning, returning at noon; leaving again for Darien about two o’clock and returning at sunset, all, and especially the ladies, could go to town, make their visits and purchases and be at home within a lew hours. During the winter season extra trips would accom modate those who wished to attend public amusements in Darieu at night. Many bug gy owners could then abandon the now ne cessary cost of feeding their horses and hir ing grooms, at the same time invest the pro ceeds of their “turn out” where it will pay instead of consume the interest on the money. 5. We want a large public Rail for the use of the public school, for fairs, concerts, lec tures, dancing parties or any other public necessity or pleasure demanded. A public library would not be unwelcome. G. We want our capitalists to make their Summer home chiefly on the Ridge. They can buy land, erect houses, adorn their places, having plenty of boating, fishing and enjoy theihselves hugely, and help their poor neighbors to a like enjoyment, at about the cost of two summer-tours at the North, or iu Europe. The property here would always represent the capital expended; spent else where it is lost to tlie community and to the individual. These are thoughts for the thoughtful. SEASIDE. Board of County Commissioners. CALLED MEETING. Darien G.v, Aug., 12tli, 1371. Present—His Hou. T. P. Pease, Chairman, R. L. Morris, James Walker, Tiros 11. Gig nilliat.

Mr. Walker moved that the bond of Tax Collector be fixed at $12,000 —passed. Mr. Walker moved that the Clerk commu nicate with Mr. Kuinpb, and the Commis sioners offer to pay him 50 per cent, of his bill, provided he receipt his bill against the county in full—passed. Mr. Walker moved that the Couutv Treas urer be instructed to preserve in his hands S4OO for paying jail bills, and SIOO for pauper’s bills that have been approved and passed already—passed.
