DARIEN, GEORGIA"
SATI'RDAY MOIiMNG, DEC. s(h, ISH.
THE PHYSICAL SITUATION SOUTH.
The Northern papers come to ns
full of accounts of financial distress
among the laboring classes of that re
gion. The possession and control of
the money by large capitalists at a
few great centres, wild speculation
and the haste to be rich, have absorb
ed the circulating medium, caused
heavy failures, precipitated financial
disasters, depressed business and in
volved the laboring classes in want of
employment and consequent hard
ship and suffering. Add to the want
of employment and of means, the
rigors of a long Northern winter, the
high price of provisions and the
scarcity of fuel, and the situation be
comes cheerless and appalling even
to tbe stout hearts of the yeomanry
of that laud. We turn from that
scene of gloom and present the situa
tion South. It is true that by reason
of the defective financial system of
the government, the possession, ab
sorption, and manipulation of the
money at the great money centres of
the North, money is scarce South and
can hardly be said to be current; yet,
now aud then a little is cast out from
the engulphing financial maelstrom,
and borne on some outer current,
floats as a kind of waif on the tide,
and reaches our latitude. But then,
our winters are short aud mild, wood
is abundant and almost without cost,
vegetables flourish even in winter,
sugar and syrup, the nutritious sweet
potatoe* and an ample supply of hog
and hominy, may be secured by all
willing to labor and earn their bread.
Beneath our genial skies and with a
soil that well repays the diligent fann
er, none need suffer for the necessa
ries of life, aud all may enjoy “sweet
content and a full board.”
At Darien industry is diversified,
aud the sober, temperate and indus
trious will not lack employment and
snpport. Our adjacent farms, well
tilled, will bring independence, and
in due time even affluence to the dili
gent farmer—for blessed is tho hus
bandman who relies on his own in
dustry 7 aud energy aud (rusts to Provi
dence.
SOUTHERN INDEPENDENCE.
The conflicts and bloody fields of
war belong to the past, and the du
ties of peaceful life are before us. War
is the contest of mere physical forces
in which might the force of numbers
and capital will triumph even though
truth is crushed and sacred rights
fall trampled iu the dust. The tri
umphs in peace are not less glorious
because bloodless, and achieved not
by weapons of war, but are accom
plished by energy, skill, virtue and
persevereuce. The South, blessed with
genial climate and a productive soil,
with facilities of transportation by
means of rivers and railroads, affords
a wide field for seeming that true
lasting independence which is found
ed on tho well directed energy of the
people in developing the resources of
the country, diversifying its industry
and opening new sources of prosperi
ty. To this end educate the mind,
disseminate information, awaken
thought, socialize and combine the en
ergies of the people. Let us have
proper book3 and right newspapers
replete with useful instruction, prac
tical lectures on suitable occasions,
that the popular mind may be anima
ted to action in the way of practical
utility. Let us have a thinking,
active, working people. Let hope
and energy inspire our people, the
mechanic and artisan with his skill,
the manufacturer with investments
in factories, the farmer endowed with
new love for the old home and the
cultivation of the soil, and “the waste
places would be made glad,” the des
ert become the garden, abundance
and prosperity would smile on the
land and the South be blessed with a
true, a peaceful, a lasting, a glorious
independence 1
aSHßeecher’s appeal from the de
cision of the Circui Court of Brooklyn
denying his demand for a bill of par
ticulars in the Tilton suit, the only
object of which is to delay the trial of
the case, is very generally regarded
by the press of the country as equiva
lent to a plea of guilty.
AFFAIRS IN GEORGIA-
The Thomasville Enterprise of las*
week, publishes the obituary of A. E.
Wattles, of Brunswick. Aleck spent
last Sunday in Brunswick and if be is
really dead he don’t know anything
about it. How pleasant it must be
for a man to read his own obituary
notice.
Ham, of tho Macon Star calls tbe
Eastman limes man a liar. Why', an
editor ain’t nothing until be calls
somebody a liar and gets knocked
down two or*three times. We never
did want to be nothing, nohow.
Ham not being satisfied with giving
Burton the lie, has gone to writing
poetry. Now, in the name of common
sense, is there no law to prohibit this,
Harris ?
Governor Smith has postponed the
side of the Macon & Brunswick Rai -
road until after the Legislature con
venes. It is thought that this road
will bo extended and not sold at all.
Rumor says Bryant and Wbiteley
will contest the elections of Hurtridge
and Smith. Of course, the Democrat
ic House will seat these lovely crea
tures—at home.
Our young and enterprising friend,
Otis Jones, Esq., has bought the Na
tional Hotel of Atlanta. Success to
you, Jones.
Marietta is unhappy because she
has no dog law. There aie a good
many places who would’nt mind hav
ing a dog law.
Brunswick has got anew pilot boat
and its name is Eannie-Louisa. It is
owned by Messrs. Brockington and
Tabbot. *
The B. & A. Railroad will at an
early day erect a machine shop in
Brunswick.
Tho Columbus Enquirer nominates
General Sherman for President; with
General Gordon as Vico President.
Wouldn’t Generals Hancock and Gor
don ho a better ticket ? We think it
woulc^
Abrams, of tho Atlanta News, will
yet whip somebody about that Belle
Boyd affray. Ho has forty-three
duels now in contemplation.
Aaronabradley has been expelled
from tho Bar.
Gorman has returned from E irope
and is now prowling around these
United States.
A Mr Carnes killed a Mr. Whefieu
in Marietta, last week. Carnes is now
in jail.
The Hinesville Gazette has this: A
friend informs us that the great Tunis
G. Campbell has gone to Washington.
Just before his departure, ho sent
word to our worthy Senator, H. W.
Mattox, that he must try to look after
one or two local bills in the Legisla
ture* as ho was compelled to go to
Washington to see that the civil
rights bill is passed at the coming ses
sion of Congress. Could not Tunis
be induced to stay in Washington, or
Sing Sing ?
It is said there i3 one man in the
State who does not take a newspaper.
Asa natural consequence of his
idiosyneracy, he on a visit to town the
other day, wanted to know if Mil
ledgeville was located in the same
place it was formerly. He also did
not have an idea as to who filled the
important office of Governor; for he
asked whether General Toombs was
“guvnor yit.”
The following is clipped: Georgia’s
Confederate element in the next Uni
ted States Congress will be very con
siderable. It will consist of Mr.
Stephens, tho Vice President of the
Confederacy; Mr. Hartridge and Mr.
W. E. Smith. These are all members
of the House, and were members of
the Confederate Congress. Iu the
Senate, there is the gallant Gordon,
who was, as is well known, one of the
foremost leaders in the “lost cause.”
Moreover, he is very likely to repre
sent the Empire State of the South as
Vice President of the United States
in a few more years. There are other
old army officers who are now Con
gressmen elect. They are Messrs.
Cook, Candler, Harris, and McMillan.
Georgia is right in putting forward
these old war horses. They were
faithful in the past, and can be relied
on in the future. With her two no
ble Senators and her true representa
tives, Georgia need not fear that her
voice will not be heard properly and
powerfully upon all important meas
ures that come before the next Con
gress.
A PHANTOM FEAST.
THE GHOSTLY DOINGS AND INVISIBLE
GHOSTS AT A NEW }ORK TABLE —
A STRANGE MYSTERY.
Apropos to the stories of haunted
houses and ghostly doings to which
the prevailing spiritualistic mania l as
given rise, a correspon lent sends the
following to the New York World,
vouching for its truth:
There is a gentleman who visits our
city once every three years, who ex
cites a great deal of interest on ac
count of some peculiar, circumstances
which always attend him. His per
sonal appearance is striking—rather
tall, with head firmly set on broad
shoulders, iron gray hair, brushed off
from a full, white forehead; well cut
features, and eyes dark, with a strange
inward expression. He takes rooms
at one of our first class hotels, and re
mains three day 8.
The first is spent in giving direc
tions for a banquet to be served in his
private apartments, and he is particu
lar to the minutest detail. The sec
ond day he superintends everything,
and his face wears an anxious look.
At about four o’clock he retires to his
dressing room, after giving a last in
junction to the servants to be in at
tendance at the appointed time.
The hour approaches; the table is
resplendent with silver, crystal, and
flowers; the servants stand expectant
ly waiting, yet no guests have arrived.
At length the doors of the inner room
open and the strange gentleman en
ters, his face flushed and head bent,
as if listening to some remark ad
dressed to him. With polite gesture
lie indicates scats to numerous invisi
ble guests, and at last seats himself at
the head of the table. With a motion
to the astonished servants he signifies
his wish to have the covers removed
and the different courses served.
All is profound silence, and yet the
host appears to be engaged in earnest
conversation, frequently bowing and
smiling toward different parts of the
table. At length the wine is poured,
every glass is tilled; iitid as this is
dttne the host rises, holding hi-; glass
high over his head. Instantly every
chair is filled with lovely 7 women and
courtly men, sparkling eyes look love
to eyes that speak again, and rosy
lips seem ready to part with rippling
laughter. Soon the ladies disappear
through the dcor—float, as it were,
out of sight—and the gentlemen re
main. Conversation seems to be re
newed, when suddenly the gae of all
is riveted upon two young men who
appear to be very angry. They both
rise excitedly, one draws a dagger,
uplifts his arm, and, with quick de
scending motion, buries it in the
bosom of a beautiful girl who has
rushed in and thrown herself in front
of the intended victim. Jewels gleam
on her polished throat and amid the
shining gold of her hair, while her
life blood, like a crimson thread,
slowly trickles over the snowy white
ness of her dress.
Every face is tilled with a look of
horror, and with a cry of agony the
host falls back in his chair insensible,
and as he falls the guests fade away
aud vanish into air.
Nearly all of the servan ts have long
since fled with fl ight, hut a few, allow
ing their curiosity to overcome their
fear, have remained to the end. They
now summon assistance, and the
strange gentleman is carried to his
bed. For a long time all means of
resuscitating him failed, but at length,
with a’ deep sigh, he opens his eyes
an'd moans, “Oh, is it all over?” Then
he falls into a drop slumber, and so
remains until the afternoon of the
third day, when ho makes his appear
ance at the office, calm and collected,
calls for his bill, pays it without the
least demur, orders a carriage, and is
driven to tho Grand Central depot,
and there we lose sight of him until
three years roll over our heads, when
we feel sure that he will visit us
again.
There are many stranger things
happen than ever appear in print, and
this probably would have been one of
them had not the public become ex
cited over the Eddy mysteries and
fairly roused our scientific men to in
vestigate the indefinable something
that steals up stairs after us every-day
people, and lays its cold hand upon
us in our sleep.
The circumstances here related can
be corroborated by a number of peo
ple, if necessary, Dr. , who has
been a witness of them, has a theory
which may be the right one after all,
chimerical as it may seem at first. In
this case he thinks the gentleman has
in reality gone through just such a
scene as has been described, and that
probably the young lady was his
daughter. The dreadful shock her
loss produced acted in a peculiar way
upon his brain. It must take three
years for some unknown force to work
within him to the poiA when he feels
compelled, perhaps, as a sort of relief,
to repeat as far as possible the event.
When the wine appears this inner
force must be reaching to culmination,
and the vision, so intensely vivid in
the mind, is projected into or upon
the atmosphere, like a reflection in
the glass, so that it becomes visible to
all who may be present. When he
falls the force is expended, and the
phantasmagoria disappears. The pro
longed insensibility followed by a deep
sleep is an effort of nature to repair
exhaustion and restore equilibrium.

said about the .Morning News by its con'cmpoia
ries ot the Southern press. It is almost daily re
ferred r . a- ‘'the hest paper in the South.” ‘-the
leading Georgia daily.' etc., and it is generally con
ceded to be in all respects a model Southern news
paper.
This is the t ;me that the Morning News covels.
and no pains will be spared hereafter to makeit still
worthier of the coufidcm c and patronage of the
people of Georgia and Florida. The ample resources
oftiie establishment will tie devoted to te.eimprove

facilities for gathering the current news of the day,
And its start of special Correspondents has been re
organized with a view to meeting every possible'
contingency that may arise.

petition within the field of its circulation, neverthe
less no effort will he considered too expensive that

tent pofaries.
The fea.ures that have rendered the paper so pop
ular will he maintained, The editorial department

tulness, conservative vigor, and earnest devotion to
principle that have always characterized it. The
racy reliability of the local, and the accuracy and
completeness of the commercial departments, will be
kept ud to the old standard, and improvements will
be made wherever they are suggested by experience.
The Morning News is the only Savannah paper
that publishes the Associated I’resS dispatches and
the telegraphic market reports authorized by the
Commercial Bureau of New York City. In addition
to this, the )oal market reports will be full and reli
able, and will be accompanied by such comment as
will enable the business men of Georgia ard Florida
to form estimates as accurate and as intelligent as if
they were in the city.

every feature that renders the modern newspaper
attractive, and its readers may confidently look to
its columns for the hi rst inhumation in regard to
everything of Current interest, it will admit no ri
valry in its own proper field, and will allow no com
petitor to outstrip it in any department of journal

THE SUN.
WEEKLY, SEMI- WEEKLY, AND DAILY.
THE WEEKLY sun is tqo widely known to re
qu.re any extended recommendation; but the rea
t( ns which have already given it seventy thousand
subscribers, and which will we hope give it many
thousands more, are briefly as follows:
It is a first-rate newspaper. All the news ot the
day will be found in it, condensed when unimpor
tant. at full length when of moment, and alwys pre
sented in a clear, intelligible and interesting man
ner.
It is a first-rate family paper, full of entertaining
and instructive reading of every kind, hut contain
ing nothing that can offend the most delicate jinct
scrupulous taste. >
It is a first-rate story paper. The best tales and
romances of current literature are carefully selected
and legibly printed in its pages.
It is a first rate agricultural paper. The most fresh
and instructive articles on agricultural topics regu
larly appear in this department.
It is an independent political paper, belonging to
no party and wearing no collar. It lights for princi
ple. and for the election of the best men to office. It
especially devotes its energies to the exposure of
the great corruptions that now weaken and disgrace
our country, and threaten to uudbrnnne republican
institutions altogether. It has no fear of knaves,
and asks no favors from their snpporters.
It reports the fashions for the ladies and the mar
kets for the men, especially the cattle-markets, to
which it pays pays particular attention.
Finally, it is the cheapest paper published. One
dollar a year will secure it for any subscriber. It is
not necessary to get up a club in order to have THL,
WEEKLY SUN at this rate. Any one yvho sends a
single dollar will get the paper for a year.
We have no travelling agents.
