The Colonel is just from a trip to the
counties where the terrible storm visited,

and seen for himself that lie never would
have believed that a storm could so terribly
demolish a place. He says that he saw
with his own eyes, an iron-hinge that the
wind had diven up to the hilt into a lari'
calc tree, at Camak. He further states thm
a shingle had been driven into a telegraph
pole. The Colonel says that these facts
were laughed at by biin until he went and
observed for himself.

Saturday JSreniinj Ktyrtss, dated Dari n,
.March Oth. “Bill" has been all 'ov r this
county and this way ,of not writing aU is
something we don’t understand, an lif he
don t mind we will “drop" old man Mor
gan a line or two and explain:
‘•Since my last l-.-ttcr I have been cruis
ing around the different points of Mcln
tosh County, stopping awhile at Dohoy
Dland. Here I found an,old friend Jos.
P. Gilson, F.sq., well known in your vi
cinity, and formerly a loading politician
in the city of Charlestown, whore lie has
many friends. II .: now carries on a large
saw null at DoLoy, and is one i f the lea d
ing men here, being one of the County
Commissioners.
“I also found the genial Capt. John Mal
colm. with whom 1 passed^a couple of
sours very pleasantly. I also visited the
famous Butler Island famous because it
onco belonged to Pierce Butler, the lms
band ot 1 rancis Kemble, tiro actress, who
has often been before Boston audiences,

“Washington's Birthday was celebrated
in good style-considering the facilities w *
'.had for putting the thing through. In
absence oi artillery, a number of guns'
ere got ct! the nignt before, and at sun
rise the “Stars and Stripes” floated from
the Custom House. The Knights of the
Yankee ltound Table (as some of the boar

do dinner, to find the table laid out in the
usual manner—covered with the American
flag—..nil in tlio centre a magnificent bo
qnet lianlied by bottles of “Silver Top,”
for which we wore indebted to mine host,
Carr. Ample justice was done to the vi
ands, as well as to the memory of the
“Father of his Country.” In the evening
we were favored with a concert by the Da

that original genius, Capt. P -to Ford, of
the steamer “Ajax” and in this connection
I will inform you that our friend Henry

Pete says ho once let liimsclf for a
first-class cook on a coaster, and his first
batch of biscuit was so hard that the Cap
tain broke throe of Lis front teeth in try
ing to bite them. He says he got rid of
them finally by using them t g kill por
poises. The Captain told him to put
yeast in'bis bread -and he did. He put
in two barrels of yea t powder to four bar
rels of flour, and put it i u the own. The
result was, as soon as if L >gan to rise there

but on a cooked turkey raffle, Pete can't
be beat.
Last Sunday J witnessed the baptism
of some colored converts. Tin • - mony
was more grotesque than impressive. I at
tended a revival meeting one oven lag last
week, and the emphatic manner in which
the gospel was laid down would have as
tonished the stately ] fyour
ly city. I was approached by one of the
dusky sisters, who said, “You older le v
bin down to the Meffodis last night; we
bed a bootiful tex.”
“My cherub,” I replied, “can you tell
me what the text was?”
yes ! itwr.s dis; file driv us wid
ran chariot fru two mountains of brass.’ ”
Plot being particularly desirous of tak
ing such a ride that night, I left the sister
to her meditation.
Last Friday night a party of us dropped
into a dance got up by some of the high
toned colored folks. V.'e had a gay time.
It is to be repeated, ns I seh chalked on a
pine slab thirty fi st long, “Lookout fo de

The Darien Gazette, which was de

last, comes to us in anew dress, which

The above journal is again upon its
feet, in a beautiful new dress, bright and
fresh. The citizens of Darien appreciate
the necessity of extending a cordial sup
port to their newspaper and know how to
extend material aid to enterprise. If
Richarp will be more careful in his press
work, he will have one of the neatest
weeklies in the State, worthy of the liberal
patronage which his paper receives.—

you an interest of wider extent. In some
manm r it is pleasant to observe thempow

writer can, it appears, from certain posi
tions, draw a result as shall pleas - him.
In the matter of the High School as has
been debated of late, the public are large
ly interested in success, and lament any
want therein. That it wove possible more
funds could be wanted than sixty scholar
ships as taken and made responsible for
by good and true men would not seem
possible. If any of these sk'ty are theme,
out of count M us knm* icho they are.
Having reduced the estimate we may
know how we stand. It is however, quite
a consideration when we learn three
fourths make a whole. We do not find that
mode persued in other vocations. Why
pay one thousand and five hundred dol
lars for not much over one half years la
bor? For if we arc far into the third
quarter as we must infer from the node
of statement, and it is but little over five
months since the first day the school was
opened (October 10th.) Wo certainly will
have a short year, and parlies subscribing
may wall regret the “flight of time.”

subscribed who did not expect to furnish
scholars. They made it a donation in the
interest of tlio school and for the use of
such as have need.

my sympathy and good v. ishc-e; and may

don't know anything about it but I feel
sure that you will start again. Darien can

it and you will come out all right, though
it may seem hard work to fight fire.”

vitation to be present at tho Calico Ball to
be given by the young men of Brunswick
on Thursday night. The invitation is
neatly printed on calico. If we can get
our calico jacket made in time you can
look for us over there, boys.

TE MORNING NEWS,

referred to as “The lest pag. r in the outh, '
“the leading Georgia daily,” etc., and is gener
ally concede 1 to be in all respects a modern
Southern newspaper.
This is the lame tb at the Morning News covets
a id no pains will be spare 1 hereafter to make it
still worthier of the confidence and patronage of
the people of Georgia and Florida, The ample
resources of the establishment will bo devoted to
the improvement of the paper in respect to its
already large fhciUties for gathering tho current
news of the and ay, and its staff of special corres
pondents has been reorganized with a view to
meeting every possible contingency that may
arise.
Although the Morning News has little or no
competition within the field of its circulation,
nevertheless no effort will be considered too ex
pensive that give the curliest and freshest infor
mation to its real. ‘rs. lathis respect there will
bein' relaxation of the endeavor to keep it far
ahead of its contemporaries.
The features that have rendered the paper so
popular will bo maintained. The editorial de
jiartinent will be conduct l with the same uignl
• fil'd thoughtfulness, conservative vigor, and earn
est devotion to priue-ipa! that have characterized
it. The racy reliability of the local, and the ac
curacy and completeness of the commercial de
partment:!, will bo kept opto the old standard,
and improvcm '.la \. ill be n.c.flo whatever they
nr sngg -steel by experience.
The Morning News is the only Savannah paper
that publishes the A'S i'- .ti l Press dispatches
and the Ti l.'graphic Market it. ports authorized
by the Commercial Bureau of N■ v York City. In
addition t i this, the Local Market r<ports will be
full and is liable, and will enable business men of
Georgia and Florida to form estimates as accu
rate and as intelligent as if they were in the
cite.
Ina word., the Morning News will comprise
ov ry feature that renders the modern newspaper
attra live, and its r aders may coufid-ntiy look
to its colnmns for the latest information In regard
to everything of current interest. It will admit
of no rivalry in its own proper ib 11, and will al
