excursion to the lovely Frederica to-day.
The Gazette is issued earlier than usual
this morning on that account.
—The following wise remarks are clip
ped from an exchange, and we ask our
mercantile friends to read it carefully, and
then bring us an ad: -‘lf your goods have
special seasons, build up a trade for them
when out of season, and that reputation
will largely aid your sales when the season
arrives for putting them into the marketJ
It ‘no pent up’ season limits the demand
for your wares, it is clear that there is no
time when you can judiciouly withdraw
from the public eye your announce
ments.’’ •
—Our young friend, George Waniy
bacher, of the firm of Wannbachcr & Weil,
left on Sunday last for Savunnali, and will
probably “take in” Charleston and New
York before lie returns. George is off for
the purpose of selecting a large stock of
goods.
—We wonder -when that shooting ex
cursion is to take place. It has not been
abandoned, we hope. Get it up, friends
-of the Guards.
*
—Well, it has been decided at last,
Mclntosh county has been set down as the
county that owns the F. G. in G. Hang
ed if she hasn’t been here all the time.
She lives at the llidge.
—“ffuDOE” Tunis G. Campbell, former
ly of this county, but now confined in
Chatham county jail, is spending his
idle moments writing infamous lies to the
Northern Radical papers. The old
wretch.

give a grand hall in that jcity on Monday,
the 20th inst. A gay time is expected.

ded to visit the great Georgia State Fair to
be held at Macon, October 18th? We
hope Mclntosh county will he well repre
sented.
—The street lamp in front of Mrs.
Kothchilds store was left burning last
Sunday, and in tlia afternoon it explod
ed, creating considerable excitement for a
%hrart time. Nothing serious occurred,
*lls w ever.
—Last Sunday was a genuine Lot dayfT
Some of our citizens think that it was the
Warmest of the season.
—The Board of County Commissioners
held their monthly meeting on Monday.
The proceedings will be found in this is
sue.
—Two colored individuals Were up be
i&re Mr. Pease on Monday, charged with
being drunk, and disturbing the public
peace. Five dollars and costs were paid,
and nothing more was said about it. In
the evening Mr. Fease disposed of four
‘other cases.
A certain youth in this city is anxious
to know who is the “prettiest young man
do exense us) in this county.” Well
“bub, we can’t tell you just now, but if
you will call on some of the girls they
may enlighten you a little on the subject,
—We heard a young lady remark the
other day that the “pull back” was the

do the contrary.

.Another match game of base hall between

—We learn that Governor Smith has
‘ordered the Mclntosh Light Dragoons to
appear in Savannah on the 18th of Janu-j

>send the boys to the Philadelphia Centen
nial next July.
—The steamer Carrie, Capt. Cabanas,
commenced running between Savannah
and Augusta on Tuesday last. The Ileli
,nce with its well known and popular
fCaptain, Joe Smith, as Commander, will
I hereafter run the route between Savannah,
;Darien, Brunswick and Satilla River. The
Reliance is a much better boat than the:
••■Carrie, and with Capt. Smith to manage!
it, it will certainly do a good business
this fall and winter. Success to Capt. Joe
and the Reliance. \
—We learn that Thursday evening,
.September the 16th, is time designated for
,'the match game between the Alligator and
Altamalia base boll clubs. The Alligators
will make a better showing we think, this
time than they did before. There is one
thing certain, they can’t beat us much
worse.
—The steamer Clyde will make a trip
up the river the last of next week, ard will
probably run regular after that time.

Soiree at the Vlaynolla House.
Tursday evening last the Jfirsfc soiree
daneseuse of the season was held at the
Magnolia House, under the management
of several ladies of St. Andrews Church,
and for the benefit of that church. Al
though the evening was nn exceedingly
'warm one, quite a large number of hand
some ladies from Darien and the Ridge
were present to enjoy the occasion. By
9 o’clock the dancing was inaugurated,
and the various gentlemen present vied'
each other in their effort to promote the.
pleasure of all present, while the ladies, as
usual, won, and seemed to enjoy the con
stant attention by them so richly merited.
We cannot linger to diseribe the beauti
ful and attractive costumes, nor can we be
Iso invidious as to particularize by indi
vidual mention. When all looked well, it
would he hard to discriminate. Suffice it
to say that everything passed off pleasant
ly, and that the supper was as usual, good,
and muchly enjoyed. We are happy to
learn that this in the first entertainment
of a series to be had every two weeks, and
we feel fully assured that those.’which are
yet to be held will surpass this in varied
attraction and enjoyabilit.y. /
jrf¥*We have got a private candidate for
Governor, and no one but ourself shall
bete for him either. He is the man that
icts his feet rest on our table while he!
reads onr exchanges. We are confident
jjio would make a good Governor. By the
way, there is another whom we want tio
vote for for President. He, is the mat
that borrows the Gazette every week to
read the celebrated Notes of Dr. Bullie.
We think that a man that will borrow a
paper is entitled to at least one vote fcr
President,
The Georgia State Fair,
We call attention of our readers to the
advertisement of the Agricultural Society
of Georgia, by which it will he seen that
the State Fair will ho held this year at
Macon, commencing on the 18th of Octo
ber. The Fair this year will be under the
control of the Agricultural Society, and
bids fair to surpass all others ever held in
this State. Ample arrangements have
been made by energetic effort to securo an
exhibition of a larger quantity of mechan
ical appliances,Jas they affect the industri
al and agricultural interests of the State
than have ever been brought together. To
this end some of the officers of the Society
have visited during the summer, and
throughout the country the original man
ufacturers of the same, who in full appre
ciation of possible ad vantage to themselves
have promised to put their wares on exhi
bition. At the same time Mr. Commis
sioner Janes, of this State, will have pre
pared and put upon exhibition a classifi
ed arrangement of the mineral and geo
logical products of the State. This of it
self, would be of sufficient attraction to
draw a large attendance, to say nothing of
the farm, garden, horticultural and flori
cultural specimens always so prominently
on exhibition.
In addition to these attractions we see
from our exchanges, that Messrs. Geo. 11.
Pendleton, of Ohio, Tlios. A. Hendricks,
of Indiana, Senator Bayard, of Deleware,
and others dsitinguislicd citizens of the
country have signified their intention to
be present. The presence of the next
President and Vice-President of the Uni
ted States on this occasion will be cheer
fully and cordially greeted by our citi
zens.
On this occasion, however, wo would
call the attention of the Agricultural So
ciety to the fact that they offer no premi
umjfor the best sample or largest yield of
Rice.
Tins is the great staple and plantation
product of the seaboard counties and with
other staples we think demand recogni
tion and encouragement. Another year
we hope to see the premium list amend
ed.
here and there.
Atwood Bros, will move into their new
store next week.
The weather for the week past has been
excellent for rice cutting.
“Oh swallow your arm” is what tliejgirls
now gay instead of dog-gone-it.
Friend Mercier.of the Lizzie Baker, will
please accept our thanks for favors.
The County Commissioners will hold
an important meeting on Wednesday
next.
But '.Try little timber has arrived dur
ing the last ten days. The rivers are still
very low.
Now is the time to make known your
business by publishing your cards in the
Gazette.
The new telegraph office has been pain
ted and plastered during the week. It
| will lie occupied at an early day.
The oyster season has opened. Our
colored friend, John Simpkins will please
accept our thanks for a fine stew.
The inside work of the new brick stores
is being pushed rapidly to completion.
They will he an ornament to Darien.
The water lots are still in a wretched
condition. Well the next grand jury will
make somebody howl, we are thinking.
Nearly all the P. G’.s. of the Ridge were
out horseback riding on Wednesday even
ing last. It was certainly a fine display.
Owing to the indisposition of Dr. Bu’-
lie, his Notes does not appear this week.
They will have a place in our next issue.
We learn that another soiree will take
place on Tuesday night, the 21st inst. We
hope it will be as much of a success as the
last.
I
Capt., Jos. Hilton returned from the
North on Tuesday afternoon. The Cap
tain has been absent from the city several
weeks.
We are very much in need of a shower
,of rain down in this direction. We don’t
want a great deal of rain, but will take
enough to cool tlie atmosphere.
If a vote for Governor was taken in Da
rien, we believe James 51. Smith would
lead any other candidate six to one. What
other county can say the same thing ?
Smith will he the next Governor.
1 The musquitoes, sand-flies, gnats, fleas
and flies, together with the very warm
weather we are having just now, are
enough to make a man get mad and
crawl down into his slipper. The naughty
insects !
Mr. C. W. Floyd telegraph operator at
|Brunswick, has accepted a similar posi
tion in Pennsylvania. Mr. Coleman will
will take charge of the Brunswick office.
We wish friend Floyd success in his new
field of labor.
There is not as much interested mani
fested in the drills of the Mclntosh Guards
as there should he. The regular drills
are Thursday nights, and we hope that
the members will not stay away; but will
devote at least one night in the week to
this important meeting.
We were shown a few days ago the pul
pit for the new Presbyterian church. It is
certainly a very handsome piece of work*
and will be quite an ornament to the
church. The pulpit was built by an ex
perienced cabinet maker, of Brunswick,
and is quite coinrrffndable to the skill of
that gentleman. Messrs. Walker and
Hacket are due the thanks of our Presby
terian friends for procuring the skill of an
experienced workman on the pulpit, and
for the taste and wormanship displayed
by themselves upon the church.
Under the caption of “Further De
velopments'’ the Brunswick Advertiser
says: “In our last issue we stated that Mr.
J. A. Wells had been arrested, charged
with being an accomplice in forgery of
city money last year. Ho lias acknowl
edged the crime, and now turns “State’s
Evidence” against Mr. G. C. Fchm, Clerk
and Treasurer of city of Brunswick, who
has been arrested and is undergoing the
usual preliminary trial. Wo quietly await
still further developments, satisfied in our
own mind that the rehole truth T ill come
to the surface soon, and the guilt rest just
where it belongs. We withhold comment
until the matter is more thoroughly sift
ed. God protect the women and chil
dren.
Madam Rumor says that there will he
several marriages celebrated in the next
few months. From the present appear
ance of things in general, we would judge
that the Madam was quite correct. Wed
ding cake wouldn’t “go bad’’ just about
now, or a little later in the season.
We again call the attention of our
readers to the importance of sending dele
gates to the Canal Convention, to assem
ble at Rome, Ga., on the Gth of October.
This is an object of importance to Darien,
and we should have at least one represen
tative at the Convention, and there is no
time to be lost, as the time is drawing
near.
#@~Tlio Bark Allegro, from Liverpool,
arrived at Townsend’s wharf yesterday
afternoon.
js?t~We acknowledge the receipt of an
invitation of the members of the Lumber
Trade, Chicago, to attend their meeting
to be held on the 14th inst. A circular ac
companying the invitation says: “The
Lumbermen of Chicago, believing that
great practical benfits may bo derived
from a more general acquaintance
and interchange of opinions among mem
bers of this great industry, cordially sec
ond the invitation of the National Associ
ation of Lumbermen, and hope to meet
with representatives of the trade from all
sections, hereby assuring thorn of a hearty
reception and warm welcome. It is the
desire of the Chicago Lumbermen lliat no

OYSTER SHELL LIME!
The Cheapest anti Best Fertilizer
in Use in Georgia.
VOTHING IN THE WAY OF FERTILIZER AND
li Innovator of old Soils, has been found
equal to Pure
OYSTER SHELL LIME,
It is not only for one year, (like Guanos, wholly
exhausted the first season,) but its good effects
are seen and continues for
aiIGHT TO Ti:\ YEARS.
Lime is greatly beneficial to all Qraiu Crops, ap
plied as a top dressing and also to I’otatoes and
all Root crops, and should bo applied In quanti
ties not lesß than 20 to 40 bushels per acre. For
Compost Heaps it is invaluable, aud to the plan
ters of Georgia this plan of using LIME is espe
cially recommended, to bring up our State to the
front rank in Agricultural matt, rs. The cheap
ness of our
Oyster Shell Lime
will recommend it to every iarmer who has used
fertilizers largely for the past few years. Its value
is greatly enhanced by its long years of service
lasting as it does for years after its application has
been forgotten. In soils abounding in vegetable
substances the manorial quality of LIME is more
fully recognized. Nitrogen abounds in all soils
of common fertility, but little of it is available—
Lime unlocks tliis stoye house of Nitrogen aud
renders it readily available for plant food.
Asplondid and economical compost fertilizer
may lie made by thoroughly mixing one bushel of
Salt and three of lime, and let mixture stand G or
8 weeks before usin. This is specially adapted to
using in the drill for Turnips.
