Whitewashing is one of the essential things in town and county and it should be freely used. — Thebe was some talk of petitioning Judge Fleming to hold a special term of the Superior Court. -—The rain falls on the just and the un just. But not on tho man who has just stolen a silk umbrella. —lt is earnestly hoped that the next time that Fleming holds court in Darien he will clear the docket.

We are satisfied that some good man will be nominated and elected. —"Who was nominated at Chicago ?” is a question that was asked of $s a great many times on last Friday and Saturday. Everybody knows ail about it by this time we guess. —Read the advertisement of bids want ted for the building of anew bridge over South Newport river. The 6th of July is the time for the bids to be opened and contract awarded. —With this issue we commence anew year and we hope that every individual who is indebted to this office will come up and settle. This is the dull season and we need every dollar that is due us. —Jack Wilson, a negro boy who was sent to the Penitentiary from this county several years since and who recently es caped, was captured in Savannah last week while trying to sell some stolen goods. —The Democrats of Glynn county will do the proper thing if they will pool their issues and put forward for the Legislature their very best and strongest man. They must quit their nonsense if they expect to winjin the approaching contest. —The News of last Thursday says: “The steamer Cumberland was launched from the ways in Jones’ ship yard yesterday after having been thorough ly overhauled. She will proceed to Da rien to go on the Altamaha route.” —We learn that a man from Liberty county is thinking of putting a few spring chickens on exhibition in Darien at an early date. They will be properly caged and parents need not fear that they will bite their children or the children bite them. —While the American sohooner John A. Griffin, from Philadelphia, was coming up to the city one of the sailors jumped overboard and swam ashore. The vessel was stopped and the man secured and carried back .to the schooner. He is said to have been crazy. —lt will be hard to find a man next fall who will be willing to acoept the office of Tax Receiver, [owing to the fact that the commission has been cut down to almost nothing. Mr. Young, the worthy Receiv er, says that he is losing money in the dis charge of the duties of that office. The same thing may bo said of the Tax Collec tor. Offioers should be paid for what they do Jheor can't weak for nations- For tlie Juflscslitp. Mr. Editor: —Permit me a short space in your columns, as I desire to bring before tho public, the name of our friend and fel low townsman, W. EobL Gignilliat, Esq., for the Judgeship of the Eastern Circuit. Tho term of tho present incumbent, Hon. W. B. Fleming, will expire in January, f&l, and the Legislature of that year will have to elect ono, to serve during tho term. Do not, Mr, Editor, understand me to say or even intimate anything derogatory to the honorable old gentleman, now filling the position, for he has the entire respect and admiration of all who know him, and is entitled to the hearty and unqualified ploudit, “well done, thou good and faith ful servant.” Yet ho is advanced in years, and although his mind is os clear and strong as of old, yet his physical body is weakened by the rapid strides of years, and he is now unable to bear and stand up under the immense pressure, of long and protracted sessions of the court. In view of the above reasons, it behooves us to see, that a young, active, vigorous and competent attorney is elected to fill the position, Jand I do not know, any one who would give as universal satisfaction as Mr. Gignilliat. He is an attorney of consider able prominence in this district, of pre possessing appearance, of firm legal abil ities, and with a constitution capable of bearing the rough and tumble of the cir cuit. I therefore, urge ' -on all, to push his claims before the people, at the next session of the Legislature. It is unneces sary for me to say, that I will do all in my power to bring about such a desirable and beneficial appointment. Citizen. Installation Services. Tho Presbjderian church was crowded on Sunday last, to hear Dr. McFarland, of the First Presbyterian church of Savannah, and to witness the ceremony of install ing the Rev. Mr. Curry to the regular pas torate of the Presbyterian church in this city. It is seldom that we have had the pleASure of listening to so impressive a discourse, as the one delivered by Dr. Mc- Farland, on Sunday morning. Taking for his text the test of Jehovah’s reality as dis played in the burning of the sacrifice, by fire from Heaven in the presence of the prophets of Baal, and the injunction of Elijah to the peoplo assembled to witness the wonderful manifestation of God’s presence, “If Lord be God follow Him; if Baal follow him,” the speaker commenc ed in a low, measured, modest tone, but warming up as he proceeded in the devel opment of so grand a subject, he became sublimely eloquent. The universal remark has been “one of the grandest sermons I ever heard.” The installation services were of themselves quite interesting, there be ing perhaps, only one fault, there length, but that is a matter of taste. We sincerely trust that Dr. McFarland will pay us anoth er visit soon. He will always find a hearty welcome from tho people of Darien. i-— —- - —■ - ■ ■ Drainage. When a communiiy or corporation ap priate funds from the treasury to make any improvements whatever, there are al ways some among the taxpayers who ex press opinion, of which, to say the least do not clothe those who make the appro priation with the wisdom, we think our officers should have. And when the Com missioners appointed a committee, to have the ponds in north and northestern limits of the town drained, some of k the cronic eroakers, express themselves in plain terms of disapproval, bat we do not think that’a single party of those who claimed, the money would be expended, without a re turn of any nature whatever, when the com mittee was appointed, can be induced to ex press an adverse opinon now. We must say, we do not remember of an instance where so much bdnefit to a community has been procured by so small an outlay, as has been secured to the residents of tlie entire city, as in the money expended, in extend ing and completing the ditches above quoted, and we say let the good work of improvments go on. Much Needed. It will be seen by reference to another column, that a meeting is called of the cit izens of Darien to discuss the importance of arailroad from Darien to the interior. This is a move in the right direction, and God speed the enterprise, say we. Darien has all the advantages of Savannah, and while she has been too badly flanked, per haps by other cities that have been alive to their interest, to become a city of any very great importance; there is every reas on to believe that she can he improved and made a place of much greater impor tance, than she now is. Darien has a fixed timber trade, a railroad cannot eilect that, while it will open up a field in other branches of trade, heretofore, unknown to the people. Death of Mrs. John A. Cobb. The following is from the Athens Ban ner of June 2d: “It is with feelings of deepest sadness that we record the death of this estimable Christian lady, at her residence in Cobbham on yesterday. She had been an invalid for the past twelve months, and as a consumptive gradually sunk to her final rest. In all the varied relations of life, especially those of wife and mother, she exhibited all of the mark ed traits of a high Christian character. Mrs., Cobb was the sister of the lamented Miss Clara E. Barrow, so recently interred in Oconee Cemetery. To the bereaved husband, children and relatives we ex tend our deepest sympathies. The funer al services will be held this morning at 10J o’clock, at the First Methodist church.” ‘ Now since a few of our go-a-head citizens have called a meeting, we hope that all who feel an interest in the advancement of Darien will attend, and take part in tbe Railroad question. Brief f.m'ali. Politics will keep you company thi. fall. The weather jhas been very unpleasant during the past week. .■ a G° o John Heins and get a good cigar, tho Champion of Darien, 5 cents. The Chicago Convention being over, now for tho Cincinnati Convention. The fruit crop of Mclntosh county will fall short, the first of tho season being too dry. Several Darionitos have been moving to their summer residences on tho Ridge this week. Lot every citizen attend the Railroad meeting at the court house this afternoon at 5 o’clock. We return our thanks to Congressman John C. Nicholl for a copy of tho Congres sional Directory. Mr. W. n. Cotter lost his horse on Sat urday afternoon last. It died in a few hours after taking sick. Remove to tho Eidge where you can en joy tho cool sea breezes and cultivate the society of tho festive musquito. Services will be held at the Methodist Church on the Ridge, both morning and evening during the summer months. That hundred thousand dollar appro priation didn’t go through the mill, so Darien will have to take a back seat until Congress meets again. Wo have slept over our opportunities long enough. One hundred years ought to satisfy our people that Darien needs communication with the interior. The ice cream festival given by the la dies of the Methodist church proved to bo quite a success. The ice cream festivals is tho place for our young gent's to take his young lady love and show his appre ciation of her by treating her to a saucer of cream and a slice of cake. Every body is anxious that Darien should have a public library but no one seems to have patriotism enough to take hold of the matter and bring it to a successful termi nation. We regret this very m uch as tho opportunity to secure a valuable collection of books for a small amount of money, may pass from us. Let some of our influential citizens take the lead and those of lesser weight will rally to them and almost be fore we know it a public library will be established in Darien. The Rov. A. B. Curry was duly installed pastor of the Presbyterian church, in this city on last Sunday. Rev. Mr. McFarland, of Savannah, preaching the installation sermon and delivering tho charge to the minister,andjthe Rov. Mr. Balier/lelivering the charge to the congregation, Mr. Cur ry is a great favorite with his congregation and we hope that his labors as their pastor will bo richly rewarded by tho bringing of many recruits to tho banner of Christ. In the grand jury presentments that were published in our last issue, w r e were in error in reference to the books of Jus tice Aiken. In speaking of them we said that in a “number” instead of “one” crim nal case he has failed to make entry upon his docket. We£ are under many ob ligations to the gentlemen for calling our attention to this grievous mistake, and will say that we are always willing to own, and take great pleasure in correcting any blunder thatwo make. Tbe Judgeship, In another column we publish a com munication urging the appointment of our talented young townsman, Hon. W. Robt. Gignilliat, to the Judgeship of ;this district. Judge Fleming has served the State long and ably and we would not ut ter a syllable reflecting upon bis past use fullness, but the fact, that he is now phys ically unable to perform tbe arduous du ties developing upon a man in his position is apparent to all. The interests of the dis trict require the appointment of a Judge, who is physically able to attend to the business incident to the.office. We think “Citizen” has struck the right note and wo earnestly hope that it will meet with a re sponsive echo throughout this entire judi cial circuit. Mr. Gignilliat is possessed of high attainments as a lawyer, of studi ous habits, good moral character, and is endowed with firmness tempered by kind ness, to a degree that will render him fair and impartial as a judge, and at the same time a terror to evil doers. We do not know that Mr. Gignilliat desires the ap pointment but we are so thoroughly satis fied that he would occupy the judicial bench with credit to himself and honor to the district, that we pledge ourselves, to do all in our power to bring about the ap pointment. I’iimtorc in Brunswick. A good time coming and we hope to be thersjwith our aunts, cousins, and to fact, with our whole famity. The occasion be ing a grand revival of pinafore, by the music loving people of our sister city of Brunswick. The object being for tbe ben efit of a lady who has by her own efforts supported herself and her fatherless child ren several years, and who has the confi dence and esteem of all who know her. Several gentlemen have spoken of joining together and getting up and excursion from our city, and we trust they may car ry out the idea, but should they not, we think it will well repay our amusement loving people to get up a party among themselves, as on the authority of one of Brunswick’s fair daughters, we can prom ise them lots of fun, good music, and a hearty welcome, with the best of treatment. June 16th and 17th is the time appointed for the operas. Raft hands have been plentiful this week and cheap clothing has been in brisk de- I mand. Nearly every hand equiped him l self with a full suit before leavmg the city. Utrsoiial. Mr. L. B. Davis went up to Savannah on Tuesday last. Mr. J. F. Nicholls, oi New York, was ;a Darien a few days since. YD. J. N. Winn, of McVille, Ga., was in the city during the week. Messrs. Chas. A. Hopkins, Jr., and R, W. Grubb, left on Monday afternoon last to attend tho State Democratic Conven tion. Mr. John 8. Austin, accompanied by bis wife left on Saturday for Canada, where ho will spond a portion of the sum mer. Mr. James Anderson, our worthy pain ter, haH returned from Brunswick, and re quests us to state that he is now ready to do all work in his lino. Capt. James T. Bailey, of Satilla River, spent last Saturday in Darien. The Cap tain has many friends in Darien. Tho Captain lias many friends in this section. Mr. Geo. T. Gaden, a well-knonw tim ber and lumber dealer of New York, was in our city last week. Mr. L. Hilton Green left during the week for New Brunswick. Mr. Green will sjiend a portion of the summer in Europe aud will return to Darien in tho fall. Col. James P. Chase, the very live agent of the steamer Contenniel at Savannah, spent last Saturday in Darien. The Col onel loves to he with the boys and ho nev er fails to amuse them when he visits this place. Come again, Colonel. Timber Splinters. Not much timber coming down to Dari en at present. Quito a fleet of vessels have arrived in port since our last issue. Thero is still quite a number due. Messrs. R. A. &J. Stewart cleated on Friday the British bark Tyrol, Captain Ellis, for Limerick, with a cargo of 133,883 feet of hewn timber,valued at 51,540; 247,- feet of sawn timber, valued at 53,223; and 8,410 feet of deals valued at $97. Mr. James Hunter cleared on Friday the Russian bark Osmo, Captoin Rautala, for Cork, Ireland with a cargo of 352,094 feet of hewn timber, valued at $4,225 12; 00,157 feet of sawn timber,valued at SOOI. 72; and 15,809 feet of deals, valued at $l9O 98; on Wednesday British bark Saga, Capt. Sjostrom, for Dublin, with a cargo 10-1,500 feet of hewn timber, valued at $1,974 7; 138,980 feet of sawn timber, val ued at 51.059 70; 7,892 feet of deals,valued at $94 40. The Hilton Timber A Lumber cleared on Thursday the 4th the Amrrican Schoon er Merrill C. Hart, Captain Brown, with a cargo of 09,900 feet of hewn timber, 56,124 feet of re-sawn, and 92,000 feet of boards, valued at $2,320 71; Schooner Izetta.Capt. Hicks, for Camden, Me., with a cargo of 102,189 feet of rc-sawn timber, valued at $2595 02. Tlio district caucus decided on Gen. A. R. Lawton, of Savannah, as State dele gate at large with W. T. Thompson as al ternate. As delegato from tho First dis trict tho following wore chosen: W. A. Wilkins, of Burke, and J. M. Couper, of Glynn, with J. C. Dell, of Scriven, and J. Camp, of Emanuel, as alternates. The devotion of so much of his time and talents to the public interests of his fellow citizens, which has characterized Mr. Couper’s course during the past year, entitles him to this distinction. As our near neighbor we congratulate him. Now that he has entered fully upon the polit ical arena, we do not know any better man from south of the Altamaha than our friend as a candidate for Congress. We do not think the citizens appreciate the necessity of following the advice given by the Board of Health in reference to pro viding receptacles for the debris, from their premicea, that the scavenger cart may remove it promptly. Our Board of Health are earnest in thoir efforts to have the city kept in a cleanly condition, and it behooves every good citizen, to aid them in every possible way,as all enjoy tbe ben efits of immunity from preventable dis eases.
