Bapllxl Slipper.
On Thursday evening last, the la
dies of the Baptist church of this city
gave a supper at Dillon’s Hall, for the j
benefit of their Sunday School. The
attendance was not as large as was I
expected, neverthelesss we have been
informed that it was financially quite a
success.
On reaching the Hall we were
struck with the neat appearance ev
erything presented. There was an
abundance of everything good to eat
and most accommodating and prompt
attendants.
Much was contributed to the pleas
ure of the evening by that clever and
efficient auctioneer, Mr. D. T. Dunn,
who kindly undertook to dispose of
the articles remaining at the close of
the evening. He was ever ready to
pounce upon the unsuspecting youth,
the presence of whose sweetheart
would prevent his saying, “I didn’t
bid.” The beaux who had not thier
pocket book, were compelled to turn
away to prevent their winking being
seen—each wink being worth twenty
five cents to the church.
At a late hour the crowd began to
disperse, every one feeling satisfied
with the pleasures of the evening, and
that the ladies of the Baptist Church
are most excellent cooks.
New Pilot Boat.
The “John H. McCullough,” Capt.
C. A. Russells new pilot boat has sail
ed for Brunswick, and is looked for
daily. She is according to all ac
counts a handsome craft, and quite
an acquisition to our already flashy
fleet of yacths in the pilot service.—
Our pilots are a noble and deserving
lot of men and we arc proud of their
prosperity.

Proceedings of the Citizens Itleelln«*.
At a meeting of the citizens at the

sth, 1879, called for the purpose of
considering a Municipal nomination,
Hon. M. L. Mershon .was called to
the Chair, andT. O’Conner, Jr., elect
ed Secretary.
After stating the object of the meet
ing the Chairman announced that a

NORTHERN LABOR GEORGIA.
Telegraph and Messcgcr, of the 27 th ]
On thursday a party consisting of
fortythree men and one woman, all
underthe charge of Mr. W.H. Russell,
passed through the city on their way
to the timber mills of the Georgia
Land and Lumber Company, of which
Mr. A. G. P. Dodge is President,
near Lumber City, on the Macon and
Brunswick road.
They were for the most part sturdy,
healthy looking men, and were woods
men from Tioga and Lycoman coun
ties, Pennsj’lvania.
They left on the Brunswick road in
good spirits, and much pleased with
their Southern experience so for. The
company now has about a hundread
and fifty men at work at their mills.
Alapaha presents a busy appear
ance just now’. The carpenters have
their hands full of work, the store
keepers are jaded with overwork, the
turpentine men never were so busy
in their lives, and everything seems
to have commenced a new and vigor
ous departure.— News. \
BUILDING up.
Progre«f» Along tit© of the It. A
A. Railroad.
We are glad to note a sign of rapid
progress, along the line of the Bruns
wick A Albany Railroad. The com
pany is just now building a number
of handsome and substantial station
houses, at the most important points.
Work has just been commenced on
one at Alapaha which will be the lar
j gest between Brunswick and Albany,
! and will add mnch to 4he appearance
I of that progressive little town.
This movement on the part of the
1 officials of the B. A A. is not of the
' wild-cat or mush-room kind, but is
prompted by the largely increased
way business of the road. The pro
duction of cotton, rice and naval
stores in the counties through which
the line runs has so greatly increased
that better shipping facilities are de
manded to meet the enterprise and
progrees of the people.
Taking all things into considera
tion there is £not a more favor
able section of Georgia than its
pine-woods or wire-grass belt; and we
axe gratified to see)ti;e people who in
habit it, begining to realize {and prac
tically demonstrate the resources of
their section. Let the good work
go on.

Judge Woods, of the United States
circuit court, has rendered a decision
in the case of Eugene Kelley, of New
York vs. the mayor and aidermen of
Savannah to recover money due in
bonds and coupons of the Savannah,
Albany and Gulf railroad guaranteed
by that city. The defense was that the
city was not liable, as no considera
tion was rocieved; the indorsement
was not issued by the city,and were
not for internal improvement. The
court decides the defense not good
as to the law and the facts
>n the case and directed the jury to
return a verdict for the plaintiff. The
amount involved is $300,000 in bonds;
and $60,000 interest. Notice
given of an
GETTING MONOTONOUS—THE
REASON
One of the reasons, in my opinion,
for the weakness of convention edicts,
is that the same men make up all the
conventions. The personelle is seldom
changed. It is the same old crowd
over again—good enough it is true,
but monotonous after awhile. It looks
as if the ‘organized’ were moving in
a very narrow circle. Take this Con
gressional district. The very same
men go from Fulton county to the
convention every time. One of our
delegates, and a capital worker too,
has been in this district. The same
crowd comes up from Houston, and
will continue to come. Forsyth hardly
ever varies her representation, while
Crawford sends one man every time
We all know who is coming from
Fayette, and who from Pike, and so
on through the list, In any county
they will tell you, Be sure and see
Blank-he always go to the conven
tion. The people think it strange that
the choice of the primaries should
fall on the same set every time. — Henry
Grady.
The above is about as near the
trut as truth itself. It is these selfcon
stituted delegates to conventions
which have disgusted the people.
There are a certain class of men who
want to give to themselves political
importance at home and abrsad, and
they are eternally figuring in county
meetings and as delegates to conven
tions. They are the ‘big and influen
tial men of their counties and hold
the promotion of this or that man in
their hands. They must be election
eered with, or they will defeat any
man who does not think them of
enough importance to seek then- in
fluence. Mr. Grady hits the nail on
the head exactly. Hence, our con
tempt for many of the political con
ventions. They represent the men
who compose them and nobody else.
