Andrews was regularly ordained at the Baptist Church in | this city on the 30th, ult. The mortuary report of this city, for the month of November, aggre gates only four—all infants. A lawyer wishes to know if the council will fine him for getting up | briefs in his office on Sundays. The Grand Jury have been making diligent inquiry into violations of the law’ for two weeks past, and are still in session. John Greenfield will probably be tried in another county, as it will be { impossible to obtain a jury here to try the case. The theives are out again on the .chicken hunt and it will be well for you to see that your chicken houses are well fastened at nicht. . 1 The Macon A Brunswick Railroad 'will be leased out by the Governor on | ■Jim 13th day of January next, and ■then predict —Brunswick will “boom.” The ship “Sunbeam” which was (mentioned in our last issuo is a .complete wreck.

Cannot Brunswick obvi ate this ? We are glad to announce the ap pearance in Brunswick of the talent ed Miss Clarke, who will give one of her charming and entertaing readings at an early date.

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.

Editor Appeal: My name having been published on a ticket for Aiderman, at the ap approaching Municipal election, af fords me an opportunity to thank my friends for the compliment, and to assure them that I will under no cir cumstances accept the nomination nor serve if elected.

Henry P. Farrow, United States District Attorney, was in this city last week, looking after the treat ment a Spanish vessel received here some time ago. Messrs. Littlefield & Tison, with their characteristic progressiveness, have added one hundred feet to their wharf to facilitate the unloading of lumber. Col. Price has charge of the work. Mr. George Fader, son of Captain G. H. Fader, of Cumberland Island, passed an examination on last Friday evening and was appointed a pilot by the St. Andrews bar. He will be at tached to the “H. B.

Vincent’s business com pels him to be at the Court House, hence the “devil” has full sway. Col. Styles will return with his family on Thursday. Mr. Willie F. Barkuloo, one of the most polite and efficient conduc tors on the B. & A. Railroad, had the pleasure of accompanying his wife to church last Sunday, for the first time in over three months; it having been his lot to lay over in Albany every Sunday for that length of time. —Frank V. Evans, of the - Albany News, paid our city a visit last week. Frank has just been elected Secretary and Treasurer of the Southwest Geor gia Industrial Association, and we have no doubt will be re-elected Clerk and Treasurer of the city of Albany, which position he has faith fully held for three years past. He wears his honors with becoming mod esty. — Proceedings of the Citizens Itleelln«*. At a meeting of the citizens at the Court House, Friday evening, Dec. 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 nomination for. Mayor was in order, and after deciding to adopt a majori ty rule and nominate by ballot, the name of James F. Nelson, was men tioned and after a call from the Chair for other names, and none being put up, the motion to elect by ballot was withdrawn and a motion to elect by acclamation prevailed, and Hon. James F. Nelson was unanimously nominated for Mayor. Upon motion, a committee of five (Messrs. W. J. Williams, J. E. Dart, F. J. Doerflinger, L. S. Scruggs, and L. B. Davis) were appointed by the Chairman to draw up a ticket of four Aidermen to be adopted or rejected by the meeting, upon their reporting the same. The committee presented their re port, which after some discussion and slight alterations was accepted and which completed the Municipal ticket as follows: For Mayor—James F. Nelson. For Aldermen—Wm. H. Berrie, Jno. J. Spear, Alex. E. Wattles, Jno. C. Green. Short addresses were delivered by Messrs. Ira E. Smith, W. J. Wil liams, J. E. Dart, J. F. Nelson and others. The proceedings of this meeting were on motion, ordered published in both papers. The meeting then adjourned. M. L. Mershon, T. O’Conner, Chairman. Secretary. 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. ESTIMATES FOB THE NEXT FIS CAL YEAR. $129,300 tor Ilia improvement ol tlio Savannah River and Harbor. Savannah News.] The book of estimates for the fiscal year ending June 30th, 1881, which will be submitted to Congress on the Ist instant, bus been prepared by the Secretary of the Treasury. It con tains, as usual, many interesting items, among them are the following of local interest to your section: For salaries and expenses of inter nal revenue and deputy collector’s for the State of Alabama, $27,600; Geor gia, $55,200; Florida, $10,900; and South Carolina, $27,900. For salaries of Surveyor General of Florida, $2,000, and for clerks iu his office, $4,200. This latter item for clerk hire is estimated as necessary to transact the current work and bring up the arrears, consisting of de scriptive notes of the sixty-three townships to be furnished to the Register’s office, necessary indexes to swamp land claims, also to complete a condensed history of private laud claims. For continueing the investigation of the history and habits of cotton worms and insects injurious to agri culture. $5,000.

The appropriation ma.de by the act of March 3d, 1875, is now exhausted, the book of estimates says, and these bea cons are of the most importance to navigation, and the appropriation asked for is required to keep them in order and replace such as may be destroyed by hurricanes, For establishing a series of lights on Dog river bar and Choctaw pass, to guide into Mobile harbor, $6,000. For continuing modifications for heavy guns at Fort Moultrie, $50,000; for same at Fort Sumter, $50,000; for construction of batteries for heavy guns and mortars at Fort Johnson, $10,000; for modification of work for reception of heavy gunsat Fort Jack on, $10,000; same for Fort Pulaski, s7s,ooo;construction of batteries for; heavy guns on Tybee Island, $50,000, modification of work for heavy guns, etc., at Fort Clinch, Amelia Island Florida, $50,000; for new draw bridge and repairs at Fort Taylor and bat teries at Key West, 75,000; for re pairs and constructing six stone plat forms for fifteen inch guns at Fort Jefferson, Florida, $28,000; for work at Fort Pickens, $75,000; for work at Fort Barrancas, $50,000; for Fort Mcßee, $50,000. The following estimates are made for the improvement of the harbor and rivers named: Improving harbor at Charleston, 8. C $500,000 Improving harbor at Suvauuah and Savan- nah river 129,34)0 Improving harbor at Brunswick, Ga 25,000 Improving harbor at Cedar Keys, Fla 35,000 Improving harbor at Pensacola, Fla 1,000 Improving harbor at Mobile, Ala 200,00 n Improving Chattahoochie river, Ga 50,000 Improving Coosa river, Georgia and A1a.... 100.000 Improving Flint river, Ga 50,000 Improving Ocmulgee river, Ga 19,000 Improving Oconee river, Ga 8,500 Improving Oostanaula and Cooaawattee riv- ers, Ga 6,300 Improving Apalachicola river, Fla..* 25,000 Improving Choctawatchee river, Florida and Alabama 15,009 Improving inside passage between Fernan- dina and St. John's, Fla 25,000 Improving Alabama river, Ala OO.qOO 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. —Savannah Recorder. MARRIED, By the Bov. A. C. Ward, at the residence of the bride’s lather, Thursday, Doc. 4th, 187!) Miss Annie May Nelson, of this city, to Mr. H. H. Dickson, of Atlanta.
