Y. carried several bales of cotton—new crop— from Florida. Tho line will probably have all it can do in a short time. There is some talk of putting on an other steamer to go direct. —Northeast winds ore not consid ered favorable along our coast, but the last blow from that direction has done good work for us, bringing in quite a large number of long-looked- for vessels. —We saw a pleasing sight on Sat- . urday afternoon last—Father D. driv ing down Newcastle street with his democratic wagon even full of little girls. ’Twas liard to tell who enjoyed the ride most. —That’s right, friends, continue to send in your jobs. The Advebtiseb is a public benefactor. Give it your support. —So far we have had no bid for our f amous non-laying-but-ever-setting- und-clucking “Dominicker”. Fear ing the price ($9) may be too much, we now offer her at $6.50. Don’t all bid at once, for only one can get her. -FRENCH CLAY and CARBON PIPES for sale by COOK BROS. k‘ CO." —Day seems to be breaking finan cially, and the horrid gloom of night that has hung over our heads for some time, passing away, is what some folks think, but we fear ’tis only, the flashes from some prowler’s lump, as he goes his round, seeking whom he may entrap. We are hopeful, how ever. —We know of several men in town who could improve their business con siderably by consulting with the Ed itor of tho Advebtiseb. They ore Solomons, however, in point of wis dom, and wont take advice, Why will people “stand in . their own light?” —Fish have been more plentiful than usual for the past few days. Among those offered for sale we ob served several very fine trout. Shrimp and prawn, too, Beem unusually abun dant. We hear of a gentleman that caught a bushel on one tide. A few more days now and “oysters will be ripe,” and then we Brunswickians will be happy os clams at high-water until the Our Oyster Banks have never yet sus pended. —In order to secure a spirit of em ulation among the scholars of the Pub lic Schools here, an invitation has been extended to the pupils of the female department to visit the male school on Friday, 3rd inst,, for the purpose of hearing the boys declaim. The exercices will close with a spell ing match, the idea being to see which scholar will hold the floor longest In this contest the girls will join also, each scholar standing on his own mer its, and not as one school against an other. rations of either school, to gether with the Trustees, will please try and be present, and also see to it t$u& their children are not detained at home on that day. Time of exercises—from 12} to 2 p. m. Book used—Holmes’ Speller. Query.—Dan a lawyer conscien tiously defend a party he believe* to be guilty? We give the above in view of developments that may be made to morrow in the case now pending. —Representatives of several firms in town have gone on after now goods. Others will leave soon. We hope they wont forget to advertise when they get back. —How about that stave machine? We don’t hear of any shipments. Hope to report something favorable soon. —Ten vessels and two steamers ar rived in port on Friday last. We hear of probably six others afloat for this point. Fresli Groceriesjust arrived for The New York Store. The Reason for Study.—“Well, sir, papa will flog me if I don’t study at home, and you will keep me in if I don't study here, so I thought I would t,urn over a new leaf and get my les sons,” is the answer given by one of the boys of the Public School to his teacher, when called upon to know why it was that he had been doing so much better lately. That is the right idea, patrons. See that your children study at home. Your teachers are trying to do their duty, but they need your support; • Shov' your children that you are in-j terested in their progress; assist them,’’ if needs be, with their lessons, and you will soon see a marked change for the better. Some parents think 'their du ty ends when they furnish their chil dren with books and send them'jfco school. Not so, that is only the first step in the grand struggle. ' Many more are to he takeu by all parties concerned before the end is reached. Teachers, children and parents share alike the great responsibility of edu cating the youth of our land. Then 1 let ns all put our shoulders to tlui wheels; let none shrink back, and time will show the result. One more idea: If your child needs books, see to it that he has them. Nothing dampens the ardor of pnpil or teacher more than the total indifference manifested sometimes by purents on this subject. Never tell your child that you wont get him another book because he has lost the first one. Punish him if needs be, but get him the book. COUNTERFEITING. Some Catching, hut no Hang ing. For the past week our town lias been on the very tiptoe of expectation. “Any new developments?” is the first salutation when friends meet. The cause of all this commotion is the ar rest of Mr. J. Wells, charged with be ing “mixed up” some way in the counterfeiting of several thousand dol lars of city money, last year. From nnrno enuao n. “liADrini*" has been postponed uniil to-morrow, at which time it is hoped something tangible will come to the surface. In keeping with the rest of our citizens, we feel more than anxious to have the matter sifted. The pnblio hand reaches ont vigorously in several directions, striv ing to lay its finger on the head of the guilty parties. In its swayings it sometimes hovers over heads evident ly beyond all suspicion. We dread the result, buf want it to come—and quickly, too. Let the guilty Buffer, and lift the cloud from the rest, is what we call on all good citizens to set' 1 doiag. GENERAL ITEMS The free school question still 4 wor ries the people of our State. Satilla, B. & A. R. R., is in need of a sober, industrious teacher. Ad dress J. Knox. A commissioner has beeu sent to treat with tho Indians for the Black Hills country. In Vicksburg, recently, a riot oc- cured in which eight men were killed and several wounded—all about a little drum-oeating. The las: Saratoga sensation is a starring exhibition for the benefit of the ladies. What will those folks get up next. A large number of negroes engaged in the recent insurrectionary move ment in middle Ga. have been arrest ed. The ringleaders will be tried and punished—the dupes, turned loose. Shall the old Capitol at Millegeville be used as an “eaebriate” asylum? This.questiou is worrying the iniude of some of the editor, in that section. Amos Allen, (colored) charged with tho murder of John Wimbefrley (col’d) near Macon in 1773, has beeu arrested, but will probably “go free” for want, of evidence. : A Missouri edstor has eaten baked 'grasshoppers and pronounces them good. An ordinary hog would have jbijAen them raw, and saved the trouble of bulling.—Sac. Register. ■ Darien now has several brick build ings.. The recent fires.have evidently aoho some good for the place at large, though individuals must have suffered Very hieavily. So it is in the history oi mpst places. O'ir State asylum at. Millegeville for lunatics seems to be too small to i meet our, necessities. A larger one is talked of, but we think an extension „ pf the present one decidedly more in keeping with the times. Savannah and Macon are called by some “Wadley’s largest way-sta tions,” The Register, in a recent id sue, goes for him in Btrong longuage | alleging that he is not working for the interest of Savannah, but points beyond. The editor of the Hinosvillc Gazette evidently likes peaches—at least we judge so from his recent editorial cor respondence from Tattnall county. One reason ussigned for eating such a quantity was that he “hated to see them spoil.” Babcock of the Jacksonville Press, and Crane of the Key to the Gulf, each claims for his city the greatest num ber of babies. Well, all we have to say is that if either place can beat Brunswick they must be numerous, indeed. Twins arc common things over this way. August 26.—Steamship Ohio, which sailed to-day for Liverpool, included in her cargo 2400 crates Deleware peaches. The steerage of the ship has been turned into a refrigerator lined witnice and provided with fans for keeping up a constant current of cold air. This being the first venture of the kind, its success is looked to with much interest.— Ex. Senoia has the biggest sensation of the season, to wit: A chicken with four legs and four wings—a regular double fowl, with the exception of the head, which is shaped like that ot a child, with eyes, nose, mouth, chin, and neck. This wonderful fowl is in the possession of Dr. W. H. Hardison, who has put it to roost in alcohoL— Every Saturday. Messrs. Moody and Sttnkey, the great revivalists, have returned to America. They will resume their labors in this country, at au early day. The people of Illinois hold indigna tion meetings over the invitation ex tended to Jeff. Davis to address them at their agricultural fair—The people of New York state welcome with a serenade C'ol. Alston and Gen. Young amongst them. Some folks st y sour along time. Evidently the Millen nium is a “good ways” off. Under the head “Times North” the Telegraph and Messenger has this to say: “The current opinion North is that, the bottom has not been reached theie, and a Jong period of hard times and heavy pressure is before them. They insist that the South is as well off as they are. She has felt the full effects of the war, while their experience is just beginning. And these are the “results of the war,” wlrcli they to not feel disposed to insist on so stren uously. We fear the above is too true, so far as our AvLole country is concerned. New Advertisements.
