Direct Trade.
Glist Mill.—We hinted last week
that a movement was on foot for a
new grist mill. We learn that Messrs.
Minor & Hertel will have the some* in
operation in a few days. They are
fixing everything lu good shape, and
intend to spare neither labor nor
means in producing an article that will'
equal anything now offered- to ithe| |
public, in the way of grist and me&l. 1
They have our best wishes. *
That Stove-—We examined, a
few days since, the new model fob
stove, invented by our townsman, Mr.
James Robarts. He lms, in our judge
ment, obviated several of -the imp£&
feotions common to those now in haft.
His fire-chamber and chimney are ofi
the same end of tk j stove, causing the
boat to pass aroim 1 in liulf oirolo un
der the pots, (five in number) of, df
desired, by means of u damper, to piaffl
at once to the ohiutney, heating only-
one, pot, Another'advantage galkeff
is that the pipe c..n be clfiaued with
out being taken off, and the third ad
vantage is the peculiar build' 61 thtf
upper plate of entire stove, prevent^
ing all possibility of sagging in the
center from lient. A publio exhibi
tion and trial will be given at on early
day, when tho claims of this new in
vention will be fully set forth. ;r.
Public Drive.
Come, City Fathers, wbnt say you
to a publio drive? Other places have
such luxuries, why not Brunswick?
We have long had a plan iu our
mind’s eye, but not seeing the way
clear heretofore to carry it out, have
not pushed it forward. It is this:,
Open up a way from the shell ro ad.
at a point just below Mr. D. T. Dunn*
residence, across to the marsh above
Lieut. Bialey’s (there is now a road
along this route somewhat use 3),
thenco along the marsh to Dart’s
Landing. This would make a delight
ful afternoon drive, much of the way-
being wholly iu the shade, he work
necessary for this enterprise would be ‘
very little indeed, mostly chopping
and clearing away bushes. One or
two boggy places would need a Blight
filliutr of MHWiliixt. or ntbor mni«ri«l.
. like themoouk,*;, or,,y 0U11 * a them raw. ( Thn entire work emil.l be done by COll-
Yon'H And them to suit you at hi* restaurant. i . , , , • , ... . ,
viet labor, and without additional cost
to our citizens. What say ye, City
Fathers? Can’t the p’an be worked?
Give it your consideration at an early
moment, and see what can be done.
We would respectfully suggest the
name of Mr. J. M. Cooper, as ohair-
man of your committee, to investigate
this matter. Any services we conld
render that committee would be cheer
fully given.
Give him a call whenever you feel
any “cravings, within’’ for something
good to eat, or wish a few quarts to
carry home for the wife and babies.
—Boys, when you carry a note to
the doctor from your father, be sure
yon don’t pat it in the same pocket
with the one you have just written to
your duck. You may hand him the
wrong oue.
Reliable information having been re
ceived by our City Counoil that Dr.
Worxall, Managing Director of the
’Mississippi Valley Trading Co.” will
visit our city in a few days, by invi
tation of our Mayor, for the purpose
of examining our harbor facilities, etc.
a committee of four Aldermen and
Six citizens hnn ' been ftiwrtinUil fo
welcome him and show him what
we have got, and, if necessary, call
our people together to hear whut he
has to say on this subject—one, we
think, fraught with interest to our
whole country. We look with co.ifi-
deuco to this “Trade Movement, as a
mighty lever for good to the people
of this section. We are pleased to see
that onr citizens are awake to its im-
poraance, and are seriously inquiring
why the products of this southern
country should be sent all the way to
New York to be reshipped for. foreign
markets at additional cost. Why not
ship direct? is the great question now
agitating the publio mind. There is
no good reason whatever. United ef
fort in this direction will secure the
! eiid. Then let none pull to the right
‘ or to the left, but let all the people of
' our beloved State'stand shoulder to
Shoulder and push forward the mighty
‘ car of progress until Georgia, from
mountains to sea, shall blossom iike
the rose, and onr railroads shall groan
perpetually underneath the mighty
weight of ever rolling freight trains,
and our harbors be dotted ’ over with
the flags of every nationality of earth*
These'are the great objects before us,
fellow citizens: let us nerve ; our
selves manfully for the work and make
united' effort iu this direction.
If called together by this co rnnht-
tec, wo trust our citizens will respond
prompily and'give Dr. Worrell ou en:
thushustic meeting. He comes to our
midst looking to our interest os well
os that of the company he represents,
then givehim dll the encouragement
hcmcrits.
Later. -Since tho above has been
oft up” we learn from a prominent
member of tho committee that Dr,
Worrall will arrive, by special train,
to-movrow morning (Thursday) at an
early hour, and will spend the day iu
inspecting our city; hnrbr, etc,, and
at eight o'clock will uddress onr peo
ple on tho great question above allud
ed to. In behalf of the committee we
extend- to all an invitation to meet at
McConn’a Hall Thursday evening at
the hour ubove specified. Let none
ttay away.
