No. 29-tf. i. N. Bum.
—Fourteen vessels in port, and yet
the cry is “no money.”
—See notice of lady teacher in this
issue. If you need one let us hear
from you, setting terms, etc.
—We are under many obligations to
Captain D. G. Risk-y for specimens of
the finest turnips of the season, that
we have seen. They measured from
18 to 22 inches in circumference.
Who can heat this?
—Fetch out your candidates, gen
tlemen, the more the merrier—for the
printers. We’ll take the job to print
the tickets for all of yon—no, we wont
either. WeT “go halves” with the
Appeal in the matter.
—The cemetery looks much improv
ed since Mr. B. and his force have
been there. We are somewhat at a
loss, though, to determine what the
idea is iu putting the trash in piles in
the strtei in front of the gate.
—A postal card from Dr. Wm. Noble,
of the dental firm of Wm. Noble &
Bro., and whose card appears in our
1 columns, informs us that he will he in
Biunswick, on his regular round,
about the 10th inst., at v.hich time he
would be pleased to servo his friends,
and the public generally, profession
ally.
—Carpenters have been at work for
a week past in fitting up the steamer
Olyphant, for the special accommoda
tion of the travelling public enrouteto
the “land of flowers.” Passengers by
this route will find the trip a pleaeant
one, we predict.
—Susan, the colored girl accident
ally shot a short time since by young
Ferrill, is up and around again, and
must be regaining her strength, some
what, we should judge, for she found
no difficulty last Saturday iu “tan
ning out” a lad who offered her some
insult. Spectators represent his exit
over his yard fence as being rapid but
not graceful.
—Just to think of it! He wanted us
to bring our spade and shovel, and
work on the streets—as if we had such
things! Wo could not see it in that
light, and told him that the great
State of Georgia had too much respect
for her teachers (we being one) to
Require thorn to shovel the sod.
As well as wield the birchen rod.
He departed a wiser man. We excuse
him this time.
—Posters, signed “many voters,”
were spread broadcast last Saturday
morning, announcing the follow ticket
for Mayor and four Aldermen for
the ensuing year: for Mayor—Jno. B.
Habersham; for Aldermen—G. A
Dure, W. W. Watkins, J. E. DuEigl
non, and A T. Putnam. It has been
suggested to call a meeting of our cit
izens, for a general nomination. We
presume these gentlemen—or rather
their friends—will have no objections
to going into the same. We have no
preference in this matter, whatever,
but think as others do, that, of all
years, we shall need our wisest heads
at the helm the coming one.
—Friends will please excuse the de_
j lay of Advertiser this week. Press of
work, as usual, is our excuse .
—Tlio Amateur Club will play at
Finney’s Hall on Thursday and Fri.
day nights, and would be pleased to
meet their friends.
—"How did it happen that there ar^
so many cases on docket for trial ay-,
this court?” That’s what we would
like to know ourselves. Who will en
lighten us?
—Dark and glocmy indeed has been
tho weather for some days past. A
sight of the bright face of ‘ Old Sol”
would tend much to relieve the mo
notony.
—Mr. W. F. Syramons and Miss
Eliza Dart, both ot' this city, were
joined in marriage by tho Rev. N. B.
Ousley on lust Monday night, at the
residence of the bride’s brother-in-
law, Mr. Stallings. We wish for the
newly married couple all the happi
ness their young hearts have planned.
May the joys of life be multiplied in
their case, and its trials lessened. May
the thorns adown the pathway he
shorn of their poignancy, and the
rocks be freed from sharpness, so that
naught shall disturb them as togelhe r
they journey on.
—Mrs. Eliza Hall, widow of Mr.
Lafayette Hall, for many years a resi
dent of this city, died last Sabbath,
and was buried on Monday iafternoon
from the M. E. Church. We arc pleas
ed to mention that during her last ill
ness she received every^ttfntion that
kindness and affectioncould dictate,
not only from members of her own
household, but also from friends and
neighbors. Tho Masonic fraternity,
too, no doubt, extended a helping
hand to relieve a widow’s wants. Over
this, however, the veil is thrown. “Let
not the right hand know what the left
hand doeth.”
Superior Court,—Up to this writ
ing (Tuesday night) the above Court
has disposed of 35 civil and 3 criminal
cases—thus depleting the Docket con
siderably. Of the criminal cases tried,
that of Mr. W. S. Pitman occupies a
conspicuous place. Ho has been ar
raigned under charge of “larceny after
trust,” and was acquitted, but has
been remanded to jail in default of
proper bail, there being two or three
other charges against him. Mr. Pit
man, it will be remembered, was agent
of the Singer sev,*ing machine com
pany, and has been arraigned by the
company for alleged deeds, both of
“omission and commission. ” He has
been defended, we learn, by the entire
bar of this city, Capt. Mercer of Sav.
annah being the prosecuting lawyer.
Judge Harris, we should guess, ha?
kept things moving for a week past.
We hope he wont “let up” until the
whole Docket is cleared. The Grand
Jury, too, have not been idle, we
should judge, for our worthy Clerk in
forms ns that “true bills” have been
found, so far, against ten offenders.
We hope they wont cease their efforts
until they nneartb every vestige of
crime that may be concealed, os yet,
from public gaze.
Presbyterian Church,
We pre plf.f t.j tim* ar
rangements are being made to secure
a minister to fill the Presbyterian
pulpit at an early day. The fol
lowing resolutions passed at a rece.it
meeting of its members. We take the
liberty to publish them ns they con
cern, more or less, the general public:
Resolved 1st, That during the cur
rent fiscal year, or until the 1st of Oc
tober, 1876, the pew rental system of
supporting the Gospel be abolished iu
our Church, and that in lieu thereof
the system of voluntary contribution,
or subscription, be inaugurated.
2nd, That all persons or families
having heretofore rented pewu, and
desiring to retain the same, may have
first choice of such pews, or sittings,
and retain them, upon giving notice
of such choice to either of the deacons
within a reasonable time.
3rd, That all persons hereafter join
ing our congregation may have assign
ed to them unoccupied pews, or sit
tings, according to their choice, upon
application to either of the deacons.
4th, That all tho pews and sitting.,
in our church be open and free to any
persons desiring to attend the services
of the Sanctuary.
5th, That the ushers, in conducting
strangers and others to seats, locate
the same, so far ns possible, to caus®
the yeast inconvenience to regular at
tendants, who have selected pews, or
sittings.
