Give it a faithful perusal. —The steamer Lizzie Baker ran on to a snag on St. John’s Bar, last week, and sank in 18 feet of water. She is valued at $65,000, nnd is a total loss, there being no marine insurance on her. No lives were lost, we learn, and part of her cargo was saved. free. —Sec advertisement of garden soeds at L. B.

Oh, that some of our liang-bnck sul rt ribers would come to the front with a stray dollar, so that we could get one, loo. — “Small beginnings ofltn make great endings. ” So we thought last Saturday evening as we stooped at Mr. Frank Hall’s fruit stand on the Bay, to vote his increase of 8.

Drop in, and examine for your self. —The meeting for nomination, last Thursday night, some how. proved a failure. We always thought we knew very little about politics, elections, and the like, but now we are sure of it, for, to our unsophisticated eyes, everything was going on spendidly, when lo! in a moment half the crowd vanished out of the door, and we heard some one whisper, —Wire- works!** Wonder what it meant. Oh. dear I oh. dear! . — Iu telling of the fire alarm in last issue, we gave more prominence to the loss of Col. Towns’ stave machine than of Dr. Anderson's mill. We did not, intend any slight to the Doctor’s inter ests, for his loss was far greater than Col. T.’s, but was only looking at the affair from u public standpoint. The mill was idle, and has been so for some time past, and consequently was do ing nothing for tb« development of the resources of our section, whereas the stave machine, although worth but a few hundred dollars-, was giving employment to at least, thirty men. —Last Saturday night the retiring Mayor and Aldermen, together with the newly elected Board, and also a few friends, “broke bread” with our newly elected Mayor at the residence Election.—Only ninety votes wi re polled last Saturday for Mayor and Aldermen. The following Ticket Was elected: for Mayor—T. E. Davenport; for Aldermen—M. J. Colson, J. F. Nelson, W. W. Watkins, and A. T. Pntunm. There was no opposition, whatever, except, probably, a few sc; tiering votes for some unknown person. Mr. W. W. Watkins was elec ted to fill the unexpired term of Col. Mevshon, resigned. These gentlemen, together with the older members of the Board, have heavy work before them; let us, the people, strive to encourage them in their efforts, and not Ctist stones, either at them, or in their way. knifed Friends of Temper ance, Attention! Yon are earnestly requested to at. tend the next regular meeting of your Council, on the night of the 17th inst., as there is pinch busThess of impor* tance to be transacted at that time. The year is about to become a thing of the past; soon it, with its events, will become a link: in memory’s chain, a tie that binds us to the irredeemable “gone' bv;” with its passage we will al] lie landed one year nearer the tomb, the portal of the mystic, unknown eternity; us its hist Hcene is being en acted, we will all retrospect the pro ceeding ones to see how we have, each, sustained the parts allotted us; and when the sable curtains are dropped, and the infrangible seal of of the past in stamped npon the tomb of the dead j yoor, how will our record, as temper- ] unce workers, appear to those who come after us? Shall it be In the glow ing lettersof success, nnd enveloped iu the wreath of the proud conqueror, or shall it be dimly yet indelibly stamped upon the walls of time, in letters traced with the tears of heart broken wives, the cries of starving children and the curses of shattered manhood, in the dark habiliments of defeat?

In the name of humanity, in ti e name of the fadeless principles of Love, Truth, and Temperance, in the name of your loved ones, and all that you hold dear, we call upon you to arouse yourselves trim your lethargic state, put on the temperauee armor, raise the battle cry, lolly around the totter ing banner of onf noble cause, and strike a death blow to King Alcohol. “Strike foryour altars and your fires!’’ Strike for freedom anil happiness, and with the find dawn of the “New Year’* let us proudly view our grand old ban ner floating triumphantly iu the breezes of happiness and love; nnd os the angel band strike their golden burps and sing, "Peace on earth, good will to men,” let us catch up and prolong the holy strain, and exultant ly shont, Long live the glorious Prince of Love and Temperancel , Miss Minnie Marlin, W.

Habersham entertained the party for a few minutes with congratulatory remarks to the Mayer fleet, in view v! hi® almost unanimous flection, and to ilia citizens electing worthy an officer. To which Mr. Davenport replied, thanking Mr. H. for the kind* ly words spoken, nnd promising to strive to retain the good will of the community, by faithfully discharging the duties of his position. No liquors were furnished for the guests, and, so far as we could judge, no one suffered thereby. How shall it be answered by ns? Are we, like the old year, going to die? Have we straggled through the sum mer’s months and the chilling days of autumn, but to die with December’s blasts?
