Memorial Fund.
■ fes ——
To-day (19th), it will be remember
ed, is the anniversary of Gen. Lee’s
birth. A committee of ladies will visit
every house in town to-day to solicit
subscriptions to the “Lee Memorial
Fund. ” Let everyone contribute some,
thing, and thus swell the amount. Let
no one think his contribution insig
nificant, but see to it that he docs bis
best.
The following ladies compose the
committee:
Mrs. Houston Mrs. Robinson, Mrs.
Bostwick, Mrs. Nortpan, Mrs. West
moreland, and Misses Brooks, Night*

Annual Reports.
—We are requested by his Honor
the Mayor, to state that at a very ear

can be entertained by them. Heads of
families would do well to consult to.
gether at once and determine, so that
the committee need not he delayed in
their work. Do your duty, good
folks.
—We witnessed last week at Leben’s
bakery and candy store the entire
process of candy making from the
boiling of the sugar to the rolling of
thq stinks. Mr. L. evidently under
stands the business, and does produce
a most excellent article. Any person
needing pure candy, free from adulter
ation, cither for home use or for sale,
can have their wants suppleid by
calling on Mr. L. Patronize home in
dustry.
—Judge G. J. Wright has won fresh
laurels for himself in the able manner
in which he conducted our Court the
past week. He carries with him the
respect aud esteem of all concerned.
His closing remarks to the jurors, be
fore dismissing them, were compli
mentary and to the point. All fines
imposed were remitted, and Judge and
jurors separated in right good humor.
En passant we would say, that as an
officer in the field, or a Judge Gn the
bench, “Old Gib” “can’t be beat.”
Mr. Stacy:
Please issue following call in Adver
tiser 19 th Jan., 1876:
A meeting is called at McConn’g
Hall on the 24th of January, at 7 p.
m., to organize a first class Infantry
Company, to elect commissioned and
non-commissioded officers, to name the
Company, and to make arrangements
for obtaining arms and accoutrements.
This call is made by over a hundred bf
our substantial citizens, and we re
spectfully and earnestly request all to
support the movement.
Alexandeb W. Coupeb.
We are in receipt of copies of annu
al reports of State Treasurer and
Comptroller General for the year 1875,
from which we gather many items of
interest, viz’:
A diminution of taxable property in
the State of $11,887,408.00 since ’74.
This, however, is accounted for in
the exemption of $50 worth of hoiise.
hold and kitchen furniture, and $25
worth of plantation tools.
In the county of Glynn we find a
decrease of $185,066 in “city proper
ty," and $24,478 in “money and sol
vent debts;” but nn' increase of $1,000
in merchandise. We observe, also,
a diminution in nnmber of laborers
employed from 203 to 168.
Total number of voters 980—821
whites and 559 blacks.
The colored people of this county
own 5,678 acres of land, valued at
$20,867, and city property valued at
$18,867, which, together with other
property, amounts to $48,466, and
pay a tax of $247.83 into the treasu
ry.
guilt; it was but right, therefore,
that he should be turned loose, altho’
he might be ever so guilty; but, fail
ing to prove kirn guilty, why turn
loose the man who confesses his guilt?
That’s the question that staggers ou r
mind.
The community is now in a deeper
mist than fever, and, to our notion,
will be so for some time to come.

The Next Meeting at Bruar-
attfcJU wick.
3 The next semi-annual meeting of the
State Agricultural Society will be hel*
at Brunswick, on the 8th day of Feb
ruary, 1876, and will remain in ses
sion three days, The meeting is made
up of three delegates from each coun
ty society in the State, and there abe
generally from two hundred and fifty
to three hundred delegates in attend
ance.
THE EXPERIMENTAL FARM.
Dr. Pendleton says that his report
upon the operations of the experimen*
tal farm will be the moat interesting
one he has yet made. It will be a de
tail of the experiments of the pas 4
year to ascertain the oost-of the pro'
duction of cotton and Ijhe cereals, con
sidered with respect to the threo ele
ments which enter most prominently
into their production, viz: Food,
labor, and fertilizers. This, alone, wil*
be worth the trip to Brunswick, and it
is a subject which our farmers need to
discuss.—McDuffie Journal.,

New Developments.
In our last we mentioned that new
developments were looked for in the
city forgery case at the session
of the court lost week. Well, those
new developments came, but in the
wrong way The eptire community
were on the tiptoe of expectation to
have the whole matter brought to
light, and the guilt nailed where it be
longed. But such is the peculiarity of
the law, that the acknowledged con
federate in the crime, and so far the
only witness, is turned loose, and ere
this, we guees, is safely stowed awny
in Dismal or Okefenokee swamp*
If this be law, may we be delivered
for all time. It does, indeed, seem a
hard matter to punish crime in GJynn

The action of last week offers a pre
mium on lying. All an accomplice has
to do, if in trouble, is to turn State’s
Evidence on some innocent person.
The Conrt failing to find corrobo
rating proof, both are turned loose,
and the self convicted criminal takes
“leg bail” and is gone. We hope this
state of things will some day change,
or some people may resort to that ter
rible practice known os “linch law.”
