-7-The Firemen’s Ball, last week,
proved a success, $175 being raised.
—Messrs. Phillips & Bussey are tur
ning out some good work. Now is the
time, if you want a good picture,
—Dixville comes to the front this
week with an eleven-toed chicken and
a baby that has cut its jaw teeth before
its front ones. ;
—We welcome upon our exchange
list, this week, the Dawson Weekly
Journal, a live sheet published in
Dawson, Ga., by S. R. Weston.
—Thieves are again at work in the
cemetery—vases, etc., have disappear,
ed. WquM it not bo well to offer a
small reward for their apprehension ?
It might bring them.
—The brig Laura Gertrude arrived
safely in port last Saturday, with hea
vy freight for Brunswick and Interior.
The report of her being aground out
side, and throwing cargo overboard,
was erroneous.
—“Brother Stacy propounds this;
‘Why Brunswick?' Brunswick be
cause there arc some pretty girls
there.”
So says Brother Charlie Pendleton,
of the Valdosta Times.
—From various marked copies of
western papers sent ns recently, we
infer that J)r, Worrall is still vigor
ously pushing his Dh'ect-Trade move
ment. He meets with much opposi
tion, as a matter of course, but is
manfully holding his ground.
49-Anotherlot of 86 dozen of those Tennessee
Eggs expected to-day. They ore larger and con
tain more nutriment than the ordinary egg. En
quire at 3. T. NELSON k CO'S.
—The Pearson Pioneer crows over
a watermelon six inohes in oircumfer*
ence, and says “how is this for soon?”
Pretty soon, Brother Pioneer, but not
much ahead of Brunswick; tomatoes
ready to bloom is what we claim for
“soon.”
—Whilst numbers are crying “hard
times, and worse a-coming,” we hear
of one of onr citizens who is quietly
engaged in trapping tho fur-bearing
animals that inhabit onr marshes,
with about 200 traps. He deserves
success.
—“Wat de Lord gib yon your foot
for—for kick wid, or for walk on?” is
the way we heard one little colored
girl pnt it to another, who, had just
planted her “pedestal extremity” into
her side just below the short ribs.
Query—Is not a Christian spirit shown
here worthy the imitation of older
hcado? .
—Jones, of the Macon Telegraph and
Messenger, thus closes a lengthy arti
cle on late Convention:
“In oonduding these noteb upon the
Convention, we cannot forget to ac
knowledge the conrtesics extended by
the editors of the Seaport-Appeal and
Brunswick Advertiser, Messrs. Smith
and Stacy. The latter gets ont quite a
readable little sheet, with the sol** as
sistance of a thirteen year old typo, his
own son. This is bringing expenses to
a focus, and there is no room for fail
ure in his case.” .
—A new club is in process of organ
ization in our town, we leurn, to be
styled the “Wampee Hunters”—the
den being to give up the great strug
gle of “living by »tho sweat of one's
brow,’’and subsist on pine mast, poke
leaves, acorns, cabbage palmetto, and
“wampee,” for breadstuff, and fish
and oysters, for meat. We lmve been
approached on the subject, and re
quested to act as cecretary, but had to
decline. We learn tho headquarters of
the club will bo somewhere on the A1
tamaha ri\’er, to bo near the “warn
pee” supply.” Wamn peas are good,
we know, but of “wampee” we know
not. , ,1 * ,
Creator, all that could he desired;
deep water and a safe . and eommoii-
harbor invite the entrance of the rich
argosies of the universe; railroads pen
etrating tothe farthest hounds of the
nation stand ready to pour in the va
ried produot/bf the connin’, but alas!
the lack’ of that magical talisman—
‘money, paralyzes every energy, and
renders abortive in a great degree, all
the benignant gift*of Providence.

Licensed, and yet not Licensed.
Here is a strange co.ni: A man comes
to town, announces his business, puys
all demands for city, oounty, and State
lioensns, proceeds to run his business*
that is dnly licensed, and lo! he is or
rested by the 'mighty arm of the
law, and arraigned for trial under the
charge of gambling—his bnsiness be
ing to sell small cakes of magic soap
said soap being warranted to wash out
all stains either from “olotbing or
character” (nice soap that!)—every
purchaser being entitled to a “throw”
and to receive the article on tho num
ber thrown.
Query—Was he not licensed to do
this business?
If so, why meddle him?
If he was gambling, and deserve 8
punishment, why not pnnish all who
gambled with him.
Was he any bigger sinner than those
who gamble at church snppers? If so,
wherein?
Now we dont wish to be understood
os approving this character in his un
lawful bnsiness, but we do think that
having been licensed by proper au
thority, he should not have been in
terfered with. If it was wrong to li
cense, then punish the party who gave
the license.
The following is from a reeent num
ber of the Macon Telegraph and Mes
senger:
—Loose horses about the public
pump are getting to be something of
a nnisance at times. Tho resnlt last
Saturday evening was one runaway
scrape, and numbers of frightened wo
men and children. Moral—Don’t al
low your horses to run at large “down
town,” or the City fathers will be for
ced to fix np a “horse law,” os well as
a “hoglow.”
Brunswisk will contribute to the
Centennial a gigantic stick of
GEORGIA TIT,I/l-T.- VTTR,
sixty-four feet in length, and measur
ing twenty-one inches one wuy by
nineteen the other. It is at the lum
ber yard of Mr. Cook, and will attract
general attention. The people of this
rival seaport of Savannah are still
* 'hoping on, and hoping ever. ” And.
indeed, one thing only is lacking to
make it take the front rank among the
maritime cities of the Atlontio coast,
and that is capital.
The high, salubrious site, adorned
with live oaks, cedars and oleanders, is
already, under the plastic hand of the
New Advertisements.
