F y OUR LOCAL AFFAIRS. Col. J. J. Lewis, of Brunswick, is in town this week, shaking Ivamis with old triends who are glad to see him. Camp-meeting at Gaskin’s Spring is beginning to he looked forward to, now. It will come off next month and a large attendance is expected. Col. \\ . \\ . McDonald lias re turned from his jaunt in the North, and seems somewhat improved in health. lie took in New York, \\ ashington and other important points on his trip. Jolly, good-natured B. Peterson, who pulled out w ithout our per mission or knowledge sometime ago for New York, lias returned. I'here is no telling what lie did while lie was gone. Frank Appleby went off to get married some ten days ago, and we have heard nothing of him since. Is it possible that Miss Belle kicked the fellow, or lias she kidnapped him and gone off on a bridal tour? .We will \yait and see. I.atkh : They have arrived. We furnish Italian marble, Ver mont marble, Georgia marble and granite and tombstones in any de signs that anyone else has, and we lean duplicate their prices. Why not give us your , irder? We get , the tombstones from the same place the other man does. Mr. |. M. Aside)', who strayed ; away from Douglas, in company ■ with some other gentlemen, soine . time since, bound to see the sights ;in New York and other points, has returned.

Tlje death of a loved one ladens the very air with sadness. Lieut. I'liner Claude Sheldon, Mrs. I liner, Miss Ethel Sweat, and Jake t imer. Jr., the mascot and the advance pickets of the ri lies, came up Thursday morning. Now make a note, and this fall don t tail to set out a full (junta of shade trees. Remember how you have needed them this summer. Mr. Ben Johnson, of Gray’s mill, we are informed, was stricken \ with paralysis last Thursday week, and was in a dying condition!- In the matter of job printing we do not propose to do it cheaper, than anyone else in southern Geor gia, hut we give better work and material than tlie most of them. We have been a resident of Douglas near two years, and we chronicle to-day the first death of a citizen within that time, and the adage “that death lines a shining mark"’ is fully sustained. In the matter of substantial im provements the present city coun cil has made a line record. We make this assertion now without fear of being accused of election eering for its re-election. David Kirkland and Mark Hall were both in to see the Breeze Monday. 'They both seem in good health and spirits but to save our lile we can’t say they look any Get ter than usual. Mr. P. Sellers has moved his business from Douglas to Saginaw. He has a good stock there now, and the people down that way can get good bargains by going to see him at once. No thank you; we are not enter ing any more credit subscribers. Not that we are afraid they wont pay us next fall, next fall year, or the year after, hut we havn’t the money to run the business. As we went to press last Thurs day evening we were informed that Henry Matt hews, colored, was shot from ambush, near 1 .elialou as lie was retiming from the turpen tine woods.
