The Gloomy View. Goldsmith's “Deserted Village” docs not present a gloomy picture than that of Brunswick to-day. The central residence part of the city is almost without an inhabitant. With but here and there an exception the stores arc closed, and cn many streets von may walk the entire length, with no sign of life appearing only that of an occasional cat creeping stealthily from place to p:acc .in search of food. In other parts where residences are occupiedAhere is a hushed silence as if the dreary surrounding had crept into the hearts of the people and crushed out .all hope. Here and there may he seen a brows ing cow upon some meadow of green, a j planted plat of God’s - Providence to light I the way with beaming sunshine, and in ; the midst of the waving moss drooping j from the grand old oaks, one can look on in admiration, catching’ the brighter blue of.tlie over sky, and in breath j>f sweet salt air, wonder why this plague would' exist. There is no stench of pollution, and yet while thus dreaming the unaccount-* able poison may* he slacking ’ the blood to a torment of vicious pain and scorch ing lever. * But for the going and coming of the few brave spirits whose time is devoted to the sick and the ■ goffering, and the daily throng that forms in double file next to the commissary store the dreary picture would have no back ground of relief. In the midst of this, however, the few are given to smile and cheer of connte- nancc that tells the force of will behind it. Even in the hardest haunts of vice there is the absence o’f revelry.

A Hindoo monk has created some thing of a breeze in the Parliament of Religions by declaring that tlie reason why Christianity had not made more progress in the east was that the mis sionaries were themselves selfish, dis obliging, and without tact. “Tell your missionaries,” lie said, “to preach gen tleness and mildness, and to practice what they preach. Tell them to prcaclt Christianity; but tell them not to teach that in order to become a Christian it is necessary to become carnivora.” fO DEATHS TO-DAY. i Go west young man and grow up i j with the train robbers. .j.™* I • South Carolina is having enough Yellow Jack Lightens His j trouble and strife to divide with her Grip on Brunswick. : nei s I,bo, 't ^ An Illinois couple were married (DfLYjv NINE NEW CASES TO-DAY j iu the Ferris wheel at the Chicago AM|EICiHT OF THEM COLORED. !

SMITH, Office- Reed’s Block. is feared the disaster will be almost as great as the late Atlantic storm. The Washington base ball nine may object to being called “the 'Sen ators” pretty soon unless the honora ble Senate braces up.—Boston Globe. The condition of matters in the Seuate is the black cloud that hangs like a death pall over the business in terest of the nation, aud the fact is, it gets blacker and more threatning. The Third-party leaders claim that they are gaining strength in Georgia every day. Democracy will shake off her apathy at the proper time. It won’t be a “billion five hundred million Congress this time.” They have not got the money and don’t know how to raise it. —Chicago Inter Ocean. They Are In It. Among the coaches, flat cars, box cars, etc., that were stopped over at the quar antine station last night was a freight car containing two big black negroes. When discovered they were asleep, but were awakened and asked for their health . certificates. Of course they could not produce thefn being common tramps and stealing a ride, so they were locked in the car and told that they would be sent back to Brunswick. They made a terrible noise for awhile, kicking the sides of the cars, yelling and cryin; for “help!” “murder!” and “fire!” and the lack. They did not like the idea of being sent to Brunswick, neither d’d the officers, propose to send them there, but it-was a practical joke that worked well, and this aftemonn when the car started back towards Waycross the two negroes were “in it”—rstil! crying for help. Yellow Feycr Notes. Dr. Lincoln is in charge of affairs at Jesup. Postmaster Brown has no assistants in the P. O. at Brunswick. now turns out there are only four cases at Jesup instead of six. Will Brunswick quarantine against Jesup ? that’s the question. One rcmarkble thing about the fever the lightness of the mortality. It is reported that Dr. Burford’s case of fever at Brunswick is very mild. • There"is a new refugee on St.Simon at the camp of Capt. Leo Lomm. Its a girl. The relief fund for Brui the 3rd inst., amounted to swick up t< $9,712.15 in At the inquest held on the bodies of the three St. Joe train robbers it comes out that they were riddled with bullets by the officers who made no attempt at capture. One of them had thirteen bullet wounds. Among the recent war vessels planned by England there is a quar tette of 14,000 to 15,000 ton mon sters that arc specially interesting*.

The announcement is gratifying to the slim pocket brigade, but the railroads would have made more money liad they adopted this policy sooner.
