One morning last week we met old Jonas, colored, and after passing the current topics of the day, asked him if he was mar ried yet. “No sah; de license am too high,” was the answer. “Only one dollar and a half, lonas, and you may then have a help-mate, one who will share vour burden of sorrow and joy for life.” we continued. ‘I’m bout forty, now; 1 haint got long to live. Dont vou spose Mass Ordinary would let me hab a license fur ten year fur nrty cents, and if r still live af ter dat time I cum and renue. If he gib a man license fur life fur a dollar and a half looks like he ought to gib one fur ten year fur fifty cent.” We had never thought of this proposition before, and if Ordi nary Lott has the question to solve he needn’t come to us. Coal-Burners. The Savannah, Florida and Western railway has been try ing the experiment of coal burning locomotives during tlie past week, and find them supe rior to those using wood. Last week, one of the passenger train engines was changed to a coal burner, and on one trip from Jacksonville to Savannah gain ed one hour and twenty min utes, having left the former place that much behind time and arrived at the latter place according to schedule. It is not claimed that coal-burners run faster than wood-burners, but the}' do not have to stop as often for fuel and water. One tender full of coal will run a train from Jacksonville to Sa vannah, while only a few stop pages for water are necessary. It is understood that six loco motives, for passenger trains will be put on as soon as possi ble, the test having proved sat isfactory. FIRE IN RR UN8 WICK. Shortly after twelve o’clock to day, the paint shop, a small frame building dividing the engine room and machine shop of the Bruns wick and Western railroad, was discovered to bo in flames, and an alarm given. The fire when discovered had already gained too uch headway to permit of its, being extinguished by the work men, and noticing this fact an ef fort was made to save the con tents of the building, but the light frame building burned so rapidly and the heat was so intense that it found iinpossinle to remove the heavy pieces of machinery, and only a few light articles of little or no value .were saved. The strong wind blowing at that time made the lire rpread rapidly, and it was only a short while after it had been discovered before the flames enveloped the engine room, paint shop and machine shop which adjoined each other. The fire departments and hook and ladder company were promptly on the spot. Mr. Moody, the en gineer, received a severe gash on his cheek by being suddenly thrown against a protruding sec tion of the engine. He had turned in his scat while on the way to the fire, and was adjusting some thing about the engine, which was being drawn by the horses at full speed, and a sudden jolt threw him violently against a sharp pro jection, which cut an ugly gash on the left side of his head and cheek. The destruction of the works will indefinitely throw about one hundred men out of employment Sind consequently considerably effect local trade. We are not able at this early hour to give the value of the works, but understand they are partly covered by insur- 'n New York.—Brunswick Breeze. fv vyvywwvyin l Henry Hohenstein, \ B REPRESENTING l $50,000,000 > Fire and Accident | Insurance, > Waycross, Ga.

Barnes, died on the 12tli day of January, 188C, of consumption, at the residence of tier .father, Mr. D. B. Smith, in Waycross, Ga. She was born in Ware county, Ga., on the 10th day of December, 1851. In 1874 she was married to Mr. Barnes, with whom she lived happily. She had no children. As a wife she evinced those qualites calculated to make her an excellent companion, ever cheerful and happy around the fireside, and in all circumstan- stances, whether her home was such as is calculated to render her happy or not, she made it so, by her cheerful presence. As a neighbor and friend she was kind and generous to a fault. As a member of the Methodist church she was a devoted Chris tian, ever taking a pleasure in the discharge of those things considered by some onerous du ties, to her they seemed a pleas ure. During the lengthy period of her illness, stricken down in the midst of her usefulness, by the fatal disease, she was always cheerful and happy, never giv ing way to a complaint. She died without a murmur, and passed from earth to heaven with a peacefulness that ever charac terized her beautiful life. To her husband, and family and friends, we tan but ofi^r that sympathy which is natural.— They have a liope that^ while they never may see her more on earth, they can go to her in the happy hereafter where there will be no more parting. Amicus. Most of the persons frozen to death during the recent ‘cold snap’ were negroes. This proves that this is a white man’s coun try, as the wtather is too change able for Sambo. Tilt Jesup Sentinel for last week has not been received. We guess the suh-butclier tH at smears that paper said some thing about us that he didn't want us to find out. If not we take it back. The Waycross Orchestra went over to Valdosta yesterday to furnish the music for a big ball in that town last night. It is said Editor Pendleton cut the pigeon-wing in forty different colors. Advertising has got to be nec essity to a successful pursuit of any business, and no man is a first-class business man, no mat ter how big an opinion be may have of himself, who neglects it. Those who advertise most liber ally do the most business and as matter of course make the most money. The trade pamphlet issued by the Brunswick Appeal and Ad vertiser .has been received, and reflects credit on this veteran newspaper firm. Messrs. Stacy and Son are enterprising pub lishers and their name, interest .and future well faro are linked with Brunswick, while the piece of art before us will con vince the public of their ability to aid -the prosperity of the “City by the Sea.” i LANIER k YOUMANS, Practical Jewelers and Publish ers Way cross Headlight.
