On Tuesday lost, as Mr. James
Whitlook, yard engineer of the E. T.,
V. & Q. Railroad, was transferring
the engine Georgia,recently purchased
by Mr. J. H. McCullough, of this city,
from the E. T., V. & G. Railroad,
from the “old depot” to Mr. McCul
lough's dock, be met with on acci
dent which cost bim bis life. He was
on the engine A. H. Colquitt, with the
Georgia coupled to it (both backing)
having with bim Mr. St. Clair, the
fireman, whilst tbe yard master was
on tbe Georgia. Leaving tbe old de
pot, be increased his speed, and, by
tbo time be passed Mr. Risley’s place,
was moving, from all accounts, about
thirty or forty miles an boar. Just
beyond this point, where the track be
gins to curve, his engine left the rails,
and, before he could either sbnt off
steam, reverse his lever or put on air
brakes, capsized and became a perfect
wreck. Tho tender was thrown com
pletely over and ends leversed, and
tbe engine itself thrown across the
track, barying the engineer under
neath it Mr. St Clair held on until
tbe engine capsized, and then escaped,
be knows not how, somewhat braised
and slightly scalded with steam. A
negro boy who had been enjoying a
free ride, was hurled into the air, and
came down with a cut hand. The en
gine Georgia stuck to the track os
long as there was any track to stick
to, and was finally stopped by running
into tbe wrock of the Colquitt, and,
strango to say, her only passenger,
the yard mantur, was not scratched,
although her tender was somewhat
bunged up.
What the engineer’s idea could
have been for such reckless running,
and that, too, over a place he know
was not entirely safe for such speed,
eunnot do divined. The fireman says
he remonstrated with him, but to no
avail. Wo visited the wrook as soon
after the accident os we could, and
witnessed a spectacle calculated to
appall. There lay the pouderous eu-
gine, torn into pieoes, her engineer
crushed and then cooked, aud the
track all torn and twisted.

out during the evuniug, put into a cof

Among delightful entertainments
at L’arioso we may truly class that
given by the Ladies’ Aid Society of
tbe Presbyterian cbnreb Thursday
night last. It m not only pleasant
but refined. Tbe parts were well
sustained, and all are loud in praise.
Tbe costumes were indeed ancient,
bat, somehow, it doesn’t seem to as
that either tbe singing or playing
There was on that stage decidedly
more cultivation in these branches
than was, ip our judgment, in the
days represented by those costumes.
The singers, fourteen in number,
sustained themselves most admirably.
All will unite with ns, however, in
pronouncing Mrs. C. the star of tbe
evening. Every word she song was
beard as distinctly in the back of the
ball as on the stage. Mr. S., as Time-
ist, won the admiration of all, both in
costume and “beat.” He was proba
bly tbe best representation of the
ancients, unless it be the tall lady
with tne big fan. The whole affair
was hugely enjoyed, and reflected
much credit on Mrs. D., under whose
guidance it wus gotten up. Among
the gentlemen singers Mr. H. T. D.
seemed to be a special favorite, judg
ing from tbe applause. We are
pleased to state that tbe concert was
a success financially as well as other
wise.

From Washington.
Mr. D. T. Dunn, of our city, writes
us as follows from Washington:
“ I bad tbe pleasnre of listening to
Senator Brown’s speech ou the polyg
amy question, and was impressed
with his ability and earnestness. Both
himself and Col. Bluuk have extended
every courtesy to me, and I believe
they are the right men in tbe right
place, and I only wish they coaid be
converted politically und become good
solid Republicans. I have seen Pres
ident Arthur and am satisfied that wo
have u man at the helm of state who
is disposed to do thoroughly right to
all sections of this great republic. I
shall be able to give yop tbe status of
the quarantine aud appropriation
matters connected with oqr port when
I return,-as CoL Black bos promised
to give me tbe desired information.—
Georgia Republican politics is now
the tueine of interest here, and none
can tell just yet ‘which is how.’ Be
tween Democrats and Republicans
Georgia is constantly and coutiini- lly
kept before the American vi.-i- . .—
Washington is a gay city, and n uioc
place to visit, but I would rather live
in our own lovelv city of oaks amt ce
dars by tho sea.”

The St. Simons marine hospital, un

junct to shipping. Would it not bo
well to extend its jurisdiction to a
wider scope, and let it take in Darien,
Fornuudina and St Marys ? Its doub-
lo daily facilities to and from other
points, renders the location admira
bly adapted to the business.
Card ot Thunks.
Mr. Editor; It is pleasant to feel
that wo have friends who remember
ns in' affliction. I desire to return
many thanks to those who have kind
ly remembered me in my affliction—
both those in tho city and my friends
across the river. It has been unso
licited by me, yet they have remem
bered me. I do not know who many
of the donors ore, yet God knowetb,
and He has said, .“ Inasmuch as ye
have done it unto one of tbe least of
these my brethren, ye have done it
unto me.” Some have not let the
“left haud know what the right hand
doeth.” May God’s richest blessings
rest on each one, shall ever be the
prayer of their friend,

CUMBERLAND.
New Projects on Foot.
A new and entirely different pro
gramme is now on foot for tbe devel
opment of Cumberland as a watering
(dace. The present plan of getting to
tbe beach is to land at High Point,
then go by whatever conveyance can
be bad to Mr. Bunkley’s place (now
Boss’) and then by tram-road one
and one-half miles to the beach. The
new plan is to build a tram-way di
rect from High Point across the
marsh to "Little Cumberland” beach
one and one-third miles. “Little
Cumberland is now owned by Messrs.
Stafford and Blalock, aud kept by
them for stoek. They have quite a
herd of horses there now. They pro
pose, if the tram-way plan is carried
out, to pnt np houses, stables, eto.,
right on or near tbe beach and pnt a
man there to gentle and break to har
ness and saddle each of their stock as
is advisable to be nsed by visitors to
the beach. The plan is all feasible,
and, withal, a marked improvement
on tbe present arrangement. With
these plans perfected, a new hotel and
landing at High Point, or tbe present
Hotel of Mr. Bonrbank enlarged, and
then either an excursion steamer dai
ly to that point from Brunswick, or
tbe palace steamer mentioned in re
cent articles to be put on by Mr.
Wolffo in connection with his road,
Cumberland would bloom ns the rose,
and her hotel be crowded with visit
ors.
Just above Mr. Burbank’s present
hotel, and, by tho way, just where the
landing should be, is a most mugifi-
cont location for a hotel. It is hign,
try and healthy, with a perfect Eden
of magnificent oaks. Nature has done
itB fall work iu making the spot just
whut it should be to render it a desir
able location for a watering place ho
tel. We commend this project to
both of onr railway systems, for it
needs their co-operation to make it
tbe grand success it should bo. Tbo
parties at interest on the island will
do all they can to farther the scheme.
With proper facilities, hundreds who
Oow go to Tybee, and hundreds more
who go nowhere, would annually
dock to Cumberland as a watering
place.
Whale Captured.
The whaling schooner Golden City,
Captain Authony, captured this week
seventy-barrel whale, just ontsido
our harbor. This will certainly prove
a lucky “ find ” Let us figure a little
on his value: Seventy barrels, about
2,130 gallons of oil—value about $2,
600. How is this for one day’s sport ?
We understand that quite a shoal of
them- monsters were playing about
the outer buoy this week. Oue of our
pilot boats sailed all among them and
watched their capers. They were
having a good time generally, and did
some loud bellowing. ,
Oar Albany Visitors.
The following party of sixteen la
dies and gentlemen of Albany, Go.,
viz: Misses Stella Wight, Bessie Wil
lingham, Paul Tarver, Page Jones,
Mamie Tarver, Messrs. Geo. Collier,
Willie Cutliff, G. C. Rust, J. D. Wes
ton, A. W. Tucker, T. Calloway, J. R.
Forrester, W. D. Mann, H. H. Tift
and S. Brown, chaperoned by Mrs.
Troup Butler, arrived in onr city on
Tuesday night last, on a pleasnre trip,
and stopped at the Nelson Honse.—
They came for pleasure and we shonld
think they foond it. They visited ev
ery place of interest around town,
went down to see tbe whale, and
wonnd np their visit with a trip to St
Simons Mills. It was the writer’s
good lack to accompany them on this
latter trip and show them around at
the Mills. The party left for home
yesterday morning, perfectly in love
with Brunswick and all they saw. Es
pecially was this true of St. Simons.
We don’t remember ever to have met
a pleasanter and more genteel party
than were onr Albany visitors. Hope
they will come again—they will al
ways bo welcome.

Among tbe brands of flour now sold
by our enterprising merchant, A. F.
Franklin, are tbreo that are cortuinly
home-like: “Rosa Lee,” “Our Min
nie,” nud “Our Harry,” named in
honor of three bright gems of his own
household. His choicest brand, how
ever, is in honor of somebody’s else
daughter. It is called the “Brunswick
Belle,” and, wo guess, was so named
by his clerk iu honor of his sweet
heart. Ton see Cates was too mod
est to call the girl’s name right out
loud, but we understand.
