1 Local Matters. 'DeathofMwuF^M. Do side A Beautiful Craft, in Whioh Bruns- - wick Owns a Portion, We bad a pleasant coll this week from Captain E. P. Lake, of the schooner Aaron Reppnrd, named in honor of the father of our lumberman, ppard, Esq. Captain Luke was here about a year ago, taking subscriptions.' for the building of this Died, at the residence of her hus- baD d’s father, near Quitman, Brooks ouuty, Go., on Friday evening, Feb. 24th, 1882, Mrs. F'SE Dugger. Just "ne short year Jrom the day she left _ _ y bsu happy bride, death claimed her "• his victim. Many a heart in our aiidst was saddened by tbeannounce- meu t of her death, for she had, during .vessel, and at the same time pnrchas- "V * i t. • «* » i inrr anmo nf tfin mnfnwnl with whinh her stay among us, by Her affable manuers, cheerful disposition and kindness of hftOr^yWff^ th* estoenbjpf •ill with whom^she came in contact, aQ d the deep, affectionate regard, of her more intimate astpcifrtmi. . j£or some tijne she^ public schools of this city, and as such, highly was she esteemed by the of ficers, patrons and pupils, that it was with the deepest regret they heard of her intention to offer her resignation. ,Vs a teacher she was thorough, pa tient and kind; as a friend, faithful^ warm- hearted and true; as a wife she was all that "one coumwisn in a life companion—loving, tender and con siderate; and as a Christian she was meek and trusting. But she has been called to her other home, and, among the radiant host on the other shore, her spirit has taken its place, to beck on onward and upward the loved one left behind. Personal, Mr. J. M. Dexter is still copfined to his bed. It is refreshing to witness onr M. B. Railroad agent, J. L. Brown, Esq., in the discharge of his official duties. In him the road has an able officer. Alfred Johnson, a colored drayman, and Tatnall & Hibbard, colored ste vedores, own shares in the new schooner Aaron Reppard. This speaks well for them. Messrs. W. F. Symmons & Co. opened store this week at Gascoigne Mills, on St. Simons Island. Mr. Symmons is a worthy young man and deserves to succeed. Savannah has contributed some clever specimens to the business men of onr city. Among these we take pleasure in memtioning onr yonng friend J. H. Bolshaw, book keeper for R. B. Reppard. He is worthy the trust imposed in him. Willoughby Read, the humorist, en tortained our people last Tuesday night with recitations from various authors. From some cause the audi ence was much smaller than we antic ipated. A second appearance we think would be greeted with a large house. All honor to that noble widowed la dy, who, knowing and feeling the pangs of young widowhood, this week, in person, headed and carried around a subscription list for the present re lief and retnrn to. England of her who was so lately left alone in strange land. We hope none to whom she appealed failed to respond.' ing some of the material with which she was built.

A. Reppard with lumber for Phila delphia. Her next cargo will be tak en from Brunswick, as she is designed for the lumber trade of these two' ports. Captain Lako is part, owner, and is very proud of his beautiful craft, a description of which is ap pended hereto, taken from the Savan nah Times, “She was constructed at Petty’s Is land, N. J., by Messrs. Doughty & Kapclla last year. Her keel was laid iu May and she was launched in De cember, and if the work shown on this schooner is any criterion to go by, we are satisfied that the builders enjoy an excellent reputation as superior craftsmen. She is, with the excep tion of the two lower keels and the rails, constructed exclusively of Geor gia pine, famished by the mills of Mr. R. B. Reppard, in this State. The length of the keel is one hundred and forty-one feet, the depth of the bold thirteen and one-half feet, and the beam thirty-four feet. The length over all ie one handled and eeventy feet. She carries three masts and is supplied with the Intest improved rig ging and tackle, a patent stearing ap paratus and two immeuso anchors with ninety fathoms of chain attached to each. Her tonnngo is 459 04 and her official number 100,038. No one can fail to admire the beauty of her outlines. She is clippor built and sits on the water as gracefully as a swuu. Her cabin is divided into quarters for the first and seooud mate and other officers, which open into a spacious dining room, whilst beyond is the pri vate office and cabin for the captain, and two or three small families, all richly finished in ash, walnut, chest nut and wild cherry, with gilt trim mings, and supplied with handsome carpet and laxarions upholstery. This vessel is certainly a model of strength, beauty and finish.” 11 went well and merry, and in the bay of Oglethorpe hove in sight. Onr trip was full of unalloyed ' to-day under Mr. Tift’s guidance, we' chartered a small steam boat, and headed for the islunds and the beach, ever washed by the waves of the great Atlantic.

Suddenly., tho line tightens, the float disappeared, and the head way of the boat was checked, and the man at the capstan yelled out, “he’s hooked!” I have been fishing but I never saw the like of that. The fellow rose to the surface of the water and looked at us. He had about seventy- five yards of line out by this time, and actually, in a second, he made a rush and jumped clear over the bow of the steamer. The ladies then got under shelter, aqd all hands helped to hold that line. ' The fellow, when he failed to eat us up, made for the ocean and fairly made the waters foam. Af ter about a mile’s run ho began to tire and the boat was headed for the beach on Jekyl Island. Gradually we pulled in the line until the boat touched the beach, and then one of the hands waded ashore* taking the end of the line with lum, whioh he made fast to a stump and came buck for help. Four of ns got on shore und commenced to pull Mr. Shark ashore. It took all we could do, aud two rifle balls to boot, to land him. When I tell you that he measured seventeen feet ten and one- half inches from tip to tip .you will know wbat a job we had. Wo deter mined to prove that we canght this shark, so we gave two negroes $4.00 to cut him open, and get his head off, so that we could get his jaw over home. His teeth are wonderful, be ing about three and a qnarier inches long, and so strong that lie actually flattened out the big iron hook. The negroes made quite a prize. lu his stomach they found eleven silver Mex ican dollars and ono Spanish doubloon, gold, and a whole lot of old briiss but tons.
