Head a communication from P. W.
Brewster, agent of R. B. Reppard,
stating that Mr. Palmier, of tho Bruns
wick Division of the E. T. V. & Ga.
Railroad, bad requested him to move
his lumber from the front of his of
fice and one of the wharves, over
which he was shipping lumber, so
that he could put in a new side track;
that be was much surprised thereat,
for the reason that he was not aware,
that any such right had been granted
to the railroad by the recent action of
Council, and from what he could learn
such was not the intention of Coun
cil; that he most strenuosly objected
to giving all the room asked for by
tho road, as the same had been used
as a lumber yard ever since the road
was built; and, therefore, asking
Council to take immediate steps to
have tbo matter properly adjusted.,
which was received and tbon referred
to the committees on railroads and
streets drains and bridges, with au
thority to adjust the matter.

said Vinardell had become discour
aged and declined to carry on tho

was receivod and laid on tho table.

Jesse Wilder,
J. P. Harvey,
J. R. Cook,
Committee.
By Aid. Littlefield: Resolved, That
a committee of three, with His Honor,
the Mayor, be appointed, whose duty
it shall be to draft a memorial, asking
Congress to make each an appropria
tion as may be required to complete,
or, at least, continue the improvement
of oar harbor.
The resolution was unanimously
adopted, and His Honor, the Mayor,
announced the following committee:
Aid. Littlefield, Harvey aud Cook.
The committee, after retiring for a
short time, returned and submitted
the following:
To the HonorMe Senate and House of
Representatives of the United States
in Congress Assembled: ,
We, the Mayor and Council of tho
city of Brunswick, Ga., having learned
that no appropriation will probably
be made by the Congress for the con
tinuance of the improvement of our
harbor, or, if it bo made, that it will
be so small that but little practical
good can result therefrom, respect
fully submit,
That our city and port nro rapidly
increasing in population and commer
cial importance—so rapidly, in fact,
that we must insist, that justice to
ourselves and the common country
demands that the work should not bo
abandoned, oven for a time; aud par
ticularly when we take into consider
ation that tho cost of the entire work,
when compared with tho hundreds of
thousands and millions of dollars that
are being expended nt other points,
and at points, too, whoso natural ad
vantages shrink almost beyond insig
nificance when compared with those
of Brunswick. We dosiro most ear
nestly to impress upon you tho rap
idly growing commercial importance
of our city nud port. Our business
required ono hundred and seventy-
seven vessels for the year 1876, which
was increased to two hundred nnd
twenty-five vessels for tho year 1877,
and then to threo hundred and thir-
ty-fivo for tho year 1881. Wo have
had eighty-four vessels during Janu
ary aud February of this year, and the
number for the entire year will, no
doubt, reach five hundred; und this
increaso of business is not equalled,
wo thiuk we can safely say, by that of
any other port in the United States.
Two of the great railroad systems of
the South and West (tho Cole nnd
tho Erlanger) now own the two rail
roads running out from Brunswick,
and are each rapidly extending their
linos, North, West and South, so as
to make connections with all the im
portant points of the entire country;
and when these two great systems
shall have been perfected, aud wbeu
all tho business which the two systems
will control shall have been brought
to Brunswick, ns they propose doing,
our port will certainly become sec
ond to no other in commercial im
portance in tho South, at least. Our
port is, beyond all question, the near
est, the best, the most healthy nnd the
most capacious that can be reached on
the Atlautio coast from all the country
—from Cincinnati und Chicago clear
around westwnrd to and down the
Pacific ocenu; and all the vast nud
varied productions of this immense
territory, when developed, must nud
will naturally seek and find an outlet
through the port of Brunswick. . All
the millions so freely spent at other
points will never overcome the natu
ral advantages possessed by the port
and city of Brunswick. She stauds,
like Saiil of old, full bead and should
ers above all her fellows, and she will,
but unlike Sanl most surely retain,
and, iudeed, more than retain her
her great prominence, if tho very
slight obstruction in the inner harbor
be removed. The cost of the entire
work, when fully completed, will uot
exceed, all told, from the first to the
last appropriation, one hundred thou
sand dollars, while millions have been
already expended on other harbors,
which will nave to be followed bv oth
er millions before completion, if ever
completed by the nse of money.
In view of these and other indis-
pntablo facts that we could mention
had we the time, and which are,
doubtless, known to many of you, we
do think that onr great natural ad
vantages should be fostered and pro
tected by the Government; and we
mast, therefore, insist—and strongly
insist—that simple justice, not only
to the people of onr own State, but
to all the people living, and to here
after live, within all the vast territory
previously mentioned, demands such
an appropriation as will permanently
remove the obstruction, and thus
place Brunswick on one of the great
highways of the globe, and also enable
her to become, at no very distant day,
one of the great commercial and fi
nancial centres of .the world.'
The memorial was, on' motion of
Aid. Spears, received and signed by
the members present, and the Clerk
of Council instructed to forward a
copy of * the same to our Senators,
Messrs. Brown and Hill, and Geo. R.
Black, our immediate Representative
in the House.
The finance committee stated that
they had beon unable, from unavoid
able absence, to examine the bills for
the month of February, and the Clerk
and Treasurer was instructed to pay
snob as should be approved by them,
aud report the same to the next meet
ing of Council.
Council then adjourned.
