« The Brnnswicic post-office pVora
kses to assume unusual importance be
f or e the country. ' The Geoigia Syti-
dicate, or the Longstreefc-Farrow-At-
jrins political combination, secured
fbe nomination of JvJ.Newtop^'onp
If ue,” though President Arthur lmd
■to adopt ft vefy uuusual method to
l a ccarnmodate these statesmen. Mr.
Ivjortb, who now fills the office, has
Iserved a full tejjm to the entire B/etia-
Ifaction to the people of Brunswick.—
|He was a union soldier, and was so
Inounded that one arm' is useless. He
■is in delicate heatth. In short, bis
I condition, his services, his record give
I him a strong claim on the office, Zt
Las in view of these circumstances
I that the President nominated him fat
[ another term. He was promptly oon-
I firmed. Soon, however, it was discoy-
lered that this office was needed in the
I schedule arranged for building up tl^e
I party in Georgia, and Mr. Newton
I was the man to work it up on that
I line. Fresh on his confirmation camb
I the nomination of North’s succcessor.
■ The mayor and leading citizens tele-
I graphed at once to the Georgia Sena-
[torstohold np the confirmation of
I Newton. Brunswick seems particu-
Jlarly solid for North. He is here
I working np considerable interest in
I his case by the plain recital of bis
I treatment. No reason is given for bis
I removal except the weak suggestion
| of bis having had the offioe long
The truth is, North was not
I much of a Stalwart on the Grant-Ar-
I thnr line or much of a coalitionist on
I the Longstreet line, and inquiries in-
I to his qualifications further than' this
I were out of order under the new pat
ent method of filling the Georgia offi
ces. He seems to be a quiet, clever
gentleman who had little to do with
I politics, and though a firm Republi-
I can, thought it better to give the peo
ple of Brunswick a first-class post-of
fice than to go howling around on po
litical crusades, or bothering himself
with making traps to captura the
groat State of Georgia. 3 '
Mr. Newton is said to Ibo &* very
clever gentleman, but he will go be
fore the Senate handicapped and with
tbo administration and the Georgia
syndicate both backing him, I doubt
| if he wins tho race. •
Colonel Farrbw ought to bo able to
I keep up the coalition boom in Bruns-
! wick. The administration might send
Mr. Newton to some bther field.
Visit to Frederica.
On Monday wo went over to St Si
mons Mills to attend the funeral of
Jessie, daughter of Mr»and Mrs. For
syth. After the service the body was
carried to the burial ground at.Fred
erica. While at the burial ground, a
huge oak tree was pointed out to us
as tho one under winch Mr. Wesloy
preached. _ This monarch of the for
est certainly bears the marks of great
age. It evidently has withstood the
storms of many years, bnt it is now
fast going to decay. We noticed al
so a hoqse if the Igrqunds formally
used as a place of worship, whose age
we are afraid even to guess at. Tho
roof has rotted away, but the walls are
still standing, and strange to say,
while the wood is perfectly decayed,
tho plastering, though considerably
tarnishjfl, is os soymlktmtt ffed from

Little Sntilln Clay-
Mr. Editor: For your kind remarks
In the Advertiser ahd Appe.il in re
gard to' “Little Satilla clay” I thank
lyou. We certainly have good clay
there—Entirely free from lime, and
ljust thd thing to make good brick.—
We also bavo plenty of wood handy
ito burn 1 tho brick. Now if you Uuow
!of anyone who would like to put ex-
neriencb and n little capital into the
business, send him on, and oblige,
Little Satilla.
Accompunying the above note was
a sample of the clay, which, to our
inexperienced eye,. seems all that
oould be desired. Tho dom^nd lot
brick is certainly imperative, and a
ready market is nssnred. If any one
desires to supply the experience aud
capital, we will be pleased to give him
any information in our power.
