Mr. John Hr-ok caught this week a monster drumii»h weighing sixt.'- niue pounds. The first shipment of brick for the new store of Moore & McCrary is be ing unloaded ns we go to press. The advertisement of the Bruns wick Bracket Works in our paper has brought them b nice order all the way from sunny Florida. Moral—Adver tise. Irish potatoes (big ones, of this years’ growth), simp-beans, enormous beets, cauliflower and cabbages, are among the good (.lungs ye editor has enjoyed this week. Eggs this week havo actually gotten down to twenty cents per dozen I— Well, if this announcement isn’t cause for congratulation, what is? We again lift oar voice in behalf of poul try farms. See card of our merchant tailor F. Warnke, who is prepared to do all he offers. Hu carries a large lino of sam ples, and can make for yon jnst such a suit as yon wish, both as to texture and quality. The theatre-going part of our com munity, and they are not a few, are waiting patiently for tho L’ariosos to get another play on oar boards as good as Hazel Kirke, which they think was par excellence. Somo careless colored lad this week threw a rock ut another lad, which missed its mark, but didn’t miss the large show window of the cigar store. That lad should bo made to pay for that broken window. Easter was duly celebrated by oar Episcopal friends. The Sabbath School enjoyed the occasion very much. Their wreaths, banneis, mot toes, crosses, etc., wore admirod by all who saw them. The woanded sailor, meutiou of whom was made in last issue os fall ing down the hold of the steamship, is doing as woll as could bo expected. His left knoo will probably be still', however, all his life. “Jackdaw” tells in this issue the reason old time plastering lasts so much better thuu now. His leasou- ing in good. Don’t know but it would be well for us to go u little slower m «neb mutters, ns suggested by “Jack daw." Judge Mershon returned yesterday from Americas, whore he has been presiding for Judge Crisp. He re ports everything lovely in that sec tion, and the crop prospects excellent. Judge Crisp presided this week in Coffee for Judge Mershon. Mallory’s line of steamships contin ue to make good time from New York (three days). They get here ev ery Monday night ns regular as clock work. This is as it should be. Punct uality in transportation is essuutial, and always receives its legitimate re ward. A party of twelve ladies and gen tlemen, from Macmi, Ims been spend ing the w. ck Dll f iiinlierhiU']. Hope tkoy have bad a nice time. lu this connection, we would ask, if the rail-- Members of two of the largest ua- vel Btore firms in the United States, located in New York, have been in onr city within the last two weeks, prospecting. We would not be sur prised if one or both of there bonnes should establish branches here. Such a move would be no detriment to our town. The more buyers the more shipping, and consequently, the more/ money handled here. Captain Allen, of the bark Norwell, bad on board bis craft last week what Mac Haywood called a “happy fami ly.” Finding a nest of young rats oo boardship, lie hi ought them out and threw them, nest and all, on to the deck, expecting to see Mrs. Pussey feast. Instead, however, her cut- sbip took thorn up one by one and laid them in her own bed aloug with her only kitten, and then quietly coil ed herself around them. The little ratships ran about over her perfectly at borne. The Telephone Exchange. Our telephone exchange is au as sured fact, tho requisite number of subscribers (26) having been obtain' nd. The contract for the poles has been given out and work Hlreudy be gun. The old Advertiser office at the corner of Newcastle and Monk streets has been selected for the central of fice or exebauge, and all wires will be attached there. As soon us the sys tem in all arranged, we have no doobt that many other subscribers will be added to the list. “The more the merrier,” for thereby a greater num ber of parties will bo brought into communication the one with the oth er, and the usefulness of the exchange enhanced thereby. We hope the rail roads, and St Simons and Gascoigne Mills will be added at an early day. For the benefit of those not yet mem bers of the exchange, who may wish to know the cost of membership, we will say that for ordinary distances, the cost is $16.00 por quarter. J. MiohelHon &. Bn). This firm moved the past week into their handsome new store on Gloucester street, where they will keep a splendid assortment of dry goods, clothing, notion’s, etc. Tho oastern one-half of the building has been fitted up for a' first-class family grocery store for’the town trade.— Their old stand (siuco the fire) iu the Collins building on Bay struet, will be still kept by them for heavy gro ceries, ship chandlers' stores, etc. The iry goods department is fitted up iu liuo style, and customers will be wait ed on by three lady clerks, who are familiar with the wants of their lady friends. The firm ask nt the hands of the public, that they come auil see tor themselves if they do nut under sell ucy other house in the conuty.— We bespeak for them a liberal share of public patronage. SpeciultiuM. We aro always pleased to note any thing looking to improvement. To compete with other markets, we must sell close. To do this, we must buy close, and to this end should deal in specialties as near os wo can. This idea iB fast gaining ground here.— Something over a year ago, our young friend It. F. Gpodbread conceived the idea of a cigar store—a thing never beard of here before. We are pleased to say he has been encouraged iu his effort, and to-day keeps the greatest assortmeut of tobaccos and cigars in M FAN P f We here been 5 quietly watching the movements of the M. & B. Railroad folks to determine what wns really their intent os to our place. Do they mean to make this their real termi nus, or simply to use us as a way sta tion, so to speak ? In short, whether they would seek to build up onr har bor aud place or ouly give us such fa cilities as could not well be avoided ? What we see before us, as a matter of coarse, is all we have as our guide to usxist ns iu onr conclusions, for rail road magnates don’t tell their plans. With the light before us, theu,and by way of answering our own questions as to what they mean, we would say they mutt mean business. The work now going od iu our harbor, in a quiet way, is too huge iu its propor tions to mean simply nothing. A half mile of embankment built out iu the marsh to Turtle river and broadened ns it approacbes said river to 500 feet and finished off with nn expen sive wharf, dredging in front, of that wharf its entire length to secure uni form depth, building ware houses, of fices, tracks, etc. on the same, new side-traoks, warp house, etc. in town, to say nothing of the new coaches be ing put on the line, new steel rails on the road bed in place of the old iron ones, in short, a general upward and onward tendency in everything surely portends something more than mere child’s play. Railroads don’t invest money by the thousnuds in boggy marshes and improvements of same simply for the pleasure of planting thoir money. We expect in another twelve months’ time to see big changes.in the business of our place. When the ex tension is completed to Rome, and nil connections made, these tracks and whnrves will be needed, and more, too, for with increased facilities, such as we will then have, we may reason ably expect more business men; if more business men, then more bnsi ness; if more business, more ships and other craft, eta—each item helping to swell the grand result, to-wit: The up-building of Brunswick and her port The tide has certainly set in Its swelling flood brings prosperity upon its crest to nil who will take advantage of the same. Nor should wo under-estimate the advantages to accrue from the faot that all of our western merchandise will not have to come through the “neck of the bot tle,” wltii'h, to v* Jimnmoickiav*, now extends all the way from Ghataiioogn to Macon. This, under the now re gime, will all he under one control, and we may rensonnbly expect dis patch—auil dispatch means more bus iness. Wf don’t believe we have overdrawn the picture. We hope iu twelve months more to see all we have bo far predicted, and possibly more. A Meetinir of tho Glynn County Ag ricultural Society and all others interested in the.

Mr. Editor: After the lapse of six thousand years, the Devil again tempts woman, not as lie did in the Garden of Eden—to partake of for bidden fruit, bat presumes to dictate her fashion. Now, we Imve three la dies doing business here in all the latest and most approved fashions, who have, no doubt, spent many anx ious moments working out the prob- Ioiii of—bow well and whot best wonld suit the taste of woman. Among some of the most tasteful and becoming is the beautiful aud comfortable hats (nit buggy umbrellas) worn this spring. Now, during the recent excellent performance of Hazel Kirke, some la- fly wore a hat (she had a right to wear a hat), and his Satanic majesty became offended and fires a whole broad-side, in the last issue of the Ad vertiser and Appeal, into ladies gen erally, and hats in particular, and par ticularly some particular hat worn by a particularly handsome young lady, who, nnfortnnately, occupied n par ticular seat in front of this same par ticular "Devil;” and, to say the h ast, he is getting to be devilish particular. Now there are always two sides to a question. The Indies complain that their enjoyment of Hazel Kirke was particularly marred by the classic and well-known “big head” of this same “Devil,” who sat just in front of them and who, to attract ns much ntteution as possible, kept that particular “big bead” bobbing unceremoniously from side to side. Now, in conclusion, Mr. Editor, I hope this same Devil will be a man, and that be may marry (if any lady can be found so foolish) and that his wife may rule this Devil’s ranebe; and that she may want, and force him to buv, a new hat every week, until be has hat enough of criticizing what la dies wear to shows, circases, theatres aud at homo. Yours sincerely, Lady's Hat. St. Simona Items. Our Sk Simons items arrived this week too late for us to do more than insert the following; Mr. W. J. Hays has just received an account of sales of cabbages sent to Atlanta, showing a general average of 14J cents per head. What crop pays better. The enterprising and never tiring John Currie is stocking the Island with marsh tackies. Mr. J. C. Chapman, an English gentleman, who Ims recently ptirchas ed large landed estates on the north ern portion of the Island, has suc ceeded in raibiug turnips this spring some of which weigh from ten to fif teen pounds each. Tho large driving wheel that pro pels the extensive machinery of St- Simons Mills burst into numberless atoms last Wednesday about 11 a. sl But as the management embraces a sot of men always ready for auy emer gency, there was soon another driving wheel in place, and the many saws connected with this mammoth estab lishment bnzziDg away at the same old tune, as if nothing had hoppened. Card of Thanks. Permit me to state throngh your columns that at the last meeting of the Excolsior Literary Society a vote of unanimous thanks was tendered the Gordonian Club for the kind and Fair Notes. Splendid music will be furnished to delight the ear and keep quiet the children during the Fair. All sorts of amusements may be counted on which will make you laugh regardless of maturing notes or dull times, a barrel of molasses has Ix-et, secured already, but just how it will be uutil- ized will require your presence to kuow. FIllE WORKS. A grand exhibition of fire works will he given on the Fair Grounds probably the second night of the Fair, This display will ho anew feature of our fairs, and season tickets will en title holder to a good seat to witness the display. GRATIFYING AS WELL AS PATRIOTIC. Liberal subscriptions hive been made by our merchants and others to defray expenses always preliminary in the successful creation of an agricul tural fair. This, with heavy assurance of liberal exhibits of soil productions, poultry and stock, encourage the be lief that the fair of 1882 will surpass all former exhibitions. The Strawberry Festival Given by the Mite Society has proven to be a success, notwithstanding all the mishaps. First, the berries were behind band, having been, by some body’s carelessness, three days in com ing from Tboma8ville to this place.— Result—94 quarts were not even ta ken from the express office.
