Local Matters. Lost and found. Three Days and Nights Without Food, Water or Shelter. On Sunday last Mr. Charles San- dys, inspector at St. Simons Mills, in company with Mrs. H. B. Gonld and daughter, Miss May Gould, came to Brunswick in a ship’s boat, propelled by two colored oarsmen, to attend the Easter service at St. Mark’s Episcopal church. Arriving at Mr. Watkins’ landing, the party tamed over to the oarsmen their overcoats .cloaks wraps, etc.,with instructions to be ready to re turn at 2 p. m. The party failed to put in tbeir appearance at the hour designated, but came at about 5 p. m. and fouud the negroes not there and tbeir bout left high and dry by the tide. Being informed by Mr. Watkins tbnt their boat could not begotten off before high water at midnight, they returned to the hotel to wait. About midnight they returned to their boat, and, finding mo oarsmen, concluded to go without them. Not being fa miliar with the route, they mistook tbeir way u d went up Cow-horn creek to its head, and there got aground at the highest stage of the tide, aud there they were left in the marsh, their friends in Brunswick supposing they had reached home in safety, aud their friends at the Mills supposing they were still in Bruns- wica, as one of the missing oarsmen had gone to the Island on the early morning trip of the Baby and stated that the party bad remained in B. to meet some friends who were expected from Liberty county. So matters stood ontil the owner of the boat began to make inquiries, mid after many messages, telegrams, etc., to and fro, the facts became known, both in Brunswick and at the Mills. This was Wednesday noon.— Boats at once set out from both places, and the party was'found, high and dry iri the marsh, as stated, hav ing been frotii Sunday night to.Wed nesday afternoon without food, water, shelter or wraps. On Wednesday morning a shower came up, and a lit tle water was caught, which refreshed them very much. They were taken to the Island, much exhausted, and Dr. Massey summoned. At this writ ing they are improving! Why the gentleman of the party did not get his boat off at high water Monday noon, or, failing iu this, did not take the marsh back to*Bruns wick for assistance, we hnvo not lean led; nor how it was that he did not notice, when he started up thnt creek, that he was pulling against tiih', and the creek getting narrower all the time; nor why be should have undertaken the trip at that hour, when he was warned of the danger by Mr. Watkins. Why I'hiHtei'iint Hum Not Stand. Mr t'dilor; lit your issue of the 1st th-t I noticed the query, “wby is it that plastering will not last as well i*oa as in oldeu limes?” I e*ml.t give you twenty reasons, but wiii state on ly ** few of the most important. “In ohleii times” all the large Umbers in a house were hewed, arid it required time to do it. It was sometimes years before the carpenter commenced to put the frame of a bouse together af ter the lumber was gotten oat, and it was certainly well seasoned. Then again, they did not trust to ten-penny nails to hold a building, bat every thing was mortised and braced. The laths of those days were split and well seasoned before being pat on, and the •plasterer was compelled to pnt on three-coat work, for the laths were so uneven thnt one cont of browning could not be made even or straight. By the time tbe plasterer got to work iu the building (which is very near tlie lust work in it) everything w» r sensoned and settled—henct no cracking. Now, Mr. Editor, in these days of railroads, saw mills and planing ma chines, a bouse is bailt in a much less time and a smaller cost to tbe owner than in former days. In ten days from the time tbe tree is eat at the * it has been «$wed t£ nt on the and tb and studs together. And in a few days, yes, very few days mote tbe plasterer is patting on laths that, in all probability, were sawed from trees that were standing in tbeir native for ests but three days before; and the mason bas to step around lively if he gets his 8x16 inch piers finished be fore the plasterer commences to put on bis mortar. Now, Mr. Editor, this is no fancy sketch, for you know there is a house now standing in Brunswick, built last May or June, that was bnilt in six days. These are a few of the many rea sons why plastering will not lost as well now ns in olden times. Very respectfully, Jack-daw.
