Geo. R. Black seems to indicate his finnl complete recovery. We trust- sneh may indeed prove true. Mrs. Scoville’s effort to bring the mutter of Gniteau’s insanity before a Chicago court, on her application for guariliauship, will not work, Colonel Ib-ed thinks. Gniteau’s last chance is a direct ap peal to the President for pardon. He claims that Arthur owes bis position to him," and as such should use it ii saving bis neck. Tbs Comptroller of the Currency has decided to issue a new $5 note; embellished with a |iortruit of Gur- rielil. We call for a vote with a pic ture of Guiteau’s execution.

We note with especial interest that their work in this behalf has been im partial, the needs of both Savannah and Brunswick being ably and forci bly presented before the committees. The municipal autorities of the cities of Albany, Macon and Atlanta have come to our aid with strong memori als, realizing that the improvement of our harbor is a matte! of deep con cern to their people. Mayor Wheat on, Mr. Wiirien, and others from Sa vannah, while urging the claims of Savannah, generously, aud with broad aud liberal spirit worthy of praise, also presented the claims of Brunswick to recognition by the com mittee. Major A. O. Bueno, the consistent friend of material development, aptly and ably presented the needs of our two harbors ol Savauuah and Bruns wick before the committee. All movements cnlmiluted to add to the material prosperity of the people, to develop the wouderful resources of the State, fiud in him a faithful and earnest advocate. Could we do better tiiau to place him in the Governor’s office, where, as Governor of our State, he would have ample scope for the broad and progressive ideas, tempered by true conservatism, which lie has demon strated, by his acts in the past, are possessed by him ?

It is earnestly requested of each county to send as many dele gates as they can, as we desire alnrge attendance, and the Secretaries of the various county convention will please notify R. B. Reppard, Esq., at Savan nah, and also ,J. C. Courtenay, at At lanta, of the names of the delegates to attend from each county, that enter tninment may he provided. The Sa. vannnh, Florida and Western Rail way, and the Brunswick & Albany Railroad, have consented on this oc casion for delegates to pay full fare coming down, and be returned free upon presentation to the conductors of the proper certificate from the Sec retary of the Convention. We trust their generous act may be appreciate cd, mid a large delegation sent from the counties , long the line of these roads. Delegates will be taken care of id Savannah by applying to tue by letter in advance. We are very anx ious to bave a large representation from every county Iti the State, und more especially from the counties ly ing along the Savauuah, Florida and Western Railway and the Brunswick and Albany Railway, as they have never been well represented in the State Sunday School Convention.

Mr. Hnounoi consent la* bpBf c. of A’tfanta^Ge&rgia, ffir ai tiou for improving the barbor of Atlanta, Georgia.” The harbor of Atlanta, or,.in other words, the noble Chattahoochee, needs improving up at least 'kk- far ns Atlanta, but when Mr. Hammond had the memorial printed iii full in thc Record, the illu sion was dispelled. It relates to the harbor of Bruuswick. The city of Atlanta officially nskH Congress to carry on the work already pluuned for the harbor of Brunswick. This work is now suspended on account of a want of funds. The words of the me morial that follow constitute a com prehensive argument in favor of such an appropriation. The memorialists say; “Connected as our city will be by next July with this port through the extension of tho Macon & Bruns wick railroad, which at this point taps roads reaching every section of our common country, aud on the line of the vast system of loads nearly ce mented together by the Cole-Smi-v syndicate, which offer a new avenue of transportation for thevustand ever increasing products for export from the great west and north-west,through a section free from iee and snow, the harbor of Brunswick being the sontli- Atlantic terminus of this system of roads, ample for the transaction of a vast commercial business, only iieeeds the expenditure of a comparatively small sum to m ike it all that can be desired for the transaction of sneli business. We nod the people we rep resent are deeply interested in the speedy completion of this work, and earnestly urge our immediate repre sentative in Congress and your hon orable body to take early action and grant an appropriation equal to the necessity and ample to complete the work.” Congress cannot place $75,000 where it will do more good than at Brunswick. Nature has done a great deal for the harbor in question, and the expenditure of a reasonable sum oY the government would make it one of the best in the world. And the business that will soon seek our most southerly harbor will fully justify an expenditure much larger than Con gress is asked to make. We are glad that in the strife for appropriations Brunswick is not likely to bo over looked, and tho hope tile new appro priation will bo large enough to carry ou as rapidly as may ho practicable tho plans that have already been ap proved by the government engineers.
