Altuough subscriptions to joint stock
company to build ears in Brunswick
bav.- only been solicited in a desulto
ry way for five days, $14,500 are al
ready subscribed, and $8,000 more
promised, and but « small portion of
our business men have, as yet, sab-
scribed. Subscription lists, with full
explanations can be found at Dunn
Glover’s And Dr. Burford’s stores, and
ip bands of John P. Harvey and G. P.
Goodyear. Persistent effort will give
us the the car factory and all its at
tending benefits.
As further evidence of the growing
imporiance of oar city, tve note the
presence of W. N. J. Godwin, Esq
who arrived this week on the U.
revenue steamer Boutwell, making
his annual visit of inspection on our
coast, in the interest of the U. S. ma
rine hospital service. The impor
tance of otir shipping interests re
quires some provision being made for
the care and medical attention of sea
men at this port. Mr. Godwin will
submit the report of his observations
here before the Surgeon General, who
will no doubt make the necessary ar
rangements in the matter.
Improvement Needed.
Yes, needed, qud that sadly. We
refer to the matter of coaches on the
M. k B. R. R., and particularly in the
second-class coaches. All roads fitted
up for first-class travel now-a-days
consider their lines incomplete with
out smoking cars and similar com
forts. Then, too, an improvement
might be profitably made in the sec
ond-class ears. Some of those now
in use are really filthy, and utterly
unfit for the purposes intended. Those
Dow in use might be very well contin
ued on the line for the raft hands,
but others, such as the S., F. k W.
uses, (half smoking and half second
class) should bo put ou in addition
This wo consider due tbo public, to
ptvveut a mixing of the races, for de
cent negroes don't care to ride iu such
places as ure provided, especially
when they pay full fan . Now if the
ownors of the road were poor,
should have nothing to say, but they
are uot. On tho contrary, they are
well able to put at least second-class
cars ou the line.
Heaolutioiis ->I Thanks-
The Baptist Sunday School of tlii
city receutly adopted the following
resolutions;
Resolved, That tho picnic had by us
at the minoral springs ou the 10th of
May will be long remembered ns oue
of the most pleasant occasions of our
lives.
Resolved, That our thanks are here
by tendered to our officers, touchers
and friends for their attentio and
kindness.
Resoloed, That our sincere thanks
be extended to Mr. A. T. Putnam for
having gratuitously furnished ample
transportation to and from the

Resolved, That the Brunswick Ai>-
vertiser ann Aipeal be requested to

Oat Crop.
From all sections comes tbs intelli
gence of a tremendous oat crop this
season, and certainly no fiuer weath
er for harvesting cuuld have been de
sired. Mr. T. D. Rurrison, of Cam
den, informs ns that be bas made
enough oats to last for two years. He
is one of the A 1 farmers of the coun
try, who believes that a man is no
farmer who, ns a rule, keeps bis gra
nary ont west. A thousand sueb
farmers as he would make this sec
tion fairly bloom. '
Personal.
We leuru that Dr. R. J. Massey, of
St. Siuiftns Mills, lets just purchased
a plantation of 1,500 acres on St. Si
mons Island. This would seem to in
dicate that the Docton was a fixture
there. He is enlarging his marine
hospital to accommodate twenty pu-
tlents at one time more than at pres
ent. We are pleased to note these ev
idences of his success, and trust we
may bo able soon to note still greater
changes.

COBFOBATK KNTtfHPBISK.
A movement is ou le*-t for tile start
ing of a car manufactory here. Not
merely talk about it but subscriptions
are being solicited and with gratify
ing results. The plan is to procure
subscriptions of $100,000—calls to be
made of 20 per cent., with which .to
commence, and not more than ten per
cent, per year to be called in for any
year after the first, the company to
create no indebtedness, but to rely
solely upon the money from cash calls
on stock for the transaction of busi
ness.
Should a location suited to the bus
iness be offered at a fair price, it to
be taken as 20 per cent, call upon
Stock, and mill mon furuisuiug lum
ber for the erection of buildings to
have it credited at market rates os 20
per cent, coll on stock—10 per cent, to
be paid upon organization for use in
erecting buildings aud procuring site,
etc., shares to be of $100 each, 10 per
cent, more to be paid in as working
capital before car building is com-
mouceti.
The above, in brief, is the plan for
organization of tho company. A sub
scriber for a share pays but $20 the
first year. If it is not determined to
increase the business, no further
calls will be made. If it is deter
miued to increase it, the highest
amount that can be called in for any
oue year is $10 per share.
We confidently look for success
from this effort aud arc satisfied it
will pay the investors heavily, besides
adding largely to our population aud
inducing other enterprises of like
character here.
Tho fucts upon which we base our
belief that it will succeed aro that car
factories ail over the country
ders have orders ahead for mouths
aud at high prices; that new roads are
projected all over the country which
it will tuke years to complete, insur
ing continuance of the demand and
good prices for cars; that the E. T. V.
A G. R. R. Company, whose M. <fc B.
division tonmnutes here, will necessa
rily bo 9 large customer for its 14,000
miles of Southern roads, and tho Er-
langer system also will be a custom
er; so will the S. F. & W. and the nu
merous roads in Florida now in pro
cess of construction, for freight of curs
—an important item—will be avoided
by the Erlauger and Cole-Seney sys
tems of road, and nearly so by tLio S.
I * 1 '. A W. aud Florida roads; that cur
luctnrics are all making money and
the Curtersville factory receutly de
clared a tiividend of two aud one-half
per cent.; that tho lumber is all with
in eusy reach of the finest quality for
the purpose, aud that the iron and
other material, wheels uud axles etc.,
can be laid dowu here by water trans
portation, the cheapest and best for
heavy national. We think the above
reusons amply ivarraut our faith iu
the success of the enterprise.
But to these we odd two importaut
fucts: John P. Harvey, master cur
builder B. & A. Railroad Company,
has built six platform cars ut a saving
to tho Railroad Company of $30.00
per car, and a mail and baggage car
at a saving of $700 on tho oar, and is
at work on a second mail and baggage
cur, which he will build yet cheaper,
aud this without the machinery used
in car factories, and Harvey will, wo
piVMime, have charge of the construc
tion of cars in the new company.
Every laud owner ought to make a
cash subscription, for the factory will
increase the value of bis lauds; every
in* reliant, because it will put more
money iu circulation uud bring more
here to be fed and clothed, uud every
other class of business men should
subscribe because it increases the bus
iness of the city and thus increases
theirs. We shall note with interest
the success of the effort to get the
subscriptions, aud hope soon to
chronicle the successful organization
of the compauv.
John P. Harvey aud C. P. Good
year each have a subscription paper,
both clearly stating the terms upon
which the subscription is made, so
drawn as to carefully protect the
rights of subscribers.
HT. SIMONS ITEMS.
The turtle has made its appearance
upon the beaches of Long Island ami
St. Simons. Every night at high wa
ter they may be found drifting to the
beach to bury their eggs in the sand.
For the next six weeks Cuffy waxeth
fat and independent.
John Butler, slave of Pierce Butler,
of St Simons, did not nurse George
Washington, but drove the carriage
when General Washington visitdR
the South. He was probably the old
est man, white or black, that has ever
lived ou St. Simons since the depart
ure of the red man. He wns said to
be between 130 and 140 years of age
at his deHtb.
Mr. Andy Mock, of Frederica, cap*-
tnred two large turtles, weighing one
thousand pounds in the aggregate,
and found a barrel full of turtle eggs
on Long Island bench last Saturday.
Having exerted himself so much to
capture and bring to St. Simons his
valuable prizes and having on Sunday
and Monduy reveled iu luscious steak
and eggs so much, he has been quite
sick from the result.
S-k-j-o-l-d-m-o-e-n! The offer is
still open another week—a six month's
subscription to any boy or girl, nnder
fifteen years of age that will give a
correct pronunciation of the above,
provided the one giving the correct
pronunciation is not aided and is not
a Norwegian. We hove several an
swers to last week’s proposition, none
correct, however; also, another six
months' to a boy or girl under fifteen
giving the best account of who or
whut Skjoldmoen means, both to be
decided by Captain Olsen, of bark
Skjoldmoen, now anchored at St,. Si-
Simons. Open till 10 a. m., June 1st.
Ou last Sunday the remains of Aunt
Elsoy Robinson were consigned to the
dust at the ripe old age of 113. She
was the property of the Morel estate,
and brought from Savannah to the Is
land iu 1800 by Mr. Thomas Cater, to
whoso estate she has belonged ever
since, Captain James Postell having
succeed him in the ownership of said
estate. She was, at her death, the
oldest person, white or black, living
ou tho Island. When brought to the
Island she was a woman ndvanced in
years, being the mother of many chil
dren. She has not done any work
for ut least forty-five years, being su
perannuated. She lived to see her
fifth if not sixth generation. Her
Hugest child on the Island is iu his
sixty-eighth your.
“My good woman what have you
done for your husband ?” asked the
doctor, who bad been called to see
colored man and brother confined
bed three woeks with typhoid fever.
“Wy, sir, I’s done all I kin. I give
some ob dem draps you leff for de
chile las wiuter when she hab de col
ic; brudder Wesley bring dem pills
wat you gin him fur de spine ob back
—I gin six ebery night fur two weeks;
deiu ole powders dat Miss Annie gin
Bob for mumps, bee-ten, sbark-oil,
turtle grease, hartshorn, cttmphnr, liv
er Tutt pills und still him loss he ap
petite. Him strenk weak, and him
’bout to loss his breff." After the nar
ration of tuis long list of medication,
the doctor quietly withdrew from the
case. Next day Cnffia had “dime loss
him breff” for good.
Early last month (April) an acci
dent to oue of the circulars at St. Si
mons Mills caused a stoppage of that
sn« for several weeks. A broken pul
let subsequently stopped the other
circular aud gang. At this time there
Were iu port a fleet of twelve vessels,
Cttllii g for over three million feet of
lumber chartered from these mills.—
This is a pretty good fleet and
amount of lumber due from a well
mill, let alone a disabled one. The
men ut St. Simons Mills being made
of the right sort of materiul, like to
see things going along right, and all
took bold with a vim to get every
thing in working order ogoiu. Many
worked day and night to accomplish
the desired end. By dint of good
management and plenty of hard
work, the mill was put to running m
first-class order, Hint, with hut j,ttl e
assistance from a neighboring
the whole fleet was loaded over a
week ago, without any demurrage.—
This, under the circumstances, i 8a
victory well worth recording. And
as it a well-conceded axiom in milita
ry tactics that a good general makes a
good army, so, in sawmill manage,
inent, a good superintendent makes a
good working crow. The worthy 8 „.
periutendent may justly feel proud of
this achievement.
Little Folks »t L’arioso.
The repetition of theentertainment
by the school children, at L’arioso
Hall, on Thursday night, for the ben
efit of their musical directress, was, if
possible, an improvement on the for
mer exhibition, aud as before little
Miss May DuBignon and Master Al-
van Rowe won the prolonged applause
of the audience. All did remarkably
well aud reflected much credit ou all
concerned.
