SATURDAY MOUSING. JUNE M. 18W.
! UK lUVKU AND HARBOR BILL.
The river end harbor bill as it
ptNhOll the house ou Saturday, con
tains the following items of special
interest to the people of Georgia:
Brunswick harbor $15,000
On inberJand nonnd .. 60,000
Savannah harbor 200,000
Apalachacola bay 25,000
Altamaha rivsr 15,000
Chuttahoocheo river 25,000
Coosa river 83,000

Osteuaula and Coosawatte* river* LWW
Savannah river,.... 25,000
Apslacbacola river 2,000
Tennessee river below Chattanooga 250,000
Romney marsh and Jekyl river
Of the amount appropriated for im
proving Flint river, $16,000 is to be
expended below Albany, and the re
mainder between Albany and Monte
zuma. The-Savannah river item is to
be expended between Savannah and
Augusta, and the engineers are to de
cide on what route the money for the
improvement of liomney marsh shall
be expended. The large item for the
Tennessee river is to be chiefly ex
pended in overcoming Muscle Shoals
and giving uninterrupted navigation
tip to Chattanooga.
The - appropriation for Georgia
proper foot np $118,000. This is u
considerable sum, but it loses its ap
parent magnitude when we hud that
the entire bill appropriates $17,342,
875, or nearly ball 1 a million for eneb
S. ate including all the little ones. On
the basis of population Georgia would
be entitled to about, lifty per cent more
thun is allotted her. But still wo will
not grumble if Congress keeps up the
lick until our bnrbors arc accessible
and our rivers navigable.
Later.—Later news from Washing
ton shows that .Senator Brown is not
satisfied with the above figures, aud
seeks to change them. Noticeable
umong these is the amount for the
Brunswick, which he wishes to make
$40,000. We bo|H> lie may succeed.

The following just and compliment
ary allusion to Hon. A. O. Bacon is
taken from the Atlanta correspond
ence of the Savannah New*:
"As to speaker Bacon, I know of no
public man in all my long career os
correspondent in Congress and State
Legislature who has displayed such
patient ami laborious fidolity to iris
duties. For twelve years he has been
iu the Georgia General Assembly,
two days during that time—once on
acconnt of bis own illness and again
because of the sickness of his wife.—
In these days of congressional and
legislative absenteeism, eucb a record
should be emblazoned in letters of
gold upon the State’s coot of Arms.—
Speaker Bacon deserves all the honors
Georgia can bestow upon a public ser
vant so faithful for years in oue labo-
ious office.”

A Brunawioltian Abroad.
Catoosa Springs, June 20,1882.
Editor Adveriiter and Appeal: I will
drop you a few lines from the moun
tains of North Georgia, to mention a
few facts in regard to this region, and
tell yon my personal experience since
I left Brunswick.
I arrived at Catoosa Springs on the
8th inst., in very feeble health, but af
ter a couple of days began to improve
rapidly, and though I have had one
or two slight temporary relapses,
consider myself very much better
than when I came.
The springs are at the tapering
western end of the Blue Ridge moun
tains, and are between seven and
eight hundred feet above the level of
the sea. There are some twelve or
fifteen kinds of mineral waters within
a space of two acres, and they repre
sent principally iron, sulphur, alum
and magnesia, with some twenty oth
er mineral ingredients, varying iu
amount and proportion, in the differ
ent springs. The locality is quite in
teresting. The springs thomselvus
are in a little shady basin, and give
rise to u little running stream. As
the ground rises the hotel buildings
appear only one or two hundred yards
off. There are two muin edifices, and
long rows of single and double cot
tages, capable altogether of accorn
modntiug from fonr to five hundred
gnests. The accommodations and at
tendance are good, the table abun
daut and well served, and the mana
gers are attentive to visitors, especial-
ly if they are sick. Trains arrive at
the station, two miles away, four
times a day. The nights are always
cool, aud there are no mosquitoes.
I have received the Advertiser and
Appeal regularly since I have been
here, uud it always affords mo comfort
to know that things are. going ou well
and prosperously at home.
I have myself derived so much
benefit, from the waters here that I
wish to advise all my ailing friends to
follow my example and give Catoosa
Springs a trial. P. H. Creamer.
THE FINDING OP’ DELONG.

New York, June 30.--The Herald
has the following particulars of the
discovery of DeLong’s party: After
Melvill reached the neighborhood
where Winderroau aud Noros left De-
Long, ho found the wreck of a crew,
aud soon catno upon a rifle barrel
supported by fonr sticks. Digging
near the sticks they found two bodies
under eight feet of snow. Exploring
further, Melvill found a tent aud a
camp kettle, and the remains of a fire,
and approachiug, nonrly stumbled up
on DeLong’s band sticking out of the
snow about tbree feet from the edge
of the bank. Here, under about a
foot of snow, they found the bodies of
DoLong and Ambler about three feet
apart, and A. H. Sam l.viug at their
feet, all partially covered by pieces of
tont and new pieces of blanket. All
the others, except Alexia, they found
at the place the tents were pitched.—
Leo and Koch wore close by iu a clofl
in the bank towards the west. None
of the doud had boots. Their feet
wore covered with rags tied ou. In
the pockets of all were pieces of burnt
skin clothing, which they bad been
eating. The hands of all were more
or less burned, and it looked as if
when dying they hod crawled into
the fire, and Boyd was lying over the
fire, his clothing being burned to the
skin, which was not bunted. Collins’
face was covered with a cloth. All
a hill 300 feet high about forty versts

were found, and there interred in a

high, surmounted by a cross twenty
feet high and a foot square, hewn out
of drift wood, and conspicuous at a
distance of twenty versts.
