J ivafistt and JgfA T. <5. STACY. Editor and Proprietor. S R U NS WICK, - GEORGIA: 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 Fliut river. 25,000 Ocmulgee river 5,000 Oconee river, 5,000 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. NEW POST ROUTES, At the instance of our immediate 'Representative, Hon. Goo. R. Black, the following new post routes have bean established in the First Gou- gressional District by actofCongross: From Bliteh to Statesboro. From Mill Haveu, via Mitehelton, to Sylvania. From Excelsior to Swuinsboro. From Fdon to Hinely. From Egypt, via Moore’s Mills, to Crumley’s. From Fleming to Dorchester. From Scnrboro to L. F. Pheiffor’s. From Scarboro to Dr. E. W. Lane’s. From Horndon to Garfield. COMPLIMENTARY TO WON. A. O BAQON. 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.” An exchange says. "Mr. Brudwell of Liberty county, Hon. John C. Nich ols of Pierce,Judge Mersbon of Glynn, Mr. Gignilliat and Mr. Epping of McIntosh, Col. J. L. Warren and Hon. A. P. Adams, ol Chatham, we leuru have all signified their readi ness to sacrifice home comforts to fill Col. Geo. R. Block's place iu the U. S. Congress. much of the time as speaker of the mf>vu i w house, and yet hus beeu absent but bodies wore carried to the top of 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. Kiirhf FVet Under the Know -The arty Buried on a Hill. 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 to the southwest from shere they were found, and there interred in a mausoleum constructed of wood from the scan, built in the form of a pyra mid twenty-two feet long and seven 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. Governor Stephens, of Georgia—we may as well begin to call him Govern or—will begin to stninp the State as soon tut he receives the Democratic Guberiiatoriol nomination. - IViuAiny- ton Pont. Well, but suppose be don't get the nomination ! What then V Hail stones are said to have fallen recently in DuBuqne ns large as san- De.ir, ruble, self-sacrificing fellows! leers. The most of the fall was the They ought all to have the position. size of oranges. AMONG THE PAPERS. GEORGIA. Albany’s second Artesian well will be done in a few days. Hall county will vote on the fenoe question next month. Smith Clayton’s Oscar Wilde lec ture cleared him $150 in Atlanta. The Bacon boom continues to swell. Look to your laurels, Mr. Stephens. Perham wants Quitman to have a canning establishment for vegetables. Improved agricultural machinery is mooting with a heavy sale through out the State. ’Tis said that Georgia will raise this year 5,000,000 bushels of fruit of different kinds Not a single white person, young or old, has died within the limits of the town of Madison within a year. Geo. Crane, of Dougherty, who whipped his ehild to death about two montliB ago, has been captured. A correspondent from Montgom ery county says: “Hon. A. O. Bacon is the choice of the people for Gov ernor.” An extension to the library build ing in Augusta is to be made, to con sist of tbree siories of teu rooms each, to cost $17,000. • Jeff Davis has refused to lecture in Atlanta, under the auspices of the Young Men’s Library Association, on account of ill bealtb. Bill Arp has dramatized Mark Twain’s “ Tom Sawyer,” which re ceived its first presentation iu Rome on the 20tb inst., by a company of amateurs. Tho can. of the brutal treatment of the young Italian iu Douglasville, by officers of the law, is undergoing le gal investigation, and a decision has not been vouched at this writing. Dan Mclnnis has been elected Sheriff of Berrien county by a unani mous vote. Only niue ballots were polled in tho entire county. This shows that the poople are too busy to bother with politics. A young man named Henry Guest, employed at Fuller’s mill, near Dub lin, was this week cut almost in twain by a circular saw, against which be was thrown hy some falling lumber from the saw carriage. J. T. Manntl, publisher of the Tv Ty Meho, has been arrested, charged with the murder of one Buchanan, a tramp. Ho was arrested once before -under the same charge, but the evidence was not sufficient to commit. An Augusta darkey last week en tered the residence of Major Crane early iu the evening, with a view to plunder. Ho took his position under bed, but, becomiug weary, fell asleep, and was thus captured. The through passenger on the W. & A. Railroad telescoped five cars of a freight train on the turn-out at Kingston, utterly demolishing five cars and the engine of the passenger, and killing the fireman, Geo. Bass. Ross Avery and Dick Dodson, both colored, of Atlanta, quarreled last Saturday night. Dodson struck Avery with a brick, fracturing his skull, and made bis esoape. At last accounts the wounded man was in a very critical condition. The board of visitors of the State University recommend the establish ment of a polytechnic school in con nection therewith. This is sound reason, and advocates a policy which, if generally carried out, would in a few years work a vast change in the prosperity of the South. A water wheel has been invented by Mr. H. S. Holder, of Macon, which will revolutionize water wheels. It can be placed iu n river, and will run as well twenty feut under witter ns only half way out, aud can also be run in any size stream. The Ifarnvsville Gazette promulgates this item, which is suggestive: “Out of a voting population of between three hundred and fifty, there are said to be only about twenty who do not use liquor, tobacco or other stim- Tbe new steamship Tallahassee, of the Ocean Steamship Line, will be launched on the 15th prox., and Gov. Bloxbam, of Florida, has been re quested to appoint some young lady of Tallahassee to go North, with an escort, as a guest of the company, to christen the new vessel. An old colored man near Savonnah befriended a colored tramp, who, in return, robbed^ the, old mau and sloped. The victim pursued him on foot, and overtook him at No. 3, S., F. & W. Railroad, and captured him with the assistance of some of the residents. He was returned to Sa vannah the next morning with a chain arouud his neck, and turned over to the law. John Turner, of Chatham, in 1874 was sentenced to ten years in the pen itentiary for the killing of a man. In 1875 Robert Young, of the some county was convicted of burglary aud sentenced to fifteen year’s imprison ment. They were both sent to Dade coal Aines. It now turns out, after eight years of suffering, that Turner is not the guilty party, as Youug has confessed the crime under a religions awakening. Turner hus been par doned. OUTSIDE THE STATE. Texas has had several lyuchings and murders this week. Tennessee’s grain crop is the best ever harvested in that State. Only eight vessels in the port, of Jacksonville on lust Saturday. At Little Rock, Ark., two men quarreled and killed each other with shot-gnus. Missouri aud Iowa have had a tor nado to the extent of about $75^1,000 aud several lives. # Thank gracious, Guiteau is not a Georgian, but he will soon be in the hemp higher state, so to speak.—Ex. Nineteen men were caught under a falling wall at u fire iu Boston, and twelve seriously if not fatally injured. Guiteau will end his erratic and useless career on the scaffold next Friday. He still expects miraculous interposition. A Texan woman was alone on her husband's ranehe, when au Apache Indian attempted to outrageously as sault her. She shot him through the head with a Winchester rifle. Fortress Monroe is the largest sin gle fortification in the world. It has already cost over $3,000,000 of mon ey. Tbo water battery is considered to bo one of the finest places of mili tary construction iu the world. The ship Freeman Clarke has just arrived in New York from Calcutta, iu charge of the mate, who reports that ou May 27th the captain, while asleep in his berth, was literally hack ed to pieces by the Chinese steward, aud tbut he, the mate, was simultane ously attacked by the Chinese cook, but that he succeeded in obtaining assistance. The two Mongolians were killod and thrown overboard. A RAILWAY TELEGRAPH. Special lo Atlanta Constitution. Toccoa, June 19.-A trial was made here this afternoon of the William's rail-way telegraph with most satisfac tory results. A car which bad a tele graph instrument in it was run over the track in which the device bad been placed and perfect telegraphic communication was established. Mes sages were sent to and from the car while running over the line at a speed of twenty-five miles an hour with per fect ease aud accuracy. The rail-war officials and all others present agreed fully that the device was, in every re spect, successful. Ti-orti*- in Holv Pictures. St. Petersburg, June 20.—A reso lution adopted by the holy synod, and which received the sanction of tie Emperor, prohibits persons not Clin.-- | tians from publicly trading in h.-yl pictures, crosses or vessels use Christian worship. An old gentleman asked a newsp*. per man recently to let him know i n his next issue “What a house wa s without a newspaper?” The editor r«- sponded by stating that “It was a place where old bats are stuffed into window frames, where the children ore like young pigs, the housewife like an aboriginal savage, the busbar with a panorama of thJ dismal swamp painted on his shirt bosom with to bacco juice, and the general outlook resembling the home of a dopraved heathen.” Augusta, Ga., May 26,1881. W. H. Barret, Augusta, Ga. Dear Sir.—Having used yonr H. H P. Liver remedy, and beiug gteatly benefitted, I wish to add my testimo nial for the benefit of all suffering in any way with torpid liver, dyspepsia, etc. As to the efficacy of the remedy —I found it the best remedy I ever tried, being gentle in its action, and entirely harmless.
