Col. 8hadmnn had yam potatoes in

There has recently been on St. Si
mons a earricatnre upon the human
species who has buried his (ifth wife,
lie uisguHtiugly boasted that he loved
his first wife better than any of the
others.
An aged negro woman, hearing of
Mr. Norman Dodge’s valuable gift of
books, to l>e used os a library for tbe

Tbe conjunction of the moon with
the planets Mercury and Venus,
whilst Mars was in prmsepc, the moon
running at its highest, Ascension Day,
Holy Thursday, and the anniversary
of the birth days of three gentlemen
connected with Gascoigne Mill, all
occurred this year on the 18th of May.
The ‘-Hoodoo Doctor,” with his rat
tlesnake heart and other like charms
in his pockets, has been among ns.—
His "ciroular” bolds forth thnsly:—
• Any person that wants to have their
fortune told, onto mesmorj/ed by nay
process of mesmerizing all kinds of
disoases,” “I give bands for look,”
“tell fortune by plants,” “table turn
ing, spirit raising, etc., etc.” His
mission here was a success He went
for the “heathen darkie” and scooped
in bis scads.
Cuflie generally has an eye to busi
ness, and is rather slow to yield any
righkfnntil assured of protection. A
striking exemplification Of this trait
was given on Thursday night at tbe
marriage ceremony of two genuine
ebook. The bride was asked- "to love,
honor, obey, etc., the Inau whom she
held by the right hand." She quickly
repliod, “I will jiss ae long as he
treats me right, and den after dat I’ll
quit im.”
What about that hotel on St Si
mons beach? There is not at this
time n better, chance to invest a hun
dred thousand dol'ars.in onr opinion
than in a large seaside house on onr
beach. It- wqnld prove a healthful
summer resort for at least four
months to all tbe interior, whilst it
would bo equally as popnlar wayside
house for the Northern tourist to
spend a month both going to and re
turning from a winter’s sojourn in
Florida. Parties owning the beaob
would dispose of iton exceedingly ac
commodating terms. •j . *
Mr. Geo. W. Asbell, keeper of St.
Simons light, accompanied by bis
friend* Mr. .‘‘Charlie Baumgartner, of
Brunswick, a few evenings since cap
tured a turtle of some six hundred
pounds, containing one thousand
eggs from tbe size of an English pea
to that of fall-grown maturity, on
Jekyl beach. Turtle stew, turtle
soup and turtle egge have been for
many days important features in the
department ettisine of that station of
marine service.
iAn enterprising yankerfc inTeni
rd a life boat which, if (fcrown wrong
side up, will, at onoe, right itself, or
if filled with water, by means of an
ingenious attachment, will almost in
stantly bail itself out In this con
nection the party on board the Bnby,
who, through fright pot their. life
preBorvers wrong side upward, would
do well to equip themselves each with
a couple of these bouts beforo attempt
ing to cross the sound again during
another rough sea.
Little Abbie, a bright little five year
eld duughter of Mr. VV orreu A. Ful
ler, retains a very vivid remembrance
of the treatment she recived at the
hands of her surgeon, whilst suffering
from « fractured arm some two vears
ago. At a recent dining some one of
the guests suggested that' inasmuch
hs Mrs. F.’s father,, grandfather and
probably great-grandfather were all
physieians, it might be well that Ar
tie, the next older than Abbie adopt
ttie same profession. “No, no, no—
never! My brother Artie is too nice
a boy ever to be made into a doctor,”
promptly and emphatically replied lit
tle Miss Abbie.
It is not our province to say that
modern •■htiietieisin changes nature’s
laws. Mn- it is bound to make a ref
ormation in ojjr notions, and certain-
lyaomettin ■* ujjsef ’many apparently
well established facts. For instance,
from tbe very first introduction of the
African into America it has been said
when you wish to bring him to terms
jnst tap him on the shins and Cull'
surrenders. On last Tuesday at St.
Simons Mills a stick 6x8, thirty feet
long, was thrown from the trestle thir
ty-five feet high down a plane inclined
at about forty-five degrees. Near the
base of the plane a lot of stevedores
were loading the bark Havre, and this
piece struck the right shin of one of
them with its full momentum. The
next day Mr. Stevedore was up at
work, and the stick of timber, shiv
ered, to this day lies on the dock re
fused by the inspector.
One! two!! three !! 1 fire!!! The
community at Gascoigue Mills on last
Thursday at 1 p. h. wore forcibly re
minded of tbe quick’ and lively times
skirmisers sometimes witnessed in the
late unpleasantness during the rapid
picket firing often indulged in along
the lines of tbe^conteqdpg armies.—
ing. htjtfever, was tonly a
plan of Messrs. W. F.
Symons & Co. to advertise the re
opening of their store, which has been
bnilt and refurnished upon tbe Bite
of the one burned down abont two
firihg was the rig
nal of raising a largo United States
Hag, which was saluted by tho whist
ling of tbe mill and steamer Ruby and
flying of colors of all the vessels in
port.' Wiffie is as happy t& a big efl
th'etio sunflower; can sell more goods
and'Vrnit on nujre customers from his
wel elected stock than any man in
the land. With an entirely new out
fit, and prices to suit the times, he
will certainly command his part of
the trade.
