MT. SIMONS ITKMS. BY MA TAB. We have plenty of rain. Tbe crops look splendidly. Col. 8hadmnn had yam potatoes in market on the 15tb. Some of them weighed a pound. The bump of appreciativeness has not been developed that could not en joy such a dinner as we bad last' Sunday “Ho, 'on my helbow ’nrts me, ban’ niv Wl haches,” exclaimed an Eng lish patient last week, “bever since hi avi> b»*eu ban hinmate in this 'uspi- tu..’| ’ 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 mill hands, exclaimed, “dat is proper - some of de buckra men at de mill kin read.' 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.
