The yellow fever in Brownsville and
Pensacola does not seem to abate.
Great suffering prevail and help has
been called for.
Up to last advices there had been
over 1,500 cases of yellow fever and
S8 deaths at Brownsville since the ep

The six Eastman rioters who have
been sentenced to be bung, will pay

Bainbridge is needing more houses.
There is not a vacant store in the
town; this too, in the face of the fact
that the S. F. A W. Railway is giving
her the ‘‘go by” in building her ex
tension from a point eight miles above
the town.
Work on the extension of the S. F.
k W. Railway from Climax—eight
miles from Bainbridge—to the Chat
tahoochee is being vigorously pushed.
One thousand hands are at work up
on it. A line is also being pnshed
from Live Oak to Rowland’s bluff.—
Our sister city is fortunate in having
such a road working for her prosper

The largest invidnal sheep owner in
Texas is a woman, known all over the
State as the “Widow Callahan.’’
Her sheep, more than 50,000 in num
ber, wonder over the ranges of Uvalde
and Bandera counties, in the south
western part of the State. Th$ir
grade i» a cross between the hardv
Mexican sheep and the Vermont meri-
no. They ore divided into flocks of
2.000 head each, with a “bessero” and
i wo “pastoras” in charge of each
flock. At the spring and fall shear
ings, long trains of wagons transport
the “Widow's” wool to the market at
San Antonio.
A report oomes from Oregon of a
novel but successful plan of removing
a sand bar. The government dredge,
at tbe month of the Columbia river
had been abandoned becauso the ap
propriation was exhausted. Tbe
saud forming tbe bar is clean and
light; the current of the rivor runs
two miles an hour at ebb and three at
flood tide. A steamer was moored on
tho bar, bow np stream, tbe stern at
tbe lower edge of the bar and loaded
so that the keel touched the bottom.
In eighteen hours actual work with
her propeller a channel 1,000 feet long
and 100 feet wide was deepened from
a maximum of eighteen feet to from
twenty-two to twenty-four feet. The
current carried the snnd away as the
propeller loosened it.

we would like to
it of all we wish to say
that we feel proud of • tbe marked
respect shown the Glynn delegates.
Mr. O’Conner being honored with a
conspicious position that of secretary,
and Mr. Dart, our coming Represena-
tive, being placed on some of tbe
most prominent committees, besides
ihe Morning News did ns the honor
of bringing prominently to the front
our delegates—for wbioh courtesy we
here tip our journalistic hat. These
acts bntendear us the more to our
sister city and her honored guest on
the occasion of tbe meeting of the
Congressional Convention within her
borders. One of the lessons taugh
us by this convention and in fact by
previous conventions as well, and
one which the District could do well
to learn, is that the Wiregrass conn
ties are solid and wield a power. If
we are not misinformed, tbe counties
on this side Of the Altamaba, carry
the balance of tbe power and tbe
candidate who is so fortunate as to be
backed by these counties carries tbe
day. A marked feature of this con
vention is tbe perfect harmony that
prevailed through tbe deliberation
whilst the friends of eooh respective
candidate exerted their utmost power
to win tbe day, wheu the decision was
finally reached, all wheeled into line
and with a rousing cheer nominated
by acclamation the Hon. John C.
Nicholls of BlucKshear, and now
comes the time for action. Let ns
roll up for qur candidate eucb a ma
jority as bas never been known
Let the Wiregrass “cross the Alta-
maha with 3500 majority” as Mr. Dart
predicted.

There is no better sobool than that
of experience, in which we learn use
fa) and lasting lessons. Mataraorus,
Brownsville and Pensacola have been
taught a useful lesson, at a fearful
cost, however. Their citizens have
been ^prostrated by thousands, to say
nothing of that long list that now peo
ple their cemeteries, bnving been
swept by that terrible disease, yellow
fever.
All this sickness and sorrow—for
what? Carelessness and greed of
guin may be written as tbe answer to
the above query. Carelessness in that
proper precautions were not taken, ei
ther in sanitary measures or quaran
tine regulations, and greed ofguiD in
that they preferred running tbe risk
of bringing disease aud death into
their borders to the loss of a little
trade witb Cuban ports during the
summer months. Such short-sight
edness brings its pangs, sooner or la
ter. Better far never to see a Spanish
vessel than to bring the vile disease
into our ports.
The truth is, our southern cities
(nnd we mean Brunswick us well os
the rest) can’t afford to run such fear
ful risks. See, to-day, bow readily
the outside world are prepared to ac
cept the reports of yellow fever being
in our Atlantic ports. It takes years
to get over tbe effects of an epidemic
in any place. In short, confidence is
never fnlly restored. Then let us of

A few months since several pf the
leading Sunday-school workers in
Tennessee issued a call inviting Sun
day school workers throughout the
South to meet at Tallaboma, Tennes
see, on the 17th of August to consid
er the matter of establishing a Sun
day-school Assembly in the, South.
Pursuant to that call quite a number
of Sunday-school workers met at
Tullahoma, Tennessee, on the 17th.
W. H. Morrow, of Nashville, Tennes
see, was elected temporary President,

“Resolved, That this Convention

places as they, in their judgment may
deem proper, and after hearing all
propositions, shall make their finul de

involve themselves or others in debt.

The Flying Eiryptians.
At 4,30 on the morning of the 12th
inst., the British made an attack on
Arabi Bey and rented him and when
last heard from his shuttered forces
were fleeing in the direction of the
Great Sahara Desert. The British
loss is estimated at two hundred, the
Egyptian’s at two thousand men, be
sides forty guns and a large number
of prisoners. Arabi was in a fortified
position with twenty thousand regu
lars. Cardinal Wolseley had only
thirteen thousand in all, but making
the attack early in tbe morning nnd
going right at them witb fixed bayo

before them and fled.

late stage of it. The originators are'
not convicted. It is morally certain
that the jury was “fi^ed.” ■ Foreman
Dickson is generally credited . with
having received the didst money for
his course."
. In this connection it would be ap
propriate to make the following ex
tract from a telegram to tbe Morning
New, showing some of the expense
of this big farce. It says :
“It was ascertained at the Treasury
Department to day that the payments
already made ou account of expenses
in tbe prosecution of tbe star route
cases ore as follows: m <j_
For services and expenses, B. H.
Brewster (before his appointment as
Attorney General), $5,000 ;> W. A,
Cook, services and expenses, $6,702
George Bliss, services and expenses,
$19,251 60 V W. W. Kerr, services
and expenses, $6,527 ; R. T. Merrick,
services and expenses, $5,000 ; A. W.
Gibson, services and expenses, $5,000
total, $47,480 60.
It will be seen that tbe above ex
ponses include only lawyers fees and
expenses, and only so much of that
class of accounts as has been passed
by tbe accounting officer of the
Treasury.
None of the other accounts of ex
penses incurred in this trial, such as
witness fees, compensation of special
agents, court expenses, etc., have yet
been presented nt the Treasury. It
is estimated that these expenses, to
gether with an additional amount to
be paid as counsel fees, will swell the
total expenses of tbe trial of the star
route coses to about $200,000.
