^dvtrfiner mid T. fl. STACY. BRUNSWICK. satubdat umiNiiw. uknbbA Mrs. Garfield bas purchased a $50,- 000 residence. •Jay Gould has been elected presi dent of the Texas Pacific Rond. The road bed of the E. T. V. & G. roilrond has been rock balasted for a distance of several miles below Dal ton. The yellow fever in Brownsville and Pensacola does not seem to abate. Great suffering prevail and help has been called for. Up to last advices there had been over 1,500 cases of yellow fever and S8 deaths at Brownsville since the ep ideinic commenced there. The six Eastman rioters who have been sentenced to be bung, will pay the death penalty on the 30tb of Oc tober. The execution will be private Bainbridge is needing more houses. There is not a vacant store in the town; this too, in the face of the fact that the S. F. A W. Railway is giving her the ‘‘go by” in building her ex tension from a point eight miles above the town. Work on the extension of the S. F. k W. Railway from Climax—eight miles from Bainbridge—to the Chat tahoochee is being vigorously pushed. One thousand hands are at work up on it. A line is also being pnshed from Live Oak to Rowland’s bluff.— Our sister city is fortunate in having such a road working for her prosper ity- Say boys, don’t some one of you want a rich widow to take care of? Just read this and proceed forthwith to pack your gripsack :■ The largest invidnal sheep owner in Texas is a woman, known all over the State as the “Widow Callahan.’’ Her sheep, more than 50,000 in num ber, wonder over the ranges of Uvalde and Bandera counties, in the south western part of the State. Th$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. CONGRESSIONAL CONVENTION. Southern Sunday-School —— bljr. Tho Congressional Convention of to* mabe the following extracts re so near fgo m 8n article in the Christian In- >ress thaf >f the CITY MARSHAL’S SALES speak of. tip There are a few 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. THE LKHSofc'^TAUGKT.

Tbe following is certainly a new thing for tbe Centra), she bas su Idenly waked up from her Rip Van Wiukle sleep and now lie-1 gins to stretch In rm-lf. We await j developments: l ' nn 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.

Here are the e^kcto.:. ! , 1;! t, 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, and VV. G. Wbidby, of Atlanta, temporary Secretary. The Star Route Offender*. The great Star R mte Farce that baa been enacted weeks past hi 'cMxr, 1882. Tbe committee on nominations re ported the following for permanent officers : President, R. B. Reppard, Savan nah, G». Vice-Presidents,. W. H. Morrow, Nashville, Tennessee; Rev. Z. A. Parker, Gadsden, Alabama. Secretary, W. G. Wbidby, Atlanta. Assistant Secretary, Rev. T. S. Ruby, Lebanon, Tennessee. ' The report was unanimously adopted. On being escorted to the ebair, President made a stirring and en thusiastic address. * * * * * * Tbe following resolution was adopt ed : “Resolved, That this Convention place tbe whole matter of selecting a location for the Southern Snnday- school assembly in the bands of the committee heretofore appointed, and that said committee shall have fall power to select a location, get out ar ticles of incorporation, arrange a pro gramme for tbe first annual meeting of tbe assembly, fix tbe time of hold ing said first annual meeting and do all things necessary to make it a suc cess. This committee shall, about tbe IStb of September 1882, visit such places as they, in their judgment may deem proper, and after hearing all propositions, shall make their finul de cision, and on no uccouut sball they involve themselves or others in debt. On motion, President Reppard was made ex-ofiicio a member of the com mittee. 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 nets the Egyptians could not stand before them and fled. rogues. Read this dispatch dated Washington, September 11: “There is bat one opinion here in regard to the result of the Star Route trrials, and that opinion is that the jurjr was' “fixed;" 1 That two of the smaller offenders should be convicted, and the big thieves induced ~a~hang "ury, is certainly, to say tbp/ least, a ittle suggestive. The convicted men Ml PI}* ^8h>?*?bSfbwhim^- lees, necessary for them if they wish ed to escape. These two men, ‘dame into the stealing at a comparatively 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.
