Rapidly as onr city has grown nnd is growing, the crying need has been for more capital. Although over two hundred and fifty dwellings have been erected in the past two years, and a dozen are now being built, there is a demand for a large number in addi tion. Twenty-five houses, worth $1,000 to $1,600, conld be rented in u week, if they were erected. Every bouse erected for tenants in tbe past two years, has been engaged before completion, and many before tbe sills were laid. There are twenty-five fam ilies crowded in boarding houses now who would, at once, rent if tbe build ings were ready. Enquiries from abroad arrive by nearly every mail, for houses to rent.

OUR_CITY. A Short Sketoh of Where and What we are, for the Conve- nience of Hasty Readers. Brunswick is sitnated on Turtle river, a bold and deep arm of Mie sea that projects into tbe land, afibrJing one of tbe finest land-locked harbors on the Atlantic coast. We are con nected by two lines of railroad with all interior points, with New York by steamship, with Nlft York aud Bos ton by packet lines, and with Florida and Savannah by steamboat. M ivnn is distant from us 187 tuileR, Atlanta about 280/Savannah 100, nnd Albany 171. Our population is nboot 4,000, with a fair majority in favor of the whites. Our colored population tire as penceable and law-abiding as any on the globe, and, for the most part honest and industrious. Our annual business, ns statements published elsewhere will show, is very large and constantly increasing.— It is estimated that probably 600 ves sels,will enter our port this year, each of which, will carry away large quan tities of native products to foreign and coastwise ports. Qur wholesale supply t business is comparatively a new, venture, but has, in a very short while, assumed large proportions, and there is still abundant room for much more, one of our greatest needs being the establishment of a wholesale dry goods bouse. Our retail trade is very large, and, in keeping with onr town and everytbipg connected with it, is constantly on tbe increase. It ^ would be impracticable to attempt an enumeration of the businesses or .en terprises of our town, only a few of the more prominent being mentioned in this trade issue. We have in successful. operation, provided for by Statq law, publio schools of a hjgh order (or fioth white and color^ (|ohplars, located ju sepa rate buildings. We have in ujl elev en churches, five of whiob ure owned hy the white and six by the eolored population, among which, are repre sented the Episcopal, Methodist, Bap tist,, Presbyterian and Roman Catho lic denominations. We have an effi cient municipal government, which is rtided and sustained by a police force of six men.. The Masons, Odd Fel lows ,nnd .Knights of-Pythias have each lodges here in successful opera- tiop, besides many other organizations looking to tbe sooial and financial well-being of onr citizens. We have a very neat opera hoase or poblie hall, wbioh is fitted up aad arrunged $ manner befitting cities of much larg er population, apd pretensions (ban Brunswiclf. Wo have in successfnj operation a telephone exchange of about forty,imembers.■ , Tbe climate of Brunswick is as pleasant, all things considered, as can Readily, be. foapd. The wiptera are never Bevere, snow being almost un known und ice a rarity, and uu? sum mers are rendered for tho most part Loite pleasant by constant refreshing ireezesr Almost every afternoon can be felt the delicious seabreezes which quickly , allay the beat on tbp hottest day. j. Our nights are atways cool. Lastly, pur city is beautifully and handsomely laid out in perfect form, coveriug au area of about two square miles, tbe whole being adorned and beautified by some of tbe most beau tiful groves of live oaks and cedars that the sun ever shone upon. Room is plentiful, and building materials 1 aneb labor are reasonable, and tbe new comer may rest assured that he will find a pleasant borne. Matos’s Office, to, Ya., April 19,1879. . Messrs.
