Martin went down to Claxton Saturday night. Miss Lucile McDowell was the guest Miss Earle Wood Saturday and Sunday. Mrs. J. M. Wood and Miss Earle were visitors at Ingleside Farm last Wednesday afternoon. We were sorry that Dr. Mathews was so indisposed as to be unable to joiu (he Woodburu party ou last Friday to Tybee as he an ticipated. The Juvenile Society held their rnmthly meeting Sunday after »ou. The program proved quite interesting, the children reuderiug their parts in a praiseworthy man ner. Oil last Saturday night at the holy hour of midnight two for¬ lorn creatures are said to have invaded Mrs. Wood’s dining-hall to such an extent as to discover a freest or of delicious cream, and of course partaking thereof. A nice thing—a nice time. A quiet marriage occured at StiIson Sunday afternoon, The contracting parties being Mr. J. D. Strickland and Miss May me Strickland of W'aycross. R»-v. Quarterman of Marlow officiated. They left on the evening train to spend a few days at Tybee. We extend to them oqrsinoerest congratulations aud wish to them many long years of peace and hap-= piness. The gods seem to have especial¬ ly favored the crowds who weut. down to the seaside on last Fri day, for the day was a perfectly beautiful one, aud in temperature just'delightful, that is it was on the beach at Tybee. Those con¬ stituting Mrs. Sr the L. party Kobertson, were Mr. and »r. Frank Hagan and family, Mrs. H. M.

Several of (he Rufueitcs attend¬ ed the Sunday School Convention at Eureka Wednesday, Miss Laura Scott is making a vLit of several weeks in Sylvania fttid vicinity with relatives. The friends of Mrs. Mitcliel Williams are glad to know that ghe is recovering from a serious attack of illness, Hon. John Miller of Daisy, who was once a highly esteemed resi¬ dent of this neighborhood, is vis¬ iting his sister near here. Miss Minnie Seaso, who lias jjpeu visjtiug relatives in ^iqeri pus, returned home hist week to (fie gieat dejight of her many adr piirprs. A heavy rain and thunderstorm passed over this section Hunday afternoon, No serious damage is reported excepting the oora being blown down iu some places consid¬ erably. The peach crop is almost an en¬ tire failure here, and those who have been anticipating feasting on cold cream and poaches during the last days of July, are sadly disap¬ pointed. That was a good temperance lecture in last issue of Thu Hkk aL i), by B. B. Jones, aud very timely just now, as the large grape orop is ripening, A good many white fingers wero seen stained with blackberry juice the past spring from wiue-inakiug. Now, girls, you may make plenty jellies, jams, preserves, etc., but draw the line at wine- making. TlIV!\KSGIvi:\o. To our God, the giver of all good, whom we desire to publicly acknowledge iu hig goodness and mercy, in preserving life and pro¬ viding for our needs; to the many friends, at home and abroad, known and unknown, who have aided us by their prayers, their presence and their substantial, practical and material sympathy and help, we desire to return our heart-felt thanks. Though wo have sorrowed in our sufferings, they have made us rejoice in the fullness of their helpful friend¬ ship. It is but justice that we, while not thereby disparaging or mini¬ fying the labors of others, should make special mention of the effi cient, constant, laborious and gra¬ tuitous service of onr beloved phy¬ sicians. To Dr. R. L. Sample, who left his bed with fever and hastened to our relief, arriviug just in time to save life, under the blessing of God, aud whose constant service and skill has been freely bestowed through twelve weeks, we return our thanks. May God reward his fidelity. To Dr. M. M. Holland, whose equally skillful, gratuitous and constant service has been bestow¬ ed upou our precious children, restoreing them to heal th, we are profoundly grateful. Heaven re ward him. To Drs. Quattlebaum, McLean, Kennedy and Rogers, all of whom have rendered similar service as opportunity and occasion required, we are grateful and invoke God’s blessing for them. Owing, as we do, our life, twice told, under God’s blessing, to the skill of surgeons aud physicians, we have double reason to thank them aud thank God for them. Of all the callings, next to Christian ministry, we believe >- *»o .me highest, best the holiest. We are happy to state to multitude of friends inquiring ter our present condition, while we have heeu unable to to each one separately, we ciate the sympathy that prompted their inquiries, and wish in manner to answer them ail once. We are slowly but surely recov¬ ering and are now able to take a little daily exercise in a chair. Our wounds are as rapidly as could be We hope to walk but will be bad¬ ly crippled for life, to which are perfectly resigned. After twelve weeks in bed we long to able to mingle with our friends again apd to be about Father’s business,” In conclusion, wo are grateful to the press for the many kind and sympathetic notices of misfortune, and kind but unde¬ served compliments at d good es expressed for us. One of the press, whom we delight number among our best kiudly preached us a little mouette, taking occasion to that we “belonged in the pulpit and not iu the brick mill.” we feel is true, friend Alfred, necessity often places preachers where they ought not to he. If ovir misfortune shall serve to press upon our people the law given in 1 Cor. ix-l-f, we are ing to go on orutohes the remain¬ der of life, We have chosen the less person¬ al “we” bofore the “I” because this article is so iuteusely aud entirely personal that we feared tho compositor would seem of “sorts,” Fraternally and gratefully, J.

The Great Daniel l’oaed the Shipper of a Bouton Schooner as on Expert WllijMi anil One of the Ahleat Sea Captain* Oat of That Port. 01<1 Boston schoolboys of a couple of generations ago realize that uo greater change has taken place iu Boston than on the wharfs, which iu 1840 were all open, with uo shells built oti them as at the present time. Vessels In the East India trade were docked at India wharf. IV. F. Weld & Co. had their ships docked at Central wharf, Lom¬ bard's and llemenway & Co.'s ships were at Commercial wharf. Long wharf was lined with vessels In the coasting trade. They had large canvas signs attached to the yards stating the port hailed from and tho port they wanted freight for. At that time tliero were no steam¬ ships, and all transportation was done by sailing craft For Instance, a sign would rend, "The schooner Eagle, Cap¬ tain Smith, will sail on Saturday, for Bath, Gardiner and HalloweM.” The wharfs were a favorite resort with the boys Wednesday and Saturday afternoons. At that time school kept Wednesday and Saturday mornings, and we had the afternoons for vaca¬ tion. In tho morning, after school, we would decide where we would spend the afternoon, and it was generally on the wharfs. Five out of ten boys went to sea after leaving school. At the head of Long wharf, where the State street block now stands, was an old hulk of a vessel with a house built on its deck. It was fastened to the dock, and this was used by the Ilingliain Bucket company for a store¬ house. On the side of the house was a sign, “Hingbnm Station racket.” It was a standing Joke with us to ask the man who had charge of It if he was the captain and when he was going to sail, as we wanted to ship before the mast. It was a favorite amusement with the boys to climb up the rigging of ships and “stump” one another as to who would climb the highest. There was one of these boys who could beat us all In climbing. Wo nicknamed him “Monkey Jack.” On one of the ships the downlmul of the signal hal¬ yards broke short up to the flag at the truck. The captain, pointing to tlic flag, said, “I will glvo nny boy that will bring that flag on deck a nine pence.” We nil started up the shrouds, but “Monkey Jack” was up to tho roy¬ als before we got to the yardarm. When he left school, he went to sea and became master of one of tho lar¬ gest clipper ships that sailed out of Boston. Captain Malian of Long wharf had a fine schooner yacht In which he took parties down tho harbor. He often In¬ vited the boys to take a sail with him. I remember once he told us a story about Daniel Webster, ns follows: “About 5 o’clock In tlie morning I was ou deck putting the boat In shipshape order and swabbing up the deck. I was golug to take a party down sailing Mrc^fns LVoia fvllow" sVarnfidjfolt the wharf with an old cloak and slouch¬ ed hat on under a large cotton um¬ brella. He hailed me, asked If I was the captain and said he would llko to come aboard. I supposed he was some old farmer from the country who bad never seen salt water before, so I said: ‘gertaiuly. Come right aboard.’ Ho looked over the boat a spell and after awhile came up to where I was and said, ‘Captain, If you were sailing a ship down the harbor and another ship was coming up and tho wind was northeast, which side would you sail of the ship that you wero going to meet?’ I said, ‘I would put the helm bard to port and go to the windward.’ He seemed to understand and asked me a great many questions. I thought he was taking up a good deal of my time and answered him rather short He thanked me for the Information I had given him and bade mo goodby. “I had forgotten all about the old country man, when ono day, about A fortnight afterward, a constable came aboard and asked to seo Captain Ma¬ han, stating that I must Appear la court the next day at 10 o’clock as a witness. I could not think for the life of ine of any case In court that I knew anything about. You can judge my surprise when 1 saw Daniel Webster and recognized him as my old friend that asked so many questions. He was laying down the law to the court In groat shape, using all the nautical terms in Bowditch’s Navigator, and to hear him talk, hoys, you’d thought he’d been to sea all his life. “It appeared that there had been a collision In the harbor, and the owners wero settling which ship was to blame In court. Webster was counsel for one of tlio merchants. He Introduced me to the court as Captain Mahan, one of the ablest sea captains that sailed out of Boston. Well, boys, you better be¬ lieve that I turned red as a lobster, aa I was only a skipper of a schooner. I answered all the questions Mr. Web¬ ster asked me in regard to sailing a ship under certain circumstances.” One of the boys said, "Well, captain, who beat?” “Why, Daniel Webster, of course!”— Boston Transcript. Dhifllng the Blaine. A woman employed at a Yorkshire factory took her 5-year-old boy to the hospital and asked the surgeon to look at Ills hand. By some freak of nature Ills finger and thumb luid Interlocked, causing him great pain at times. “Why didn't you come here earlier, my good woman?” asked the surgeon In a tone of sharp reprimand. "The little chap has evidently been suffering from this extraordinary defect since the day of ills birth. If you had brought him soon nfter he was bom, I might have done something for him, but I very much fear I cannot now."
