OCTOBER 22, 1888, That Torpcdo(f) There has lain for years, ia its present bed in the mad near the B. & W. dock, an old iron hull of some kind that long ago oeased to interest the average Brunswiekian, but in these latter days so many strangers pass that spof, and want to know what that carious shaped iron thing can possibly be, some one has nought to get even with the inquisi tive passer-by, and has therefore la beled it— ' ' “This Torpedo • USED AT Port Royal ih 1865.". And now even the old citizetas, who have seen that old hull lie- there for twenty odd years,, are wondering what it can lie, and, if a torpedo, how -the“plagusy thing was ever fired.” For the benefit of the seeker after •truth we will fftate that Capti James ■Clubb informs us that this object which has so suddenly come into no tice is an old bell b^py that used to be anchored on Dpboy bar in 1858, ’59 and ’60. In *61 it broke from its moorings during a fearful northeast gale, : and was gashed up on St. Si mons beach, and later on whs towed up to. Brunswick and left where it how lies. • The Captain informs us that it has guided him to sea with at least 150 vessels that he has towed •out from the port of Darien and Do- . boy. The bell was hung in the mid| die.of the boat or buoy, and .every movement of the water caused it to ring, tfrus warning off the mariner ftor^ ^dangerous shoal, even at night when too dark to see the buoy.

Heretofore we have fought the bond idea, believing the work could be done by piece—so mhch each year—say $20,000 worth, is In conversation with members of the finance committee, we glean as their idea, that to raise that amount over and above other actual needs would 1% impossible, so then that leave us but the one resort, namely, bonds. The very thought of these, however, sends cold chills through our veinB, and makes ub shudder. We haveabout reached the conclu sion that as bitter as is the pill we must prepare to swallow it, unless the wtodom of Council will suggest a better way. ; In making this- concesion, howev er, we are by no means in favor of a blind issuing of bonds. We would throw ground it certain restrictions First, that it should be submitted to the people^ and secbndly that said bonds should be put into the hands of a special committee, composed, say of three citizens and two members of OunoUr-4 regular bond commission. With these restrictions we would be willing to issue bonds, and otaly so much each year as are absolutely necessary, say $40,000 the flrst.year. That amonnt could be placed right herein our midst, for they" would be n goocbinvestmsntfor capital.

It presence on an envelope is suggestive of a liver reg : ulator and corset advertisement Bus iness men don't wear the latter and haven’t time to think whether their organs are in working- or not. A mass of mail matter awaits them in the morning. A glance is sufficient. Two cent letters arc looked into; one cent ones are swept aside. They may contain important information, bat if the party desiring to convey it doesn’t value it at two cents the mer chant assuredly cannot afford to waste his time picking it out from the pile of chaff that comes in this form. The vendors of patent nostrums, etc., are catching on to this fact and quite a number deem the extra ex penditure necessitated by the use of 2c. stamps a wise measure. They are beginning too, to use plain envelopes Hitherto a glance at" the corner was almost sufficient to denote the con tents. Now it is necessary to rip tho envelope open, and, having gone that far, the senders depend upon fortune and the gullibility of mankind for the rest.—Ex. Levi P. Morton is said to have %ontributed $69,000 to the republi can campaign. While Mr. Morton is liberal with his money he wants to have a voice in its expenditure. He insists that a large port of what he has given shall be sent to North Carolina to help purchase the votes of that state.
