gineer core in regards to the water

1st. Lieut. Carter advises the re
moval of the B. & W. wharf, if not
all of it, part of it, say 50 feet. If

pewl.wharf should, be built from the
southern corner of their old wharf to
the north corner of Drury’s wharf.
* 2d. The building of the B. AW.
wharf has been one of the causes of
the shoalingjof our harbor. In the
last three years it has shoaled ac
cording to his statistics more >than
it bas in twice the length of time
previous. ' • f:
3d. He could not recommend a
wharf line at present. Work was go
ing on here now, and .when finished
and placed before a board of engin
eers, who would establish a bulk
head or wharf lino, which he hoped
the government would takecharge of
in the fUtum 1
4th. Xhkt parties should not be
allowed Ihbuild put their ^harves to
deep water, but shouldc build

petition was received and the amount
ordered paid.
The caption of two bills to be sub
mitted to the legislature, were read,
adopted and ordered published, and
are as follows:
“An- act to set apart certain por
tions of "Queen's Squsrp” in the city
of Brunswick,- Ton. the location, and
atb sites for the erection of certain
public buildings."
“An Act to appropriate the monies
received from the special taxes upon
liquor dealers in the county of
Glynn to the support and mainte
nance of the public schools of said
county.” r r
Mr. W. A. Jeter appeared before
Council and stated that if the city
would" donate a site that cotton mills
would be erected.
On, motion, a committee consisting
of Aldermen Madden, Bostwick and
Fulton, and Messrs. J. £. DuBignon
and S. C. Littlefield, was appointed
to confer with Mr. Jeter and Cap
tain Henley and see see what could
he done in the matter with instruc
tioiin tu ixyifhack to Council.
By Alderman Penniman—
Resolerd. Realizing the extreme
necessity of at once taking some
measure toward the adoption of some
feasible plan by which a system of
sewerage may be obtained at an early
date; and whereas there exists,
and has existed a disputed question
as to the constitutionallity of J'
issue of bonds by the ciiff of ®ru:
wick, owing tojconstituttoual enaction,
inthe year-1877 ; and vi
disputed point can on
™ined by carrying th;
fibre the Supreme Co;
al adjudication; and
wayto,,arrivea r
had in Savannah at the S. F. &
whatves. '
6th. If wharf owners want vessels
to lay head on they should build
slips so that the vessels there should
not extend bej’ond the wharf line.
7th, That Charleston, Savannah
and * Brunswick were commercial
iowns and dependent on the com
merce for existence. If the}- allow
their deep water to bo impaired their
prosperity will be decreased in the
same proportion, and they should
look after their harbors better in the
future. All of which is respectfully
submitted by your committee. ,
J.M. Madden,
J. W. Drury,

The Now York World has flung at
the public this question, “What
would you do if you had a million
dollars?” It invites, everybody who
hasn’t a million to answer it. Prob
ably the World will regret its action.
There are any number of people in this
country who have been figuring for
some time on an answer to the ques
tion, and if they should send the
World the result of their air-castle
building, Mr. Pulitzer would have to
hire several men at big salaries to
attend to letters.
that yellow fever .can be isolated and
that the germ tlfeory is the correct
one.
if it becomes accepted that the pe
riod of incubation does not exceed
five days, the time of detention at
quarantine stations in futureVepi-
demies will be greatly reduced, and
if yellow fever can be isolated the
policy in future will be to put; an in
fected place in quarantine, as it were,
instead of quarantining against 'it.
If all communication with an infect
ed place is cut off, and its citizens
are permitted to pass out through a
quarantine camp, where detention
will be sufficient to make it certain
that they are free from infection, all
tho rest of the country will move
along as usual without .pprehensjon
of danger. The isolati in plan will
be far less expensive til >n the shot
gun qurantine system, l ut it can on
ly be carried out by the government.
Isolation must be perfecotherwise,
there would be a lack >f confidence
in it, and other localiti s'would re
sort to measures to p oteot them
selves. -r •.
