Tiie meeting called was a ipocial one, to hear from Jtr, Bowditch, Strrerage Engineer, toothing the system pro* posed for oureity,and also to vote upon the passage of Vrhat is known as thq bond ordinance, said bonds beingYor 1200,000, to run for thirty years, and the cash derived (bom sale of,-sumo to tfe applied to sewerage, school buildings and city hall. The engineer failed to materalize, so'con sequently, no meeting was held, CounoiU preferring to “go slow” in this important step. If they .pass the ordinance, then the citizens are to y)te upon the question on the 27th—a three-third vote of all legal voters being necessary to carry the measure. Mr. Bowditch is expected to day, and the meeting of Council will tako place to-night. Mr. Bowditch is an expert and not a contractor, so we can receive his statements as Note* from the Fair. Ths crowd was hardly as dense Ihst evening at L’arioto as the night before, bat they individually seemed equally as happy; and the (kir maid ens and little girls were Just as im portunate in their requests that we “take a chance" at this, that or tho other articles offered. free from any coloring arising from a desire to secure a contract. - The pantomimes formed an impor tant feature again last evening— “Becruit" bringing down the house at every turn. His crowning pro- ceedure, however, was during the “night attack." He had come into camp late and true to “substitute” nature hpd captured a blanket from his sleeping comrades and quietly rolled himself 'in it as tightly as a wounded limb with a bandage around it When tho alarm came therefore, his plight was a sad one, for he had to roll all over the camp to get out ef the blanket, during which process he was several times rqn over by his comrades. At this scene the ap filanse shook the roof. These bonds as stated abote are for a three fold purpose—sowerage, school buildings and city hall. There is considerable diversity of opinion on this* question, Some are anxious, to secure sewerage only, some want school buildings only, some want both-, and some want none —in other words are not willing to bond tho city at all-seeing no ne cessity for such a move. Some hol'd that what is contemplated will in crease our death rate instead of di minishing it. .It is now the lowest lave 1,000 inhabitants per year. They claita that whilst sewerage in itself is good, that typhoid fever and* dyhtheria will come with it, not because of sewerage but of bad plumbing, that can'i be controlled; some claim that the dry earth closet is the only safe remedy, etc. Thus we find a whole score of objections pro and con besides the original question broached of the legality of issuing said bonds. The best legal 'talent and tho best medical talent of this city are divided on these ques tions, as well as our citizens gen erally. We propose in this emer gency that Council set a time and secure L’arioso hall and invite the opposing factious to meet them and discuss the questions involved—not the me.*.—and give tho citizens all the light on these questions. Light is what is wanted now by a great many. 1st. Wo want to know if the sys tem of getting rid of the filth, now proposed, is the best method. 2d. If it is, then is the issuance of bonds the cheapest way to get it. 3d. Is it true that our health will be endangered by sewerage? 4th.. If the holders of our outstand ing bonds, whidh must be retired be fore we issue others, see fit to hold them, how can you get them to deliver them up without paying- two prices for them? They are worth 115 now. Who will insure that they won’t cost 200 before we get them? These and similar questions are put to us daily for solution. .Wo ask that they be discussed coolly and dis passionately by thos&who have stud ied up the different sides, so that we all can act intelligently. * That Supper! Without doubt the suppers fiin)i .'ic(l by the good ma trons are the !>ost ever given' at any entertainment offered in this city that the writer attcuded. You have a regular bill of fare, and call for just what you want. The dish is brought you and you can help your self tSe good old-fashioned way.. Parties who can't attend can get a supper by sending someone to the hall for it. Just send your servant and some dishes, and you can got a royal supper sent you for only fifty cents. ‘ We made mention in yesterday’s issue that the burglars who entered Wright's store had been caught at Waycross. Wc should have said that they were the ones who broke into Haencl’s gun shop. Mr. Tom Treadwell went up to Waycross af ter them and succeeded in capturing both and getting one of tho rifles and several of the pistols. A good raw- hide strapping would do these chaps more good than a year in the peni tentiary. Their names are Ranson Welch' and Arthur Odliam, or Cobb. Wood! Wood! Wood! Wood is getting to be u big con sideration with us in Brunswick, and the man who offers it cheaper than his neighbor at once gets the car of his audience. Tho Brunswick Wood Delivery company, under the man agement of Mr. Cbas. Freund, comes out to-day in a lively ad. in the space selected by him sometime since, and tells all just what he is going to charge for wood. Read his prices, and send in your orders. His machines not only cut but split the wood. Y. M. U. A. The lecture by Col. Goodyear for to-morrow night, has been postponed on account of other entertainments. Mr. W. R. Bozard, of Atlanta, witf conduct the meeting in tho rooms Sunday morning, and address the meeting Sunday night at the Metho dist churah. * 'precious ibw when shield » ing his flie Birmingham JTtonble.

The ono case grew into several, but the publicity given by the Constitution aroused the authorities and the rc suit was that never in the history of small-pox lias the disease been so thoroughly stamped out. Fcrnandina affords another exam plo of municipal sensiveness. The authorities there concealed tho fact that yellow fever existed 'in the town. This concealment may have been profitable at first, but the town is now nearly depopulated. MOORE & McCRARY’S , C1ALTIES. SFE- Prices Good for One Week Only.
