The ‘editors and printers will endeavor to observe the day along with the rest'of the world. On Wednesday, we will take op the harden thus temporarily laid down, and goon as ever inoor mission. Never boy Holiday goods until af ter comparing Bostwick's prices, as you will lose from 25 to 50 per cent by so doing. The steamer Egmont came in at moon to-day well laden with St Si- moners hunting Christmas. Go to Henry T. Dunn’s and look at thS display of fireworks at prices cheaper than ever. Mr. and Mrs. Hunter, of Savan nah, are in the dry on a visit to their children, Mr. and Mrs. R. R. Hop kins. Wc wish them a merry Christ mas in our midst.; For all kinds of Fancy Paperteries, from ten cents each np, go to Bost wick Bros. They buy direct of man: ufactures, and can sell at wholesale prices.

A Word of Praise. Mkssbs. Editors: I have been reading your paper for ten or twelve years, and have rejoiced in your prosperity. You have battled for Branswick as no other man. I ven ture the assertion that.no 'influence has been set in motion that has done more real good for the growth of your town than the Advertiser Appeal. Your people should contribute liber ally to your prosperity, and when 3’ou dio should rear to your memory a marble shaft that would forever perpetuate your memory. Not a Brunswickiak, Words of praise are sweet to us all—to the editor ns well as the rest. Tho above, from one entirely unin terested, is duly appreciated. We are glad to say that our people have always stood by us. The “shaft” business don’t worry, us; there is no marble shaft more enduring than a a knowledge that one has endeavored to do hiB duty. The Editors. tg§s§s - is* I*-'. A Heavy Blow. Rev. H. E. Lucas, of the Episcopal church gave his people some home truths yesterday about finding time and money to serve the world, but not the church. He spoke also very decidedly on the subject of raffling and similar amusements, quoting the bench of Bishops of his church thereby showing that he was sup ported in his views by the highest authority of his church. Those who heard his sermon say that whilst he was very guarded injiis language,there was no chance to mis take bis meaning. The .learned gen - ticman laid down this broad princi ple, that anything in itself harmless, CHK18TMAB TO-XORROW. To morrow morning will usher la upon us our annual Christmas Jubl lee, which will be celebrated by all 1q any manner they may select, sad strange how msay notions prevail on this lias. All are 'agreed upon two point*, however. 1st That it Is adby of rejoicing, should b« duly celebrated ,cb. . * ^ 2nd. Thit a very proper *thlng to do in to giro and receive presents. But alas, so few ever stop to think that their mode of rejoicing is not in keeping with wbst they oelebrate— the birth of a Savipnr. Fireworks, hilarity, fan, frolic, estingsnd drink ing seem to be the^idea with the masses, yea even more, many take it as the time for an annual drdnk and debauoh—to our mind the most reckless perversion of the day—to say nothing of the harm they might do to themsolres and others in their drnnken revelry. We can bpt commend those churches that annually celebrate the day in keeping with their belief of its significance. Well, we are all agreed on the one line of making those around us as happy as we call in bestowing pres ents. Let those presents be such as will gladden the hearts of those who receive them, and if thine heart is inclined toward sweet charity how full the world around you is of wor thy objects—no more fitting day to do good in that way. A sack of flour, h side of bacon, a bolt of home- spun, a load of coal to Borne cheer less home of suffering will make glad der the hearts of its inmates than all the dolls, jumpping jacks, fire crackers, etc., that you could send to such a home. A Good Suggestion. Editors AdvortUoivAppenl. It has been suggested to me by a winter traveler en route to Bermuda, that if a good passenger schooner or other vessel, should make occa sional trips between Brunswick and Bermuda in the latter part of the winter or at such other times as might be found profitable to the own ers of the vessel, a new route of trav el might be opened. The advantage of such a route would bo the avoidance of the ab rupt transition from very warm, to to the cold, piercing weather of open ing spring. This change is very fre quently followed by 'severe or even dangerous colds which might be avoided by a “tapering off” of the journey and a mere gradual approach to the north. With this would come tho addi tional advantages of change of scene, and an increased number of visitors to Brunswick. . Tho northern exodus to Bruns wick is constantly increasing and a considerable portion of tho return flow might be diverted to your city, instead of tha terminus which now ends the voyage. Yours, Medic as. Excursion to Brunswick. Tho following we clip from the Americus Recorder: “There will be an excursion from Americus to Bruns wick, on or abdlt the fourth or fifth of January, of a number of gentle men of this place to Witness the work of Hitt <fe Co.’s, new compress, tho “Pelican.” We understand •that transportation has been tendered them by the diffeteht railroads. It will be quito a nice trip, and those who go will be more tjjnn repaid by seeing the coming compress of t^o world. There is no question of its success, that has been satisfactorily demonstrated in its work already.” that gets in between a member and Mic* church, was harmful, and should ' from.

Tho regnlar election of officers of Seaport Lodge of this place will bo held to-morrow night in their hall at 7 o’clock. All Odd Fellows in good standing in the city are in vited, as business of great importance to this Lodge will be brougot before it for consideration. The best place to buy toys and fire worke is Glogauer’s. Tie Doctor's Experience. Dr. Duawody, health officer, had quite an experience tut Saturday whilst visiting a vessel la St draw’s Sound, He had engaged the servioes of Mason 4 McCauley’s steam launch, and hla experience go ing down waa rather Mixed with wind and water, for the air was ehilly and bleak, and the waves wash ed over the stern of the steamer. On his way back, however, the worst part of his experience began. Fear ing to return the same route he went, he turned the prow, of the little Steamer up for the Jointer’s On the way up they undertook to go through a awash channel, oontrary to the doc tor’s ideas. In the midst of the route they straddled a sand-bar on the ebb tide, and there they stuck until that tide could run out and come back again. ' Meanwhile there they sat monarch of all they surveyed, not even a fiddler nor a crab came to dis pute their ownership of the territory they ocoupied, and none came to of fer either food or drink. There was a perfect , waste of waters all around and the luscious bivalves lay not far distant ip great profusion, but tho former was as salty as the briny ocean, and the latter just out of reach. So. there the doctor and his crew sat and shivered, grew hun gry and thirsty in turn, but all of no avail ; meanwhile ^another horror camo over them. The supply of coal had given out, and no drift wood in reach. But necessity knows no law; so when the tide was all right once more, the seats of the boats were converted Into fuei. This, with the little coal dust left brought them to McCullough’s dock about midnight, where the doctor alighted and made his way to his room, preferring to use his own powers of locomotion to that of a steamer without fuel. He reached hfa room about 12 o’clock,and went supperless and dinnerlcss to bed, having been out since 8 o’clock that morning on his little pleasaure (?) trip; The doctor, when he starts on another expedition of this sort, will take along an extra bunker of coal, a jug of pure artesian water, an<f a basket of substantiate to guard against accidents.

Wool- folk noon detected the theft and re ported It to Jailer Birdsong. 'Smith tried to throw the money ont of the jail, bat Wes detected in the act.

It is not announced, how ever, where the President will go, if he doesn’t gp to. Orange. If he is open to offers, suppose be come to Georgia. This is a good state, and it is strongly in favor of Mr. Cleve land’s tariff reform policy. Captain Rl Hobbs, of Albany, has determined to enter upon an experi ment which may result beneficially to that section and the entire South. He says ho can’t see why jute won’t grow in the rich lands of West Dougherty, and he has ordered one pound of-the jute seed with, which he proposes' to make a test of the adaptabllltj$of the soli and climate to its growth. He will plant it in rich alluvial soil on his West Dough erty plantation, and devote every necessary attention to its cultiva tion. “I’m sorry I didn't come here first,” is tho complaint of unfortu nate purchasers who have failed to examine goods and compare prices at Bostwick Bros, and have lost half thereby. ; v It was stated the other day that a few women voted the entire munici pal ticket in Boston. Now, it is said that the number so voting runs into hundreds. The women are priv ileged to vote for sphool officers, but not for Mayor and Alderman. In many instances the wicked “heelers” induced them to vote the fell ticket, and in others they needed no per suasion. It is thought that, after the illegal ballots are thrown out, the result of the election will remain unchanged. Is woman a success as •voter? *' For all kihds of toys, books, fancy plush goods, autograph and photo graph albums, .pocket books, satch els, cigar cases and Christmas cards, go to Bostwick Bros.
