I SUNDAY S TIMES. The Times next vSunuay will contain aj full account of Saturday's municipal] election, together with complete returns] showing the result. A large number of extra copies will be issued. Advertisers] will find it to their advantage to reach the public through Sunday’s Timks. j MIDWINTER NUMBER. Bruuswivk must be made known: abroad. Accurate information must be' published to the world of its marvelous; growth in population, wealth and traded and the advantages it oilers to the in-j vestor and home-seeker. The Times has undertaken to do this necessary aoik,; and will about January 1 issue a Trade! Edition, which it guarantees will be thej handsomest work oi’ a similar character' ever issued by a Southern city. Ad-- vertisiug Brunswick, not money-making,! is the prime object sought, and iu ibis; laudable .work tor tile good of the whole" r city it expects liberal encouragement.t Xu business men the issue will alibi'd a: line opportunity for judicious adverb's-) uig, buth on account of the large number; of copies to be issued and because the; beauty of the Work will gu rautee its preservation. The preparation of the matter for the issue and the making; of contracts iu reference to it have been] assigned Uy.Mr. R. 11. Brumby, of The Times staff, and he will make a thorough, canvass of the city. The extent to! which The Times can hope to succeed in' the work it has undertaken will of course' be measured by the aid it may receive] from the public, and therefore to those] who have the welfare of the city and its; continued growth at heart The Times; appeals for liberal support. Life is worth living in a climate like Brunswick’s. Brunswick’s military companies make a splendid appearance. They are as gallant as" las ever shouldered a gun or drew a sabre. To-lat Henry Grady will speak in Boston. Henry can bold the Bostonians away from their beans longer than any inau The Times wots of. If this weather continues much! io nger, ice cream parlors will be the, thing in Brunswick. Then the young! men will sigh for horcan blasts and a ; visit from Mr. J. Frost, of Iceland. Do not let the idea of a monument to Jefferson Davis die out of your minds. That is a sacred duty upon the people ot the South, aud Brunswick must give her share. A vote for bonds is simply shutting the door against the doctors. As amia ble as are these gentlemen, they are always more welcome to our homes in their unprofessional character. Poor Johnstown! Another horrible loss of life in that s'ricken town. Might] before last the cry of liro was raised at a •theatre, and in the panic which ensued] twelve or more lives were lose, and many were mangled iu the crush. There] seems to be some strange fatality hang ing over the town. Mr. W. 11. Turner, the man who navels all over Georgia for the purpose] of conveying the prisoners to the poni-| tertiary, says that there are not l.ulf-! dozen jails in the State that are not J foul blot on a civilized aud Ohristiauj people. Among the exceptions iie notes] the Glynn county jail. Of this one Mr.l Turner speaks iu the highest terms of! praise, paying a just tribute to Sheriff! Berrie as a humane and efficient officer; a! compliment justly deserved. Chaplain MiLiiUitN, of tlie national house of representative!*, in Jiis prayer last Monday morning, offered this in vocation : Almighty God, the land is full of sor row, Hichnel is weeping for her < iilldreii and wid not lie comforted because they ire not; fathers lor their first horn, the pride and stay of their future years; children for their parents, and mil ions sit eold in the atmos phere of death mourning the depasture from the earth of a nmu iieur to their hearts who had readied a term of four score years; grant that the solemn mystery of death, the common heritage of us all, the meaning of which all must kuoxv ere long, may soften amh neal our hearts uml feeling into the noblejj gentleness of the golden text uttered byjj the most conspicuous man of the cen-3 tury, in whom tenderness of heart oiades the greatness of his station and diameter? more illustrious: “Charity lor all;! malice for none.” sj There was the religion of ihe Masters in that prayer, and doubtless it astound-B ed the bitter partisans who heard it, E A NOK.E TRIBUTE. Brunswick honored hers Of yesterday jin the splendid tribute she paid to the [memory of the South’s beloved dead [chief. ] Such an outpouring of the people was, [probably, never lefore witnessed iu the (city. The day was rich with invitations juf fair skies, a temperature as soft a |ever tropics gave, and sunshine mellow land bright. It was a day of solemnity to the peoplt of the South, aut with hearts iu which [sorrow sat supn me, undjwilh eyes tear [dimmed, they gathered o pay a meed of [love and homage to om who has become to then the vie: lious sacrifice of an ac! [for which they h ivc no apologies to offer [or excuses to make. It was a magoilieeut tribute Bruns- Jwick paid Jefferson Davis yesterday. [There was an outpouring of the men [who had fought beneath the stars an:, [bars; gray-bearded and wrinkled-faced [old veterans, adewn whose cheeks tht [unchecked tears found m.hindered fur jrows. There were the sous of these [heroic sires, worthy sons, and daughters pis fair and sweet and pure as their more |tHun Spartan mothers. These and wort Swore present to join in giving expression! [to the grief of the South. [ The exercises at the open house were [notably appropriate. The music wasi [touching, tiie speeches exceptionally [eloquent and the outward expression oi ?tHe inward sympathy with the occasion [peculiarly impressive [ Yes, Brunswick honored herself in [that memorial so 'vice. j Winn Sam Bund. cease to boa proliibi 'tion agitator? !

ODDS AND ENDS. Facts and Fancies- Gathered in Moments of Leisure. * * * A Homan citizen writes me that eit is really true I,hat .Mr. John Temple {Graves, editor of the Tribune of Home, Swill soon become a Presbyterian minis- Jter. The stockholders of the Tribune pare now trying to find a successor to |Mr. Graves. Georgia journalism wil hose a prominent idgure whi n Mr. Graves iretires. He has weilded w ide influence sin the affairs of the State, and iu all J that he has doue has continually had in view tiie right. ** * 1 saw Jefferson Davis three times, under widely different circum stances. I saw him first on the balcony Ijf the Hotel Lanier, just at the close oi |a day early in the tiff’s. 11; was speak ling to a great crowd of enthusiastic !men, who saw in him the embodiment Jol' u cause thoy held dear. I saw him [the second time alter his capture.

He was Gust coming out of the and; pot. Awaiting (him was a vast multitude c fold soldiers, (who, when they caught sight of him. fseut heaven wan. a shout of weleomi [that made the earth tremble. Each of (these scenes is photograpaed upon my (memory, to be forgotten oily when life Jeanses to be. I * * * Judge David Irwin, the corn [piler of the Georgia Code, once gave nuj ja piece of advice which I commend to ail [whom it may concern. otiidhe: “Never [attach your signature to a paper reeom [mending a man until you are certain [you are doing a thing you will not re-j grel.” I * * * A woman’s curiosity is like [Banquo’s ghost—if will not down. j * * * It is not always the biggest (foot that kicks the hardest Big feet [are sometimes afflicted with the gout. i * * * It is dangerous to be original; [for he that is original is considered by| [his neighbors to be intractable, or is be-j jlieved to be a fool. j * * * It is said that tobacco will kid! In dog. It ought. The gifts of the gods] were not made foi brutes. I * * * The man who never sees auyj [good in his fellows is n. g. himself. K. G. I.

It is not a question ot| sentiment, entirely, though sentiment isi a good thing and a splendid motive! power. But it is sentiment and duty,! humanity aud obligation, which prompts to this work. Money is needed by the good womens who have set their hands tothe building! of this hospital. They tell The Times! that they need 100,000 brick to complete] the walls. Their word is pledged to tin j opening of the institution the 18th of! next April. Their hearts are set upon] that day. Shall they be disappointed] and shall it be set down to the discredit] of the city that with all its prosperity! all its increase of wealth, no home of suc-l ;or and relief can be found within its] borders? Let this fact arouse to promwt actioul this morning: There have been but one check for fSOO and three for SIOO each,] received by the builders of the hospital. The rich of the city are doing nothing, giving nothing; the poor have done nobly. What a comment is this! There seems to be no need at this ■ ime to say more. The appeal for aid [ ■oines to you with all the force of a call j o duty. STATE PRESS. Straight Goods. I From the M con Telegraph. J Horse sausage is becoming popular in] [Mew York.
