9u MfuiorIaMl.

The sudden death of Mrs. GEORGE A. NICoLI
at Glasgow, Scotland, on the 9Th inst. while
visiting her sister, Mrs. Blackie, was a painful
surprise to her family. and to her large circle
of friends in Savannah.
Her health had always been excellent, and
she gave every promise of a long and beauti-
full life.
Mrs. NIcoLL came to Savannah from her
native State, Virginia. Immediately after her
marriage in 1853 and, with short intervals of
temporary absence, resided here continuously.
Her striking personal beauty commended her
at first sight to all who beheld her; and the
opportunity to know her womanly and lovable
qualities soon ripened acquaintance into at
tachmenr
A most affectionate and devoted daughter
and sister, with heart and person framed to
gladden. the home circle, and nature quick to
incorporate the best elements of Christian
growth, it was meet that she should adorn.
with ever increasing bloom. the offices of
mother, wife and friend.
Her character was pervaded by great sim
plicity of feeling and 6emeanor, which be-
trayed itself in the softness and gentleness of
her voice and manner, in an amiability never
ruffisd and serenity seldom disturbed.
The bloom which never faded in her face was
typical Of the soft and gentle colorlng of her
nature. She was wonderfully free from pre-
JUDGES and anJagonSmS.
Storms and troubles came to her, as to lis all,
but the current of her years flowed calmly on
through deeps and shadows, for the steadying
strength OF loving heart, and the protecting
power of piouS soul, preserved the beautiful
equilibrium of a Christian life.
The memories that rise up to family and sur
vivors only tender and lovely; they are
those of the dutiful daughter, of the true and
gentle wife and mother, of the faithful and
sympathizing friend. There are voices of sor-
row, but none of bitterness or regret.
The echoes that come from the past are very
sad, but gentle and beautiful. The tears that
pay tribute to her worth catch the light Of
loving recollections and OF Christian faith.
those who knew and loved her are better
that she lived.
The children deprived of her tender care will
feel the inspiration of her love and life.
She lived in this world in close proximity to
God, and she has passed away with the trust
of a loving child into the eternal rest and joy
of loving Father.

The Elkton (Md) Democrat of the 28th has
the following in reference to young man
who was for some time employed as bar
keeper at the Screven House:
"Early yesterday morning the attention Of
the bailiff was called to a crazy man who
was wandering along the race bank, near
Towards ice house, in an almost naked con-
dition, trying to catch fish with broom,
whereupOn the bailiff attempted to arrest
him, which he was prevented from doing by
the stranger wadiDg across the race. The
bailif returned to town, and procuring the
assistance of the sheriff and his deputy,
returned to the race and effected his
arrest. He was safely lodged in jail,
where our reporter interviewed him
shortly afterwards. He gave the name of
Edward RoddY, and said he had resided in
Savannah, Ga, for the last six years, where
he had been employed In an hotel tending
bar, and had recently been on visit to
Washington, d. G. He showed one of the
prisoners IN jail through ticket from some
place In the South, the name of which the
prisoner has forgotten, to New York city,
from which It Is apparent that he got off
the train at Elkton some time on Thursday
night or Friday morning. He is of sandy
compile xion, about five feet five inches in
height, well clad, and had with him about
eleven dollars in paper money"

We direct the special attention of our
readers to the attractive sd 2, rtisement of
Mr.. z. }. Acosta, Jr., II =. !facturer of
crackers, cakes and candies, corner Barnard
and Bay streets, which appears elsewhere.
Mr.. Acosta has now one of the best ap-
pointed bakeries in the South, but his bust
ness has increased so rapidly that he Is com
PEELED to enlarge his facilities, and has Just
given a contract to Roth, Mcmahon & Co.,
who are the largest manufacturers In
Chicago. for a new oven, which is now being
constructed, and will be placed in position
before the opening of the fall season. This
addition will give Mr.. Acosta's establish
ment double the capacity 1t now has, suf1-
eient to meet the demands OF his growing
trade. He has also from the same firm, and
now in operation, a machine for turning
out the different varieties Of fancy cakes,
such as vanilla waters, jumbles, drop cakes,
lady fingers, etc, and will make the manu-
facture of these goods feature In his bust
ness. We examined Saturday specimens of
these cakes which had just been turned
ont and found them fully equal to any of
Northern manufacture we have seen. They
are well favored, excellently made, and put
up In the best style. We have no doubt
that there will be an immense demand
for these goods throughout this section, as
orders are already on file from Augusta, Ma
con and various points throughout this
entire section. Mr.. Acosta is gentleman
full of enterprise and energy, and is deter
mined that Savannah shall have a manu-
featuring cracker, cake and candy estab-
lishment equal to any in the country, and
will furnish to his customers the best goods
at prices which cannot be discounted In
other markets. Dealers and all others, city
and country, will be benefited by visiting
his establishment and giving their orders,
which will receive prompt attention and be
filed to their entire satisfaction. Remember,
