THE KNIGHTS OF HONOR.
A Healthy City-Fine business Outlook

Correspondence Of the MorRipg Nelo8.
BRUNSWICK, April 1.-THE Grand Lodge of
the Knights of Honor met in this city on yes
terday. \ public reception was given them
at LAroso Hail. and addresses of welcome
delivered by Mayor Creyatt in behalf of the
city aud Mr.. J. L. Dart for the knights of this
city. To day they are out on the water with
their hosts and invited friends, with the
Brunswick band, and will visit Dungenness
and other points of interest on the islands,
and enjoy grand oyster roast and clam bake
on Cumberland. They express themselves as
delighted with their visit
The weather is delightful. visit to Cum
berland is the proper thing now. The attrac-
tlons Of this now famous seaside resort are
being multiplied. new fifty room hotel has
Just been completed by Mr.. Bunkley, with
handsome billiard saloon. The main room on
the first floor will be a ball ROOM A fine string
band viii be in attendance this summer. \
regular line OF steamers VIII be running on
the 2Jth inst.
Many Savannahans visit the island every
summer. The attendance this summer viii
be larger than ever before, as facilities for
coming and going are so greatly improved.
The artesian well in Brunswick is about to be
commenced. Major Busch, the contractor, is
expected here daily to perfect arrangements.
The fire department has ordered 1000 feet
OF new Eureka hose. and contracted for
number of fire wells. The "Oceanics" have
returned from the fireman's contest at Macon
without any prizes, it is true. but proud of
their efforts and joyful over the good time
they had and greatly raised in the estimation
of the community.
The C0rOner's inquest in the case of the kill
ing of Watt Russell resulted IN a verdict of
murder against RUDE PaytOn, who is in Jail.
Both colored men.
\ new guardhouse is now under contract
for the city. 1t will be of brick and sur
rounded by a high brick wall. The County
Commissioners will probably combine with
the city authorities and change the plans so
as to have the jail and guardhouse together
This would result in a larger and more i'm
posing looking structure.
Business is improving and building con-
tinues. \ new building and loan association
is being organized, and will commence ope-
ratiOns on MAY <,
The health of the city is excellent.
Savannah morning news. [volume] (Savannah) 1868-1887, 1884-04-19

The condition Of affairs in Mexico is not
encouraging. Ifreports are to be credited
there is a feeling of uneasiness and dis
satisfaction among the people that threat
ems to manifest itself in hostile demon
STATIONS against the policy Of the present
administration Of the government. The
building of railroads by American capt.
talists and the commercial treaty are said
to be the causes of this feeling. It's feared
that the irrepressible Yankee will
soon own the whole country
The dissatisfied Mexicans say that
their manufacturers cannot compete
with American manufacturers, and that
when the treaty goes into effect they will
have no protection against American
competition. They acknowledge that they
have not the thrift and shrewdness of the
Americans, and they expect, therefore,
that in a short time their plantations, fac
tories and business enterprises will grad
uallv pass into American hands. The
foreign Observation-Disclosures, German
and French-encOurag this feeling be-
cause they see that they will no longer
have almost exclusive control of the
Mexican trade. There is another cause Of
dissatisfaction. 1t is the reckless way in
which the present administration has dis
posed of the revenues Of the government
in subsidies to railroad companies. A
Mexican who arrived a few days ago in
New Orleans said that % per cent. Of the
customs duties had been given away
in subsidies. leaving only 3 per cent. to
meet the expenses of the government.
Nearly all the imports enter the country
at Vera Cruz, and to avoid the payment
of the tariff revenues to the beneficiaries
Of the subsidies it has been proposed to
take all goods in bond to the City of Mex
leo and collect the &uties there. This
plan, OF course, meets the opposition of
those who are to be defrauded. The
Mexican who gave his views to the press
in New Orleans, said that it was not
improbable that Il new party would come
into existence pledged to repudiate all the
obligations contracted by the present gov
eminent to secure the building of rail
roads. There is, without doubt, an I'M
settled and unsatisfactory feeling In Mex
leo which may result in disturbing the
quiet of the republic. 1t may be that the
present administration has aided the rail
roads to a greater extent than the reve-
nues of the government justified; but even
if the administration had been less liberal
it is certain that the opening of the cOun-
try to American capital and enterprise
would have met opposition from that
large class in Mexico who do not want
changes Of any kind. They are bourbons
who, in Mexico as elsewhere, do what
they can to obstruct the wheels of pro-
urpSS
