to publish the details Of certain land
transactions in this county, IN which
farms have been sold for notes nm

some instances at least, to be worth

charges Of dishonesty on the eastern

we repeat the advice we have often
given farmers before, and that Is
when a trade involves your home, be
careful, act with deliberatiOn, satisfy
yourself thoroughly that you are not
being defrauded but that you are

the subject don't trade till you are

with leading business houses in the former
place. he was young man of sterling char

HISTORIC LIBERTY COUNTY.
What a White Citizen Knows About
LibertY's REPRESENTATIVE Elect.


A Liberty county man, while deprecating
the fact that any immigrants were induced
by false representations to invest in that
county, says that it must not be thought
that Liberty county is unhealthy or any
considerable portion of it is not arabic.
Liberty county" he said, has been and
is the banner county of the southern portion
of the state, the birthplace of governors,
congressman and men who have made their
mark in professional and commercial life.
1t is also noted for its healthfulness and a
favorite winter resort. Walthourville, Dor
chester, Colonefs Island and Sunberry are
all healthy places, and the county has in the
past and now does produce the finest sea
island cotton. 1t has some of the most
fertile lands and islands in the state
Biddeford, Limerick, Laure View, Bell
view, Great island, Halls knoll and
Colonel's island are noted for their fine long
staple cotton"
Abiding to the notice of Representative
elect S. A McIver, the gentleman said that
he used to be coachnan for the Stevens and
wilkins families, two of the wealthiest in
Liberty county, and he was for a long time
manager of their estates. McIver, who
was the husband of free woman, owned
considerable property before the war, and
received a small portion from the United
OLdCeS LOT WldO was cOOuScaUeQ during
Sherman's march to the sea- McIver is
high-toned and above the average of his
race. and now resides on one of Halls
KGo!l, ;" so called because it was at one time
the residence of Lyman Hall, one of the
signers Of the declaration of American in
dependence, and the county was called
Liberty because it sent delegate to tine
liberty convention at Philadelphia. Halls
Knoll is on the old D3rien turnpike, and
families were supplied with marketing daily
from Savannah by the Concord line of
coaches that used to run daily between Sa-
vannah and Darier. McIver was great
caterer, and managed all the holiday enter
tainments given in the winters at the
knoll" by the families. 1t is not far from
old Midway church, a picture Of which is
in one of the histories of Georgia, where all
tho elite Of the county assembled for wor-
ship. a skirnish during the revolution
was near this church and not far from Sun
berry, at the mouth of Sunberry river, at
that time port of entry.
"Since the war McIver was elected
justice of the peace, which position he has
held for many years, and he has done much
to put stop to petty depredations and i'm
prove the moral condition of the county.
This made him unpopular among the law
less class, but that has ceased to dominate,
as his late election shows McIyer was al
one time before the war coachman for
Charles Green of this city, whose slave he
was

ANOTHER WAY OF PUTTING IT.
The Familien Journal on the Political
Situation,

me fa1nlllen journal on the POLITICAL
Situation.
Editor Morning NetCs: In today's issue
of your esteemed paper is a so-caled trans
lation of our last weeks comments on the
political situation. While we admit that
there are words and sentences in every Ian
guage which have two-fold meaning, we
must most earnestly protest against the at
tempt Of putting a construction to our
words which is entirely different from the
real meaning TIE sentences contain. For
instance, yoGr translation says.
1.-The activity, honesty and morality of
Maj. SchwarZ are as well known to tho
American and Irish as to his German fell
low countrymen, and if he shall become a
candidate at this time he is certain to be
elected mayor by colossal majority. Only
the hypocrites and the natives (the Journal
said 'nativisten) will vote against him, and
they are always opposed to everything bear
ing tho name of German"
Now, If the Americans and Irish as well
as the German-Amerlcan citizens, are for
Major Sehwarz, who are the natives" as
the would-be translator does translate the
word "Nativisten." Do we mean Indian?
No, indeed. Every intelligent man, who
reads German newspaper. which is pub
lished in this country, knows very well that
"Nativist" is a man opposed to immlgra-
ito and naturalized citzens-a know
nothing. The word itself is en-
tirely Of German American origin,
and used by the G2rinau-American press
all over the country for the designation of
a elias, of people as above defined. Taere
are IA number Of other so-called transations
which are at variance with the meaning of
the original, but the above mentioned is the
most serious of all, aud to put Us right be-
fore our manor-born fellow citizens, we
resi- ectfully request the pu LEGATION of the
above. KUCKUCK q SEEMANN

THE MAP NOT TO BE FOUND.
A Valuable Survey Of Chatham County
Lost During the War.


A Valuable Survey of Chatham County
Lost During the War.
During the war the confederate engineer
department made a survey of Chatham
county and prepared splendid typograph-
ical and photographed map Of it. 1t is
said that it took two years to do the work.
The map was used in constructing lines Of
defences around the city and along
the water courses, and other APP
proaches. When the city was evacuated
the map, of course, was taken off with
other army papers, and at the surrender of
the confederate army in North Carolina it
disappeared. 1t was supposed that it was
taken with other captured property to
Washington and there placed among the
records of the engineer department.
At the late conference of the county COM
missioDers in regard to the proposed survey
Of the county, Commissioner Estill was re-
quested to see if the confederate map was
In existence, and if so, if the use of it could
be obtained. With this purpose in view,
Commissioner Estill addressed a letter to
Senator Brown asking his assistance in OBJ
tanning the use of the map, If it was still in
existence. 1t appears, however, from the
letter below, received yesterday, that the
map is not in the possession of the engineer
ing department. II is to be regretted that
it cannot be found, as it would have proba-
bly, saved the county large part of the ex-
pense of surveying:
