GLAD AUGUSTA GOT IT.
The Savannah Military Pleased With
the Encampment Ground.

The Savannah Military Pleased With
the Encampment Ground.
Savannah's military is glad that, as the
state encampment is to be held in a city,
that Augusta is the place. 1t is within
easy reach of nearly every city where there
is any military, and the location
for an encampment is a splen-
did one. June is month when
tie young men composing the military are
better able to get away, and theA chances
are that Savannah will make a good show
ing at the encampmeat. For lack of tents,
OILY about 200 men Will be able to go into
camp at one time. This will be about
thirty compa lies.
The encampment will'lest two weeks, and
it is expected that all of Georgias military
numbering between 1000 and 5000, will be
there at some time. An army officer will
be detailed to inspect the men, and it will be
a matter Of business. The encampment
will, of course, afford recreation, but the
object is to accustom the soldiers to camp
life, and the exercises of the encampment, It
deal of good. Il is not likely
that all of Savannahs military will 90 at
once. IL is necessary that some of them
remain here while the rest is away. The
same fact will exist with regard to the mill
tary in other cities. 1t is understood that
not all will leave at once.
There was some talk of having the en-
campment in the park at Macon, but Au-
gusta was finally decided upon. The Off
GERS say that it was a good decision. The
exposition grounds, where the encampment
will be held, is but a short distance from
the city, and in splendid location.

THE ROAD IMBROGLIO.
City Attorney Adams Opinion on the
Lap llLY Of Citizans n Road D,,trr

City Attorney Adams Opinion on the
Liability OF Citizens to Road Duty.
The action of the city council with refer
ence to the Louisville road, in which the
citizens Of the first militia district are in
formed they are not subject TO road duty,
does not seem to have shaken the faith If
the justices who, had..their Overseers serving
the summonses yesterday as usual
In this connection the opinion of the CITY
attorney will be read with interest. and
subJolned IS the full text of Mr., Adams let
ter of advice:
SAVANNAH, Jan. 81, 1890.
AtdeTmdn r. F. Harmon. Esq:
DEAR SIR-Referring TO the communication
TO council from the justices of the peace for
the First q. NJ. district and the accOnpanyinn,
order from the chairman of the board of road
commissioners, L beg to advise that in nv
opinion there is no authority OF law for these
paroles, or the chairman of the commissioners,
10 require any citizen residing within the cor
porate limits of the city OF Savannah to work
upon the portion of the Louisville road men
toned.
In the order to the justices, citation is made
10 section coz OF the present code. which pro-
Vides for action like that demanded when the
nam streets OF an Incorporated town or city
continue in a state of neglect for three months.
u seems to me that the part of the road
IN bad condition cannot be called
any portion OF one of the main streets
OF the city Of Savannah, and that, therefore
TINS section has no application to the facts As
It now appears this section has been a law of
the state since the first code went into eff ct
namely, since Jan. l, 1853. A portion of it has
en- the law since 1888. Even if the road
referred to were one of the main
streets of the city, 1 think that the
local law for Chatham county. approved
Fec. Is, 1876, entitled an act to ter and amend
and consolidate the various road laws appli-
cable to the county of Chatham, and for 9th r
purposes, in its purpose and design, exempts
residents of the city from all work of this
character.
Tnis is matter that seems to concern par
ticularly the chairman of the road commission
ers the two justices of the peace, and the resi-
dents OF the district. Council has, strictly,
nothing to do with it. But as the matter has
been referred and my opinion has been asked, l
give it. Should council accept this portion of
the road as one of the city streets it
will then deserve sucn attention from
your committee as in their good Judgment
Is right an proper within the means supplied
them. just now council does not seem TO be a
party to any issue or controversy, and any
action that it takes on the petition of the JUS
tees cannot be more thans- advisory They
seem, however, to be complaining of the
mandate of the chairman of the road commits
sioners. Very truly yours.

IN AND ABOUT GUYTON.
A Lively Budget Of Information from
bingham.

A Lively Budget Of Information from
Efngham.
The country around Guyton has been
suffering some time from the drought, which
has materially hindered all classes of work.
The rain few nights ago, while not suffi-
Gent, has helped out truck farmers and
gardeners to considerable extent.
The forest fires have not spared Effing-
ham. and, while they have ragged along the
line Of the Central, no very great damage
has been reported, except to the property
of George IL. Miller and on some turpentine
farms around Blooming1ale. Mr.. Miller
lost considerable wood and about mile of
fencing, and at one time his residence and
out-houses near the station narrowly es-
capped, 50 furious were the fires. 1t is not
known to what ex ent the turpeltine
farms have suffered, but in places
the loss is said to be considera le.
The country along the line of the railroad
seems to be infested with an unusual num-
Der of trampS, and it is thought by many
the forest fires originate from their camps.
Mr.. and Mrs j. w. Lawton, who took
quarters at the Lanier house some time ago,
have met with a sad bereavement IN the
death of their little 5-year-old daughter
Nellie, who was brought to Guyton with
the hope that change would prove benef-
cial, but her illness proved fatal. Mr..
Lawton is experimenting the construction
OF the new Postal Telegraph Company.
The Central railroads construction gang
has reached Guyton in its work of tasting
up the light weight rails and substituting
the 70-pound steel rails, which have been
found necessary TO meet the large increase
of freight and passenger traffic. It is said
that the company IS anxious to put il an
other side track to accommodate the rap
idly increasing bust ness of Guytoa freights,
but the ground upon which the proposed
track is to run encroacheS slightly on one
of the public streets, aud the town authori-
ties. it is understood, have objected, not
wthstanding the street is a very wide one,
and the additional space necessary to enable
the cars loaded with freight to be
run up and be discharged would not
greatly narrow it. The arrangement,
according to the views of many, will il no
wise be detrimental to the street or the
town, but on the contrary it is believed that
it will he very great accom- notation to
the citizens of Guyton and those in the
country who have business with the rail-
road
The sociable given on Thursday night at
the residence of Capt. and Mrs. Powers was
attended by the elite of the town and
proved a most enjoyable affair.
Maj. j. B. Preston of Augusta is tempo
rarily stopping at the residence of his son,
j. W. Preston, at NARROW.
Maj. Tyree of Washington, D. c., is Wis
iting his daughter, Mrs. Frank Arden, at
Guyton.
The Misses Dempsey, who have been
spending pleasant time with Mrs. Arden,
have gone to Savannah.
Judge Amos F. Rain, the ordinary, and
A. j. Shearouse, CLERK of the superior court
of Effingham, have been visiting Savannah.

Chr. G. Dahl & Co. cleared yesterday the
Norwegian bark Brilliant, for Harburg,
with 5SS barrels of rosin, weighing 2, 1885,
430 pounds, valued at 50, 100. Cargo by
Messrs. S. p. Shooter & Co.
A survey has been held on the stranded
schooner Frank Harrington, on the south
side of Tybee. The board consisted of
Joseph A. Roberts, Capt. A. t. Young of
the schooner Ida Lawrence, and one port
warden. The surveyor were accompanied
by John N. johnson, Esq, agent of under
writer's. They found the vessel on the shoal
of the south breaker. and on the rise
of the tide the water flowed in and out of
her by way of the open matches. Toe con-
tents of the forward house were gone, with
the inside WORK of the cabin, but with
proper appliances and continued good
weather the vessel may be saved. While
she leaked from the severe pounding, she
seems to be in good condition otherwise.
With the means at hand and avail
able, the probabilities, however, are
against saving her. The survey
ors recommend that all sails,
rigging, etc, be stripped off the vessel AID
brought to the city, and if means cannot
speedily be obtai ed for getting her ahoa5,
that the hull and cargo, if any cargo he left,
as also the saved materials, be sold for &C
count of all concerned. In accordance with
the above recommendations, the Propeller
Tow-boat Company will send down tug
TODAY to try to get the vessel off.
