LOOKING WESTWARD
AS In Other Cities, So We Tend.

as IN Otner Cities, So We Tend.
it has been a peculiar future in real
estate transactions in this city that the
inclination seemed always to go to the
south. The natural consequence of this has
been to run up the price of land in that
direction for miles out. This has caused a
scarcity Of offerings at that point of the
compass, and now, as in other cities all over
the world, we find demand for lands to
the west OF us. The high sandy ridge, so
long neglected, is now attracting attention.
and investors seem Just to have awakened
to its advantages. The Savannah, Florida
and Western on one side, the Charleston
and Savannah on the other, with the West
Broad C IT line bisecting the triangle, give
very decided and unusual advantages for
the location of a city. Capitalists, appreci-
ating this fact, are quietly but rapidly
acquiring all of the large tracts. Manu-
facturers are studying the advantages of
railroad fronts, and construction compa-
MES are realizing that only through our
western gates can new lines of railways
reach this rapidly growing seaport.
Those who are not Sd fortunate as TO hear
of the large transactions that have been
going on recently need not be surprised to
find in the near future that Savannah is
not being overlooked by the holders of
large means who have been investing in
other portions of the south.
There never was & time in her history
when Savannah's immediate future was SO
bright as now. 1t is to bs hoped that those
who have been able to hold for years will
now get the benefits of these years of wait
ing, and not see the appreciation como
when their holdings have passed into alien
hands. ADJ.

THE CIrY's NEW LIGHTING.
The New System a Great Improve
ment over the Old One.

The New System a Great Improve
ment Over the Old One.
The new system of electric lights is now
in operation, and the general opinion is
that the city is much better lighted by the
new arrangement. By comparison with the
old system there are fifty additional lamps
north of Liberty streets, in what may be
called the business portion of the city. and
fifty additional lights south Of Liberty
street.
There are to be some changes and slight
alterations Three or four additional lights
are to be put up-one at Huntingdon and
Barnard streets, and two or three more on
South Broad; and there will be probable
change of two or three lights NVhree thew
can be spared from the squares to the terri
tory lying west of West Broad street and
north of Bay.
Alderman Hartman, chairman of the
street and lane committee, said Yesterday
that he will make during the next ten DAYS
night inspection of the city with a view
to suggesting such changes as may be neces-
sary for bringing the system to the best
possible perfection with the limited number
OF lamps at his disposal City Engineer
Winn, who has aided the street and lane
committee in locating the lamps, said that
to properly light the city there should be at
least hfty more lamps than are now pro-
vided.
On some streets where the lamps ara
located in the middle of the street the side
walks, shaded by the dense foliage of tine
trees, are dark, and as the street illumina-
tiou is supposed to be for belated pedes-
trians the lamps will have to be lowered or
placed at the street corners SO that the side.
walks will get the benefit of the illumina
ton, otherwise the purposes for which the
the lamps are employed will fail to be prac.
tically carried out.
1t is the intention of the street and lane
committee, Alderman Harmon says, to rem.
edy, as far as possible, any defects in a
practical working of the lighting, and all
suggestions in that direction should be
directed to the street and lane committee
which will give them careful consideration.

The Blessing of strong Nerves

Is recoverable, not by the use of mineral soda
tives but by a recourse to effectual tonic treat
ment. Opiates andithe like should only be use /
auxiliaries, and then as sparingly as possible.
Vigorous nerves are quiet ones, and the most
direct way to render them so is TO reinforce the
vital energies. That sterling invigorant Hos

ONLY ONE WINERY.
The Solitary Place at Which En-.
giiSh Wine Is Made.

Pail Mall Gazette.
Being lately at Cardiff, writes CORE
spondent, had the opportunity of Wis.,
ting the only British vineyard from
which wine is annually made. 1t con-
sists of three or four acres of ground
just below the restored feudal chateau
of the marquis of Butte, known
as the Castle Coch. one of
the most eXtravagant reservations
ever accomplished, the expense
of which has been variOuSly estimated
at from 100000 to $4,000. As a result
of all this money the massive turrets of
the chateau rise from among the woods
that overlook the valley of the river
Taft, and where from their base the
land falls away in rapid slope ward
the southeast two fields beneath the
wood have been converted into the sem
blance of French vineyard. Indeed,
chateau and vineyard would not seem
out of place on the banks of the Loire
This year the vines are in magnificent
leaf and luXurantly cover the stakes,
about three feet high, to which they are
attached, their color contrasting finely
with the red soil. The punches, how
ever, are few and far between, and on
Sept ID | could find very few berries
which had begun to color. The vintage
this year will therefore be a failure,
notwithstanding the favorable summer
which has been experienced, the reason
given being that the very bad season of
1888 prevented the wood from ripening.
Next year, it is hoped, may be as good
as the jubilee vintage of 1887, when no
less than nine hogsheads of wine were
produced from three acres.
