the car stopped in order that we might talk
to this little negro.
He was about - years old, and was COM
fortably well-dressed. He did not seem to
be above the average mentally, but his Eng
lish was scrupulously pure. There was no
dropping of the final consonant as with the
up-country darkies. His tongue took in the
is, the p's, the DIS, just as the most carefully
taught Caucasian tongue does. There was no
affectation in the boys manner: he did not
seem conscious of the extraordinary melody
and accuracy of his intonations. Afterwards,
[ noticed the same popularity of speech in the
Darien negroes They speak absolutely cor
rect and musical English. Some day, mean
to take vacation, down in that delightful
region, among those charming white folks,
and study those remarkable blacks. [ believe
that they did not originally come from the
West coast of Africa but from the interior
of the Dark Continent They may have been

or one of his brothers. and sold into slavery
to one of the pirate-partners of Queen Eliza

Next morning, at 9 o'clock, we resumed
our search for Darien Sand, deep: sand,
deeper: sand, deepest 'Let's get out and
walk" became a familiar and melancholy
suggestion, on this trip. We footed it most
of the way to Darien. But we got there, at
last.
Then we had six miles to 90, by ferry
And while we were finding the ferry, and
then the ferryman, had as much leisure as
was needed to view the city, itself My
calmly deliberate opinion is, that if had
finished all the work there is for me to do,
and had nothing else on this earth to do I
would rather do it in Darien than any
where else. The environment suits; the
atmosphere suits; public opinion suits;
everything suits. IF a man were to grow
hasty, not to say impetuous, about any thing
whatsoever in Darien, I honestly believe that
he'd be run out of town, unless he pledged
himself to slow down and ease up.

Did you ever see the Marshes of Glynn!
Did you ever read the wonderful poem of
Sydney Lanler!
[ don't believe that one Georgian out of
ten thousand realizes what a marvel South
Georgia is. The vast eXpanses of deep-Water;
the immense area of reclalmable marsh and
swamp; the variety and extent of the timber;
the possibilities for rice and cane culture;
the unlimited supplies of fish, oysters, lob
sters. ETC., that scientific methods might pro-
duce, in perpetuity the fabrics that might
be manufactured from these luxuriant
grasses; the incalculable wealth that would
be ours, fifty years hence, if the people would
quit destroying the young long-leaf pines
with these devastating annual fires.
Think of pasturing few inferior COWS
and razor-back hogs at the sacrifice of re-
foresting the best timber region on earth!
If they would only let Nature alone, the
South would, in half-a-century, dictate her
own price for her matchelss yellOW-plne logs
and lumber
We reached Brunswick at noon. [ had been
promising myself luscious fish dinner. AS
our ill-luck would have it, we inquired Of a
certain Man, at the street corner, the loca-
ton of the restaurant. This Man nimby
stepped on to the fender of the car, with a
cheerful alacrity that should have aroused
suspicion. He piloted the auto down the left
side of the street, block or so, and then
pointed over to the right, saying, "The res
taurant is across there; but the ladies are
giving dinner over here, and you can get a
full dinner for so cents"
''Will you walk into my parlor?" said the
Spider to the Fly
Sure! 1t never fails. [ wonder some
times whether [ ever will have any sense
When that Man-who was transparency
decoy- duck-said what he did about 'the
ladies'" Like blamed fool-exclaimed,
"The ladies first, always!" and we walked
right into what we might have expected.
Mind you, now, I don't say that it wasn't a
good dinner. By no means. On the con-
trary. [ think a starving man would have
praised it, highly and sincerely. It may be
that there are men living who, if consulted
beforehand would order just that sort of
dinner Note my caution: do not positively
assert that any living man a0ouzd order that
kind Of dinner: [ merely say that such man
maiqht be discovered But he was not a mem
Der of orr party.
"The ladies" placed our dinner before us,
with smiling confidence. Like man himself,
this dinner was wonderfully and fearfully
made. 1t consisted of more different things
that tasted exactly alike, than any meal that
[ have tried to eat, since I was member of
the Georgia Legislature and boarded at the
old Kimball House.
Apropos of that, I remember that [ went
to Col. Bill Tut, one day, in my troubled,
perplexed state of mind; and inquired
whether he also had remarked that the food
all had the same TASTE [ was fresh from a
country town and was bothered. Col Tut,
being from the same town, it was natural for
me to mention the matter to him, first.
