On Tuesday of ’ast week, while a crowd of
seven negroes employed at the Tudor and H*rt
copper mines, in Haralson coun.y, were re
turn ng from Rccktnart to the mines, they met
on the road a white man named George tt ea
ver, whom, as we learn, without anyprovoca
tion on hts part, three of the negroes cursed
and abused and finally attacked and beat with
rocks, hurting him very badly. The affair be
coming known, a warrant was procured for the
arrest of the negroes at acking .Weaver, and
placed in the hands of Mr. Sam Hunt to exe
cute. On being approached by Hunt, one of
the negroes drew a pistol and attempted to
shoot, but Hunt, seeing his effo t, fired first,
killing the negro instantly. Hunt, it is said,
has fled. The other negroes concerned la the
affair have been arrested and placed in jail at
this place. Their names are BiU Head and Jim
Higgins.
We clip the following Real item from the Ma
con Graphic: “Workmen are blasting away at
the foot at Third street, in order to straighten
the line of the East Tennessee, Virginia and
Georgia Railroad in that locality, and for the
additional purpose of securing ground for a
passenger station. The work is neces
sarily slow and tedious, as a strata
of stone underlies ail the earth in that
vie nity. The heavy explosions heard in that
l> > tlo of the city coir as from the discharge of
ihese powder mine?. The undertaking is a
great on', but gradually the hi 1 is disappear
ing and the tot g of debris and dirt excavated
isoeirg moved along the line to strengthen
weak places and perfect theioadbed When
finished, the passenger depot at that point will
be very attractive both from the fine tree
growth thereabouts and the unusual water
vista presented, up and down tin Ccmulgee."
The Columbus Enquirer-Sun, speaking of
the projected Chattanooga. Columlus and
Florida rtailrcud, says “We nave said but
little in reference to the project of the con
struction of the Chattanooga, Columbus and
Florida Road recently, from the fact that noth
ing new has yet come to light that we feel jug
tified in making public. To use the remarks
of one who knows what he is talking about
‘Unless men are false and all signs fail,’ there
will be something developed after a little that
will cause the public to understand that the
road is a certainty. This will be hailed with
much gratification by the citizens of this
city, as it traverses a rich and fertile
country, passing through Muscogee, Chatta
hoochee, Stewart, Kaudolph, Cainoun, Early,
Miller and Decatur counties in this
State. In l£ri9 Mr. U. B. Gunby, of this c ty,
made a survey and located the line from
Columbus via Lumpkin, Cutbbert, Colquitt
and Bainbridge, to Tallahassee. Florida. We
had a chat with him yesterday, and during the
conversation lie said that theie are only six
bridges along the entire route from Columbus
to Bainbridge, including the one across the
Flint at Bainbridge. There is only one, ex
cepting the Flint, between Cuthbert and Bain
bridge. Mr. Gunby was not in the construc
tion, hence he did not know how many miles
were graded ready to receive the ties and iron,
nor could lie tell us the number of
consecutive miles graded. Our information
is, however, that the road is graded for
seventy miles and the work is continuous, with
an exception cf about ten milei between Col
quitt arid Cuthbert The skip was on sc;our.t
of the light work. A gentleman who lias re
cently been over the greater part of the road
states that it is in fine condition, anil has
wssned but little. The distance from Colum
bus to the r lorida line is ’.3J miles, and the
work of construction will be comparatively
light the entire distance. Tnis will be a valu
able road to Columbus, and our citizens natu
rally take much interest in the project. As
soon as we are able to do so, we will lay before
the n the facts which lead us to believe that it
will not be twelve months before the cars are
running on the line.”

The Tampa Tribune publishes t-e follow
ing from " the Secretary of the National
Board of Health, which was sent to
the Health Officer at Key West: “I am
directed by the National Board of Health to
inform you that it is or opinion from the facts
presented concerning Key West that special
da ger exists from the introduction of yellow
fever through that port, that it is in cl se
communication with Havana, and ther> is no
satisfactory evidence that the authorities of
that port have taken any proper sanitary
measures or precautions looking to the pre
vention of the introduction of contagious or
infectious diseases, more espe daily of yellow
fever, into that port, that previous exp rience
warrants the board in stating that trustworthy
information canuot b* obtained as to the ex
istence of yellow fever in that locality, and
that this board deems it proper to present this
circular letter as a warning to all ports having
commun cation with Key West.”
Tampa Sunlan t Tribune: “As all the world
knows. Mr. Hamilton llisston, of Ptii'adelphia.
purchased, las: year, of the Board of Trustees
of the Internal Improvement of this Mate
4,000,'00 acres of land for 25 c >nts an acre,
amounting to f1,C00.000, to be piid in four in
stallmeuts, the last ir.stall ment to bepaiion
or before the flrjt day of January. I8j;. of
course it was presumed that tbe deeds for this
land would hive beea ready for delivery on the
payment of the lost installment by the pur
chaser and th‘s immense quantity' of
land would bs available for taxa
tion by the flrst of March, isß2,
the time fixed by lw to determine owner
ship for taxation. But the following letter ex
plains itself, and may possibly afford a hint
for the reason of the Disston company being
go liberal in tbe presentation of watches,etc.,to
certain attaches of the fetate Land Office,
It is dated Jacksonville, Fla.. June 25th, and ad
dressed to the Assessor of Taxos, Tampa,
Hill-borough county: ‘The list of lands which
I tendered for sssessment was made on the
understanding that they are to he taken at lay
appraisement of twenty five cents per acre,
beiDg the amount of money invested. Should
you or the County Commissioners decline to
accept such appraisement, then I withdraw
such list of lands as not being subject
to taxation this year, as we
have not received the deed from the State.
We have no desire to avoid taxation. On the
contrary, are quite willing to pay on the
amount of our inves l ment in Florida, even
fore we are liable under the law of the State.
Now, will somebody prance to the front and
let the people know who took the responsibili
ty of arriving at this understanding with the
Disvtoi: Company, that the Disston lands were
only to be tsaed at a value of twenty-five cents
an acre. This is another of those transactions
of this D sston affair which demonstrates
either great incompeteooy or corruption on the
part of this administration.”

HOUSE PROCEEDINGS.
In the House, Mr. Crapo, of Mas
sachusetts, submitted the conference
report on the bill to unable the
national banking associations to extend
their corporate existence. In the course of
a brief explanatory discussion, Mr. Randall,
of Pennsylvania, (Mticised the provision
that the Secretary of the Treasury shall sus
pend the issue of gold certifi
cates “whenever the amount of
gold coin and gold bullion in
the Treasury, reserved for the redemption
of United States notes, falls beJow #LOO,-
000,000.’’ He was not sure but that the pro
viso discriminated against silver, and be
asked that the bill be recommitted to ihs
conference committee, with the view to
having it drafted in better form.
Mr. Crapo declined to yield for that pur
pose, and tbe conference report was agreed
to—yeas lots, nays 78.
Mr. Neal submitted the conference re
port on the bill to increase the water supply
of the District of Columbia. Agreed to.
Tbe House, at 1:45, went into committee
of the whole on the sundry civil appropri
ation bill. After completing the considera
tion of 59 of the 85 pages of the bill, the
committee rose, and the House adjourned.
SENATE PROCEEDINGS.
In the Senate, Mr. Morrill, from the Fi
nance Committee, reported amendments fro
the House bill reducing internal revenue
taxation. They report that after October
Ist. 1882, the additional duty imposed in
1875 of 25 per cent, ou all molasses and
on sugars according to the Dutch
standard imported from foreign countries
shall be repealed, and there shall be a fixed
duty on steel rails at S2U per ton, aril make
the duties on manufactures from hoop,
band or scroll iron the same as those im
posed upon the materials from which they
are made.
Mr. Bayard remarked that the amend
ments had not 'been reported by a unani
mous vote.
Thejbill with the amendments was or
dered reprinted.
The House bi'ls providing for a public
building in Brooklyn, New York, for the
accommodation of the post office. Internal
revenue, and other government offices, at a
cost for th? site and building of $809,000,
and for a like building a*: Oxford, Missis
6tppi, at a cost of $50,000, were reported
witbeu' amendment and passed.
The Senate then resumed consideration
of the river and harbor bill, the question
being upon the amendment repor ed from
the special committee on the subject, ap
propriating $500,000 for the Improvement of
the Potomac fiats. It was passed by a vote
of 52 to 7 after a long debate.
Mr Allison presented a conference report
on the bank charter extension bill, which
was ordered printed and laid over till to
morrow.
Mr. Butler moved an increase of $200,000,
making a total of $500,000 for Ctiaileston
harbor. He had read at the Clerk’s desk a
reeommeudatlon for the increase by General
Utllmore.
Mr. Conger, of the Commerce Committee,
which reported the btll, deprecated an
apparent disposition in Congress to
give undue weight to recommenda
tions which did not come through
the proper committee. He said that
If the committee had followed the sug
gestions for an Increase which had been
made to them through other than official
channels the bill would have swollen to
$75,000,000, He could see no justification
tor the pending motion.
Mr. Butler intimated that South Carolina
was entitled tc benefit by the committee’s
liberality, and called Mr. Conger’s a'tention
to sundry items for Michigan rivers In which
an Increase had been allowed.
Mr. Conger said that where his own State
had received hundreds, other States had
been given millions for rivers. He had been
driven to wonder at his own moderation,
when he heard the demands that were made
by ether States. It was better, however, to
be graud than to be insignificant in
such matters, he admitted, and to de
mand millions at a time and be a man
among men. He supposed that the Senator
(Mr. Butler) would deem it unworthy of
himself to ask less than a couple of hun
dred thousand of increase, but he would
have the Senator to reflect that there must
be a limit to the size of the bill somewhere.
He then argued that Bouth Carolina had
been among the foremost of States in for
mer years in re isting internal improvements
by the General Government, and that this
was hardly consistent with her present de
mands.
Mr. Butler replied, criticising Mr. Con
ger’s remarks as a speech for home con
sumption, and the scolding and sneer* for
the inquiry which he had addressed to
that Senator furnished neither justifica
tion nor pretext. He challenged its cor
rectness in various particulars, and asserted
that the misapprehension into which the
Sena'orhad fallen concerning the record of
South Carolina upon internal improve
ments was upon a par with his misstate
ments generally concerning the Charleston
harbor expenditure.
Mr. Butler’s amendment was rejected.
Mr. Harrison from the Committee on
Transportation Routes to the Seaboard, of
fered an amendment autfcor’z ng the ex
penditure under the direction of the Sec
retary of War of $20,000, or so rafleh thereof
as may be necessarv, in completing the sur
veys of a ship canal to conrect the Chesa
peake and Delaware Bays, and directing
a report to Congress as to which
of the various routes surveyed will afford
the greatest protect'on in ease of war and
most effectively cheapen the cost of trans
portation from Baltimore to the Atlantic
ocean, together with the cost of the im
p-ovement and Its approach and the annual
cost of maintaining and operatiog the canal
when completed. Adopted on a viva voce
vote.
Mr. Morgan said he would demand a sep
arate vote upon the amendment when the
bil! was reported to the Senate.
At this point repeated efforts were made
to adjourn, but Mr. McMillan, in charge of
the bill, insisted upon having It disposed of
before the close of the day. But without
disposing of the pending bill, the Benate,
alter voting to continue the session, re
versed its action amid some confusion and
adjourned.

SAVANNAH. TUESDAY. JULY 11, 1882.
ROBBING TUE MAILS.
A Negro Route Agent’.Nabbed at
Charleston.
Charleston, 8. C., July 10.—Another
scandal has been developed in the post
office at this place, and another one
of the light colored elite, who of
late have found the Charleston
post office a sort of official haven, has come
to grief. John Clyde, route agent be
tween this place and Wilmington, was ar
rested to-day on the charge of robbing the
mails.
The case has been worked up by two
special agents of the department, and the
details bring to light a very peculiar condi
tion of affairs.
Clyde is about 31 years old, and Is one of
the shining lights of the very upper crust
of light colored society here. He is mar
ried, and has a wife and five children, be
sides several other establishments of a mor
ganatic character, the existence of which
has onlv been brought to light since his ar
rest. One of his paramours, a colored wo
man whom he brought here from Augusta,
and who presided over one of his establish
ments, w*6 also arrested.
Clyde is one of the results of the war.
He first got a place In the custom house
and then In the post office, where he has
been for five or six years acting as delivery
clerk, mail clerk, and lately as route agen^.
The complaints as to the robbery of the
mail came from Wilmington, N. C., and the
agents worked up the case. The first theft
discovered was a package of shoes, which
Clyde had stolen from the mall, and this
led to other discoveries until the detectives
had a clear case on him, and he was sent to
jail.
The light colored gentry who have since
the war found soft places in the post office
here have turned out badly, no less than
four of them being now in the Albany peni
tentiary. The arrest of Clyde has caused
quite a sensation in the upper tendom of col
ored life In the city.

BreailstnHs In Britain.
London, July 10.—The Mark Lane Expreas,
in its review of the British grain trade dur
ing the past weekdays: “The unsettled and
rainy weather of the past week has further
endangered the wheat harvest. Eoglish
wheat is now very scarce, and values have
generally advanced fully a shilling. Foreign
wheat has tangibly improved on account of
the increasing uncertainty of the harvests.
There was a better trade on Friday, and
prices were (>d. to lOd. higher. The off
coast market Is firm, and prices are about
61. higher. There were 22 arrivals and 12
sales. More business In forward trade Is
doing. The floating bulk has increased
25,000 quarters. Flour is 61. high r.
Foreign has similarly improved, being in
small supply. Foreign barley has main
tained full prices. Oats are firm. Maize
has improved 3d. to 6d. since Monday, and
on Friday was held for a shilling advance.
The sales of Eoglish wheat daring the week
were 14,191'quarters at 475. 7d. per quar
ter against 16,141 quarters at 46 1. 9J. during
the corresponding week last year.”

above the heart and instantly killed by a
young doubtful reputation, who
passed under the name of Madeleue Btilcs.
She obtained access to his room by
artifice, where a quarrel ensued,
which resulted in his death. The woman
claims that Stiles, who had been for some
time on terms of intimacy with her, had
made her life unbearable by his dissolute
habits and cruelty, and that she had de
termined to leave him, and her announce
ment of this fact precipitated the quarrel of
this morning.

for twenty five cents, when the companies
would have been glad to compromise at
twenty cents.

ing in defiance of the orders, both of the
Khedive and the Sultan. The action now
taken was in simple self defense.
In the House ol Commons Sir Charles

loudly chet red.
The conference meets to day or to-mor

Prospects of the New Crop.
Washington, July 10.—The statistical
returns of the Department of Agriculture
for July, which are very full, show that
cotton has Improved since the Ist of June,
Its average condition being three points bet
ter on the Ist of July. From Virginia to
Georgia, and west of the Mississippi, every
State shows higher figures. From Florida
to Mississippi and Tennessee, the condition
has slightly declined. The general average
is 92, which is higher than In July of 1873
and 1874 and lower than In any other year
of the past ten. It was 93 in 1877 and 1879,
and 95 last July. This condition is due* to
the late, wet spring, and Is rapidly and gen
erally Improving under favoring skies.
The figures of the several States are as
follows: Virginia, 85; North Carolina, 90;
South Carolina, 98; Georgia, 92; Florida,
92; Alabama, 93; Mississippi, 87; Tennessee,
78; Louisiana, 96; Texas, 97; Arkansas, 90.
In Texas and South Carolina the condition
is better than In July of 1881, and the same
as at that date. In Louisiana the drawbacks
reported are those of the past, and are ma
terially deficient stands, slow growth and
general backwardness. The returns are
nearly unanimous in indicating a good de
cree of vigor and rapidity of growth. Thus
far there is only a loss of time for develop
ment and fruitage. Future favorable con
dition may make good the deficiency, but
unfavorable weather in July and August
would make a full crop impossible.

New York, July 10.—A special from

Midville, Georgia, was on Friday last the scene

an interesting talk on the history and merits
of the order. Dancing was also a pleasant
feature of the occasion, and when at length

The frequent complamtß made In Eng
land against Queen Victoria’s complete dis
regard of the court show she is paid to keep
up, are continually drawing attention to her
riches and her hoarding propensities. She
never draws less than two million dollars
annually from the government for court
expenses. She is a wealthy proprietress by
inheritance, and has acquired more than
£2,000,000 from certain possessions of in
testates which revert to the crown. Prince
Albert during his lifetime made extensive
Investments in the heart of London which
have proved enormously profitable. The
Prince of Wales has a fancy for entertaining
and dieplay, but the Queen will not assist
him In bearing the heavy expense, and his
own allowance, though liberal, will not
carry on the state show in style. The shop
keepers are the loudest grumblers because
It hurts trade.

BRITAIN’S REALM.
GLADSTONE SWALLOWS HIS
DEFEAT.
A Proposed Banquet to Davltt—The
Lords and the Bepresslon Bill
—Parliament’s Session Wasted-
Land League Subscriptions.
London, July 10.—The debate on the
second reading of the Irish repression bill
was commenced this afternoon in the House
of Lords. The bill was finally read a sec
ond time without division.
In the House of Commons, Mr. Gladstone
stated that the defeat of the government on
Friday was unprecedented. The govern
ment would use their discretion in employ
ing the powers given them, and he hoped it
would not be necessary to employ all of
them. That was all he had to say on the
subject.
Mr. Gladstone stated he had abandoned
the hope of passing any of the bills men
tioned in the Queen’s speech on the open
ing of Parliament except the corrupt prac
tice bill. He said It would be Impossible to
amend the land bill during the present ses
sion, and that after the passage of the re
pression and arrears bills he should ask for
an adjournment, probably until the latter
part of October, Parliament then to meet
for the purpose of discussing procedure
only.
Replying to a question by Sir Stafford
Northcote, Mr. Gladstone said he would
prefer not to answer questions as to the
government’s intertiou on Jhe question of
procedure before the adjournment in Au
gust.
The Daily Sews learns there* has been an
important correspondence with the Cana
dian Government relative to their acllcn in
connection with the resolndon of the Do
minion Parliament approving home rule for
Ireland. The Imperial Government, the
News tays expressed its emphatic disap
proval of the conduct of the Dominion
authorities.
It is proposed to give a banquet to
Michael Davitt on his return from America.
Patrick Egan, Treasurer of the Land
League, has prepared an a*ceuat of the
slims he has received Unm March to June.
The total amount is £19,740, mostly from

The Dullest Fourth for Yeara-The
Plague ol the Malla-Middle Flor
ida Fair Captain Dfket’ Pears—
Fiah Oil aa a Soyree of Wealth.
Tallahassxe, July 6 .—Editor Morning News:
The “Glorious Fourth” has passed, but not as
in “ye olden time.”- With us it differed from
other days only in being more quiet. Nearly
all of our stores were open as usual, and there
appeared to be but few buyers. Even the
colored element did not turn out in force, and
there were not as many on our streets as on
Saturday. In the early days of emancipation
on every national holiday the negroes from
far and near would flock to the city.
But of late years they have wisely preferred
to have all their celebrations in the country.
On the late anniversary an almost Sabbath
stillness prevailed until the day was c onsider
ably advanced, even the "small boy” almost
forgetting to fire off his crackers. Indeed,
with the exception of a few fired under my
window, I heard no others. At sundown a de
tachment of the Governor’s Guards fired a na
tional salute from the Capitol square, and
tins, I believe, was the only recognition
of the day. There were no ciyic
nor military parades; nothing save the
firing pf a national salute, as was re
marked, to distinguish it from other days.
How different the fourth of thirty-two years
ago, the first I ever spent here. Then as was
the universal custom, the Declaration of Inde
pendence was read, and an oration delivered
The orator on that occasion was the late Hon.
T. J. Eppes. then a young lawyer but recently
admitted to practice. A great-grandson of
Jefferson, he showed by his chaste style and
earnest delivery, that; he was
not an unworthy descendant of
his illustrious ancestor, and was
listened to by a large and appreciative
audience. But these days have passed. The
South of to-day, though not forgetful of her
cherished son who penned that immortal docu
ment, though mindful of the blessings of lib
erty, and loyal to the principles enunciated in
that celebrated instrument, has a most impor
tant work to do. The days of theories with her
have passed; she seeks to rehabilitate herself
with all those elements of success so necessary
to her prosperity. She is becoming practical
Governor Bloxham left a few days ago
for Palatka, where he was to deliver an
address on the Fourth. His easy delivery,
animated style and choice diction have won
for him a deserved reputation for oratory, and
I doubt not but his hearers were well enter-
tained.
The public have always two chronic com
plaints—taxes and the mails. The former are
always high; the latter irregular. While our
mails are much more regular the
present management than formerly, there is
great room for improvement in the handling
of them by the route agents.
On last Thursday week no Savan
nah Mousing News reached this office, and
for two days in succession no Jack
sonville Times was received. On one occasion
I received by the same mail three letters from
different points in East;Florida which had been
twelve days on the route. As they bore the
postmark of Philadelphia, I suppose some
bungling official put them in the through
pouch by mistake. It would not be amiss if
the Post Office Department would send an offi
cial down this way to look into these irregu
larities, for the complaint is widespread. But
while our mails reach us regularly.there is com
plaint of the present arrangement of sending
them from Savannah by way of Jacksonville.
It now takes a day longer to write and receive
an answer from a Savannah correspondent
than at any time in the previous ten years.
The mails for Middle Florida, instead of leaving
Savannah at 4;45 p. m., as formerly, now
leave at 11:40 a. m., and do not reach here as
early as by the former schedule. The old
arrangement would suit us much better, both
for our mails and for travel. It is impossible
now for any of our merchants to send an order
and have it filled the next day at Savannah. If
the Savannah, Florida and Western Railway
would have a train to connect at Dupont with
the one leaving Savannah at 4:45 p.m., instead
of with the one that leaves at 11 p. m., it would
be doing a great service to all this section. In
stead of leaving here at 6 a. m., and reaching
Savannah at 2:30 a. m. the next day, the trav
eler would leave in the 7:30 p. m. train, and
reach Savannah at 9:05 a. m. the next day. So
far from our mail and traveling facilities be
ing better by the present arrangement, thev
are really worse, and if a traveler is in a hurry,
and can stand the extra expense, it
is necessary to go by way of Jacksonville
to reach Savannah, if be should leave here, in
the 7:30 p. m. train.
The Middle Florida Mechanical and Agricul
tural Association are already preparing for
the Fourth Middle Florida Fair, to be held on
the 16th of January, 1883. In the course of a
week they will issue their first circular and
premium list. Five thousand dollars will be
offered in premiums alone. The directors in
their pamphlet, now being prepared for the
press, say that they have taken this initiative
step thus early “In order that all who take a
proper interest therein may have ample time
for preparation. * * The impetus lately
given to truck farming, the new prospects of
other outlets for our products than those we
now have, the interest created by the few ex
hibits from Leon county at the late State F air
in Jacksonville, have infused new life and en
ergy among our people. Our wonderful re
sources are being known, lands are now being
eagerly sought after, and a brighter day is
dawning on Middle Florida.” Should the
same spirit animate this section
that now controls the directory we
may expect the coming fair to be a decided
success. That it will be so I have no doubt,
for never before have I witnessed such a spirit
of progress as now animates this community.
Captain Dyke, the veteran editor of the
Floridian, has lately returned from a trip to
Kist and South Florida. But while he speaks
in glowing terms of the prosperity of these
sections ne lemarked that Middle Florida wjß
good enough for him, and he is showing his
faith by his works, for he is as likely to become
as famous in horticulture as he is in the politi
cal arena, as his fine orchard of LeConte
pears attest. Already he has refused one hun
dred dollars an acre fora nine acre orchard of
two years’ old LeConte*. The Captain thinks,
though, “there’s millions in it,” and won't
sell—indeed, to hear him discourse on the su
periority of the LeConte, the flavor of the Ja
pan pear and the persimmon—how the last
may be grafted on our wild persimmon, how
the cassava is adapted to our soil, and what
a revolution its cultivation would make
in this section, one naturally a3ks:
"Can this be grim battery Dyke?” But it
is even so. Whatever the Captain un
dertakes, he does with a will, and however en
ergetically he may wield the pen and scissors,
he is no less energetic with the plow and hoe.
Nor is our friend Hilton, of tne Economist, one
whit behind his confrere of the Floridim in
his steal in husbandry. Both stalwart knights
of the quill, both practical agriculturists, they
are par nobile fratrum.
And still another new enterprise has been
inaugurated by some of our leading citizens.
A company has been recently incorporated for
the manufacture and sale of fish oil, fish
guano, and the buying, catching and selling of
fish. Capital stock, $25,000. The company
propose buying a steamer at once, and from
the known character of those engaged in it,
success must necessarily crown their efforts.
The fisheries on the Gulf are said to be supe
rior to those on the A1 -antic coast, both as to
the numbers of the finny tribe caught and
their qua'ity. The Gulf coast mullet is almost
equal to the Potomac herring. Hereto
fore these fisheries have not been properly
utilized. The demand has only been local, and
thousands that would have been converted into
eil and guano have been thrown away. Thii
organization will inaugurate anew era in our
fisheries, and, from the amount of capital in
vested, will give employment to a large num
ber of laborers. Thus, step by step, this sec
tion is advancing—slowly it may be, hut steadi
ly and surely regaining its lost position. Some
of our old citizens who looked back with
pride on the palmy days of the past,
who saw no bright future ahead, are
now encouraged, and predict that better days
are fast approaching. But to this are we in
debted, not to the old men who formerly made
Middle Florida what it then was. but to the
young men, many of whom have grown up
since the war. They are mostly the leading
spirits in all public enterprises here as else
where, and in this they have but imitated their
fathers in their day. Leon.

An attempt was made recently to wreck

three of which were considered slow.
The Pope, in his allocution at the consis

gOARBOfto, July B.—Editor Morning Ken J
Five weeks hare elapsed since we sent you one
Jasf communication. The good citizens are en
joying one of those quiet, serene spells whicht
we think is the best evidence of a community’*
happiness, contantedness, and we may ad<*
prosperity. In fact, the monotony is so great!
just now that we can scarcely secure}
matter enough to make up a letter..
The favorable seasons still continue, ami
our farmers are actually jubilant overt
the prospects of the bounteous har
vest they are expecting to reap in the near
future. We are having from two to three re
freshing showers every week, which not only
causes the crops to put on a green and
promising appearance, the fruit to ripen rap-
idly. but cools the atmosphere and instigate?
every one to assume a cheerful countenance.
We are pleased to note, however, that we have
been exempt from the very heavy washing;
rains that have recently fallen in and around;
your city. Our section, which is more hilly and!
undulating than the lands- nearer the coast,
sustain, if possible, more damage than is occa
sioned by a drought.
We attended on yesterday the closing exer
cises of the Scarboro High School, which con
sisted in a thorough examination of all the*
classes. This occupied the entire forenoon,
when the gathering crowd began to as emblei
around a long table to partake of one of thos
bountiful repasts that the good ladies of our
little tillage snow so well how to prepare. To*
say that we di l Justice to the big heaps of good
things hardly co-iveys an idea. Never do we>
thiuk it possible to t njoy another dinner as w
did that one. At 2 p. m. the specta'ors and.
scholars reassembled in Academy Hall anl
the examination for a short while, was re
sumed, then came speeches from tbe little boya
and young men, who acquitted themselves
most creditably. Their noble efforts, we no
ticed, made an unusually deep impression upon
their little favorites of the gentler sex, who, at;
the close of each recitation hurled, with un
erring aim, huge bouquets at their unprotected
heads. Compositions were then read by Missed
Cassie Newman and Alice Brauan, of Bryan
county, on the subjects of '‘Memory," and
‘•Finding Fault with the Worldby Miss Leila
Ravelins, of Tootnsboro, on the subject of
"Be Waiting, be Watching and Beware,” and
by Miss Mattie Wood, of Scarboro, on the sub
ject of ‘Manners.'’ The young ladies deserve
a vast amount of credit for the excellent man
ner in whice their subjects were handled, and
too much praise cannot be ascribed to Prof. J.
J. Jenkins, under whose superb guidance the
school has flourished for the past two years.
I’oltics is beginning to assume a more for
midable appearance. Our people are almost in
a quandary as to who sttall represent our dis
trict in the higher house of our Legislative
Assembly. This has been occasioned by the
refusal of Judge Wensly Hobbv to allow hi*
name to go before the nominating convention,
and declining to become a candidate under any
circumstances. He is our people’s first choice,
and we deeply regret his refusal to enter the
race. However, we think we have an alterna
tive, and would Ruggest the name of T. W,
Oliver, Jr., Ksq., who is well known to our
voters as one of our 'most promising young
lawyers, who has on many occasions given
evidences of superior intellect.
A Democratic mass meeting convened at the
court house in Bvl vania on the 3d inst. and
selected delegates to represent our county'*
interest at the Gubernatorial Convention in
Atlanta and the Congressional Convention
which convenes in your city on the 6th of Sep
tember. Other matters of importance were
acted upon, and the meeting adjourned sine
die.
It is hardly necessary tor me to say that the
delegates to the last named convention were
instructed to support our immediate Repre
sentative, Colonel George R. Black, and to use
every honorable means to secure his ronomi
nation. The know-ledge of his rapid recovery
and the encouraging news that he will ere long
be again in our ruMst, fill the hearts of our
people with unbounded joy. We are informed
that he intends making such an active canvass
of our district as will sweep away to the bogs
of obscurity the slightest recollections of Fel
tonlsm and Radicalism. His father, Hon.
Edward J. Black, represented our interest in
the lower house of the National Congress from.
1839 to 1845. We have recently noticed in the
•‘Bench and Bar” of Georgia, written by Hon.
Stephen F. Miller, who devotes several pages
to eulogizing the noble acts and deeds of this
true Southern gentleman, “That he made sev
eral speeches in Congress, which gave him a
high reputatiorf in debate and for elegant
scholarship. His diction partook of the purity
of Wilde, and of the causticity of Randolph
when impaling an adversary.”
We leave the subject with the Democracy of
our district, and simply ask the question, “la
not the son worthy of the father?”
