David Davis as President pro tem. of
the Senate.
The Cincinnati Enquirer says that in
consequence of the drought there will
not be more than half the average yield
of tobacco in the section of country trib

The little round pieces of looking
glass now set beside each plate at the
most fashionable resorts at the dinner
table, as a rest for the wine glasses, min

The Jewish Messenger comes out in
favor of removing the women’s gallery
and letting wives sit with their husbands
in the synagogue, also for abolishing all
restrictions upon their holding religious
offices.
General Swaiui, says a correspondent,
spends twelve hours out of every twenty
four with the President, has lost twenty
six pounds in weight while nursing his
friend, and his hair has grown many
shades grayer meanwhile.
Gov. St. John, of Kansas, denied re
cently that his State’s prohibitory liquor
law had checked the inflow of immigra
tion, but the thorough going Prohibi
tionists admit the fact and declare that
Kansas does not want “beer drinking
Germans.”
The sudden outbreak of crime in
Canada has surprised the people of that
northern clime. There are four murder
ers in prison at Ottawa, one at Kingston
and another at Quebec. The crimes were
similar in character, and occurred at
nearly the same time.
A British taxpaver, in an article pub
lished in the London Echo, estimates
Queen Victoria’s fortune at $80,000,000.
Her annual income from the govern
ment and from the profits of her in
vested capital amounts to about $3,250,-
000, over half of which she saves.
On Saturday, in Quincy, 111., an at
tempt was made by a score of men and
boys to burn the editor of the Herald in
effigy. It was frustrated by the attack
and dispersion of the mob by the Herald
employes. The editor has made him
self obnoxious to the whole country by
his abuse of Garfield.
The scarcity of gold in Europe is
stimulating the bi-metallic agitation there
which was initiated by the recent Inter
national ilonet&ry Conference at Paris.
The efforts of the bank3 to check the ex
portation of gold to this country have
the effect of emphasizing the demand
for the double standard.
Water is getting to be very scarce up
in the mountains of Southwestern Ar
Kansas. Springs and wells that were
never known to fail before are drying up,
and some farmers have had to haul water
several miles from the Caddo, which is
lower than it has been for years, for their
stock and home use. Consequently a
great deal of sickness is the result.
Congressman Cox writes of the Nor
wegians: “We see no beggary, no poor
houses or jails; we hear of no crimes or
violence. No locks are needed upon
doors. Drunkenness is rare. They love
music and flowers, and are devoted to
their faith aud their families. They are
never idle. Even the girls are knitting
while attending sheep and cows.”
The Colored Press Association of the
United States, at the recent meeting in
Chicago, passed a resolution declaring
that the colored press of the country ad
vocates the repudiation of $14,000,000
of Virginia's State debt. We are in
formed by the Republican organs that
all colored persons are “naturally Re
publicans;” so we must infer that they
are also “naturally” repudiators of obli
gations, State and National.
The records of two fools came to light
last Saturday. One was furnished in
the case of a New York cloak raanufac
turer, who dabbled in stocks in Wall
street, the other by that of a young lady
who went in bathing: at Long Branch,
leaving $-550 worth of diamonds in the
bath house on the beach. Need it be
added that the first bankrupted himself
and his partners and then absconded,
and that the latter lost her jewelry?
St. Louis is getting to be about as
dangerous a place to live in as the old
fashioned mining camps and temporary
terminal points of the overland railroads
used to be. Since the adjournment of
the last grand jury in that city, the 14th
ult., which left twenty-six murder cases
on the docket, there have occurred nine
deliberate cold-blooded murders, three
homicides, and thirty-five cases of assault
with intent to kill. The officers of the
law seem to be indifferent or powerless
to prevent crime or punish criminals,
and a vigilance committee is hinted at.
The Radical politicians of the North
arc stepping on dangerous ground when,
for party purposes, they give aid and
comfort to Mahone and his black and
tan repudiating faction in Virginia.
The South is not oecuniarilv interested
in the government bonds, and once let
it get into the beads of the colored voters
that repudiation is a popular idea at the
North, and it would be the easiest thing
in the world for political demagogues t
organize a powerful party in the South
in favor of repudiating the national debt
It would be an easy matter to convince
the average colored voter that the bond
holders had already been amply paid,
and that further taxation to pay interest
on the bonds would be robbery of the
poor for the benefit of the rich.
The Mississippi Republicans and
Grecnbackers have agreed upon a State
ticket, and there is a probability that the
bargain also covers the Senatorsbip now
held by Mr. Lamar, for which General
George McKee (Republican) is an aspi
rant. The coalition candidate for Gov
ernor, Hon. Ben. King, has until recent
ly been a Democrat, ana the Republican
organs have been assuming that his nomi
nation would “ensure an honest ballot,
a fair count and a free election.” This
assumption was based upon an alleged
belief that Mr. KiDg has heretofore been
connected with “Democratic frauds"
and is, therefore, competent to prevent
the practice of sueh methods against his
own candidacy. But, in his speech to
the Greenback State Convention, Mr.
King is reported by the New York Timet
(Republican) as stating that “while he
was acting with the Democrats and con
trolling the negro vote, there was no bal
lot box stuffing, no bulldozing, and no
riots in his region."
The Real Bourbons.
Rabid Republican organs take pecu
liar delight in applying the term “Bour
bon” to those men at the South who,
having staked their all for principle,
steadily decline to surrender their con
victions as to the relations the Constitu
tion established between the Federal
Government and the States. At the same
time there are those among us who,
with an eye single to the spoils of office,
seek recognition as liberal minded indi
viduals, and are ready for anything and
everything.
The term “Bourbon,” if it can be em
ployed with any significance at all,
means precisely what it meant when ap
plied to the hapless French house which
the great Revolution swept away, and
which, though restored, ere long disap
peared from the stage of France. Of its
representatives it was said, “They learn
ed nothing, and forgot nothing.” I sed
in this, its real meaning, to whom in this
eountry can it be better applied—to
Southern Democrats or Northern stal
warts?
In the tremendous conflict between
the sections, the impracticability of a
dissolution of the Union was conclusive
ly settled together • with the fate of
slavery. Waiving the question of re
sponsibility for the bringing about of
the disastrous struggle, it may well be
conceded by the most ultra of the loyal
ists that the South had the most to for
give and forget. The carnival of waste,
wrong end tyranny that marked the era
of reconstruction was an added strain to
her magnanimity; and yet the South, as
a people, has forgiven, and in time will
forget.
In the last campaign, she honored
with her devotion the bravest of her
former foes, and the heartiness of her
indorsement of Hancock was convincing
proof of her burial of the past.
Since that fatal Saturday when the Chief
Magistrate was stricken down, there has
been but one theme, one heart, one hope
among her people. This alone should
silence her slanderers.
Where in all the borders of this broad
land are to be found more intolerant,
more persistent and more stubborn treas
urers of the past with its woes, its blood
and sacrifice, than the recognized lead
ers of public opinion at the North, who
are ever holding back the flood of
oblivion that would long ago
have swept away the last traces of preju
dice and hate? These men are the real
“Bourbons.” They set back the hands
on the dial of reconciliation, and ever
appeal to the public of the North to
smother the feelings of friendship,
which the South has continually sought
and would gladly reciprocate.
These men can learn nothing and
never will forget. They know that the
intelligence of the South can never be
cajoled, bribed or forced into an in
dorsement of Radicalism, the sole task
left which is the overthrow of the auto
nomy of the States and the seating of
the strong man in the chair of the Ex
ecutive. They hope by encouraging the
ignorant that the dissensions of faction
will keep alive the animosities of the
past and smooth the path to centralism,
which is the goal of their endeavor.
But there is a barrier to the march of
Radicalism which it cannot surmount,
and behind it stand in solid array the
“Bourbons” of the South and the Demo
crats of the North, whom neither the
allurements of preferment can seduce,
nor the onslaughts of calumny, nor the
bayonet of the soldier can dislodge. This
barrier is the bedrock of Democracy,
which the changes and the storms of the
century have not moved. Deep down in
the hearts of the people the conviction
of its value rests. Jf to refuse to sur
render that conviction is to be a “Bour
bon,” then the term is a proud distinc
tion and cannot be made a reproach.
Senator Hill, who is now at his home
in Atlanta, expresses the opinion that in
the event of the death of President Gar
field, General Arthur would make a safe,
conservative President, and that the
country would be benefited by any influ
ence Senator Conkling would exercise
over him. He thinks the remark attri
buted to Senator Beck that Senator An
thony should be made President pro tem.
of the Senate “a very foolish one.” Mr.
Hill says the Democrats will adopt such
a policy as they believe, under all the
circumstances, will best secure the peace
and promote the good of the country,
and his own opinion is that a Democratic
President pro tem. of the Senate in the
present exigency would be a measure
both of security and peace. Mr. Hill
says he thinks “it is high time for the
Democrats to stop making concessions
to a party which has assassinated the
Constitution and now seems determined
to assassinate itself.”
Republican papers which are afliicted
with short memories are denouncing the
Democratic candidate for Governor of
Virginia for having favored, some years
ago, the payment of U. S. bonds in paper
instead of gold. The records show that
quite a number of prominent Republi
can leaders in Congress held the same
view of the matter. For instance, the
since deceased Seuator Morton, of In
diana, and among the living, Senator
Sherman, of Ohio. As the latter, despite
his position on the bond question, was
considered quite good enough to be Sec
retary of the Treasury Department, al
though thus closely connected with the
redemption of U. S. bonds, it is tolerably
evident that CoL Daniel is not disquali
fied by holding the same opinion from
occupying the office of Governor of Vir
ginia, which has no connection what
ever with the redemption of U. S. bonds.
The last Legislature of New York
passed an act “for the preservation of
the health of female employes,” the en
forcement of which is being urged by
the New York papers. The act provides
that it shall be the duty of all employers
of females in any mercantile or manufac
turing business or occupation to provide
or maintain suitable seats for the use of
such female employes, and to permit the
use of such seats by such employes to
such an extent as may be reasonable for
the preservation of their health, and
every violation of the act by any em
ployer is made a misdemeanor. The law
is a reasonable one, and its enactment
and enforcement in other States would
be in the interest of both health aud hu
manity.
According to advices from London,
the late rains in England have nearly
ruined the crops. Even if the most
favorable weather set in, not more than
half a crop could be saved. The farm
ers and landlords are in despair, and
hundreds of farmers will emigrate and
more suffer ruin. The price of land,
already seriously depreciated, has gone
down during the past fortnight Doubt
less, these statements will be somewhat
modified by later advices. The early
reports of disasters to crops are almost
invariably exaggerated, but ia this case
the damage is undoubtedly sufficient to
afford great encouragement to the grain
gamblers of this country.

Jacksonville. August 30.—A meeting of
great importance to the future welfare of
Florida was held ia this city recently. Whether
its results will be beneficial depends to a great
extent upon the manner in which the work
suggested by the convention will be executed.
If the recommendations of the tiody be re
ceived cordially, and a hearty effort is made to
carry out the business so happily commenced,
great good will be accomplished. If,OB the other
hand, the resolutions adopted are merely
strings of well chosen words to please the ear,
without vitality and without moaning, the
seed may germinate, but they will have a
sickly existence, sndsoon wither into nothing
nets. I am inclined to think, however, that
the tree that was planted will take firm root,
and throw out wide, spreading branches that
wiU extend shade and shelter to thousands.
The gathering was rather peculiar in some
respects. It was perhaps the first convention
called py the people themselves to promote
the purposes of immigration. Asa general
rule this subject is usually the peculiar pro
vince of legislative bodies, whose action is not
always uniform and acceptable. Here iu
Florida we have a Bureau of Immi
gration, which has received for the
past three years the insignificant sum
of five thousand dollars for its maintenance.
Two thousand dollars of this amou it are to be
expended annually iu the publication and cir
culation of documents, giving information as
to the resou’ces and advantages of the State,
and the remainder goes to the salaries of the
officers and contingent expenses. Kven with
this small amount the Bureau has accomplish
ed wonders, and its fruits can be seen in the
steadily increasing influx of population.
The correspondence of the Bureau is large
and grows constantly, while the demand for
its pamphlets gives assurance of the interest
taken in the State by outside parties. Those
who are acquainted with the work done by the
institution, know that it has effected much for
the good of Florida, and would gladly add to
its power and efficiency. It is only those who
arc ignorant of its value who deny the credit
to which it is eminently entitled, and who re
gard the appropriation as a waste of the pub
lic money.
Although not quite one-half of the counties
in the State were represented, yet the spirit
displayed by those who were present was in
the highest degree encouraging. It was a re
markable cosmopolitan assembly, and Bour
bons and Republicans men of all nationalities
and creeds forgot their usual points of vari
ance, and acted with great accord and har
mony to promote the general welfare. Ihere
was very little sectional feeling or local jeal
ousy apparent, and the proceedings through
out were agreeable and satisfactory.
A simple plan was proposed, which, if adopt
ed by the counties, will supply a want tint has
been loDg felt, and will furnish at very little
trouble and expense a large mass of authentic,
practical information. Each county is earn
estly urged, without delay, to organize an as
sociation, whose duty it shall be to collect all
the data bearing upon the soil, products,
health, means of transportation, school and
church facilities, and all other matters of inter
est to the prospective settler. These facts are
then to be placed in the hands of a eemmittee
of discreet, intelligent men, who will furnish
a condensed report of the facts thus obtained
to the Commissioner of Immigration, who will
incorporate the various papers in his forth
coming pamphlet Matter to the amount of
two thousand one hundred words from each
county will be inserted. These reports should
be carefully prepared, and should be of such a
character that the statements therein set forth
can be established if their accuracy should be
called in question.
Nothing should be omitted that might be of
value to the inquirer. Such a complication
would necessarily be full and complete, and
would constitute a publication of great value.
No time should be lost in getting at work
upon this matter. The pamphlet should be
ready for distribution at tbe Exposition at
Atlanta, which will open in Gctolier. This
work, with the exhibition which Florida will
make at Atlanta, will direct much attention
to our State and draw crowds in ttiis direction.
Let every county get to work at once and in
the right spirit. The labor required will not
be misapplied, and a rich reward is in pros
pect. The delegates went away in an enthu
siastic frame of mind, and they must stir up
their respective communities into prompt,
energetic action. The papers must bring
their powerful influence to bear, and the re
sult will be a triumphant success.
Active measures were also taken to have the
State thoroughly aud worihily represented at
Atlanta, It ia ascertained that the Waycroßg
and Transit Railroads have secured space for
an exhibit of the products of th a -ountry
through which they pass, ad the . ulcers of
these Tines are to be commended for he enter
prise th-y have displayed. A full and interest
ing display of the tropical and semi-tropical
fruits of this State may be expected. It is in
contempia'ion to bring on specimens of the
various fruits in full bearing, so that a clear
idea may be obtained of the peculiarities of
each variety. This feature alone will add
greatly to the Florida department, and will
prove a great attraction to the visitors. Monroe
county, at the extreme southern portion of
the State, has signified her Intention of con
tributing to the exhibit, and her collection will
be rare and curious.
If the proper feeling can be aroused, and the
importance of making a good display be com
pletely understood, tne exhibit made by Flori
da will be inferior to that of none of her sister
Southern States. In many features she can
not be rivalled. There are so many odd, quaint
and strange things found on her soil, iu her
waters, and along the coast, which are not
found elsewhere, that a specimen of each class
would constitute an extensive museum.
The Eastern and Western people will throng
the space reserved by Florica, and many will
be their expressions of delight and wonder.
Arrangements Mill be made for weekly dis
plays of fruits,vegetables and fl >wers from this
State, and the juicy and rich flavored orange
of Florida will be introduced to many stran
gers. Our hotel men will be forced to open
tneir houses some weeks earlier than is cus
tomary. 'lhetideof visitors to the Atlanta
Fair will nec ssarily bring on strangers early
iu the fall, and mine hosts must be prepared
for their reception. All signs indicate a large
flow of tourists this winter, and the prospects
of a lucrative, gay and lively season are
promising.
The facilities for reaching Florida are far
better than during last winter, both as to time
and comfort. The number of routes lias been
increased, and the conveniences are vastly im
proved. Visitors w-ill find new steamboats,
new railroads, new hotels, and will be able to
penetrate portions of the State heretofore only
reached with difficulty. The St. John’s river
country constitutes only a small portion of the
State, and is not the only section that is worth
seeing. Middle, West and South Florida is full
of attractions and objects of interest.
Among tbe 1-nportant resolutions that were
adopted were the following:
Whereas, It is the sense of this convention
that each county is a constituent part of the
whole State, and is profited by the prosperity
of all other counties; therefore,
Resolved. That each county can but serve
both herself and sister counties by collecting
and placing before the public all the facts
which will invite labor and capital.
Resolved, That county associations for the
collection of data that will furnish truthful
information, is earnestly invited, anil that all
counties who have not formed associations
are earnestly urged to do so.
Resolved, That the State make an exhibition
at Atlanta, to consist of woods, fibres, miner
als manufactured articles by hand or machin
ery, native fertilizers, fruits, vegetables, sta
ples. cereals, natural curiog'ties of land aud
water, etc., and all other things that would
illustrate tbe resources and products of
Florida.
Resolved, To this end the following named
gentlemen be hereby appointed railroad and
shipping agents: Jacksonville, T. T. Stockton
Callahan, W. A. Mahoney, hive Oak, Robert A.
Reid: Pensacola, W. D. Chipleyand Dr. R. H.
Mclllvain at Cedar Kejg. The duty of these
several agents shall be to forward to Colonel
D. H. Elliott, who is hereby constituted Super
intendent of the State's exhibit at Atlanta, all
articles turned over to them respectively.
It is made the duly of the Vice Presidents
of the several counties to appoint committees
to solicit subscriptions of money and articles
for exhibition. There is a very healthy senti
ment throughout the State in favor of making
such an exhibit at Atlanta as shall gratify our
State pride and induce visitors.
The distressing news from Savannah has just
reached us, and Jacksonville extendi her cor
dial 'sympathy to your city in thin hour of
desolation. The most lamentable loss you have
sustained, next to those who perished on that
fearful night, is in the destruction of shade
trees. Houses can be rebuilt and damages
repaired, but it requires years to bring a tree
to maturity.
Here we sustained no injury, and nowhere
along tbe coast have any accidents been re
ported. A year ago the steamer Vera Cruz
and a dozen other vessels went to pieces on
our coast, and the loss of life and property was
sad to contemplate.
Much anxiety was felt here as to the state
of affairs at Savannah, as we were without
telegraph connection for two nights, and only
partial accounts c mid be obtained from pas
sengers. Full details were received in the
News of Monday, which were copied into the
Union and read this morning with deep in
terest.
Richard Fitzgerald, of the steamer Plant,
drowned in Savannah Saturday night, left a
young wife in this city. I learn from hi*
brother that three sons of this family have
met violent deaths, one by murder and two by
drowning*
The full and comprehensive report pub
lished by the Mornino News the morning after
the injury sustained by the office is another
evidence of the energy and enterprise for
which the proprietor of that sterling journal
has always been noted.
The remains of Mr. Richard Fitzgerald ar
rived this morning, and tbe funeral services
were held this afternoon. A large concourse
of friends attended them to the grave.
The new hotel upon the beach at Feroan
dina has been filled to its utmost capacity, and
offers a moat pleasant summer retreat to per
sons from the interior. Why should our peo
ple run elsewhere during the hot season and
neglect home institutions equally as agreeable
and comfortable as those abroad ?
Ex-Qovernor Drew is one of the developers
of Florid a His mills at Ellaville turn out
about 100,0(0 feet of merchantable lumber
daily, and give employment to two hundred
workingmen. Tbe sum paid out at these mills
amounts to SJO,(JLO monthly. W. H. B.
Colonel A. Wood, Merryweathor, whom
everybody in Scranton, Pa., knows, writes
and says; “I had long suffered from a de
rangement of the bladder and kidneys; it
had made my general health poor. I also
was troubled with severe Indigestion; pills
gave me only temporary relief, snd I ex
perienced great anxletv of mind, as well as
physical distress. A friend recommended
Brown’s Iron Bitters. I have used it with
most gratifying results, aud just now my
health never was better, and I fed that the
cure is permanent.” j
The Coal and Iron Hines of Ten
nessee.
The coal and iron mining interests of
Tennessee are booming. They are about
to receive an additional impulse from the
Investment of over a million dollars in
the iron industry by several wealthy citi
zens of Nashville and elsewhere.
A reporter of the Nashville American
interviewed James D. Porter, Esq., and
obtained the following information: That
himself, Vice President Alexander, of
the Louisville and Nashville Railway,
General Superintendent Thomas, of the
Nashville, Chattanooga and Bt. Louis
Railway, and Nat Baxter, President of
the First National Bank of Nashville,
had gone there to make a business in
vestigation in behalf of capitalists who
proposed to spend a million or more of
dollars in blast furnaces along the lice
of the Nashville, Chattanooga and St.
Louis Railway. They found the re
sources of the mines unlimited, and will
make the most favorable recommenda
tions to the capitalists who propose to
make the investments.
The above is the coal and iron proper
ty k cently purchased by Mr. John H.
Inman, of Inman, Swann & Cos. It is
understood Mr. Inmau has realized indi
vidually a cash profit of over $200,000
on this purchase, besides still retaining
a large interest undisposed of, and con
tinuing in the active management.
Vennou’B Weather Theory.—Mr.
Vennor writes to the Philadelphia Times:
“The storms predicted by me for the
latter portion of the week ending Sun
day, August 28tb, for this portion of the
Atlantic coast, have given signs of their
near approach and will probably be
more generally experienced ere this note
is in print. What I wish to call atten
tion to is the fact that this prediction
was formed and published on the 12th
of July last, aud published in the Cana
dian journals of the 15th. It was based
upon tbe storm cjclone period of the
29th of June last in the Western and
Southwestern States, as I had discovered
that disturbances about this latter date
in the past has been almost invariably
followed by similar storm periods along
the Atlantic coast in this neighborhood
in the neighborhood of the 28th, 27th
and 28th days of August. In such rela
tionship is my weather theory based to a
great extent, and a storm now or to
morrow would add greatly to my confi
dence respecting my system of work
ing.”
Theodore Ulke was found dead on the
street in New York Friday morning. A
deep gash was over his right eye and a
smaller one over the left. He lay in a
pool of blood on the pavement. The
manner in which he cone to his death is
as yet an unexplained mystery. Ulke
was a workman in L. G. Tallatsou’s
manufactory of telegraph instruments,
and was a descendant aud one of the few
surviving members of a distinguished
German family of ancient nobility. Dur
ing the war Theodore Ulke enlisted in
the Confederate cause, and when the war
was over he was ruined, and since has
been obliged to live by his mechanical
ingenuity as a skilled workman. He
was about fifty years of age aDd unmar
ried.
