2 FLORIDA’S CAUCUS VOTE. PJERKY TAKKS THE LEAD ON THE SECOND BAIiS OF. tloihain Ahead Two VutM on the First Bel lot— Both Sides Confident of final Success—Another Caucus to 15e field To-Morrow—Talk of a Dark Horse Al ready Heard. Tallahassee. Fla., April 12.—in the Senate to-day the bill requiring railroads to fence their lines was discussed with considerable feeling, as it imposes upon railroads absolute liability without proof ef negligence unless the traok is inclosed In sufficient fence. Senator McMurray’s resolution ot sym pathy with the Irish people passed both bouses under a suspension of the rules, and is the first measure presented to the Governor for his approval. The rules were suspended and a memo rial asking Congress to enact a law to prevent fraudulent use of the mails for swindling innocent persons was passed. In the House a resolution passed ap pointing a committee to inquire into the fconflagratlon at St. Augustine and solicit Bid lor the sufferers if neoessary. The Bpeaker appointed Messrs. Ewans of ■Washington, Farnell, Hind and Gainer •s the committee. By resolution the question of having a Btateexhibit at the London exposition was referred to the Committee on Appro priations. FINLEY A DARK HORSE. The line is being closely drawn between the respective friends of Perry and Blox ham in the Senatorial race. There are, however, some members who earnestly desire the introduotion. at the eleventh hour, of a third man, who will profit by the determined division of the majority of the members Detween the leading as pirants, who are now considered to have about an equal obance for success. It is fully expected that eith'-r B!nx ham or Perry will be the next Senator, but it will not be surprising if a desper ate effort is made to quiet the now hotly contesting fad ions by taking up anew man, and Gen. Finley, the recent ap pointee by the Governor, is spoken of as a Mark horse. SOME OF THE NEW MEASURES. Some very radical measures have been already proposed in the Legislature, and among them may be mentioned the bill allowing common law actions to bo brought against married women for claims against them not exoeeuiug $600; also a bill introduced in the House by a colored member from Leon requiring anarried women to join their husbands iu making chattel mortgages. Each house is progressing satisfacto illy with its work, but there will be no legislation or consequence accomplished until the vexed question oi electing a United States Senator is disposed of. The caucus soon to meet will settle the matter. A JOINT CAUCUS.

McArthur’s Luck of .lodgment at a Critical Tim Allows the Carolinians Two Itlliim end Caiupau’s Muff of a Fly Gives 7 hem tlie Game—New Flayers in the Field—The Closing Game To- Day, McArthur’s lack of headwork lost Sa vannah yesterday’s game with Charles ton. Up to the seventh inning tne visitors had tailed to score a single run. Tbe home club bad sent two men across the plate. It was the latter half of the sev enth inning. The visitors wore at tbe bat. Two men had been put out. There was a man on third and another at second, when Smith went to the bat and sent a grounder to McArthur. It would have been an easy put out at first which. of course, was tbe play to make, since there were two men already out and tho runner could not possibly score, but instead, McArthur threw borne. Wil liams, who was on third, was within ten feet of the home plate when the ball retched the catcher’s bands. Carl, who followed him, led off from second, and was nearly down to third. Bmitb, who had thrown down bis hat and was about to start for the players’ Dench, thinking he was surely out, was by this time safe at first and started to go to second. McAr thur's play took Parker unawares. Wil liams started back to third and Carl to second. It was a chase be tween oases. Half way between home and third Parker threw the ball to cut the runner off. It was a wild throw aud both Williams and Carl scored. Smith followed on Campau’s mull' of a fly to left field by Corcoron, giving the visitors the lead by one run. In the next intiing Hines scored on an error of Me Adams making four runs in all. Savannah failed to score after the fourth inning. It was an evenly played game up to the “fatal seventh.” Nulther side made any particularly striking plays. The visitors were credited with nine hits, four of which were bases on balls. Savannah was given five hits off Smith. Parker, who caught for Savannah, did very effective work. He is rather weak at the hat and did not throw as well to second as Dallas, but with practice may make a valuable player. He is here on trial. He played last year with Oswego iu the International League and was a short, time with Augusta and Charleston. Overstreet, who played right field In place of Hutohinson,is from St. Louis and is also playing on trial. Hutchinson played short and Reilly third base.

Alateriai nature wore an auspicious smile, and the appreciative people of our town and community came oul in such numbers that, the little sanctuary was filled to overflowing.

The altar was covered witb a prolusion of magnificent blooms, above which upon the desk there rested a cross and anchor of pure white roses. The chandeliers were graceiullv encircled in luxuriant vines and flowers still Iresh with the morning dew, while the old historic font, at which it is said John Wesley stood and baptized, was filled with flow.ers ot the rarest beauty. The Easter services were conducted by the pastor. Rev. G. \Y. E. Fisse, of Savan nah. The choir, under the direction of Prof. Jones, rendered some beautiful music. AUGYLE ANNALS. Cattle and Fruit Interests Promising A Shooting Affray. Argylk. Fla., April 12.—From re ports gathered from all sections of this county ( Walton ) the cattle interest is in first class condition this spring. The late frosts did but little damage to fruit, and the present prospect is for a good fruit year. Make Curry and Julius Carter, two negroes employed in Anslev & Mc- Caskill’s turpentine farm, indulged in a small shooting affray here Sunday. Carter was struck in his right side, the ball ranging around, lodging in his back, making a painful and ugly but not dangerous wound. Curry, it is said, was shot in the neck, but left as soon as the shooting ceased. The trouble grew out of a game of cards. Weather Indications.
