The announcement made recently that Ur. F. B. Papy, tbe General Superinten dent of tbe Jaokaonville, Pensaoola and Uobila Bailroad, would pass intended settlers coming into tbe State by way of Chattahoochee free over bis road, was not strictly eorreot. Ur. Papy'a offer was to paaa all immigrants intending to settle on the line of the road, anywhere be tween Chattahoochee and Jacksonville. Personal. Ur. J.

Some of tbe young men of the oity have organixed themaelvea into a brass band. Ur. William Pond ia tbe leader. All of them have fine talent for mmia, end the band ia anre to be a first-class one. Mr. Pond la a fine mosloian, and in the oapao- ity of leader or teacher he ia highly qual ified. Ere long the oity oan pride herself on a well trainod band of mnaioiana. Thera ia another brass band which de serves praise, and that ia the one com posed of the Girard boy,, lead by Mr. Daniel McKenzie. We oftentimes bear their mnaio at evening, and they oontin- ne to improve. Some of the oolored boys in the oity formed e band some time ago. They abonld go ahead and "blow” with a vim, and not allow the others to anrpaaa them- TUB B. B. K. It. '8 KXOVKBIOir. The meaning of the initial heading ia perhaps as mysterious as tbe pyramids of Egypt; yet it was printed on the excur sion tickets np the North and South road last night.

WHO IB TUB POBT-LOVBBt On a reoent visit to tbe Warm Springs, while lazily wandering 'neath its roman tic shades I pioked np the following poem. It ia addressed to N. B., the fairest flower of the Land of Flowers. Of oonrse I hastened to disolose this good fortune to my friends, elated as I was and wonderful to relate they were ignor ant of its author. In one voice they ex claimed that if the oreator of tuck beauti ful ideas refused to give biB mono to tbe public, he was an Orr-ful man. The only clue I have aa to the author is that in reading ono of onr city papers, one or two items over the letter “J." Tbo poem has the same mysterious author: When heavenly angel, are guarding tho good, A, God ha, ordained them to do, In answer to prayer, 1 have offered to Him, I know there la ono watehlcg you.

The “gladiator" ia the name of the moat fashionable round hat.’ —Ab! gentlemen, if you'd be wise, Lay in your stock and advertise. —Lioen collars are higher and turned back farther from the front than former ly- —Tbe aoog of tbe katy-did and tba voice of tbe loonat are now beard in tbe land. —Great contest after two months of married life—which shall be speaker of Ibe house. -Well did Jean Faul write that littleat ohildren are nearest to God, jost as tbe smallest plants are nearest the Sun. -One loafer aaid to another on the street, the other d»y, “Say, Cap", what ia a vagrant?"

Second Blaok Hussar—“I dost.” And they both dusted. --Nothing so lights up the gloom of oountry party, upon which a glum silence haa settled, aa tba inquiry of a young man, who haa not spoken a word daring the evening, of an equally taciturn young lady; “Joaepine, where is your brother's bile—on hia neck or arm?” Pity poor Joe. B»i Bttalc Purebate. Dr. J. U. Mason, the dentist, whose office ia in the Enquibeb-Bun building, yesterday purebaaed tbe residence Ur. Edgar Gray, in tbe upper and eastern portion of the oity, for $1,200. As this indicates,^the Doctor ia permanently located in onr eity, we are glad of it. He ia a superior dent ist and a gentleman of whom a city oan be prond. Open-Air Meeting. Bev. J. B.

Wbnt a Picture! Fort Worth mnat have a onrious sort of womaokind if there be any truth iD the following from the Daily Democrat of the 4th. We have not got any suob hair-pins in these parts. Have yon notioed that ‘oute’ way wbioh a fashionable young lady bas of grabbing the tail end of ber dress, in promenading? If you haven't already done so, jnst ootioe tbe modus operandi. It is indeed a fanny and ridionlons sight to see lovely women atop at a street-crossing, give ber body a fearful twist, atoop low, and reach baokward and downward nearly to her beela, and grab from five to forty pounds of trail, fnll of dirt and dust, shake it five or six times, like a bazzard fixing bis wings to fly, then hobbleaoross the street like a lame tnrkey to tbe other side, there to ‘let go,' tnruaroand four or five times, and Btart off like a stern-wheel in a storm.” KEELY’8 NEW MACHINE.

Youth truly, Presidium ei Dulce Decut, BASE BALL AT TROY, ALABAMA The game of base ball between tbe Bloods of Troy and Seminole* of Union Springs, played at Troy yesterday, result ed in favor of tbe Bloods, by a soore of 41 to 11). Many yoang ladies and gentle< men from tbe surrounding oonntry wit nesaed tho game which was very exoiting. After tbe game a ball was presented Captain Boland (Jake), by the Captain of the Seminoles in a very neat speech. Captain Roland responded in a very brilliant effort and said although tho Sem- inoles were defoated yet he intended them go off winner by giviug them an opportn" nity of capturing some of the Troy belles that night at a grand ball given iu honor of the Seminoles.

He has already made a number of barrels of very fine wine from different varieties of the grape, and will begin iu a very few days with the souppernong. He is a Frenchman, not long from hia native country, where the finest wines are made, and of course he understands his business. The juioe that he puts up will make uny gourmet siuaok his lips.

A large number were present, and the ocoasion was an enjoya ble one. Why she wouldn’t : A young lady was at a party during wbioh quarrels between husband and wife were discussed. “I think,.” said an unmarried older son, “that the proper thing is for the husband to have it out at onoe, and thus avoid quarrels for the future. I would light a cigar in the oarringe after the wedding breakfast, and settle tbe smoking question forever.” “I would knook the cigar out of your mouth,” interrupted the belle. “Do you know I don’t think you mould be therehe remarked.—English paper. Tbe American People. No people in the world suffer as muoh with Dyspepsia as Americans. Although years of experienoe in medicine bad fail ed to accomplish a certain and sure rem edy for this disease and its effects, such as Sour Stomach, Heart-burn, Water Brash, Siok Headache, Costiveuess, Pal pitation of the Heart, 1 iver Complaint, coming up of the food, low spirits, gen eral debility, etc., yet siuoe the intro duction of Green’s August Flower boliove there is no oase of Dyspepsia that oannot be immediately relieved. 80,000 dozen sold last year without one ouse of failure reported.

From the Philadelphia Times.] The Directors of the Keely Motor Com. )any met the other evening to witneen leely a experiments with a new maobine, which weighs more than twenty tone. It has coat *60,000, having been two years in prooeaa of erection, and was twioe re constructed with other metal because the first two choicea of the inventor proved not strong enough to reetrein tbe energy of his vapor. The machine is made of wrought iron and oaat ateel. It consists of spheres, basins, standing tabes, ana small reservoirs, with a wilderness of connecting rods, valves and tiny oopper tubes. A globe of oast steal, four feet in diameter on the outside, holda only twelve gallons. The centre oavity ia in e shell of nine inches thickness. The perpen dicular tubes that reaoh from floor to cell ing, at tbe other end of the machine,have a central chamber of three inobee diame ter, the surrounding metal being three iDohes thiok, and outside of it, ona above the other, ere hnge rings of wrought iron shrunk upon the pipe. The oopper tabes appear lo he one-fourth andone-balf inch in diameter, bnt the aperture in their oen- tre ia not large enough fo admit a pin head. The maobine ia now oomplete. Ur. Keely is giving exhibitions of its foroe, registering pressure to the square inoh, and ia testing its strength before he be applies the power to targe enginea. First, he began to register preasnre upon the gauge, which will register a pressure of 11,500 pounds to the square iuoh. He made nine teats, and with five-twentieths suspension of tha water oolnmn and ten pounds of air he prodnoed 11,000 pounds pressure to the inob, and had to ahnt off the preaBnre because the gauge would not stand more. The oondensing apparatus into wbioh the vapor ia discharged ia a cylinder that holda three gallons of water, and strongly bolted and barred, that it looks aa if made for the disoharge of a twenty-inch projectile. Its design ia to reduce the vapor, the force of whiab has just been used, to water, for use over and over agaiD in tbe working of the maobine. The Times' representative had an oppor tunity to breathe the mysterious vapor while tha wonderfnl preasnre was upon the tnbes. It wee discharged into hia hands, his eyes and hia month. It was perfectly oold and dry. Within a month, when he has made all bis experiments with bis now oompleted maobine, Mr. Keely will endeavor to show the extent of its power. In hia conclud ing talk with tbe Times representative, Mr. Keely said: “This is a new enbatance; a new foroe altogether unknown to sci ence. I don’t pretend to be tbe inventor; I discovered it by accident. I oonld work this machine up to ten thousand horse power if the metal would bold. I shall certainly work it upon a two hundred horse-power engine soon. The little ma- ohine yon saw in tbe office np stairs (it ia only nine feet long, two feet wide, and three feet high in its highest part), ia the most powerful maohine every oonstrnoted. It was built for us by Mr. Willard, of Bordentown, who was drowned a few days ago. It was a quart machine, that ia to SAy, it used only a quart of water. With the oundensur that I have now nearly oomplete, I will make that quart of water produoe a thousand horse-power motion of sufficient duration to ton a steamship across the ooean.” Many Wbo are lafferlai From the effects of the warm weather and are debilitated, are advised by pbysioiana to take moderate amounts of whiskey two or three times daring tbe day. In a little while those wbo adopt thiaadvioefrequent- ly increase the number of “drinks, and in time become confirmed inebriates. A beverage which will not oreate thirst for intoxioating liquors, and which ia intend ed especially for the benefit of debilitated persona, whether at borne or abroad, is Dr. Sehenok’a Sea Weed Tonio. Contain ing the jnioea of many medicinal herbs, this preparation does not oreate an appe tite for the intoxioating onp. The nour ishing and life supporting properties of many valuable natural productions con tained in it and well known to medioal men have a moat strengthening inflnence. A single bottle of the Tonic will demon strate its valuable qualities. For debility arising from sickness, over exertion or from any oanse whatever, a wineglaaafnl of Sea Weed Tonio taken after meela will atrenghthen tbe atomeoh end oreate an ap petite for wholesome food. To ell who ere ebont leaving their homes, we desire to say that the exoellent effeots of Dr. Sohenck’a reasonable remedies, Sea Weed Tonio and Uandrake Pills,are particularly evident when taken by those who are in juriously affected by a change of water and diet. No person should leave home without taking a supply of these safe guards along. For sale by all Druggists aug2 eodlm Worked to Death.

In the New York Tombs there is a ter rible example of the use of opium. Henry L. Sanford is now tweutv-eight years old, and began to take morphine about seven years ugo, bcoause whiskey did not sat isfy. “That,” said be to a reporter of the World, “had a splendid effect on me, made me lively and ambitions, and gave me an amount of happiness I oannot ex pieaa to yon. It transformed me at onoe. I beoame strong and independent. Noth' ing was too hard for me to undertake, speculated and made lota of money. At the end of two years my sufferings began." He went to a lunatio aaylnm, but oonld not be cured. He soon went np to forty- five grains a day, and began taking it by injeotioD, for it had oeased to have any effect if taken through the month. He bad used a bypodermio syringe, but losing this got a common syringe, whioh he oonld not insert in tbe flesh without first catling a bole. He UBed to take a razor and cut a gash in his thigh and then with a t'oissors bore a hole in tbe flesh, into which he would insert the syrfhge and in- ject (he morpbine. Daring the last two years he has taken over sixty grains a day and bas often taken over a draohm, which is equal to five hundred grains of opium, He is in jail for stealing medioal inatrn meats, which he disposed of to purchase tbe poisonous drug, and be describes hia suffringB thus: “If I wasn't so less I'd soon be oat of this hell in. I have no fear of tha next world. There ia nothing in this for me. For over two years I have been dead. There ia no blood in me. I oan eat nothing, and that whioh would keep life in me I oannot get. Even when asleep " have no rest. Iam constantly dreaming of being thrown in among a lot of deac aud beiDg oompelled to eat their flesh, know when I wake np, covered aa I am with oold perapiration, that it ia bnt dream, but the effect of it makes my de sire for morphine a torture. I would kill my own father in a minute if I oonld get enough for one dose. When the deBire comes on me I would not exchange tbe morphine for Heaven. Give me the dose and hang me if yon like. I don't oare what they do with me after I have got the morphine. ” Imagination oan hardly pic ture a more awfnl condition of body and mind than this. help ill l'u MARKET REPORTS.
