TO OUR COUNTRY FRIENDS.
As much interest i»felt throughout the country in
regard to the prospects of the cotton and other crops
we will bo'grateful to our planting friends and others
in the interior for information on that subject. Those
who have opportunities for obtaining valuable infor
mation in regard to the growing crops, the working
of the free-labor system, ancf kindred matters, of gen
eral interest, will confer a favor by communicating
the same to ns. •
THE MAYOR’S REPORT.
We publish this morning, to the exclusion
of our general variety, the annual Report of
his Honor, Mayor Anderson, accompanied
by the city. Treasurer’s Report, exhibiting
the financial condition of the city. This able
report, which will V>e read with interest by
all classss ot our citizens, besides giving a
clear and comprehensive view of municipal
aflaris, contains some important and valuable
recommendations and suggestions, which,
we desire to urge upon the favorable con
sideration of the people of Savannah, but for
want of space, we defer our remarks on the
subjects for the present.
We may, we think, congratulate our citi
zens, not only on the favorable condition of
the city finances, and the manner in which
the city credit, at home and abroad, has been
sustained at a period of great political and
monetary embarrassment, but also on the
advancement that has been made in repair
ing the wreck aud disorder incident .to the
disastrous conflict through which we have
just passed.
Our progress during the past year gives
the gratifying assurance that, with a continu
ance of good municipal government, energy
and enterprise on the part of our citizens,
we shall not only recover the losses of the _
past, but soon attain a position of commer
cial importance and prosperity which tv ill
entitle its more than ever to the appellation
of the Queen City of the South.
GEN. UIX ACCEPTS THE MISSION
TO FRANCE.
It is authoritatively slated that Gen. Jno.
A. Dix has accepted the mission to’ France.
The reason why the position was not ten
dered to him before his acceptance of the
appointment as Naval Officer of New York,
was because the request Of Mr. Bigelow, to
be recalled, had not reached the Govern-
’■ment. It is to be regretted that a statesman
of the ability and influence of Gen. Dix
should be removed from the political arena
at home, just at this juncture. It is said
that the key to his appointment is to he
found in the recent advices from Europe,
relative to the Mexican question, the solution
ot which has been obstructed by the fact
that Mr. Bigelow has become too etrougly
committed to the French side of the Mexi
can imbroglio to fit him as a representative
of the United States at Paris. Hence his.re
tirement and the appointment of Geu. Dix
in his stead, who is prepared to take much
bolder ground on the matter of .the French
occupation of Mexico.
STATE TAXES.
We learn from the Milledgeville Recorder
that the amount of property returned by the
State of Georgia,{is about '$307,000,000, three
counties yet to hear from. The amount re
turned in 18G0, was $623,322,777—lo3S to the
State of qver §465,000,000.
The tax of 186C, will be one-sixth of one per
flWHjofflplrofle/i? Report, wiiicii we are as
sured will be very interesting and instructive.
[For the News and Herald.]
Steamer Sylvan Shore, j
St. John’s River, Florida, J
September 30, 1366. )
Messrs Editors : Reaching, as the United States do,
from the verge of the tropics almost to the confines of
the frigid North, our people have become quite us mi
gratory aa the feathered tribe. The dequea of the
South likes to pass the hfeafed term among tb4 green
hills of New England, making the tour of the North
ern lakes, or ranging over the vast prairies of Minneso
ta, even to the far off Red river of the North.
To escape from the rude, chilling blasts of winter,
he returns to his own sunny clime, followed by thous
ands, io pursuit ofjiealth or pleasure. Where, it may
be asked, on the whole earth can be found such a
A and as this ? When Ponce de Leon, the'adventurous
Governor of Porto Rico, named it the “Land of F|ow-
ers,” he but hall re-called its attractioast a climate
beyond the boast of Italy or Egypt, soft breezes
from the bosom of the ocean giving health and elastici
ty to the spirits; ever recurring.scenes of beauty and
wonder to charm and interest the mind. Such is
Florida, and from October to June-it is the resort of
tourists from two hemispheres,
One can leave Savannah by tha Sylvan Shore, and
in thirty hours, by the inland route, passing Fernan-
dina and Jacksonville, arrive at Pilatka, one hundred
miles from the mouth of the St. John’s river. From
Pilatka’ steamers of lighter draught ascend £t.
’ John's to Lake Idnuroe, one hundred aj£l iwentfefivo
miles, or the 5cklawaha about the s&mb distance to
Silver Springs, in Marion county. If Niagara awes
the soul with its overwhelming grandeur. Silver
Springs, by the irresie table power of beauty, charms
every sense. Imagine an oval basin three hundred
and fifty feet in diameter, forty feet deep, from which
a river insuns sixty feet wide and twenty feet deep,
whose waters are as transparent as ether/ Seen at
noou-day, beneath a clear sky, the decomposed raj s
of light guild every object in this fountain with rain
bow hues. The fiah sporting in the water, minut*)
shells on the bottom of the pool, and the delicate moss
like algoe waving in the current, are as distinctly seen
forty feet belo w the surface as if suspended In mid air.
Florida, however, is peflsas rafigrtahlcfor^prings
than flowers. On the banks of Lake George'fS another
silver spring of the same diapharous quality* Then
there are sulphur springs, salt springs and ihtelmif-
teut springs, some of them remarkable for the heal
ing virtue of their waters.
It is very common to hear oue say such a place suf
fered terribly during the war, but Fernandina seems
to have been reserved tor belligerent exhibitions in
time of peace. The Direct Tax Act, a most stringent
war measure, was enforced ti^ere, and many of the

ta&tcyredeemed their property from the sale, jfaid the

sale had 1* once in bis life got into a house as owner,
and there he intended to stick. When proceediims
were instituted in the civil tribunals to eject him, the
occupant being a Radical, and, as is well knpW9,?ct-
tog h»4«u*A widjAadxfrmae BHIflafc In (ioiMrere,
procured an order from the head of the army to pro
tect him in his unlawful possession. Thus matters
stood, until quite recently pur indefatigable Senior,
W. Call, had the unjust order revoked, and the Courts
of the State are independent of bayonets, f
The next Legislature, to meet In November, will elect
a UnitAd State*3<*i*tor to sBccepd Hof. i#AAfu-vin

opposition to nKii-lkqttiS^ 1
It'is aunouuoed*iu.a New York paper that
several leading RaAieais ia the Essex,' Mas
sachusetts, Coingressiqinhl District have noYni-
nated William R. FMflips to oppose Butler
for Congress, and he has accepted the nomi
nation. The opposition to -the hero of Ber
muda Hundreds, it is said, will be active and
formidable. We see it stated, also, that since
the adjournment of ihe Radical Soldier’s
Convention at Pittsburg, of which Butler was
the master spirit, that much dissatisfaction
•has been expressed by soldiers from all parts
of the North.at some of the principle^ #fi.4
sentiments put forth by General Butler in
his address before that Convention. The
Western correspondent of a New York paper
says that his declaration to the Convention
that more may be required of the Southern
States, in the event of their adoption of the
constitutional amendment, before they shall
be admitted to Congress, is generally regard
ed with great disfavor, as threatening to leave
the country still in agitation, and the States
unrepresented, even though the constitu
tional amendment should prevail. The bet
ter part of the soldiers also utterly repudiate
his demand for the hanging of General Lee
as well as Jefferson Davis. The large ma
jority of the soldiers distinctly disclaim that
such are the sentiments of the party to which
they intend to give their ballots.
It is a remarkable as well as suggestive
fact, that Butler has, by some unaccountable
means, acquired a controlling influence in
the counsels of the Radical party. It is
equally apparent, too, that hia popularity is
immense with the masses, as shown by tire
invitation to run for Congress in a district of
his own State where he does not really re
side, and this though there is an express law
of the State to the contrary, forbidding any
one to aspire to so important u position un
less within the district of his residence.
How is this anomalous incident to be ac
counted for? it i& certainly not on account
of his military fame, for unfortunately, ac
cording to the judgment of General Grant,
as expressed in his report of the late war, the
Generul was singularly unlueky in his mili
tary career, and signally failed to achieve dis
tinction in this line. It has been said that
it is because of the remarkable mediocrity of
talent in the party to which he belongs.
This tuay be one, but we imagine not the
chief reason. We rather suspect his popu
larity may be traced to the abuse heaped
upon him by the Southern press, which has
excited the sympathies of his Radical friends,
who have been thus inclined to place him in
a position where he can inflict vengeunco
upon the ‘‘defiant rebels” for their audacity.
Whatever the causo. General Butler is evi
dently on the high road to public favor, aud
is quite certain of attaining the honor of a
seat in Congress.
List or Radical Panama Itf th* Sooth.—The ful.
lowiug papers, published In the Southern Stales, sus
tain the policy of Congress:
Iu Memphis, the Post; In Nashville, the Press A
Times aud the Colored Tennesseean; in Near Orleans,
the Tribune; in Augusta, the Loyal Georgian; in
Charleston, the South Carolina Leader; in Savannah,
the Republican; in Mobile, the Nationalist; in Rich

In this list It will be seen that the State of Georgia
furnishee two—the Loyal Georgian aud the Savannah
Republican. This latter paper we are surprised to
find classed with the Radicals, as we see by looking
over the columns that it la liberally patronized by the
old merchants aud citizens of Savannah. The South
Carolina Leader. Loyal Georgian, Mobile Nationalist,
New Orleans Tribune, Richmond New Nation, and

THE J. B CAItY & CO.’S
‘ NONPAREIL FRENCH GUANO”
W HICH 14 now offered to Planters possesses quali
ties which are peculiar to it alone, and sender it
far superior to a^y other known, as has been fully
proven by the “ French Academy of Sciences,- ami
also by practical persons of enlarged experience iu
every department of Agriculture.
Among the meritorious qualities which peculiarly
distinguish the “ Nonpareil French Guano,” may be
enumerated the following:
1st. It *111 promote the growth of Cotton, Corn, To
bacco, or any kind of grain or vegetable, equal to A
No. 1 Peruvian or Mexican (Tu&ao, aa Has bean fully
tested, at the aarne time being entirely fret from the
objectionable properties of the above, as it is a Perma
nent Improver of the Soil, instead of a stimulant.
2d. It can be applied to tbe leaves as well as the
roots of plants, without any danger of burning them,
if used properly, and we guarantee that wherever am
plied tbe soil will retain its moisture, and will not
bake, even the most clajfey.
3d. It will prevent Worms or Insects from destroy
ing either plant or grain, and wherever it is applied
every kind of worm or insects will instantly disap
pear, its properties being repugnant-to insect life of
every kind. This quality alone will be a great benefit
to agriculture when it is estimated what vast numbers
$ »» Southern planters know, have lost their crop by in-’
sect depredations. '
In a circular it is impossible to fnlly enter into the
merits of the •> Nonpareil Frentb Guano,” bnt we as
sure the public tlpt we have not exaggerated, and it
only remains for those interested to test its value
when we feel confident that it will rapidly supercede
all others. *
