tt-j AuFoou’ Say.—Tfca day—last
T«e«d»y—passed off very quietly, most
people forgetting it. The only case of
“fooling” reported is, that the mischiev
ous school boys muffled Mr. Feather-
stone's bell, so that when be went to
ring it, it wouldn’t sound “wof a cent”
If we i been tbnf worthy gentleman
we'd have took “hide” enough off those
naughty hoys to have furnished Hiatt’s
shoe shop for the next ten years.
School boys will be school boys, and
we were one ourselves not many years
ago.
Another Hop.—Through the cour
tesy of our friend, Mr. Ben Davis, we
were invited to attend the “hop” which
took place at Harmonie Verein Hall on
Monday night last. The scene was one
of the liveliest we have beheld in a long
time.
Among the ladies present we noticed
several from Tallahassee, who are on a
short visit to oar city. The dance lasted
until four o’clock in the morning. The
participants all agree that it was one of
the happiest times of their lives.

that there is a more popular, or more

Music Class.—We refer elsewhere,
in these columns, to the advertisement
of that most estimable lady, Mrs. Ella
S. Hines, who wishes a few music schol
ars, either on the Piano or Guitar. In
our humble judgement this is the best
opportunity for those wishing to learn
this almost indispensable accomplish
ment, that has ever presented itself to
our community. Mrs. Hines is undoubt
edly the finest musician in town, if not
in the section.
Soiree at the Shooting Gal
lery.—That the shooting gallery is a
Success nobody questions—that the
amusement it affords is innocent, no one
will deny. It is now suggested by the
young men of the city that a soiree be
given at the Gallery and the ladies in
vited to attend, who can witness, or par
ticipate, in the amusement. We know
of several ladies in town who are not
only good shots with Cnpid’s darts, but
who will ring the bell as often as the
best shots among the males with pistol
or rifle. We hope it will not be long
ere Mr. Smart announces that he
ready to open his Shooting Gallery to
the ladies.
Splinters.—Paddy O’Farrell used

French army. •
We feturn our sincere thanks to Mr
Spates for that six eggs he allowed us

The above reminds us that we are
the possessor of one whole shirt, one
half pair of inner-breeches, one pair
pants, one pair shoes, and half a box of
paper collars, which, with the aid of the
coming huckleberry crop, we expect to
run The Democrat on the cash plan
now and forever.

TnE Blackberry Crop.—We have
not felt sufficient interest in the success
of this wonderful crop of “pervisions”
to examine into the probabilities regard
ing it. The last issue of the Sun, how
ever, a journal presided over with that
distinguished ability and far-seeing sa
gacity so eminently characteristic of its
illustrious and world-renowned editor,
Corp. J. Randolph Haize, reveals the
fact that the Corp. has been speculating
on his chances for a vegetarian diet this
summer. After an elaborate interview
with that prince df blackberry planters,
Col. Williamdomineer, the immortal J
Randolph announces that the crop “will
be a complete failure.”

following companies compose the losers:
Amazon, -Etna, Fmnklin, Georgia Home,
Southern Mutual, and London, Liverpool &

total loss. Fleishman 4 Co’s loss is heavy,
and the balance light, the damage being simp

there, at the same time, put upon trial
for the same offense, and held to answer
at the next term of the Superior Court
for the crime. The Court fixed hia bail

A Bengal Tiger Loose in Columbia
County.
The Constitutionalist, of Sunday,
says:
We stated, some days since, that
a countryman on a visit to the city,
told one of our citizens that he had
seen a genuine Bengal tiger in the
woods, in Columbia county, about
twenty miles from Augusta. We
gave it as our opinion at that time
that the countryman had imb bed
too.much.benzine, and was a victim
to a delusion. Since then, however,
we have heard that the wild beast
has been seen "by other parties. On
one occasion, a cotv was found torn
in pieces near the place where the
supposed‘tiger had been seen. Yes-
tefddy, we It re told that several
men living some distance above the
city had caught a glympse of the ti
ger, at a point only about ten miles
from Augusta, and it is supposed
that it is making its way to this
place, where it has probably been
before in some traveling menagerie.
A negro man from the 3ame vicinity
also stated that his son, a boy of
about twelve years of age, was
chased on Friday by a ferocious-
looking animal, the like of which he
had never before seen and that he
had a very narrow escape. All ot
these accounts gite very nearly the
same description of the beast, hence
we are forced to believe that it is in
reality a veritable tiger that has es
caped from a menagerie. A force
will, we understand, be organized in
a day or two to bunt for the animal,
as its remaining at large may cause
much trouble and perhaps Joss of
life.
Ten Thousand Dollars for a Dinner.
One of the Greatest pieces of ex
tra vaganca on record in this country
is described by a New York corres
pondent of the Boston Transcript.
It occurred in the shape of a private
dinner at Delmonr o's. A wealthy
German importer, who has retired
from business, and who is about to
sail for Europe, decided before le*v-
ing America to invite his friends to
dinner. Covers were ordered for
seventy-four guests, and carte blanche
was given to Deknonico for the din
ner. The large banquet hall of Aha t
establishment was secured—the same
hall where the dinners to Dickens
and Tyndall were given—at the rate
of $15 a ticket. For nearly a week
the employees of Delmonieo were
engaged in prep -ring for this dinner.
A table twenty-four feet wide, ex
tending t!>e whole length of the rocm,
was constructed.
In the center of it an artificial
pond was made, with a fountain,
while around the fountains live swans
were floating. Of course the pond
was caged over. The center of the
table was banked with flowers, from
the wate"rs edge, at a cost of over
$3,000. Perfume fountains were
constructed in various parts of’the
table, and to add to the intoxication
of the senses. Berstein’s full band
of thirty-five pieces was engaged to
furnish the music. The dinner com
menced at eight p. m. ami continued
a couple of hours, alter which danc
ing took place until midnight, when
the dinner, or supper, as it was
called, was resumed for an hour or
’two, followed by dancing until four
o’clock in the morning. The bill for
dinner amoun ed to just $10,000.

A Florida Orange Orove.
A correspondent of the New York
Sun who has been down on Indian river
in Florida, gives the following descrip
tion of Duuimitt’s orange gruve on that
river;
Dummitt's grove has produced 600,-
000 oranges this season. He says he
will raise a millions next year. ’Ihree
or four years ago the trees were nearly
destroyed by insects, but they have ful
ly recovered and look finer than ever.
This grove is celebrated throughout the
State. It is looked upon as a kind of
Mecca by the orange producers of Flor
ida. It costs Capt. Dumiuitt not quite
SI,000 a year to keep his magnificent
grove in older. Six hundred thousand
oranges at two cents a piece on the trees
would give him a nett ihcoine of $11,-
000 a year, and one million oranges
would give him a net income of $19,000.
But a first-class grove, fully developed,
out to average 3000 oranges to the tree.
Many trees yield 5000, and one tree in
the old Eaton grove, near Enterprise, is
said to have produced 10,000 oranges
in one year. Dummitt’s grove, in -the
hands of a shrewd Yankee possessed of
Dummitt’s experience, would turn in an
income of $50,000 to $70,000 a year,
provided the oranges could be sold at
the present price.
Frost has been seen at Dummitt’s, but
it is very rare and never was known to
injure the guavas, let alone the oranges.
The reason is that the grove is situated
upon a stretch of land between two
bodies of salt »water. The water of
Mosquito Lagoon and Indian River is
much more salt than the water of the
ocean. This is owing to the action of
the sun and the shallowness of the wa
ter.

G. H WILLIAMSON, Gallatin, Tcnn.
The Connecticut pigs are really be
coming alarming. One specimen was
born in Bethany, last week, with two
sets of legs and four ears. Two of the
four fore-legs grow out of the back of
the head, and cannot, therefore, be very
useful for pedestrian purposes to the
possessor, though they might serve well
enoug as horns. The richly formed
creature has two sets of teeth, and his
mouth is also provided with a double
roof. But loveliness like this, of course,
soon faded. The precious cherub but
just glanced at the world, just under
stood that he was a native of Connecti
cut. and would certainly be made a shbw
of if he lived. He preferred death—
he died; and who can blame him ?
