Hawley, President of Philadelphia
Centennial association,made a telling
speech on Wednesday night. It was
well received. In it he alluded to
the battle of Ocean Pound,in Florida,
where Gen. Colquitt commanded the
Confederate troops. He stated that
he was glad to say in his speech that
he cherished no animosity toward
the President of this society, Gen.
Colquitt, for the whipping he gave
him at Ocean Pond.
Growth of Chicago.— lt was the
generally accepted opinion that Chic
ago overdid the matter of rebuilding
after the tire, but the records show a
continued demand for new buildings,
and the work of erecting them goes
on vigorously. Since last October
more than eighteen hundred houses
have been put up, all of brick,stone
or iron—no wooden structure being
permitted—and the amount invested
in this way is fstirnated at between
sixteen and eighteen millions of dol
lars.
Kissing their lady passengers is not
among the prerogatives of Wisconsin j
railroad conductors. The Supreme
Court of the State has just decided
that a railway company must pay
SI,OOO to a young lady whose charms j
are of such a seductive nature that she
threw a conductor into a paroxysmal
state, in which condition lie forcibly
kissed her. r lhe court probably hav
ing in view the Baker case, ruled
that a railway company is bound I
to protect female passengers on its
trains from indecent approach or as
sault.
It seems that the gag law is not
unknown in Ohio. A special from
Labanon, in that State, under date
of the thirteenth, tells the Cincinnati
Enquirer that one Jacob Waters, a
colored brother, saw fit to exercise
his constitutional right and vote the
ticket of liis choice, voting a portion
of the Democratic ticket. For this
grave offense he was met at the s
mouth of a dark alley, as lie was
quietly going home on the night of!
the election, bucked and gaged, and
afterward beat,eowhided and choked
until he was almost dead ; and had
not some white citizens appeared
upon the scene,would doubtless have
been killed by his negro assailants.
T liis, says the Enquirer' 1 s corres
pondent, is the means resorted to by
these newly-fledged voters to keep
their men in the ranks of the Repub
lican party.

by the Mayor to address the represen
tatives of the rising generation, res
ponded as follows:
I am pleased to stand beneath the
shadow ol this building, which is so
well calculated to prepare you for
useful occupations and honorable sta
tions in life. His Honor, the Mayor,
has said that lam in favor of free
speech, and therefore 1 want other

After this bright effort, two Pull
man cars were stored with willow
baskets, and the Presidential party
warbled along on its bright, sunny
way to the Rocky Mountains, going

President had an interview with
Brigham Young, who said the Pres

satisfied. Satisfied with what? That

SOUTH FLORIDA.
THIRD letter
Editors Standard & Express:
—Mr. Ford’s place,Rosewood, isjust
nine miles east from Cedar Keys. At
this place I found it necessary to re
main a day or two, awaiting the
steamer “Emily,” to carry me to
Tampa. There is not much in Cedar
Keys to write about; it is,as its name
indicates, an Island, and is the one
next to the mainland. It contains
about six hundred inhabitants, sup
ports a newspaper and does a large
business along the coast, indeed there
are more goods in Cedar Keys than
in Cartersville. It has two hotels and
the poorest in the United,States with
out exception. A good one would
do a first rate business. There is
nothing beautiful about the place,
except the little mourning doves,
which are indeed exquisite little crea
tures. Half a mile southward is
AtesnieOnee, upon which is located
Faber’s Cedar mill and one or two saw
mills, and about as many people as
upon Cedar Key. The merchants of
Cedar Key seemed to be busy, and
goods I think are fully as low as at
Cartersville, except, perhaps, flour.
The people spend their idle moments
catching young sharks. Exports are
fruit from western coast,sponge, tur
tle,fish and oysters. Saturday even
ing I embarked, with Mr. X.,a young
gentleman from Xew York, engaged
in the same pursuit as myself, viz.
looking for a home. He had spent
a large part of last winter in explor
ing Florida, both the cast and west
coast, and was then on his way to
the Alafia river to locate. We agreed
to bear each other company, and if
every thingsuited to locate near each
other.
Our trip on the Gulf was pleasant
and entirely devoid of incident
—at 9 o’clock Sunday morning, we
sighted the light house on Egmont
Key, and by ten, had passed the bar
of Espiritu Santu sound, with a
depth of water about fourteen feet,
This sound is what the natives call
Tampa bay ; its two large arms at
the northern end being called respect
ively Hillsboro and old Tampa bay.
Our point of touching was Manatee
village,on the river of the same name,
which empties into the lower end of
Tampa bay, and divides that from
the entrance to Sarasota bay,in other
words the mouth of that river is be
tween these two bays. The Manatee
has a bar of its own and carries about
seven feet water at low tide. Its
width from its mouth to the village
some six or eight miles, will proba
bly average a mile, but with a com
paratively narrow channel. I noticed
that the wharfs had to be built out
into the stream from 200 to 400 yards.
The banks on the south side were
high, perhaps as much as fifteen feet
from the water, and were very nice
ly improved,there being a settlement
about every quarter of a mile. The
country continued high, I was told,
for a quarter of a mile back from the
river, then it became low, and final
ly a mile distant, degenerated into
swamps. The north bank was low,
and not much improved. There is
no village proper, but a line of build
ings stretched along the south bank,
one or two stores, post office, a half
built abandoned hotel,a deserted saw
mill, constituted the town. Above
the town were some large sugar plan
tations before the war. This land is
hammock,not high above the water,
(high enough in price) and no fencing
timber and unquestionably not heal
thy all the year round. It did not
suit me, nor did the eligible situa
tions any better, as they were too
limited in area ever to warrant any
considerable increase in population.
1 wanted, if I went into the woods,
to have land enough around me to
have plenty of neighbors when they
got ready to come,and with some ca
pacity of development. The people
were planting orange trees, and some
were successful. 1 infer that Mana
tee as well as Sarasota bay, will nev
er take rank as places of business,but
may rise into some importance some
day as winter resorts. I was much dis
appointed in Manatee, and so will be
any person of good judgment I mink,
who listen to statements of those in
terested in selling places there. They
ask high prices and sometimes sell.
Owing to inability to get wood for
her furnaces, and having therefore to
use coal, our steamer could not get
up steam euough to make her usual
time.
This was (as we were blessed with
fine weather) no disadvantage to me,
as it afforded more time to examine
and enjoy the beautiful marine scene
ry on Tampa bay. Surely the sun
never shone on a more beautiful
body of water than this. It is not
more than forty feet deep,and as shal
low seas are,it is quite green in appear
ance, and with the purple and gold
of the sky, especially the sun-set sky,
it makes a picture surpassing any
thing I have ever (in a considerable
traveling experience) seen with my
own eyes,or on canvass. But like
many beautiful things, it is as treach
erous as it is lovely. At certain spa
sons squalls (thunderstorms on land)
are of daily occurrence. Many lives
are lost every year in navigating it
in small boats. But custom inures
to danger. Nothing but the Quar
antine will keep a cracker off it, no
matter what the season.

ON STANLEY ON!
Seven hundred and twenty miles
from the coast to the shore of Victo
ria Lake, and this most remarkable
journey accomplished in one hundred
and three days, is an achivement
which places Mr. Stanley’s name be
side that of Livingstone and Speke
and Baker as a leader, a discoverer,
and an indomitable traveler. And
the record of that journey, as told in
the Herald , reads like a romance,
nay, rather like those marvels of
which every now and then startle the
world,suspassing tne wildest concep
tions of ficiton. Scarcely had the
sound of Livinstone’s last footfall
died away in the labyrinthian wilds
of Africa than this young American,
Stanley,with a determination,pluck,
and courage unsurpassed by a Cook,
a Ledyard, a Magellan, or a Frank
lin, throws himself into that vast un
explored region, determined that the
African Sphynx shall disclose her se
cret.
How his story sounds! Xew lands
and strange peoples; fighting and
famine; disease,desertion and death;
hunger and thirst; —all these result
ing in the loss of one hundred and
twenty-six lives, of whom twenty
one fell in three days’ battle with the
barbarians ; these are some of the re
sults of Mr. Stanley’s expedetion,
which at the date of his letter was
exploring the vast inland sea, the
Victoria N’yanza, Mr. Stanley thus
demonstrating the truth of Speke’s
discovery of that sea as the true
course of the Nile; and in this Mr.
Stanly has cleared the reputation of
as brave a man as ever dared the
dangers of the African jungle.
It developed upon a gallant, cour
ageous American to rescue Living
stone from miserable death, and it
fitly devolves upon the same cour
ageous American, Mr. Stanly,to con
tinue the great explorer Speke’s work
from the unjust aspersion of envy.
All honor to Stanly, and all honor to
Mr. Bennett, to whose liberality
and enterprise we owe it that Ethio
pia keeps not back the hidden secrets
of her jungles and her wilderness. —

A Wealthy Louisiana Planter Dies in a St.
Louis Calaboose.
R. C. Ilynson, a wealthy planter
of Alexandria, Rapides parish, La.,
was found dead in the Central police
calaboose, St. Louis, Tuesday morn
ing. The police claim that the man
was picked up drunk at the Union
depot. A large sum of money and
papers showing who he was,’ were
on his person when arrested. His
friends and relatives, who are among
the leading merchants of the city,
positively assert that he was strictly
temperate. He was 81 years of age,
of splendid physique externally, aim
it is claimed that he had never heed
under the influence of liquor in his
life. He was on a visit to his daugh
ters,one of whom,Mrs. l)r. Voncourt,
he was on his way to see in a subur
ban town when he was taken sick.
An investigation showed that he died
of heart disease. The lack of dis
crimination between a drunken man
and a dying - man causes consider
able indignation and comment,which
is not allayed by the affidavits and
the repeated assertions of the police
that the old gentleman was certainly
and r u n k. —Exch an ye.
We knew Col. Ilynson well, in
our boyhood days, and remember
him as one of the solid men of Alex
andria. If we recollect aright he was
in some way connected with a bank
ing institution there, as early as 1835.
We believe the story of his being
drunk is false. Certainly, in his
younger days he was one of the stead
iest and soberest men we ever knew.
BRIGHAM YOUNG AND ANN ELIZA.
Salt Lake, Utah, Oct. 18.—Some
months ago Judge McKean made an
order requiring Brigham Young to
pay Ann Eiiza Young SSOO per month,
from the commencement of the suit,
as alimony, and the Atorneys’ fees of
$3,000 in the suit for divorce. At the
time of issuing the order,the amount
of alimony due was $9,500. The or
der not being complied with, Brig
ham Young was brought before Mc-
Kean and imprisoned one day in the
penitentiary for contempt in not pay
ing the attorneys’ fees. These were
fixed. Soon afterjudge McKean was
removed and Judge Lowe appointed,
who was asked to punish Brigham
Young for contempt in not paying
the $9,500 alimony, liis decision
was that the order was illegal and
invalid. The case has rested there
until to-day, when on application,
Judge Barran issued an order which
lias been served on Brigham Young,
commanding him to appear on Sat
urday, 23d. to show cause why he
should not be punished for contempt
for disregard the first order.
The Ohio defeat don’tseem to have
caused any great distress in the neigh
borhood of New York. The Brokyln
Eagle (Democratic) wishes the ma
jority of five thousand had been one
hundred thousand. “We wish the
Republicans had stamped out the
heresey, and that the heels of square
Democrats had been only auxiliary,
not an indispensable, force to crush
the hydra.” But great good has
been done; the retirement of the
blatherskites opens the way to the
union of what is the best in both par
ties, and “puts the Democracy in
superb form for 1876.” The Brook
lyn Argus (Independent) says this
in the turning point in Governor
Tilden’s career, and if he will keep
his eyes open and show his sincerity
by continued good works “be can
fill his sails with the Ohio breeze and
drift directly toward the White
House.”

Our gin is entirely disconnected with the warehouse, which will be a guarantee against fire,
etc. We will deliver cotton at the depot free of charge.
Having had long experience in running machinery and ginning cotton, we feel safe in saying
that we will give satisfaction.
\\ e aro still prepared to furnish parties with Flooring, Ceiling, Doors, Sash, Blinds, Frames,
Mouldings, etc., of the very best material, and to take contracts for buildings of every descrip
tion at the lowest price.
Thankful for the patronage we have had, we respectfuly ask a liberal share in the future.
