NEW YORK. IM7. The different editions of Tin*: Sun during tlie next year will be the same as during the year that has just passed. The daily edition will on week days be a sheet of four pages, and on .Sundays a sheet of eight pages, or a(> broad columns; while the weekly edition will be a sheet of eight pages of the same dimensions and character that are already familiar to our friends. The Nun will continue to be the strenuous advocate of reform aud retrenchment, and of the substitution of statesmanship, wis dom, and integrity for hollow pretence, im becility, and fraud in the administration of public affairs. It will contend for the gov ernment of the people l>y the people and for the people, as opposed to government by ; frauds in tin- ballot-box and in the counting of votes, enforced by military violence. It will endeavor to supply its readers a body now not far from u million of souls with the most careful, complete and trustworthy accounts of current events, and will employ for this purpose a numeions and carefully selected staff of reporters and correspond ents. Its reports from Washington, espe cially, will Ve full, accurate and fearless, i and it will doubtless continue to deserve ; and enjoy the hatred of those who thrive by ; plundering the Treasury or by usurping ; what the Law does not give them, while it will endeavor to merit the confidence of the I public by defending the rights of the people against the encroachments of unjustified power. The price of the daily Sun will he 5o cents a mouth or $(. •">() a year, post paid, or with the .Sunday edition $7.70 a year. The Sunday edition alone, eight pages, $1.20 a year, post paid. The Weekly Sun, eight pages of 56broad columns, will be furnished during 1877 at the rate of $1 a year, post paid. The benefit of this large reduction from the previous rate for the Weekly can be enjoyed by individual subscribers without the necessity of making up clubs. At the same time, if any of our friends choose to aid in extending our circulation, we shall be grateful to them, and every such person who sends us ten or more subscribers from one place will be entitled to one copy of the paper for himself without charge. At one dollar a year, postage, paid, the expenses oi paper and printing are barely repaid; and, considering the size of the sheet and the quality of its contents, we are confident the people will consider The Weekly Nun the j cheapest newspaper published in the world, and we trust also one of the very best.

FLORIDA ITEMS. Baso ball comes slowly to the front in Quincy. A largo firo occurred in Pensacola recently. Loss $12,000. Northern visitors are leaving for their homes from all parts of the State. The Florida Medical Association held its fourth annual meeting in Jacksonville on last Tuesday. Vacant building lots are held at e normous figures in Mouticello. That will not subserve the public interest, however. The people are so anxious for a railroad in South Florida, that at Leesburg meetings are held nearly every day. The Tax Collectors are doing a live lv business in some counties of Flor ida. Leon county has paid $21,000 to her collector. Marion county, one of the best Long Cotton counties in the State owes SO,OOO to different corporations and individuals. The Governor has seized the Flor ida Railroad, extending between Lake City and Jacksonville, and advertises it for sale on the first Monday in Ju ly. Messrs. Barnes & Levcrett, young men, formerly of this place, had their sign taken down and carried off one night last week. Encouraging ain’t it? The Right Rev. John Moore, of Charleston, Bishop elect of the dio cese of St. Augustine (Catholic), will be consecrated on the 13th of May. Since Drew has been inaugurated the Clerks of the Court, whose duty it is to issue marriage licenses, are reaping a rich harvest, even at a dollar a li cense. What do you think of $1,50 per peck for green peas. A lot was sold in Baltimore the other day, at those figures, shipped from the Land of Flowers. Incendiarism has of Into boon so frequent a thing in Leon county, that the Governor Inis offered a reward of §SOO for the arrest and conviction of the devils. It. Iv. Patterson, the horse thief who was captured by our efficient Sheriff, John Thrasher, in Colquitt county recently, broke jail in Monti cello one day last week. The Metropolitan Hotel at Jack sonville is now used for a post office, it having been closed for the season. The lire in Requa’s block caused the removal of the Post office. One hundred and five indictments were found on the docket in the Unit ed States Court which recently held its sessions in Pensacola, for violation of the Internal Revenue Laws. Mr. Samuel Linton, of Jefferson, has had a sore bereavement to over take him. His little daughter, aged three years, got so severely burned a few days ago as to cause death. Jacob Burkhim, formerly of Madi son, and then of Tallahassee, and la ter, resident of Jacksonville, has been appointed Collector of Customs at Cedar Keys, through Senator Cono ver. The Young People of Lake City went to work with a vim recently and placed the Cemetery of that place in a very neat condition. A thoughtful and appreciative act, which others would do well to emulate. The road leading to the eastward in the direction of the old Mouticello factory is said to be in a wretched condition. Also the Bellamy bridge is in a very bad condition. Roads and bridges are kept in first class or iu Brooks. A negro at Leesburg likes Confed erate money when he Ims no “green bakks.” He Ims been passing some of that exploded currency upon some of his colored brethren, and is now in jail for the offense. Is not a spe cies of ‘black’ mail ? Gen. Tyler, Jr., of Florida, is writ ing letters in behalf of tlio revival of the old Whig party. To spit the Democratic party in the South, John’s efforts will he futile. He will have his labor for his pains. Ho ought to have remembered his father’s history a little better. Poor John, neither priest, nor puppy, nor red herring, nor Postmaster at Jacksonville or, — Baltimore! John is tho devil’s own we fear - . [Written for the Quitman Reporter. A SAILOR’S EXPERIENCE [Continued from Last UV/. .] The captain, fully appreciative of the crew’s exertion, ordered the stew ard to serve out grog and not to be sparing of it. It was pure, being distilled on the owner’s estates for the especial use of the shipping. 1 mention this because what might bo considered an over-dose, and which might be attended with unpleasant consequences from impure liquor, was taken on this occasion and produced, as was desired, an exhilirating effect, which greatly assisted in the arduous duties which had yet to follow. Each man swallowed tho contents of a filled tumbler, and I, who drew my allowance every day, though I never drank it, which was known to the steward and captain, unhesita tingly called for my share. The steward handed me a small quantity, which I refused. Ho asked if 1 in tended to drink it myself, to which 1 replied, certainly. He said, “there is enough there,” holding up the tum bler, “to make you drunk.” I told him not to daily, but fill the glass aud hand it to me. The captain was standing above our heads near the poop-rail, aud could hear every word that passed. The steward looked up to catch his : gaze, but his head was averted, aud, though the friend of my father aud my guardian at sea, he took no notice of our dialogue nor of my seemingly irrational demand. He finally hand ed me the tumbler filled, saying, “If it kills you I shall uot consider myself responsible for tho act.” I drained j the contents with as much zest as | though it were milk, and handed the | glass to the steward, who had turned pale at my temerity, imagining it proceeded from bravado aud I would certainly not drink it all. ! “M3’ God,” says he, “in half an j hour you’ll be as drunk as a fid- dler’s .” I laughed, shook my bead, went about my duties nor ever felt the 1 slightest inconvenience from my spir ituous draft, for which I never had an inclination after save in moderate i doses and on particular occasions ! Both the captain’s and steward’s at tention were frequently turned to ward’s me, as though watching its effects—the latter expecting to see me tossed from the dizzy height where [ duty called me into the vast seething ■ pot that was heaving below. The excitement I was under at the time no doubt killed the effects of the 1 liquor, which at any other time would undoubtedly have killed me. The captain accused me a few days after of being afraid. I asked in what [ manner I had demonstrated it. He j alluded to the liquor. I inquired if that was all. He thought that was quite sufficient. I argued the point ; and endeavored to convince him that j excitement might exist without fear, and which, though in a rather un pleasant manner, I proved to my eti j tire satisfaction a few years since, i when a friend, who was slightly . inebriated, misconstrued something that I bad said and taking it as an insult, drew liis revolver, cocked it, ! and placed the muzzle within a foot j of my head, swearing that ho would do me the especial favor to blow out my brains. I smiled, told him to put up his pistol and not act tbo fool. A bystander knocked up his hand, and the hall passed harmlessly through ; : the ceiling. I was excited hut I was ! not afraid, and told him that he had shown himself a greater fool than 1 took him to he; if he would only lis ten to reason I could convince him , of his folly, and ho would repent of that which ho had attempted to do. 1 An explanation ensued, it was as I predicted, and from that day he be came my fastest and sincerest friend; and I believe that there is now hut one living witness beside ourselves who is cognizant of the transaction. I will now return from this exciting digression to the storm, which con tinued with relentless fury, apparent ly increasing in force each time we rose to the summit of the lofty wave, which gently eased ns to the calm beneath, there to meet with another’s threatening front, hut which again raised us as it harmlessly passed, ex posing us a target to the enraged and mocking wind. Thus the day passed, and for three days we were exposed to these dread surroundings, all hands being engaged in repairing damages the vestiges of which had now dis appeared. During this time the sun was shrouded from our sight by the thick veil which was spread betwixt sky and sea, and from whence pro ceeded the dread strife we had wit nessed, and which, foiled in its mad efforts to destroy, gradually moder ated its force, when on the morning of the fourth day the sun rose in un wonted splendor, as if in derision of tlm wild scene which was yet being enacted beneath his reaplendant rays, the waters sparkling with brilliant hues from his reflected brightness, | and which tho rough winds scattered with profusion o’er its billowy snr j face. And the wild sea birds, which ! usually soared aloft or graeefuliy skimmed the heaving bosom of the deep blue sea, invisible during the storm, again gyrated in the buoyant air, and in sportive evolutions mani fested their joy at tho gradual decline of elemental strife. The ship, too, no (longer the weather-bound object of j tho storm, was gracefully bounding ; under double-reefed topsails to the j breeze, which for several days con tinued with unabated force, and pro hibited a further increase to her snowy i wings. But wind and waves, like objects of animated creation, tiro from over ! exertion and seem to seek repose for I tho renovating of their exhausted ! powers, and from this cause we were tit length permitted to crowd all sail ; and pursue our way’ on the pathless I waste, rejoicing in the prospect of a speedy return to those dear ones and those friends which the elements from man’s carelessness had nearly de prived us of ever seeing again. The memorable words of the cap tain immediately after we were hove to, are still impressed upon ruy mem ory, and which were: “Men, you may all of you down upon your knees and thank Providence for your safety; it was a narrow escape. Had you called me twenty minutes sooner I would | have saved you all the trouble you have gone and still have to go through.” AYhen informed of the mate’s conduct his censure knew no bounds, and that officer was dis -1 charged immediately on our arrival in port. Tho “Pin Back” Press Nowhere. ; Olive Logan’s London Correspondent San Franc isco Chronicle. I allude to the “eelskiu” dress, now the great rage botli in London and in Paris. In the wildest days of the tie-back or pin-back mania there nev er was seen such a tightness in the matter of skirts as now prevails. Whether the paucity of folds in the pin-back in its frouter part, in the i enormous exuberance of the pannier or bustle the balance was struck. But now not only is the bustle a (thing of horror, hut even the necessa ry uuderclothing is considered de trop. To lengthen the waist far be yond its natural proportions, a stiff webbing of elastic is fastened to the stays to the depth of half a foot, and to this, at first narrow skirts were buttoned. But even this is abandoned for another scheme to i abandon slenderness. Mrs. Swiss tielm’s much ridiculed chemiloon is in demand, and garments made in this way are sold at the furnishing shops, and patterns of it pass eagerly from hand to hand among lady friends. Some ladies have regular stage \tights made in thick webbing, aud over these they wear nothing the outer dress, underskirts being simulated by plaited ruffles of white muslin sown to the edge of the dress, which is then tied back till the woman within is shackled almost like a con vict in a chain gang. No more un comfortable fashion ever was devised, for not only are the limbs confided by the binding dress but the wearer must constantly concern herself about condition of the bodice, that portion being in increased danger of turning itself up behind, wrong side out like an umbrella in a wind storm. The desired effect of youthful slenderness is generally obtained by the “eelskin,” but at a good deal of sacrifice of pub lic ease. A New York paper tells of a man in that city who was traveling in Kansas recently, and received the fol-’ lowing telegram: “Return immedi ately. You are a father.” On the eve of his return his lady friends deter mined to play a joke on him procured from the neighborhood three other babies, placed all four in a row on a bed in a adjoining apartment, and covered them up, S. arrived embraced his wife in great delight, and was then led forth to behold his first-born. When the cover was raised, an inde scribable look of surprise spread his countenance as ho exclaimed, “Great God ! Did any of them get away ?” The Norwegin Storthing has crea-1 ted and endowed a special Professor ship in the National University, to which the great zoologist, Prof. Sars, has been called, with an annual sal ary equivalent to five thousand dol lars in this country. “What’s useo play poker:” remark- j ed an almoned-eyed denizen of Tuc son, Nevada, tho other day. “Me hold four klings and a lace; Meliean i j man hold all same time four laces : 1 and a kling; whole week washee gone i likee woodbine.” The supreme court has decided that the centennial appropriations made by congress reverts to the United States. The court is evidently trying to redeem itself from the disgrace of the 8 to 7 business. Olt> Uncle Cnshiug has had a fare well audience with tho king of Spaiu. We don’t know whether to congrat ulate the king or not, and therefore we await further developments. Negotiations are in progress, says the Sun, for a tract of land in Decatur county, Ga., on which to settle a col ony of French immigrants from Gor mandized Alsace. sriOAMMLOO WORTH OF DRY GOODS, CLOTHING, iARB WARE, ROOTS, SHOES, &c„ To be sold immediately to make room for more goods.
