Your correspondent, in his recent perigri natiena. went down the Florida. Railway and Navigation road again from Jacksonville to Cedar Kevs, stopping over first at Starke, in Bradford county. Here he was most hospitably entertained at the Kentucky House, anew brick structure, with the genial J. R. Martin as proprietor, whose establish ment is deservedly popular and located quite near the depot. Since our hist visit one year ago the town lias continued steadily to improve, and ilesnit® short crops of cotton and cold snaps the people are in good spirits and quite hope ful of tiie future. * THE ORANGE TREES have almost wholly recovered from the ef fects of last year's "memorable freezes, and have put on a strong and vigorous growth. From all sides we learn that they are more heavily laden with fruit the present season than in any previous year, which it seems is in no wise injured by the recent frosts. We noticed that while at Live Oak the Irish po tatoes, corn and beans bad been cut down this was not the case hero, though the latter Were looking pale and delicate. Several new stores have been opened, among them that of B. H. Jones and Cos. hikl T. VV. Sweat, dealers in general mer chandise. the family grocery of J. H. Bar ron and the hardware and stoves concern of J. \V. Cardell. With the latter is associated an old Savannah boy, G. VS'. Sanders, who was delighted at the' opportunity of getting the Morning News regularly once more. Indeed, our greeting from alt the merchants was most cordial, and their appreciation of vour journal is in no degree diminished. Starke has just cause to be proud of her EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS. President Geo. O. Looney,than whom there is not a more accomplished and thorough educator in the South, is still at the head of the “Starke Institute,” and has numbered as many as 150 pupils on his catalogue during the past collegiat e year. Mrs. C. t). Crawley, formerly of the Middle Georgia College, has charge of the female department,. This lady, so well and favorably known in educational circles throughout the State of Georgia, is a great acquisition to the seminary. This little city boasts still another regu larly incorporated institution known as ORANGE COLLEGE, which is owned and controlled by the Presi dent, George P. Young, Esq., under a char ter granted by the Legislature in 1882. The average attendance, Mr. Young says, is about 125 scholars. The languages and all the higher branches are taught and diplomas awarded to those who graduate. President Young has had twenty years experience in teaching, and is never without competent and able assistants. He also ow ns a large building in the vicinity where pupils from abroad are lodged and boarded in his own family. Starke has two immediate and pressing wants. One is a bank, to facilitate com mercial operations, and the other a mam moth hotel for the accommodation of strangers and invalids, who would gladly come here to breathe her soft and healing atmosphere. Such au establishment would the best possible feeder for all the other boarding-houses. Our next halting place was Waldo, where we spent only a single night, stopping with -Ji's. Amelia Legare. who keeps the Waldo House. She is a lauy of elegant, manners and nearly related to several of the oldest families in Carolina. Even the most cap tious guest could not fail to be pleased with the entertainment received at, her hands. Here, ton, the orange outlook is exceedingly promising. A MAGNIFICENT TREE. Mr. D. Hicks showed the writer an or ange tree in his yard which has four trunks and it is estimated will yield forty-five boxes "t fruit the present year, or near 10,000 or anges It is twenty-five years old and measures at the base before the trunks di vide two feet in diameter. Dr. W. J. Jolly, a leading physician, also has a fine grove, Planted in between with Peento peaches in bearing. fishing to some purpose. On the evening of our arrival Mr. E; D. Renault, and two others came in, bring ing with them 178 black bass, running • lorn two to eight pounds each in weight, were caught in Lakes Alto and Santa ON TO CEDAR KEYS. t a Ido the writer proceeded direct to Cedar Keys, arriving about nightfall and ./■curing comfortable accommodations at Hettehm s Hotel.

Cottrell, | was n!so ejected to the Legislature from I.a layette comity, but has since died. The Cottrell family have been prominent *in Florida fornuuiy yearr. Thefatherof these young men, Col. James Cottrell, served sev erai terms in the State Senate and died a member of that body at an advanced age. He* was greatly respected. R. M. Dozier, the popular railroad agent, has served in that capacity for nineteen I years, twelve of which have been spent at Cedar Keys in the office of the Florida Rail way apd Navigation Company. Heisevery inch a gentleman and faithful official. Rev. \Y. N. Wilson, the beloved rector of the Episcopal church, is not only a devoted pastor and fine sennonizer, but born a me chanic. He has filled his study and dwell ing with ornamental articles and choice specimens of furniture which would do credit to a professional expert. Rev. T. E. Smith, formerly from Carters ville, Ga., but late of Tallahassee, is the Presbyterian pastor. The Methodists and Presbyterians at present occupy the same building on different Sabbaths and wor ship together. The best of feeling exists be tween the two denominations. A PLEASANT FISHING EXCURSION. The writer was indebted to Inspector Cot trell and Mr. Dozier for a delight ful sail on the Gulf in the pretty yacht of the former. We had ns companions also Mr. Thomas P. Thomson,of Abbeville, S. C., and the bright little sou of Mr. Dozier, who bore away the palm as a fisherman. Leaving old Cedar Keys to the left,upon which the Faber mill is located,and still several hundred inhabitants remain, we threaded our way with a light breeze through the various islets and keys which ilot the coast, the immense “leg of mutton” sail of our craft catching every breath of air. When creeping along the brisk steam tug of the Faber Company hove in view and Mr. Lewis Morris, the polite general agent of that concern who was in charge, kindly took us in tow down to SNAKE KEY, some ten miles distant, where several hours wero passed most enjoyably in catching fish or shooting cranes and other water fowl on the adjacent shore. The salt air was keen and invigorating and time flew on eagle wings until forced to return, which we did with a stiff breeze and in gallant style. Of the finny tril>e we captured 100 in round numbers. THE PROJECTED RAILROAD. Cedar Keys is greatly stirred at present with the prospect of anew railroad from that point to Branford, on the Savannah river, and its ultimate extension to Macon, Ga. It is asserted that the portion to Bran ford is to be built by an English company of ample means within ninety days, and 1.000 hands are to be put to work shortly. The route is through a very fine lumber region, with much valuable agricultural lands also on the line and in easy reach of it. The parties say they can deliver the steel rnilsHt Cedar Keys for #5 less per ton than they have ever been placed in America. A line of steam ships is in contemplation to run be tween Cedar Keys, Cuba and Central Amer ica. Our informant says there is no reason to doubt the above statements. Such an en terprise, if completed, would indeed give a lasting impetus to the old town. The pro gramme is to make the distance to Savan nah and New York in eight and fifty-eight hours respectively. The proposition seems to meet with general belief, though the names of the contracting parties for the present are withheld. Nothing seems to be impossible in Florida. EASTWARD BOUND. From Cedar Keys we swiftly retraced our way to your city, pausing for a brief season only at Bronson and Archer, both of which places have been fully descrilied in a former article. In Bronson we bad the pleasure of meeting Hon. AV r . J. Jones, a most genial gentleman, who has represented his county two terms in the State Senate and two in the lower House. We formed the acquaint ance too of Mayor Mnrsteller and Dr. W. R. Sage, a graduate of the University of Ken tucky at Louisville, and practicing physi cian. Dr. Jackson, Editor Burke and the veteran Col. W. R. Coulter, member-elect to the 1 legislature, all continue to be readers of the News. Bronson can Ixiast of one merchant, Mr. J. Epperson, who handles nearly 400 bales of sea island cotton annually and sells SIOO,OOO worth of goods. He also owns the only hotel in the place. ARCHER is blessed with one of the best and most homelike hoarding-houses in Florida. It is known as the Good Wood House, and is kept by the worthy Mayor, Hon. W. A. U .iii. Here everything is serv ed not only with neatness but elegance, and the viands and eooking are exquisity. In this place we experienced a warm greeting again from our old friends the Bankifights. Judge McDouell, Mr. Jackson, Mr. W. A. Geiger, Mr. Fleming and others. A protracted meeting was going on, conducted by the Met!enlist and Presbyterian pastors with promise of good results. The gardens and truck patches nil through this region, which is one of the best in Florida, and around Gainesville also have been for the most part cut down by the cold, and the people seem much disheartened. Money is very scarce, too, but there is still ample time to raise plentiful erops of corn, sen island cotton and imtatoes, and those will go far toward retrieving the situ ation. Let everyone do his duty and hope for the best. H. H. J. A Railway Train Stopped by Fish. From the Chicago Herald. “Did you ever hear of a train being stopped by fish!'’ inquired an employe of the Michi gan Central, addressing,! reporter. “I dare say yon never did. M ell, wo had an experi ence of that kind on our road last Sunday. Our east-bourn' passenger train was actually stopped and detained more than two hours by fish. The engineer pulled up at the water tank in Michigan City to get the usual supply of water for the 1 toiler. But when the fireman pulled the rope, no water came out, though the gauge showed that the tank was half full. An examination showed that the pipe was stwmied up by fish— hundreds of them, from little wee minnows up to pretty good-sized pereh. Nor was it such ail easy matter to clear the ori fice so that the water could flow out. Tho stock of water was low in tin* tender, and the engineer did not dare to run on to another tank, so there was nothing for it but to clear the fish a way. A number of {tasaengers went out to help the trainmen at the novel work, and after an hour's lalsir tqo little pests were seonjied up and removed in sufficient quantities to lit, water pass, though a good many fish went, with tho cur rent, into tlie water tank on the tender. At, last the engineer pulled out and all bawls siqqiosed that the trouble was at, nil end. Butnotso. The fish iu the tewler tank got into the feed pities connerled with the boiler, and upon starting his pump the engineer found that it wouldn’t work. The t rain was st,>p|s*( 1 mill ngain the pussengers ciqnn out to .km* what the matter was, and some of them swore a good deal when they learned that the train hail I“••■u stopped ngnin by fish At one time the enghirer thought lie would lie compelled to draw tho lire from his locomotive awl wait until another en gine could reach the scents. The train lay another hour at Buchanan ntutlon. and tin* conductor wh* about to telegraph I’m* a locomotive when tin* engineer anuotuxwd that he had min noted in starting the pump.
