Bbe writer, in his recent hurried jaunt Bn! north to south through the peninsula ■ Florida, could only attempt the very B,fest resume of the condition of that in- Bi'Cjng region at the close of the traveling B*m and an abnormally severe winter. Ky inuing his previous sketches, let us first B- our respects to the beautiful town of Bala situated in the midst of a rich and Bturesque hummock with its wealth of Bdure and magnificent forest growth, the Bposing structures of brick and pretty Bidenees peering forth through their set- Bgof green on every side, cannot fail to Barm the eye of the visitor. Asa business Btiv. too. it stands in the front rank of the Berior towns of Florida. Large areas of B k country teeming with fertility and B -kiv settled by capitalists, contribute Bir quotas of oranges, strawberries and Bretables to swell the revenues of the little Bv ' It mm not tie known to many that Bocala is to be found the MOST PROGRESSIVE MERCHANT B; opulent dealer within the confines of the. Bite Net even Jacksonville can produce Bipeer The name of this gent leman, E. B Agiiew. Esq., is a household word in Borida The numerous departments of his Spacious store-house are utterly inadequate Bcontain the vast volume of merchandise B'essary to supply the wants of liis cus- Bnei's. "and extensive warehouses at the Bih'oad depot am crammed to repletion with Bl'le goods, which it requires whole trains ■ deliver and are oftentimes sold by the Bdload without “breaking bulk.” The Bn>' indiviilual also is at the head of the FIRST NATIONAL BANK, Bitch is in a most flourishing condition. BE sinstitution, with a capital of $50,000, Bbcit, established but a single year, has ■sO.OOO on deposit, and is a power for good B the mercantile community. H \nether bank admirably manged, and nn- Berous additional stores heavily stocked attractive wares, also attest the thrift Bd importance of the town. Neither time Br space will permit us to particularize at Besent. and indeed the business houses of Br place were elaborately set forth in a Brrner letter. In passing, the writer Bnuld mention, however, that the large 8 11 and factory of Yonge Bros, is still kept Bisy, ami Ocala can boast of the only seed iu Florida, that of Mr. ,J. B. Sutton, Bve one. In a region where vegetables, Buds and farm products are the Bief sources of revenue, and ■ire and practicable acclimated Beds and plants are of vital im- Brtance, this deficiency should not exist, B*e Southern Seed Company, of Macon, B- does much to supply the demand. ■ The influx of visitors tho past season has Ben less than usual, and the principal hotel, B ll ' Ocala House, barely paid expenses. This Has due to the fact that a -rival establish ment at Silver Springs, near by, absorbed Be lion’s share of the tourists, many of Bhom would go there and leave without Biding Ocala at all. It would be to the Hiterest of the town to purchase and control ■us property. The writer stopped at the ALLRED HOUSE, ■hieb is located very near one of the rail ■nad debits and is kept open the year round, ■he proprietor, Dr. C. J. Allred, is very Hopiuar with the traveling public, and his Hotel is generously patronized. He can ac commodate over fifty guests. The new rail- Hoad to the gulf has "been completed to Blue ■Springs, and the writer would acknowledge Bn invitation from the polite officials to join Hn excursion party to that attractive resort. Hluch is expected from the opening up of Bhis additional highway to “deep water.” ■he shipments of vegetables are daily in creasing at remunerative prices. Tiie pros- Hect for the next orange crop, however, is Bar from promising. Many growers are Blmost destitute of fruit, and nowhere will Bhe yield amount to an average. LEESBURG, Hhieh, with its sixty miles of lake naviga- Bion and progressive merchants and farmers, Bs deservedly one of the most attractive ■oiiits in Florida, continues to improve sub stantially. The vivid green of orange ■povas and the glittering sheen of the broad Bak- s which bound the horizon ou either side ■impart an almost tropical aspect to the ■town. Since our last visit several new ■places of business have been opened, among ■them the grocery store of J. F. McClendon, ■under the management of D. M. Hopson. ■ Jonii H. Inglis now runs the Elliott restaur ■am and bakery, ami various other merchan ■tw changes have taken place! On tho ■ j'tme, matters look cheerful and the ■ tanners are raising large crops of vogeta ■ n,es, which command good prices. Here, I too, wo learn from Mayor Lee, the owner of I f u .? !Cto,ls ‘ vo grove, that not more than a I?■ 9 r ”P. Ol 'onges will be produced in I *“ IS vicinity the present, year. THE METHODIST FEMALE COLLEGE. The entire community is enthused over ,to prospects of the flourishing seminary 'aich is located here under tho auspices of the Methodist State Conference. Two build , 5 s have iieen finished, and a third is soon obe erected. The institution has made a nattering opening, with seventy-five stu dents, and 100 boarders have been promised ??_• Hollingsworth, the President, who is w\ supported by four competent teachers, ms spirited little city contributed no less tc * l4 -9°° 10 t4lc ‘ enterprise, ic W ! l ! iter was 'he guest of Messrs.

Among the new firms is that of Terry A: Sewell, large deal ers in general merchandise. Mr. Terry is a native of Savannah, while his partner hails from Alabama. Mr. E. Bishop, formerly of the Eustis Bank, has opened a banking house here and brings with liim the strongest recommenda tions. Already the institution is a success and great convenience to the community. Dr. Stringer, who is engager! in the drug business, is the oldest physician in the place, haying been engaged in the practice of medicine for twenty years. The drug store of E. R. McGuire is also anew enter prise. W. S. Hancock is one of tho live men of the town, being the proprietor of three business establishments and full of energy. His new brick livery and feed stables are among the latest improvements. J. A. Washington, master builder, was the archi tect of the Hernando Hotel and many other stores and private residences, and is kept constantly busy. He will soon complete two additional stores, to be occupied imme diately. Messrs. Benway, Wilson & Cos., real estate agents, report building lots and farms in demand and advancing in value. Recently they measured a gigantic live oak growing in the vicinity, which was 13 1-2 feet in diameter. The famous Annutaliga hummock contains 80,000 acres, 00 per cent, of which is arable land. A VETERAN ORANGE GROWER. Col. T. S. Coogler, whose five-acre orange grove has been so widely advertised, told the writer that the seeds were originally deposited in checks and when t hey came up were merely thinned out, without trans planting, hence their rapid and vigorous growth. The Colonel also affirms that two full crops of oranges in succession are very exhausting to the trees, and a third, which is rarely known, sometimes almost results in their ruin. We saw clusters of the Japun plum raised by this gentleman from the seed which were simply delicious. This is a very hardy fruit, sustaining no damage whatever from the cold of the past two winters. THE HERNANDO HOTEL, the clever proprietor of which estab lishment is Mr. L. Y. Jenness, still maintains its prestige as one of the leading hotels in Florida. The wonder is, how a place of the size of Brooksville can support such a hotel in tho face of active and meritorious competition. But the fact is patent to every visitor, and those who come once are certain to return again. So much for Brooksville, which is destined to be one of the great agricultural centres of Florida. We close our missive with a brief mention of another of Hernando’s towns. DADE CITY. This is an important fruit and vegetable shipping point, situated in an exceedingly fertile region. Many of the most substan tial farmers in the county are located in the vicinity. Just now the town is in a state of transition from its present site to one far more elevated and eligible on the line of the Florida Railway and Navigation railroad, but still within the corporate Unfits. Several stores will soon be completed, and a total change of business base effected. It will prove a vast improvement to the hygiene and appearance of the place. The new lo cation includes many choice building sites which will be improved without delay. The old stores and edifices which are to be vacated, it is said, will be promptly occupied by newcomers, rt ilroad operatives, etc. Dade City has just cause to be proud of its two boarding houses, one kept by Maj. Lewis, and the other by Mr. J. K. Davis. The writer was the guest of the latter, but from past experience can testify most cheer fully to the merits of both. At, either, one may enjoy all of the comforts of a pleasant home. PERSONAL. We are under special obligations to Avant & Calhoun, J. D. Thagard, Dr. J. Wallace, and Postmaster F. P. McElroy, for courte sies extended. Dr. Wallace has pursued his vocation here ever since 1870. Mr. McElroy is an appointee of the new administration and makes a most acceptable officer. Col. A. J. Gill, of South Carolina, recent ly formed a copartnership for life with a pretty widow in this neighborhood. The children of the two to. begin with, count sixteen. What will the forlorn bachelor say to this picture of connubial felicity? And yet thev seem to lie superlatively happy. Mr. J. L. Ashkw, a Macon boy, entered a homestead of 100 acres five years ago, near Dade City, which now $5,000 could not buy. He has over twenty varieties of grapes in bearing and thriving plantations of oranges, lemons, bananas, limes, figs, mulberries and Le Conte pears. This shows what well-di rected energy ami industry will achieve in Florida. No more at present. H. H. J. A WYOMING INCIDENT. Sad Story of a Rancher and His Dead Baby. “At Rawlins, Wy., a few weeks ago,” said a commercial traveler to a Chicago Herald man, “I saw one of the saddest inci dents it has ever been my misfortune to witness. A rancher rode into town on horseback, holding in his arms a dead baby —a sweet little thing with flaxen hair, which curled all over its head,, and soft blue eyes which had not been closed even in death. Seventy-five miles across the country that rancher had carried the dead babe in his arms. I talked with him and heard his story. It was like this: A year or more ago he had begun a correspondence with a young wyinan in Chicago, getting her address from a matrimonial paper. The result was an exchange of photographs and finally marriage. The girl went to li'e with him on his ranch, but tho lonely life did not suit the city girl, and a few weeks after the birth of her babe she ran away to Chicago, leaving husband and child behind her. There was no woman on the ranch, and tho rough father did the best he could to rear the child. I have no doubt that ho was tender and attentive. In fact, ho said he neglected his stock and did nothing else but care for the child; but robbed of its mother’s care the little one sickened and died. “ ‘My life seemed to go out with that ar little one,’ said the rancher in his rough way, ‘and when she uied I cried like a woman. Then my heart rose in anger against the mother, and I felt that I could kill her. It seemed to me that ’ar balie would be alive and smilin’ and cooing to day if her mother had not deserted her. Then, says I to myself, I’ll be revenged. And so I wrapped the poor little balie in a blanket, jumped on my horse an’ came here. I’m goin’ to send the mother a little present, a peace offerin’ from her deserted husband. I’m gain’ to send her the body of her lit tle ’uu.’ “He actually procured a little coffin and laid the babe m it, after kissing tho white faeo again and again and cutting a few locks of tho golden hair from the little round head. r l here were no tears in his eyes —ho seemed to bo past that—but u.s he turned away from the railway station, where he had shipped the body to an ad dress in Chicago which I shall not give, ho upjieared to be the mo t broken-hearted man Ive ever seen. “In five minutes ho came running back, seized the little box and exclaimed: ‘“No! no! I can't do it. Give me my little’un. Keep tho money, but give mo my little girl.’ “Before the station agent could say a word the mail had put the box on his shoul der and ran away. Five minutes later we saw him on his horse, the box in his unus, galloping iiack to his ranch.’ Opi: : l Leading Editor.

THE MORNING NEWS: SATURDAY, MAY 7, 1887. THE DEVIL’S DUE. Why a Yorkshire Baby Was Not Christened in a New Church. From the Manchester Courier. When tho writer was a parson in York shire he had in his parish a blacksmith blessed or alllictod—which shall we say ? with seven daughters and not a son. Now, the parish was a newly constituted one, and it had a temporary licensed service-room; but in the week before the newly-erected church was to be consecrated the black smith's wife presented her husband with n boy—his first boy. Then the blacksmith came to the parson, and the following con versation ensued: Black-mith—Please, sir, I've got a little lad at last, praised be, and I want to have him baptized on Sunday. Parson —Why, Joseph, put it off to Times day, when the new church will be const - crated; then your little man will be the first child christened in the new font in the new church. Blacksmith (shuffling with bit feet, hitch ing his shoulders, looking down)—Please, sir, folks say that t' fust child as is baptized i’ anew church is bound to dee (die). The old un (the devil) claims it. Naw, sir, I've seven lasses and but one lad. If tills were a lass agin, 'twouldn’t a mattered; but as it's a lad—well, sir, I won't risk it. William T.
