The flourishing little city of Apopka en joys one peculiar advantage not possessed by,any place in South Florida that wo wot of. When the town was located and laid out it was already tho centre of a dense and thriving community owning numerous orange groves and vegetable farms just be ginning to be remunerative. Asa conse quence, trade began to assume important proportions immediately, and the pioneer, having surmounted the hardships and de- lays incident to early settlers, was himself an Important element in the growth and pro press of the inchoate city. Thus Dr. J. T. MoKey is tbe fortunate proprietor of two orange groves in full bearing, embracing eleven acres in the centre of the town, and the estimated value of all the groves inside of the corporate limits is plaewi at $185,700 —the whole, of course, subject to taxation. But some proper conception of the substan tial progress of tho place within the past year may be formed, when it is stated that at that time there were but three stores at „ the Tavares railroad deiiot, and now they number thirteen, while all around as far as the eye can reach scores of neat and tasty residences have been erected, and still the work goes on. Messrs. Lockhard & McCall, leading real estate agents, have sold since our last visit in 1880, 129 building lots, of which THIRTY HAVE BEEN IMPROVED, and many others will soon have substantial buildings placed upon them. And yet tho old town continues to hold its own, only one . or two stores having been vacated. The Apopka foot up as fol , lows: Business places, 19; lawyers, 1; phy sicians, 3; banks, l; churches, 4 (three white, with a Presbyterian house of worship also soon to be built); one graded school, under the charge of Prof. Allison and Mrs. Mays, with over 100 pupils on the roll; three hotels; one newspaper, the Apopka Citv Union,' conducted by W. L. and C. M. Russell, and TWO RAILROADS, the Florida Midland and Tavares, Orlando and Atlantic roads. Among the new mercantile firms majl be mentioned the feed and fertilizer store of W. L. Roberts, the furniture establishment of D. C. Shaw, undertaker, the extensive hardware and crockery store of E. P. Hyer & Bro., the blacksmith and carriage repair shop of Gustave Loeffler, the livery and sale stables of R. C. Waters, the drug store of Messrs. Jones & Johnson, the staple and fancy grooery house of G. F. Harrison & Bro., and the beef market of S. Daim & Cos PERSONAL. The veteran journalist, Rev. Willis Rus sell, so well and favorably known in Geor gia, resides near Apopka, but is grieviously affected with the partial loss of hiR hearing and eyesight. Honest, conscientious and able in his past record, Mr. Russell has the warm sympathy of his old friends of the fourth estate. Dr. G. L. Jones, the new postmaster un der Cleveland’s administration, is the right man in the right place, and possesses the entire confidence of the community. E. C. Stevens is the owner of an orange nursery in the vicinity and will. have 200,- 000 young trees ready for setting out this fall. Prof. G. A. Harrison is well known as one of the most popular educators in Geor gia. He taught at Thomaston for twenty years. That staunch friend of the Moii\- ixo News, William Levy, has moved into anew and elegant store of his own plan ning, which is crowded with handsome gtxds. Mrs. Morgan, of the Apopka Hotel, strives to make her guests comfortable and keeps open all the year. The writer was indebted to Mr. McCall for a delightful ride through the orange groves and truck farms in the vicinity. Tne hitter have paid well the present season. ORLANDO. We found busier, and more wide awake than ever. To the population it is the liveliest town in the South. And what is wonderful, there has been no break or balk whatever in her onward march from tno severe cold of the past two winters. Heal estate is higher, and in strong demand, as shown by the operations of those who deal in it. Thus Sinclair’s real estate agency has sold within the past year $30,000 worth p an t|, Orlando and the adjacent coun try. Iho senior of the firm, Mr. John G. rune,air, is a man of mark, having served fourteen years in the New Hampshire Legislature, A Democrat in politics, he was also once the nominee of his party for ,K o TT. lor ' au< * came so near being elected that the result was in doubt for some time. Hence by general consent his sobriquet of Gov.” Sinclair. L- Mills, a partner, and President ot the South Florida Foundry and Machine company is also noted for his business qual i lneationß and probity. °. another real estate firm, Messrs. Marks & Hhnter. have been very “irge, and from them we learn Orlando lots thJvr ' ttnco d * u value 36 per cent, during FOREIGN CAPITAL TO THE RESCUE. The writer had the pleasure of forming he acquaintance of Henry Arthur Herbert, TiS,’ a i ’ Wl ° onß °f Ami of immense ,L r , } ton* estate ownars who, disgusted with ine trouble* an<l grievances of the Emerald huvl, ''^ lan K , 'd their base to Florida, and Am!L.i V< * * nto enterprising and useful "riean citizens.

Bravo, bravissimo for Onndo. BARTOW We conclude this papr with a brief notice of the progress and this flourishing town, which is no laggard ki the inarch of improvement. Here it is iserted that real estate in the business and Sentral portions of the corporate limits has hcreased in value fully 50 per cent, in the pai tyelve months. We have the authority o' tie Mayor for this statement. The vegitaUe, and straw berry crops, too, have betn abundant and paid handsomely. The fauna's are jubilant over the fact that in this latiude they are secure from serious damage ly frost, while their lands are not surpassedin productive ness by any in Florida. NaAirally they ex pect a big boom and large influx of popula tion the ensuing winter. Several brick stores and many dwellings have been erected tlw present year, among them a neat Presbylerian ehuren, under the pastoral care of R<V. 8. G. Hair. THE SUSPtEBLIN ACADEMY, too, will ere lonj be completed and prove a priceless blessiig to the community. Our readers have scn the recent accounts of the laying of the corner-stone with imposing Masonic and Jivic ceremonies. The institu tion is nimed in honor of Jacob Summerlin its virtual founder. He donated lo it forty acres of land in and around Bartow, which was parcelled out into fifty-nine lots, from the sale of twenty-seven of which the sum of $lO,OOO has reen realized. The remainder will easily bring $15,000 more. On March 17 the lontract for the erection of a substantial brick edifice, two stories liigh/90 by 65 feet, wfis given out. A halt 15 feet wide will run ihe entire length of the building with a vestibule in front 20 feet square, surmounted by a bell tower and steeple <SS feet high. The contract calls for $17,270, but the furniture and appointments will swell the amount to at least $20,000. This school will supply a great want in that portion of Florida. Bar tow has also organized a BOARD OF TRADE, composed of thirty-five of the best citizens and business men, who are keenly alive to the welfare of their town. The great want of tho place is a commodious hotel with all the modem improvements, albeit there are several respectable and well conducted boarding houses. Among them may be mentioned the pleasant hostle of W. H. Pearce, near the depot of the Florida South ern railroad, which is situated in the midst of one of the finest orange groves in the State. During our visit the Superior Court .was holding its sessions, that model gentle man and learned jurist, Judge Mitchell, presiding. Among the visiting bar the writer had the pleasure of meeting Hon. M. L. Mershon, formerly Judge Of the Brunswick circuit in Georgia. He has moved to Orlando, and is already in the enjoyment of a large and lucrative practice. At this court he iR re tained in several important murder cases. The Judge resigned from the bench in Georgia, because the salary of the office was utterly inadequate for the support of his family. How long will a great State by this niggardly policy practically exclude from her service a large proportion of the very best talent of the country? The writer is indebted to Mr. D. W. Stanley, the new postmaster, for many courtesies. RESOLVED TO INVEST. * As an illustration of the prevailing mania for Bartow “dirt" we met a nice, well dressed old lady, evidently of Yankee origin, deaf as a stone, who inquired by pencil correspondence what Bartow lots were worth, and where sho could find a land agent. Bhe seemed absolutely deter mined to “buy herself rich” without a second’s delay, and doubtless made the effort. Mr. S. H. Tigner, formerly of Macon, Ga., is one of the most extensive and reliable dealers in real estate in Florida. He is a constant patron of the News and deservedly held in high esteem.
