Tho dry streak of country immediately around VVatkiosviile has not as yet received any rain, and crops are badly parched. There has not been any rain since April This is a very small belt of country.

The country between Athens and Atlanta, on the Northeastern and Air Line railroads, for the past few days lias been visited every afternoon by fine showers, but they are very irregular.

The ball consisted of a cluster of thirty-five diminutive ears of corn, ail being fairly well filled with ma tured grains. The longest of those ears is about 5 inches ami the shortest about 2 inches. The whole ball is equal to nearly two good cars of corn. This vas extra from the regular ears of coni on the stalk from which it was gathered. A groat deal of interest is manifested among the colored people of Atlanta and other parts of the State in the National Colored Exposition, which is to lie held there hi 1888. One of the motives which induced the directors of tho exposition to select At lanta was the tender by tho Gentlemen's Driving Park Association of their grounds and buildings for the use of the exposition. There is now a movement among some of tiie prominent colored citizens looking to securing grounds and buildings of their own. Iso far the proposition has taken no definite shape, but it is lieing very seriously considered. Muj. AV. Brunson, of Perry, owns a pig that lias developed some peculiar trait*. Bhe is a gil l pig. ’ She was jietted when quite young, luia soon became fond of human so ciety, in fact she became vory familiar witli quite a number of business men on Carroll street. Bhe became quite indolent, es pecially whon she found that she would not come face to face with the alternative to “root pig or die." When her food is placed before her she invariably reclines at full length while eating. She is quite exclusive in choosing her associates, and positively refuses to eat in company with the other hogs belonging to Mr. Brunson. The Atlanta Evening Journal publishes an interview with Charles A. Collier, whom tho Macon Telegraph correspondent says Mr. Clark Howell called a puppy and u two faced viUlain. Mr. Collier says: “The statements in the Macon Trlrgraph , in so far as they contain the impression that Mr. Howell offered me an insult, and that I did not resent it, are infamous lies, and tho in formant of the author of the article men tioned was a reckless and willful liar; mid I wish further to state that any man who says I promised to vote for Woodward for Clerk of the Council is a malicious liar, unworthy of the confidence of anv [iorsoii and cow ardly beyond contempt.” In Banks county a bloody cutting scrape occurred last Snnday at Salem church, while preaching was going on. Messrs. Sogers and Stephens were lioth young men about grown, and unfortunately were in love with the same young lady. They were outside of the church talking, and they agreed to go off the church property and settle the difficulty which had grown up lie tween them. They proceeded to the spring, which is ulsalt 200 yards distant from the church. Before reaching the spring the fight took place in which Sogers cut Steph ens, inflicting two dangerous wounds. The latter had a severe gash cut across the lower part of the stomach, and another in the arm. The news of the encounter reached the church, and it broke up the meeting. Sogers was promptly arrested mid gave bond. Several days ago tho Columbus Enquirer- Nun announced the appointment of J. C. Adams, of Hogansville, as postal route clerk on the Georgia Midland, and stated that he was a good Democrat. The ap pointment seems to have lieen unsatisfac tory to the Meriwether Vindicator, and it intimates that lie is a Republican, and asks the Enquirer-Sun for evidence of his De mocracy. Yesterday morning the Enquir rr-Sun published extracts from letters to Congressman Grimes from such prominent Democrats as Judge Fen-ell and Judge Longley, of LaGrange; Hon. Peter F. Smith, of Newnan; Hon. John \V. Parks, of Meriwether, and numerous others, strongly indorsing Mr. Adam’s character and Democracy. Congressman Grimes is thoroughly satisfied that Air. Adams is a good Democrat, and says he has no apology to make for causing his appointment. Frank AVilliams, who was implicates! with John Trammell in the murder of old man AA’iUiam Johnson, and who was triisl in Pulaski Superior Court and acquitted, was arrested by Sheriff Sapjxmld at Selma, Ala., a few days ago, on a warrant charging him with perjury, and was brought to Ilawkins ville Saturday. He guve bond in the sum of S2OO, nnil was to have hud a hearing before A. C. Pipkin, Justice of tho Peace, on Mon day, but as no prosecutor appeared he was discharged. AVilliams was wanted as a witness against Trammell, but as soon as he was acquitted he skipped out liofore an attachment could lie served on him. The prosecution then swore out a warrant against him for perjury, and tho Governor offered a reward of $11K) for his arrest, but as the arrest was not made in time for him to testify against Trammell, the reward was revoked. Williams will return to Alabama to live. Tho whole amount of property given in in Terrell county is an lucreasc over last year of $61,558. There is an merer*' in the town district of $24,233: in tho Eleventh, $13,380; in the Bronwood district, $!*,!I4I; in tho Third, $7,615; in the Fourth, $5,456. There is a ueereuso in the Twelfth district of $2,347. 11l the wild land returns there is a decrease of $4,000. The cause of this decrease is supposed to be that these lands have lieen im proved and returned as such. The colored people gave iu $80,334 worth of projierty, an increase over the last returns of $8,033. There are in the county 904 white voters and 1 .088 colons). There are in the countv seven '?• ivvers, twelve doctors, two dentists and :ist. Mr. Harris says there would 1 een n greater increase in both the re • "f pr<i|ierty and polls if the .Justicesof ace had luniishd him all the names oi I ■ i csidcuts of their re,[motive districts, as the law requires of them. A spicy case was begun in the City Conrt at Atlanta Friday morning. The defendant on trial is a very bright and shapely mulat to girl, named Mary L. Hunt, and she is charged with adultery and forni cation with Dr. G. AA T . Gardiner, The ease has a peculiar history. Mary Hunt’s mother died when Al u-y was a very young girl. The defendant is u very intelligent girl, about two-thirds white. Some tour years ago her grandmother, not being able to maintain her, gave her to Dr. Gardiner and his wife to work for them, provided they would support and educate her. Some time ago u petition was filed m tiie City Court of Atlanta by Dr. G. AV. Gardiner as next friend of this girl against Dr. D. Smith, for SIO,OOO damages, alleging that he. Smith, had chlo roformed the said Mury Hunt while she was in his dental chair, and in this con dition he, RnuDi, hail 'delated her |s'i-M>n. After this SJtsiiß *.;>puared before the grain 1 Mur • a t-sd i>, (.Wffiaer indicted fw tibvl THE MORNING NEWS: SATURDAY, JULY 23, 1887. on account of this suit. Mattel's rested in this condition for some months, when on June 21 last, the attorney of Dr. Smith had a warrant taken out for Mary L. Hunt and Dr. G. AV. Gardiner, charging them with fornication and adultery, which cases are now on trial. The prosecutor in said cases is a negro named NV ash Cobb, who had been a servant for Dr. Gardiner, and who had lieen discharged by him. It appeared from the evidence that Cobb was sent for to come to the office of Smith's attorney, and there requested to swear out a warrant for Mary Hunt and Dr. Gardiner for adultery and fornication, which he did. The only wit nesses for the prosecution are two negroes, Wash Cobb and John Lyle, who have been impeached by a number of the best white men in town and sustained by a number of colored citizens.

It will lie engaged for several days dressing a largo lot of dry flooring on hand. Orange blossoms were seen a few days ago in the grove of Dr. R. J. Kendrick, at An thony. This is not an unusual freak, ami the doctor thinks those blooms will pro duce fruit which will ripen about next April or May. It is learned that McCoy, the negro lately appointed as postal clerk, has acknowledged his inability to do the work, and Mr. Tur ner, superintendent of the railway mail service, has telegraphed the postmaster at Palatka to appoint a substitute. At Anthony lumber for the erection of tho Methodist church is now being placed on the grounds to augment the supply already on hand.

E. .Johnson, who was sent north some weeks ago by the Winter Haven college trustees, has re turned, having secured a loan for the benefit of the institute of $30,000. If this be true, the work on the building will be pushed ahead at once. The hottest no-whisky campaign ever waged in Florida will soon Vie inaugurated in Alachua county. The temperance peo ple have organized thoroughly, the question is lieing debated in every election district anil no stone will be loft unturned which can enlighten nr influence the voter. George C. Moore, from near Montgomery, Ala., nfter prospecting for a home through out South Florida, purchased, at Auburn dale, Thursday, of T. B. Wat kins, a ten acre lot six miles north of town, paying SSOO. The land is a fertile live-oak bluff fronting on lake Juliana. Mr. Moore will improve the lot at once. A petition is being signed by all of the best pisiple of Quincy calling for an election on the “liquor question” nt an early day. Both white and black are signing it, and there is no doubt that the county will vote' whisky out. All the bartenders have signed it.

The local trustees of the Anthony graded school will hold their first session for tho fall term on July 23, to discuss the matters connected with the interests of the school.

Texas, was found twenty-five miles east of Arcadia bv a party "of hunters Wednesday. Ho had lieen fourteen days without food and was reduced to skin mid tiones. He* measured six feet four and a half inches, and weighed 116 pounds. The town authorities have taken him in charge.

E. Wilson, Wilson Isaac and John W. Wellington lie appointed special commissioners to view and locate said rood as prayed for in the petition. The commis sioners will make report to the county board at its mooting in August. Dr. Kendrick, of Authony, has decided to have an artesian well bored near his resi dence at an early day. One for the public on the railroad square near tho depot is I *<- ing talked of. An artesian well on this square would he of inestimable value to the citizens and the town, and if the citizens would subscrilx' liberally to tho enterprise, the Florida Railway and Navigation Com pany would doubtless uid them. A factory for the preparation iuid ship ment of Spanish moss is now in process of construction a few miles east of Anthony. A quantity of moss is already gathered for this purpose. The projector of the enter prise expects to realize in the New York market Bc. per pound for this spontaneous production of Florida, which exists in inexhaustible quantities in this section, and up to this time has remained unutilized. J. B. Whaley, of near Span - , iR one of the successful growers of that section. Tins season he him shipped over 300 crate© of tomatoes from an acre and a lmlf of land, which netted, after deducting all cx|ienscs, including fertilizers and cultivation, $2(10 tier acre. Mr. Whaley thinks the secret of Ills success is main I v in shipping good stock, properly packed. His experience in the past spring’s cabbage crop was almost equally as sat isfactory as his tomato crop. The returns for melon shipments from the Anthony depot and the neighboring village of Sparr have not liren satisfactory or re munerative tei tho growers, some ear loads netting simply the paltry sum of u few dol lars. .Just where the trouble is it is not <er Inin. The growers think the fault lire in ipc commission merchant, and heap anathemas upon him accordingly; but part, of the fault lies in the quality of the melons shipped, and the over-supply iu tho mar- j krts. Quite a stir was caused in the neighbor hood of Mom Bluff las' IVul icoiav night by the ibMtUt Alan* Muwe tf\ u. . oci ored man in the employ of J. W. Reynolds, and was out just after dark, mending up some log heaps that were burning. He had just finished and had start'd to the house, when a man stepped from behind a tree and shot him in the back' and shoulder, four or five halls taking effect. The intent was murder. The man is up again. Ho says he knows the party who shot him. A certain young man has left the neighborhood. Moss Bluff is a thriving agricultural and fruit-growing settlement on the Orklawaha river, in Marion county. It classes among its citizens some of the most successful fanners and orange growers in this part of the State. The lands being very productive, yield immense crops of corn, cotton, sugar cane, potatoes, etc. The crops were never better than this season, and the farmers wear smiling faces. Ocala has heretofore monopolized the cotton trallir in that sec tion, but that town had only one buyer last season, and the peoplo were not satisfied with the prices. Naval Cadet William P. Baya, of Jack sonville, who about a month ago became dissatisfied with the course of study and training in the United States Naval Acad emy, sent in his resignation and returned home, left Tuesday for New London, Conn., to join his class on the naval vessel Constel lation, the Secretary of the Navy having refused to accept his resignation, but instead ordered him to report for duty on Jilly 23. Cadet Baya was at first very much disap pointed at not having his resignation ac cepted, but finally cheered up und willingly consented to go. " Having been in training for three years ho • will graduate in a year longer. Thursday Dr. J. C. Burroughs, of Jack sonville attended a man who had been struck by lightning at bis home in Panama, a small place about five miles down the river. The man's name was A. F. Wood. He had just returned home, and was lead ing his horse into the stable when the bolt of lightning struck and killod the horse in stantly, and, knocking him down, rendered him f’or a time unconscious. The doctor found upon examination tiiat Wood’s right side was burned slightly by the electric fluid, and that his right arm and leg were partially paralyzed from the effects of the shock. Dr. Burroughs relieved the pain as much as possible, and when he left Mr. Wood was feeling much better. The Croat Council of the Improved Order of Red Men of the State of Florida kindled its regular council lire in the wigwam of Cherokee Tribe No. S, of Jacksonville, Tues day. The following chiefs were elected to serve for tjie ensuing term, until the next regular kindling of the council fire of the Great Council: Groat Prophet, Louis Wit kovski; Great Sachem, A. Duncan; Great Senior Sagamore, L. A. Biggs; G reat Junior Sagamore, John A. Dohpi; Great Chief of Records, R. Lester Gladden; Great Keeper of Wampum, James Millon; Representative to the Great Council of the United States, W. N. Menchani. Pursuant to arrange ments on invitation to a banquet at Hotel Togni was tendered to the Great Council by Cherokee Tribe No. x, of Jacksonville, and accepted. A box car was robbed at Callahan Satur day night, July 10, but only two boxes of chewing tobacco were missing. The Mar shal of the place, Mr. Janies Carroll, who is also car inspector of the Florida Railway and Navigation Company’s line, was put on the lookout,but no elue was traced to the theft till a passenger who boarded the train at Bryceville Wednesday informed him of a strange man offering tobacco for sale in small lots along the line of the road. The culprit proved to be Robert O’Brien, who was for a long time employed by the rail road at Femandlna, and has heretofore borne an excellent name, having had many trusted duties given him, which were faith fully performed. His ruling vice was his fondness for drink. He pleaded that hun ger drove him to the theft. Charlotte Harbor Beacon: Capt. Hall, of steamboat Shipman, arrived at Fort Meade bridge on Monday last, having made a safe run from Kissimmee City. He was delayed a week by an accident to part, of his ma chinery, which had to be sent to Orlando for repairs. Otherwise, he was not long on the trip. Capt. Hall reports Peace river even in its present medium low stage as far better than he expected to find a stream never before steamboated. Its impediments were caused by fallen timber and the carelessness of bee-hunters and shingle-getters felling trees into the channel, a practice which ought to lie condemned. Should this be the pioneer of freight boats on Peace river, merchants all along the val ley will be able to obtain their heavy freight via Trabue from New Orleans, St. Louis and Cincinnati. Such a trade alone would pay a lino of steamers across the Gulf, fhough Fort Meade appears to Ik- th furthest limit of freight navigation, ('apt. Hall has, after a careful exami nation of the river above given his opinion that he cun make excursions as far as the mouth of Kissing n Springs near Bartow, and the Fort Meade citizens are now busy assisting him to cutout the lighter obstrue tions in this sect ion of the river below the bend from the brick yard down to the shoals at the new bridge*—a stretch in cluding every point at which the river would be crossed by anew railroad.
