6 GEORGIA AND FLORIDA. NEWS OF THE TWO STATE3 TOLD IN PARAGRAPHS. A Joke on Judge Emory Speer that is Expected to Go the Rounda-Worfh County Naval Stores Men Cutting a Great Many New Boxes-A Cow hiding at Clarkesville. GEORGIA. Never nine* Alnpaha ha* been a town has she enjoyed such a volume of trade as is now pouring Into her. About 5,000,000 feet of timber came down to Darien during the week from the up country. A great deal of timber is expected down during the balance of the month. The rivers are now said to be in good raft ing condit.on. At Chipley, Friday, the city election was held and panned out the following officers: For Mayor, Opt. J. J. Tucker; for Coun cilman, J. H. Ilogan, J. L. Allen, G. A. Pearce, U. H. Layfield, W. D. Wisdom; for Recorder, J. T. Dunlop. At Warrenton, Friday night, Hon. Charles K. McGregor was shot about 8:80 o’clock by an uuknown person concealed in the shrubbery of his front yard. The ball, of 44-calibre, entered his right side, and is lodged just uuder the skin on the left. Maj. Peter Pelham, of Worth county, owns 10,000 acres of fine yellow pine timber. It is all in one body and lies within three milesof therailroad. Thursday Maj Pelham went to New York to arrange for reducing this vast body of timber into lumber. The housekeeper and a number of the em ployes of the Oglethorpe Hotel have arrived at Brunswick. A carload of furniture also arrived Saturday.# The big range has been shipped from New York and is expected daily. The boiler is in position and soon everything will be in readiuess. Ty Ty naval stores men nre cutting a great mapy new boxes again this season. They are extending their business into Colquitt county. Coleman & Parks and W. F. Ford have several men already cutting, and would have a good many more it, they could be had. It seems that good cutters are somewhat scarce and hard to get this sea son. Onß of the sights witnessed in Atlanta ■Saturday was a two-horse load of live part ridges, in coops. The man who owned them sold them very rapidly at a dollar a dozen. He said that be did’not know how many be had, and no one seemed to doubt his word, as barring the coops, the inside of the wagou looked like a bank of partridges. The owner of the birds was from one of the up per counties of the State, and had been on the road several days. A trade was constimated Saturday which places Dalton on the list of booming towns. Tho Crown Cotton Mills sold to a company represent and by Robert Manley, of Philadel phia, seventy acres of laud opposite the mill, on the State road, upon which is to > e erected at once, the largest ornamental iron works in the South within the year. One hundred mechanics will be employed and the plant doubled the second year. All the stock is subscribed. Two other important industries are being negotiated. A judicial joke is out and will start the rounds on the United States circuit. Every one knows how expert and almost unerring the proverbial hotel clerk is when he takes in and sires up a strange guest as he writes his name for the first time upon the book before him, and how accurately bo fits him and his pocket book with a room. It was about three years ago, when, having suc cessfully steered his canoe between Scvlla and Cbarvbdis in the United States Cion gress, Judge Speer ascended the bench of the United States Court in Macon. He arrived in tho city at night and, going direct to the Hotel Lanier, registered "Emory Speer'’in n business-like hand. When he had finished his autograph the alert clerk was already studyinghi.s key board, evidently a little perplexed as to de tails. But presently he turned and asked: "Mr. Speer, what line do you carry?” “Mr. Speer” looked at him and repeated the question in evident astonishment; "What line do I carry! I don’t understand you, sir. Do you allude to my politics!” No sir, but I wan ted go know whether you re quire a large or small sample room.” Ex planations followed, and that hotel clerk al ways keep> migney quiet w hen he goes into the United States Court room. Last Wednesday, James Stewart, of the Porter factory, three miles from Clarkes ville, insulted the sister of Ben and David Crane. He was walking leisurely toward the factory, and when he reached the factory store a crowd was assembled. Among them was David Crane and also Ben Crane. David had a gun with two big barrels and Ben had a cowhide with a long leather lash. David halted Stewart with a gun cocked and required him to stand, and at the same time saying to his brother Ben; “Lay it on.” Ben did lay it on and Stewart stood still. One of our most prominent citizens was on the field and saw the whole occurrence and describes the cracking of the whip like unto that of a pack of fire crackers when the main fuse is on fire. The crowd stood still and no one interfered. Mr. Stewart, when he was let go, cried like a child, and as soon as possible fled, not with a mark about his brow but with marks from the top of his hat to the heel of Ids shoe. Mr. Stewart was always considered a very gool man, and very well thought of. lie has a most elegant lady for a wife. The Crane boys are very nice young men, who. before committing the act of whip ping, consulted a lawyer. After the con sultation, all parties considered it better for them to take the matter in their own hands than go into law. FLORIDA. Page McKinney has resigned the Mayor alty of Apopka. The Seminole, Winter Park’s famoas hos telry, will opeu Dec. SI. The Florida House, at St. Augustine, opened its doors to the public Friday. It is reported that a newspai>er is to be started in a short time at Huntington, about eight miles north of Seville. About 38,500 boxes of oranges have tieen shipped from Plant City so far thus season, aggregating fully 8,350,000 oranges. James H. Benjamin has resigned editorial charge of the Me a- Smyrna Breeze and H. H. Allyn is now mounted on the tripod. “The Gainesville small boy is happy be cause the Mayor has suspended the ordi nance prohibiting the firing of firecrackers, etc., for the week. The residents of Oal; Hill, on the lower Indian river, have petitioned the Post Office Department to have their mail sent by laud instead ot water, as the contrary winds greatly delays the mail boat. H. B. Rockford, an editor, of Saratoga Springs, N. Y., is in Bt. Augustine perfect ing arrangements to issue a weekly society paper on Jan. 15. The paj>er will be known as the St. Augustine Sews, and was issued last year. Col. W. D. Barnes will Issue the Hotel Sews about Jan. 18. Rev. H. J. Walker. Presiding Elder of the St. John’s River Conference of the Methodist Episcopal church, visitod Winter Park Thursday and held a quarterly con ference with the members of the church there. The different reports of the church committees were very encouraging. The temporary court house at St Augustine will lie built upon the old court house site. Saturday Architect S. Von Geminingen submitted the plans and specifi cations to the County Coihmissiouers com mittee, which were accepted. The cost of the building will be from $-(,000 to $5,000. The Palatka people are now moving in the matter of anew schoolbouse, or rather repairing the old one. A meeting will be held next Wednesday nignt to solicit sub scriptions for this purpose. It Is thought that SI,OOO can be as-ilv raised for this pur pose, as several subscriptions of SSO have already been offered. The Commissioner of J .amis and Immi gration of the Florida Southern railway ! will make a trip to Cuba to procure tobacco I seed soon. This seed will be turned over lo j the company's agent at each station for dis tribution among planters along the line of the road. In the meantime a iwimnhlrt is being prepared, w hich will give tho most reliable methods for the planting, caring 1 for and curing of tobacco. Dr. J. H. Williams and a party of gentle men from Keysvillo went, hunting in the Fish-Eating creek neighborhood a few days since and met with unusual success, among other things killing a fine hear, weighing nearly 500 pounds. The dogs ran it into the canebrake and the Doctor lmri to crawl in on his hands and knees to get a shot. He found Bruin slapping the dogs right and left, but he soon put a stop to that, Having been misinformed us to the location of the bear’s heart, be had to shoot seven times before he succeeded in killing It. The next day they saw an old bear and two cubs, but. it being Sunday, the party suffered them to escape. Live Oak Banner of Liberty: One day last week Mr. J. N. Laequa left home to go down to the Santafee river, a distance of a little more than a mile from where he lived, to get a fish gig. In the eveningof thesnme day hi* horse went to the house of Mr. Jack Gill and was taken up and kept until about night, when Gill turned the horse loose and it went back homo. The next day Mrs. Izu-qua sent out to hunt the miss ing husband and father, when lie was found lying dead near the path that he was traveling to the river the day before, with his brains bursted out, one arm broken and several ribs crushed in. Tho horse was supposed to lie perfectly gentle, yet from tho sire of the horses tracks, it is supi>osed that he ran away with Mr. Laequa and threw him against a tree, lulling him instantly. The completion of tho asphalt pavement on King street, St. Augustine, will bo sup plemented by the buiaiing of a shell road from the San Sebastian bridge, running westward through St. Augustine. The County Commissioners at their last meet ing appropriated #BOO toward the road, and the enterprising property owners of New Augustine have raised by private subscrip tion about SI,OOO more, and hope to largely increase this amount. Work on the road will be commmenced immediately, and will lie car ried on as far as the means necessary for laying it are furnished. The ultimate in tention is to complete a shell road eight miles in length, reaching around the entire city, and coming in at the old shell road in North City. This will make one of the fin est drives in the State. George W. Carlisle, telegraph operator and station ugent of Enterprise, shot and killed Henry Wade, of Fort Read, at the depot at Enterprise Saturday afternoon. Wade was intoxicated, and, accompanied by his wife and several colored men, were on the depot platform. He was very abusive and made considerable noise. There being several ladies in the waiting room, Mr. Car lisle stepped out of liis office and told Wade to heqmet. Wade turned around to Carlisle and said: “ you, you are going to take it up,” and at the same time struck at him and missed him. Mr. Carlisle walked toward his office and Wade followed and struck again at Mr. Carlisle as he stepped iuto his office, but hit tbo door, which kuocked a broken knife Wade out of his hand His wife pulled him away and he struck her on the head with his fist and started for the office door. Mr Carlisle warned him to keep uway or he would shoot him, but not heeding the warning he stepped inside, and pulling his hand out of bis hip pocket.struck Carlisle on the forehead with his fist, knock ing biin against the desk Mr. Carlisle re covered himself as he struck at him again and fired, the bullet passing through tho lower part of his right lung. He lived only fifteen minutes. Mr. Carlisle gave himself up to Deputy Sheriff Turner. A messenger was at once sent to County Judge Chandler, of Lake Helen, to hold an inquest, but, ow ing to ill-health and the inclement weather, he could not come until Monday. Another messenger was sent to Orange City for H. P, Burrill, Justice of the Peace, and the in quest was to have been held Sunday fore noon. Wade was about thirty years of age, short and stout. Ho leaves a wife and three children, the oldest eight years. A prominent New Yorker, and an inti mate friend of the lato George P. Loiil lard recently told a reporter that the Lor illard property on St. George street is likely to be converted into a fashionable dub house this winter. Mrs. Lorrillard, since her husband’s death, has no inclination to keep the property, and has offered it for sale. Phil Daly, whose reputation as the owner of the famous club house at Long Branch is almost as wide as the world, is negotiating for the purchase of this prope, ty, for which he lias offered the sum of $40.000. Mrs. Loriilurd wants stin,ooo for it, but in all probability they will meet each other half way. The grouuds are large and the house a spacious one, well-fitted for the purposes intended. It has a fine stable attached, where Mr. Lorillard used to keep one or two of his famous racers during the summer. The property formerly tie longed to the late Isaac Stone, and Mr. Lori Hard purchased it of his daughter, Mrs. 8. B. Vails, for the sum of SB,OOO. The house, a large, old-fashioned building, was reconstructed something after the style of the villas which dot the shores of the Jersey coast, at a cost of probably $5,000. The grounds were also tastefully laid out, and hare it was that Mr. Lorillard foraook bachelor life and became a Benedict. There was something of a nimam-e attend ing the marriage. Mis. Lorillard was form erly a Mrs. Wyeth, and used to spend her winters with her daughter, a vivacious brunette, at the Magnolia Hotel. Mr. Wyeth was st ill in existence, but was separated from his wife, who afterward obtained a divorce. The intimacy which sprung up between this lady and Mr. Lorillard resulted in their marriage, which was celebrated in the Bt. Augustine home which Mr. Lorillard had purchased. No intimation was given of the affair until the morning of the wedding, when Mr. Lorillard called in his steward and ordered him to have a doorway cut through the partition dividing liis bed-cham ber from a boudoir "which was heuceforth to be his bride’s as he was to tie married that afternoon. At 3 o’clock he sent a mes sage to the Rev. Mr. Root, then rector of the Trinity Episcopal Church, to come to his house at five. A little later he sent to Carroll Livingston and his friend Mr. Ruth erford, to he present as best men. This was a cornpl te surpri-e to them, although they had long been his most intimate friends. The wedding transpired so quietly that no one save those actually present at the cere mony were supposed to know aught of it. ART IN FLORIDA.

Extracts from Col. Arcry's Article in tlic Jan uary Harper's. No city of the Union blends more palpa bly the old and t.h > new than Savannah. The place has to a large extent kept Its oarly individuality. It has broad, shaded streets rolling in primitive sand, and lined with old-fashioned residences, with a stately flavor of the aristocratic about them, and even the new and more elegant homes avoid the gorgeous phylactery of modern fashion. The past is a liviug preseuce in this beauti ful old city. The statues and monuments greet one with their historic memories, and tell mutely, yot with eloquence, of eventful annals. Tiie city ami commonwealth were coeval with each other, founded together, and with their annals honorably linked. Savan nah enjoys the distinction of long being the germ of the State, and could the noble knight, statesman and gentleman. Sir James Oglethorpe, the her ie founder of both, have been able to look into the future, and lm\ n seen bis modest little municipal venture become the first naval stores station in the world, the second cotton port of the American continent, and the headquarters of the greatest railway and steamship transportation system of the South, as it has, his great heart would have throbbed with pride, and ho would have felt that he iiad planted well. On the afternoon of the first day of Feb ruary, 1733 (O. 8.), Oglethorpe landed at Yamacraw Bluff, on the Savannah river, with 111! colonists. This spot, in a direct line, is only twelve miles from the sea, but the winding of the river lengthens the dis tance to eighteen miles. The site is the first elevation above the stream, anti consisted of a lofty bluff of sand, with a dense pine forest extending back. Into this for est the colonists cut an opening and ar ranged a quaint little plan of a place, remind ing oue ot a child’s toy town, with every thing precise and ’ rectangular—streets, houses, and squares laid off mathemati cally and alike. The system of commodious public parks at regular intervals is the glory of this “Forest City,’’ and constitutes one of its most beau tiful and healthy features. As the city ex tended, these open spots were continued in the same beneficent plan, uutil there are dozens of them, shady with great trees, green with velvety swards, threaded by broad walks, and many of them ornate with monuments and fountains. The broader streets strike them in the centre, and nar row streets pass by them, while they are confronted by homes and churches. The bluff upon which Savannah reposes rises abruptly some forty feet, and extends a mile on the river from’ which it receives its name. On each side of the city on the river the land consists of low swamps and creeks that have admitted of little improve ment, and only of rice culture, and that have bred disease and invited epidemics. In the writer's recollection there were de structive visitations of yellow fever in 1854, 1858 and 187fi, paralyzing business and de stroying life. But in the year 1877 the Leg islature of Georgia made an appropriation of one-third of the tax of the county of Chatham, in which Savannah lies, amounting to $27,633 73, for the drainage of these swamps. The low, dank, unhealthy marshes were con verted into smiling truck farms and rich vegetable gardens. The beautiful city no longer wrestles with the burden of malarious environment that surrounded it with bale ful vapors, and bred deadly sickness at in tervals. Aside from the moral and sanitary effects so immeasurable, it has in the trans formation of black bogs into oases of fer tility created a growing and profitable truck industry. From the records of the Ocean Steamship Comjiany, that valuable scheme of transportation, we learn that in 1881 the steamers carried North 93,000 packages of vegetables. The business has grown to 236,- 000 packages, und the local production has increased to 93,000. From an early period the social lines of demarcation were very broadly marked. As much of au aristocracy was built up as this country will allow. Oldlamilies, rich from commerce or planting, at the head of great cotton houses or baronial plantations of slaves, with large incomes and the oppor tunity and taste for leisure, luxury and culture, brought home life to a degree of polish and elegant exclusiveness that could not be surpassed anywhere. The prohibi tion against slavery and spirits was early removed, it being found on trial that the colony was at a disadvantage in rivalry with its neighbors, and the people soon became the possessors of great estates of slaves, and practiced a refined conviviality. Hospitality ripened into a flue art. and never flowered to more exquisite display than in this city. The men were lordly, honorable, chivalric and thorough-bred. They were college-educated, well-read aud well-traveled, uupracticed in labor—that is, the plan tens—lavish with money, dressed fashionably, and noted for their courtesy and respect to women. A European lady said she would know a Bavaunah-raised gentleman anywhere. They were quiek looded, given to the professions, naturally eloquent and fond of pleasure. The women were pure, luxurious,modest and thoroughly feminine. They were absolutely helpless, so far as the practical world w-as concern ed, and w holly depended upon father, hus band, brother, or son. It was paid of this civilization that the male members of a family cared for the females, and the result lias been an ornamental tyie of woman hood. Every social and educational advant age was enjoyed by the young women. They were prot eted from rude associations, tonderly nurtured, taught accomplish ments, their morals and manners cultivated and every feminine grace fostered and de veloped. There has never been a finer strain of ladies j aud they wore trained for presiding as house keepers as well at for shin ing iu the parlor. While screened from hai-dship, labor and exposure, they were taught the management of sorvants and domestic administ ration of large households, requiring taet aud energy. The bond be tween the old and young mistresses and their family servants was a close and tender oue, aud the domestic help of that regime was peculiarly faithful and skilled, and noted for its deference and devotion. It is fast passing away, and the house service under the later civilization cannot compare to it. In the olden time wealthy and even ordinary homes were stocked with servants who dhf hutone thing. The new era has much changed the old condition. When, in the vicissitudes of the city’s varied career, the dainty rlenizens of the palatial mansions were forced to peddle gingercakes from the basements, the ser vants gone, it was a pathetic spectacle. The old social aristocracy has been thinned. New ideas have coble in, and the old baronial civilization is gone; but the fragrance of the broken vase lingers there still. There is the same social purity and refinement without it* extreme exclusive ness. To gain admission to the liest homes the stranger must still lie satisfactorily vouched for. The old-fashioned spirit of elegaut hospitality yet prevails. Enter tainment is still an art. and the best social characteristics of the former regime con tinue under the best practical forms.

Baltimore is the lending market in tho world for terrapin. The finest species are probably found In Chester river, although it requires a connoisseur (f considerable ability to discriminate lietween those caught in Chester river anil those taken trom other waters mid marshes ulong the < 'hesapenke. The implements for cateTiing terrapin are very simple. They are otten taken by dragging in waters where they are hiber nating, or the terrapin hunter, armed with a stick, on one end of which is a. hook, will walk around the marshes, Insert ing it into holes made by muskrats and other animals, aud if the stick come* in contact with a terrapin, the hook end is inserted aud his terrapinsbip Is lirougnt forth. Several are often taken from one lied They are in a state of lethargy when caught in the winter season. In very cold weather they will often freeze, and, though heroically tested, thev shew no sign of lite. If submitted to warmth they will most likely dio when in this condition, though if placed in a vessel of cold water they will gradually thaw out. Although Maryland has the reputation for serving terrapin, it is not always that ono here can even purchase a plate of real diamond-back at hotel* or restaurant*, while in other States it is next to impossi ble to purchase it prepared. The cost el real terrapin—and the fact that sliders, a cheaper species, can be easily worKed in when preparing ihe dish —offers an induce ment to caterers to mislead. But in the many cities outside of Baltimore where the palate of the connoisseur is less cul tivated, an analysis of a dish of terenpin, which was billed on the menus as “Terrapin, Maryland style,” would dis close a hash wherein the silver has sup planted the diamond-back, aud veal and chicken are thrown in for bulk, with eggs .Manufactured for the purpose, the whole flavored with sherry wine and spices. It is not surprising tiiat the jieople who eat this dish at diamond-back prices go off wonder ing why people rave about terrapin. The true way of preparing terrapin is simplicity itself, and tho requisites for en joying the dish are first, a purse that will stand the expense, and, secondly, an appre ciative palate. The fact that simplicity in preparing terrapins is the best method was proved some years ago at a large chari table fair given in this city. The widow of a politician from one of the lower counties had charge of the lunch department, aud as sho was well versed in the preparation of delicacies, tho lunch department was a suc cess, notably the terrapin, for which, from the flirt to the close of the lair, there was a rash that nearly depleted the market, and the terrapins alone netted several thousand dollars to the fair, for more were eaten during that month than ever before in tho same time. As the preparation was tba secret of the demand, it may prove of interest to give the receipt. It was as follows: After kill ing the terrapin by cutting off his head and allowing him to bloed, boil him until tho shell can be removed, then remove the liver and carefully cut out the gall bladder, which is imbedded therein; then pick the terrapin into small pieces, reserving every portion except the shells and gall bladder. To this add a little salt and pepper, and. if desirable, a small piece of butter. No water need be added, as suffi cient juices will have accumulated during the picking operation. Then stew over a coal nre or chafing dish and serve iu hot plates, and if sherry or other wine is to be drank during the feast, be careful not to let any of it spill either into the chafing dish or on the terrapin when served. If you nre going to drum champagne, and not sherry, then season the terrapin with sherry or Maderia wine just before the light of your chafing dish is extinguished. Pre pared thus, you will have a dish that will at all times stand foremost in tho list of deli cacies. Dealers say that the supply of terrapin has not deteriorated of late years in Mary land waters, though but little lias been done in tho direction of terrapin farming or pounding. The cost of terrapin varies ac cording to the supply and the size and con dition. For the finest terrapin, under ordi nary conditions $.50 to SOO per dozen is paid, though good terrapin can lie purchased for considerably less money. Advice to Motners.
