this city Informed ns yesterday that he
would give $5 0 for trie construction of a
railroad from Gainesville to the Suwannee

These roads would give Gainesville a big
boom, an i it is probable that with a little
encouragement to capitalists they could be
secured.
Fernandina Mirror: After lingering in

and near the city. Judge Schuyler ha3 se
cured the will and Holzendorf was released
from durance vile.
Fernandina Mirror: Some time since a
prominent member of the Chicago Board of
Trade purchased 80,000 acres of land cov
ered with long-loaf Florida pine, believing
that the investment would pay him a better
interest than if put into securities ranging
from 4to 7 per cent. The result proved
that he calculated wisely, ua the value of
the property purchased has already ad
vanced upward of 100 per cent.
Burt Sanders of Mosley Hall drove to

ward in the afternoon in bis wagon in com
pany with a negro, who wasdriv.ng. When
a mile or two from town the team took
fright aud ran away, and Mr. Sanders fell
or was thrown from his seat He fell In
such a manner that the wheels passed over
his head, bruisiug and cutting his face in a
frightful manner and rendering him uncon
scious for a time. .
A fire, started by a person named John
son, at Indianola, Wednesday last, unfor
tunately broke away from him, and, spread
ing with lightning rapidity, continued to

Palatka Times: The large body of land
recently purchased by a syndicate of Syra
cuse people, lying between Palatka "and
Francis, and running from the Georgia
Southern and Florida railroad to the Flor
ida Southern railway, is beiug surveyed
and laid out into a city of no mean propor
tions. The company are well fixed so far
as money is concerned, and no expense will
be spared to make this a model place. It is
stated that lai ge numbers of lots nave al
ready been spoken for, aud the pro.-pect is
lively for a big boom out at Francis.
St. Augustine Democrat: Several lady
tourists, it will be noticed, wear a little
silver Maltose cross.attaehedtoanarrow bit
of purple ribbon,upon which are the letters,l.
H. N., and upon the reverse will be found
1880, the date of organization. These are
‘•The King’s Daughters,” and their sacred
mission is to relieve the wants of suffering
humanity in every conceivable direction.
Every kind act t f sympathy performed by
them is done “la His Name,” without the
hope or expectancy of foe or reward. A
blessing goes with them wherever they go.
A. B. Farrar of Palma Bola recently
called at the office of the Tampa Tribune
and gave in an interesting experience,
which is thus stated: Mr. Farrar thinks he
has hit upon a very cheap and successful
way of ridding laud of palmetto, and he
wants all the world to have the benefit of
his experience and knowledge in this mat
ter. He has just killed the palmetto on
five acres of ground by simply pouring a
small quantity of kerosene oil into the
plant. Every one knows that if you kill
the bud of palmetto you kill the root, and
he claims that in a short time after pour
ing the oil upon the bud you can easily
pluck it out with the hand. He used less
than a barrel of oil ou five acres of pal
metto.
Gainesville Sun: The phosphate excite
ment has dwarfed all other interests in this
city and county, and the fever seems to be
on the increase. Many thousand acres of
land have changed hands, and the prospect
is that previous to the expiration of op
tions the sale cf real estate will be enor
mous. There is no longer any doubt oou
cernlng the earnestness of those wboexpress
a desire to purchase phosphate lands. It Is
probable that most of the land upon which
phosphate exists has been located by those
seeking inveetments, and when options
expire prices will very materially advance.
Those who own lands on whioh deposits of
any considerable quantity exist will bo
reasonably safe in asking a fair price. All
such land is valuable, and will probably
become more so.

cent. Exchange—lon -, $182)4; short, $4 83.

The stock market was fairly active to-day, but
developed a reactionary tendency under the
effect of the general expectation of a bad bank
statement. Money, however, is much easier in
all financial centers, and the money received by
the banks during the last few days of this week
must have the effect of making the next week's
statement of a more favorable complexion. The
surplus reserve was nearly wiped out, but the
statein nt is* undoubtedly male upon rising
averages, and as ! here has been no stringency
in money, even before the large purchases of
bonds, there is no fear of a squeeze on tne part
of holders of stocks. Railroad earnings con
tinue to show the same proportion of iuor :aso.
As usual, ihe market is heavily oversold, nud
bulls show a disposition to ta .e care of their
marset interests, so that the outlook for a
more active market, with advancing prices, is
encouraging, and ihere is a growing feeling ou
the street that the long period of stagnation is
nearly over. The reaction from last night’s
rise was still felt this mor ing, and foreigners
were liberal buyers of specialties, widen made
the first price from 24®*i per cent, bett-r than
last til.lit s figure s Further improvement was
made all over the list, notwithstanding the fact
that Sugar soon develop and weakness again, and
run off nearly 1 percent. The regular list soon
fohowe l, and early gains were In almost every
case wiped out. Final losses, however, are
generally insignificant Tnere was much in

Cn it ago, March B. — A mo lerate business was
transacted In wheat to day, though at times
th market ruled very quiet. The feeling was
rather weak and prices averaged slightly lower
than yesterday. There was no s|cial demand
and offerings were fair, and the market a ted
as though somelridy was unloading some wheat
aud trying to sustain the market as much as
possible at the same time. Tbe market opened
at yesterday's closing, eased off 43, 1 4C more,
then rallied 4se, de .-lined 4(&4c, neld steady
and closed aoout 4c lower tnan yesterday. R
ports regarding the gro.ving crop are conflict
ing. Kentucky reports winter killing and Ten
nessee repoi ts cor.sideraole damage, and so
from different sections, though operators look
upon these reports with suspicion. A mod mate
business was done in corn, the tone of the mar
ket being easier. A weaker feeling was attrio
uted mainly to anticipated larger receipt* The
market opened at yesterday's closing prices,
was steady for a time, but the undertone was
weak, and when receipts for Monday came in
sold oft 4®lqc, changed some and closed a
shade lower than yesterday. Oats were active
but weaker, and prices declined 4®%** A id the
market closed taine at nlmost inside llgures of
the day and week. There was little more in
terest manifested in the market for mess pork,
and the feeling was stronger. Prices ruled 5®
THc higher early in the day, but settled back
again during the latter part of the sessioa and
closed quiet. A fairly active trade was re
ported In lard and a firmer f-eling was mam
res'ed. Prices were advanced 24®5c, and the
appreciation was fairly well supported. There
was fair business in ribs, and the market exhib
ited considerable strength. Pric-s were ad
vanced 5®74c. the market closing steady at
medium figures.
