Tbe .Vc,s has oaught on to the faot that that que-tiou is now being quietly agitated, and the adoption of the plan urged by a number of citizens of Dawson. They want the city government to take the sale of whisky ia band, shut up the barrooms, and sell it on the dispensary plan, fashioned after Athens. The profits derived from the sale of whiskv at the dispensary would be turned into the city treasury, which, the friends of the movement claim, would be su lioient to pay the entire expenses of the city governmeut and do away with the necessity of levying any taxes whatever. The sales by tbe dis pensary at Athens last mouth footed up 16,000. Atlanta Herald: W.B. Burke, the old book store inan, says that he was first to an nounce to the outside world the secession of South Carolina. He was a clerk in the con vention, and the only man there not bound by a solemn oath of secrecy. That he was not bound iu this way was purely an over eight. “I was sitting st the secretary’s desk," he tells it, “a few feet from tbe speaker, Hon. Maxey Greggs, when the ordinance was passed, and w as the only one —outside of the members—present at the time. A dense crowd blocked the street and stairway leading up to the hall. Iramedi ntelv after the passage of the ordinance I raised a window.and lo friends below an nounced tbe event. The next day,” continued Mr. Burke, “the Charleston Mercury had its dispatches from Savannah, Montgom ery, Baltimore and New York headed ‘For eign News' and then i realized for the first time that I was a citizen of the republic of Bouth Carolina and not of. the United States.” Albany A T etes and Advertiser: The work on the new Baptist church has unearthed some relics that are valuable. And one of them has fallen into the hands of tbe News and Advertiser. The work of tearing •way tbe upper portion of the old church disclosed a number of deposits that would do credit to the art icles placed in a corner stone. The work of remodeling the church led to the destruction of the -teeplo first, and it was in this that a number of relics were found. Among the most interesting of these was one found yesterday that is now in the possession of the jVet is and Advertiser. This is an advertising bill that looks like money that was used by J. M. Duff, the tinner and hardware dealer. On oue side it presents the appearance of a tlO bill while on the other tho advertising scheme is disclosed by tbe moneyed appear ance marked by the figure 8. But the most in teresting part of ah is boa clurography that adorns the lower edge of the bill. In whose handwriting it is no one knows, but it is ehere and re ids as follows: “Beardin & j Lehman done this work tbe 18 ma 1874” Americas Timet-Recorder : Intelligence ! reached Americui Tuesday of a bloody tragedy that occurred on M ind y at J o’clock some twelve miles from Atnericus, 'in which a negro was shot twice with j probably fatal effects. It see ns that Joo Perry and a negro named Streaton 1 Clark became embroiled over some cotton Perry had ginned for < lark. One word led to another, and presently both parties became thoroughly enraged, and rerry mads an effort to secure a large Mantling lying near, hut Clark was t o qn.ck snd la a twinkling bad struck it from his arm and gained possession of it, prepor : ing to brain Perry. It was a life ar.d death case. Perry ttep;d back a pace or two and | sa zed bis shotgun, leveled it on tbe advanc ing negro. One shot followed another ad Clark kneeled over on his fsce, bleeding profusely. The first shot took effect in his fane, tearing the flesh inti shreds and pre seating a revolting spectacle. The second load entered tbe breast, just infringing on the lungs. The negro was moved to ah< use and the best attention possible given his wounds, hut they are of such a nature and extent as to almost preclude the necessity of medical attention. At last accounts the negro was barely olive and bis death is ex pected at any moment. Tolhattun .Veto Era: Last Wednesday morning a country darky sauntered iuto W. T. Allen’s store and, wnen he thought no one was looking, stepped up to a cider keg and gulped do.< n a glass of cider. Mr. Allen, who bad seen him slip the o tier, asked him as be walked out if he knew the glass cental ed rat poison. Tbe darky didn't take time to explain, but hurried to the drug storo and told Fierce Wostou that he hod taken “rat plsen” in some cider. Mr. Weston, supposing that he knew wbat he was talking about, administered an ounce of ipecac and sulphate of zinc with out asking aiy questions. While w siting for the medicine to take offect Mr. Weston sought Mr. Allen and learning from him that he oniy frightened the darkey and that he had taken no poison, went back to his store and told the darky that it was all a joke Mr. Allen had put up on him. But the good news came too late, the darky was already beginning to fell the signs of distress which hs mistook for the uncanny grip of death’s icy Angers. After wroßtlmg with himself about twenty minutes he came in and asked for some medicine to “stop de misery.” He had spent his last dime for ipecac, but prom ised Mr. Weston the first dollar ho could get if he would give him something to "set sle de misery in his insides.” Mr. VV’estou told him that he would just have to wait until the medicine spent its force, and when the stores closed for the evening the negro was still wrapped arouud a wagon tongue In the rear of the drug store, eugugi din regretting bia experience with the cider.

About $30,000 will go into the construc tion of the new college buildings at DeLand, the generous duuatiou ot Mrs. J. B. Stetson to the Stetson University. John Berdine, a young man clerking in the Gulf pharmacy at, Puuta Gorda, while examining a revolver last Saturday handled tbe toy a little too careless, when it went off and the ball took offect in his arm. C. M. Bramlett died suddenly at Dade City W eduesduy of congestion of the brain at the residence of Judge M. A. Mabry. The deceased was a native of Mississippi,an excellent man and a brother-in-law ot Judge Mabry. Wednesday about 10 o’clock a rain and wind storm, or cyclone, struck the town of Tavares, blowing the roof off Terry’s grain house, the windows out of the Florida Ceutral and Feniusular building and tore up things generally.

Fernondina Mirror: The steamer Farmer took a heavy cargo of naval stores to Sa vannah Tuesday morning, leaving nearly 500 barrels of rosin on the dook.

About .i o’oloek the alai m was given, and very soon hundreds of citizens were there. Ibe fire had just begun to take good hoi i, but i; was put out with but slight damage done. Deland Record: Many of those who have bearing groves in this section are go ing out of other business and cemoring nil their attention and time on the groves for the reasou they see more money in them than in anything else that they can turn their hands to. Of course such groves have been well fed and cared for, uud they will pay every timo, eveu if the price per box obtained is less than sl. Fernandlna Mirror: Tbe cut in the prices of canned oysters is seriously affect ing that industry. They are now selling at about one-haif what they brought last year, and there is no money in tne business. We fear that the cut was made for tbe exp ess purpose of breaking down the new facto ries iu Georgia, South Carolina. Alabama and Florida. It may result iu a temporary shut-dewu, but will not succeed iu accom plishing the object intended. Lieut. J. M. TANARUS, l’arteilo. Fifth Infantry, U. S. A., the crack shot of the ermy, writ, s to the American Field, ot Chicago, that he is at Mosquho Inlet, Kia., whore he is en joying the finest kind of sea bass fishing. “I caught,” ho says, “a 90-pounder on Dec. 31, which fought like a demon, and I wish vou could have had him on your hook. 1 learned, for the first time, that ea bass first strike the bait with their tail, aud then grab it, which was quite a surpri e to me." W. F. Barnes of Orlando, long time an attache of the Orange County Reporter has invented a most ingenious piece of me chanism of which he is the sole owner aud patentee. Instead of the old-fashioned newspaper mailing device, still iu use, his machine uses rubber stamps which, during the revolution of the wheels, impress tbe subscriber’s name on the margin of the paper. Complaints are sometimes made that the subscriber failed to get his copy ; a fact which is traceable to the slipping of the little strip pasted onto the margin. Mr. Barnes’ invention will not only be more certain, but cheaper than the old method. DeLand Record: Inlowpla-es the ther mometer registered hero Monday morning as low as 23'’.

She was passing over some freshly burned ground, when her dress caught from the coals, it is supposed. Her body was soon wrapped in flames. Her patents heard her screams and rushed to her assistance as soon as possible and were themselves badly burned in attempting to extinguish the flames. All their effort* were useless.

I’unta Gorda by Marshal J. A. Daughtry, and tvat it was not known that this house was here until discovered by Mr. Daughtry. The truth of the matter is that the house wos built by a man by the name of Rioe, and was occupied by him for more than three years, many of the citizens of Puma GorJa have visited Mr. Kice while living in this bouse, and every citizen in town knew where the bouse was located, as they all knew wherJ Mr. Rice lived. Mr. Rice was somewhat of a recluse. He lived secreted in this house located in the center of a bunch of palmettos, and never came out except when business called him.
