Moonlight Picnic.
It was my privilege to attend a moonlight
picnic at the prosperous and delightful little
city of Hicksford, Va., last Tuesday ever ing.
The night selected for the grand event could
not have been improved upon—it was so cool
and delightfully pleasant. About 8 o’clock the
people began to gather in the Briggs’ grove,
and seat themselves on and around the large
p'atform that had bien built for dancing pur
poses. The entire grove was made bright by
an immense quantity of Japanese lanterns,
hung here and there and everywhere. To one
at a distance, it m emed as if a shower of stars
had fallen from the heavens and had been
caught in the trees, as it were, so beautiful and
brilliaul were they. But with all this bril
liancy and beauty, they did not excel the
bright eyes of the tair damsels, who contrib
uted so much to the cbarinB and attractions of
the occasion. Dancing commenced at 8: JO,
and was kept up until the “wee sma” hours.
Bui hold! I am about to leave out the most
important feature—the supijer; it was Bimply
superlative. Clev< r and handsome men, beau
tiful and charming women, a rich and costly
supper—were the noticeable objects on this
delightful occasion. A fine people, they.

— Taming of The Shrew.
To the Reader: As I write these last pages
this morning a flood of warm spring-sunshine
rich and yellow is pouring in through my wide-
opened windows, lighting up the remotest cor
ners of tbe dingy little room, and spreading
upon the bare and unswept floor two long
gleaming strips of golden carpet Just outside,
in the branches of some exiled waler-map'es just
putting forth their first p lie green tender leaves
the birds are holding high carnival, hopping up
and down, back and forth from twig to twig
dartiug here and there, fluttering and fl ishiug
in and i ut among the leaves— making love in
their pretty bird-'ashion, I suppose—znd all
the while chirping, whistling and singiug so
in. rriiy, as if their little throats were not large
enough by half for their overflowing hearts to
pour their gladness out with. The sky, serene
and sortly blue, is faultless of a cloud And
such sunshine!—so delicately rich; bo softly
warm; so brightly golden; so exquisitely and
intoxicatingly vivifying! The very atmosphere
seems overcharged with life and joy and glac-
ness to be bad for the breathing in. Natuie
has come out in holiday attire to-day, even in
the tu*y, crowded city, and woos one away
from work and worldly things with a gentle
persuasiveness that is almost irresistible. Im
prisoned in many a dingy counting-house,
musty office and drowsy schooi-room, tired
eyes wander from the meaningless pages of tbe
open books befoie them to the brighter and
more inviting one without, and. soothed and
rested, close themselves a moment, perhaps, to
dream of sunny hillsides, shady valleys a id
quiet woods. It is a day fit to make a truant
of even Duty herself. It is such a day as
charms even Seltishuess to f rget itself, cheats
grief to smile, and steals from Want the mem
ory of its misery; when Sorrow’s very sighs
seem to f-.de away into quivering whispers of
hope, and the laughter of joy hath the ring of
something like the touch of a delicious maduess
in it.
Happy is he who, on such days as this, can
lay aside books and work, and, going forth
alone iuto tbe leafy forests cool and green, sit
wrapped in musings all day long on moss-grown
rocks beneath the spreading trees, or else lie
down upon tbe grassy bank of some shady
brook to sleep through the long noontide hours,
lulled to sweetr st dreams by the soo'hing song
of its murmuring waters! But happier still,
' are they who, with glad thankful
I, still toil patiently on, and have no time
for dreams. Earth’s noblest life is later.
Men moat work—even on days like this.
The muffled sounds of busy life without
commingling and blending into a soft, subdued
and gentle melody stealing up into my quiet
little room, falls tenderly upon my ears, send
ing through my heart a thrill of dreamy de
light that stirs the fountain of feeling to their
depth, and dashes their waters in spray upon
tbe eyelids. I wonder why all pure emotions
have something pensive about them; and all
the strong and true ones moisten the eyes
alike. Yet, it is so. Even
To speak her highest transports, Joy
Most Sadness' falt’ring tongue employ,
Steal Grief’s convulsive, quiveriDg sighs,
And borrow tears from Sorrow’s eyes.
Still melody from below pours itself into my
room. I listen, and fancy I can distinguish a
few of the particular notes. There is a wagon
till they ring again, and breathing in great
lungs full of delicious air. I wi nder what was
in that wagon. Some countryman doubtless
bringing the early produce of his garden to
market. Those noises do not beloug in the
city. Such a proud, free, gallant step was
never acquired except in tbe broad, green
pastures of the country.
A carriage that, it presses the gravel so
lightly. Some r.ch man parhapi, in his fine
turnout, taking a morning drive. Now, I’m
sorry lor him. Thirty minutes br sk walk was
what he wanted, but poor fellow! he did not
know it. He has an idea that health and hap
piness can be bought with money. Sorry for
yen, ola fellow. May you find out your mis
take before it is too late I

THE CHILL MASTER.
Chills and Fevers Completely
Conquered.
A Perfect and Absolute Cure for the
Worst Cases of Chills; Also a Fine
Bemedy for Sorethroat. Head
ache, Neuralgia, Malarial
Fever and General
Debility.
Twelve months of severe suffering from
chills and fevers left me, as I supposed, a
hopeless invalid. The best physicians and
every known remedy brought me no relief and
I decided to try an invent ion of my own, and
to my great astonishment it effected a com
plete and permanent cure. I then determined
to send the remedy abroad for suffering hu
manity, and wherever it has gone it has pro
duced marvellous results and brought back
countless expressions of gratitude from multi
tudes who have been soundly healed by its
magic touch. In Cincinnati I refused several
times to lake $5,000 for the patent, and have
since refiujjd various liberal offers for it.
It is indeed a thorough Master of Chills,
and will destroy them completely in the worst
malarial sections where no other known rem
edy will produce any effect upon them. It has
been found also to be a fine tonic for general
debility and delicate constitutions. It will
strengthen and build them up permanently.
It is a tine appetizer, excellent remedy for
neuralgia, sorethroat, remittent and intermit
tent fevers, and has been recommended for
dyspepsia.
Try it and be healed, and then tell it to your
Buffering neighbor.
If your druggist does not have it cn hand,
tell him to order it for you ' ou the under
signed. Mas. a. IX Boxlet.

Master in many cases of malarial fever, per

sufferers with chills and fever.

Editor Sunny South:
er of your valuable paper for the past year, and
haviDg Lever seen any communication theriia
from this section I thought it would not he out
of place should I send you. for publication, a
short letter giving a brief description of this
portion of the State—known as West Florida.
Before tbe completion of the Pensocola &
Atlantic railroad (now known as part of the
Louisville & Nashville system) a few years
since, we were to a certain extent shut out as re
garded a direct communication with other sec
tions of the State—more especially, however,
were the sections west of us the greater suffer
ers from this inconvenience. Until the com
pletion of the above named rosd persons going
from Pensacola and points near there to the
capital of the State, went by Montgomery and
thence to Eufaula in Alabama—thence down
the river (Chattahoochee) bv boat to Chatta
hoochee, and thence by rail to their place of
destination. Since that time this defect has
been remedied and we are placed in more di
rect communication with the ontside world.
Again, the building of eaid road has added
other attractions, and made improvements in
other ways through different portions of West
Florida. Along the line of said road where
the oountry was nothing more than a barren
waste, new towns and villages have sprung up;
thus adding thrift, life, enterprise and energy
to the hitherto dormant and inactive condition
of that section; and it will be but a few years
.when the attractions and advantages of this
part of Florida, particularly of this county,
will be known and felt. Then the long “Rip
Van Winkle”-1 Ike-sleep that has hitnerto per
vaded and heiu inis region in its embrace will
be broken and immigration will seek this new
field; and thin our magnificent resources will
be brought into notice and be fully developed
and utilized.
This coun'y is in the extreme northeastern
portion of West Florida, and is bounded on the
North by Alabama, and on tbe east by the
Chattahoochee river; and according to the cen
sus of 1885 had a population of 16,000. The
climate is generally mild, extremes of heat
and cold rarely ever occurring here. The soil
along the margins of the creeks and rivers, and
through the valley s, is productive; while most
of the pine lands—when properly tilled and
with good seasons—will yield good crips; and
any person who has the energy and will work
can make a good living.
Marianna, the county site, is a beautifu
town of about one thousand inhabitants, situ
ated on an elevation above the surrounding
country on the line of the P. & A. railroad,
about one mile west of the Chipola rivier and
near the center of the county. It is 136 miles
north and west lrom Tallahassee, and contains
fi7e churches, (three white and two colored,) a
High Schoal, presided over by Prof. Guyton,
formerly of Georgia, three drug stores and sev
eral general merchandise and dry goods estab
lishments, besides ocher business enterprises,
two newspapers ( West Florida Enquirer and
Times-Courier edited respectively by George
A. Baltzell and James S Gardner), nine law
yers and three physicians. The citizens are
noted for their kindness and hospitality. A
stock company has been formed and will soon
commence the erection of a large and commo
dious hotel, which will be ready for the winter
travel.
There are in the county several other thriv
ing villages and business places—namely:
Campbellton, Greenwood, Coitondale, Sneads,
Cypress and Neal’s Landing, all enjoying a
good trade.
_The people throughout the county are kind
and hospitable—being extremely so to stran
gers, and will give a hearty welcome to all
good and honest people who desire to come
here and make their ho nes among them, no
matter from what section of the Union they
hail. School and church facilities are gener
ally good, and there is hardly any portion of
the county but what the peop'e take an active
part in these matters and other public enter
prises The morals of the c maty are general
ly good and but little crime is committed; and
what there is the courts are quick to punish.
Within the county arc several natural curi
osities to attract the attention of the tourist
and pleasure seeker, among them the “Long
Moss Spring’’—commonly known as the “Blue
Spring”—one of the most beautiful the eye
ever looked upon, made doubly famous by the
late Mrs. Can;lint: Lee Heulz (vho resided in
this county for a number of years) in one of
her most interesting novels.
In conclusion I will say iliat to any and all
who desire to make their home among us, and
who come for the purpose of helping to devel
op o«r resources by the use of cepital tv d mus
cle, and to earn an honest living will be given
a hearty welcome. More anon,
Junius.
