But by chance one day the pretty name was sung, and bas lived everslnoe, making the hearts of multitudes beat faster, and bringing tears to the eyes of borne longing ones. The old Suwanee hss beon born to greatness and will for ever live in the mind of man as a beauti ful “song” river. Thousands of tourists for years past have flooded Florida, making for Jack sonville os tho Mecoa of the South's pleasure land, and influenced by hotel guides have spout tbelr time in the southern portion of the state and over on the coast, never dreaming of the most picturesque stream of all that semi-tropic land. But the restless spirit of the hunter ever impelling him on to new discoveries, has led him to explore the famous stream in search of the alli gator and the feathered tribe. The tide of tourist travel to the Suwanee banks has been steadily on the increase for the past two years; ’tis hero that tho invalid finds bubbling from the river’s rocky bed health giving springs, and an at mosphere as buoyant and grateful as the air'of the,Sierras. If you wish to realize its beauties, however, you must not stop at the resorts scattered on its banks; one roust navi gate its dark brown waters. Like all noted bodies, this quiet stream has Ita “belle,” the neat little baek-wheel steamer “Belle of the Suwanee,” plying between Lurayvllle and Cedar Keys. This trip is full of interest to the travel er—the summer sunshine In mid-winter making one feel like nature bad fashion ed the day for him alone, the wonderful formations of rock along tho high banks, tho grotesque figures formed by the smooth current of this stream as it washes away tho sandstone, the cavos and grottoes of white, the o’er-bangiug trees dressed in fancy costumes of Span ish moss and then, too, the contrasted beauty of gardens of wild roses, violets and grassos on the opposite bank; ever on the lookout for an alligator, so often seen taking his morning sun bath on some fallen log, the oraneso gorgeous in plumage as it seeks some high point of observation from the neighboring lagoon, Even the steamer itself as it makes Ita landings, the shouts and songs of the negro deck bands, all of the little things whioh attract the eye and ear for a mo ment leaving one better pleased with himself and the world around him; all of these make the trip seem a short one as you draw near its end and find your self among the cedar treos and making for the oldest seaport town on the east coast of the gulf, Cedar Keys. Yes, should you go to Florida take the adviee of an old traveler, do not forget the home of the “old folks.” Take trip on the "Belle of Suwanee,” and day’s ride will give you thoughts never to be forgotten, the old song wilt have for you a new and brighter interest, and when tho visions of happiness come, somehow you will think of the quiet, peaceful day away down on the Su- waneo.

He had been down to turnover some money oolleoted from several negroes, some of them living in Sumter and some inJIMacon county. In the division he had paid one of them ten dollars too muoh, but had no Idea which one had reeelved the overplus. He considered the money as good as lost, but mentioned it to one of the party who happened to be returning on the same train. “Don’t worry boss,’’ [said the fellow, “I know every one of them niggers, they are honest, and I tell you that the money will be returned just as soon as one of them finds he bas it.” Sure enough, a letter came next day from J. W. Russell, of Amerious, one o' the par ties, stating that in counting his money he had discovered that he was ten dol lars ahead and asking Mr. Greer If be had not made a mistake In counting. The Ordinary explained that be had and sent an addressed envelope for its re turn.
