This morning, Saturday 12th, I was
arousod by tho hoary rain showor, coming
with all the force of a tornado, seemingly.
Tho wind, however, soon spent its fury, but
the rain continued until everything wa3
thoroughly saturated. The admirnblo sys
tem of drainago, and the sandy soil of tho
Forest City soon carries off tho surplus
rainfall, and tho streets are in perfect or
der in a short time.
Business on tho bay is now reaching near
tho close of the season, and men are right
ing up their accounts and balancing their
ledgers to see what profits havo been reaped.
Tho cotton season has been a prosperous
one, as well as nn immense business.
Tho naval store traffic is assuming huge
proportions, and Savannah will soon rank
among tho prominent markets in this de
partment. Some of the new crop of tur
pentine has already reached the city, nnd

increased the receipts at this point so that
Savannah is one of tho best rico markets
in tho United States. The lumber trade is
very active, and tho demand at foreign
ports is so great that it is almost impossi
ble to supply it. The excellence of our
Georgia pine is known all over tho civilized
world, and tho demand for it is anpro-
cedented. In this port are to bo found
vessels of all nationalities loading with
this superb timber.
Tho biggest boom enjoyed just now by
this city is the immenso travel. Every day
crowds of strangers go surging through tho
streets, and fill to overflowing the exten
sive hotel accommodations, whilo thous
and pass on to Florida or on their return
to their Northern homes. Thero seems to
bo but littlo abatement of the rush to Flor
ida, while tho stream in the opposite direc
tion begins to assume considerable
proportions. Tho attractiveness of Savan
nah induces hundreds of people to stop
over several days. So that the hotels are
kept constantly full, and Colonel Harnett,
of the Screven Honso, told me that almost
every day they wore compelled to turn some
away lor want of room. Une of the great
wants of Savannah is a large hotel with all
the modern improvements. Such an in
vestment would undoubtedly pay handsome
dividends.
Tho good people here are now exorcisod
over tho approaching Masonic fair, which
is to open about tho 10th of April. This is
one of tlio admirable traits of the Savannah
people—they all unito in working for any-
tlting that is for Savannah’s interest. The
contributions havo already reached to such
an extent that no hail in the city is large
enough to hold the fair in, and an applica
tion nos been mndo to secure tho extensive
court in tho Oglethorpo barracks. This will
bo covered in and handsomely decorated.

that tho railroads will put tho fair down to

Such an arrangement would bring in
hundreds of people, whilo all parties would
be greatly benefited. At the Jaspor cen
tennial two years ago, this arrangement
carried to Savannah nearly 20,000 people.
April is tho most lovely month in tho year
in the Forest City. Her parks and flower
gardonswill bo in their highest state of
oveliness and attractiveness, and no doubt
hundreds will avail themselves of this op
portunity to visit this charming seaport.
I took a walk out among tbe newly im
proved localities. Many splendid resi
dences have recently gone up, while more
humble buildings for rent are to be seen
in almost every direction from tho Park
extension.

I leave to-night for homo by way of Jos-
np. The Savannah, Florida & Western
railroad is doing more business than tA any
former season. As wo passed off from tlie
depot, I saw Col. H, B. Plant, the president,
and CoL H. S. Haines standing on the plat
form, with tho most complacent counten
ances and twinkling eyes as the overcrowd
ed train ami groaning engine moved away
with its immense burdens. They ought to
bo satisfied.
At Jesup comes tho rush and scrambling
for something to eat. It is strange thnt
people decently reared will so far forget all
propriety and sense, and rave and pitch
around in an eating house. There were
over one hundred at the tablo, and Mr*.
Remington furnishes a nice table, abun
dantly supplied and well cooked, but some
of the passengers would annov her by call
ing for servants—one wanted black tea,
green tea, ioed milk, iced tea, ami a num
ber of other things not within the reach or
the ability of tlie good lady to provide.
Most of this noise and confusion was made
by puriies who have no, or but few, servanie
at home. “All ’iiboaru,” says Sol Frinks,

Out of the long list of those that are suf
fering from tho “typo-us fever” not one of
these “knights of the quill” that dwell with
enthusiasm upon Florida have conde
scended to give our LakeJcssup country
even a passing notice. In view of this fact
it may be well for the writer to furnish your
oxoellout paper what few items of news
our settlement may afford.
Wo have a delightful country, situated
upon the southern shore of Lake Jossup,
which is an expansion of the 8L John’s
river, and is fifteen miles long by five wide.
Tho river being navigable for large boats
this high up (over 200 miles), wo enjoy the
benefits of cheap transportation. Our cli
mate is entirely free from extreme temper-
ntnrivA fa.a iLL, loot —tnfor has determined
beyond the possibilities of a doubt; for,
during the sovercst cold here, tomato
blooms were uninjured in opon air. During
the summer we have tho sea breeze to
relievo tho extreme heat, which, otherwise,
would be intolerable.
There has been quite a boom in the
orange business hero this season, and groves
in all stages of cultivation, as well as lands
adapted to the citrus family and semi-
tropical frnits generally, have advanced to
a very gratifying oxtent. Quito a largo
number of Northerners have bought and
improved lands in our midst, nnd are con
stantly bringing in others of their county-
men who are generally men of means,
which adds largely to the wealth and does
no small sliare toward the rapid settling up
of our neighborhood. Next w.nter we havo
every reason to hope for a more lively
boom than ever, for the “sigus of the
times” are indeed favorable.
The wido-sproad damage resulting from
tho intense severity of tho winter on tho
lower SL Johns will necessarily direct the
tide of emigration farther south than has
boon tho tendency heretofore. Then, too,
there is strong reason to hope for the build
ing of the much talked of railroad that is
to bo started from Sanford and
carried to some point on Indian
river. It is to be hoped that the men of
moans in our community will manifest the
proper appreciation of the advantages that
such a road will afford us, and offer every
inducement in their power to procure it.
Otherwise, some other section will outstrip
us nnd get the road.
Daring the dry spell of several weeks a
good joke was told on one of our neighbors
who is a mill owner. It is said that his wa
ter was so low at one time that whenever
tho terrapins crawled out of his pond to
sun themselves, Ills head of wator was so
much diminished that he was compelled to
hire a man to keep guard on tho bonks to
keep the animals m liquid bounds.
We had very destructive fires during the
dry spell, which swept nway any quantity of
fencing. This malicious custom of setting
fire out in the pine forest should be put
down.
^ Mucli is being said of the draining of tlio
Everglades, plu various ideas are advanced
as to the result.

thus boldly meddle with nature, but we

Perry, Ga., March 12.—Our commu
nity was startled by the alarm of fire yes
terday between one and two o'clock, p.
m., which proved to be an out-building on
the place Mr. John R. Cook. Oar negro
firemen were promptly on the spot and
rendered most efficient service. The
flames soon communicated to a provision
house near the dwelling, which at one
time was considered in so much dangei
that the citizens, including ladies, com
menced removing furniture. The house
was still further guarded by wet blankets.
Tbe water was supplied in part by ladiea
who rushed to the neighboring wells aud
worked tbe windlasses with their own
tender bauds to furnish the carriers who
bore it to the scene.
The fire originated in an attempt of Mr.
Cook s to burn off some grass near the
-ini being high, the flames
soon got beyond coniTui. “W. nnnt Z,

Cochran, March J4.—Bunker HU1,
about five miles east of our town, came very
near being the scene of another accidental
killing yesterday. From what we coaid
learn, aome negroes were tampering with
- f tw( — - -
a pistol, when It went off, the ball linking
one of them in the neck on what we gen
erally term Adam’s apple, glancing to the
right, and lodging above the main artery.
It was, however, soon extracted by one of
our young physicians, Dr. P. L. Hudson,
who happened to pass that way soon after
tbe occurrence. At last accounts the man
was doing well. We could not learn the
names of the parties. We are having a
great deal of sickness for the last few days ;
none, however, ot a serious nature, mostly
from colds; some, relapses from measles.
Business is considerably improving, and
the bright, cheerful faces of our merchants
are a sure indication of tbe fact that they
have lost that long-faced, restless look tboy
had somo time back. We had with us
yesterday that good man, Dr. Payne, agent
of the Orphan Home of your city. He
preached us one of those good sermocs,
which was listened to by a good congrega
tion, but, we are sorry to say, not a very
liberal one—at least, not so yesterday. He
is doing a good work, which very few men
in Georgia could accomplish, and should
be aided from every purse. Enviable will
be hU crown in tlie promised future.

Pending an attachment suit, a garnish

Jackson, C. J.—1. Where au amend

but no order appears allowing it, it was
not too late to move to dismiss such
amendment at the hearing of the case.
2. Where a bill for injunction and for
other purposes was filed under oath, it
.could not be amended by striking oateve-
ery thing between tlie names of parties and
the prayer for subpoena, and inserting en
tirely new matter.
(a) The original bill being by a Wife
who alleged that she had bought property

by tho vender, that she has paid iu full
value, and praying that the vender be re-

that her husband bought the land for
himself, but used money belonging to her
with the knowledge of the vendor, and
praying that she be reimbursed. Such an
amendment introduced a new cause of
action.
3. While technically there is no such
thing as a non-suit iu an equity cause, yet
as this bill would properly have been dis
