All the above facts were despondence so your readers may have the whole trip. 1 have a word more about Palatka, Fla., from which point I wrote you last. I saw a boat launched while at Palat ka, to run from that place up the St. John’s and Ocklewaha to Silver Springs, in Mari on county, a distance of 130 miles. 1 made the acquaintance of Col. Pelot, of Alachua county, while at Palatka, who is United States Agent for the protection of the public lands in Florida. The Col. said that Gov. Broom, of Florida, told him that during the canvass for the Presiden cy, when Fremont was running, that Gov. Wise, of Virginia, told him that he had 100,000 men ready to march immediately to Washington and take the Capital, if Fremont had been elected. Suppose a black Republican is elected next time, will any Governor of the South be so prepared ? Any man from Cherokee Geo.', or any hill country, visiting Florida at this season of the year, cannot believe otherwise than that the countiy is sickly, notwithstand ing the most of the citizens tell him to the contrary. The dreary look, the long moss from two to ten or fifteen feet long, hang ing from the limbs of the trees, the flat appearance of the countiy, &c., all tend to produce the same impression. Yet, to visit the State late in the fall, a man might like it so well that he would risk the sum mer, as the winter is so pleasant. At Palatka dry heart pine is sold to the steamboats at $3.50 per cord, which is quite a profitable business. There arc some saw mills at this point, one of which cost $22,000 and sold a few years ago at $6,000, and would now sell for the same or less. Sour oranges are plenty at this point and sweet ones are raised to some extent. 1 ( saw no apple trees in this locality. Peach trees do tolerably well. Watermelons grow pretty well here, but are not so good as farther up the countiy, as they are apt to take second growth. On the 10th 1 left Palatka for Ocala and made the trip in about 13 hours—a distance of 56 miles: stage passage seven dollars. I passed the Orange Springs, 25 miles from Palatka, which arc very strong sulphur springs, so much so that one can smell them at a considerable distance. Invalids resort thither to bathe for their health. The country from Palatka to O- cala is generally a very sandy pine coun try, to within a few miles of Ocala. There is considerable pretty fair land in Marion county and some very good, vet not any that is better than some of the lands in Cass or Gordon. It will produce Sea Island Cotton better, but when that is said all is said, as to its superiority.—■ Poor men who wish land and have but two or three hundred dollars, might buy some ofcthc pine land at from $1 to $1.25 per acre, and make a living on it a few years. It is said that the lands do not last so well as was supposed originally. The Ilatnmoc land is generally good, as it is clay land, with oak, hickory, Magno lia, &c., growing thereon, and is usually selected first by emigrants, yet it does not last better than sandy land sometimes. I saw some excellent corn and cotton grown on such land between Ocala and Silver Springs. These Springs are 6 miles from Ocala, and are said to be from 15 to 70 feet deep. The steamboats come up into the head of the Springs, unload and turn round and return. The Spring branch runs but a few miles before it runs into Ocklewaha River and constitutes the prin cipal part of the river. The Springs are only about two months to that point.— The land around Gainesville, and between that place and Fcrnandina, is thin pine land. It is only 98 miles from Gainesville to Fcrnandina by rail road. I learned that the.st cam saw mill, of Mr. Moody of Jack sonville, was destroyed by fire on the 12th. This is the tenth time it has been set on tire. I learned in Jacksonville that Mr. Moody was a very clever man. His mill was said to be too near one of the hotels, and too far in town, but this is no reason that a man should be ruined. I have always understood that negroes could not handle mail matter, but in this country they deliver and receive the mails. Occasional!}- a place may be seen where the ground has sunk down to a considera-1 ble distance, sometimes covering up the trees growing thereon. I intended to have brought some of the Cabbage Palmetto up with me, but passed through the country where it mostly grows before I knew it. The reason it is called Cabbage Palmetto, is that the bud is about as good to eat as a cabbage. Sometimes the bears cut out and eat the buds which arc situated about in the centre of the tuft which grows about the top and constitutes all the limbs and leaves of the tree, even if it be forty or fifty feet high. There arc many things of interest in the State to one who has never been so far South. No man can form a proper esti mate of Florida from the reports of others. AH who have any inclination to go there to live, should first visit the State anil re main as long as possible, in order to see the different seasons. If visited in the win ter almost any one would like it, to some- extent, but visited in other seasons, either the dry in April and May, or the wet in June, July and August, or the most sick ly in September, Ac., it is not so likely that persons from the up country would be pleased so well. Florida has more pha- told me by Col. Lamar. No place appeared so much like making plenty of wheat and corn as the Cherokee country. The distance from Cassville, by Atlan ta, West Point, Columbus, Macon, Griffin, Atlanta, again to Augusta, is 568 miles, and the tickets $21.60. DISTAUCES AND TICKETS.

Messrs. Editors : Your paper has done much to suppress the thieving operations of the various Lottery Swindles and Swin dlers in Georgia, for which the honest portion of the people hold, and will ever hold you in grateful remembrance. Let me explain you the manner in which the ignorant are duped out of their money without knowing it; for the secret is only known to those who see behind the curtaius. It is this: For instance, McKinney & Co., Lottery dealers, in Sa vannah, send out their schemes and Tick ets all over the country, and advertise that on a certain, day a drawing will come off in presence of sworn Commissioners —Capital Prize $50,000, to $60,000 or per haps $70,000. (I |The Scheme informs the “green ones” that all the numbers from 1 up to 50,000, inclusive, are placed in one wiieel and the Prize Tickets in another wheel. These wheels are revolved, and the ticket is drawn out of the wheel of tickets and a ticket out of the wheel of Prizes, and a note made by the Commissioners at the time, so that, if ticket No. 1480 is drawn times a ** and then walked home - 0n from the wheel of tickets and a ticket is oneLords Da Y ,nornin - as bc " alked Pate of the Apostles.

Madame McMahon. A Paris letter says :—The story about faintings which is going the round of the papers is not exact. It was not Madame McMahon alone who fainted. An eye witness has recounted the scene. The dispatch was brought to the Lady Regent. It was in ciphers as usual—ciphers of which the imperial lady alone has the key. It was the longest which has ever been transmitted by the electric telegraph, and has been registered as such ; and as the Empress proceeded in her deciphering the emotion and dread grew greater at each word, until completely overpowered by the agitation of the moment, the dread of what was to come, the eagerness and terror evinced by the ladies present to learn the contents of the dispatch, all of them personally interested through near and dear relations in the solution of the ciphers, she sank back in a swoon, grasp- drawn from the wheel of Prizes with $60,000 printed on it, then ticket No. 1480 is entitled to $60,000! So far, all seems fair cnongli; but here is the rub, which has rubbed the last dollar out of many a poor man’s pocket: The ticket dealers— that is the managers, know precisely what particular numbers they have sold, in any given or appointed drawing, and in placing the 50,000 tickets in the ticket wheel, they take care not to put in the numbers of the tickets they hate throien upon the market! To illustrate my mean ing, and show up the villainy more plain ly, I will give an example: Mr. J. W. Miller, (who, for all I know, is a worthy man,) is the Agent of McKinney & Co., of Savannah, for the sale of tickets in the City of Atlanta. McKinney & Co., send to him a bundle of tickets, the numbers of which they keep an exact account of in their office. We will suppose that tick- along, meditating on his sermons for the day, he met the parish priest. “Well, -,” said his reverence, “I suppose you are on your way to preach ing again ?” “Yes, sir,” was the modest reply of the humble minister. “It is high time Government took up this subject, and put a stop to this travel ing preaching.” “ They will have rather hard work, sir, replied the imperturablc minister. “I am not very sure of that,” rejoined the priest, “at any rate I will see wheth er I cannot stop you myself.” “I judge,” said the worthy man, “you will find it more difficult than you sup pose. Jude was shot to death with arrows. Simeon Zolotcs was crucified in Per sia. Matthias was first stoned and then be headed. Peter was crucified with his head down wards. Paul the last and chief of the apostles, also died by violence. We find the above floating about in our exbanges, and think we may have pub lished it in the Post, in years gone bv— perhaps two or three times. Rut, what a story it tells ! and how vividly it pic tures to us the persecutions which assail ed Christianity in its infancy, Christ him self was crucified between two thieves.— He had been dead but a short time, when Stephen was stoned to death crying out, as hisend approached, “Lord Jusus receive stop my preaching, but there are three ways to stop yours.” “What, fellow, do you mean by that ?” asked his reverence, in a towering pas- ets Nos. 5,550, 3,167, 8,001 2,900 and ' sion - ses than any county I have ever seen.— ing in her closed hand the pape r upon There is something very desirable about which were traced the figures whose hidden it, and yet there is something very disa greeable to many. Some men would be pleased with it, while others would be very much displeased. What I have writ ten is in reference to East Florida only, as I did not travel over Middle nor West Florida, and over but few counties in East Florida. The only way to know the State is to see it. The State of Florida gives the rail road companies alternate sections of land for 6 miles, and the United States give altern ate sections for the balance of alternate sections to 15 miles. There is to be a ca nal cut in a very important part of the State, for which purpose the State gives 50,000 acres of land, $40,000 in money and $300,000 in State bonds, payable semian nually at 8 per cent, for thirty years, and then the principal to be paid. If under these circumstances and donations, this State cannot build rail roads and cut ca nals, what State can ? After all, will they meaning conveyed sentences of despair to so many. It is well known that swoon ing, like weeping, is catching by contact, one by one the ladies gave way to the sen sation, and the drawing room at St. Cloud soon resembled the scene in the Sleeping Beauty in the Wood. Madame McMahon, who has been quoted as the only one to whom the accident happened, was, on the contrary, the first to whom consciousness returned, and soon it was to learn the high fortune to which her husband had attained, and the glory he had earned at Magenta. Good Society. It should be the aim of every young man to go into good society. We do not mean the rich, the proud, and the fash ionable, but the society of the wise, the intelligent and good. Where you find men that konw more than you do, and from whose conversation one can gain 4,350, are those sent to Mr. Miller to be disposed of in Atlanta. Well, in placing the 50,000 in the ticket wheel, in Savan nah, the day of drawing, McKinney & Co., knowing what numbers they have sent to Mr. Miller, take care that tickets Nos. 5, 550, 3,167, 8,001, 2,600 and 4,350 are not put in, and if not put in the wheel, how in the name of all that is honest and com mon sense can those tickets be drawn out ? The thing is so plain—such a palpable fraud, that it is a wonder to me the peo ple of cities in which these thieving shops are located do not rise up and abate them as a nuisance at once. This mode of swindling the ignorant people out of their hard earnings is appli cable to the “single number” Lotteries, or those that pretend to be drawn on what is called the “Havana Plan of Single numbers.” As to the three number, or combination Lotteries, a man has the same chance to be struck by lightning, when the heavens are not overcast with a cloud, as to draw a prize out of one of them ; and the identical swindle can be perpetra ted with them as with the single number Lottery Schemes. The Commissioners who certify to the my spirit.” The persecutions were kept Indeed, there is hut one way to j up until the Apostles, whose names are given above, had all received their por tion. In after times, so common had martyrdom become, that the Fathers cour ted it as adding to the brightness of the crowns they should wear in the eternal world. It is remarkable that Christ predicted to his disciples that they would receive precisely this kind of treatment He did not promise them that they should in crease in numbers and strength, and con trol earthly governments. He did not “Why, sir,” replied the little preacher, with most provoking coolness, “why, sir, there is but one way of stopping my preach ing, that is, by cutting my tongue out.— And there are three ways to stop yours— for take your book from you, and you can't ; take your gown from you, and fall and winter by their condition. To such an extent was this, that the herders with the command that Judge C. accom panied, could not hc .induced to keep the herds out at night. No doubt team sters and discharged soldiers wending their way to California most of whom, no doubt, had been killed by the Indi ans, in pursuance of the example set them by their Mormon allies in the Moun tain meadows massacre, and who they see act impertinently and with impunity in the matter. Atrocities toj horrible to he related, and which seemed to shock the brute sav ages themselves, arc related by persons who claim to have been compelled to join in that massacre. The number of per sons in train was about one hundred and forty—seventeen small children alone are saved. The property alone amounting from $60,000 to $80,000, counting 700 cattle, horses and mules, some very fine stock, and forty wagons and carriages.— The personal effects were taken to the tithing office in Cedar City, and there sold out. Many of the clothes stripped from the murdered persons, were piled in a room in the tithing office, and not sell ing readily on account of being filled with blood, were allowed to remain in that con dition until the room has become so much scented with it that it is very offensive to stay in.
