Newspaper Page Text(Cftwmicle and jjStnfiiytl WEDNESDAY AUGUST 16. 1876. STATE HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY. Macon, Ga., Jnly 7tb, 1876. Drab Sib—The necessity of eneonrag iog the fruit producing interests of Georgia, as well os other branches of horticulture, has become gradually more apparent, especially since the fast in creasing demands for these products have opened a rich Rod wide field for their productions. Our State has un surpassed resources fr the cultivation of fruits, but for the want of proper en couragement, fruit growing has not been developed as rapidly as its importance requires. The proper encouragement ami impulse can only be arrived at by the combined action of those who have the welfare of this branch of husbandry at head, and are animated solely with an honest desire to accomplish good. Men who are interested in promoting horticulture from sincere love of its pursuit and free from selfish motives can accomplish the deerred result. With the objects in view, a charter had been regularly obtained through the Courts, and in conformity with its pro visions, the undersigned as charter members of the Georgia State Horticul tural Society, beg to notify yon that a meeting will be held at Macon, on the 16th and 17th days of Angust, 1876, for the purpose of permanently organizing said society under ssid charter, by elec tion of officers, adopting constitution and by laws, ect., for the future govern ment of the same, and also at that time to make the best display of borticnlnral products the short time allowed will per mit. - m.mmm Arrangement! for a reduction of fare have been made with the various rail roads of the State.

How They Dress at the Spa.—Young women who have never been to Saratoga seem to imagine that some special dis pensation in regard to clothes is required before a foot can be set upon the sacred ground. Speoial costumes, speoial hats, special para sols, a special outfit in short, must be procured, adapted to no other time, place or emergency. This, however, is not at all necessary. Almost anything that will do to wear auywbere can be worn in Saratoga. The style and ckarao ter of your “washing” is, much more than the wearing of silk, the test of wealth and position in Saratoga. Everybody has a silk dress aud a suit of some kind or other, aud can parade the two more or less during a short stay at the hotel. But everybody is not in possession of lovely lawus and cambrics and French percales and nainsooks and thiuner Frenoli muslins, beautified with fine plated flonnees and rnffies aud rib bous and embroidery, aud every ono cannot afford to wear them continually, with exquisite underwear and laces and shoes to match. If you see a -woman parading up aud dowu with a long-tailed silk dress on aud somewhat scauty lingerie aud accessories, and another with a dress 25 cents peryard, but fresh, and which costs her from $3 to $5 every time she gets it “doue up,” you are safe in assuming the silk dress to be the only one of the kind in the wearer’s posses sion and the length of her purse to be in inverse proportion to the length of her traiD, while ten to oue the 25 cent gowu will be worn by the wife of a billionaiie. Still the e is beautiful dressing and costly dresiug. The Uuited States Hotel ia trying hard to restore the old regime, and even the state and ceremony and magnificent toilets of years and years ago, when the queeus of Southern society flourished aud swept through its stately halls. But it will not do; the time lias gone by; modern women are too aotive, and hare too many other things to do—to dress five times in the day; und they uo longer take from seven to tweuty trunks; one or two suffice.— From Julia July's Saratoga Correspondsce . Novel Indian Trophiks.—A friend of the famous Buffalo Bill, residing in Rochester, has just received from the seat of the Indian war a collection of novel trophiea, including the scalp of the Cheyenne warrior, Yellow Hand, who was slain by tbe intrepid Buffalo Bill in a hand-to-hand ooufliot. Bill, it seems, was in pretty close quarters in the combat with Yellow Ilaud, but by dint of his superior skill aud undaunted bravery laid his victim low. He now seuds to his friend the spoils of his vic tory, which iuveutory as follows: The scalp of the brave, bridle, blanket, whip. l>owie knile, head dress, girdle, shield. To the latte* is suspended several In dian scalps, but uo white scalps, show ing that Yellow Hand had not killed any whites, but had confined his operations to hostile tribes of savages. Yeilow Hand’s scalp consists of a piece of skin about three inches square, to which ad heres a switch of straight jet black hair, nearly two feet long. This is neatly braided to the tip, and is more orna mental than useful. The head dress re ferred to and its appendages constitute the chief ornament of the warrior. It oonaista of a strip of limber buffalo skin five or six inches wide and as many feet long, set as olosa as they can stand with eagle feathers. There must have been several of the national birds strip ped of their plumage to make up this piece of savsge finery. On the tips of many of the feathers are locks of scm kind” of hair, some of it fine enough to be human. It is attached to the feath by a cement. — Rochester Democrat and Chronicle. A Ussful Machine.— We saw in ope-, ration at the plantation of Mr. W. R. Walton,yesterday, the celebrated thresh ing machine manufactured by theGeiser manufacturing company, for which Messrs. Doziar A Walton are the agents. The machine threshes, fans and sacks the grain at the rate of one bushel and a half per minute, running by horse power, aad gives entire satisfaction. It can be seen and tested where it is now in operation, at Mr. Walton's plantation. Death of Mb. Henry Jansen.— Mr. Henry Jansen who accidently shot him self last Monday evening, died yester day between one and two o’clock. Clay connty wants Col. Thomas Har deman for Senator in place of Hon. Thomas N. Norwood. During tbe past six months there have been 113 failnres in Georgia, with lia bilities amounting to $2,747,591. In is estimated that there were 1,200 visitors in Carnesville on last Tuesday. Prof. Hal wick walked his rope, which was stretched some thirty feet from the ground. Died: Mr. W. W. Pettit, one of the roost venerable residents of Macon, died Sunday morning, the 6th instant, at 1:30 a. m., in the 74tb year of nis age. He was the father of Mr. G.sß. Pettit, the well known contractor and builder gl this city. * SOUTH gAROMU r ) PALMETTO 'nkVb LEAVE*. Heavy rains, injnring the crops, are reported in Horry. Fairview Township, Greenville, has voted against primary elections: Governor Chamberlain has refused to interpoee his clemency in behalf of Jerry Coleman, the Abbeville murderer. He will be hung on Friday, August the 18ch. The tag Bull River as she left the wharf at Oonwayboro', last Saturday, wrung off her shaft, and part of her machinery has been sent to Wilmington for repairs. The Yonng Men’s Christian Associa tion of Barnwell will give an entertain ment our the 22d of Angust, the proceeds of which are to be tamed over to the County Democratic Club. This campaign is the first since the war that the Democratic party has at tempted anything like regular organiza tion, and if they do fail to carry things tbroagh, they will at least die game in the attempt. Mr. A. A. Foster, acting clerk of council of Greenville, lost, unaccounta bly, his pocket book, containing sixty dollars, on Saturday last, while attend ing the mayor’s matinee. Some sharp rogues, then, must be in Greenville. Chamberlain is making speeches all over the State, trying to get the renom l nation for Governor. It is supposed that Newberry will confe in his route, und a big demonstration will doubtless take place among his odoriferous fol lowers. Grasshoppers are going for the cotton in Spartanbnrg, and Greenville counties, and lice are literally sucking it to death in Marion county. The recent rains have also produced rust, which will materially injure the erop prospect in the latter conuty. Troops Needed, the negro party iD Abbeville oonnty have a majority of iwo thousand votes; they have also the mili tia, armed with loading rifles, fixed ammunition, and bayonets, and yet “prominent Republicans run off to their master in Columbia and report that the election will be lost to their party with out United States troops. We think Grant and Chamberlain had better send one-half the troops io the South to pre served their party, and the other half might as well be sent to the Black Hills, to be scalped by the Indians. Considerable excitement exists in the Bnford’s Bridge neighborhood, Barn well, because Messrs. Blackwood A Sweat have determined to establish a liquor store there. A number of citizens, male and female, have resolved “That we will not associate with, invite to our homes, or patronize, in any shape or form, any person or persons who may undertake to erect or establish at Bu ford’s Bridge, or in the neighborhood, any kind of liquor shop for the purpose of trafficking in intoxicating drinks.” Messrs. Blackwood & Sweat express a determination to sell regardless of op position. HEAR AND ALIVE. An Insane Patient Who ia Burled, and After ward Confronts Ilia Father. [Philadelphia Times ] Edwin L. Hartley, eighteen years of age, the son of George W. Hartley, an ex-police officer, residing at 613 South Tenth street, has for some time past been confined in the department for the insane of the Philadelphia Hospital, he being afflicted with softening of the brain. On Friday of last week a tele graphic dispatch informed Mr. Hartley that his unfortunate son was dead. He hastened to the hospital, but found that the corpse had been already coffined, and that decomposition had set in so rapidly that the hospital authorities had ordered that the box be not opened.— The death was regularly announced in the obituary columns of the various newspapers, but none of the Hartley family, from the time of the death, looked upon the face of the dead boy. The funeral took place from the Tenth street residence, proceeding to Mount Moriah Cemetery, the friends of the family witnessing the interment and sympathizing deeply with their grief. On the following day Mr. Hartley visited Ward No. 1, at the hospital”, where his son had been confined, for the purpose of obtaining some trifling articles. Imagine his astonishment when the face of his dead boy confronted him. 1c was uo spiritual phenomenon, however, but a solid, substantial real ity. It was his own son, alive and in excellent physical health and spirits. The investigation instituted developed the fact that a young man named Hart zell, afflicted with softening of the brain, and having a resemblance to yonng Hartley, had been confined in the department for the insane, and he it was who was moulding away beneath the shaded lawns of Mount Moriah. — Hartzell has relations residing at Sec oud street and Girard avenue, who claim that as the hospital authorities were to blame for the mistake they are liable for the expenses of the funeral.

A Hotel Runner’s Mistake.—Quite an amusing incident occurred at the de pot at Colorado Springs, on the arrival of the train from Denver, having on board delegates to the Republican cau cus at Manitou. Among their number was Col. Enos Hopkins, father of Major Hopkins, proprietor of the Manitou House, who, on his alighting on the platform, was accosted by a friend in quiring if he was going to Maniton. Not hearing the colonel answer, he made the remark that the Cliff Honse was the best hotel in Manitou and that he had better stop there. The runner of the Manitou Mansions, standing near and taking exceptions to the remark, approached the old gentleman and pre sented the card of his house, repre senting that it was the only first-class house iu the place, etc. The major, see ing the runners working with his father and alway* in for fun, approached the old gentleman and presented the card of the Manitou House, and, going through the formula that hotel runners indqjge in, wound up with the remark that he had hiz buggy over, and that be oonld ride to Manitou with him. Tbe man I from the Mansion*, not to be outbid by the major, said he would provide a buggy, and could assure the delegate that better accommodations would be had at his house. The major, after see ing the sport and the hesitancy of tbe old gentleman, who was taking mail the fun, approached, and said that if he would go over with him he would c’ alk his hat as long as he would remain. This was too much for the opposition run ner—he weakened right there, and said that was further than his instructions went. He found out his mistake the next day, and Hie boys are having tbe benefit of it now.— Denver {Col.) Tri bum. FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. OLLA PODKIDA. Gossip—Tbe Servo-Tnrkish War.

The Princess of Ser via has issued an appeal for volunteers to enter the legion of horse named after herself. It is composed mainly of for eigners, and is rapidly filling up. It has transpired that the Emperors of Russia and Austria agreed, at the Reichstadt meeting, that the Porte might take guaran tees against Servia again assaulting Tnrkey, but the Turks may never occu py a Servian town. There is a rumor afloat that Austria is prepared to pre vent the Turks eutering Belgrade. It is probably true. The Powers have deter mi ed not to consent to the deposition of Prince Miian. The- report that Dis raeli will be elevated to the peerage is confirmed. The Turks continue the massacres fn Bosnia. The situation at Seymour is unchang ed.

London, August 12.—The Daily News to-day says: For more than one session it has been manifested that the task of leading the House of Commons was growing too burdensome for the Prime Minister, who never spared himself when public duty demanded his time and energies. His accession to the Peer age is not so much a promotion as a de velopment, or rather the crown of a ca reer. Political consequences may not at once unfold themselves. Disraeli withdraws from the House of Commons at the close of a session in which he has been the centre, in strong personal dis cussions, but it cannot be doubted that his removal was contemplated before these discussions could be foreseen. The transfer of the leadership of the House of Commons, is au event far too important to staud alone. Before long, further changes must take place to bring the relationship of the Ministers for one another in harmony with the new state of things, In his new position, the Earl of Beaconsfield will be able still to serve as the bond of bis party, and without efforts beyond his strength to aid it with experience acquired, and sagacity trained in a loDg aud arduous political life. Englishmen, irrespective of party, will join in wish, with his new position, the Prime Minister may find that serene ana dignified repose which is a befitting rewaid for his public ser vices.

Thirty thousand Bulga rians, principally old men aud women, it is stated have taken refuge in Servia.

Mia Fm Lands, wo nonnw IN ORANGE COUNTY, WITHIN Three Miles of Railroad Transpor tation. Lands Unsurpassed For MTS aMFABHING. Office South Florida Land Agency, 1 Fort Mason, Orange County, Florida, j THE undersigned have entered into a busi ness arrangement for the purpose of lo cating settlers on the publio lauds (either United States or State) in this and adjoining counties. Located in the most delightful portions of Orange county, in a section of territory con ceded by all to be the best adapted to the cul ture of the orange and kindred fruits, and thoroughly acquainted with allthe land-in this vicinity, we are better able to give information concerning the lands still vaoant than any others engaged in the land business in this oounty. The railroad now in course of construction connecting the St. John’s river at Lake George with Lakeß Harris, Eustis, Griffin, Dora and the other headwater lakes of the Oclawaha river, will furnish all the surrounding lands with ample transportation facilities and place settlers within easy distance of the Northern and Eastern markets. THE CLIMATIC ADVANTAGES Of this section of territory are so well known as scarcely to need recapitulation. Vegetables and tropical fruits qan he grown throughout the year without danger from oold. 'I he severest frosts of this lake region do not in jure vegetation, as was proven daring the past Winter, when the frosts killed early vegetables at considerable distances south of us and left this region untouohed— not a blade of grass being injured. HOMESTEADS NEAR THE BAILROAD. We are now prepared to locate settlers on the publio landß in close proximity to the railroad. One of the undersigned (Mr. John S. Banks) has just completed a thorough survey of a large tract of United States lands, situated at from three to six wiles distance from the rail road. These lands are not only admirably adapted to the oulture of oranges, but are also excellent for farming purposes, and can be easily brought into cultivation, the old settlers in the vioimty raising an abundant supply of corn, cotton, sugar, eto., upon them. GET A HOMESTEAD NOW, Parties who propose settling in Florida will find it greatly to their advantage to obtain their homesteads during the Summer months, and thus avoid the rush of the Fall months. Those desiring to looate near the railroad will obtain ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY ACRES FKEE if their entry is made before the completion of the road. After its oompletion, which will be some time this coming Fall, they will not be per mitted toeoter more than eighty acres. Persons locating during the Summer can also get their lands in read.ness for a crop of early vege tables next Winter, and thus be enabled to re alize a profit from the lands immediately. We are now PREPARED TO LOCATE SETTLERS, Singly or in colonies, at moderate rates, and in every case we guarantee oomplete satisfaction. No lands will be located by us until one of us have thoroughly surveyed them, and in all cases our patrons shall be given the best tracts of whioh we have any knowledge, without favoritism or partiality being Bhown to any one. STATE LANDB. We are also prepared to locate, survey and purchase any desired quantity of State lands, and will perform this work either for a speci fied prioe iu money or for an agreed upon per centum of land. We now have some choioe pieoes cf State land marked out on our maps, which have been surveyed by us, and which are among the best lands in this Stati. FURTHER DETAILS Can be obtained by addressing (with stamp en closed for reply) the undersigned. Prompt at tention given to all letters. Address BANKS A ST. CIAIR-ABRAMS, Fort Mason, Orange oounty, Florida. To My Friends in Georgia, Alabama and South Carolina. In response to many letters received by me, I have entered into a business arrangement with Mr. JOHN 8. BANKS for the purpose of locating settlers on the public lends of this and adjoining counties. Mr. BANKS is a prac tical surveyor of many years’ experience, and possesses a thorough knowledge of the public lands, haring been United States Begister of Public Lands. in this State. We have ex plored and surveyed a considerable tract of these lands, and wo are now prepared to looate settlers on CHOICE HOMESTEADS. Many persons have written me expressing a desire to move to this State during the present year. These I would advise to OBTAIN THEIR HOMESTEADS NOW. In the Fall months the rush of Northern settlers is bo great that it is difficult to obtain choice homesteads; whereas at present the travel is light, and one can se lect a place with greater ease. In addition, the large tract of homlstead lands contiguous to the tailroad, recently surveyed and opened up for settlement by Mr. BANKS, If not en tered this Summer will inevitably be taken up by the first influx of. Northern travelers next Fall.
