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

said society under ssid charter, by elec

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

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

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.

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

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

FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.
OLLA PODKIDA.
Gossip—Tbe Servo-Tnrkish War.
Washington, August 12.—The Ser
vians are strengthening the fortifica
tions of the capital at every point. The
Minister of the Interior is making con
tractsfor heavy supplies of provisions.
They will defend the place as long as pos
sible. The Sultan has granted amnesty
to the Bulgarian insurgents, except the
leaders and native movers in the revolt.
It is reported that TcheraagefPs at
tempts against Nisch failed. The Turks
reoccupy the positions from which
Tchernageff intended to bombard the
place. The Seiviar.s, if the soldiers
will fight, which is doubtful, will make
a stand at Alexeuits. The fugitives
camped fifty miles along the road lead
ing to Paratchin. 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. It is reported that machinists in
the company’s shops at Vincennes sym
pathize with the striking brakesmen.
The strikers are assembling at Seymour
from other points on the road. State
warrants issued for the leaders charge
larceny, stealing conpling pins. No
person can be found to serve them. The
State Marshal at Seymonr says he can
not interfere till a breach of the peace
occurs.
The Great Eastern won the 2:26 class
race. Saratoga three straight heats--
time, 2:19, 2 21, 2:215.
Advices from the Cherokee Nation
represent that Chief Thompson’s ad
ministration is unsatisfactory. Zealous
efforts are being made to revolutionize
the government.
Bradley & Widder’s plaining mill, at
Cincinnati, was burned. Loss, $50,000.
What the Press Thinks of the Promotion of
Disraeli.
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.
Herva-Turkisli War.
Ragtjsa, August 12.—Prince Monte
negro has delayed his march towards

Belgrade, August 12.—Bulletins pub
lished here deny that the Servian Col.
Antitch has retreated, and declares he
maintains his position.
Belgrade, August 12.—Prince Milan
arrived here from Deligrad. The Turk
ish forces attempted, on Tuesday last,
to break through the Servian lines at
Javar, but were comp etely repulsed;
nearly all of them killed. General Ban
co Ohmpics maintains his offensive po
sitions on Drina. Bunja, which has
been stroDgly fortified, is held by
Tchernayeff’s army, while Col. Becker’s
army occupies the mountains iu the Tt
mbk and Morava lines. It is expected
that Prince Mdau will proceed in a few
days to inspect the army on the Bos
nian frontier. Thirty thousand Bulga
rians, principally old men aud women,
it is stated have taken refuge in Servia.
The atrocities committed by the Turks
in Bulgaria aud Servia are reported as
beiDg beyond description. The sur
geons and officers are arriving at Bel
grade from all countries. One legion of
volunteers bearing the name of the
Princess Natalie has gone to the seat of

VALUABLE INFORMATION.
Boston. December 12, 1869.
Gkntlesces—My only object in giving you
this testimonial is to spread valuable informa
tion. Having been badly afflicted with Salt
lihenm. and the whole surface of my skin be
ing covered with pimples and erupti ons, many
of" which caused me great pain and annoyance,
and knowing it to be a blood disease. 1 took
many of the advertised blood preparations,
among which was any quantity of Sarsaparilla,
without obtaining any benefit until 1 commenc
ed taking the Vigeti e, and before I had
completed the first bottle I saw that I had got
the right medicine. Consequently. I followed
on with it until I had taken seven bottles,
when I was pronounced a well man. and my
skin is smooth and entirely free from
and eruptions. I have never enjove-) so g'ood
health before, and I attrihn e U all to the use
of Veketins. To benefit those afflicted with
Rheumatism I will make mention also of the
Veoetywe’d wonderful power of earing me of
ibis acute complaint, af which I have coffered
so intensely. C. H. TUCKER.

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. As my desire (without prejudice to
Northern settlers) is to looate the numerous
citizens of the States above nam'd on choice
Homesteads, while able to do so, I urge them
to make the selections at onoe, and thus se
cure valuable and eligible bomes in this Stats.
