The Palatka llrrald says: The staple and reliable crops of Florida are cotton, corn and sugar cane. Of the first you can make an immediate ly productive crop -of the second you can make enough for home purposes; of the last you can begin a culture that will in a tew years, with expe rience, yield you a large return. All: kinds of fruits and vegetables grow' easily and yield largely; but of the | crops on which to get immediate re- j turns in money cotton and sugar cane stand first. You win, if conveniently located, begin an orange orchard that will be growing while you are doing j these other things. Cattle, sheep and swine thrive and multiply on the wild grasses wit li I little feeding and less care on the St. John’s river. Very large herds of eat- j tie have cost their owners little be- j sides the trouble of marking the calves so that they may be identified. Some growers have twenty-five thou sand head each, or thereabout, and are rapidly enriching themselves by j pasturing stock on everybody’s land. The Confederate armies were largely supplied with beef from these mag nificent herds. Business at thb State Land Office. As an evidence of the influx of immi gration into this State we may men tion the faet that the sale- of land at the State Land Office, per month, amount to twice as much this year as they did two years ago. Land is now being sold at! the rate of three thou and acres per month at the Land Office, and most of it is sold to new settlers. This is one of the best evi dences of what carpet-bag officials are doing to increase the wealth and population of the State.— Taßa.ha.mec Sentinel. —The Duchess of Edinburg is now said to live much more aftera domes tic fashion than most people of her rank, and to be joined by Alfred, who has settled down into quite a model husband and father.

On yesterday wo heard the particu lars of a terrible tornado in Stewart county, which occurred last Monday night about 9 o’clock. The tornado passed over a section of country from west to east, and destroyed almost everything in its path. It crossed the Chattahoochee and entered Stewart county at Dr. Bat tle’s plantation, known as the Flew elien place. Here houses weie blown down and everything devastated. A negro on the place was killed. Two mules ia the lot were also killed. Mr. T. B. Lawson suffered heavily. His place was badly blown to pieces. All the outhouses wore blown down, and the dwelling turned around aqd unroofed. Nobody seriously hurt. One of Mr. G. Y. Bank’s plantations suffered very much. The houses and fencing are almost all gone, and the woodland torn to pieces. In 1836n remarkable cyclone passed through Stewart county which de stroyed much life and property. This tornado followed the identical track of its predecessor. It was about a hundred yards wider, being about half a mile wide. This is a most re markable coincidence. Mr. William Chumbloss lost every thing. His outhouses and dwelling were completely demolished. His wife is so badly hurt that it is feared she will die. Two of his sisters are very badly hurt. His farm is left a perfect wreck. Judge 11. M. Jenkins lost all his houses. Two rooms of a large dwelling are all that is left. Everything else is swept away. Dr. Griffin’s houses and fences were blown down and destroyed. He and his wife were badly hurt. Mr. W. G. Ward lost heavily. His dwelling and out houses were destroy ed and he was badly crippled. Beulah Church was torn to pieces and scattered far and wide. Henry Gordy, who lives at Green Hill, lost all his outhouses and his dwelling. Fences and trees were blown in all directions. Particulars of the ravages of the storm beyond tiiis point have not yet been received. It is feared it did much damage in other parts of the county. During the tornado the hardest rain ever known in the county fell. There was also some hail. The farm ers in the tornado’s track suffered terribly. The tornado was a terrible calamity to the county. It is impos sible to estimate the damage, though it is known to have been very great. It is remarkable that there was not a much greater loss of life. The storm was at night, and the effect is describ ed as terriile. The scone of the storm is said to be one of desolation. Truly, this was a calamity to Stew art county, and wo fear to hour fuller details, it seems that these terrible tornadoes are never to cease. The farmers in this section have suffered terribly this spring from the ravages of wind and storm. Tltll.Kf.lt t i'll l< ’ ITEMS. Special (.1 tlie Tran by ti. k A. I.lne.

ENGLAND. niSCUSSIo'N IN PAIIUAMF.NT ON LOB BYISTS. London, May 5. The House of Commons wus engaged in a debate last night on a motion made by the Marquis of Huntington, that the House do not entertain any complaint with respect to the publication of its proceedings, except in eases of wil ful misrepresentations, or when the publication thereof is expressly pro hibited, and that strangers are not to bo ordered to withdraw from the gal leries mi less they are disorderly, or by vote of the House. Mr. Disraeli opposed any curtail ment of the privilege. The House was able to deal with inconveniences caused by tho present method of ex cluding strangers, by suspending t he rule permitting a single member to order their withdrawal. Mr. Lowe denounced the continu ance of the rule. At this state of the debate, Mr. Sul livan called attention to the presence of strangers, and the galleries were accordingly cleared. The debate on the Marquis of Hun tington’s motion was adjourned until May 20. TtlF. LONDON' I‘IIKMH ON TH K \HI L Kir AN CENTENNIAL, London, May 5. The Standanl se verely criticised the letter from Mr. Gladstone read at the centennial cel ebration of Ihe battle of Lexington. Tt remarks that the habit of toadying to Americans is discreditable in Eng lish public men and journalists. The results of Republican experiment in the United States arc corruption of public life, wane of public spirit, op pression of minority, disgust of hon orable men, and the transfer of the Government into the hands of the : corrupt, unscrupulous and ignorant. The Times fully endorses Glad stone’s letter, and says it, would be melancholy if the lirst, great attempt to complete independence should re sult, in social anarchy. Although there is nothing at present to justify such fears, grave evils exist in some American institutions which must be remedied if progress is to be kept up. The daily News announces that the Earl of Pembroke will resign Under secretaryship of War, and he suc ceeded by Lord Cadogan. The British Government intends to send the frigate Valorous to survey Baffins Bay and the North Atlantic. Animal MceliiiK t tlie Trustees of the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church.

Jordan's Joyous Julep. A Specific for Neuralgia. I HAVE been saying a good deal through the j>apers of late extolling JUItDAN'H JGYOUB JULEP ns a most wonderful NEURALGIA CURE; but for fear you may exclaim as Hhakspeare when ho said “You cram these words into mine ear ngaiuHt the stomach of my sense," I now sub mit to you what persons say who have tried my Neuralgia Julep, with the most complete and satisfactory result: Columbus, January 16, 1876. Mr.Jordan: I take great pleasure in recom mending your Joyous Julep for neuralgia, has produced a most wonderful relief in cue oi the severest attacks of neuralgia my daughter ever has had- Hho has been treated for it by three skillful physicians, with very little benefit, and used all tho inuial remedies with littlo suc cess. I can with muoh confidence hope lor a per manent cure. It is only two (lays since we began the use of It, and it is apparently of permanent benefit. Yours, with respect, MRS. L. I. NORMAN. Petersburg, Va., Jan. 15, 1875. Jno. L. Jordan, Esq., Columbus, Ga.: Dear Hir—Having learned through my friend R. A. Bacon of your "J. J. J." preparation for re lief ol neuralgia, and tested it with perfect suc cess in my own family, in the worst cose, too, that ever came under my observation, I now enclose fifty cents for a second bottle, as I con sider it too valuable ft medicine to be without, though I have no immediate use for it. Very truly yours, JAMES T. TOSH. (Jolumiwh, Ga., Nov. g, 1874. I)r. J. L. Jordan: Dear Hir—Your Joyous Julep for Neuralgia lias been tried in my family, au.l with the most happy result,and I find in it all you claim for its virtue. And I unhesitatingly re commend it to all who are Buffering from Neural gia as something a little remarkable in it* cura tive power. J. D. WORTHY. Columbus, Ga., Dec. 18,1874. Dr. J. /.. Jordan— Your medicine, Joyous Julep, is without an equal for Neuralgia. Having been a great sufferer from the pain, and having tried the prescriptions of many physicians, yet all proved of no effect until I tried four doses of your Julep, when I was immediately relieved, and have not been troubled since. H. C. MADDOX. Lake City, Fla., Nov. 4, 1874. Dr. ./. L. Jordan —Please, scud me another bot tle of your Joyous Julep for a friend. I have never found anything equal to it for Neuralgia. Two doses cured me almost instantly, aud I can Httfcly recommend it to do what you say. Very respectfully, Ac.. JOHN M. JEFFRYB. Fkunandina, Fla., April, 1874. Dr. J. /.. Jordan, Columbus, da,: De ar Dir—lt affords me pleasure to add my tes timony to the efficacy of your “Jordan’s Joyous Julep,” in giving instant relief in Neuralgia; and to all appearance, as effective as instantaneous. I was effected dally Vlth Neuralgia, aud since taking a few teaspoonfuls of your relief, two or more weeks have elapsed, und there are ho indi cations of return. 1 hope that the human fam ily will raceive a benefit commensurate with the importance of your discovery, and that your pecuniary reward will be equal to its well de served merits.
