RAIL ROAD TO TAMPA.-A convention was
held lately at Ocala, Marion county, Florida,
in reference to the construction of branch
from the Fcrnandna and Cedar Keys Rail
Road to Tampa. A letter WINS rend from
Senator Yuee, one paragraph OF which runs
rs follows:
"My great reliance, foreign aid, in the con.
struction of that part of the road which will
terminate Mt Tampa, has been upon the Hon.
duras rail road interest, which is in condition
to afford material mid; the rest can be derived
from Cuba. The people of that Island want
n ferryto the Florida shore, and the interes,
of the Honduras Company is concurrent with
what will suit Cuba. am grali6ed to be
able to shy that the Honduras enterprise is
rapidly assuming form and consstenre, and
that not many months can elapse before they
are fully and effectively organized. have
steadily preserved good understanding with
these interests, with entire reference TO the
effectiveness of this part of our system"

PHILADELPHIA. Oct 3l.-John Cooney has
been arrested on charge of furnishing forged
naturalization papers, Four witnesses were
examined, and testified that they had voted,
though they never declared their intention to
become citizens, nor been at court to obtain
papers-they obtained papers in mysterious
manner, but refused to tell from whom. Ono
voter found them in his coat pocket, another
at his house, another thrown into his house.
The above facts were ascertained through an
investigation instituted by MIR. Mann. the
Union candidate for District Attorney, who
is contesting the election Of Love @. Cassedy.

held at Marion Smythe county, Va.

sY- "a subscriber (whom we suspect to
be some narrow minded Leech) asks us why
we advertise DR.. Ayers Fills, and we will
give him our seven reasons for so doing. The
first, second and third are that we get paid
for it. The fourth is we know them 10y ex'
perience to be good. The fifth is that DR..
Ayers prescriptions being recommended by
better men than we-by physicians of the
highest talent and the deepest learning in
the land. we are we'll sustained in our own
convictions of their value The sixth is that
they are cheap as well as useful. The last
but not least is that they have done and are
doing an amount of good in this community
which our old fogy friend, il he could repeat
himself ten thousand times might never hope
to equal, and we trust by making them known
to render some service to our readers as well
as ourselves. Advocdte.

AN OLD MAN BURNT TO DEATH.-A Penn
sylvania exchange glyes the following nc.
count Of horrible accident:
Son Friday afternoon last horrible acci.
dent occurred in the village of Evansburg.-
Upper Providence township, Montgomery
county, by which an old gentleman named
John Slouah,a resident of that township,
was burned to death. He was ont riding
with his daughter; the latter got out of the
carriage in EyinSburg to do an errand, lelv
ing her father sitting in the carriage. Du.
ring her absence the old gentleman struck II
match for the purpose of lighting cigar,
hut which he accdentlIy dropped among the
straw in the bottom of the c;'rriage and i'm
mrdiatrly caught fire. The fire cummunica
ted to his cIcthing, aud before assistance
could be rendered they were entirely burned
from his body. lie lived but short time
afterwards"

THE CoTToN CRoP.-rhe Montgomery
Mail Of Tuesday says, there is already fiil-
ing off in the receipts of cotton here, though
We presume there will be still a considerable
influx for week or two to come. One fact,
however, may be relied on. Many planters
are through with their crops already, while a
large majority will be done picking within n
week. The crop is very short, and within a
month the fact will be 80 demonstrated that
tho spectators will be unable to devise theo
ries to keep cotton down. When we con.
slider the abundance Of money in the world
now-the high price Of all descriptions Of
property-the undoubted shortness Of the
present crop--we are surprised that planters
should sell at present prices.

INDIAN EXCITEMENT IN MiNNEsorA.-The
Sioux Indians in the vicinity of st. Paul,
Minnesota, are IN high state of excitement,
caused by the murder of one of their mum.
Der. 1t appeared that on the 4lh, one Of the
Sioux Indians called at the house of n Mr..
Brannel and complained of having lost a
blanket. Sympathzing with his loss, Mr.. B.
and his wife started into the field to assist in
finding it. He wandered off some hundred
yards, when the treacherous Indian threw
off the garb of his irienship, and commenced
deadly assault upon Mrs BranneI. He
he held his victim firmly by the throat, hut
her cries for aid, though smo,hpred and in.
terrupted, attracted her husband to the spot,
who rushed to her protection. AT his ap.
proach the Indian left his victim and turned
upon MIR. b. with n drawn knife when tho
Frenchman seized, loaded rifle and shot his
assailant through the head.
The remaining Sioux in that vicinity are
desperate, md have sworn vengence. They
are continually prowling around the place in
bands Of so to rs, declaring if they cannot re-
venge themselves on Brannel, they will take
some of bis nearest neghbors-that they
will have white mans scalp to dance on
before they are content. The neighbors are
in constant terror, and hardly dare to leave
their houses.

LAUGHTER can't endure person who
never laughs or who thinks it a violation Of
the rules of proprety to do so. A person
who habtually wears long face we. have
reason to dislike You may he sure he is de.
void OF the kindlier feelings of the soul. His
heart is callosity. You'll find him hypo-
critical self conceted. and uncharitabe. To
such person we always give q wide BERTH
We like him be't good way from us.
On the contrary, give'us one who believes
in good, hearty l.ugh. He is the man
true, open, frank, and kindly. Wit is the
champagne Of the soul, and laughter is its
effervesence. Then give us a loud, uncon-
trolled laugh. 1t does our soul good; and the
one who gives it vent will feel the better for
it, especially if he has just eaten a hearty
dinner

reasonable doubt that he will be able, during

his duties in that body. An attack Of fever,

eW- The American Mass Meeting here on
the 3lsi, was, in all its arrangements, the
most complete and best affair Of the cam.
paign. Had it occurred n week earlier we
should have endeavored to give our readers
abroad feint d, scripton of it; but under
e.risting circumstances it is unnecessary, and
we only allude TO it to return the thanks of
the Committee of Arrangements to our po-
liicnl friends in this and the neigborng
counties for the large and liberal manner in
which they responded to the occasion.
