TROUBLES IN FLoRIDA.-Aboutn nine o'clock
on Friday night, citizens OF Tallahassee, to the
number of one hundred or more, were sum-
moned by the city and county authorities to
hold themselves in readiness to aid in quellng
any riot which might occur. AT Il o'clock there
were no indications Of trouble, and the posse
were discharged.
The cause of the call was the issue of conflict
ing orders by Governor Reed and Lieutenant
Governor Gleason, and fears were entertained
that the colored people would be called to sup
port the action of the Legislature. The citizens
were uneasy but will not interfere, except to
aid in preserving the peace, In which case
prompt assistance will be rendered. There were
rumors on the streets that the plantation ne
groes have been notified to come into the city
that night, but the rumors may be doubted
One company OF the seventh regiment about
thirty strong, were In Tallahassee.
The legislature in Tallahassee has, adjourned
till January. No quorum was present when
Several members held seats and voted whose
seats had been declared vacant by proclamation
of the Governor by reason OF the members &C
cepting and occupying other Offices.
Gov. Read refuses to recognize the action OF
the body and declares it illegal. Lieut.. Gov.
Gleason then demanded possession Of
the executive Office, and was refused by Gov.
Reed, who has brought suit against Gleason,
and Alden, Secretary of State, for conspiring
against the Government, and they are now I'M
der arrest by order of the circuit judge. This
case will be sent up to the Supreme Court.
The general impression seems to be that Heed
is right.
The following are the articles of impeach
ment against Gov. Reed They charge him with
falsehood, incompetency, illegal actions, EN-
bezzlement, corruption and bribery.

GUNs-Oat of one hundred cases OF a dou-
bic barrelled gun bursting, ninety,Gve can be
traced to defects in the left barrel. The rea.
son is simply that the right is most frequently
used and reloaded, perhaps ten times to the
left one being discharged once. Every time
the right barrel is discharged, the gunpowdel
in the left is pulverized more or less by the
shock, which, therefore, leaves a space between
the charge aud the wadding by settling. Ma
turally, when the left barrel is discharged, il
frequently expodes. These accidents can be
avoided by sending the ramrod home with one
or two smart blows into the non-discharged
barrel every time time the other is reloaded.

OlitnNrN,

Died at his late residence near Dallas,
on the LIST April, in The 81 year Of his age
q. W. Knight, a most Cstmuhlc ci,iacn oi
this County for 80 years, and an eSempla.
ry mcmbrt Of the Methodist Episcopal
Church for at least two score years. Born
in Virginia, FOR number a number Of years
residing ia Bedford County, Tenn, lac set
tied in Dallas County in 1873.
In his dcccase, society aud the Church
join the large family connection in sorrow
over the loss OF one OF the most excellent
of men. Energetic and pr5yidcut, he had
accumulated comfort aud abundance
whilst the citizen, the ncighhor, the friend
aud the christian united in him, to hallow
his name in the heart of the community.
Pure.minded and generous hearted, tire
less in energy and fixed in purpose, he has
left as life, lin his sphere to be rcycred
and initiated. Unmurmuring amid long
1and painful illness, he awaited for weeks,
as white haired patriarch, his departure
to be at rest Tho uniried spirit-lanj to
him had no gloomy foreshadowingsi but
firm in Christian integrity, his heart ycarn
ed to depart to the world of Light and
Life. Even as the very silver cord oosed
he shouted Hosanna TO Redeeming BLOOD.
To meet boldly and calmly our destiny is
sublime spectacle, but when the aged one,
lfe's race has RIM, confidently and resign
eddy goes down to triumph through the
last great struggle, it is here we see the
glory and the power of the Gospel.
We attempt no needless oulogy-"llis
works do follow him. his name has per-
ennial freshness in our hcarts-no words
are words of comfort to the cidowcd and
orphaned. Their grief is too sacred to be
disturbed Let them weep and cherish
their sorrow, It's nature bids them. Yet
while heart bleeds, and daily they realize
their growing desolateness, may they re-
member, "wh do, thou knowcst not now,
but thou shalt know" True, the Grown
is taken away, but he is only transferred
in advance to await your coming. Father,
give us grace in these hours Of affection.
steady our faith, and keep us safely press

Hancock Letter ana Origin.

We hope every one of our readers will
study the beautiful and just answer of Gen.
Hancock to Gov Pease, on the first page
In purity Of diction and elegance of style
it is worthy of some Of tho oil masters OF
the language and in thepolished and cxqui.
site sarcasm of facts it vies with the most
splendid efforts of Erskine or Fox. 1t is a
singular anomoly that civil officer should
inlsrcele for the supremacy of military
rule, and call upon military officer Tor
Tho subgersion of civil government, and
that that officer should abnegate the tempt
atoms so seductive to pride and gratifying
to power, and in n communication, honor
ing to even tho first legal ability and at
tainments, denying The occasion for militia
ny rule, acknowledging and commencing
the great principles of Constitutional Lib
erty and advocating the necessity for tile
control of military authority by the civil
law.
The origin of Gov. pease's first letter as
we understand is this, a man by the name
of Black, Radical Representative from
Uvalde cou ty, was killed by man named,
if we rocollect Alright, - Wall. Owing
to the jury order of Gen. Griffin, it was i'm
possible to get n jury for the trial of Wall
The Judge of tho district made application
or suggested to Pease to have Wall tried by
military commission.
Pease endorsed the application and for
warded it for the consideration and action
of Gen. Hancock. The latter refused the
application for the following reasons, viz:
The country was in state Of profound
peace, the courts were untrammelcd in their
legal jurisdiction and exercise of their le-
gal powers, and thati would be dangerous
to the safety of civil liberty to set such pre-
cedent. Pease then answered in a commu-
nication through the columns of the news
papers, which elected the spler did letter Of
Gen. Hancock Too much credit and hon
or cannot be accorded TO the magnanimous
and accomplished soldier for his mastery
defense of civil liberty Too mnch obloqny
and infamy cannot be branded upon the
name Of Psase for his dastardly attempt to
crush civil law, and erect upon its ruins
the horrors of irresponsible, military des-
notism

ity River, visiting Magnolia and Pnrkers
Bluff, at the former he found the steamers
"Ruthven" and "Early Bird" both taking
in cotton for Galveston. Arriving at Par
kers Bluff, he says:
"Next morning the little steamer
"The Job No. l." Capt. j. ii. Nc
Gravey, came up and hitched to a
grub. The Captain says he is de-
termined to run Job up to Dallas,
and the last we saw of Job he was
splitting the water in that direction.
Success to him."
This is the same boat which our friend
Stuart, Of the Civilian, mentioned last fall
as having been built there for the Trinity
River. All we have to say is thai he miss
ed the prettiest chance week or two ago,
to bring his thing up to our landing that
he will have again in a hurry, and even
now, we believe the river is in nayigable
order. Come along Captain, we want to
shake hands with the first steauboatmsn
that comes to Dallas, by the river route.

rssp. Now is lho season Wien flowcl

nsP" Now is the season when howcrl
should be opening aud the air balmy with
their fragrance; when the many snvory
and henlthful vegetables Of the garden
should be maturing for use. The summer
is coming on, and for the preservation Of
health, tho necessity of dispensing in a
great measure with the heatcniug and de-
terious effects of animal food is almost alb
solute. But VIC look around in vain for the
animating luxury of flower gardens, AMI
the signs of that delicious vegetable diet
so great an assistant of Hygiene. Capt
John our intelligent, observing and practi-
cal Houston correspondent, has dcmonstra-
ted by tie irrefutab!c arguments of facts
and figures the great advantages of Guilt
waiting both vegetables and flowers. As a
people ad vnnced in civilization their wants
become nearly wholly artificial and the
luxury of the garden becomes as
much if not more indispensable to the man
or woman of refined cultivation rs cab
bage or turnip-greens as articles Of food TO
those of a more primitive State. The civil
izaton of people can be judged as cor
rectly by their taste for pleasing and bear-
tiful objects, music and culinary depart
ments as by their literature and science.
Does not every one known that the value of
any place is greatly enhanced by the
adornment of tasteful and select shrub
berry Why OF then when the cost is on
ly slight industry which should be a
pleasure, enchance the value Of our town
lots and farms by their cultivation. Docs
any one scorn the wholesome and exquisite
luxury of vegetable diet? If so, TO him re-
commentator or argument would be use
less; the range here will be bad, his inter-
est compels him to move.
Too much attention cannot be given TO
such things. Some one once said, Show
me the mother, and will tel you the man.
1t might, with equal if not more truth be
said, "Let me see the yard around mans
house and 1 will tell you the taste and
