COLONEL HARDEE'S NEW DISCOVERIES
~
Pursuant to notice given number o
gentlemen met at the office of the Florid.
Land Agency, on the 18th of July, for the
purpose of listening to Colonel Lucius A.
Hardee in regard to the discoveries he
claimed to have made recently, for the an
initiation of obnoxious and troublesome
insects and also of poisonous and malari.
Gus vapors or substances in the air.
The meeting was organized by clectnp
Hon. Il. M. Randall Chairman, and G. l.,
Robinson secretary.
Colonel Hardee was then called upon to
explain the object of the meeting, and
spoke as follows:
"GENTLEMEN,--You are here by my re-
quest to investigate one of the most re-
markable discoveries of the age. | claim to
have utilized conclusion in the perfect an
initiation of the horticulturist pest known
as Curculio. My attention, early last
spring, was called to the fact that in the vi.
entity of the new railroad, which runs imme-
diately through my orchard, that the Cur
culio was being driven to the ex-
IRENE end of my orchard. 1t is well known
to all Pomologist that this enemy does its
work at night The cars passing through
my orchard (Which is situated just one
mile from the depot in your city, blows its
whistle in passing just after night and again
in the morning before daylight. was led
to the belief that the noise of the whis-
tie, or jarring, was the cause of
their disappearance from the vcin-
lily of the railroad. 70 satisfy my
self placed two pounds of powder in the
hollow of live-oak stump Immediately in
the vicinity where they promised the entire
destruction of some -plums, peaches, &c.
This powder was fired off one calm night
and it not only destroyed every Curculo but
every winged insect in my entire orchard.
My attention was called to the marvellous
growth of my peach trees and vines on the
line of the railroad. | could in no wav
account for this until discovered the Won
derful effect that the two pounds OF powder
had on my other trees. Iclaim, gentlemen.

claim that concussion will destroy all ami
malcules and render sickly localities per-
fectly healthy. 1t it well known that dur
ing the late war that yellow feveror no 9th

Southern cities, and it is also known that

The Public Debt of Our City and County.

We have esteemed and dear friends at
the South-good Republicans and thorough
ly upright men-who protest against our
plain speaking with regard to the carpct-bag
thieves who have doubled the debts and
trebled the taxes of several States. These
friends think that we are damaging the Re-
publican party and periling the election Of
1877 by thus speaking; we, on the other
hand, insist that we are taking the only
course by which that election can be saved
though we should take it anyhow. You
cannot march great army across the
flame, OF Tophet on a coat Of whitewash !;
II you attempt it, you will get into
trouble, which you cannot escape by
blaming those who forewamed YOU of
your folly. Not we who expose and de-
nouncc the thieves, but they who stole, are
responsible for the harm and shame which
have befallen the Republicans in the South;
and the only way to save the party is to
strip the thieves remorselessly of every
yestige of their abused power. If YOU
don't think so, try the other tack, and see
where you fetch up.
= As with the Republican thieves at the
South, so with their Democratic imtators
IN this city. As we wish the Democratic
organization in our State thoroughly beaten
next November, we shall be gratilied to
see it shoulder the Tammany load and
stagger through canvass under it; but we
don't believe it will do any such thing.
The pcttifogging Of the Democratic jour
nails is only intended to break the fall of
the doomed ones. Messrs. Tweed and
Connolly, we judge, will resign or be re-
moved; whether any more are or are not
MORALLY wounded, we can better judge
alter we shall have seen the last two years.
