HOW THE EnIrEEOfs OF BRAZIL FRO
POSES TO ENJOY HIMSELF

The Emperor has announced that it
Is his intention to remain in this coun-
try until July 18th. As he desires in
the mean time to visit the principal
points of interest in the United States,
his movements will necessarily be
very rapid. His visits about the city
yesterday indicated capacity for
quick observation and an untiring
zeal and interest. He expects to take
leave Of the Empress this afternoon or
in the early evening, and in company
with the Visconde de Bosn Retro, DR..
Macedo aud DIR. Carlues Heuning, the
interpreter will set out on journey
to San Francisco. 1t had not been de-
terIained last evening what line of
travel out Of New York wonld be
chosen. He will go out on the Union
Pacific Railway, and expects to return
overland in season for the opening of
the Centennial Exhibition of May 10Th.
The time being so limited, the journey
will he rapid and fatiguing. He goes
TO San Francisco fret. so rs To cross
the piains before hot weather sets in.
His stay in San Francisco will be con-
fined 10 I'VE days. He has expressed
desire 10 visit every State in the
Union, will give special attention to
The industrial centers of the country
and will visit the Mi ssissippi, Nisgs RAJ
and the chief cities of Canada. The
Emperor will take special note OF
things suggesting Improvements in
his own country. The Empress will
pass most of the time allotted for stay
Ing in this country in New York and
Philadelphia, attended by DR.. de Son
"a Foutes and Vice-Admiral Delamar.
About July 18th the Emperor and his
party will sail for England. His next
movement will be to Paris. Then he
will go to Weisbaden. or Ems, or pos
sibly Baden Baden, where the Em-
press viii try the curative powers of
the celebrated springs, while Dom
Pedro will make the tour of Holland,

Sweden and Russia. The European
tour has been definitely marked and
with the intention of spending the
summer months in northern latitudes.
When the late November storms set
in the Emperor will rejoin the En-
press and travel TO Italy. The months
of December and January will be Civ
ELI to Rome, Naples, Florence and
Venice, and Northern Italy, fifteen
days being assigned to the objects OF
interest at each place or ncighbor.

PHENOMENAL LAX Es IL esoacIA.
yaldesta ga, Times.

yaldeSta q;a1 Times.
A third lake in Lswndes county has
been emptied of Its waters by subter-
ranean passages during the last six
months. What is the matter? The
Times has several times alluded 10 the
fact that Lowndes county had within
its borders anumber. of lakes from 10 to
500 (and several beyond ,ODO) acres in
size, and can it be that these lakes are
all connected with grand under
ground water course? 1t seems so.
In September last one dried up, or ran
of, aud left bushels upon bushels of
fish in holes of water upon the bottom
of the lake. In January another
about five miles from this did the same
thing, and now Grassy Pond, 4 lake
covering about five hundred acres, Just
between the TIVE above mentioned, has
left its millions of fishes out of water.
About three weeks ago it was report
ell that the waters OF This lake were
sinking below low water mark, aud
every day or two VIC would hear that
it was still going down. Last Friday
a report spread all over the country
like Wild lire that Grassy Pond was
low enough 10 rake the fish out with
nets, and by sundown over 100 people
had collected at the place. Some had
dip nets, some cast nets, aud there
was one seine in the party. The first
haul with the seine caught enough
trout, jack, Dream, and speckle perch
to make q mess fer every one present.
During that night all the water disap.
peared, and there were millions of fish
left dead upon dry land.
Next day the planters hitched up
their wagons and hauled load after
load, aud scattered them in their fields
for manure, and thousands were left
at the mercy OF buzzards, hogs aud
other creatures of prey. Such quanti-
ties Of fish, and such destruction have
never been known in the history of
IOwndes county. No one ever dream /
ed there were half that quantity of |
fish in Grassy Pond, though 1t was
celebrated for its fine fishing grounds
in the spring of the year. The Two
axes above mentioned did not run
hus completely dry, and the fish that
we're not caught were saved by the

DRINKING TOO MUCH WATER.

There ia no doubt that most people
drink too much water, especially dur
ing the hot season, and many case of
sickness, many death, if the truth
were know, could be traced to this
cause. The following views of DIR.
Hall, on this matter, are especially
seasonable now, when the increasing
heat begins to increase the amount Of
water drank:
''The longer one puts oil drinking
water in the morning, especially in
Summer, the less he will require DUR
ing the day; if much is drank through
the forenoon the thirst often increases
and very unpleasant sullness is OBJ
served in addition to metallic taste
in the mouth. The less man drinks
the better for him, beyond moderate
amount. The more water a man
drinks the more strength he has to
expend in getting rid of it, for all the
fluid taken INTO the system must be
carried out, as there is but little nour-
ishment in water, tea, coffee, beer or
the like. More strength is expended
in carrying them out of the system
than they impart to it. The more he
drinks the more he must perspire,
either by the lungs or through the
skin. The more he perspires the more
carbon is taken from the system, but
the carbon is necessary for nutrition,
and the less man is nourished the
less strength he has. Drinking water
largely diminishcs the strength in two
ways, and yet many are under the inn
preston that the more water swal-
lowed the more thoroughly the system /
is "washed ont" Thus, the less we
drink at meals the better for us. III
the amount were limited TO = single |

ave fallen into the habit OF drinking

All such will he greatly benefited by

From tie Chronicle.

The fortnight lending Jan. g. has been
Showery without a large measure of water
having fallen on any one day, but frequ emily
enough to make the neglected suburban and
country roads a plunge of muddiness, and good
as the whole, for the unripened crops. Canes,
everywhere, have taken a fine spring, under
these showers. Very fortunately for our holt
day folk almost equivalent to saying, for
everybody-the rain. laden airs cleared off
during the two days set apart for the annual
Races, the goth and Both ult., which were we'll
attended, and barring the inevitable disapoint-
ments of unfortunate bettors land owners Of
losing horses) gave the greatest satisfaction to
the thousands attracted to the Town Savanna.
After the races the showers set in again, but
are now diminishing daily in amount of pre-
cipitation. The Trades blow freshly, the
temperature is moderate, and the weather
altogether is highly enjoyable, and to those
free from passing or chronic weakness, highly
saiubri0us.
The entire sugar shipment of the year shews
an export =71,758 hhds., being no less than
22,508 hhds. more imam in IA, and 4,443 hhds.
over the great year '7l-yet the complaints Of
slackness in general trade. and the difficulty Of
getting in money, were never more rife than
in the fall Of rs. Taking the average sugar.
shipment of the last two years, it will be found
that the mean sum-, 60,5O4 hhds., is little
over the average Of preceding years thus the
additional shipment Of Is did little more than
make good the great deficiency of IA. Con-
sidering also the poor prices obtained in the
home market, these circumstances may go far
to account for the stagnation and scarcity Of
money current complained of for so many
weeks before Christmas.
The events of the fortnight are chiefly COM
prised in the amussments and dissipation of
the holidays, the coarse modes of indulgence
~praotised among the lower orders leading to
a mob of half.civilised disorderlies being looked
up In the Station on Christmas eve.
The HarbOr looks a little %livelier as the
ships drop in, but they will have some delay
before their return cargoe5 are ready, very
little sugar having been made to date.
Canes on the dry lands are expected to tell
a good story this crop.
