We are in receipt of Leo Miller's
pamphlet, entitled "The Miller-Strick-
land Defense" and can only say con-
corning it that it is worse than labor
wasted, and that no profit can be de-
rived from it's perusal. 1t is simply an
illogical appeal in favor of free love or
eoncubinage, and an untruthful denun-
citation of marriage. The defense had
better never been made, and being made
should never have been published.

S. A. HART, Esq, formerly county sur
veyor of this county and widely known
and highly esteemed old citizen, who
has been sojourning in Florida for
year or so, returned on Saturday last
with his family. He did not like Flor
ida as place Of permanent residence on
account Of mosquitoes, sandhies, Aeas,
heat, &c, yet he gives very good &C.
count Of it. He was on the eastern
coast south Of St. Augustine, and re-
CARDS that as the most agreeable part of
Florida. He says the climate there is
very healthy, and thinks that persons
afflicted with catarrh and pulmonary
diseases will be benefited and even
cured by taking up their residence
there.
The 10Th annual fair of the Pierce
County wis., Agricultural Society
will be held at Prescott, Sept. 22nd and
23d. The Plaindealer publishes the
list Of premiums and rules and regula-
tions, from which we learn that the
membership fee is $l.00, and entities
the members and families to free ad-
mission to the grounds and the right to
enter articles for premiums without
cost. The premiums are all liberal,
and embrace offers for nearly every
thing grown, bred, or manufactured on
the farm, in the dairy, house, or work
shop. If an attractive premium list
and a we'll arranged programme can
effect large exhibition and liberal pat
ronage, Pierce county ought to have a
successful fair this season. The
officers of the society are: President
W. F. McGray; Recording Secretary
II. a. Jay; Corresponding Secretary
