GT Wepublish a communication from
"Isasigno' this week, but we don't en-
dorse near all he says. We believe the
legal fraternity do good deal Of bust
ness in which fools are not parties on
either side, and probably the gentleman
himself will profit by their aid at some
future time. Wherever there is q live
community, and business is active, there
Is always healthy amount Of litigation.
Ills criticisms OF the Commissioners,
too, are severe. But he has right to
his say, and probably their hides are as
tough as the legal fraternity.

The by-standers or bs-sitters, at the
 store of Baker $ Brinsmade last week, could not fail. to be interested in the con- versation concerning .the dncks and tur- keys Mir. Sherman Hartwell was shipping by railroad to various points. Talking of a turkey weighing 39fbs. makes a person open eyes and ears; but it was fact that one of ten turkeys that gentleman started for England on the steamer, City of Rich mond, for Liverpool. last Saturday, did weigh 39fbs. With it's mate weighing 20fbs., it took both the turkey premiums at the poultry show in Bristol. Mir, Hart we'll also shipped to Hornby, Ont. Cana da, a pair of Bronze Turkeys, matched last June. that weighed respectively 25 and 1Sths, the buyer, Mir. BurraIl. beliey- ing them to be the best pair of youngs fowls eyer imported into Canada. The same gentleman also bought pair of Pekin Ducks of Mir. Hartwell. These are a creamy white, and. can easily be mistak- en for geese till they open their mouths, when it becomes evident theyare of the quack profession. MT. Hartwell does not export all his nice birds. He has sold in this state great many pairs of turkeys. ducks, and partridge cochins, at good prices He has long had wide reputition for his Cotswold sheep. J.

 To the Editor of the Tribune.
 SIR: Will you accept an old subscri ber's opinion regarding the vote of Flor ida? For nine years have been engaged In orange culture in tLis State, and am acquainted with many who have emigra- ted here for health and fruit culture. l and many Republicans voted for the Democratic State officers, DIew and Hall. while many Democrats also voted for Hayes and Wheeler. know both the Re publican and Democratic nominees. believe, from trustworthy information ob- tained In this State, that next week will see MT. Drew sworn in as Governor of Florida. I sincerely hope it will be 80. If the taxes in the years to come are It, creased in the same ratio as during the past five there will be nothing but Flori- da land with which to pay. speak from personal knowledge, as my taxes and those of my friends on the same proper ty have advanced from $9 to over $9OO, per year since 1868 Emigration cannot con tinue under such oppression.

SOMETHING THAT CONCERNS EVERYBODY Among the crowd of Proprietary medi- c1nes that seek acceptance from the pub lie, through the advertising columns of the press, and there is now and then one which deserves the recommendation of the Editorial fraternity. In such instances, but in no other, we feel at liberty, and in fact deem it almost duty, to express a favorable opinion of the article We have been asked repeatedly if Hale's Honey ot Horehou'.d and Tar was really spe- cific for Coughs and have had no hesita- tion in giving an affirmative reply. What we have said privately to friends and ac- quaintances there can be no impropriety in reiterating in print. It is an excellent medicine. No one who has taken it as remedy for ailments of the throat and lungs or has observed it's effect on others in cases of this nature, can entertain any doubt of it's curative power.
