SOUTH FLORIDA LETTER.


Since writing my last letter hsYe again
been over this portion of Florida. haYe
made two trips, together equslling a dis
tance Of nearly 500 miles. think 1 am
somewhat in q position to know the coun-
try, what it is composed of and what it is
capable of. I have no cause to alter or
amend my previous letters. Ny Journey
was made up by two trips. The first was
from Tampa across to the st. Johns river.
1t certainly was not g propitious time
for travelling and 1 congratulated myself
on seeing the country in about as bad
state and as wet state as it was possible
to see it. This last winter has been un-
precedent In vet weather. We have had
rain until it became a matter Of serious
consideration as to whether the country
was to become q universal trout pond.
There has been no season so wet as this for
over 30 years. But Florida, at least South
Florida, has happy knack of shedding
its water. The ground viii seemingly re-
main perfectly impermeable while it is
raining, bpt directly the rain is over, like
from ducks back, the water speedily dis
appears.
When started out, everybody said that
the rain had gone for good. But then
everybody turning prophet at one time
spoiled the business. II only one had
propheoied, ] believe it would not have
rained, but everybody setting up a ''Prob-
ability store, why, the exception had to
come to prove the rule, and 1 had to stand
the exception. 1t commenced raining on
my second day out, and kept on the whole
time almost, ] might say I made my
journey from Tampa to the st. Johns in a
swimming style, and having experienced
good Floradian soaking on my first trip,
can consider that I was made regular
'osterGn by the second. My journey took
me across three eogHties-HiIlsborough
Polk and Orange. In comparing these
counties, as to the quality Of land. Polk
must undoubtedly be given the first
place. It possesses a soil on the whole.
that would decidedly yield good profit
from farming. With very little fertilizing
most of the land can be made to yield
crops that will compare with any good
farming state, saw corn planted, and
in eleven days after the plant vas four
teen inches high, and in fine healthy and
thriving condition, and anticipate yield
from that crop Of 30 bushels to the acre,
Not alone did see corn In good condition,
but oats, cane, rye, and vegetables Of all
kinds. Fruits, too, do we'll in Polk county,
but undoubtedly Hillsborough Is the best
county for that. 1t cannot be denied that
the soil Of HillsbOrough county, and so
much of Polk as partakes Of the same
character Of soil, Is the best for the orange
culture, as well as for other kinds Of fruit.
Hillsborough possesses a good farming
land too, and good for the raising of veg
stables, but I think fruit culture is most
adaptable to it. The good hammock land
Of Polk is Of as pure quality as any
farmer could wish to possess, but it is too

Road Tax Law Changed.

Those who work out their road tax have
heretofore been required by law to perform
the work between the first day of May and
the first day of October of each year. The
law requiring them to do their work be-
tween the above dates was repealed at the
last session Of the Legislature, and a new
law passed requiring the work to be done
between the first day of August and the
18th Of June, the following year; for ex-
ample, the taxes assessed in 1878 must be
worked out between the first of August,
1873, and the first Of June 1879. This not
only holds good this year but it is to hold
good in the future until the present law is
repealed. Supervisors road certificates
must be presented to the County Treaurer,
st the June payment of taxes, instead of
in December as heretofore, unless persons
wish to pay full tax in December.

From the way in which the majority Of
the Potter committee stand shivering on
the brink of investigation, it might be i'm
aginSd thst it was their party which was to
be implicated in the Presidential ''frauds.
The Republicans on the committee have
pointed out to their associates the two
lines of action which are epen to them-the
investigation must either proceed on the
assumption that the validity Of the Presi-
dents title is in question or that its sole
end is the punishment Of the officials who
may be found to have been directly instru-
mental in perpetrating the alleged frauds.
The majority Of the committee seem emily
to have made up their minds that the scope
of the investigation must be narrowed as
much as possible and its opening delayed
as long as is compatible with the necessity
of keeping up appearances. Among other
reasons for what is deemed the inexplica-
bic delay in beginning the work, probably
not the least is that the man who is pulling
the wires of the Democratic puppets Is the
great proorsstinatOr, Samuel ]. Tilden.

The volunteer military companies OF
Ohio are required by law to 60 into annual
encampment for several days, and it has
been the practice of the Legislature to sp-
propriate an encampmsnt fund to meet the
necessary expenses. The o'Conner Legis-
lature refused to make this appropriation,
and in consequences the military will be
obliged to furnish their own camping equip
msnts and rations. They will not only
lose their valuable time in the encampment,
but be compelled to spend their hard-earn-
ed money, if they comply with the law.
The remedy for this indignity and injustice
is to be found at the polls, and the volun-
teers will be apt to exercise it. o

Mr.. Thurman's bill to force Ohio suitors
in the United States Courts who live west
of certain line to go to Toledo with their
causes whether they will or not, has passed
the Senate. 1t appears to be designed for
the special benefit Of the Toledo hotels.
Toledo is in the same district as Cleveland,
but it has branch court established for its
own special convenience. There has never
been business enough before this special
tribunal to justify its e1istanee. Hence
this effort to compel business to go there
which would naturally come to Cleveland.
