The Osceola times., 1879-03-15

A TRAvELING correspondent of the
New York Herald says. The south is
the only part of the United States that
can afford good speculation in the way
OF railroad (the S)uthern Paciffc) and
Tom Scott knowsi it. The road is sure 10
come, and 10 view of other facts, and
for reasons thst we believe are just and in
harmony with this universal verdict of
the best thinkers that We know, we are
forced TO conclude that the south is
rising and her futuro is secure. The FIRE
that scared her sunny fields will light
the path to glory yet.

SAINT spots about the city, perhaps there is
no place more charming or more generally
rcsorled TO BY our citizens in the spring and
summer evenings than the old reservoir.
Visitors TO the city are invariably struck
with The air Of beauty and cleanliness every
thing there presents. and not unfrequeDtly
express their admiration in unqualified
terms. Above all. they speak OF the gem
tlemanly courtesy and politeneSs Of the SUI
perintendeDt, Mr.. Lysander ". Rose. He
certainly deserves their praise, for more
gallant and polite gentleman is hard TO find.
His attention and care, united with dis
play OF his refined taste, make the grounds
Present an almost iaultleSs appearance of
beauty and luxuriance. This reservoir is
certainly charming spot, where the wea-
RED citizen can enjoy the beauties OF nature,
famed By cool. refreshing brecZes.
