THE CITY COUNCIL of Lancaster,
Pa, have adopted a tax rate for the cur
rent year of 10 cents on the 500. The
total valuation of real estate is estimated
at S11 100000, on which the tax rate will
realize about 10000. The receipts from
water rents amount to $50, 900, and the
other sources of revenue increase the
total amount of receipts to $l25, 5,OO0.-
Among the items of expenditures are
the following: Interest and State tax and
redemption of bonds, S65,90O repairs of
streets, $l4, water works, $500 !;
water pipes, 5000; salaries, s6,250; po-
lice, $1,000; for lighting The city, 50 800 !;
for fire companies, (seven companies
with steamers at S40O each and one
without steamer at S250,) 5000; con-
tingencies, so, 40. Tie al expendi-
tures are estimated to come within the
total receipts, viz, S125,000.
Lane ster is city of nearly the same
size as Wilmington, and the above figures
will be peculiarly suggestive in showing
TO our people how cheaply city can be
conducted. Some OF the items " i'll cause
feeling OF surprise. particularly the one
showing that $3.50 will pay the cty
salaries, and that the steam hre co1npa-
MES can get along on S4OU per year each
The appropriations for streets, water de.
partment and police are also suggestive
ot an economy in these departments that
has thus far been unknown in this city,
While the appropriation for interest and
the redemption of loans shows that The
bonded debt of the city is only about
one-hAlf as large as That which now bur
tens the people Of Wilmington.
The total of the appropriations made
by the City Council Of Wilmington for
1879, exclusive Of the school appropria
ton of S64,0O0,) is 500, So, against
$4,000 for the same year in Lancaster
and not more than 10000 difference il

be urged in eNtenuation that the latte
city does not possess the well pave,
streets and line water works of Whining

people expect in small cities, and at fit,

THE FLORIDA AGRICULTURTST

ing the little labor required and the GER
tainty of getting the cash for it, to us is
a " knock down argument" which will
floor any one who undertakes to rebut it,
we are thinking. South Florida CSti-
zen.
About two miles from where the
Ocklawaha river enters Lake Griffin is a
very prominent hill rising about one
hundred feet above the level of the sur
rounding country, upon which the
growth is mostly pine and oak. The
ridge is three-quarters of mile long
and half mile wide, and about the CEN
ter is still another rise containing some
three acres. We are told, upon the top
of this hill vegetation has never been
known to be affected by frost the at
mosphere is pure and dry, as the vapor
neverreaches the summit. The view from
this elevated spot is magnificent, pictur-
esque and grand. The eye can wonder
with the view unobstructed, for miles
and miles. The small, serpentine river
below can be seen winding and twisting
its way through the extensive savannas,
while here and there nestle beautiful
orange groves and fertile farms. Quite,
or nearly all of this land is open to entry,
and it is surprising that some one has
not taken of this privilege ere this
Sumter AdUance.
..On recent visit to r. d. Smiths
place, west of Smyrna, we noticed many
improvements. His Australian wheat
mentioned in a recent issue-is growing
finely, and looks as though it would
prove valuable for cultivation in our
climate. The stalks of some, where a
little fertilizer was used, are three feet in
height, the tops burdened with long full
heads. 1t is growing on yellow sandy
pine land. When it is ripe, Mr.. Smith
proposes to give anyone who will try it,
enough to make a start. Mr.. s. has the
Japanese Persimmon and Olive growing
well; also many varieties of grapes and
other fruits. The grapes are growing
rapidly, and look as well as one could
wish some of them have blossomed this
Spring, although not over two feet high.
We give the names of each. The fol.
lowing six are European grapes received
from California Purple Damson, Flame
Tokay, Rose de Peru, Muscat of Alex
andria, Black Hamburg and Black NAL
voisie. Also the following from South.
ern nurseries Ives Seeding, Rulsnder,
Cyntheana, Herman, Herbemont, Nor.
tons Virginia, Concord, Salem, Iona.
He also has the old California Mission
Grape, and the Muscatelle, the principal
raisin grape of the State. Mr.. Smith
