TIE PRIZE RANNER-
On the morning Of the 9th the prize banner
awarded ID the JeEsrson Riaes By Tie Tallahas-
PEE Fair Association, e. The bess drilled company
In the elAte. reached here By freight train. II
WA delivered TO the corps without formal pre-
sentAtion or ceremony. It Ii % by 10 inches In
dimension, and made ofwhite silk, bordered with
blue and gilt, bearing on iis face amply Jefer-
con RiAeA" No mention b made for what and
by whom Il was awarded, an omission that 10
very suggestive h b very neat sunday School
banner, and we suggest that II be presented to
any organization Of said character that can be
induced to accept II.
/ am thus careful to copy what the Constitu-
ton says in order th6t the people of Leon coun-
~, very few Of whom ever see that paper, may
know in what spirit the handsome prize, which
has been prepared at 30 much trouble and ex-
pense, was apparently received by those for
whom the Consultation assumes to speak. The
statement that this banner was awarded to the
Rifles as the best drilled company in the State
isa bit of cheap brag, which, however grateful
to the feelings OF the members of that company,
is unwarranted by the facts; as there were sew
eral companies lin the State" which did not
participate in the contest at the last Middle
Florida Fair. The description of the banner,
given by the Constitution, is very unfair. 1t was
certainly amoet elegant and costly piece of work
with a handsome staff, made of Florida pine,
oiled and polished, tipped with gilt spear head,
and furnished with very heavy gilt cord, with
rich gilt tassels, by which the banner was sus-
pended. The absence of inscription other than
the name Of the company does not seem in such
bad taste as the covering of the entire face of
the banner with painted letters would have been.
The coarse insult offered to the officers of the
Middle Florida Agricultural and Mechanical
Association, and the people of Leon county, in
the last paragraph quoted above, is unworthy of
notice, except TO express the hope that not one
of the officers or members of the Rifles could
possibly be guilty of endorsing it, and the fur
Their hope that in the next issue of the C0nstitu-
tOn those gentlemen will publicly and most pos
lively disclaim any sympathy with such senti-
ments as the Constitution has made itself respon-
sible for. They owe it to themselves as honora-
BILE gentlemen not to permit such shamefully dis
graceful language to be mistaken for their real
sentiments.
As for the COnstitutiOn let il wriggle out of the
contemplate position it has assumed as best it
can

An ENGLISH SETTLEMENT FOR
DoUGLAs CoUSTY, WIsCoEsIN.--
Mr.. samuel Budget wealthy
merchant Of Bristol, England, who
owns several thousand acres Of
land on the south shore of Lake
Superior, near the Brule River,
about twenty miles east Of Superior
IS engaged in the commendable
enterprise of colonizing these lands
with people direct FROM England.
Already two families are on the
ground substantial frame house Is
erected and some land il cleared
The lands ore now bet 6 Ont MP IN
forty acre lots, and it is Mr.
Budgett's intention 10 at once
clear 4 few acres on each lot, build
q snug log cabin thereon, and have
the place ready for \ settler 10
move into and cultivate in The
Spring. 4 toHnsite is to be laid
out at the mouth Of the Blulr
River, and several roads establish
ed MIR Budgets lands are
| peculiarly well adapted for the pur-
poses OF colony. The soil is 4
strong red clay well adapted for
/ the raising Of all kinds Of crops
peculiar to this climate, especially
the grains and grasses. The sur
face is level or gently rolling, drain
ed by numerous streams, easily
cleared, ana entirely devoid of
stones. \ good market tor all
that can be raised may be found
ct the numbering camps near by
and at Superior and Duluth. The
umbering camps furnish work for
men and teams in tile winter season
at good wages. Mr.. Budget ex-
poets to send out quite number Of
settlers and some are now on tie
way. His intention is TO send only
men Of good character and posse S.
Ell OF some means. That they Will
be satisfied with the country, and
with perseverance, make happy
homes tor themselves there can be
doubt.
These new corners will add much
to he wealth Of this country, and
especially cur county, and thor
advent here should be warmly wei
coined b. our people, and every
encouragement offered them. Our
county authorities should see that
q road IS built down the lake shore
as far IS the Brule river, With
will accommodate not only the
colonists but he several numbering
firms doing work down in that
direction and when the settlement
becomes Of sufficient sizo town
should be set of, school facilities
afforded, etc. etc.
Mr.. Robert Burridge, late Of
Bristol, has charge on the ground,
and Mr.. James Bardon, Of Superior,
will look after tie interests of col
onists as they arrive ct Duluth or
Superior. We hope 10 chronicle
great progress in the colony within
the next year.

Antidote for RattIesnake Bite.


DR.. j. H. JOHNSON, of Center Point,
Kerr County, sends us the following
antidote for the bite of the poisonous
rattlesnake:
Potassium lodi, four grains.
Hydrargyri, chloridi CORROSIVE, two
grains.
Bromide, five drachms.
The Doctor says:
Ten drops of this mixture, taken with
tablespoonful of brandy or wine, con-
stitute dose, to be repeated if neces-
sary-which means should any swelling
return in the space of an hour, there
should be repetition of the dose.
DR.. johnson says further:
With this antidote and spirits of am
monia applied externally, / should have
no apprehension in doing the same as
DR.. Bibron did, in his experiment before
the Academy of Sciences of Paris. He
allowed rattlesnake to bite him on the
lips and cheeks, and then by taking the
antidote discovered by him prevented
all alarming symptoms, and, in fact, suf-
fered no inconvenience therefrom. DR..
VIM. A. Hammond, U. S. A., and be-
lieve now residing in Philadelphia, was
stationed at Fort Riley in 1857. He
made many experiments with Bibron's
antidote ON animals, and with complete
success, which he reported in the Medico-
ChirurgicM ReUseaO of March, 1858. One
case l will give as stated by DR.. Ham
mond: "Heinrich Brandt, hospital
steward, was bitten on the I'd of July,
1857, on the index finger of the right
hand by large rattlesnake, which he
was in the act of putting in a jar for
preservation. The snake inflicted very
deep wound, and hung by his fangs to
the finger until detached. administered
ten drops of Bibron's antidote. Forty
minutes after giving the first, the pain
and swelling returned, attended with
considerable throbbing. repeated the
medicine, and in less than five minutes
the finger had regained its natural APP
pearance, and all pain and swelling had
vanished. He remained cured. San

An Apache Arrow.

The following story of an Apache
arrow, which made itself felt sixteen
years after striking its victim, is told by
the Virginia City New Chronicle:
In the year 1864 George Peasland was
a member of the California Volunteers,
a cavalry regiment commanded by Col.
Ceremony, who commanded a campaign
against the Apaches in Arizona. Dur
ing one of the numerous fights with
these murderous savages, Peasland was
struck in the abdomen by poison ar
row and very nearly lost his life, which
