Editor NOrididn The time is fast approach
ing for the meeting of our Democratic State Con-
vention yet so far public opinion is at sea as to
who shall be our candidate for Governor This,
together with the fact that Leon county has o
one competing for or desiring the honor, has sug-
gested the propriety of this section also giving
voice in favor of him who has been recently
mentioned by the press of the State as a suitable
person for the position. l refer to General E. A.
Perry. That this gentleman possesses fitness for
the Executive Office there can be no question
His digni6ed personal bearing, his f1rmness of
disposition, and his men tal ability and training,
all indicate that he is eminently qualified for the
position, and that he would push vigorous can
vass, no one can doubt who knows anything of
his zeal when once he committed himself to
work.
AS to 10 his availability, think am safe in
saying that he stands second to none For
while II is true he is pronounced Democrat,
yet there is nothing OF a partisan spirit about
him, and with men who are rather disposed 10
weigh the merits of respective candidates than be
guided by blind party zeal, his liberaliiy would
most surely commend him. Besides this, he is
not an Office seeker, nor has ever been-a fact
which deserves to be taken into account, for it
cannot lie denied that there Is a strong feeling
among the more intelligent of all parties that the
office should seek the man, and not, as is usually
the the case, the man seek the Office.
If then he possesses the necessary qualifca-
tons for an Exuctive, and is available as can
didate, what reason is there that he should not

l, therefore, earnestly hope that the people when
assembled at Gainesville will seriously consider
the proprety of naming him as our leader In the
approaching campaign.
If every man will but perform the duty de-
voving upon him in the coming canvass, feel
confident that, with General Perry as standard.

Key Of the Gulf, April 81

The RI. Rev. J. r. Young, d. d. s. T. D.
Episcopal Bishop of Florida. paid his official visi
tation 10 the churches on this island on Easter
Day. The Bishop Is very feeble from his recent
serious illness, and from that cause was unable
10 preach any sermon, but held q confirmation
service in St. Panl's Church in the evening" when
52 candidates were admitted 10 The Apostolic rite
The church was densely crowded and even stand
ing room c0uld not be obtained, and many were
compelled TO 60 away Disappointed. The candi-
dates were presented by The Rector, Rev. Chas.
A. Gilbert, and from the number confirmed, II
can only be inferred thai The Rector has done bis
duty without fail. Il appears that new life has
been infused into the Parish, and we arc pleased
to see II. M ~ ~ 4 t8

Bishop Young, has been idolized during her short

In our last issue we gave the particulars OF an
attempt to burn the residence of Mr. j. d. Will
son, on Sunday night the 4th inst, and OF the
arrest on suspicion and Judgment in Jail Of one
Solomon Hinson alias Henderson.
On Monday night following, about O'Clock,
the same premises were fired second time. This
time suspicion pointed directly to little cnlored
girl, between twelve and fourteen years Of age,
who has been in Mr. Wilson's employ as nurse
for more than a year. Upon being questioned
she confessed to having put fire among the wood
in the basemen: of the dwelling while down there
for bucket of water, but claimed that it was
done at the instigation of one Belinda Thomas
mistress of the man accused of the first attempt
She says this woman told her that it would clear
Solomon, and that she would pay her for il but
that when the fire began to blaze up, having no
desire to burn The house, she gave the alarm 10
Mr.. Wilson.
During last week, at different stages, the par.
ties were all arrested, imprisoned and brought
before Justice E. NJ. West for examination. The
evidence against the man was altogether circum'
stantial. but very strong, and he was bound over
in the sum of 5000 to appear at the next term
oil the CIRCUIT Court
No evidence appearing against the woman
Belinda Thomas Other than the girls statement
which was rcfuled by counter testimony, her case
was dismissed and she released.
The girl, Nellie Gaskins. was remanded 10 la'
to await further examination.
The affair, as 1t stands, presents considersoie
complication and is somewhat involved In mys-
terry The latter fire Is evidently connected IN
ooma, NAV with the frs, and II remains to be
perhaps 1t win never be known-whe'ne'
the girl applied the match on both occasions OF
whether the facts are. as she states them, OF
whether they are altogether different from elmer
present phase. We trust however, that suDse
quent developments win bring to light the parues
actually guilty of the crime-one even 'no''
heinous than murder.

neither U. s. Courthouse Post-office nor Gus

years there has been expended in rents for Court
house alone the sum of $50, OOO-enough to have
built two of them. The Custon-house is entirely

OVER THE LAKE.

The property known rs the Altoona Iron
Works, located on the line of the Ogdens-
burg and Lake Champlain railroad, about ~
miles west of Rouses Point, has been pur-
chased by eX-Congressman A. Williams Of
Plattsburgh. The works consist of five fur
IRaa; ses, with capacity of $50 tons of bloom
erty was $40, 900, and possession of the works
was given Feb. 9th. The parties eirecting
the sale were Hon. Edward A. Sowles, act
ing us executor of Hiram Bcllows's estate,
and Cashier Albert Sowlcs Of the First Ma
tional Bank of St Adams, as the representa-
tive of tina. institution. This property has
been owned by the estate and bank men
toned for n number Of wears, and much OF
the time during the past ten years the fur
naces have been out of blast, but the recent
boom in iron has caused the resumption ol
work there at rcmuncrativc prices. Mr.
Williams is n large owner in the Dannemora
railroad, and is also largely interested in tn,
