The Florida Volcano.

The Tallahassee Floridian of the
Sth says: Mr.. John McDougall, who
was one of a party that recently went
NARROWING down the gulf coast to Ce-
dar Key, gave us a brief account of
the excursion. Among other things
he mentioned having distinctly seen
the smoke which for years has been
visible just inland from the mouth of
the Pinhook river, and is generally
supposed to be a volcano. 1t seems
strange that for so long a time this
mysterious column of smoke or vapor
should have attracted the attention of
all who have been within sight of it,
and that notwithstanding many at
tempts no exploring party hasyet been
able to reach it.
Judge p. W. White is reported to
have penetrated the swamp on one
occasion, and within an estimated five
miles of the place, but no one has
ever actually accomplished the feat Of
reaching it and finding out what it is.
There are those VINO say that they
have e e a strong light in the direc-
ton of the smoke column by night,
from point. eighteen or twenty miles
distant in the interior Of Jefferson
comfy. The column is reported as
being of a density and color too deep
for vapor, and every account indicates
that it is smoke and not the heated
vapor or steam from hot springs. Sew
eral gentlemen of this place have ex-
pressed their willingness to aid in
person and in bearing the expense OF
an expedition TO penetrate the swamp
and reach the mysterious spot.
1t is to be hoped that the matter
may not be allowed to die out, but
that some steps may be taken at an
early day to organize a thorough and
effective exploration of the locality
and discover the cause Of the smoke.

FIOOred.

During the trial of the case of c.
Weber, for cruelty to animals, before
the judge Of the police court this
morning, the president was effectually
foored. 1t is the custom Of the at
tOrney, Nat. Taylor, to secure the
softest bottomed chair to be found in
the morning, and take it into the
court room for his exclusive use dur
ing the session of that august tri-
bunal. Being suddenly inspired this
morning, during the trial of the
case in question, he sprang from
his chair, and after addressing the
court for some minutes in eloquent
style looked about exhausted, for his
chair only to find it occupied by the
president Of the s. p. G. A. He
watched his opportunity and when
the president took his turn Nat the
Judicial car, captured the disputed
chair and moving it to one side dep
osited his frame upon it with a CRATE
tul expression OF ease upon his face.
The president finished a fearful es.
say and overcome with emotion looked
not about him, but slowly parting his
coattails dropped into the waiting
chair but the chair was not there.
Col. Taylor viewed the results of this
fact with a mingled sense Of grati6ca.
ton and rcasm and the discounted
president raised himself from the
floor at a distance Of some ten feet
from the chair that wasn't there and
took a sober sanctuary on a strong
deal bench.

PEABODY BILLIARD HALL,

The most elegant resort for
lovers Of the game. GOT

The republican journals are fond Of
quoting the trenchant criticisms Of
the New York Stats Zeitung, the
most influential German paper in the
Union, published by Mr.. Oswald o.
tendorfer on Tilden and democrats
generally. We suppose therefore they
will accept what he says of Garfield
and Arthur. This is from the Stats
Zeitung of Thursday last;
Unfortunately, General Garfield is
compromised by the revelations Of his
corruption, and, especially by the
proof that he was bribed by Cakes
Ames with Union Pacific shares, and
that he was a party to the cheating
contract of the Shepherd ring, too Sc
riously to make it possible for us to
regard him as a man Ofpure character,
from whom it might be hoped that as
president his administration would
have a high moral tone.
The personal corruption of which
the republican candidate for president
has been proved guilty, and the i'm
plication Of the candidate for vice.
president in the basest sort of ma
chine politics, and especially the most
Inscriptions traffic with Tammany,
do not seem to trouble the republicans
very much.
The anne man who would send Til
den to prison on account of his in
come tax business and his doubtful
railroad transactions, find it all right
that Garfield should be made presi.
dent, Notwithstanding that as a repre-.
sentative in congress and the chair
man ola committee he took brides Of
shares and money, and sold his official
power in the market.

degrees warmer than yesterday at the
same time. No rain fell anywhere
south last night, nor is any indicated
to- day. In fact, the entire country is
to be free from showers to day, except
along the south Atlantic and north
Pacific coasts, whore occasional rains
are promised. The winds here yes

The breezes were generally northerly

Drawing II Mildly.

The New Yord Herald says "His
indiscreet friends should not tempt us
to reproduce what we said Of Mr.. Gar
field in 1873. when he was too unim-
portant to be made a target for any
other reason than his completely in a
great public scandal. Our only pur-
pose in refraining to 60 behind the
authority of the Sun, was to put the
case as mildly as possible, and to indi-
cate a willingness to waive our former
severity, to give Mr.. Garfield a new
hearing, and to judge him on the mer
its of his defence, if a defence
shall be made, without being
bound by the opinions we expressed
respecting him when the case was
new. His friends make shabby re-
turn for this considerate reserve by
trying to ridicule as if we had just
learned of the existence of such
charges. IF his indiscreet champions
will allow us, we prefer to make a
tabula rasa of all the Herald said OF
him when the subject was fresh and
to give him the advantage Of a new
hearing in a state of the public mind
more favorable to his defense. We
are sincerely anxious that he should
be cleared, for it would be a reflection
on our institutions if we jump out Of
the frying pan OF imperialism into the
fire of bribery, perjury and corrup-
ton.

COLLEGE Examinations.


On yesterday, throughout the day
and in the evening, the examinations
at the Christian Brothers college
were concluded. The students of the
higher classes were examined and gave
evidence of close and successful study.
Their appearance, answers and behay-
Tor attest them TO be as intelligent,
studious and we'll behaved a set OF
students as can be seen anywhere.
The programmes Of yesterday included
examinations in rhetoric, geometry,
trigonometry, algebra, book keeping,
physiology, Virgil, Caesar, Latin, gram.
mar and prose composition, etc. The
music of the students was very good.
and some Of the selections would have
done credit to amateurs of more than
ordinary pretensions.
The patrons of the school must feel
the utmost pleasure in witnessing the
steady progress and excellent behavior
of their sons, and no doubt the Christ
ian Brothers feel encouraged to find
that the students appreciate the rare
and excellent opportunities afforded
them at their college.

THE CORRUPT CANDIDATE.
High Republican Testimony as
10 Gen. GariieId's Character.


New York Tribune, Feb. 10, 1871
Let us gather up the ends from all
this snarl Of testimony and see, if pos
sible, just where we stand. Read the
evidence. With varying degrees of
guilt or guilty knowledge, every man
of them, with one exception (Mr.
Blaine), has been obliged to confess
that at some time he had held this
stock, and at some %time-under stress
of conscience, let us hope, though that
is not fully proven-got rid of it. Now
let US go slowly over the list;
James A. Garfield, of Ohio, had ten
shares he never paid a dollar re-
ceived 1929, which after the investi-
cation began he was anxious to have
considered as a loan from Cakes Ames
to himself.
These men betrayed the trust of the
people, deceived their constituents,
and by their evasions and falschoods
confessed the transactions to be dis
graceful. Pass no resolution. Drop
it where it is. Remand the whole
business to the people.
New York Times, Feb. 10 1881
Ofthe members referred to-, Messrs.
Kelly and Garfield present a most
distressing figure. Their participation
in the Credit Mobilier affair is com
plicated by the most unfortunate
contradictions of testimony, which
the committee do not undertake to
u%nravel. The only possible comment
on their cases is hal had they taken
a perfectly upright course in the mat
ter, and refused to have anything to
do with the stock, no occasion for
contradiction could have arisen.
