We have repeated calls tor back
numbers of this paper which we are
unable to meet. The price of paper
is so great that we cannot afford to
print more than fifty extra numbers,
and the demand for specimen copies
in nine cases out OF ten, unac-
companied by money, takes up all
of these. In few weeks more those
subscriptions which began with the
present volume will have expired
and they should take care to renew
in time, if they wish a complete file.

we are much SJ1oasrass see by
the following advertisement from the
Sanford Journal that our sister coun.
ty continues in the high road to pros
perity. A generous rivalry is COM
mendable but the mean, contempt,
BILE scurrilous method adopted by
some people to advance their own
locality is reprehensible and will in
the end rest on themselves. The
Journal says:
The past season has been one OF the
most prolific of good for Orange
county that she has ever experienced.
Railroads have been commenced
and completed: hotels have been
built, settlers have come TO us and
can be numbered az hundreds; and
though their energy and perseverance
hundreds of acres Il wild land have
been brought into cultivation: saw

hands have not beel idle from lack
of employment. ="

merous enterprises ave sprung into
existence that will live employment
not only to those Interested, but TO
the producer and la3orer, and pro-
ducts that were almost valuless
before, that can not be utilized at
home, will make paying crops.
What effect has al this had ? The
merchant, the tarmet the lawyer and
doctor, the laborer, md last, but not
least, the newspaper man and mine
host, have felt it, tie county and

The way to succeed i it is by united

THE FLORIDA AGRICULTURIST.

/ tages of the State. He is doing a
good work for us. the Louisville
Agricattatrist says: ftA
Our esteemed townsman, Mr.. L.
E. G. Brinly, has for the past three
months been in Florida, and returned
few days since to this city. His
visit TO that state has made him a
warm friend to the orange and
banana state. Mrs. Brinly had for
several months suffered intensely
with a cough, and the trip to Florida
was made to try its salubrious eli.
mate upon her impaired health, and
we are rejoiced to know that her
health has greatly improved, and
hope to see her return to home en-
lirelv restored so soon as warm
weather shall come. He has every
confidence in the belief that Florida
has the most healthy climate in the
United States. Besides its pure,
balmy atmosphere he thinks the cul-
tivation of oranges is very healthy to
an empty pocket book. The i'm
provements in that state for the past
few years have been wonderful, and
the pine forest being cut down and
orange and lemon groves are taking
their place. Mr.. Brinly presented
us with some lemons not quite ripe,
which he pulled from the trees, aud
says that in many cases that the fruit
from one orange tree will sell for
$500 to $500 per season,
and one acre will sustain forty to fifty
trees, and the crop never fails. The
budded trees are about six years
coming into bearing. He showed us
a radish which measured about ten
inches in circumference, and he saw
sweet potatoes which weighed eight
pounds each. Many of our citizens
have taken the orange fever, under
the influence Of Brinly's letters, and
wish to move to Florida, and we
would not be surprised if Louisville
should next fall lose number o!
her most enterprising and worthy
citizens.

Tie VOluSia Bar.

Something has been done at last
to get a miserable appropriation tor
the Volusia bar, as may be seen by

accomplish the work, we feel assured
the next Congress will give an addi-

The $4,000 is better than nothing,
but when will Legislatures learn wis

To the New Settlers.

There are so many new settlers
now locating in the State that few
words OF advice may be beneficial to
them. In the first place they must
shake off the idea that they know
more than the people who have been
located here for years, many OF those
who came before them have been
wrecked by that conceit, and had the
brag taken out of them before they
had been here very long. A man
from a banking house may know
very well about money matters, and
a dry goods man may know about
cloth, but that kind OF knowledge
will not help him in the least in grow.

that they are authority on orange
