Editor Of the Florida Agricult1vist:

Editor Of the Florida AgricultOvist;
We-some Of us--of this section OF
Florida, have dug, and scratched
hard tor the past seven or eight years
10 bring to the notice Of the outsid e
would, the fact that away down here
almost in the sea, there was a little
spot here and there of terra JSrnea un,
like, unto most other parts OF our
great United States. This unknown
but greatly blessed land, with all It's
health, wealth and elements OF
human comforts, has lain dormant
and slum bered far into the nineteenth
century, but as the constant drop
wore the stone, so the unfiaglng
efforts of those who labored long and
labored late, to awaken the giant,
now more than ever before have the
promise of success. immigration
sets this way, it having been nearly
proven that one has only to come,
get little fish oil-which is very
plentiful, acknowledgements his
belly and slide down the rainbow Of
a tropical cline to the great bag OF
gold at the bottom Oh, if halt a
dozen, or a handful, OF people five or
six years ago, could have only proven
this, what a great country would this
now have been but they could not
do so much at once, one man did one
thing, while another did something
else, thousand stones were turned
before they learned just what stones
the good things grew under. But /
do not mean to say that one quarter
OF our resources are brought to light,
but enough has been done to set all
hands to work trimming those ideas
that are at present on the surface,
away down in the unthought OF, there
sleeps millions, awaiting the magic
touch OF the modern yankee. There
are thousands of would be, incredu
lous people who. if they had come to
Florida several years ago, might
have now been in a position to have
reaped their portion OF the great
harvest which is upon us. A new,
aud perhaps long lease OF life, with
many, would have been portion OF
the boon. Who comes now, must
be year behind, and in many cases,
take back seat, besides, or pay dear
Tor a front one that is, so far as fruit
growing and gardening is concerned.
There Is an ulillDlted field for the
-.ssss=s4& -.----.s-ti ! s'.a.s-t !, es.sea,
OF wealth aud profit is the canning
and preserving OF our perlshable
fruits. There is an open field tor
speculation in fruits aud vegetables.
Several small steamboats,, and half a
dozen hotels AT certain points are
going to be much needed very
shortly. In short the industrious
will find plenty to do. and twelve
months in the year to de it in.

How Happiness is Secured.

Happiness is the absence of pain or
annoyance, and wherever there is pain
there is disease. A pain in the lower
portion OF the body indicates disorder
of some kind. If there is any odor or
color or deposit in the urine it means
disease and requires attention at once.
We have heard many OF our friends
speak OF the remarkable power of War
ner's Safe Kidney and Liver Cure and
are convinced there is nothing so GER
tain and valuable for all disorders OF
the urinary system both male and
female.

houses which deserve great credit
for their enterprise and energy is the
wholesale and retail boot and shoe

young men and comparatively re-
cent arrivals, they have built up a
Territorial reputation for the excel.
lence of their stock and the low
prices of their wares. Their large
store, at the corner of Congress and
Main streets, is literally packed
with every grade of boots and shoes
imaginable, and their taste in dis
play makes a visit to their estab-

The projected ship canal across
France from the Atlantic to the

depth Of 274 feet and a width Of
from 1l5 to 250 feet. The great
majority Of the French ironclads
will therefore be able to pass
through the canal in sea.going
trim, though few Of the heaviest
armorsd ships will have to be
lightened before making use of it.
The total length of the canal from
the neighborhood of Narbonne, on
the Mediterranean, to Bordeaux,
will be 2l9 nautical miles, and it Is
calculated that. including the time
taken to pass through the locks, a
ship will be able to traverse the

Mr.. l. J. Shaw come in from the
Mesquite plscers yesterday and re-
ports that the late heavy rains
have interfered somewhat with dry
washing for the past week. Some
very rich strikes have been made
there in the last few days and
more attention has been paid to
quartz claims than heretofore.
Messrs. Thurlow, Downey and Ly-
ons are still taking out an i'm =.
mense amount of gold from their
claim. This is one Of the richest
claims in the district and will
make millionaires OF all parties in
terested. Mr.. Shaw has just fin
ished the assessment work on the
Essex" and at fifteen feet down
in the shaft struck some very good
looking quartz carrying free gold.
He will still continue work on
this mine and put down shaft OF
100 feet, when we expect some
very rich developments. This mine
is the property of G. G. Lips, of Los
Angeles, and 4. q. Las0n, of Yuma.

Gala Event at the Cosmopolitan

For some weeks past Gen. F. j.
Marshall, wife and son, have been
visiting Los Angeles. The Genera
beguiled portion Of the time by
paying a flying visit to Arizona
and inspecting the mines of that
territory. His son, Mr.. f. G. Mar.
shall, however, had more impor.
tant business on hand. Amongst
the residents of Los Angeles, for
some time past, have been Mrs. j.
Gerrish and her charming and ac-
complished daughter, Miss Emma
Gerrish, both of whom formerly
lived In Denver. Years ago young
Marshall and Miss Gerrish were
thrown together and an attach
ment spraDg up between them
which was yesterday, through the
fundamentally Of Rev. e. s. Bird
sail, made indissoluble in the
holy bands of matrimony.
After the marriage ceremony a
select company sat down to u
sumptusus lunch ut the Cosmopol-
itan Hotel, which mine host
Denker had caused to be prepared
with the skill and lavishness
which have won him we'll deserved
encomiums as caterer. All that
Los Angeles could furnish Of fruit
and flora was provided in profusion
and arranged with great taste.
The health of the young couple
was drunk in flowing bumpers of
Veuve Clicquot and Louis Roeder-
er. Toasts in unison with the fes-
tive event were proposed and hap
PLY responded to.
Amongst those present were Gen.
F. J. Marshall and wife, Frank @.
Marshall and wife (the newly mar
ried pair), Mrs. Miles, Mrs. r..
Whitsett, Mrs. J. Gerrish (the
mother of the bride), Miss Miles,
w. P. Ferris and wife, Col. J. p.
Airy and wife, Rev. 4. s. Birdsall,
Col. j. s. Morgan and wife, ex-
Gov. John G. Downey and wife
and Mr.. A. II. Denker and wife.
We take special pleasure in
wishing the young couple long life
and happiness. The Messrs. Mar
shall. both father and sou, have
made specially agreeable impress
sion upon our people during their
short sojourn amongst us. Gen.
+. ]. Marshall IL one of the most
prominent citizens of Colorado. and
is "a mining man of great reputa-
tiOn, experience and success, hav.
ing disposed of over million and
u half dollars worth of mining
property during the past year. 1t
gives us deal of qualification
to add that the old gentleman is
charmed with Los Angeles aud
that the probability is great that,
after he has adjusted his business
affaiys in Denver, he will take up
his permanent home am ongst us.
We shall welcome him very heart

should he carry out his partially
formed purpose.
