The weekly Floridian. [volume] (Tallahassee, Fla.) 1867-19??, 1880-11-05

DR.. Talbot was mysteriously mnr7
dered at Marysville, Mo. Some members
of the family had suspicion that his SON
Albert was the assassin, because he was
known to have waited very impatiently
to inherit the property; but in the abb
sence of proof nobody dared make an
accusation. So q detective was hired.
He went to live in a house close by, pre-
tending to be a farmer, and instructed
his pretty wife, whom he introduced as q
sister, to gain Albert's affection. This
she was quickly successful in dong, and
within month she had promised to
marry him. Then she set about inculpa-
ting him. and he eventually confessed his
guilt to her. His arrest followed.

Some time since we published letter
written to Mr. Ingram from Gainesville
giving an estimate OF the profits Of market
gardening. 1t was copied by several pa
psrs, among others by the Dispatch, pub
lished at Live Oak, Fla, by Col. ID. ii.
Elliot. From late issue of the Dispatch
we clip the following letter from Key
West, which fully explains itself and gives
the actual profit made on one acre of to-

Work for Unmarried Women.

The Washington correspondent of the
Louisville Courier-Journal writes: every
woman Graves a husband and children, but
all do not get their cravings. Well, what is
TO be done in such case How does the ar
Cument apply to such, that womans sphere
Is the family circle, and that she should
not unsex herself by coming in contact
with the rough world? But suppose cireum-
stances force her to this contact, should she
not have the same facilities aud advantages
as the opposite sex? l will admit that some
women make poor mothers, but there are
lust as many Incompetent men. As rule,
women are honest, diligent and economical
where they are dependent upon their own
exertions. Nothing takes the nonsense out
of them sooner than work. When they are
too busy to give much time to dress, they
think less of captivating, less of the vanities
and even the laxuries that wealth brings
1t is true that hard, earnest work depraFes
women of some of their prettiness and at
tractigeuess; it lessons their chances of mar
riage, but that is the penalty circumstances
force her to pay and all the more honor shall
be accorded to her for accepting her destiny
uncomplainingly. Would it not be better
IF men, instead of ridiculing and satirizing
the efforts of women should join hands with
them and help them work out the problem?

Presentation of Gold-Headed Cane
to Gen. w. s. Featherston.

At an informal meeting of members of
the House of Representatives on Friday
evening. 9Th inst, an elegant gold headed
cane was presented to Gen. W. ;. Feather
ston. Hon. E. o. Sykes, of Monroe, had
been selected to present the cane, and IN
doing so, spoke as follows;
MIR. SPEAKER: 1t is not less an ancient
that il is a beautiful custom, when one Is
truly distinguished above his fellows, that
his comrades should express their recoghl-
ton of the fact through some tangible 10
Zen of regard. although in itself 1t may ne
4ria;no and insirnifcant. On this occasion
I,ernit me to say, that the members OF TINS
House are not unmindful OF the dlstih-
.yuished services of one of its number, VINO,
whether in treading the seductive paths o.
peace, or tramping DER the rugged roaos OF !
war was ever found at his post, ana Fe"og
for dutv; in the language of another, who
has been as true to his people, as true to his
State. as true to his country, as the needte /
tn the pole without the needles variations. (
throughout the present laboriOus term, and /
I emphasize La60riOus holding three sessions /
daily much of the time; and in addition to
the usual amount of local and general legis-
Iation, the extra duty of adopting and pass
ing upon a code of laws and now about to
conclude our labors within the space of time
usually occupied by legislative bodies, /
trust Mr.. Speaker, that it is no more indel-
icate than true, to say, that for this, the
people and the State are immeasurably in
debted 70 the ability and untiring energy Of
the patriot, soldier son of Marshall. ! row
present YOU with this memento, a reminder
of our appreciation of the Hon. W. :.
Featherston, with the remark, throughout
the long suffering of our State, when the
hearts Of the people were wrung with grief.
when the hopes of her people were shattered
and crushed to the earth, they ever turned
to him, as the pilgrim to the Holy City, to
lead them through the gloom and darkness.
Now that the bright sunshine OF peace and
prosperity has dawned upon US, and once
more we are assured of a new lease Of en-
ioyment of our constitutional rights, these
services will be remembered by grateful
and loving people, and in honoring this
great chieftain, they will but shed addi-
tional lustre on themselves and glory upon
the great Commonwealth of Mississippi.
