Tampa Tribune; Mr.. T. B. Ellis, liv-
ing in Polk county, near the Marlborough
river, informs us that he made on one
horse farm this year 5000 pounds seed
cotton and goo bushels of corn. He esti-
mates his potato crop at 800 bushels, and
his syrup crop at s barrels. Billie Cor
napacho, the Indian youth that is being
educated by Captain F. A. Hendry, at
Fort Myers, is said to be learning very
fast, and is quite an apt scholar. Gen.

The Wa lido Cracker thus describes the
fruit farm of DR.. NJ. A. Gushing, near that
place: The first tree was cut on this
place about Two years ago, and it is now
a picture beautiful TO behold Every
thing is properly and thoroughly done !;
the drainage is good, the lands are laid
out and the trees planted in the
most perfect order imaginable, and they
are all in that thrifty and vigorous COM
ditiOn which indicates proper attention
and practical knowledge We found grow
ing there oranges, peaches, grapes of sew
eral varieties, figs, tea, camphor, rice,
peas, tomato yes, and many kinds of beau
tiful flowers. and all combined, form a
model pictur e of loneliness, beautiful to
the eye and gratifying to the soul. His
first peach tree was planted one year ago
last March, and this year be- gathered i
crop of $500 as fine peaches as we have
ever seen. His rice crop will be proper
tionately large, and his second crop of
peas for this year, is now in full BEARING.
His grape vines were heavily fruited, and
his fig trees are in bearing, and all from
the wild woods in the short space of two
years.

Death sentence COMMITTED.

Sah-quah-nee, an Indian of the Sac
and Foxs agency, was sentenced to DO hung to-
morrow, Mt Fort Smith, for the murder of white
amau about two years ago. The President yester-
day committed the sentence of death to imprison-
ment for life This act Of the Executive was done
upon the recommendation Of the judge, the men,
bers of the jury, and the district attorney who
tried the criminal. The facts proven in the case
show that the murdered man, while travelling to-
ward his home stopped at the hut Of sah-quah-
nee, in the Indian agency above named, and
asked to be supplied with meal or something to
eat. The food was given him he was treated
kindly by the Indian and his family; he babe
them goodbye and started off ON foot toward his
home, some miles distant. Immediately after his
departure Sab qunh.nee picked up his rifle, and
getting upon the trail of the traveller, overlook
and shot him dead, took the murdered mans
scalp left the body TO be Gated by buzzards and
yultures, and quietly returned home and exhib-
tied his trophy, There had been no quarrel nor
any cause for the murder whatever; the act was
done in sheer devilishness or wild savagery.
The judge, district attorney, and jury do not pre-
tend to offer anything In extenuation of the
crime, but they argue that hanging has no terror
for the Indian compared with his dread of impris-
onmcnt for life therefore the recommendation
