Beginning at the main entrance we will note
in order the changes and new exhibits which
have been made or added since Tuesday evening
The first to attract attention is the floral exhibit
from Tallahassee. This exhibit, consisting of
cut flowers, attracted universal attention and ad-
miratiop- Its tasteful arrangement under the
careful supervision of Mrs Myers brought out
Its beauties, and could not have been improved
upon. The collection embraced fine specimens
of the azalea, datura gladiolus helioirope, Gala
lily, japonicas in wonderful profusion and vsri-
ETY., violets pansies, roses in great variety rare
lot Of geraniums. the fragrant olea, and a hun
dred other blooms, as varied In form, color and
perfume as the hues of the rainbow Additional
supplies of flowers freshly cut. will be found in
this department to-day, and every day during
the Fair.
THE LEON COUNTY EXHIBIT.
Additions have also been made to this excel
lent collection, consisting of q rice huler, In
vented In Middle Florida tubs of lard and bags
of grain and other products of the hill county of
Florida Visitors are surprised at this display,
as It shows class of products differing some
what nom those chiefly grown in the Peninsula
Many strangers expressed themselves as being
curious TO visit this section well as that of the
Indian river country, whose exhibit also attracts
more than usual attention, and will be noticed
moro 10 detail hereafter.

The third day of the fair was the field day.
The grounds were thronged with carriages and
the buildings crowed to excess with visitors

the managers of our fairs shall have offered in

Daily Union, Feb. al

The secone day of the fair opened auspiciously,
the weather being cooler and the attendance
greatly increased. The exhibits were not all in
and the different departments arranged until
near the close Of the day. Ii is an embarrassing
feature that entries are made and additions to the
exhibits allowed TO come in after the opening of
the fair. The first two days do not convey an
adequate idea of the products, and those who 20
away without later visit are liable TO underes-
innate the resources of the State.

railroad, and the calculation is astonish-
ing. He says;
"The total saving to the whole country
in The cost of moving merchandise from
1870 to 1879, inclusive, a period OF ten
years. as compared TO tue rates charged
from 1866 TO 1869, inclusive, has been
81 200 OO0 900, or 100000 OCO more than
the reduction of the national debt since
the war ended. In the case of the Cen
t.al the charge for moving 944l, ,2l3 tons
of freight in 1879 was SlS,2sO,55O, the
rate per ton per mile being 1881 cents.
Had the charges been as high as IL
1869. the transportation of the same
freight would have st Sli,920 800, or
9jG7 cents per ton per mile. The New
York Central line does about one
twentieth Of the railroad business Of the
United States The conclusion Is obvious
that the reduction Of the transportation
tax adds vastly TO the amount OF capital
available for use in further railroad
construction and in other ways
Mr.. Atkinson thinks that the farmers
Of the West secure large proportion OF
tF 'eduction, as the statistics of the New
" market clearly show. THE aver
az ,rices in that city of given quality
of hour, wheat. corn, oats, beef, pcrk,
lard, butter and wool in 1880 Were only
a fraction less than in 1869. The cost OF
moving thirteen tons of merchandise
made up Of these nine articles from
Chicago to New York in 1869 was $50,
and in 1879 sol, the difference being
Sl2l. As the New York price was about
the same in each year, the Western
producers aud sellers received the
gain"
In most of the Western States the rail
road corporations have been put upon
their good behavior % by the constrnc-
ton OF rival lines; (2) by the right Of the
| Legislatures under the constitution to
take the property and dispatches of in
corporated companies snd subject them
| to public use, the same rs private prop
erty: so the police power OF the state
can be exercised al any time 10 prevent
| corporations from SO conducting thell
business as to Infringe upon the equa
rights Of individuals and the State al
large; 4) the power of the Legislature u
annul any charter that it has granted
whenever the business Of the company Il
so conducted that it becomes injurious
TO the public welfare, and 90 the pop1
lar iealousythat exists IN the community
ogainst the overreaching policy of cor
porations. Herein lies the safety OF th'

A HOTEL in the exact shape Of an elc-
phant has been built at Atlantic City.
The idea, of course, is to draw excur-
sionists by means Of the novelty. The
structure is eighty-six feet long and
sixty-fve feet high. Stairways inside
the legs lead up to big restaurant and
other rooms in the body, while on the
back is a car, forming a good place OF
outlook. The exterior is painted and
sanded so a, to resemble an elephants
skin, except for the windows. The cost
was 500 900.

There are now sixteen railroad COM
panics in the United States, each Of
which controls and operates more than
900 miles of road. The Chicago, Mil
waukee and ST. Paul, which has 3,627
miles, is the longest of all, although its
debt is comparatively small. The Union
Pacific has debt three times as large as
the st. Paul, with track half as long, but
reports earnings nearly five times as
large. The New York Central is the
most profitable road in the country uet
