"Will tho commissioners take any steps to
put in order those school buildings which
have been found to bo in dangerous condi-
tion?p asked a REPUBLICAN, reporter last
night Of Judge Edmonds.
"Wo asked congress last year for special
appropriations 1 think, was the
amount--fo romcdy all tho defects found by
the inspector of buildings in tho school
houses of the district. Congress gave us
$4,000. All this was expended in correcting
tho most fragrant evils. We commenced first
on those structures which seemed tho most
to demand remedying."
"rho Thompson and the Lincoln buildings
are both of them dangerous" said tho re-
porter, "and demand instant attention and
extensive alterations"
ave shall, of course, soo that they are at
tended to-"
"Will you ask congress for another specific
appropriation for that purpoeo?'
Next year we shall"
"Will these buildings 20 without altera-
ton, then, until after the close of the present
fiscal year--until after next June in fact?'
There is specific amount in the appro-
priation asked for the current expenses of the
schools, which is devoted to repairs, that may
be made available for these alterations We
have had these buildings inspected over and
have called for another inspection. The first
one was very complete, however, and all al
terations will be made in pursuance of the
suggestions given in that report In fact, the
forthcoming report of tho inspector will be-
so far as suggestions for alterations and reme-
dying of evils are concerned, renewal of the
former one"
you see tho difficulty under which we
worked" continued the commissioner. Con
gross gave us very much less money to put
these buildings in order than the amount alb
solutely necessary. 1t was all expended on
those objects that appeared to be most worthy
of immediate attention. You may rest as
sured, however, that tho promptest measures
will DO taken to remedy not merely n real
evil, but anything calculated to give the i'm
preston of danger"

People should be cautious how
they use the barbed wires for fenc-
ing, for several fine horses have been
cruelty injured IN coming in 1contac,
with it. and one gentleman lost val
liable mule from the same cause. We
would recommend wooden rail at
the top Of the fence, as the animals
cannot see the wire, and therefore
run against it. Those putting barbed
wire across old roads, should give
notice in the paper that such roads
have been closed.

this canal at any and every point as
it crosses the peninsula.
If it would moao benefit the people
to the amount of a million year, its
benefits will increase at least ten fold
in four years--about the rate at
which property and valuables are now
increasing. And we have no doubt
that in five years after it's completion
those who reaped one dollar from its
opening, could realize ten for the one.
We view this enterprise as one of
those which will add untold wealth
to the State. We may attempt TO
approximate that wealth; but with
no certainty, for capital seeks points
where it can and will be multiplied ::
and no mortal can tell how many
men of capital, or how many COM
handing millions will be attracted
here by the success of this enterprise,
and how many hundreds of smaller
enterprises will be the outgrowth
therefrom; how many towns spring
up, as if by magic, along the route,
and how many thousands of men of
eneigized muscle and skilled labor
will be added to our population.
1t will be the opening door to an
era of prosperity and industry not
now dreamed of. We are glad to
learn that the company of wealthy
men of other States who designed
the construction of this great work,
have received charter to do so.

RIcULURIST.
Editor Of the Florida Ageiculturist:
Will you please examine the leaves
of citrus trees near you, and ask
your readers to do the same, and tell
me if a whitish dust is found in any
quantity. If it be, l will condense
the report and send the result to you
for publication, as / think it is a mat
ter of great Importance to orange
growers.
About the first of the month l
found whilst examining some scale
insects, a number OF white specks,
quite regular in form under a pocket
magnifier. The microscope resolved
these specks into eggs laid in coup
les. At this date they have increas-
ed enormously. I counted within a
space, one.twenty.fifth of an inch
square, one hundred and sixty couples
OF eggs.
The ordinary orange leaf averages
about five square inches of area, so
that one leaf can accommodate four
hundred and twenty thousand of
these eggs.
believe it is the egg Of the Ratst
Mite. Rusting the fruit is only a
small portion OF the injury done to
the citrus family by this insect.
1t your readers in different parts
of the State will send to me, postal
card, when they find this dust like
egg, we can find out over what area
it has spread, and as l am keeping
watch of the eggs to find the first
hatchings, l shall be able to say if it
DE the Rust Mite, or some other sim
liar pest, and then by experiment
find out how to exterminate it.

press and AdyertiSer, that our sub,
scribers may see what is thought o
ms by our cousins in the old country
1t is our aim to make our paper first

should be widely and literally sup
ported. Get your friends and neigh
bors therefore to subscribe at once
and they will find that SO invested
in our paper viii be OF great profit
to them:
People here in England, as rule.
are often found ready to decry the class
Of literary food with which our Ameri-
can cousins fill the columns of their
newspapers. To some the matter is
vulgar, or at least showing a departure
from the classical to others it savours
too much of the sensational while
some also are found who refuse to give
the papers place among literary efforts
at all. This is not as it should be,
While we are willing to allow that many
American newspapers contain matter
which would not be admitted within the
columns Of the English press, especially
in the way OF trashy quack ADVERTISE
ments, yet the exception is not the rule,
and we can point to many which from
time to time have come into our pos
session, which not only show much lite
rary ability and taste bute are quite
equal to some of the s.burning and
shining lights of the English Press.
There is piquancy and brightness even
in the way common paragraphs of local
events are dashed of, which is 9 con-
spicuous by its absence' in the matter-of-
fact stereotyed way pressmen in this

everything Gu is not of momentous
character, ans throws a CLINT of sun
shine on the pieces of spicy prose
which makes he reader speak them

healthy recres IN to the listener. Types
of this kind aHnewspaper are now bes
fore us in TN Florida Times, The

zion of the same, and The FLORIDA
