Florida DefamerD.

More We think of il the more we are satisneo
that We have done Richard Lee injustice. he
lied about Florida it is true. He was dead
beat, has been proven, but he had manhood
enough about him to sign his name TO his SLAM
derous article. This is a quality that some other
dead beats do not possess. Last week there APP
peared a letter IN the Netc York Witness signed,
" A Presbyterian Clergyman" who goes on to
say that he spent few years in Florida, that it
is a sickly, unhealthy place; that he set out
grove of 600 trees and conld not live here, and
left that the State is so sickly and burdened
with sand flies, mosquitoes, snakes, Lizards and
alligators that man teels like giving up the
ghost all the time, and he would not wrong a
man by selling his grove TO him. This is virtue
that seldom exists even in the breast of clergy
man. We don't believe he is clergyman, but
some fraud that did as Lee wanted to, that is,
buy up piece of low swampy land because it
was cheap, and tried to settle it with people, and
failed. We are confident that if he will sign his
name We will prove that the above is true. We
have heard and known of men whose groves are
not for sale, on account of the immense income,
but this is the first case we have ever heard of
where man wouldn't sell for fear Of wrOnging
some one. Such Immaculate virtue should be
rewarded by our Legislature. He should have
signed bis bunch of lies "A Saint"

The Civil Service Bill.

This bill passed the Senate on Friday last by
vote OF 239 yeas TO s nays II authorizes the
President to appoint three commissioners, not
more than two of whom shall be of the same
political party. The commissioners, at his re-
quest, are to aid him in preparing rules for car
raging the ACT into effect, and these shall pro-
vide for opening competitive examinations for
testing the fitness of applicants for the public
service; that oil appointments within certain
limits shall be made from among those graded
highest as the result of such examinations; that
appointments shall be apportioned among the
States and Territories on the basis of population
that there shall be period of probation before
any absolute appointment; that promotions
shall be from the lower grades to The higher, on
the basis Of merit and competition, and certain
other provisions intended TO preserve the indie
pendence Of subordinate employees. The COM
mission is 10 select, in the various States where
vacancies are to be filed. examining boards from
Federal employees residing In those States, to
conduct the examinations; is 10 appoint chieJ

tions; ID to keep full records and make an an

IA Washington letter to the New York Sun
k..gs that Senator Hale has served notice ON the
I!tomoters of the Whiskey bill that he shall con-
A'der it his duty, by all means in his power, to
!. sssive to defeat it.
B y Senator Sherman has quite supplanted Sena-
I its Beck as the whiskey champion. II is not
\ iaspected, Of course that the millions in the bill
hssve had anything to do in bringing this about
;T:hat Senator's zeal certainly is extraordinary,
considering that Ohio is not half as much of q
|. Sshiskey State as Kentucky is. He is civil SER
;;vsce reformer, as any one knows, and early in
sks session stood up like patriot, which he is,
is1course, for that measure; but during the last
tcek he repeatedly tried to postpone that object
y! his first love and put whiskey ahead. In this
: failed, and largely on account of the able and
persistent Senator from Maine, who, 10 90 doing.
got only represents the sentiment of his own
/: sa,e but stands foremost in resisting the great.
sss raid yet on the public Treasury.
ssThe song which the Whiskey Ring are singing
dow 10 an old one In 1873, when they obtained
al extension of taxes similar to what they are
sssking now, they declared that If the boon was

Wisely, that had brought it about, and If they

ma cry of ruin. Give them second extension,

should prove true and we are treated with rise
of water, we can appreciate from twenty to
twenty-five feet. OF course it would flood some
of our low lands, but we have thousands OF acres
which twenty feet above that would still leave
plenty of dry ground to sport upon. The line
of our proposed railroad will be upon this
high level-an item to be borne in mind by those
proposing to take stock in the enterprise. We
are now surveying this part of the route for the
third time, and shall soon have the map ready
for the inspection of the General Assembly.
BY the last FLoRIDIAN see items relative TO
the sweet potato crop. Now there are persons
in Tallahassee who look upon the soil of our Is
land as very INFERIOR but what it produces tells
the story. This season, on three fourths of an
acre. worked up with a grub hoe and after plant
ing only hoed once, Mr.. William Smith raised
three hundred bushels of sweet potatoes. Our
County Surveyor measured the ground. One
hill produced thirteen and one-half pounds.
He estimated that had all the ground been in
hills twenty inches apart one way and four feet
the other and each could produce at the same rate,
an acre would yield fifteen hundred bushels !
How's thatfor James Island soil? When our rail
road is built and We get gardeners here who know
how to work the soil, there will be no section
of the State that will go ahead of us in early
vegetables and fruits; we certainly are two
weeks in advance of Tallahassee, and that is
quite an item in early crops
The hewn timber firms are getting ready TO
load foreign vessels, several of which ex-
pected this week. AS over one hundred are to
be loaded between this and June, it will make
business lively in our harbor. Just at this time
business is quite dull, but we think prospects
good and matters will liven up after the hol-
days.
The prospects of trweekly hack line be-
tween this place and Tallahassee give us en-
enlargement and will open direct line OF. com
munication we have long needed.
