Jennings & Sons.

ESPECIAL attention is directed this
morning to the advertisement of
Jennings & Sons which appears in
The HERALD this morning, and
which invites the public to an ex,
animation Of their stovs der art
ment. This firm has long made
specially of stoves and hardware
and enjoy q certain and most deslr-
able trade in this regard. Not only
are they personally satisfied of the
merits of the wares carried by them,
but they have secured and published
reliable references as indicative of
the manner in which the public
view tLeir goods. 1t is a mistaken
idea that the firm only WHOLESALERS
stoves; they both retail and whole
sale them, and considering the pat
ronage they received, the firm could
ill-afiord TO cut of so valuable a
branch of their custom.

A scientist has discovered that a man
in walking six miles an hour all day in
reality accomphshes work equal to that
of quarter-hOrse engine. This is Of i'm
portance, as it shows that in reality the
tramp is not loafer, but steady work
man. 1t is of further importance because
it shows that the reportorial walking
match, soon to take place in Jacksonville,
is to be run on a regular steam schedule
as long as the boys can hold their
wind.

Complimentary.

Prof. B. F. Baker has the following to
say of Florida in his last letter from Pa
latka to the Searcy, Ark, Enterprise:
The general healthfuIness of Florida is
proverbial Statistics bear me out in
what I am about to give. According to
army reports, the deaths from remittent
fever have been less than in any other
part of the union. Inthe Middle division
the ratio'is 1 death to So cases of fever; in
the Southern division, to "a; in Texas.
1 to rs; in California, / to 1872; in New
Mexico, to 14S; in Florida. to 218. As
a health resort for those suffering from
pulmonary complaints Florida is I'M
equaled, And with its bright sunlight
days, starry nights, sea breezes, and
equable temperature, Florida is. in nv
opinion, the healthiest country on Gods
footstool. Leaving out the hammock
land, which correspond to our river and
swamp lands there is not a climate I'M
der the broad armament that will equal
this salubrity-it may appropriately be
styled the sanitarium of the world"
And then he has the following compli-
mentary remarks on Palatka, his future
home ''Palatka, like Searcy, is water
ing place and white sulphur spouting up
from artesian wells $50 feet deep-it is
equal to the Searcy water but the tenn
perature is much higher. Five hundred
people come here in a day-as many as
go to Searcy IN a season. The Putnam
Hotel registered $500 visitors in three
months from January to April. There
are seven large hotels and twelve board
lighthouses, all filled, not less than $4,000
people have been registered in various
| houses since December list, Vanderbilt,
Gould, Cameron, Hancock among the
number. This is susceptible Of being
made one of the finest cities in America.
Undoubtedly it has a bright future. It
now has 5000 inhabitants, and not a
! death since Ihave been here-three weeks
only seven last year"

EDITOR DAILY NEWS.
The writer read with much interest the
suggestion of the Hon. P. P. Bishop in
reference to the national platform of the
Democratic party on the tariff. With all
Difference to those views, which he be-
ieves are held by the mass of the party
the writer timidly suggests something
like this:
1. As there is no longer a necessity to
protect infant industries in the United
States and the General Government has
simply to collect a sufficient revenue to
support the Government and meet the
obligations of the United States there
fore, the system Of collecting revenue by
an impost Of customs duties should be
abandoned as soon as practicable without
a sudden arrangement of those indus
tries connected with that system.
?. That the fair and reasonable way to
impose taxes is in proportion to property,
and not in proportion to consumption.
3. That under system which raised
revenue, on a basis of property, then the
burden Of the support of the Government
would be based in equity; each citizen
being required to pay tax in proportion
to the benefit received.
4. That in addition to the equity of
collecting revenue from property, instead
Of through the custom house system,
there would be much less expense and
less temptation to political corruption;
and that as the people each year would
be made sensible Of what each one paid
to the support of the United States Gov
eminent, it would cause them to take a
/ more active interest in its management,
which would be Of untold value to the
American people in perpetuatiOn Of their
rights and liberties secured by an eco
| nOmical and pure government.
The above is offered for reflection sim
/ ply, by a CITIZEN.

An Exciting Chase.

On Friday, as Mr. J. E. Lucas steamer
Princess was coming from Green Cove to
Palatka with pile driver in tow, a large
buck was spied in the river, when the
steamer cut loose from the driver and
made chase. The buck was a good swim
mer, and though the boat can make thir-
teen miles an hour, it took it about an
hour to run the buck down. When cap
tured, it proved to be one of the largest
and finest bucks ever seen in Florida.

a Howl from the Thunderer.

The London Times leader of Tuesday, the
18th, says: "It is intolerable. We are ex-
posed to this succession of plots from nation
protesting to be friendly with us, and with
which we only desire to live in peace and uni
ty. We know that the Americans are aware of
the identity of the plotters of the outrages, and
it would be no hard task for the American gov
eminent to end the whole thing We have done
our part. We have made the private manufac-
ture of explosives penal crime. The result
is conspirators have been compelled to change
their ground of operations and find in America
safe refuge, and a government which will not
interfere with their operations.
It is impossible that we shall submit to this.
Dynamiters are common enemy which nc
civilized country can tolerate .tho,lt disgrace
These miscreants have only doile what Amcri-
can journals have been allowed to advocate
for what rewards have been only promised
and for what public meetings have applauded
The time has arrived to address strong re-
monstrance to the>government allowing this tt
be continued. Respectable Americans art
ashamed of the inaction of the L rulers. They
must now join us and make their voices heart
and obeyed It remains for America to aid us
as she alone can nip the mischief; but our de
nland is one that a civilized nation is bounG
not to disregard"

In LOVE With a. CnaCnrua11.

Milwaukee, Special-A scandal is about to
break out on the West side, 1t seems that the
wife of well-known and quite wealthy gentle
man became enamored Of her coachman. The
matter was talked about by the neighbours until
it finally reached the ears of the husband. He
taised q terrible row, and at once discharged
the ambitious carriage driver. The gentle
mems business keeps him down town from an
early hour in the morning until Late in the af-
ested neighbors that the discharged driver
visits the house of his former employer with
great regularity almost daily. The scandalous
affair has been gossiped about for weeks, and
many people are charitable enough to believe
that the wife is insane. Last summer she was
frequently seen sitting in a shady nook, with
the coachman by her side. Other manifesto
tons of her regard for the driver have been
noticed. The affair will probably end in di-
yorce suit. -.
