A NEW six-oared boat, built by
Rogers, came from San francisco
for the Myrtle Boat Club yesterday.
1t is fine model, of eastern pine,
40 feet long, ID inches deep and 3
feet inches beam, and has sliding
seats and latest improvements. The
new racer was tried last evening and
did not work entirely satisfactorily.
The vessel seems to be too frail and
it does not sit well at the bow. His
Majesty received whale boat by
the same vessel yesterday, and he
has ordered Messrs. Roland & John
son to make some alterations to it..
The boat may be perfect as whale
boat, but there is too much timber
for racing purposes. She will be
cut down a few inches and the seats
lowered.

GERMANY AND SPAIN.

Germany has acknowledged the
Spanish occupation of zap, and
Spain has granted Germany the
privilege of free navigation and
commerce in the waters of the
Carolines and the right of establish
ing coaling station on one of the
islands.
A Rome despatch of the 18th
says: A meeting of the personages
charged with reviewing the Carolines
question and celebrating the Papal
decision respecting the matter, has
been held. The meeting appeared
disposed to admit Spain's sovereignty
over the Caroline Islands, while at
the same time deeming Germany's
conduct in occupying the Island of
zap eXcusable, owing to a misap-
prehcnsion which has existed regard
ing the Spanish occupation of Il
number OF the islands in question.

Grant in Repartee.

| remember hearing conversation
between Gen. Grant and Kentucky
girl at the St Louis Merchants Ex-
change in 1875, when President Grant
was visiting the st. Louis Fair. A
number of ladies were introduced to
the President, whereupon he spoke in
very high terms of St. Louis, the fair,
etc. "You are mistaken, Mr.. Presi.
dent; we are not from St. Louis,
laughingly, said one of the girls; eve
are from Kentucky, a very State, you
know, which possesses three things all
men of taste must appreciate" Smil-
ingly, the President asked her what
they were. She answered, 1--WE have
the fastest horses, the prettiest womeni
and the finest whisky in the world"
The President replied, "Your horses
are justly renowned; l have some on
my farm near here; yourself and
party prove the correctness of your
second observation, but whisky is one
of the things thatrequiro age, and your
men consume il 50 fast that it rarely
has fair chance to become good"

could not make a long speech, he was

Scientific Discoveries.

Prof. Lawrence johnson, of Mass,
and of the u. S. Geological Survey, in
exploring Alachua and Levy counties,
has made several important discoveries,
which throw glimmer of light upon
the geology of Florida, and the condi-
tions of the inhabitants of the Peninsula
in past ages. Just south of the Alachua
county line, in the northeast corner of
Levy county, upon Mr.. j. j. Nixon S
land, Prof. Johnson found several speci-
mems and skeletons of animals which
relatively belong to not far distant
period. In piles, and somewhat mixed,
he found eight or nine specimens in all.
Among these were the remains of a
mastodon, two or three specimens of the
rhinoceros, a large stag, camel, fully
as large as the Arabian camel, but in
structure more allied to the llama also
tapir, very much like the South Amer
lean tapir, which lives in swampy pla-
ces two teeth of some -carniverous ami
NAL allied to the tiger and panther; one
set of teeth and bones of hippopota-
anus, several crocodlles or alligators,
and innumerable other bones not identi-
fed. Evidences go to establish the fact
that the territory south of Alachua was
at one time large fresh water lake, the
high lands of Gainesville and to the
northeast at the time, forming it's north
ern banks The area of this lake is
traced northeast of Gainesville and
southwark as far as the Withlacoochee
River, which forms the southern boun-
Diary line of Levy, the southwestern line
of Marion, and part of the eastern
boundary of Sumter, thence running
through the southeastern portion of
fernando, and thence east into the saw
grass, marsh or swampy lands, where
Sumpter is divided from Polk. This
lake is shown to have been 10 or II
miles wide in some parts and forty miles
at others. This lake Prof Johnson has
Professionally named Arredondo Lake
