Silver SPRINGS Park,
Florida.

The enterprsing managers of Silver Springs
Park IL. N. Mowry, president. No. 179 Broadway
New-York), had full page advertisements In Last
Sundays editions of The Nec- York World, Tines.
and TRIBUNE, and before that time they wrote US
that TO- 900 persons had answered their advertise
ment. 1t is safe to say that 10000 more will
respond to the advertisements in last Sundays
papers. According TO the returns in the clerks
office deeds have been recorded to than 5000
lots and every mail brings greater or less number
of deeds for record from new purchasers Settlers
are arriving almost daily and DR.. Granville, our
correspondent on the spot, and one of the pioneer
purchaser that is in the least dissatisfied with his
ne " home. The sound of the axe, TIE saw and the
hammer are heard in all directions. In fact, new
town is sprlngng into life.
At Silver Spring, one of the most beautiful ana
wonderful curiosities of nature. stnpendous i'm
has lis large three-story hotel nearly completed
and will soon add to the wonderful beauties OF the
basin of the spring by electric lights which he
proposes to place at the bottom of it as well as
above it and along its shores Nothing that will
add to its beauty and attractions will be left
undone. Pleasure boats lighthouses, garden and
Conservatives filled with tropical Towering plants
and hotel that for comfort and elegance will not
be surpassed by any of the many splendid hotels in
this State, will be among its attractions. Indeed.
Silver Spring will be an elysium, the beauties OF
which it will be impossible to be counterfeited by
any place in the world. Thousands will visit there
annually. We shall expect to See a she'll road from
here there in a very short time, and dummy and
street cars running between the two places as well
as between the Springs and Silver Springs Park.
And if people continue to buy as they have done
for the past few weeks, and if only small portion
of those locate who buy, the three cities will soon
Join and be one.
The West IN its palmest days, never attracted
so much attention as Florida is to-day. This means
something People are not going to endure the
Igors of Northern winter when the climate, pro-
auctions and capabilities of Florida become fully
known. We are now arriving at that point. The
South. and Florida especially, Is undergoing new
birth The dangers attending that event have
passed. The negro is no longer a disturbing
element-politcs have been forced to minor
nloce- race ard sectional prejudices have been
overcome, and people from all sections OF the Union
and all parts of the world are welcomed, and their
locality their politcs or their religion unquos
toned.
II took long time to reach this point, but having
reuched it, the State Will now bound forward with
. r,,d speed. A large portion of the population
and the wealth of the North will be poured into
Florida at a ratio the like of which will be sur
rrise even to the rapidly growing cities and States
of the great Northwest.
These are not fancies of the imagination nor
newspaper bombast. They are not even predictions
tt ore merely the assertion of things crystaiziRg
into such solid shapes that must be plain to
avery one who reads the daily newspapers 1t ID
NOW certain to use the language of General Cham
berlain that Florida is destined to become popu-
lous. wealthy aud great State
