The Coast Line Canal

From the 50. 4 ugustjne (FJG.) WeskLV.
There is no other section in Florida in
which the inhabitants Of st. Augustine
and st. Johns county are 80 deeply inter-
ested as the Halifax and Indian river
country; not that all within our own mu-
nicipal and county borders, is not entitled
to and deserving Of first claim upon our
attention; but the development OF the one
benefits the other, and their interests are
as inseparable in a commercial point OF
view as the waters OF old ocean herself
The gigantic work now we'll adj
vanced, and indeed, we may say
rapidly nearing completion-of construct
ing the Coast Line canal from st. Angus
tine TO Key West under the direction OF
one Of our own tOwnsmen, the Hon. John
WescOtt, will when finished and its i'm
portance known contribute 10 the pros
perity Of St. Augustine and the entire
east coast to a degree not dreamed OF in
the philosophy OF our day, and TO be I'M
derstOOd and appreciated only when the
east coast becomes thiekly populated
by the opening Of this waterway, and
the contiguous territory becomes, as il
surely will, the garden region Of the
State. Gen. WescOtt, of this city, now
wellsdvanced IN years, is the sole Origi-
nat0r Of this truly gigantic scheme, hav-
ing made IL his life-work; and in common
WIN All tut Aulduoy anu tHptCldlly All
residents OF st. Augustine and the East
coast, we trust that in the ripeness of his
years, he may soon witness The frjiitiOn OF
all his iondest hopes. The following ex.
celent description Of the Indian river
country and tables Of distances on the
East coast, compiled from the Southern
Sun, are OF especial interest in this con-
nectiOn:
"There is a peculiar feature OF the river
shore at 50. Lucie. This is the singular
circumstance that in several places along
the western bank OF the stream, especially
near the residence Of James A. Russell,
and about opposite 10 Indian river inlet,
the projecting ledge OF vegetable matter,
a foot or more in thickness, appears In
places TO have turned into stone. But.
what Is more remarkable sui. IN this
peirihed mould are 10 be seen, imDedded
to one-balf their diameter or more, large
sea shells, mainly Of a single species
THIS is a curious sight, and apparently
gives evidence that here was once the
ocean beach.
Savannah morning news. [volume] (Savannah) 1868-1887, 1886-04-01

Add to this the $50 from st. Augustine
and the result is a total Of 56l miles, or
$40 from the northern boundary OF the
State.
Now, another comparison of figures as
TO the shortest distance 10 Key West from
Lake Worth. BY the inside route, as Just
given, it is $50 miles to kew West; by the
outside passage, through Lake Worth in
let, it is 240 miles, a difference of 80 in
favor OF the latter.
Without any desire to confuse the
reader we Will now duplicate some of the

Last week our counters
were literally besieged by the
fair sex upon the announce
ment of our Grand Bargains
in Sateens, Ginghams, Ba-
tistes and White Goods. The
ladies of Savannah know a
live bargain when they see
it, as those visiting purchased
heavily, and were carried
away with the tasty patterns
and very low prices.

Palmetto Palms.

From the 81. augustine tFla.) Weekly.
The cabbage or palmetto palm is an in
stitntion of the entire eastern border of
Florida not to be ignored. 1t thrives with
remarkable Vgor from st. Augustine,
especially TO the Florida Keys. The tallest
growth Of this species seen by the writer
on his trip down the coast was at City
Point. near Melbourne. some OF these
trees rise 10 the height OF 30 feet, without
a single branch. and have been known
to attain the height of 100 feet, totally
braL CHESS, with small head Of deep
evergreen foliage rising fully 20 feet
higher. They waste none OF their ener-
GEES on "side issues" but push up their
lea1ess stems boldly toward the sky and
tower above less successful rivals IN the
bright, warm sunlight Of the upper air."
where they mature those long, dropping,
feathery leaves that reveal, even 10 the
casual and distant observer, the noble
family TO which they belong.
The leaves are long, tender and suecu-
lent, while at the base OF those that are
entirely developed is wel-compacted,
light-eolored mead, like that OF a cabbage
hence its name. This is the trees heart;
1t is its nerve OF life. An injury sus-
tanned by this is fatal 20 It's existence;
shoot bu let through 10 and the tree dies.
The scientific name OF the cabbage palm
is Ore0 torn Oler 0ced. In the Bahama
Islands they are known as palmistes.
Here there Is one that, measured by its
shadow. IL 1853 feet In height; for more
than 100 feet the trunk rises straight,
smooth and gray. without a single pro-
lection. Then there are four spathes OF
lowers or 5 feet long, each jutting up
ward, while from below each one, as
usual, one dead leaf, 20 feet long or more,
bangles head downward in the breeze.
Above them rises the green foliage OF the
stem for some 90 feet, and then the nat
crown OF flowers spreads out against the
blue sky. looking very small so high up in
the air. but fully 40 feet in breadth.

FLoRIDA's INSIDE PASSAGE.
An Interesting Compilation of Facts
and Figures.

From the 50. Augwstjne tF1d.l Weekly.
The inside passage is one OF the most
curious features of Florida. 1t is a re-
markable provision of nature to enable
smaller sailing or steam craft to readily
navigate the entire east coast of the State,
without exposure to the dangers of the
ocean. But as the strange peculiarities
OF this great waterway have, heretofore,
been IN this series of articles, the present
design is TO show merely the distances
from one place to another along its total
extent.
This passage, then, first Of all, extends

southern head of the MatanZas river,
