The new rates gu live stock and dressed
beef, which 1t was claimed would de-
stroy the dressed beef business, seem
rather 10 be deadly to the live stock busi-
ness, II we may trust the insufficient data
afforded by the New YORK. receipts in
March. The live stock receipts in that
month were 204 per cant. less this year
than last, while the dressed beef receipts
were 20 per cent. more. The dressed
beef receipts IN Msrch last were almost
exactly the same MS the average monthly
r, ceipts Ia 1885, and G2 per cent. more
than the average monthly receiptsin 1884
But New York city receives so little
dressed beef that II Is not safe to infer
that the business elsewhere has Jared ne
II has there. In 1885 II received nearly
twelve tons of live stock for every ton Of
dressed beef In March, however, IL tool
only eight and one-sixth tons Of live stocl
to one Of dressed beef; iu February, Mint

A gentleman well posted and in every
way competent, day or two ago, went
out and measured the stream for ~ and
found that the stream in this rainy sea
son flowed only about three hundred
gallons per minute, and he was fully sat
istied that it would fall off about 30 per
cent in u prolonged drought. Even with
full flow, the three hundred gallons,
with all the waste, would not be near
enough water T. supply tie private fam
lilies Of the city, to say nothing Of the
water needed for flooding sewers when
We get 'em) or for fire purposes.
Besides the lack Of supply there is a
strong belief in the mind. of many OF
our citizens that the water in this branch
is not pure and healthy, and some of our
oldest citizens are positive that it will
produce sickness of various forms,
SO It seems that Palatk;, will have &c
