We have had a "spell of weather I"
here, as well as elsewhere. It was Bit

coats, woollens, and kindred articles
The grand clearing up has been Of great
benefit, and the general opinion is that
large trees are not injured. Perhaps
most Of them will drop leaves. nust
confess to little disappointment at so
sudden a break, as 1 had ordered a pair
OF bOb-sleds from the north, and was ex-
pecting to go to logging in Broad's cy-
press swamp, and daily looking for a
pair Of skates, that 1 might amuse the
youth hereabouts, by showing my dex-
terity on the ice; showing how to do the
fancy spread eagle, and other numerous
curlycues, as well as my old rheumatic
limbs would permit. I began to feel
about 16, but now q thaw has arrived,

ping to think OF what q nice bit Of
weather they would have had to endure
were they home. This weather should
discourage no one. The one who sticks,
will come out successfully in the end.
1t may discourage some who had very
young groves, and not overmuch faith,
but the one who stays will win. see
no occasion to feel blue.

Brown, son, and two friends from New
ark, N. j; Judge Weeks and wife, Mr..
Stillman and wife, Illinois. Some Of
these parties have been here before now,
and know where to come to have q
pleasant time.
Some changes have taken place with
this New Year. r. J. Broad takes
charge q his wharf again. Msssrs.
Gilchrist & Reynolds have moved into
their new and ..commodious store. They
now have one Of the best wharfs on the
river, with convenient warehouse, and
their goods can 60 on cars from ware
house to rear Of, and under the store;
thence by elevator to the first and second
stories, thus saving all horse work.
The two stores, those OF j. s..
North and @. & R., each keep a full
stock Of everything wanted, and people
need not go to Palatka or jacksonville
for trade. Live men are at the head Of
these stores, and customers can be as
sured Of satisfaction.
There are all sorts Of rumors afioat,
that we will soon get our mails by car
rier from some near point on the r. r.
We hope the river boats may continue
and think they will, but time will solve
these matters.

My Little Wife.

Henry Austin.
She isn't very pretty
$50 say Der lady friends);
She's neither wise nor witty
With verbal odds and ends.
No fleeting freaks Of fashion
Across her fancy run;
She's never in . passion
Except . tender one.
Her voice il low and cooling;
She listens more than speaks;
While others talk Of doing,
The duty near she seeks.
It may be but to burnish
The sideboard's scanty plate.
Or but with bread to furnish
The beggar at the gate.
So I, who see what graces
She sheds on lovely life,
To fashions fairest faces
Prefer my little wife.
And, though at her with pity
The city danes may smile,
Who deems her hardly pretty
And sadly out of style,
To me she seems q creature
So musically sweet,
would not change a feature
One curve from crown to feet.
And II could be never
Her lover and her mate,
think I'd be forever
The begger at the gate.

BRAVE JOHN BEDELL.
An Intensely Interesting Narrative Of the
Days of the Revolution.
WRITTEN BYE w. THOMPSON.

The Adventures of an Old United Empire
LoyaIist in the Time OF Blood and
Courage. copyrighted by ). s. Mcclure
The United Empire Loyalists were
American Tories who forsook their
homes and property after the Revolution
to live under the British flag. Repre-
hensible though Americans may con-
slder the political OK inions of those men
to have been, it is impossible to with
hold admiration from their devotion to
their ruling idea. This story is obvi-
ously intended, not only to picture a
heroic deed, but to indicate in some de-
gree the quality of the L. f. Loyalist
type John B.dell was a Loyalist, but
none the less brave American.-ED
