Two Spectres--


Two of the Spectres, which like Ban
quo's Ghosts will never down, are
again rearing their heads as the time
of the converting of the Florida Iegis-
ture draws near. These are the re
apportionment of the state" and the
annexation Of the western part of
Florida to Alabama" The former of
these propositions may have some
merit, and may come up for action at
this or some latter session of the leg
islature, but as for the latter, the an
nexation of west Florida to Alabama
that can be considered only in the light
of a joke by any west Florida citizen
The western section of Florida is just
as much Florida as the peninsula sec
ton and always will be. If Alabama
thinks she just can't get along without
some of our splendid harbors, and de-
lightful climate, and Incompatible rep
utation as the most pleasing section
Of the United States we might be will
ing to take the state. over as an addi-
ton to Florida, but it would be Flor
ida and not Alabama, when done

Floridians:
OLD FLORIDA is GOOD ENOUGH.
We haint agoin to change our. name,

We raise every thing we want
With a climate that is fit.

Old Florida is god enough
We will always keep you so,

We got the harbors and the coast
From one end to the other,
And jest as good land in all
AS our Alabam rother.
We have a climate in the south
That Jack Frost will not enter,
Where all fruits of the Tropics grows.
In full perfected splendor.
The middle part, where balls of gold,
Hangs on the trees all winter,
To get all markets, strive their best
Which shows that they are sprint
ers.
The northern part, from east to west
We raise the hog and hominy.
With all the forage that is known
Which brings in wealth and money.
SO Alabama, we wont moove,
There is no use of your talking
Weel stay old Florida always.
There is no use of you working.
