Of the one hundred colonists from Scotland who were induced by glowing promises of fertile lands and bi;r fortunes in the southwestern section of Florida to emigrate to that place last November not one is contented in his new home. The place selected for the wanning 01 tne colony is Sara bota, the land at which has been found to consist of white sand, and is not in r any respect up to what it wa3 warranted to be by the circulars ami prospectuses furnished the immigrants. One of the colonists on his way back to Scotland stopped over in Savannah a day or two and told a doleful story of his experience and that of the other members of the party. He ascribes (he mistake of his associates to a too ready acceptance of roseate colored descriptions contained in the circulars scut out by the promoters of the -chemc. He blames the agent for not iiving- the colonists a correct idea of what they had to expect, and thinks hat the wise thing for colonists to do before leaving comfortable homes for i new country is to send ari agent of heir own chosing to select a location md arrange for accommodation. Most of the colonists have determined to return tu their own connfcrv. Atlanta Mouths Open. Six months ago we had no demand for 3. B.

Cruelty to Animals. ^ Some people object entirely to experiv ments upon animals. They do this chiefly on two grounds. The lirst is that.such .experim nts are useless, and ? the second that, even if they were use- i r ! ful, we Jiave no right to inflict pain upon e animals. The first objection is-due to ignorance. Almost all our exact knowlb edge of the action of drugs on the vars ious organs of the body, as well as the >t physiological fun< t:ons of these organisms themselves, has been obtained by i i, experiments on animals. Their second v objection is one which, if pushed to its . utmost limits and steadily carried out, would soon drive n?un oft the face of the ^ earth. The struggle for existence is constantly going on, not only between man and man, but between man, the lower animais, and plants, and man's very being depends upon hi^- success. ^ ku' fpod.

Wc oblige them to work ' for u? for no reward but their food, and ! we urge them on by whip a.r.d spur t wheu they are unwilling or flag. No one would think of blaming the messenger who should apply whip and spur to ' bring a reprieve, and thus save the life ; of a numan being about to die on the scaffold, even although his horse shonM die under him at the end of the jourr y, Humane people will give an extra sh ! ling to a cabman in order that they may catch the train which will take them to soothe, the dying moments of a j friend, without regarding the consequences to the cab-horse. Yet if one; tenth of the suffering which the horse has to endure in either of the case just mentioned were to be inflicted by a physiologist in order to obtain the knowledge which would help to relieve the suffering and lengthen the life, not of one human being only but of thousands, : many | arsons would exclaim against him. Such objections as these are due either to want of knowledge or want of tho'ught on the part of people who make them. They either do not know the benefits which medicine derives from experiment, or they thoughtlessly, (sometimes, perhaps, willfully.) ignore the evidence regarding the utility of experiment. ?Brunton s Pharmacology. . m + mm Th French government would like to give the army the privilege of wearing beards, but feels ill" necessity of first consulting.? veral high military authorities. as the opinions on the subject are contradictory.

We had a case of scrofula in our neighborhood, of long standing, who had used all patent medicines which were recommended to him; besides this, he also had several doctors attending him, but everything failed to effect any good, lie grew worse every day, and had not ieft his bed for the las* six" months. We had seen him sevsul times in our little town, though it has^een more than.vi"tnst saw u p p ose this was the last time he was able to come to town, as he lives about eight miles in the country. His name is Servenka, and we got a neighbor of his to persuade him to try U. B. 13", and after using only one bottle he left his bed for the lir.-t time in six months. To the present time he lias used less than three bottles, and he Ts walking around visiting his friends in the neighborhood. He has gained strength and flesh rapidly. All scrofulous sores are healing finely, and you never saw a happier man than lie is. Nearly everybody for miles around has heard of this wonderful cure, and ail who need a blood remedy call for the B. B. B. We had a case of nasal catarrh in our own family (a little girl of four years old), who has been using B. B. B. 1'or'about two weeks, and already seems to be about well. We have onlv three bottles left," and want you to ship us six dozen bottles. We take pleasure in recommending B. B. B. as a medicine worthy of the entire confidence of the public. Its action is more rapid than any biood remedy we ever bandied. LIEDTKE'BROS. TUTT'S Bwmo' UV* m MA BO! 31AF 'xo itflwa an V9?> Hie Greatest Keclieal Trimapli of tie Ago! SYMPTOMS OF A TORPID LIVER.
