also numerous smaller hotels and innumerable boarding-houses,
where board may be had with fair accommodations for five to fifteen
dollars per week.
 The tourist should first make a journey down to the mouth of
the St. John's, on the regular daily steamer, leaving at about nine
o'clock A. M., returning about six P. M. It is a delightful and inter-
esting day-excursion. Fare, $1.00.

 UP THE ST. JOHN'S.
 Daily boats, via the De Bary Line; or via the Pioneer Line Mon-
days and Thursdays; or via the Independent Line Tuesdays and Fri-
days. Each line steamers leave their wharf at half past one p. M.,
reaching Palatka early the same evening, and Enterprise and Sanford
about noon next day, where excellent hotels are found. Returning,
leave Sanford at nine o'clock each morning. Fare, $7.00; round trip,
$10.00.
 THE FAB-UP ST. JOHN'S AND INDIAN RIVERS.
 There are several steamers that make the entire round trip from
 Jacksonville to the extreme upper waters of the St. John's. These
 are small, crowded-up sort of boats, but fairly comfortable with-
 al, and decidedly novel. They are very convenient to the tourist,
 especially hunters, and parties with ladies. Their dates are quite
 irregular, and must be learned in Jacksonville. The fare is about
 ten dollars, but special terms are easily made, according to numbers
 and circumstances. Another way is to go to Sanford, then take
 passage on the Pioneer Line boats that leave there tri-weekly. The
 time from Jacksonville to Titusville and Rock Ledge is about
 seventy-two hours, although this time will undoubtedly be reduced
 to about fifty hours, even forty, by the new arrangements now being
 perfected. Rock Ledge can be reached by leaving the St. John's
 boat at Salt Lake, thence to Titusville by mule-team (as heretofore
 described), then via sail-boat; or, continuing on the St. John's boat
 to Lake Winder, thence by mule-team eight miles over to the Indian
 River. Boats may be chartered at Titusville for a journey down
 the Indian River and on to Lake Worth and Key Biscayne Bay.

 TO CBE8CENT LAKE.
 Take steamer at Palatka, that makes the round trip daily to
 Crescent Lake. A short, pleasant trip and low fare.
