Sub sequently a larger pipe will be laid ! communicating with a capacious resorvoir which will ampl' supply j the hotel and grounds. The Bio Sales at Big Creek. . Monday, Tuesday' and .Wednes day, so Mr. W ill Israel informs us, were notable day at the Alpha Warehouse, Big Creek, Tenn. Over 75,000 pounds of tobacco were sold, all' at good prices. The following sales were made for Messrs. Bell and Bailey of Cocke county 7 lots 92 lbs. at $12, 236 at 26, 125 at 36, 132 at 28, 93 at 37, 223 at 35, 224- at 13, an average of $27 07. Harrison Mor rows crop ot l,olo pounds at an av erage of $21.' J. H.; Messer,TT,460 pounds at an average of $23. " Buy ers were present from all the leading markets, and all the prices were satisfactory to the farmers. The tobacco industry of Greene, Cocke, Sevier and Hamblin counties is very rapidlv enlarging, which add and profitable crops makes their section a most inviting field. 'We again call the attention of our Asheville trade to it. EXCOUR AOEMKXT TO Matufactu- BERS. The Board of Aldermen of. Ashe ille have entered upon a wise and ; liberal course in relation to manu facturers. They see, as all must see, hat the sound prosperity of Ashevile is dependent upon something more solid than reputation for healthfull ness and beauty of scenery. These are possessions tor which ther j towns ' in Western "North Carolina may be made successfully to com pete. The real foundation of the prosperity of Ashevile must be based upon manufactures; and ' in ; these she can be made to defy all compe tition and local rivalry, because she is already to a considerable extent a railroad centre with enlarged f a cilities in the no distant future. The new means of transportation added to. what are already poss essed will give her the comma nd as a manufacturing point To these facilities are added that abundance of raw material tobac co, which is becoming the great sta ple of the West, cotton, which will soon be reached by a transportation of less than "Omiles from the farms, woods of all description, and for ail purposes, to pe found in the forests around, iron and coal of . quick and economical access, all of which pro vide material for as great a variety of industries as may engage capital The Board, some weeks since, took the initiative in theif wise' purpose by liberating the tobacco, factories from the corporation tax. On Fri day evening, an application looking to the same exemption, was made by parties'- from a neighbor tbwr!. Messrs, Avery and Envin, of Mor- ganton, propose to erec a furniture factory here, investing a capital off from $30,000 . to $40,000. The ap plication was received favorably, and a committee was appointed to drofVxm ordinance to cover , all sfcch cases, and to rjive an exemption of five years from corpoiation taxes. This throws the doors wide open to both those in and out of the State, and will no doubt give motibn to the long retarded movement. , We hope our suggestion may not be considered intrusive, when we re fer to ihe fine buildings of Mr. Rich mond Pearson, now lving idle and vacant near the old : depot. -Free occupation of the largest of them for a period of years, would fill all the others, and create there a focus of industry which would make all the property productive, and odd great ly to the industrial life of the whol e town. ; - " ' To Tiis Pubtic Generally. .

NORTH CAROLINA AT THE LONDON " " EXPOSITION: ! - "'; AN IMPORTANT LETTER FROM OUR - STATE COMMISSIONER. Asuevili.e, N. C.,.20th Nov., 188-". To Editors of the. Citizen.- 'f - ; - 1 v Gentlemen : Having been appointed by H is Excellency Gov. Scales to represent the State of North Carolina in the exhibi tion in London. England, in May 1S80, 1 wish to make the best showing possible of the resources of this, highly favored State, so as not only to sell tracts of land, but to bring in capital to develope the various branches of intlostry now laying dormant . In order to accomplish this, I will require the . co-operation, of the inhabitants throtighout the length and breadth of the Stale, and would request them to rend me specimens of minerals, timber , cereals, tobacco, fruit, vegetables, S?!vl!?.-lXtk.P stcne, mineral waters irom tne different Ther mal Springs; alsd Ornithological and En tomological specimens; in a word every thing to attract the attention of people seeking investments in lands, and the general industries which this State so largely offers. As it is my intention to repi esent properties seeking capital for their development, and to attract for that purpose both capital, and skilled labor, in order to do this it would be necessary to exhibit representative specimens from di nerent actual merited properties thronghont the various counties of this State, which would bear inspection, and investigation, and-fully realize the re presentations made by ma. it is iurther my intention to make a specialty to divert the tide of emigration to "this favored State by making known the numerous advantages it has to offer in comparison with many other States and Territories in climate, resources, &c; also to open up direct communication for the sale of tobacco in toe European markets, and thereby prevent other States from deriving credit, and profits from our crops. Having been in correspondence for years with numerous capitalists throughout Europe in my position as Mineralogist and Geologist for the North ern Pacific Railroad Company whose principle stockholders are English and German), I have also connection with the Iron manufacturers and other indus tries, to all of whom I intend to make known the numerous advantages to be obtained bv investing in this country. This I can do outside of my official cap acity, not only in London, but in the principle capitals of Europe. In my official capacity as commissioner I will be brought in contact with representa tive men from all parts of the world, thereby affording me dual advantages to promote the interest of the State at large. In order to accomplish the ends aimed at, it will be necessary to have tiie hearty co-operation of the entire population of the btate, headed by toe l3oard of Com missioners of each county, who ought in their public capacity to make an appro priation suitable lor deirayinz .expenses this State, but the entire nation will feel proud of; this would be necessary, as the State has not set aside any appropriation for defray irfg expenses , All newspapers in th is State . in favor of the above project will please cop'v this article, and call attention to it by editorial, and oblige, J. M Tiernax, Commissioner to London Exhibition 1886' V. S. As I have to make application for necessary space in the Exhibition Buildioer, it would be requisite that par ties desiring exhibits should communic ate -with me at AsheeiLle as soon as possible. All articles for exhibition should be with me by or before loth February 1886, as I will have to classify, catalogue, label and pack them, so as to have them in New York bv 1st March 1885. .., : . . - - .v THE MARKETS Produce and Provi " n. ., New York, Nov. 21.
