The credit of a city is always based
upon its promptness as well as integrity
in financial matters, its good government,
its prosperity. All of these elements
Asheville claims, and its claims are re
cognized. The city, by a large vote of its
ople, for good reasons, recently author
ized tne issue or one Hundred thousand
dollars of securities, said securities to be
sold for not less than pat. The author
ities advertised for sealed bidrfor these

sabmitted we wish ' not only 'to speak,
Dut to ooast; ana wnue we cannot give
the bids in derail now, we feel at liberty
to make a general statementand to speak
of its import. We are informed there
were several bids for the entire amount,
offering a fbehivh fob thohds; there
were a number of otherstior smaller
rants, from five to twenty thousand,
aggregating more in amount than is offer
ed, l bis, we claim, is a just recognition
of the claims of Asheville for promptness
and integrity in financial matters.' its
good and sound government, f end its
prosperity and growth and future. Of all
people on earth who are scary, cap
italist are the most so; and these oners of
capitalists sustain all we sav. It is a
"matter of which our people may be justly
proud; they only desire such a character,
knowing themselves to deserve it, and,
are therefore pleased to know that other

' How many bugs in a house" suffice to
make it "unfit for human - habitation ?"
This was the question which Mr; Justice
Mathew was called on to answer on Sat
urday. It was proved that "the famish
ed house in a fashionable West End
quarter" contained several dozen of the
brutes: ; bnt this number the learned
Judge decided was "not. enough to oust
the. .tenant,': who accordingly had to pay
the rent. How many, then, are "enough,
to oust a tenant?" As !a . matter of fact
they had. been ample enough to oust this
particular tenanant, who bad left the
house at the first attack. But law is not
made for particular cases.: Itfwould have
been satisfactory, however, if Mr, Justice
Mathew had laid down at what point a
tenant may capitulate to the enemy
without forfeiting bis right to legal con
sideration, v " :-

it will be seen by reference to tne
table that' there are 70,000 'hhda
now on hand in the markets of the

the present inferior crop might find
it profitable to ask what it will be
worth if a good crop is made this
