In this way we can treat the lungs locally, as
we vaporize all medicines: and the patient in
hales the vapor, holding it for a Bhort time in the
lungs thus the msdicine held in suspension in

taken up by the blood. It not only produces the
local efiect desired, but .
A CONSTITUTIONAL EFFECT.
If you have any kind of Lung disease, come

We will not charge you anything

THE OXYGEN GAS,
breathed two or three times a day, will restore
you to perfect health, though you may think
yourself beyond the reach of remedies. There is
not the least danger connected with the treat
ment. The efiect is pleasant, and the result
permanent.
For Asthma, it is a specific as much as Quinine
is for chills. If you have Asthma, it will cure you,
and the relief Is almost instantaneous.

Col. N. G. Fhillips, of Robbinsville,
Graham county, reached the city yester
day, enroute for Yancey county. We
were pleased to have our friend call to
see us.
A number of people are visiting Jar
rett's, the present head of navigation on
the Murphy division of the W. N. C
Road, to see .the magnificent scenery on
the Nantahala. No trip to Western Car
olina is complete without taking in this
trip.
Mr. John Evans Brown returned
to tne city Monday, ne gives a
glowing account of Mitchell county,
Cranberry, &c, which places he vis
ited. .
.Wc are pleased to see Mr King
Curtis, of New York, brother of our
counlyman P. Randolph Curtis,
Esq , who is on a visit to our section
for the summer.
.Mr. J. G. Wright, a staff corre
spondent of the Cincinnati Timea-
Star, is spending some time in our
city, stopping with Mr. W. H.
Inloes on Chestnut street.
We are deeply r aindd to hear of
the serious illness of Col. Thad.
Coleman. He is at bis residence
near Weaverville. His condition is
considered very critical by hia7phy
sician. We sincerely trust our friend
may survive this attack.
Mr. L. R. Foard, of the Cincinna
ti Southern Railroad, is in the city.
This gentleman is giving close at
tention to the attractions and re
sources of Western North Carolina,
but whether his visit is "for a spe
cial purpose" we are unable to learn.
He is evidently looking to business,
however.
The same old republican firm,
which the sheriff has had to-close
up so often of late years, proposes to
open shop again in this city on the
21th inst, under a new name, how
ever. Like Artemua Ward's Kan
garoo "it is an amoosin little cuss.
but perfectly . harmless."
It only costs $2.50 to become a can

MADISON SUPERIOR .CORT;
"'Marshall. Ang-nd 1886.-
O wing to the derailment of a freight
train this morning between here and
Warm Springs, by which fortunately, no
one was hurt, the train bearing the Judge
and the Asheville bar did not reach here
until 1 o'clock. So the . court was ;fiiot
called until after dinner which meal was
served for us, the Judge,' Solicitor FergU'
son and other dignitaries at - Welles in
abundant profusion and appetizing stylo,
an acknowledgment I gladly make to
most attentive landlord, and, in propor
tion to its caDacitv. most excellent bouse,
I received the congratulations of many
friends for being out of lau, and many
most outspoken commendations for the
position taken by the Citizen in the late
conflict with the court, it is very pleas
ant to have it recognized by the people
that their cause is involved in the free
dom of the Dress.
Court was called about 2 o'clock, and
after the selection and qualification of
the orand jury, judge Avery .delivered
one of the clearest most "comprehensive
and most succinct charges I have ever
heard from the bench. I only refer to it
for it is needless to recapitulate its points.
but it was a model rn its terseness, yet in
its. intelligent fulness, goes far to re
deem the judiciary from the : charge of
flatulent platitude which-is both a nuis
ance and a waste of time. I hope there
is no "contempt" in tnis remark.
Tne State docket was disposed of in
half an hour. The Inferior Court had
disposed of all the misdemeanor cases,
and no higher offences had accrued since
tne last term or tne Jsupenorjjourt.
There are three old cases which head
the docket, which are always called in
due form, which will for a long time be
called, and which mav always remain
without respondents. The first is against
Aiuton s. xiuieneia lor conspiracy.
What a world of railroad history is sug:
gested. Fifteen or sixteen years ago he
was the magnate or tnis section, tne man
through whose magic touch-these moun
tains were to be pierced or laid low, .and
this region develop into'sudden and splen
did prosperity. We do not know what
Littlefield might have done if time had
been given him. Perhaps he did mean
to carry out the ideas with ; which he
dazzled the people of the West and of the
State. But it turned out that he and his
associates, were unexpectedly to them,
made to pose as conspirators rather than
benefactors, and they fled. Leatn or
compromise has left the name of Liitle
field alone on the docket as conspirator,
and that has only recently been reinstat
ed there by decision of the Supreme
Court, Judge Gudger having Ordered it
removed as coming within tne jurisdic
tion of the Inferior Court, from "which
order anneal was taken.
The rest or tne two weeks' term wiu be
taken up with the Civil Docket. '
Next to the court comes the considera
tion of politics, in which our friends of
tne other side take more active interest
than the- Democrats. These last , will
probably pursue the policy of masterly
inactivity, except in relation to the Sen-
to present the name of Col. Willie Gudg
er lor mat nonor. soma weexs ago nis
name was urged through the Citizen by
friends in Madison; and the suggestion is
generally approved, and with reason and
justice. ' .
The Kepubiicans are more active, be
cause they have more at stake, more to
gain and more to provide for. A town
ship meeting was held here on Saturday
to apnoint delegates to the county con
vention to be held here on the 17th of
August. Mr. Stephen Roberts presided,
and Mr. B. T. Chandley was secretary.
The meeting was a large one, and several
good speeches for that Bide were made.
The following delegates from Marshall
township were appointed :
G W Bryan, W O McDaris, Len Hen
derson, R P Wilde, W A Houston, R F
Ramsey, Jos Ball, a THiery, 11 Brown, A
Knnnion, A J Mcue v ut, c; ti uanaier,
A Nichols, W J Gentry, S A McKay,
M Honevcutt. T E Stines. J A3 Price. E
Eller, A J Davis.
The following names will be presented
to th6 convention: :
For Sheriff, M A Chudley and O H
English: for the House, J C PritchaTd
and Lawson: 1 ior itegisier oi ueeas,
B T Chudley and James Smart; and the
name of M A Ball appears in the same
connection. - And the present Clerk,
whose service is perfectly satisfactory
J White will have no opposition.
From what I learn the scale3 incline
in favor of Pritchard.
TOBACCO PROSPECTS.
This is a subject of very serious import
to Madison county, the largest tobacco
f reducing county west of the Ridge, and
have made many and minute inquiries
from planters from every section of the
county: Beginning with Capt. A. M.
Alexander with whom I had a long, con
versation this morning at Alexanders, I
learned that his estimate of the crop of
the county was half an average in . quan
tity, and an inferior one in quality. He
is a large planter and an accurate od-
server. Here at iiarsnau, wnne i saw
manv who could tell of exceptional good
crops, the drift of opinion coincided with
that of Capt Alexander. Early planted'
tobacco showed now- all that it was capa
ble of doing. -The leaf was narrow and
pointed, and the plant had all to be top
ped low. There is no more come out in
that planting, l he late crop with gooa
weather and a late fall, may do better. I
have Been no field, and hear of none,
where the plants cover and shade the
ground as they ought to do. at this sea
son. Every plant stands sullenly and
stiffly to itself without that leafy luxuri
ance so beautiful and so desirable.
So much for the tobacco, crop." Corn
on uplands is doing better, isince it has
been worked; and every farmer is satis
fied with his crops of wheat, oats, grass
ana clover. --
In connection with tobacco, it may be
