Yesterday came in a pleasant cool Oct- oBgywy-)itl. a fair-aky-rluad a, brisk northwest wind. It was a grateful varia tion from the warm weather of the pre' vious fortnight. . . The Carolina Central Railroad is now completed 18 miles west of Shelby. In a weeks it will be finished to Rutherford' ton. The Carolina Central company is a pushing concern, and will do what it promises. The foundations for the tall elect trie towers are now all laid. There are five of them, each 125 feet high. One is in the Court Home qnare; the others In suitable ' spots in the four different quarters of the ; town. The wires are all extended. - ' Mr. J. L. Cathey, democratic can didate for Clerk , of the Superior court, gave us a pleasant call yester day. He was in very excellent spir its oyer his prospects. His old comrades-in-arms are rallying to him with cratifviner unanimity, and are working for him. He says he will be elected by a good maienty. We learn that a protracted meet ing is going on in Limestone town ship in this county,' which is largely and enthusiastically attended. It was begun as a Baptist meeting, but has drawn into it other denomina tions, until now there is a united and warm interest. Ibese meetings are taking place, we' learn, in seveiS al par Is of the county. It was rumored yesterday that Mr. Pox, republican nominee for the Senate, had been persuaded - to withdraw, and permit Mr. Pearson s friend Mr. Lusk to enter - the T race. We could not trace the ' rumor; to a reliable source, however. That the effort is being made to prize . Mr, f ox on the track is said to be a cer tainty. Will he stick, is the " ques tion. The Advance says"the democrats of this county will vote for Mr. Pearson and Mr, Reynolds' The democrats, as a body, -will vote for the democratic ticket. If these democrats who will vote for Messrs. Pearson and Reynolds, do not vote for the republicans on the ticket, how can these ' gentleman ask re publicans to vote for them ? ; The Advance will assure the defeat of its friends if it continues as. it is going, and we urge it to continue its good work.

Mr'Gammon,Cthe greatly loved pastor of the Presby terian Church of this city, will Boon sever his connection therewith,-and accept the call recently in ado by the church in Charlottesville Va. Mr. Gammon, with his family, will leave, we hear, in about ten days. All of them will leave behind them as sincere friendships as they can ever enjoy any where : ; and carry with them the heartfelt" prayers of their late congregation and church associates, and of very many of the community, for continued health, and proeperity, and God's blessings upon them. Mr. W. H. Hargrovo , left yester day for Augusta, Ga., where he will take up his winter quarters, as he has done for several previous past winters for the receipt and sale of North Carolina apples. "These are shipped to him from Haywood and other western counties by the car load.' Mr. H. adviees orchardists de signing to ship to distant markets, or in fact where good keeping fruit is desired, to gather from the tree when apples are ripe, never wait for them to fall, to be gathered from the ground.

It is Baid ne has patented a metallic harness, which is not halt as costly as leather and much more durable. James Miller, of .Raleigh, -who was sentenced to pay a fine of $2,000, has by order of Judge Gud ger, been allowed to 5 assign all his property for the benefit of his cred itors and take the insolvent oath. On doing this before Chas. D. Up church, Clerk of Wake County Su perior Court, Miller was discharged. ine btate appealed, and Miller gave Bond in the sum of $500 for hia ap -pearance.

On appeal, the Supreme Court decided that his devotion was sincere, that he was an honest worshipper and should not be de barred by phy sical defect from 'express-. ion of his emotions; and so Mr. Linkhaw went on to sing at bis will.without regard to the sensitive organs , of his fellow-worshi-oera.? Jn. the Jackson case, it appeared. hat John Barleycorn and not religious "fervor was the inspiration of the discord that grated on the ears of the congregation, and the jnry so determined. Last Spring one Allen Sutton, on hi way home from Webster with two com panions, John Messer and John McMa ban. at a point about two. miles from town was killed by Messer. ' Messer was arrested, and has been in fail ever since. The Solicitor drew a bill against him for manslaughter, and it was supposed, he would be tried on that count. But earlv in the week new developments counsell ed a change of . purpose, and when we left it was the purpose of the Solicitor to draw bills for murder against both Mes ser and McMahan, the former as prin cipal, the latter as accessory. We believe Messrs. W. W. Jones and KopeElias appear for the defendants. . - -: : Webster during the discussion of the court house question is at a -stand still, and no improvement in building is going on. : But industry of other kind, is active, especially in mining operations. Mr. Schreiber has developed the Kaolin vein to an extent that shows: exhaustless abundance of the material as well as superior excellence in quality., A tunnel has penetrated through a solid bed of the Kaolin deposit. A test was made at northern pottery works of the character of the material, and it proves to be of the very best. - Capital has been secured for the establishment of a manufactory which will probably be located at Ashe ville. . , The nickel mines are showing value under development. The ore is genthite and is rica and abundant.. .Near by, and under th same, ownershipfiaa fine body of chromic iron ore. So work has been done to convert tne- ore into - economic uses, but time will bring that about. The mineral interest about Webster is so great and so valuable that it is within the range of near probability that a rail road connection will be made with the Western North Carolina at .Webster de pot, or at Sylva. . Both of these places are growing. At the former there are now three stores open and several dwellings. At the other there are two stores, several new dwell ings, and a steam miL for the sawing of walnut lumDer. ine mm Has been at work about six weeks; and the huge piles of lumber already accumulated proves the activity of the owners. : ; Large numbers of cattle are shipped almost .daily from these stations, one day as many as seven cars, from one of them, we saw at bylva large quanti ties of ducks and chickens on their way to Charlotte, and a large lot of leather from Hall's tannery bound to Enoxville. The lumber, cattle and mineral business and the little incidentals are all the sour ces through which ready xnonev flows into the county; and the stream is not a flush one by any mpans. . The crops of the county have been good, and the corn crop i3 abundant. Tobacco we have already spoken of. It is generally represented as a good ono During our stay at Webster we were under many obligations for the attention and kindness of our host Mr. J, H. Lock rey. A good and bountiful table comfort ed us durine the day, and an excellent room and bed brought us rest and refresh ment at night. The house was full of guests, pleased and satisfied like our self. Judge Avery, Mr. W. W. Jones and-one or two others fonnd comfortable quarters with Mr. J. W Terrell, Solicitor Ferguson and others were taken care of by Mr- R. H. McKee, while our friend Luck in his beautifully situated house at the head of the street made others hannv with good table, good quarters, and the most complete command or the magnifi cent scenery around. ". .There is much to interest in1 Jackson county. It is a true mountain county with the Blue Ridge on its South end J the uaisam on the feast bordera and the Cowee mountains on the West; both sending out their spurs to interlock With each other, presenting an apparently confused maze of mountains, but separa ted symmetrically : by abundant- and beautiful valleys, making the perfection of landscape, while retaining all that is necessary for the uses of man. The soil is exceedingly rich, as is proved by the size and variety of the timber growth; and the fertility as a . rule extending to the very highest mountain tops, the most exuberant growth of vegetable matter we have found being on the -very tops of the, Cowee mountains. at an elevation of 4500 feet. The future of the county is a great one.

Twelve States beside the District of Columbia were represented 1 in the securities sold, and it is a cheering fact tha$ the, "Old North, -State" stood at the head . of the list, so . far as values were concerned.

He was playing with' .a loaded revolver and handed it to Lee Harmon, a youth who had nev er fired a pistol. Harmon began to raise the hammer to see if it would revplte,' Jbut? "his. s thumb slipped when th6 hammer was only half back, and it flew back to its place and caused the pistol to explode. Wheeler shouted "Oh ! Lord I"., and Jiaced back and forth in the room or a few minutes and then fell on a sofiu- There was"H rush of people into thd room and Wheeler was helped up but he could not stand and was laid back on thi bed. He only lived about 25 minutes'. Har mon was arrested and tried before Esquires B; Greer and G. W.'Mc Guire, but all the proof went to show that the sad homicide was altogether the. result of accident; whereupon the prisoner- was re leased. - r The Raleigh correspondent of the Richmond Dispatch says : "5 ;'.

" Last year 2,034 were approved and" paid. ;Thirty six pensioners' have since ,died or been dropped "from the rolls , for fraud or errors;' so that to day there are 2,050 pensioners.

' Mr. W. A Gash returned yesterday from Jackson. He informs ns that the Messer case is continued until the next term of the court on account of the change in the form of the bill of indict ment, in which' Messer and McMahan are charged with murder, instead of. the former indicted singly for manslaughter. Hon. Geo. T. Bryan and daughter, of Charleston, registered at the Swannonoa Hotel yesterday. " They propose to remain here several weeks, fudge B. recently resigned his seat on the Federal Court bench, on which he sat as District Judge of South Carolina with honor to himself and to the welfare of the people pf his State. . : . It was rumored that Mr. Blue, who left this city recently with Mr. W.; G. Corpening to Birmingham, Ala., to work on a Birmingham rail road, was killed a day or so ago by premature blast. We could learn nothing definite, and hope it is not true. - It seems there is a purpose on the part of Mr.. Pearson and his immediate friends to knife Dr.Baird on aD'available occasions. Dr. Baird was nominated, regularly, by one of the largest conven tions held this year. Mr. Pearson was not . nominated by any, so his friends' claim, (eitherthe republicans were afraid to claim him altogether, or Mr. Pearson's friends are ashamed to acknowledge him a republican nominee); yet, Mr. Pearson undertakes to un Dr. B. off the track, and assume to be the dog of the party bone-yard himself I His yard, will be a political grave yard in November. At Charlotte there is a colored man's Republican paper called the Messenger. Here is a nice little nut for Charles R. and his brother Kickers. It says: "Let Independents who are dis pleased with their own party, sup port our men who come out in favor of the things these Independents ask for. Don't put the Independent himself but put our men up to rep resent him and us and we will sup port him. That will be right." That editor, says the Wilmington Star, seems to know the size of the Kickers. - Yes, let the Kickers sub side and vote for the "fire tried." An Eud to Bone Scraping. ' Edward Shepherd, of Harrisburj', 111., siys r "Having received so much Dene fit from Electric Bitters, I feel it my du ty to let suffering humanity know it. Have had a running sore on my leg for eight years; my doctors told me I would have to have the bone scraped or leg amputated. I used, instead, three bot tles of Electric Bitters and seven boxes Bucklen's Arnica Salve,, and my , leg is now sound and well." Electric Bitters are sold at fifty cents a bottle, and Bucklen's Arnica Salve at 25cts per box by H. H. Lyon's. Lots of handsome goods for autumn and winter just opened.' The most desirable styles and colorings-promise to be scarce and it will be hard to find a few articles later. ; . H. REV n'UUV Se CO., tf' ---v ' 1 " - . One Price System.
