The sleighing was line yesterday, and numbers were out enjoying it The track is now well beaten down. The tobacco market is at a stand still. There is a fair stock on hand, brought in before the snow, but the weather is too cool and .dry lor handling. Our new Sheriff Worley has leased for four years the house and premises belonging to Mrs. J. L. Henry, near the iron bridge and known as Silver Springs. He will move in soon with bis family. We learn that an engine was sent out on the Asheville and Spartanburg road on Wednesday on a voyage of discovery to nnd Uendereonvme. it returned without having made a port. The road is still blocked. Mr. Kissimmer Smith, of Florida, who purchased the residence and land adjoin ing belonging to Capt. Natt Atkinson, is here looking after his possessions. He has large interests in Florida, and will not remove here with his family until next summer. Efforts are being made to clear the Murphy division. . An engine with snow plough attached, and a considerable force is at work trying to force a way. But progress is slow. The same is the case on the Asheville an J Spartanburg road, thougb it is expected to be open to-aay. Buyers are on the qui vice for Christmas purchasers. Let adver tisers be cn the look out also. They know the value of the Citizen as a medium for making their prepara tions known. Ihe snow is now about two leet deep, having become compacted. The thaw ii very gradual. The lVWUO lAU VI VIA ttt3 VA- J OblVkOj UAV gradually wearing into good passa-r Ble tracks. The wood wagons from the country arc resuminsr their daily routes. We had the pleasure of a visit yesterday afternoon from Mr. R. H. Brown a member ot the Jsjet House of Representatives - frt omlJackson county. He has just retfc-Jed from Richmond where he disposed ot a car load of cattle to good advantage. He is here snow bound. Cold in the mountains is not like cold in the low country. The atmos phere is so dry that a low tempera ture is scarcely felt as uncomfort able, always provided the wind does not blow. With the mercury at 10 above zero, and a still air, no ore thinks .of the cold; men walk the streets or stand on the square with out their overcoats,' and ladies go about with the ireedom they would use on a May dav. last winter, when for several days seven the mercury fell below zero, after the first day, when the wind blew fero ciously, no one complained of the cold and only looked M the mercu ry with curious interest. Our suf ferings cannot excite commiseration unless the wind blows, jtnd then we are to be pitied. Ayer's Sarsaparilla works directly and promptly, to purify and enrich thn blood improve the appetite, strengthen the nerves,' and brace np the eystem. It is in the truest sense an alterative medicine. Every invalid should give it a trial. t2 Cbristmas Opening At Law's on South Main st .Thursday, Friday and Saturday, Dec. 2nd, 3rd and 4th.

Pyrotechnic Disflav i , Mr. Sooth wick of the Battery Dark Ho tel delighted Lis guests and such towns people as were attracted by. the spectacle to m brilliant display of fireworks on Wednesday nignt. ine only drawback was the bright moonlight, but that only partially dimmed the splendor, of the rockets, the Roman candles.) double headers, serpents, &o, and the effect of tne brilliant nasbes on the snow covered ground was something -: marvellously Beautiful. Unfortunately-Ve can only speak from hearsay, and cannot write of the occasion descriptively. j , c . aw ' ' jf 1 ' .- '- Snowheaps. : ; : " In clearing the side walks immense piles of snow have been gathered along the whole line of Main street and a part of Patton Avenue. These 'piles are six to eight feet high and eight to ten wide; and meeting from each side of the street narrow the carriage way to a very cramp ed compass. If the snow is to remain on the ground unchanged, indefinitely,' as the court seemed - lO'. think, when- it sojourned at7wtf:atnost serious perman ent inconvenience will arise. Novelty of tne situation might jnstily lor a few days the tolerance of these snowy masses. But they cannot be allowed to stay forever. Therefore we suggest their" removal. Labor can be had to do so; and in the want of employment, there are many who will suffer for the necessaries of life. Public uses will be servedrwhile employ ment necessary to provide daily food will be given. Value of Fieb Exten-guisiiebs. On the alarm of fire on Wednesday Mr. Southwick of the Battery Park Ho tel, Mr. Randolph Curtis and Mr. Churchill leaped into a carriage standing at the door of the hotel, and posted to the scene. Mr. Southwick thoughtfully took with him three of J. E. Long's fire extinguishers, with which the hotel is abundantly provided. He had never tested them, but had full faith in them. Arriving at the house he pushed his way into the room which was most in flame. The application of three of these exting- uisners instantly subdued tne name wherever they were applied. The parties were driven out by the smoke and the fire company perfected the work of ex tinguishment. The value of the Long's extinguisher being proved, not only sug gests the . wisdom of each householder supplying himself with them, but also tne good policy ol creating an exting uisher -brigade. Many fires can ba con trolled in their early stages without the application of water, which coming in such volume is as damaging to good3and furniture as fire. We attach the highest possible value and importance to the fite company and the water works, and have no idea of abating the confidence so im plicitly imposed on them. But thore would be no possible conflict between them, and the one would be effective only In incipient stages of a tire; still it may be made an important adjunct of the other; and we hDpe the idea will receive consideration. Builoing Inspectors. Our intense interest in :thia sub ject has led us to urgent with a per tinacity that mightTmpugn ;tKff'Rftf; delity to their trusts of those who alone could take action intheprems ises. We have never had, until yesterday, the lightest intimation that former suggestions had been heeded. Meanwhile our position had earnest endorsement, and we were urged to Dress the suiect until a hearing was had. The experiences of this week justified our article of yesterday. Now, we are glad to be informed by one of the Board that that body has been for sr me time engaged in formulating a system of ordinances applicable to the case, and so soon as they are matured they will be promulgated. And then we pope to see them strictly entorced. The Raleigh Carrespondent of the Richmond Despatch says: Mr. Peter M. Wilson yesterday retired from the office of secretary to the State Board of Agriculture. He has filled the position since 1880 with ability., and much matter concerning the State's resources,'&c, has been the product of his ready pen. His snc cessor is Mr. Thomas K. Bruner, of Salisbury. - Tha latter has for some time been the mining editor of the Salisbury Watchman. He is not regularly chosen secretary until the January meetng of the Board ot Agriculture.. Commissioner ot .Immigration Patrick says that he has discovered at Edenton the most attractive loca tion for a sanitarium he. has ever seeh. It fronts upon the splendid Edenton bay, and lies about twenty feet above the water, with oaks of large size., standing here and there. The discovery is important, in view of the fact that special efforts are to be made to establish a sanitarium in that section of the Sta'e, as well as at Asheville and Southern Pines.

KKUWUUU l'U, $rpt28-deod , : OUR CORRESPONDENT JOEL GETS ' INTO KENTUCKY VHAT HE SEE&lNDi HEARS". i-"M - - v: ;" AsHtANi), Ky., Dec ist, 1836. Ouc party of railroad experts has reach ed this city after tc long, fatiguing, 'but most interesting journey The 215 miles between Johnson City . and Ar.btl covers "a' country' of such immense and varied resources that brie: is lost isr won der that they should have remained un developed all the jo years Awhile great i-i.i i i ' - l 3 :i k I - . oiaiea iinve ueen peupieu i w western wilderness, and great centres of industry been established with millions of capital in regions remote from eoat, iron and timber, the three prin e essentials of mo dern manufacturing prosperity Yet nere are tnese raw materials in sncn vast abundance that the mind can tKarcelv crush (he idea of their immensity; 'From thVBlK Sandy river through to ' Scott county, Virginia, are coal measures, of unieasured magnitudes, and hard Woods and poplar in virgin. JbrsU covering millions ot acres. At f&emr are twenty-eight miles of Bessemer ore of tne purest quality A railroad 250 miles long, of which but 160 miles remain to be constructed, will open up all this - terri tory.' and bring the ore and coke to the blast furnaces of this Hanging Rock dis trict which lies on both sides of the Ohio River. In this district are more- than twenty blast and charcoal furnaces, many of them idle for want of ore, while others are making cheap pig iron at a small profit because they cannot afford to pay for hauling the Marquette, Lake Su perior, ore 650. miles.' There is one great furnace and nail works employing seven hundred men that makes soft pig for the market, but buys iron made elsewhere for . its nail manufactory. These iron men tell us that when they can get the Cranberry ore and the .youthEastern Kentucky coke, they will require eigh teen, trains daily of twenty cars each to supply their present capacity, and that witmn nve years their works will be doubled. So much for this end of the route But there is another view of the subject of infinite importance to North Carolina. The same freight trains that bring ore and coke this way will carry back coke and coal to the Cranberry dis trict in juitcneu county and supply the fuel for any number of blast furnaces c!o3? to the ore beds. What that means lor Mitchell county may be inferred from the fact that within a radius of five miles of Ashland is a popnlation of 22,000 dependent mainly on the iron industry for a living. But let us go a step further. Saproae Asheville were to construct a road across to Bakersville to effect a junc tion there with the Charleston, Cincin nati and Chicago, and thus get cheap coke. The Western North Carolina would bring from the great deposits in Cherokee county theirpurest hematite ores, and blast furnaces in Asheville could convert them into pig for distribu tion East, West and South. The same connection would give Asheville a short line to the North East and to Cincinnati and the Lakes. ' These are not specula tive or mythical suggestions, but practic able for execution if Asheville so elects. Much might be written had I time, of the immense resources' of the territory wo. traversed in other than the great staples "heretofore mentioned. "Jko coun- xryis thinly peopled, especially in South western Virginia. The greatest simpli city prevails. As a rule the people supply tueir lew neeos oy tneir own labor. Geese and duck feathers and ginseng purchase such luxuries as snuff, coffee and gunpowder at the little mountain stores. Homespun for men and women is the usual material for garments. Churches and school houses are far apart except in the county towns of Estillville, Gladeville and Clint wood. But there are vast natural pastures abundantly watered when stock will thrive, there are rich coves and bottoms that never felt the plow, there are tens ot thousands of acres that might be brought to the high est condition of fertility on which no man lives. To all these now remote re gions the railroad will carry population and enterprise until the "solitary place shall rejoice thereat." Jobi- Another Fire Alarm. - Yesterday afternoon - about half past three o'clock, the fiie alarm w as again sounded, and attention was directed to.he residence of Dr. McGfiH on" Chestnut . street, from which smoke was rising. The hose company pressed forward with all possible speed through . the snow, and got theVe In time to. subdue, with other aid that had. preceded. the flames.

A log had rolled from the fire upon - the floor, -r burning a'large hole, and thence finding its way into tne ceiling, and thence bursting out under the roof, serious ly jeopardizing the building.

' The Forum for December, is a strong number, containing as it does ten able articles by distinguished writers on live subjects. W. S.Lilly opens in an article on "The Present Outlook of Christianity," in which he takes the ground that the greatest peril of the present age lies in this that those who profess to be teachers of religion and defenders of the faith so seldom endeavor honestly to-follow out the lines ofthought familiar to earnest and cultivated men of the world. President E. J. "Robin son writes on "How I Was Educa ted;" Prof. Lester P.Ward on "Broad ening the Way to Success-" Francis Minor on "Woman's Ijegal Kight to the Ballot;" Judge Edward A.Thom- as 'tAbont Wills and Testaments;' Major J.

The articles in this number are all so fine that each one tempts to copi ous extracts We . commend es pecially the articles of W. S. Lilly, Rev.
