An Official Census to be Taken of Asheville Together With Numbering the Houses by the Southern Directory Company. : At a meeting of the Board of Alv dermen last Friday night the con tract was awarded the Southern Di rectory Company for taking a com plete census of the city and num bering the houses. This was dorje by the honorable Board in compli ance with the expressed desiret oi our busiuess men and citizens,. with the sanction of their own Jgood judgment and i,eet3 with hearty approval on every band. J he oth cial railway guide books of the north and west give Asheville a population of 2,61tj, according to the last census of 1880, or about one third of its present population. The official census will correct these wrong impressions abroad, and give a correctly compiled census, published in the valuble Di rectory Company are getting out for this city. The numbering of the houses is a work of no less importance to the city and will prove a convenience which would in a short time have been a necessity, and this company do this work for less than half the same would cost - the city to have the work done separately ,and when the population is larger. Hereto fore, it has been almost impossible for the thousands of annual visitors to find their way about the city, but this enterprise will entirely do away with such difficulties. A large photo-lithograph map will be placed in the front of their book, together with a most accurate and complete street directory. The body of the book will contain the name, color occupation, residence, place of business, number, married or single, over or under 20 years of age and the streets and crossings near the residence of every individ ual in the city. It will also con tain a neat card or advertisement from nearly every business or pro fessional man, and larger displays on inset colored pages from large business firms. - - This is an enterprise that will be of almost incalculablevalue to Ashe ville, and we are glad to know it is meeting with such - successful en couragement.

A Sihange Character. The following from the pen of Col. A. T. Davidson treats of a singular case. Says CoL D : "In the Fall of the year 1877 I waj at Murphy Court, county of Cherokee, Judge Furchcs presiding. A man by the name of Terry Shclton was indicted and charged with the murder of Thomas Shelton (his brothejr.) I appeared for the prisoner. The tfceeased was shot in the forehead with a urge ball, discharged from an army pistol, died instantly. There were but the two brothers, and the defence was put upon the ground of accident. There were was much testi mony by the State as to the manner oi killing, motives, Ace, and much by the prisoner to show the want ot motive, and that the killing was purely accidental. The only witness to the transaction was the mother of the two boys. While she was greatly affected, and seemed tobe laboring under great affliction, her tes timony showed clearly that the transac tion was accidental; or at least left the matter in such doubt that after a labored and pains-taking trial, the prisoner was acquitted. The prisoner was then a young man , near six feet four inches high,' with a striking face, rather Roman nose, a flow ing and healthy growth of hair, which had been carefully kept during his im - prisonment; and seemed then to be the pride of his person. During the trial he was self-possessed, woue not callous or indifferent, he demeaned himself as a man of self-possession and nerve; he was always clean in his dress, and entirely submissive to the direction and control of his counsel. He was acquitted, and while his friends in the Court room were congratulating each other, the counsel and prisoner, he seemed to be without feeling or emotion. On motion of his counsel he was dis charged without day. - l have never seen him since until this morning, and ohl how changed. He is without hair or beard, without oyebrow or lash, entirely smooth; his skin and tlesh as tender as a baby s, ms neaitn is good, and as a rule he 'demeans himself as a sober and quiet man.. I learn that, without mental or pnysi cat suffering, his hair began to drop off within six months, and without any physical or chronic disorder he is in bis present condition. " Queries: Is this & incase of physical disorder, or a casaW Troyidential visi . tation to mark rum as tne siayer oi nis brother. I leave these questions for the Scientists and Theologians. - A. T.

When Mr. Jenkins went to his bed room at half-past one. it was with the determination of going to sleep, and with another determination that he would not be interviewed by Mrs. Jenkins. So, as soon as he had entered the door, and de posited his lamp npon the dressing-tab'.e, he commenced his speech : "I locked the front door.' I put the chain on. 1 pulled the key out a little bit The dog is inside. ' I put the kitten out I emptied tbe drip-pan of the re frigator. The cook took the silver to bed with her.
