The Three C's Railway. The Virginia legislature was gran ted a charter to the Charleston, Cin cinnati and Chicago Railroad, after a bitter opposition by the friends of the Norfolk and Western. The counties in Virginia to be penetrated by this road are Scott, Wise. Dickinson and Russell. Col. Johnson, the manager of the road, stated to a reporter of the Richmond State that : "There is in the counties the best and inexhaustible deposits ot cok ing coal, limestone and red heme tites iron ores and plenty of the very best of water all the requisites necessary to induce the erection of of blast furnaces. This section has all the elements of and in larger quanties and better quality than Birmingham, Ala. The magnetic . ores ot Western North Carolina, adapted to the manufacture of Bttssemer steel which are needed to mix with the native ores found in these counties of Vir ginia, are but sixty to seventy miles distant. Capitalists of Boston and New York are already arranging to con struct blast furnaces in these coun ties as soon as the magnetic ores can be brought from North Carolina. The immediate and direct connec tion which this road will furnish with the magnetic ores of North Carolina insures the erection of Lblast furnaces in these counties. One modern blast furnace of the capaci ty of producing 150 tons of steel per day will employ from 1,200 to 1,500 men, thus creating a population of at least 6,000 people to each furnace. It is proposed to complete the road through Virginia, within the next eighteen months. The funds are all provided for the construc tion of this road, and by the time the road is completed from the 'ores of North Carolina to these counties there will be erected and in running order not less than two complete plants, including furnaces and mills for the manufacture of steel." These magnificent magnetic ores, notably developed at Cranberry, ex tend fr jm those mines through the counties of Mitchell, Yancey, Madi son, Buncombe, Haywood, on through Cherokee. We have strong hopes that after the C. C. and C. Road above is completed from the coal mines of Virginia to Charleston, crossing the W. N. C Road at or near Marion, a connection will also be made with Asheville ifrom or near Cranberry, following the zone of these magnetic ore 5eds, thui bringing the coal and coke of Vir ginia into close connection with these splendid iron ores. Verily the fu ture is very bright for all this moun tain section. "Th Trade Journal" " Is the name of a new candidate for public favor, to be issued in this place on the 15th .inst., by Mr. A. B.

If our genial friend Mr. Bob Garrett does not hurry up and sell his B. & O. Road we will end all the trouble bv stepping in and buyiug him out our selves. Asheville has long had her eye upon this B. & O. property, and may own iu Mr. Geo. W. Goodlake, who has been a resident of this place for thirty years, but who was a native of London, Eng land, has recently gone to the latter place for the purpose of securing a handsome little sum of money belonging to him there. The many friends of Mr. C. Y. Cheat ham, roaster of trains of the W. N. C Rail Road, will regret to learn that he has given up bis position to take effect to-day. Mr. Belraot, of Illinois, is his successor. Mr. Cheathan. will leave the city next week. Some little excitement was caused at Battery Park Hotel yesterday during the dinner hour by the ignition, through a spark, of lace window curtains in Mr. aouthwick's private parlor. The alarm was promptly conveyed, and the patent extinguishers applied with instantaneous effect. No harm was done except the destruction of the curtains.

An acre or so on every farm, a half acre garden even, would brine to the owner manv a useful shilling; and it is in such endeavors as these that many of our peopie certainly those who will first go into this business systematically, can make money "all the year around." Our people must stir up. Thousands of dollars are sent from Ashe ville every week which ought to be kept here at home. 1,500,000 Fkkt or Ltjmbkk.

A Madison friend writes us, nnder date of 28th, from Mars Hill : To day a num ber of beys with a dog struck the trail of a carp about one-half mile below E. Car ter's fish pond on the small stream of Gabriel's Creek. The carp gave the boys and the dog a lively race but was final I v apprehended, and when placed on the scales tipped the beam at 5 pounds, and measured 23 inches in length. But it must be said that the doe was the cantor of the fish. - - Rxoki.188 DarviNa Almost ah Aocidbnt. The following note from. onr towns an Mr. J. R.

Reckless driving through our Btreeta. c Oivded as they generally are should be punished promptly and severely in every case, and will be when called to the atten tion of the authorities. Mr. Patterson says Editor Citizen . I would like to call the attention of the authorities to the reckless driving which is frequently done I on our streets.- I wa run over Wednes day evening while on horse-back while on my way home and came near being very seriously hurt, and the driver was so indifferent to the consequences of his recklessness he did not even check his team before or after the occurrence. The reckless driving of carts, drays and all kind of teams s frequently a subject of remark, and our city is fortunate so far in not having been called on before this to pay damages for injuries done by such driving. itespectiuiiy, - . . .

The Mayoralty Mr. Sootx Declines, Amonz the names suggested in con nection with the mayoralty, the election of which is steadily approaching, that of Mr. George F. Scott has been received with mrch favor. He is a northern gen tleman who has lived among us, exacting respect by the high integrity of his char acter, by the sagacity of bis business measures, by the broadness of hia public spirit, and attaching manv friends by his blameless private life, and the mbanity of his manners. The nomination of Mr. Scott would have been acceptable to very many citizens; and they will regret the exprefsion of bis determination as con veyed in the following letter: Editor Citizen Gentlemen: As my name has several times been mentioned in connection with tbe office of Mayor, rlease inform the public that I am not a candidate. It would give me great pleasure to be honored by the peo ple, provided 1 could give the position time and attention-it demand. Mr businera relations are such that one or the other would Buffer, therefore I must positively decline a nomination. Faithfully yours, Ge. F. Scott. Help Wakted, and at once. We make no apology for the endorse ment of the subjoine 1 appeal in behalf of the Hospital. It is the voice of suffer ing htimanity that speaks; of a humanity that is common to ail-but a humanitv noor. gick.suffering.depeiident upon the help of the weil.tbe able and tbe chantable.sick ness has been fallen and comes with add ed weight with the burden of poverty. A gentle charity has stretched out its hands to give relief; but has grasped a weigh, too heavy for it to carry. Its inadequate powers are overetrained. It is forced to call for help. We believe the appeal has only to be made. It is an unselfish one, those who make it have nothing personal to gain, they ask only in the name of a suffering humanity they generously devote themselves to alleviate. Respond ye iich, and ye charitable, out of your abundance, or with the mite your condi tion enables you to- give. In the name of humanity it is all equally blessed. The Secretary of tbe Hi spital says : Owing to tbe very trying weather of the past month which has produced much eickness, the hospital is very full of pa tients, some very ill, and all needing constant attendance. The managers are therefore seriously embarrassed for want of funds to meet their expenses. They now appeal to their generous fellow citizens, and also the strangers in our midst, to come to the rescue. Any sum (however large or small) will be grate fully received. Contributions can be left with Mr. Rankin at Asheville Bank, or handed to Dr. Battle, Mayor Aston, or to any of the lady managers. ... tSBO. M. xx. A Gloucester dispatch of the 29 th says: One day lasf week, James Kemp, youm 01 about eigni sum mers, whose parents reside near this place, came near meeting a most horrible end. He was on his way to a neighbor's when he was attack ed by one of the largest" gray eagles ever seen in Tidewater VirgTiii&vAnd, after a terrific struggle on tbe boy's part for the mastery over the merci less and rapacious bird, with sharp talons and hooked beak, he succeed ed in conquering it . The eagle, I am informed, 'measured !nine feet from tip to tip. When the blood is loaded with impu rities, and move sluggishly in the veins, an alterative is needed, as th.s condition of tbe vital fluid cannot last long without serious results - There is nothing better than Ayer's Sarsaparilla to punfy the blood, and impart enesgy to the system.

Messages sent to them had no heeding.- Come to himself, and a man again, he resolved to appeal to the Mayor fot pardon. That tender-hearted functionary was mer ciful, and the gates of the jail were opened, . and the offender walked forth, to sin no more perhaps. Here is a part of the appeal "My offence if you recollect was for being drunk and I have been here ever since Saturday night- please pardon me this time and I will be snore and do so no -more V , ourft trul,:.X Tobacco Suggestions. In an article In a recent number of the Richmond Whig we find the following .- "It is evident that the planters of Virginia will be compelled, by the large production of low-priced toi bacco in Kentucky and other States west of us, to confine themselves to a few select lines of this staple, and in order to make sure of getting wnat they at, will have to curtail their crops. In certain sections they can raise the heavy shipping leaf, in other sections the yellow wrapper, tne sweet nlier, tne bnght cutters and smokers. In these grades, Vir ginia and North Carolina are with out serious competition, and the markets of the world will not soon be glutted with these high standard goods. Anything else will be pro duced at loss in this State." This is precisely on the line to which we have aimed to direct our planters quality rather than quan tity. Let them appreciate one solid fact ; that in yellow wrapper , sweet fillers, cutters and smokers, North Carolina and Virginia are practical ly without competition. Then, with this field their own, let the produet be made as perfect as care, judgment and skill can make it. Tli ri will be in proportion to merit. But in the common tobaccos, we have the world as a rival, and any section can excel na in making bad tobacco. It is. thoexcosE of t Lit? tliatgiu.s the market and keeps the prices down. A Drummers' Test Case. The Raleigh correspondent! of the Richmond Dispatch, under date of the 30th says: ''There is a test case in the matter ol the law as to drummers' license sooner than was expected. At Wil mington R. E. Foster, a drummer from Chicago, it as arrested yester day and taken before Justice Mill is upon the charge ol a violation ol the drummers license tax law. Jhe Justice bound the defendant over to the next term of the criminal court of New Hanover county in the sum of $400, but was brought before Judge Mears in chambers on a writ of habeas corpus this morning. Judge Mears held that the law is unconsti tutional, and Foster was discharged. Foster's petition recites that he was restrained of his liberty by the Sheriff of New Hanover county; that the cause of restraint is under and by virtue of the com mitment 01 the justice mentioned, and that petitioner's restraint or im prisonment is illegal in that he was arrested under a statute impos ing a tax on drummers, which stat ute is unconstitutional and void, as he is iniormed and believes. Judge Meares in his opinion nays he is governed in rendering fjudgment by the decision ot supreme Court m the recent case from Tennessee. The sheriff, at the instance of the "solici tor, has written to the Secretarv-of- State Saunders recommending that a writ of certiorari issue from the Supreme Court to test the constitu tionality of the law " - The Sultan of Morocco has ban ished whiskey from his domains.
