We saw a letter yesterday from Mr. T. n. Powell written from Boston. He visi ted that city in connection witb the rail mad project which brought him here some weeks ago.

Cozine also sold a lot at the same house. with i rices ranging from SO to $47. The result of the sales placed about twice as much money in their pockets as -thev expected to realize. The beautiful weather yesterday add ed anima ion to the workers on the var ious undertakings going on immediately under our ken. Just opposite our office the excavation for Col. Williamson's new building was begun. lust below. Ched- ester bad a laree force at work on the foundations to the laree addition to the Grand Central; just around the corner a large street force was at work bringing the sidewalk on the last ol the Hugh Johnston building down to grade prepar atory tn inymg tre new pavement; while opposite, ..I, ihef'ooper building painters were, at work einblaz n--r on a great white square on the va! a u,e condensed signs, in bright colors, of almost all the business houses in the place. And then every thing seemed in motion. Carriages and horsemen and horsewomen, and ladies, an I files of baby carriages, passed and repassed with electric movement, a- d the whole scene was that of a gala day. bright, beautiful and exhilarating. Exciting Runaway. Yesterday morning about eleven o' clock, the streets about the square were the subjects of a high temporary excite ment. A horse attached to one of Ched- ster's wagons broke loose from the team at one of the brick yards, tearing loose, when he broke away .the cross bar. which fell at his heels. The faster he rau the more tbe appendage beat his heels, and he dashed through College street in the very wildest frenzy of terror. When he turned into tbe .Square, the impetus ac quired was so great that be could not control his direction, and ran against the fence, breaking it from its fastenings; then turning, making one of the most remarkable leaps we -ever saw made, clearing at a bonnd the corner of the fence which is of ornamental work, crowned with a group of iron spear heads, all of which he bent down to a horizon tal line; then again into the stret ts, and away to his stable, pursuing bis wild flight, regardless of all effort to stop him. In fact th:S was so dangerous that there was a general tauve qii peuU - Of course the horse is badly hurt, but the lacera tions are not to great as might have been expected. Niw Japanese Goods.

We learn that on Wednesday morning a white man, James Hart, was found drowned in Pigeon river at Newport, Terin. He had "been intoxicated the night before, and is presumed to have fallen accidental ly in the water. He was a shoe maker by trade, his home at Jones boro, Tenn., but was carrying on his trade at Newport. Madison Itens. Mr. M. A. Ball, from Ramsey vilie, informs us that his in his section tobacco plants were so materially injured by freezes as to reduce the acreage planted this year in tobac co. Wheat and oats are looking well. More grass has been sowed than usual. Farmers are now planting corn. Of the fruit crop he says apples promise abundantly, and in some localities there is no scarcity of peaches; in others nearly all are Killed. Mr. Ball mentions rather a singu lar incident. A tenant of Mr. Lee Ramsey was ploughing when his hor3e took fright, ran away, s'um bled and fell against a rock, clash ing out his brains, dying instant ly. Look Ahead. The rapid advance in the pros perity and population of Ashe viUe is due to the combination of many circumstances. The great beauty of its surrounding scenery and the healthfulncss of its climate were chief and primary in ducements, utililized fully -when made accesible to the great busi ness protpects which opened under thejacknowledged centrality dfjloca tion and the abpolute certainty that it was an inevitable focus of several important lines of road which would connect it by the shortest routes with every part of the country. But it is not to be denied that certain internal conditions were needed to the expedition of de velopment. There is no growth without the use ot capital: and there will be no use of capital without confidence in its security. The stationary condition of Asheville for three quarters of a century, with the same climate and the same scenery, is proof of this. It is true, that for a greater part of that period the gates to access were c'osed ; but when they were thrown open, there was no capital awaiting outside to flow in spontaneously. . It awaited invit lion, it awaited encourage ment, and it demanded security . This it has had during the past four years under an honest, a judicious, and sagacious municipal adminis tration. It is within this period that the most rapid strides forward have been made. It is within this period that the character which fixes confidence at home and abroad has been established. Now do not jeopardize this ; do not shake the confidence of the present, do not cloud the prospects of the future, by ill-advised meas ures relating tD the choice of anoth er administration. Everything de pends upon wisdom in the selection of such administration. The pres ent is deeply involved in it ; it is of most vital consequence to the fun turd. Offices are not the footballs of partv; places are not the stakes for which politicians alone are to play. The government of a city is a, matter of business, not of politics. Good men, judicious men, safe and cautious men, sagacious men, are what are demanded for the time ; a time when the city stands on tbe very threshold of its development. Shall it recede, stand still, or ad" vance? And this depends on the wisdom of present action. An Irish non commissioned offi cer of the artillery, who had for some time been employed in a con fidential capacity in tbe ordnance office at the Woolwich arsenal, has been degraded in the rank and dis missed from his position without trial on the oharge of having sold the. secrets of the office. His civil ian accomplice has also been dis missed. ' Ayer's Cathartic Pills are suited to every age.

Fur the AahevUle Citizkh, THAT BUTTER BUSINESS. Editor Citizen: A question is never properly discussed until both sides have a hearing. This butter business has been uncommonly well tnrasbed out from the consumers point of view, and the por Buncombe farmer,' who has never yet 6aid a word, has been pretty severely handled. We are poor shift less mortals, it is true, but in the matter of butter we are not so much to blame as at first sight appears. ' IV 18' well enough known that, there, is femt'nat fmade by the last Legislature are to mention oleomargarine. You Mr.rw,!- -JL'fi&'aWnn.'l aa-miaW f.ll. 1 1 ! .t:. .. l everything) what the general public nave yet to learn, that there are severa. kinds of good butter. A very fair dual ity can be made from ensilage or fodder with the addition of a little bran. By adding to the cow's bill of fare as much corn meal as she will eat freelv you do not increase the quantity of butter much, but you give to it that fine nutty flavor so much prized by connosseurs. and to the value of it at least fifty per cent. iow irom what has been appearing lately one would imagine there would be no difficulty in disposing of any quan tity of such butter in ABheville. But let me give you a little history : We keen a few cows, two of which are always giving miii. We feed corn meal and bran con stantly and make what is admitted to be first class butter. For the last four years we have supplied one family with 8 lbs. per week at thirty-five cents, but beyond that have always had a dimcultr in ret ting as much as thirty cents, and butter of that' quality cannot be made at: a prof it for less than thirtr -five. In a famine of course good prices can be had. but a steady market is what is wanted, and Asheville does not anoid that- At Christmas my wife received an order from a lady fo. four pounds a week. On the day after getting the order the four pouude were sent, but meantime the lady had saved a few cents by buy ing four pounds of greasy stuff for a dol lar, and our messenger had to bring the utter home Stimulated bv your articles, we re solved to increase our stock to six cow it least, but prudently made inquiries first about a market. Would you believe t sirs that althorgh w ca'led at the hotels ind every likely place in Asheville we could not fand a single soul, save and except your friend Bill N . e, who would promise to take butter regularly at thir ty-five cents a pound? So ,it eeems to me that the Banco tube farmer is not so tupid as he looks. Yours, etc., Bunoombb Farmer. The Thespian ENTERTAi'MBi!T At tbe- Opera House last night, drew one of the largest crowds we have seen n the hall, and the performance through out was in every respect a splendid suc cess.

Interesting Haywood County Items Our much respected friend Mr. D. V. McCracken writes us that the farmers in his section are doing Well, and that peaches are not killed', apples not hurt; here is a less acreage of tobacco, aad a large quantity of plants killed by freezing. o.r. M cCracken gives us some lnterest- ng items relating to the first tettlement of the county. Among the first settlers, who came in between 1802 and 1810, were the families of the McDowells, Mc- Connells, McCrackens, McFarlauds, Ste- phensons, W ltuams, latums, Kimseys, Davidsons, .Nelsons, unisons, Walkers, Chambers, Scrogii.8, Roses. Mclntyres, Wilkinsons, Kussells, Morgans. Craw- fords, Murrays, Pattersins, Stiles, Pen- lands, Plotts. These were alt revolution ary soldiers. There were also the Hag- lins. Hoods, Alasseys, Kitiians and nulls, from tbe latter of whom is the name of Iron Duff, Post Office. , ' Between 1810-20, came in the Kirk Patricks, Osbornes, Byers, Poseys, Hayes, Howells, Rogers and others. In 1801 the hi st grist mill in tbe county was erected on Raccoon creek, at Welch's. The first saw mill was erected two miles below the present Clyde, on Pigeon river. A Bad Boston Boy. A small boy in ..Boston, who nad uniortunaieiy learned to swear, was rebked by his father. "Who told your that I swore?" asked the bad little boy. Oh, a little bird told me," said the father.

In plowing over an old still house plaee he excavated a gallon jug, the wooden stopper of which had crumbled away down in to mouth. The jug was two thirds full of brandy . that is at least 25 years, old, as no stilling has been done -at that place since the war. If age can add to the excellence of brandy that ought o be a prime article. The Wilmington Review sfys: Hon. A. M. Waddell has been invit ed to deliver the oration at the un veiling of the monument at Smith field.Johneton county, on May10th, in memory of the Confederate dead who lost their lives at the battle of Bentonville, in 1865. Senator Vance -had been invited to deliver Jie ora tion on that occasion, but owing to other engagements has been obliged to decline. It is. probable that Col. Waddell will accept the invitation. The New Observer has an account of a mild cyclone which visited some of the middle counties on Monday. It says : ' In Chatham v couuty be tween Moncure and Pittsboro, the belt which it swept was from one fourth to ona half a mile wide and the force was' greater. Trees as large as"a flour barrel were twisted entirely off near the base, leaving stumps with long fibres which made a fearful noise as the whipped to gether. Ti e store of Mr. no. Knight was blown to pieces, and the gooas scattered in all directions for several hundred yards. Reports were re ceived here yesterday to the effect that seven eonvicts had escaped from the squad at work on the grad ing of the Cameron and Carthage railroad. The convicts are kept ina stockade, located about two miles from Camert n, and the escape was effected by cutting through the floor ol one of the buildings and making their way over the stockade in the darkness while the guards were watching the doors and win dows. "My dear," said a fond father to his fashionable daughter, wlo is soon to be married,"if George should at some future time meet with re verses and his fortune should be swept awa', which occasionally oc curs to silver mine speculators, could you meet the emergency? Could you lor instance, go into the kitchen and make a loaf ot bread?" 'What a foolish papa," rep'ied the" dear girl' brightly ; "why, I would send to the baker's for it!" There have been thirty-eight secretaries of the treasury, or; rather, thiity -seven gentlemen have held that office, Mr. McCulloch having served twice. They were, as a rule, voune" men, and younger in the early days of the Republic than now, Alexander Hamilton being the first and tbe youngest. If is hard to think of him the "sage"" of the Federalist party. th ripest states' man of - Washington's Cabinet, the most original and the strongest character, after Washington, of the formative period as only dz, wnen, fourteen years alter the opening of Revolutionary war, he was called to be Washington's most intimate and most respected adviser. It is cur ious to note that three of the secre taries were foreign born, and the two most famous Hamilton and Albert Gallatin. New York, like Pennsyl vania and Massachusetts, was the birthplace of four secretaries, though of these the best know, Mr. Sher man, is usually thought of as an Ohio man. Three secretaries have held the office only between one and two months, and two of these were called in the stormy times at the close of Mr. Buchanin's Admin istration. Health Note. The summer is once more on us, and while we may, in onr excellent climate, rpaannnhlv hone to pass throueh it With' out a visitation of the frightful scourges wbich are so terrible in some parts of tbe Sotithr vet we must expect . .ne aroai amount of summer troubles. Among these, diarrhoea or snmmer complaint is most to be dreaded. Fortunately this may be rendered harmless by using Dr. Lvtle's Elixir, which should be found in every family. t "i- : Try Moore ft Kobards' Excelsior Soda tnft W i U UW7 jv9 P88 ; H THE CALHOUN MONUMENT.

J H. Avebiix. Supt. S C. Railroad. Affairs in Raleigh First Ship ment of Pew. The Raleigh correspondent of the Richmond Dispatch, writing nnder date of Wednesday, says: The directors of the penitentiary met this morning at the prison, and were in session an day. rne matter of the recent mutiny was consider- d. ine convicts concerned in it were ordered to be punished bv close confinement and bread and water diet. The ringleaders are yet to be more severely punished. The pun ishment began to-day. Captain Stamps, president of the board, says that the convicts in rebellion are now entirely submissive. Much of the session of the board was devoted to hearing applications for convicts. Gentlemen from the eastern coun ties of Brunawick, Sampson, Lenoir and Carteret appeared and applied for all the 325 convicts allowed by the late Legislature for the great scheme of canal and road improvement in that sec tion, or in any event for enough to carry on the work, ''he board in formed these gentlemen that the penitentiary was so cramped an to finances that it would have to -hire out most of its convicts and could not act in the matter at present, but must brat see how much it can ob tain from the hire of outside con victs. Thousands of false reports have been current through the city con cerning the penitentiary revolt since Saturday night. One widely current yesterday among negroes was that Jim Day is, the negro con vict who was by force disarmed, died of his injuries. It was absolute falsehood. Davis was discharged from the hospital yesterday and was again put at work. Ihe first box of peas was shipped from Newberne Tuesday. Tht crop will not be anything like the aver age in size, yet much better than wrs considered poaeibfo when the frosts struck it. Ex Congressman Frank Jones, of New Hampshire, arrived in New York from the South on Saturday last. Mr. Jones is one of the richest men in the Granite State and a very influential Democrat. He spent some time while South in Flor ida, and halted for a week in Washing ton on his return. He said, however. that bis trip bad nothing to do with politics but was purely a hei 1th excur sion. "Tbe South is booming in every direction," he added, "and offers eood (-inducements to men with money to nvest. The Democratic partv in 1884 was handicapped by the charge that the business interests ol the country would be rained by its success. That fallacy has been exploded, and we shall have a clear field in tbe race next year. I be lieve that nothing sboit of a miracle can prevent our winning the Presidential contest next year. I think that Mr. Cleveland is the best man for us to nom inate.
