A Would be Thief Caught On Monday night Mr. McKee, clerk at the postoffice, saw some thing in the shape ol a hand at tempting to finger some of the let ters and packages in the postoffice, but upon his movement to catch the owner of the hand the latter turned and fled, not until h w&4irn however. Mr. McKee called 'depu ty marshal Hampton's attention to the matter, and yesterday Mr. fiatnpton met tLe stranger - and took him in. His name was Mitch ell Boyce, and was at once recog nized by Mr. McKee. He was ta- ken into custody, and is held for examination before commissioner Summey to-day. - Baby Fouro. In a field near the depot a dog unearth ed, yesterday, a box which attracted attention; and on examinaiion it was found to contain the remains of an infant. The attention of the authorities war called to it, and Drs. Millard and Hill ard went down and examined into matters. It was discovered to be a white liild, and has been buried about three days. It was evidently a premature birth. Mr. Uesver of tbe finkertnn DeteMive Agency was put to work at once by Mayor Aston, and be is on a cler track: of tbe party guiltyof this Sense. He found several very strong points yesterday evening, and thinks he will have all the facts to-day. Lit Justici bk Domic and the Truth Prevail. The following explains itself : I was present at the interview between dpt. J. M. Gudger and Capt. J. 8. Adams, in which Capt Gudger distinctly and mphatically stated that he was a Dem ocrat, that his first allegiance was to the Democratic party that u the party met in convention, nominated a ticket, mat he would go into the convention, there express his preference 'abide tbe result, and work for tbe ticket, and that bis friends would do so as far as he could influence them' We all expressed admir ation for Capt Gudger's patriotic course as a man and Democrat. KOOBB J. PaG. Some misunderstanding having gone out as to my interview witb Capt. UndiT- er And I having been requested to state the truth oi the matter, I join in the above statement and endorse it as correct J. 8,;Adams, I was present at the above interview. and tne above statement is true. W. H. Finland. It is scarcely necessary to call attention to the patriotic card of that sterling young democrat, ' Dr. Queen, withdrawing from' the race tor Mayor. It is said to be . sweet to die for one's country we have never tried it but sweeter far 'must it be to one's conscience to have the courage ' and '' unselfish pa' triotism to decline proffered honors in behalf of .the public good.- Dr. Queen has set a good example, which we fain would hope all good citizen will follow.

J .f A serious matter confronts the citizens of Asheville just -now On next Monday a Mayor and three Al dermen are to be elected, the may or for two and the' Aldermen for, four years. This election involves very much to the welbeine our city; Th'e administration of our city, certainly for the past five or six y6ar has contributed very- fxreatly .to ifa splendid prosperity and the. era . qt progresss upon which it has enter tered. The good credit and the pro1 aressive character of the city de pends very larpely upon the jotelU gent' conservative character of the officers entrusted its administration. Any or all who may or could.Hsnire to these .fifiices could be i'len ol they possess not that enlightened and progressive intelligence and judgment they would be. failures as administrative officers.'. The char acter for this intelligence must be known or even then, an injury is in dieted, at least for a time, upon that confidence upon which our prosper ity is based. 'Asheville is fortunate in the pos session ot it number ol men, uf both political parties, too', who possess .the qualification necessary for a sate, conservative administration, and would promote raiher than retard the progress of the city. All of these cannot be elected at one time; un der our ponstitution and laws we can ony elect one Mayor, and, 4now, three Aldermen. The nomination ol any of them, we care not how se lected, or by whom, or where, by partizan conventions, or citizens' mass meetings will not please every body, or the immediate friends of disappointed aspirants. There must be some yielding, by some one, or many posnibly, in any case, that is, 15 personal prtjudicts can be laid aside for the general Igood. Not to h-acr.fiee this prejudice or personal preferences, sfmply mean? the turn, iug over of our city, partially, now, two years later altogether, to ele ments of ignorance if nothing worse. Can our citizens afford this? We appeal o the selfmterest,if nojhigher motive can be reached, of our good people to consider well And seri ously this matter, and unite for the best interests of our city. ' x The ticket headed by Hon.. James M. Gudger is composed of honest, working, intelligent citizens- , It is true it was jelectefl by a large meeting of the white t-vorkinz 1 1 mr. 0f Asheville : and a lare num- "TberTlrXJ Asj Mil r tiitQr-nm fi.wT I : . .

But, regardless of All this, the working men have put' out not only an intelligent, and honest ticket, but one of decided strength. t represents not only different sec tions, but different intesests, all of which ought to be, and must be rec ognized in the selection of city offi cers. With this ticket, if elected, and the present board, there will be one lawyer, two merchants, two la- bor representatives, one tobacconist, one hotelist in control of the- city government. Why cannot our peo ple unite on this ticket I We sub mit to our people, the choice must result either in this or in that which w much more oojeaionaoie. - uan hose whose every interest is in volved in the continued good gov- erment ol our city, afford to divide in the face of positive, existing facts? We submit this matter to the dis passionate, patriotic judgment of our people. The Month of April. "V. April is an eventful month, and has been much mixed bp in history.

Dr. J, L. M.' Curry, the for mer broad minded agent of the Pea bod v furv7. now U. S.

It is "well known that Dr. Curry holds the educational interests of Nashville in close regard, aod es daily the Normal Institute, and that he was largely instrumental in bringing about the action of the Tenr.e: ee Legislature spi.r. pasting liberally and opportunely to this inetitution. 1 be position is one in which Dr. Curry's great breadth of mind, uncommon strength of char acter, and extenssve mental culture. would, find not only a congenial but most promising field. The position is a lifeiterm office. With this rip ened intellect at his bead, the atten- tionof the trustees of the Peabeyly fund at large would not, coald not, fail to be directed towards Nash ville as the only place in the South meriting the munificent endow ment of $7,000,000 which, by the terms of Mr. Peabody's wi.l, goes, alter now some six or seven years remaining, to lound and endow h university at some point in the South.

Four Decades. The renewal of their old acquain tance by George Bancroft and Mrs. James K. Polk is an interesting ep isode. The' venerable but still ac tive historian is paying a visit to the widow of our President of forty years ago, and the two have had a pleasant talk together about old times at the White House and in Washington. The dinorence between the coun try of Polk's Administration and that of Cleveland s is almost unbe lievable, unless the facts are statis tically compared. The population has increased nearly threelold since the period of the former. Almost the entire railroad system has been established in the meanwhile, and the telegraph wholly so. The "Northwest" and the Pacific slope have become civilized, the war for the Union has been fought, slavery abolished, and a now and better prosperity in the South founded on the ruins oi the old. ' Who now in Washington official ciroles will call on Mrs. Cleveland forty years hence to recall the scenes of the present day? And what will be the changes they will have to note? There will be a great increase in population; certainly, but it is scaroely possible that there can be mechanical or ecientiho ad' vances equivalent to those, of the last four decade.". Will the Cleve land Administration then belong so utterly to a closed volume of histo ry as the Polk Administration does now ?Is there a war, civil Jbr for eign, in store lor us in the. mean- time ? .We have but to look back to realize that a great deal can take place in forty years. And yet neitner w.r. uancrou nor . . i r r ft Mrs. Polk were very young when the latter presided over the White House. ,vAnd Mrs. Cleveland will be but upon the threshold of old age forty years hence.- Notwith' standing this, the present genera tinn in public life in Washington will have vanished utterly trcm tne capital with the possible exception of some "Last Leaf," like Mr. tfan croft, who may haye the wonderful happiness of uniting in remimscen es with Mrs. Cleveland .Keto York World.

This morning at an early dawn the streets were full of oeoplu including a large number of strfangsrs The immense throngs gather ed on the ba.tery to witness the forma tion of the procession, which was one of the largest and grandest ever seen in Charleston. The procession moved from the battery a little after noon, proceed ing directly up Meeting street a mile and a half to Marion Square, where the Cal houn monument is situated, and where the stage capable of holding one thous and people had been erected for the orator and specially invited guests. The procession was formed as follows : -The military escorting the governor and his staff, and tbe chief marshal and uis BHtiisunts. Second, the mayor and city council of Charleston and of other cities. Third, the presidents, professors and students of the universities, colleges and schools of the State and the city. Fourth, the various civil societies of the city. Fifth, the Odd Fellows, Free Ma sons, Knights and other kindred organi zations. Sixth, distinguished guests and others. Seventh, citizens generally.

The number of spectators along the route was not lens than 20,000, and the crowd that gathered around the statue was but little less. There was a liberal display of bunting everywhere, the Uni ted States flag occupying a conspicuous place in the column, on the houses and ia the speaker's stand. The statue was draped by both the State and national colors, which were drawn away by six little children, while thirty-five young ladies and mi ses Btood around as sponsors.
