Vandiver delighted our eyes yesterday with Ihpgiftof by far the finest peach we have seen this year, an4 quite as fine as we ever saw in the moun tains. Its form and color are perfect. The form is somewhat oblate, and the color a dull red flecked with yellow spots and obscure stripes We do not propose to testify to the flavor. It weighs nearly fifteen punccs and is twelve inches in circumference. It was raised by Dr. J. W. Vandiver of Weaver ville. 1 ssa ' j ' jfcAif, Eoap Notice.

C A MTJNIFIOENT LEGACY, One Million, Six Hundred Thous and Dollars Left to ihe Chil dren of an Asheville . Lawyer- A Former South Carolinian Becomes a California Mil lionaire. BE REMEMBERS THOSE OF BLOOD. BIS "Yesterday the astounding and pleasing information was received by Mr. George W. Dillard, a lawyer now resident of Asheville but a na tive of South Carolina, that the uncle of bia two children had died re cently in California and left them the munificent siim of $1,600,000 to be divided equally between tnem The verity of the fact is established by the reception by Mr. Dillard of a certified copy of the will. The testator and his circum stances are personally known tooi.e gentleman, at least, in this city. The testator is James McCurry, late of Placer, Cal. He was a na tive of South Carolina, resident of Laurens. Mr. Dillard married his sister. A number of years ago Mr. McCurry went to California, appar ently with limited means. We in fer so, since shortly after his arrival wrote he back to some of his old friends for a Joan of one hundred dollars to aid him in his struggles to iortune. Mr. Dillard was the only one who responded. He borrowed the needed amount and forwarded it to Mr. McCurry. Afterwards it was returned, and with it came a valuable diamond ring to Mrs Dil lard, his sister. This kindness of Mr. Dillard without doubt influ enced the magnitude of the bequest Mr. McCurry contrived in time to purchase a body of land. It proved to contain rich gold deposits, and he sold it to a Boston syndicate for $300,000, which became the founda tion of a fortune estimated at from six to eight million dollars. Mr. McCurry was said to be the second I largest wheat grower in the world. I r XT., J ne was a oacneior. ix mnue eeracies emoracing otner memoers of his family in South Carolina, We may sincerely congiatulate Mr. Dillard on this change of for tune, which, while falling upon his daughter Laura, 11 years old, and his son 1 nomas aged 14, may pleas antly influence his own personal comfort and independence. Haywood County Luxuriant. The Sheriff of this fine county was in the city yesterday, and in view of the fine Court House the county possesses, bought for iu ;use at Sawyer's a fine carpet for the court room. The Things Needed. Like the gallant man he is in name and nature, Mr. W. L. Gallant offers to the ladies what he calls a ladies' lapboard and nurser, one of those happy labor saving devices that might occur to a Chinese, when work and pleasure can go on to gether without conflict. The present is ingenious, convenient and useful, and could only be improved in connection with the babies by an extra spanking attachment.- So popular is it when in troduced that the sales are rapid beyond parallel. It, or they, can be seen at Mr. Gallant's room at the Grand Central. Mr. u. has county rights to sel,. Uaii on him. See his advertisement in this issue. The Mistletoe Bough. ' Most unfortunately our business en gagements made it impossible for us to be present Wednesday evening at the Farmers' Warehouse ; and a gentleman through whose eyes we were to have seen, and through whose tongue we were to have spoken, was also denied the pleasure of presence.

INDUSTRIAL . TRAINING FOR - ' GIRLS. If I were able, I. would change the public sentiment so radically that no girl should be considered well educated, no matter what her accomplishments, until she had learned a business, a trade, or a profession. Lack of technical and in dustrial training not only mattes depend ent and inefficient women of onr daugh ters, but it puts them in fearful peril morally. Indolence is always demoraliz ing. It ruins health, destroys beauty and enfeebles the will. "Out of 2,000 fallen women in the city of New York, 1,800 had been brought op to do nothing; 500 pleaded destitution as the cause of their sad life. In view of toese facts, wmch might br multiplied indefinitely, ought we not to rid ourselves of the inherited social idea'that it is a shameful thing for young women to be taoght to support themselves by honorable industry ? It is as wasteful, as unwise, as inhuman, to send . onr delicatelvnurturea and tandarlV '.twrpd. .fron? home to fight the battleJEii life without a preparation for it, without an equipment in the form of an industrial and business education, as it is to send young fellows to hzht the enemy without drill and with out guns. The results are more disastrous and reach farther. Our daughters are not shot down like the untrained mili tary recruit; they live, but with no in dividual grasp .on' life; they" become anxious concerning the future, with no power to provide for it. At the mercy of circumstances which they know not how to control they drop into mental ill health, and bodily disease conies with it. In view of the above very just and forcible remarks copied by the New York WUness from the Christian Staiesman,.ve rejoice to learn that Rev. Mr. Pease and wife of your city, have consecrated their beautiful and spacious home to the in dustrial training and Christian education of the young females of our State." ' - Many worthy parents are deeply con cerned for the truest well-being of their daughters, but are without the means to auord them the high and usually expen sive advantages or already established seminaries and colleges.. Hence, when these advantages with additional ones which they do not furnish, are brought within the reach of parents cf limited means, at the low price of fifty dollars for a school year, let parents in this, as well as Buncombe co.unty, gladly avail them selves of them. - '. The Asheville Home Industrial School will open on October 5th. A 11 ENDEBSON COUSTT xAEENT.

We will give farther particulars subsequently, as we have at present only the mention of the fad fact. Fire. Last night for tho first time in many months tho fire alarm was sounded, and in a few minutes the square and Patton avenue werefilled with the excited crowd rushing down Patton Avenue towards mo oia uepot, near wnicn tne lire was reported to have broken out. The Hook and Ladder company was soon on its way; the new hose reel, drawn bv two horses was a little later, owing to delays in harnessing up. But away it went after a while, and was at the scene of service as soon as the other. And the whole turned out to be the explosion of a lamp at Hunt's store near the iron bridge, and no damage done; and so the fire department - Marched down the bill, And then marched up again."

That she is wor thy of a cordial welcome and a full house is confirmed, in addition to which we have heretofore published, by the following notice which we find in a recent number of the Charlotte Chronicle: '"The first Dlav tf tho acuiann t the Charlotte opera house, last night, was a good one, and was deserving of double the audience thai o-rrabwi it. Those Who witneflanrl tho nlan were unanimous in the ODinion that it was one of the most moral and elevating of all the plays yet wit nessed in this city, and' a decided credit to the stage. The rJot pretty well covered in. veiiPrrlnwV ' issue ofjhe Chronicle, and the ex pectations of the - playgders wete"' not cut, in a slightest degree, and " was presented with an mtif.h Tifi and animation as if the thmtro ho,l been packed from pit to dome. Mist Blythe is one of the best emotional actresses who has j et appeared upon the Charlotte stage, and she is sup ported by an excellent company.'' In fact, it is one of the bert plays, and one of the best companies that has been seen in Charlotte. The -play abounded in good features, , but among the best wa the sino-ino- of little Annie Floyd. She was call ed before the curtain three times, and even then the audience did not , seem to b satisfied. This company and the plav is Dresenls it wnrthv ' of goodhouses wherever it appears." The Charlotte Chroniclt says: The - report for last August, of Dr. F. Scan, cemetery keeDer. shows that during that month there were 19 deaths in Charlotte, of which num ber rj were among the white popu lation and 14 among the colored. Two merchants, one fropj Dallas and one from Lincolnton, arrived in Charlotte yesterday, on their way to Baltimore to buy drugs. While ; here they concluded to insDect the Charlotte market, but with no idea, nowever, ot buying here. They visited Burwell & Dunn, and the re sult was that Baltimore lost their ' trade. They boueht all their erooda ) here, instead of going to Baltimore for them, and saved monev bv the . operation.
