Mr. B. went on a isit to his old English borne some time in August, sailing from New York in the steamship Ohio. He will leave in the eame vessel about the 20th inst. Mr Buttrick expresses the pleasure that the visit has given him and his keen enjoy ment of old scenes and the companion ship of old friends. The question of the extension of rail road facilities by the encouragement and aid to new roads to centre in Buncombe county, whose action will be mightily in fluenced by our action, is now fairly and squarely presented to our people. The question is, shall we take some risks to accomplish great ends? Shall we incur a county debt upon the foundations of which f o build up a prosperity in com parison with- which the debt is a trifle ? The measure of debt is the weight with which it presses upon him or them who incur it. If the investment represented by the debt return its hundred or a thousand fold, tben, in that view, a debt is convened into a blessing. Tne direct fruit of such debt is to increase popula tion to great extent, to add to the iteniB and variety of business, to enhance 'the value of property, to enlarge the subjects oi taxation, to swell tne volume ol assess' ments. And distributed among this in creased number of people, and this en larged neid or taxation, to fall lighll v ud on the individual, while every one and every interest will share in the general Denent. Buncombe county can therefore not only safely but wisely take the steps necessary to secure the advent oCiejor; or nan a dozen or a dozen new rail road into its territory. The burden of con' struction, after all, falls upon the con' structing companies. What the county is called upon to contribute would not build much, over half a dozen miles of each of the roads for which aid is pro posed to be given, and not a solitary cent towards equipment. What Buncombe is asked to give is the contribution of en couragement, good will and rational in terest It would attain its object in the construction ot these roads, or any of them, at wonderfully small cost.

Mr. Austin is holding a protracted meeting . at the school house near Mr. Jaftob Sams in upper Madison, and we learn has aroused deep interest. ' Capt. Natt Atkinson & Son, owing to 'the demolition of the old Western Hotel in which was their Real Estate office, has taken rooms temporarily in the new ChediBter building on Patton Avenue. When the new Barnard building is finished they will take position permanently fitted up with special reference . to their business. We had the pleasure of -a call last evening from Mr. Wro. J, Wine gar, of Palatka, Florida, who- has been spending some time . in Ashe ville but wh leaves for home to-day-Mr. Winegar, while a banker by profession, has claims to the news paper world, as he is President of the corporation which publishes the Palatka Daily Newi. The Spears estate has bought three lots embraced in the John ston property including the two bought recently at public sale by Mr. W. T. Weaver. During this fall a brick building for mercantile pur poses will be erected on the lot next to C. E. Graham's, and before long all the lots sold will be covered with handsome structures. A fourth lot, adjoining the three, has also beeri purchased by Messrs. W. T. and N. A, Revnolds. Married. In this city on the 14th, at the residence of Mr. B. H. Cosby, by the Rev, Dr. Bays, Mr. W.

We receive our Charleston and Au gusta papers, printed the evening before, by breakfast time the next morning, al most as soon as many of the city sub scribers of those places do. Whatever inconvenience first grew out of the night schedules on the lines leading out oi the cities named has disappeared, the press having accommodated itself to circum stances, and now pleased to learn that its work is more rapidly distributed than ever before.

The Danville Register of the 11th, says: "It was learned yesterday that some of the new is curing beautifully, and at present indications the croD will be one of the finest ever raised in this section of country. All who are interested seller, buyer and warehousemen are honeful lor the best results." We have seen no new tobacco of the crop of this section, but all reports concur in the representation that the quality promises to be superior. The weather of the past three weeks has been highly favorable to perfect ripening. German Millet. . - Mr. Frank Polk, of Elk Moutk '.' Vy terday brought us a bundle ot thy - yve forage plant It was raised on gijund unmanured, and a good deal worn; yet it stands nearly six leet high, and stood thick upon the ground.

What is the Matter with the Jails or their Keepers? Within the past fortnight the escapes have been so numerous as to reflect seri ously upon the security of the prisons or the watchfulness of the keepers. Re' cently six men confined in the Durham county jail, all for serious offences, made their escape, by a Tuse overpower ing tne jailer, i he next week seven escaped from the Macon county jail, im mediately followed by the evacuation ot the Kockingbam county jail by every prisoner in itNowth? Washington Gazette says three prisoners escaped from the Beaufort county iaii. JNot long since three escaped from the Asheville city guardhouse. Arrests are idle if the facilities of escape are so ready. Divine Tobacco Which from East to West cheers the Tar's labors and the Turkman's rest" so wrote Bryon, in one of his hyperbolic strains.

" r mv Maav Gentlemen of lhe Wzcn i ' As one of the planters, I want to send my endorsement-of the proposed mass meeting. Everybody" knows that I am identified with all the interests of the planters,) and that I move from solid con victions in all my business .operations. My : taxes are already high, but the thought of making them .three or four dollars higher, and niy property worth fifteen hundred dollars more, and having Buncombe county made literally into a great city, is reason enough for me to go for the tax. If I can live by selling cab bage heads at 3 cents each, pand ay $30 tax J can surely do better.to pay f 34,;and sejl them at 8 cent each ? . Bring your pew railroads through the county, and my cozy little Weaverville will be lost in the great Blue Ridga Town of America, Then I can sell applts at 40 cents, now I only get 20.

Mooney, connected with the Asheville Furniture Company, was crossing the track near the depot with a piece of tim per on his shoulder, he was struck by a car attached to an engine backing down the track. The engineer, as in duty bound, was ringing his boll, but the rear of the train was towards Mr. Mooney, and he did not hear the signal. The end of the car struck the piece of timber. knocking Mr. Mooney down, his neck being slightly cut with the timber, and he was thrown across the track. He scrambled hurriedly to relieve himself. but before he could do so his right foot was caught by a wheel and partially crushed. He was brought up into the city at once and Drs. Burroughs and Williams called to his aid. They took off the great toe and dressed the injury, and though suffering much, Mr. Mooney is doing as well as is possible, Fire in Weaverville. This quiet little place has had its bap tism of fire. ' Mr. Logan Mackey informs us that yesterday the awful sound of "fire, fire" smote the startled ear of the unsuspecting citizens, and the lurid flames were seen issuing from the tin shop of Dr. J. W. Vandiver. The steam hre engine was out of order: the hook and ladder men were out at a pic nic at the Springs, Dr. Wing has immortaliz ed, and the doomed building was left a helpless victim to its fate, and perished. We however do not mean to sport with calamity, and most heartily sympathize with our esteemed old friend Dr. Van- diver in the loss he was subjected to; and also congratulate him upon the fact that it wm not a,.sew6usj343rfer as it threat ened to oe. . . . Since the above was written we have received a note from Dr. Vandiyer asking us to return his thanks to the citizens of Weaverville white and black for their valor and alertness in protecting his store house and residence from very imminent danger. The Doctor -says his loss was a few hundred dollars only; but Mr. Anderson who occupied the tin shop lost bis entire outfit The News Observer, says .- Adju tanb-General Tones is now perfect ing the details of the plan provid- ng for the attendance of the 1st, 2d, 3d and 4th regiments ot the btate Guard as a brigade, on the occasion of the laving of the corner stone of the Lee monument in Richmond October 27th. The trip will be a pleasant one for the boys. It will cover three or four days only and will be comparatively inexepn sive. It appears that the Presi dent will not pass through North Carolina on his trip to the West and South, therefore Govenor Scales and staff will not join the Presidential party as we proposed in case it passed through the State. A part of the programme is that the Govi enor and Govenor's staff of each State through which the President will escort him through Wil mington has taken steps this year to haul in a good many more b,ales of cotton than heretofore, taking the staple from under the very noses of Charleston and Norfolk to the dis gruntlement of these latter cities.

A News spe cial from Ottawa says: At :dU a. m, Justice Magruder began the an nouncement of the decision in the Anarchist cases. Just before the opening of the court every one seemed to have a feeling that some thing was going to happen. Before the hour ot convening of the -court the lawyers and reporters seemed to have that feeling ana conversed with each other in subdued tones Even Banker, the ianitor, who has waited upon, 'everv Justice of the Supreme Court that sat upon the bench in Ottawa, walked around in opening and dusting the court room as if afraid of breaking the deathly stillness that pervaded the entire building. Deputy Smith fall tered. and his voice trembled as he pronounced, "Hear ye, hear ye, as the Justices filed into the court room, headed bv Chief Justice Shel don. They appeared more digni fied than ever. The Chief Justice waved his associates to their seats even more stately than was wont: his nod to the sheriff was more stiff, and his "ooen court", less audible than on previous days of the term Justice Magruder appeared flushed and nervous as be entered tne court room, the cause of which was evi dent a few moments later, ; when Chief Justice Sheldon - returned to him and in a voice ? which would have been inaudible "save -for the deathly -' stillness w.hich : prevailed said, "Justice , Magruaer have you any announcement to make?" The flushed appearance of 'the justice changed to that of pallor and his voice was husky as he replied, "In August Spies and others against the people of the State of Illinois, No: 59 advisement docket" The Chief Justice turned the leaves of the court docket to the case indicated. He read the decision of the court in the "an. archist case." As he commenced eading the sentence, his composure strengthened, his voice . was clear and distinct until the order fixing the death penalty and date of execution was reached, when his reading became labored, his voice husky and his mannerfcervous, and it was with the greatest emotion that he performed the duty he had been delegated by his associates to per form. Having voiced the decision of the court in the most celebrated case it has ever been called upon to decide justice who made announce ment at once left the bench and re tired to his room.

The Wilmington Review of the 2th says : The receipts of cotton at this port to-day foot up 1,309 bales, against . ro7 bales for corre ponding date last year. The Marion Index says ; General credence is given the rumor that if JNorth Carolina ports do not hold out greater inducements the Cape Fear and Yadkin Valley Railroad Company are thinking seriously ot extending their lines South from LSurnnettsviIle to a point about ten miles below. This would give the road an outlet to Charleston, S. C. The Durham Recorder says The Oxford and Clarksville Road, says that no convict labor will be em- ployed in this construction.
