AUGUSTA, GBEE3TVII.I.E A KNOX-
VILLE TO SEND DELEGATES,
Last night at the regular meeting of
the Board of Aldermen, Capt- Atkinson
asked attention to and action concerning
the proposed grand barbecue to be held
in Asheville on the 24th, in behalf of
railroad subscription. After hearing
Capt. AUfinson the Board of Aldermen
unanimously adopted the following : .
Whereas, A mass meeting of the citi
zens of Buncombe is called to assemble
in the city of Asheville on tb 24tb.Hd&y
of September -to adept waitiCble"- resolu
tions petitioning the county commission
era of said county . of Buncombe to sub'

they will authorize the issue of $100,000
in 6 nercent. bonds as subscriptions to
the capital stock of each of four lines of
ra'Iroads named in certain ' resolutions
lately adopted in a meeting held by the
citizens of Asheville; and
Whehkas, At that meeting it was re
solved to add to the interest and public
comfort of the citizenscalled to assemble
in Asheville on the 24thiin6t. by provid
ing a public dinner or barbecue at which
all who are interested are expected to be
present :
Resolved, That we, the Mayor and Al

of the cities of Augueta, Greenville, and
Knoxville, and through them to the citi

represent; and that, in all events, the
said Mayors and municipal authorities
be respectfully invited to send delega
tions of representative citizens of their
respective communities to be present at
the public dinner to be given in this
city on the 24th inst.
Resolved, That the hospitalities of the

egations by the municipal authorities of
the said city of Asheville,
Resolved, That a copy of these resolu

Haywood Couurr Court Week Good
Crops New Raileoad.
We spent several days at Haywood
court this week. Saw a number of the
goodly people of this goodly county, and
found them in better spirits oyer fine
prospects of business improvement than
we have seen them in some time.
Judze Monteoinerv conducted and din-
patched boxncES-ln his yystematlc ana - i
highly ajitieiactory manner. , All the or-
fleers were, on duty and efficient No
case of general public interest occupied
the time of the court Haywood does
not afford many criminals of the baser
sort.
From every section of the county we
heard crops were the best for years, in
quantity and quality, and our neighbors
will have enough and much to spare as
the result of their vear's labors. The
tobacco crop, while not up to the yield of
last yeir in quantity, is Jar superior to it
in quality, and promises well.
The proposition .to construct the Car
olina, Knoxville and Western Railroad
throughout that county, crossing from
Transylvania county over the Pink Beds
to the head waters of Pigeon River,
thence down that river and through its
splendid valley, lo Knoxville, is attract
ing the interest of the people of the
whole county. The people fiave been
asked to vote a subscription of $100,000
to this road, and the election has been
ordered for the 13th of October. We saw,
to our surprise, some opposition to yoting
the subscription, but believe the senti
ment of the country to be very largely in
favor of it, as it certainly ought to be.
We will suggest to our friends in Hay
wood, however, that in these times a
people who expect to be helped must do
something to help themselves. If a rail
road is worth having, it certainly ought
to be worth the giving something to
obtain it. If the people do not want an
other railroad, they can 6ay so by their
votes. They need not expect other coun
ties to be so indifferent to such-opportunities.
Whichever countvn get this
road can well afford to trWe the $100,000
for it. It wocld b- worth more to the
county in a fw years than that amount
would bf-ortl1 without the road in a
fifne. Seriously, this road is a prize
Loo he struggled for, and the county eettinz
it may well congratulate themselves.
But to get, and get it promptly, the peo
ple themselves must do something to
help its construction, and the amount
asked is certainly reasonable. Let us all
be up and doing, and avail ourselves of
epportonities. which while promising so
mucu, win cobo ub comparatively so nuie.

Fatal Fire in New Orleans.
By telegraph to the Asheville Citizen.
New Orleans, Sept. 16. 12:30
o'clock. This morning an explo
sion occurred at the corner of Eng
lish and Dauphine streets, aDd a
moment later the entire building
was on fire- and all escape from
the upper stories in which the Mess
sina family resided was cut off.
Fire must have been burning some
time before the explosion which
was doubtless caused by the ig
nition ol powder which Messina
kept for sale. When the firemen
reached the scene, the voices of
Messina and family could be heard
mingled with the roaring and crack
ing of the flames, crying for help.
Every effort of the firemen to rescue
unfortunate inmates of the burning
building failed, and the entire fam
ily consisting of Messina, his wife
and their four little children, were
burned to death.

PnVJ.W Sept. 16 Du
ring the past two days there have ar
rived in the city by the various rail
road lines nearly lour hundred
thousand people, and to this must
be added the vast number who have
reached the city by other means
than by railroad. There are at
least half a million of strangers
within the city toaday, and even
with this throng in addition to the
million of Jinhabitants, this
page of history made 3resterday
passed away with not a single acci
dent of a eerious nature. Every
body was good natured, and fors
bearing and had but one object in
their minds; the peaceful and
happy celebration of the greatest
event of civilized times. The enor
mous size of some of displays in
yesterday's pageant prevented them
from occupying any other street
than Broad; but to days dembnstra
tion being purely military. The
display passed through all prom
inent streets, thus giving a greater
number of people an opportunity
of viewing display than were allow
ed yesterday by reason of the
limited space afforded them.
' When the procession had reached
the exchange and the assemblage
had come to something like order,
President Cleveland was introduced
and said :
"I am glad I hava the opportuni
ty to meet so large a representation
of the business men of Philadelphia,
It is well that we should not entire
ly forget in the midst of our centen
nial jubliee that the aim and pur
pose of good government tend after
all to the adyancement of the mate
rial interests of people and the in
crease of thi r interest ftndcommerce.
The thought has sometimes occurred
to me that in the hurrv and rush of
business there might well be in
fused a little more patriotism than
we are wont to see, and a little
more recognition of the fact that
wholesome political sentiment is
closely related, not only to the germ
eral good, but to the general success
of business. Of course our citizens,
engaged in business are quick to sea
the bearing of any policy which the
government may adopt, as it affects
their personal success and their ac
cumulation. But I would like to j
see that broad and public sentiment
among them which can see beyond
their peculiar personal interests' and
which can recognize that the a4
vancement of the entire country is
the object ior which they may well
striv, . even . some times to the
diminution of their constantly in
creasing profits. Must we alwayB
look for the: political . opinions of
our business men, principally where
they suppose their immediate! per
cuniary advantage ia bound? I knojf
how vain it is to hope' for' the-exemption
of selfish motive in. 'all
affairs of life. But I am ; reminded
that we sdebrate o-day a triumph
over selfishness.": Will any' one' say
that, t.hft concessions of this ..consti
tution were not well made, or that
we are not to-day in the full enjoy
ment ol the blessings resulting from
due regard for all conflicting inter
ests represented by the dinerent
States which were united a hundred
years ago. I believe the complete
benefits promised to the people by
our form of government can only be
secured by the exercise of the same
spirit of toleration for each other's
rights and interests in which it had
its birth. Thi3 spirit will prevail
when the business men of the coun
try cultivate political thought, when
they cease to eschew participation
in political action, and when such
thought and action are guided by
better motives than purely selfish
and exclusive benefit.
I am of the opinion that there is
no place in the country where such
condition can be so properly and
successfully maintaihm here among

The President arrived at the re
viewing stands at 11 o'clock escorted
by the first, city troop of cavalry
and a throng of ' distinguished
guests. Shortly after 11 o'clock Mr3.
Cleveland appeared on the balcony
of Lafayette Hotel followed by pri
vate Secretary Lamont and wife and
two or three guests. Mrs. Cleveland
received enthusiastic applause as
she appeared in front of the balcon'.
At 11:U Ueneral Philip bheidan,
mounted on a handsome sorrel
came up the street at the head of a
vast cavalcade ot the military pre-
ceeded by a squad of mounted re
serves. As he passed the reviewing
stand the President arose and it was
then one continuous sound of hur
rahs. Troops and all marched with
headserect and eyes looking straight
ahead more like graven figures than
moving humanity. General Sheri
dan notwithstanding the plaudits
of the multiude rode erect look
ing neither to the right or ieft.
As each'platoonpassed the President
their commander gracefully raised
their hats and saluted him, receiv
ing in return a bow of recognition
from the commander in chief of all
the troops. After passing the stand
and almost in front of Mrs Cleve
land's balcony the cavalrymen gave
marvellous exhibitions of their skill
in drill exercises which were ap
plauded to the echo. Behind Gov.
Beaver came over ten thousand
Pennsylvania militia who marched
and performed different evolutions.
Some of them were veterans and
carried flags that had been with
them throughout the late war. The
entire parade was the most success
ful ever sean ia -modern times and
it would seem that the height of
military perfection had been reacha
ed by the. troops of the various
States. It would indeed be hard to
imagine anything more inspiring
than thirty thousand uniformed
militia all of whom were headed by
regimental bands. Commanders of
each turned face about as they
reached the Presidient's stand and
with cheers of countless thousands
and Usweet strains of music the
throngs of people were completely
enraptured. The end of the parade
was occupied by the Grand Army
of the Republic and as as each post
passed in front of the strand its
commander gave a salute to the
President and was recognized. Post
2 of this city carried in the centre
of its cotumn twenty-one of the
flags captured by them during the
war. They were a mass of tattered
and torn colors but they were
honored with cheers whose
"echo seemed to never die." Dur
ing the time they were passing the
President remained standing with
his head uncovered and answered
each salute as it was given; Ordere
had previously been issued by the
department commander of the G.
A. R. that only post commanders
should salute, men in line to keep
faciDg ahead. This was not strictly
adhered to however and many of
those of rank and me passed by the
stand with uncovered heads and
when Garfield post No. 4, of New
York, came up the front ranks
turned face about and sent a rouso
ing cheer for the Chief Magistrate,
which he graciously acknowledged.
Their cheer was taken up by the
crowd and carried to the echo.

Tricks of Summer Boarders.
There is no end to the mean and

do nothing but scheme how they
can get more than they pay for. If
