"There is u growing feeling in the

It was very disagreeable walking

Every Jew on this day endeavors to be

We will thank Supt. McBee for in

Transfer of Business.
Mr. R. R. Porter has sold his mil
linery establishment on North
Main street to Mr. John N. Ramsey,
who will continue the business at
th? same stand. Mr. Porter's en

The Tennessee Election.
Tennessee votes tQr-day on the
prohibition amendment. In SDeak
ing of the canvass a dispatch says :
'In East Tennessee the campaign
has been bitter, especially among
the ministers, ome of them have
left their pulpits aad taken the
stump, devoting nearly all of their
time to campaign work. There has
not been so much interest manifest
ed in the central and western por
lions of th- State- The liquor men
are confident of a big victory while
the leading advocates of prohibition
say that, it they do not succeed,
they will at least get the question
squarely before the people, and they
will try it again at some future time.

leading prohibitionists in the btate

while trretniig are confident of de

Frosted Tobacco.
Frost damaged the tobacco crop
about in spots. Ohio suffered . but
very little, while Kentucky was very
seriously damaged, involving about
half the crop in large areas. A, Pe
tersburg dispatch of Tuesday says:
"Intelligence is received that frost
in adjacent counties did considera
ble damage to the tobacco crop, one
half of which is now in the field.
On the river and creek bottoms the
damage was greatest. Telegrams
received from various parts of North
Carolina state that the tooacco has
been badly injured by the frost. I
Reports from Tennessee are to
the effect that the tobacco in some
sections ot that State has suffered
severely from the frost. Considera
ble uneasiness is felt here among
the tobacconists as to the injury
done to the tobacco by " the frost.
It is feared, however, that the crop
will fall far short of what was an
ticipated before the frost appeared.
Especial Attention

BDITOE'S CORRESPONDENCE.
WKBSTfen,' Sept 26th; 1837.
Bather than wait for the mid-day mail
staje, I walked up from Webster potion
this morning, a distance of a little more
than three miles, not much of a walk in
distance, and a beautiful one in practice.
The road runs along the banks of the
Tuckasegee, now a perfectly clear stream,
varying ia character very much, some
times flowing, sluggishly along with mo
tion scarcely sufficient to bear away the
dead autumn leaves that here and there
fleck its placid surface, then again spread
in!; out into broad rippling sheets and
expanding into a width of a hundred
and fifty yards, -then contracting aa it is
compressed between opposing mountain
projections, tearing its way over rock and
ledge, and hurrying'on with a fury that
harmonizes harshly with a genera!' pla
cidity. Here and there are isl tnds
makes picturesque diversity, and the
whole walk was one of charging pictures
and pleasing novelties.
The road from the station to the Court
House is undergoing change, and soon
will run-close to tLe stream. At present
there are places where it leaves it and
climbs rather steenly closer to the moun
tains than to the river.
Approaching Webs'er, the most prom
inent object is the new Court House, a
very welcome sight it is with the old one
still in memory with its cracked walls, its
crumbling floors, and its superlatively
uncomfortable appointments; and then
when it became absolutely untenable,
the wretched substitutes adopted in
which justice was administered under
such difficulties' that the wondjrisnow
that the justly irritated tem - r of jurors
did not lead to more bloody erdicts and
more harsh conclusions. Ine contrary
seemed to have been the result, and in
dulgence seemed to have been given to
offenders, because the jurors themselyes
were so severely punished, and they em
braced criminals in a common sympathy.
The new Court House externally is
really an elegant building, slightly cruci
form in structure, each arm of the cross
terminated by an elegantly corniced
gable, and the South end terminated by
a massive tower surmounted by a hand
some belfry. The general effect is harm
onious and very pleasing. The interior
arrangement of the first floor comprise
all the convenience of good large office
rooms for the officials. A double flight
of stairs leads to a vestibule abore.j:rom
which access is had to two office rooms,
and also to the court room. This is a
handsome well finished room, with seats
for tho spectators, an ample bar, and a
judge's bench, judiciously raised to a
reasonable height above the bar ana
audience. In the rear are retiring rooms
for the jury, with stair cases leading to
the passages below. On examination we
think these rooms might have been dis
pensed witn, using tor the same purpose
room sbelow. and the space occupied by
them given to the court room which is
smaller than the wants of the public
reauire. It is a fault, a prominent one
and the only one I can detect in the
building, it is not the fault of the arch
itect who has done his work admirably
well, and it is not a fault that will always
be recognized. But there will arise
cases of such interest that will far over
crowd existing capacity: and besides the
population of the Ciuaty is steadily, if
not rapidly lnereasing. JtJut it were un
gracious to complain in the face of sucl;

only to make an announcement.
The announcement was that all
members of the committee on resos

with the platform and is generally

The platform was then read as
follows: The unnecessary federal

taxation is unjust taxation. There

$153,950 were 4i per cents., and
899,950 4 per cents. Acting Secre
tary Thompson said this afternoon
that he could only account for the
smallness of offerings on the theory
that holders of bonds did not care
to convert them into money. It
might however, he added, be re
garded as a healthy sign as tending
to ;show that $20,000,000 recently
put upon themarket by operations
of the department had averted the
possibuitie- of -a -p&me af.d-aaa
brought about a feeling 01 greater
confidence and Security. Less than
$5,000,000 is needed, he said, to
meet the sinking fund requirement
of the $14,000,000, and there are
still 9 days within which to obtain
that amount 'according to terms of
circular. Applications for the pre
payment of interest were received
to-day on bonds amounting to
$174,050, making a total to date
$95,059,650.

report on cotton futures says: - A few
remaining shorts were fonnd on Septem

efforts to cover gave this month a steady
tone. .Aside from that the market was
rather tame and the bu.k of business
took place at slightly lower ranee, with
evidence at times of quite a bearish
inclination under continuation of full
receipts and an absence of assisting
advices from abroad. As the day pro

"All Men are Liars,"
said David of old. He was probably
prompted to make the above remark after
trying some unreliable catarrh remedy.
Had he been permitted to live until the
present day, and tried Dr. Sage's Remedy,
be might have had a better opinion of
mnnkind. We claim that no case of
catarrh can withstand the magic effects of
this wonderful medicine. One trial of it
will convince you of its efficacy. By drug
