About thirty persons from Wayncsville came in last evening and joined a party from this city, and the company left last night for the Atlanta Exposition. The tobacco crop has very near all been cut and cured, and the farmers have been quite successful in getting the leaf a bright color. Rev. W. R.

Index wants a copy of every daily, weekly and monthly newspaper published in North Carolina for exhibition at the Murphreesboro fair. We Hope All Will be There. The Raleigh News-Observer says : "North Carolina should come in force to its own special harvest home, the State fair ; and the gentle wife and mother, who needs a change of air and scene ; the fair daughter, who would enjoy a peep into the world ; the sturdy son, who has helped to make the crop and who deserves a holiday, should not be left behind. Let all come who can do so and let us have a ioyou3 festival at the exl of this mnt fruit ful yeur." No Special Rates. The people of Western Carolina hav cause for just indignation at the authori ties of the Richmond & Danville road for its refusal to give special rates to those wishing to visit Asheville on Friday.Jthe occasion of the visit of President Cleve land. We had the same right to expect such rates as are extended to other places under similar circumstances, and so sure were even the local managers of the road here that such would be accorded that the statement was made that such would be done, and it has been generally pub lished throughout the entire section, and we have received notice from almost ev ery section that a very large crowd would take advantage of the special rates and come to Asheville and unite in showing resi.ect to the President. The local offi cers were confident special rates woald be given ; and then an eiiort was made to haye a special train on the Murphy lme.couiing in early in, the morning and returning in the evening, thusaccommo ting hundreds and even thousands, as we are informed, who would then come. Yesterday, however, the authorities at Richmond notified the officers here that not only could no special train be run. but no special rates would be given over the roads, on the regular trains. While we will have a veiy large crowd here anyway, this refusal on the part of the managers at Richmond will prevent hundreds, even thousands, from coming who would otherwise have done so. Iu view of the usual conduct of rail roads on such occasions, this action on the part of the Richmond managers of the Western North Carolina Road is linexph- cablc, unpardonable, and outrageous. The local officers here were earnestly anxious to do all that could be done to contribute, as far as the railroad could, to the success and pleasures of the occasion, a big occasion for this section and the railroad as well. But they, like the people of this section, ii .ve to bow to a great power wim headquartprs in another section, and from I'-is' poi .'c fiat .is iyntif . .J . viJhinp' I list ow -c fiat J isfnc ... . ivrt 1 uarp curves on. inis Port; r .

The conduct of the manager in this instance can only be characterized as an unpardonable outrage and indignity. . ATTENTION ! Mounted Escort to the Presi dent. All civic societies, orders and clubs ; all squads and companies of horsemen from the country; and all other mounted men, who will compose the escort to the President of the United States on his approaching visit to Asheville, are requested to report to the undersigned at the Fair Grounds, near the Depot, on Friday morning of this week at eight o'clock, when each will be assigned a place in the line. The men of Buncombe countv, as they arrive on the grounds, will be formed into divisions by townships ; men from other counties will be or ganized in separate divisions. To each division a marshal will be as signed as commandant for the parade. A flap- inscribed with the name of the organization will be borne at the head of each division. Men are urged to be prompt in reaching the grounds, as there can be no delay in the moving of the procession. The list of Marshals appointed, the order of the procession and the line of march will be announced to-morrow. Johnstone Joxes, Chief Marshal of the Escort. Married.

Accident on the W. N. C. Road A Young Man Seriously Hurt. Horrible railroad accidents have been so frequently reported from every section of the country that we were congratulating our section and our local railroad managers upon their freedom from anything of the kicd. We have an accident to re port, however, which occutred Sun day night about 9 o'clock at Ivy, nine miles below Marshall. The regular passenger train from Morristown had just crossed the bridge at that point, and was consequently; and fortunately run -ning very slowly. There are man v soarp curves on. this port - scarcely crossed iSJfe bridge when the dowu freight met it .rather uncere moniously, certainly unexpectedly, resulting in damage to the engines, and -eriously wounding fireman Eddie Harding of the passenger train. Mr. Harding was taken to a house near by, medical assistance summoned, and upon examination it wus found his injury was so seri ous that amputation was necessary, and his left leg, bel iw the knee was taken off. He is the son of our friend Maj. William Harding, of Morganton. lhe pas?enger engine was not badly damaged, but the freight engine, with one or more .of the cars, were. C;tpt. Nicholas was conductor of the passenger train, and Capt. Kirkhmd conductor of the freight. We are informed that the passenger train wa.-i on time, and therefore en tilled to the road ; if so th i:;tme fir tlii.? rests with the movviiivnts ot Hit; freight train, but whether it attaches to the conductor or other officers we could not ascer tain. It rests somewhere, certainly, for there must be blame when trains are out of time and collisions occur. There was no other injury save that reported. Mr. and Mrs. Hard ing, father and mother of Mr. Eddie Harding, passed down the road yes terday to where the young man is. Last evening he was doing as well as could be expected.

The Shakes peare Memorial Fountain, presented by Mr. G. W. Childs, of Philadel phia, to the town of Stratford upon Avon, was dedicated with imposing ceremonies to-day. The early trains brought large numbers of distin guished persons to attend the dedi cation. The weather was fine. There was an immense crowd in at tendance, and much enthusiasm was manifested.

Mr. Henry Irving made the dedication speech. He said he Jadniired Mr. Mr. Childs' public spirit and energy, which were worthy of Philadelphia. His ueuerous deeds were widely known, and he was greatly respect ed. The President in Nashville. By Telegraph to the Asheville Citizen, Nashville, Texn., October 17. Nashville has something of the ap pearance of a city in the throes of an exciting national convention. Middle Tennessee claims the Presi dent for its own for a brief half clay, and has sent its representatives in hundreds from all quarters to do the honors of an entertainment. The streets of the city are crowded as they never were before since the days of "Pap" Thomas' occupancy, and are decorated from cellar to Jcrestjin the richest conceivable s not strange mat, shouid have imag ined the Confederate flag among the odd devices by the way, for no possible combination of national colors seemed to be missing ; yet a search by responsible authorities has failed to bring to light anything to which the most devoted loyalist could object. Mammoth pictures in every gra3e of artistic excellence pan the thoroughfares or cover the fro at s of prominent Tjuildings, .ind the banners nominating the guest of the day for the second term are thick as blackberries. The President and all his party at Relic Meade were early astir this morning, and after a leisurely break taut made their wajr to the pictur esque little railroad station upon the place, and were waiting with Gen. Jackson their host, who wore the badges and regalia of the Grand Marshal of the day. When the special train backed up from Nash ville Mrs. Vilas, reported an inva lid" of yesterday, camo aboard smil ing pleasantly, and with all the oth ers declared themselves as well as usual. A short run of 15 or 20 minutes brought the train to the Fair Grounds in the outskirts of the city where passengers landed amid the pomp and ceremony of the day's re ception. The "Governor and his guard, mounted and brilliantly uniformed, and the corps of mar shals, were in attendance. The guests were placed in carriages and driven within the Fair Grounds en closure and to the handsome club house of the Association, where members of the committees and others connected with the reception ceremonial forces hastened to the President. At 9 :45 the procession formed and marched thiough the city to the music of the Presidential salute of artillery. Tne route lay through the fine grounds of the Vanberbilt University. Tho pupils of the insti tution were drawn up in front of the University buuding, xod as the President'8 carriage cause up they received him with cheers, in ac knowledgement of which he raised his hat and bowed. Chancellor Garland addressed the President, expressing the pleasure it gave to all connected with the Institution to welcome him. The students wai ved their hats and cheered again, and the march was resumed. As it proceeded several divisions of the procession, consisting of the milita ry and civic organization, benevo lent orders, btate, county and mu nicipal authorities and city schools were passed in review, and fell into their places behind. The principal streets of the city wera traversed, the populace of all grades and conditions being out on the sidewalks. When the Maxwell house was reached Mrs. Cleveland and her escort alighted and en tered the house, in whose fpacious and beautifully adorned panrs she had a reception to the ladies of Nashville. The President tuid pro cession made its way to the capital, where, upon a stand erected lor the purpose, necessary formalities took place. Governor Taylor's speech was brief but eloquent, an expres sion of .hospitality of this section; and that of Hon. A. S. Collier, edi tor of the Nashville American, em bodied an eloquent tribute to the character of the President. Toioth the President replied as fol ows : (iI regret that my stay to day at the capital of Tennessee must be necessarily so brief as to curtail the coveted opportunity to see more at leisure this handsome city and its h spi table people. Nashville's beautiful location, fertility of its surrounding country and the wealth of mineral resources in its immedi ate neighborhood, gave early prom ise ot its material growth and great ness, lhe variety and perfection ol agricultural products of j'our region, your extensive businw youi supe rior houses, and Jive stock of every description demonstrate that your advantages have not been neglected, while your mineral riches which haye uot full' developed assure ad ditional prosperity in the future. I do not propose to dwell upon the details of your present commanding position among the cities of the South, only mentioning that the ac tivity and enterprise ot j'our people has placed Nashville among the largest centres of trade and mer chandise South of the Ohio river, and in some departments near the head ol all tne cities of the rand. It happened that earlv in your muni cipal life your citizens saw and ap preciated the advantages ( f educa tion, refinement to culture, nd thus as the city grew they became en twined in its growth and spread abroad their branches, until this is generally known as the Ath ens of the South. A number of your Colleges, Universities and in stitutions of learning of evory kind, located in the midst of your active city, where all, whether white or black, may fit themselves for use fulness and best citizenship, matte secure your possession of the title you have earned. It is not an un important fact that your city is headquarters, eo to speak, of Southern Methodism, the home of two of its Bishops and piaee of pub lication and distribution of its liter- atuie. Nashville and her vicinity has furnished two successful candi dates for the Presidency. lo the rave ol Andrew Jackson millions of your countrymen turn with reverent enthusiasm and you are fortunate in numbering a in on g your residents the loved and hon ored widow of our eleventh Presi dent. You have also furnished from your neighborhood, I think five members of the Presidential cab inets, nine United States Sena tors, two Speakers of the IItu; of Representatives and one Justice oi ;. tne united States Supreme court. With such history and 'vith such examples the btate of Tennesst:e and its capital have been brought into illations wiin the operations of Federal gov ernment. :aid may well claim a large share in its glory and benefi cent results.

Coroner Leatherman, after investi gating the Kouts railroad disaster, attributes it to the negligence or carelessness of the railroad authori ties, notably the engineer of the freight train and the train dispatcher who permitted him to run at a high rate of speed a heaver train immed iately behind a passenger train drawn by an engine known to be disabled. The railroad company is censured for allowing this disabled engine to go upon the road.
