"We saw yesterday a large box be ing well and substantially filled with provisions for the use of a sick and disabled brother. He was a member of the Knights of Labor ; and his brethren kindly remembered his dis tress in the enjoyment of their own abundance. The act was honorable to them and creditable to human nature. Without doubt their own Thanksgiving turkeys will have better flaror, seasoned with the relish of the timelely beneficence. Madison Superior Court, For the trial of civil cases only was held on Monday and Tuesday of this week; adjourning on the afternoon of the last named day. TJub is quick dispatch for an "authorized term of een issued for the arrest of John z: . . a - .i i ;?r;iirt ... v, ...... : t ..: 4 : ? tVO TCCK, MUU LUC UIBIIlUrS JL 11 bar are disposed somewhat to com- plain at the vigorous enforcement of the rules the Judge has adopted. Judge Montgomery acts upon the idea that as a time certain is fixed for the ho'diug of the terms of the courts, counsel, suitors and witnesses, knowing that time have ample oppor tunity for the preparation of cases, and full notice of the time when their presence is required ; and if they are neither ready nor present when their names or cases are called they shall derive no advantage or be en titled tono indulgence for theirdefault. Hardship is worked iu some cases, wi hout doubt; for unforeseen con tingencies arise against which bo pro vision can be made. But in general effect, the course of JucTje Mont gomery is a wise one and promotive of public good. No complaint has been louder nor better founded than the dilatory movements of the courts, going to the extent of a practical de nial of justice, for the previous in dulgence of the bench has authorized counsel to be ready or not as it suited interest or convenience ; suitors to insist or hold back in the procure ment of their right;, also from the same motives of convenience or in terest ; and witnesses to be present or absent as suited them, knowing that ready excuse would be offered and accepted for their delinquency. The result was that when a case got into court it remained there until it was gray, witnesses dead or remoed, counsel changed by death or re tirement ; and the docket continued to be encumbered with old suits; an illustration of which was found in the recent term of the court originating in 1869, in which some of the origi ual parties were dead, witnesses gone. and om one side a total change of counsel. The grievance of delay and accu mulation became so intolerable as to demand relief, which waa given by the creation of Inferior courts in some counties, bv the increase in the number of judges, and by addition to the terms of the eouns. These aids, together with the energies of the judges, particularly the new incum bents, have rapidly reduced tne dockets to manageable shape, and made the procurement of justice and the ends of litigation possible. We hope the bar and the people will both speedily adjust themselves to an order of things which we hope and believe is not confined to the administration of justice. It is a renovation desirable ; and this, in connection with the good order en forced in the curt room, is steadily restoring the judiciary to the respect which it once unquestionably com manded. The Water Works. Yesterday afternoon we had occu lar demonstration of the value of our water supply. The water from the Swannanoa having filled the standpipe the water has been let into mains: "and in the alternoon the fire company attached a hose pipe to the plug in trontot the court house. .Nozzles ot dinerent diamc ters were used.

He then went to a cheaper house, and last night his room was locked on him and he slept on the floor in the hall. He was observed by- a man whom he had befriended iu his better days and has been taken to the Muns House. Mr. Jones is a mental wreck.
