Those of our young men who spent Thanksgiving day in search of game report good success. Yesterday was another remarka bly quiet day, most people, like Tom Hood, on such occasions, being "too full utterance." The first musicale for this session was hold in the parlora of the new Female college building last even ing. There were quite a good many friend of the institution present and ail enjoyed the occasion very much indeed. Tho music by the young ladies of the col ege was e? pecially good. Dr. J. A. Watson was recently called to Hot Springs to visit the wife of the physician in charge of the hotel. Dr. M. Gahan. This is evidence of the confidence repossd in this gentleman, and also of the professional esteem in which the Fac ulty ot Asheville is he.d abroad, we recently mentioned that Dr. Rattle had been sent for to see a patient in Colorado to which distant State he has gona. The Lynchbur Advance says: "Arch Telley, the veteran bear hunter, now upwards of seventy years of age, who has killed more than two hundred bears, went out on the mountain of Bedford, near Hunting Creek, one day last week and killed two." Can Wid Medford show such a record '? And can tbe Chambers and the Hemphills oyer hope. to catch up ? Let us hear from Wid. The fire at Hickory makes a dis tressing gap in the very centre of that thriving town. Two hotels, two store?, and several dwellings destroyed are matters of regret to that town and people. But the ho tels were built when Hickory was young. ThejT had their day; and perhaps it will soon come to pass that their destruction will eventu ally prove a bleesing. Individual lossss are always to lie deplored, but there are few towns which are not ultimately benefitted by afire, how ever calamitous it may have ap peared at the time. And such, we hope, will be the cose with Hickory. Tin: Vcarteuly Mketing, A I v fa vtrville. will be held to day and tomorrow, and will be laigely attended. The Rev. C. T.

Uncle Pleas Touched Up. Yesterday Capt. J. K. Hoyt, of Turnpike, brought us an onion of this years growth from the seed which puts Uncle Pleas on his met tie. It is of the Mammoth Pompeii variety, is five inches in di ameter, and weighs one pound. The seed of Capt. II's onion crop was sown in May, and the specimen brought us is a fair representative of the whole. Capt. Hoyt also biought us a sam ple of ensilage of which he makes large and profitable use. He uses corn stalks and the vine of the Whipporwill pea as the foundation of his supply. Especial Attention Is invited to the large array of popular remedies to be found at Pelbam's Phar macy, near the post office. It is a rule with" this house to keep any thing that ia wanted in the drug line, provided it has any merits.

I Tor the Asheville Cmns, BIG JIM. I write this obituary in memory ef Mr. James Presley who departed this life, Monday the 13th day of November. To some of the inhabitants of Asheville, and to a ereat manv in its vicinity. Big Jim as he was commonly called, has long been an object of interest, while the exemplary patience and cheerfulness he displayed under great sunenng enaeared him to all bv whom he was surrounded. One fine Spring morning thirty-three years ago, Jim, then a nne active young man of seventeen, left his father's house to sttend a neighbor's log rolling. Ere noon he was brought beck, bleeding, crushed, a helpless mass of impotent humanity, A log had rolled over him aad all but killed him For months he lay hove ing between life and death aud was only finally snatched fkm the grae. to live what to all ot ers, seemed but living death. cripple, paralyzed, be had from that time, no farther use of his hmb unable to walk, naable to feed himself, unable to wash himself, unable to move hand or foot grown from want ot exercise, to an immense and unwiediy eize, very often unable to lie down of a night, for tkirly-three years, he has eat in his chair, and never murmured or com plained. Think of it ihrough the long summer days wh.-n all the world was busy, either at work or enjoying itself, through tbe still longer winter nights, when all slept but him, Zini sat in his chair. The world saw its changes, its births, its marriage, its sickness, its deaths, its want, its plenty, its joy, its grief, but Jim still sat in his chair. Jim had bis own troubles, he saw death enter his dwelling more than once during those thirty-three years, he knew troubles more than death, he was poor, his friends were poor, he knew what it was to be cold sometimes, hungry, he knew what it was to leel himself a helpless burthen on those so ill able to afford it, he knew wnat it was to suffer periods of execruia ting pain, but he never complained. Al ways happy, always contented, with a smile for the gay, and a tear for those in distress, his life taught a lesson we would all do well to learn. But Jim's chair is vacant now, and Jim has zone home. His last prayer was far more patience, his last words, that ne was almost home. Then his Saviour came for him, and he has crossed the river and there is no more treuble for Jim. No more pain, no more weariness, Jim is walking now, no more hunger, no more thirst, he shall eat of the tree of life and drink of the river that flows by the Throne of God, no more tears, for Gocl ere this has wiped them all awav. Is o more patched and soiled. or faded garments, there have been robes of spotless white awaiting for Jim, and on his fevered throbbing brow is glitter ing, now I think a crown all radiant with jewels of living light 1 oor, hum ble, obscure, unknown, it may be often forgotten, often despised, after a life of unparalled suffering, Jim has gone to his numble grave, but by virtue of bis child like faith in his Redeemer's love, his humility, his patience, his cheerfulness, his resignation, I think he reigns to-day a prince in the adornments ot his L,ord. A. C, Asheville. Thanksgiving Day Was generally observed in Ashe ville, most of the stores being closed, iud there was also a general sus pension of business. There was ser vice in all the churches, with appro priate sermons. Collections were taken up for va rious benevolent institutions. At the Epscopal church the collection was for the Thompson Orphanage at Charlotte, and the sum of $40 was remitted as the result. At the Presbyterian church, the obj'ect was the Thornville, S. C, Orphanage, but we have not learned the amount; nor the amount nor the object at the other churches. Very great gen eral interest was manifested in the Mission Hospital. Th cro was a very large concourse of visitors at the institution during the afternoon, adults and children, aud we believe by this last ail the Sun day Schools in the city were repre sented. All carried their little gifts. Tha elders had sent their offerings; and there was a bountiful accumu lation of flour, beef, hams, turkey, besides cakes, fruits and vegetables. The whole was a generous evidence of public appreciation. We do not know to what extent the day was observed in the coun try. We learn that service was held at Mount Pleasant church on Bea ver Dam creek, and a fine sermon preached by that able and venerable retired divine, Dr. Burnett.

By Ultgraph to the Ashe-rill Citizen. 1 Cincinnati, Noy. 25. A morning paper says it has bee n discovei ed that the late Charles Albert Kebier, at torney, who committed suicide ednesday, was driven to the cieed by the approaching revelation of heavy forgeries committed bv him in the management of estates and of trust funds committed to ms care. The estimate is made that the lia--bilities thus incurred amour. t to about $175,000, while the property left by Kebier will not exceedo $00, 000. The persons most seriously affected are his own firmly and friends. The astonishing revela tion discloses the motive to be noth ing more than to keep up style of luxurious living beyo d his means. The use of trust funds having been begun, continuance become of a parant necessity. An instar.ee is given where $10,000 was invested for a client and all the papers re lsting to it including the mortgage, were forgeries. His friends find the case 60 strange that they readily agree that some forrri of insanity must have led him into the course so far removed from what might have been expected of one with his training and antecedents. Continuation of Herr Most's Trial, fly telegraph to the Aaheville Citizen. New Yokk, Nov. 25 The trial of Herr Most was resumed this momiug. Mr. Howe, in opening the case for the defense, said Most was not on trial, but the freedom ot apeech. He did not believe in Alost's doctrines, but the law gives him the right to denounce his ex; cution as an outrage. Mr. Howe said he would show that thtj man Schwenk was not in the room at 5he time of the meeting, aud that officer Sachs whs not there either. He would show that the imports pub lished of the meeting were not cot rect, and that Most wrote a denial cf the story; and there would be produced on the stand a reporter who had taken notes and written an impartial report. A reporter who knew something of the German and of the French revolution; last of all, Herr Most himself, would be put on the stand to tell his beliefs and disbeliefs. A number who were present would be called and tell what Most s utterances were. It would be shown that when an enthusiast cried '"Whv not to night?" Most raised his hand and 8aid,"No ! patience ; have patience." Fanatic or fool as Most might be, he should not be convicted on trumps! up charge. Adolph Schenck, e he save his name, ol Stapleton, I. I., was the first wit iiea. He waived tne court Bible aside and affirmed. He said he wa a compcsit' r. lie told .Mr. tlum me'.l that If- was not at the Kramer saloon at all the night of the 12th. On cross. examination the witness said he came to the United States in 1S79 and met Most two years and a half ago. I wo years ago he loined the International Workincrnen's Party. The policv of the party was to overturn the Government peace fully if possible, by force if neces sary. 1 he witness was against re bellion. Only a few men could not have a rebellion. "I want the whole people to be with us. I don't be lisve in the destruction of class rule by force. I am familiar with the ioctnnes of the part3'. That is one of their doctrines. The International Workingrnen's Party, to which I belong is led by Most. It is a party of which the Chicago Anarchists were leaders. Anarchy means that the people shall rule, not the govern ment It means that the govern ment shall be done awav with; that there shall be no government, but every shall be free to do what he deire. The laws shall be those of common sciise. Man's only pun ishment is to be himself - his con science will be his punishment. I belorg to the Anarchical wingof the party. There are two wings ; the Socialist wing is the other." Forsst Fires Spreading. I Ry telegraph to the Asheville Citizen. 1 Staunton, Ya., Nov. 25.
