Atkins, the town builder of Western North Carolina who is doing eood work at the new t"wn of Xeno, Mc Dowell county, is in the city for a few days. He says McDowell is growing rapidly in population and enterprise. The types made us say that the memo rable snow of last winter began on the 14th. We wrote the 4th. The storm began on Friday night the 4th, continu ing with interruptions through Sunday into Monday morning, its greatest viol ence being through Sunday night until its cassation about 11 o'clock Monday morning. We had a yisit j-esterday morning from Dr. Schenck, physician in charge at tba Red Marblo Gap Quarters. He say tne work: up tiie moutn oi tue tunnel is so lar advanced that next week the quarters will be removed to a new camp on the top of the level t J be known as Camp Kobinson in honor of the Hon. Jamrs L. Kobinson hose e. v Ces were so conspicuous in the legislation aflecting the extension of the road to Murphy. Dr. hchpnek says the work on the tunnel will be prosecuted (unless subse quent changes in plan are made) and that it is intimated that it will be com plete! in eighteen months. Dr. Battle has just returned from a trip to Colorado where he was summon ed to attend and convey to Ashevilie Mrs. Barrett of New York City who was last winter his patient, and a gneet at the Battery Park Hotel. Mrs. Barrett is the daughter of Hon. A. Foster Higius, member of the Connecticut Legislature. Mrs. Barrett feteidily improved last v. in ter during her sojourn in Ashevilie, hut her family, thinking a change might brn; ii. i r, in the spring removed her'to Colorado. In thi3 they were disappoint ed; hence their return to Ashevilie. Tha Doctor on his arrival at Colorado found th party, consisting of Mr.- and Mrs. Barrett and their three children, Mr. and Mrs. Higgins and Mrs. Wright awaiting his arrival, and eajer for a 6tart to Ashevilie. He found Mr. Barrett's youner son ill, but started on the return reluctantly. Th journey had hardly commenced before his fears were realiz ed, and the illness of Master Barrett developed into diphtheria, and the little fellow died at Kansas City. As soon ts the Doctor became convinced that the esse was diphtheria, he quarantined the body and none of the Lv Miry saw him afterward. He 6e; crtedtb party, bring ing Mrs. Barrett and her father and mother in a special car with himself, and sanding the remainder of the family by another route. The child died in" the saloon of the special car which was then sealed and fumigated, and the bedding burned. The remains of the boy were ent to New York. The portion ofth tamily who came ia the special car ar-s at present at ti:e Hospital ia this city, but will take apartments at the Batt'ry Park after a proper time in quarantine. The balance of the paity have not yet reach ed the city and iii not for a day or two It is altogether & tad case and the hereaved family have the heartfelt sym pathy of many friends, both here and at home. A Suggestion. Some kteps should be taken to require parties to keep off the street down which lire engines have to go to reac- a fire. Thursday a :iuii:bcr of buggies were rushed upon the avenue greatly to the inconvenience of tho trucks, while a tuur-horso wagon took the middle of the avenue and kept it greatly to the annoy ance and possible danger to the horses attached lo the hose reel.

Is Bro. Caldwell sheltering himself be hind this law ? Mr. J. C. Watkins, of Webster Station i3 ia the city, at the Grand Central. He gives us several items ot interest about his growing place.

Yesterday Mr. H. M. Ray, a ten ant of Mr. C.

The sae was the proceeds of two acres, minus one batn de stroved by frost. Besides this Mr. Ray raised on 16 acres 700 bushels of corn, 117 bush els of wheat and 22 stacks of hay. Two years ago, when he took pos session of the farm, it was in bushes, and generally in bad order. Again we soy Mr. Kay is a good farmer.

This is extraordinary, and we be lieve the highest average for so much to bacco yet obtained. A Distinguished Ashbvillian Abroad. The Knoxville Journal av : '"Charley Cummins is a common looking colored boy, eleven years of age. who ha been in the citv tome time. He came from Aeheville", N. C. and recently has shown wonderful intellect. He speak a fluent ly as a college professor and is a natural born poet. 'The boy ia a loafer on the treeta."

A Gkntlbmax and a Scholar. We make an extract, found below from a letter received from a gentleman in a wes tern State, who had permitted himself un wittingly to get into arrears. It illustrate the point we have been making, that the interest taken by subscribers in meeting their subscription engagements will not only lighten our anxieties, and enable us to meet our engagements, but give the ability and also the spirit to meet both our own wishes and those of our patrons as connected with improvement of our paper. As it is, very many subscrib ers are laggard, indifferent or reluctant, satisfied that they "patronize" our paper by having their honored names inscri bed on eur books. Very many names have graced our books for year without being graced by corresponding credit; and the presentation or transmission of an account has an angry response at the indignity of being dunned. We shall not persist in our indulgent course any long er. Business is business; the newspaper business is as real a one as that of the mer chant. No one condemns him for refus ing indiscriminate or indefinite credit Yet that is claimed of tbe journalist. Our distant subscriber, delaying through no lault oi his, appreciates the situation, remits as soon as notified of the default. and says : "1 do not like a paper on time: and en closed you will find amount due, and for six months in advance before which time I will renew. I know how hard you have labored, and how you have devoted your energies to build up Ashe vilie and improve western ftorth Caro Una and know you cannot continue to do t on credit. If you do failure is only a question of time. Any man who cannot pay one subscription in advance cannot pay after it has accumulated two or three year and does sot deserve having your paper to read." Died, In this city, on the 23rd of No vember, Mrs. Elizabeth, wile of Mf. E. B. Mears, after an illness of two weeks of pneumonia. She was 75 years of age. She leaves a husband and six children. Her remains were interred in Riverside Cemetery. The Recent Fire. By an oversight an account of the fire of Thursday afternoon, prepared for y esterdays issue, was overlooked, and did not appear. It will be only necessary to say now, that it broke out. about 5 o'clock under the roof oi Mr. J. H. Carter's large brick dwelling on Grove street, and by the time the fare departeuoent reach ed the spot, the flames seemed to have gained such headway as to defy arrest. But three streams from the all powerful current supplied by the city water works soon had the mastery : an 1 the damaee "bv fire was confined to the roof. The copious flooding damaged the fur niture that remained in the house. That vthich was taken out suffered as muca by removal as it would have done by fire. Ihe house was occupied b Mrs. K. S. Alexander, and the furniture in use was hers. She had some in- urjinct. Mr. Carter had about 1,000 worth of furnitnre stored in the garret rooms, which was ruined either by fire or water. Mr. Carter' had an insurance of $5,000 on the house and of $1,000 on the furniture stored. The dam age to the house is very:, great; for though saved from destruction the effects of fire and water .tiro seen all through it, and the damf.geican safe ly be estimated at least $3,000.

(By Ulefraph to the Ashevilie Citizen ) Louisville, Dec. 2. News was received i i this city at 2:30 this morning of ths partial destruction of Eminence, Ky., by fire. The flames were still raging at the hour of going to press. About one third of the business portion of the place is being consumed. No chance of checking the conflagration existed, the only hope being that the wind might not carry the flames beyond the blocir which was burning. The fire began in Duncan's jewelry store, and was under good headway before discovered. The town was alarmed, snd all the citi zens turned out. and every possible endeavor was made to confine the flames to the jeweliy t're, but to no avail. The wind was blowing hard and the flames were communicated to Miller s grocery, then to the Town Hall, Moody & Proctor's drugstore, Marr & Brewer's lumber and coal yard, O'Connell's butcher shop, and a large carriage factory. All except the latter were completely destroyed and the flames were rapidly con suming it at the last accounts, with manj' other places in immediate danger. There were but little hopes that the flames could be checked before the entira row of business houses would be destroyed. No es timate of the loss can vet be -jiven. Paris Quiet.

By telegraph to tht AshevllIs.Citizun.l Washington, Dec. 2. A caucus of Democratic Senators was held to day to which an informal report of tbe caucus committee was submitted respecting the admission of Senators Turpie, of Indiana, and Fauikner, of West Virginia. Th-j matter was discussed at considerable length, but as several members of the cau cus were absent, no lino of action was sketched, and further discu Bion of ti e subject was put ovei un til to-morrow at 12Vlock, lo which hour the caucus udjourned. Tl Caucus is confronted wilh d mbt as towhat course the Republicans pro posed to pursue; and the commit tee will in the meantime attempt to see if anything can be lenrned on the subject. Members of the Dem ocratic caucus say their party is firm in the conviction that the two Sena tois named should he sworn in when other new Senators are; and they are as yt t unaware of any purpose on the part of the Republicans to prevent it. It osnnot bo learned that tho Republicans have consid ered the subject except as individ ual and it is certain that no line of action has been mapped out.
