As soon as the committee an- pointed Thursday night secures $25,000 subscription to the Co-opei-ative Industrial Association let a meeting of subscribers called, and it that auaojut can bo at once utilized let work be begun at once. If our people will just go to work Asheville will soon have very much additional to be proud of. The entertainment at Battery Park Thursday night was for the benefit of the Hospital, and we are pleased to learn a nice little sum was realized. Aside from the object of the entertainment the 'arge au dience enjoyed a most agreeable performance. We regret a list of the dramatis pertonx has not been fur nished us. Some verj excellent tal ent, however, contributed to the occasion. From the remarks made by Maj. Rollins. Thursday night it is evi dent that more prize and other rooms needed in the tobacco hand ling business are absolutely de manded now. This was not gener ally known before, the public be lieving that individual enterprise had kept pace with the require ments of the trade. We are glad Maj. R. gave the information. Our people can nut their money to no better or more profitable purpose Let arrangements be made at once to erect a building, to cost say S23, 000, to be provided with all neces eary machinery, for a first-class, commodious packing-hous?. stem ery, &c.

Mrs. Merriwether accompanies him as far as Louis ville, Ky., where she will spend a few weeks. One of the committeemen yester day got oyer one thousand dollar subscribed to new factories, another fifty one hundred dollars. If the other thirteen committermen, whom we did not Lear from, did as well, the four hundred thousand dollars wanted w ill soon be secured. We have been informed that upon one lot where some very serious sickness has recently occurred, nun ha3 been permitted to accumulate to that ttegren that it is a surprise that - 1 T sic'ine.-s aid not occur earner, ii matters not in what quarter such may exirt, or who may be afiected thereby, a cose c.f fever caused by such neglect hurts the city as much as if it ail occurred on Main street. It is these Ly wav and backlot places which n-quiru n.ore constant atten tion than our miblic t: .rough fares, and some peonle do not eem to know or eppreeiate when their premises are lilthv. Such as these should be instructed, first by at least one personal, official supervision of a cleaning, and, a fine to follow neglect thereafter. Pkotect the Animals. Is there a society for the pre vention of crueity to animals in our city? If not, we ought to have one in the hands and under the man agement of the ladies. No organi zation of the kind h:i ever amount ed to anything in any country where managed bv men. We there fore hope that one will be organ ized here, and that the usual mis take of putting men at the head of it will not be made. Let us hear from our readers on the subject. A Fixe Bull Calf Coming to Ashe ville a Graceful Gift to Gen. Vaxce. Col. Halbert S. Greenleaf, a gal lant soldier in the U. S. service in the late war, now of Rochester, X. Y. has sent to Gen. Vance a fine Jersey bull call'. The Col. says in his letter: "Please accept the bull calf sent you yesterday, as a slight token o" my regard fjr a certain 'Rebel Brigadier,' the worst of the lot' This calf was sired by "Victor of Saint Helier," and the mother is "Lady Dee" found on page 177 Steveno' Catalogue of Jerseys. Lady Dee's rcord has tested 2olbsof but ter in 4 days. The General will have a lot of Holsteins on his Riverside Farm near Asheville, in the spring. Scrate Youn Side Walks. We invite attention to the fol- lowing city ordinance : Sec. S57: It shall be the duty of all oecupan's f ii.q royed property, and owners of vacant property, in front of which the tide-walks have been paved, to keep such sid- walks clean, ar 1 to do .-nth sweepii g and scrapirg as m y be necergary tore move snow, ice, clay, dirt, and trash therelrom and to render the same passible, comfoitihld and sightly, and the gutter open and free from obstruction as far as such lot ex tends. If any rubbish. u!it. ashes, or any other thing be placed or left, without lawful authority, upon such footway or in such gutters, the oc cupant of such lot shall remove the same ; if twelve h urs elapse after the notice of the Chief of Police, or by any other officer or police, without such removal, the occupant shall he fined live dollars." The police were busy yesterday calling attention to this ordinance; and we notice that much scraping w:is the result, much to the com fort of pedestrians. Let the good work go on. We are requested to state the above ordinance will be rigidly enforced. Have Come.

Her People Have Said it- Greatly to their Credit, and Asheville Shall Grow. Steps taken to Secure Four Hundred Thousand Dollars. The large court house was well filled Thursday nic;ht, in obedience to the call of President Graham' of the Asheville Board of Trade, to consider and devise ways and means to establish other industrial enterprises in Asheville. Not only the members, but the character of the crowd showed that the people are no' only alive but aroused to the beet inter ests of the city and ready to co-operate its up-building. The meeting was composed of those who by their energy, their brains, and their labor build up communities and upon whose shoulders generally the burden of development falls. It was a good mec ing, and, as the result shows a determined meeting. It was a meeting of the Board of Trade and President Graham called the P.oard to order. An iryitation was extended for all who were not already members of the Board to join, and over fifiy did 60. After some business pertaining to the Board was transacted, the sjiecial object of the meeting was taken up, and Presi dent Graham addressed the meeting up on the necessity for the establishment of manufacluring enterprises, of various kirtds in this city if we would have it i e what it should be, pnd what nature designed it to be. Referred to what had been recently accomplished in other places, by the people petting together and forminji a co-0H-iative as ccatinn organizing companies, members to pa say fifty cenis per week per :-l-are of stock. In this way a liity thousand dol lar cotton factory was established; a d now, only a few weeks thereafter, the movement had been so 6uucesbful that the company had determined to double its stock. After many illustrations of the advantages of such movements their safety to the subscribers and benefit to the community, Mr. G.aham said he believed Asheville could easily form such an association and secure subscriptions to a capital stock ot $200 ooo, to be paid in weekly installments of fifty cents per share of stock, the par value of stock to be $100. Capt. McLoud was called upon and heartily endorsed the proposition of Ml . Graha , and was gratified that such a movement was inaugurated. He knew that Asheville had every na-JLural advan tage for large industrial enterprises; he knew that capital was rtady to come and all that was needed was for our peo ple to show they really want this cata'al and it would come rapidly. But very much could he done within ourselves, on this co-operative plan, and he was strongly insympathy with the movement. Capt. Atkinson followed at length in support ot the proposition, and stated that from his own experience with peo ple who desired to come here to unite with us in enterprises he knew what was wanting was for our own people to unite and take hold themselves, and this co operative plan was the most feasible that could be presented. Mr. Thos. C. Stokes, formerly of Philadelphia, was called on and illustra ted the advantages of co-operation to a city by what had been done in Philadel phia. Said the prosperity and growth of that city was due to the co-operation on the basis proposed here, and if our peo ple would so unite five years would find a very diflerent condition of affairs in Asheville, benefitting alike every inter est. He strongly favored the movement. Maj. W. W. Rollins was called on and entered with his accustomed .-zeal and enthusiasm into a discussion of matters of interest to Asheville. He not only sympathized with but would unite in all enterprises wbicti our people wouM undertake; but there was one industry already here, sLrnggling for such recogni tion as would make it what it ought to be, and enable it to do more for Ashe ville and our surrounding people who trade here than anything elee we could undertake, and that is our tobacco in terest. I he product is raised at our doors by our own people, it ought not only be sold here, but ought to be worked here and prepared f.rthe cojsumer here, so that all the benefits of its handling would accrue to our people We need more factories here, more prize and packing rooms, and need them now, badly. Ca pilal tbat was ready to go into the tobac co trade here was withheld because of the want of such rooms as would accom modate the trade. He did not wish to be understood as desiring cur people to ignore other industries, for b? recogniz.d the great advantages of the diversity of enterprise; but in considering what we shall undertake he wished to impress upon our people tbat which we now tave which only needs proper encouragement to make it the best paying eisterpr.se which Asheville can undertake. Maj. Rollins made several allusions to some other matters, not exactly connec ted with manulacturing but vitally con cerning the welfaic of Asheville which met a most hearty response trom the audience. All the remaik6 ot the evening were well received. A resolution was adopted directing the President to appoint a committee to solicit subscriptions to a capital stock fund in accordance with the objects ol the meeting, 6aid stock to be in shares of fifty dollars each, and payments to be made weekly at the rate of twenty-five cents per share. The following commit tee was appointed : Natt Atkinson, G. A. Shuford, C. 1). Elan ton, H. S. Hawkins. J. G. Lindsey. VV. F. Randolph, W. W. Rollins, Dr. H. B. Weaver, V. T. Reynolds, N. P. C'hed ister, H. C. Hunt, O. T. Bawls, W. T Penniman, A. A. Featheretone, M. M. Leu ford. Books for subscription were opened, and EIGHTEEN THOUSAND, FOUR Ht NDRED DOLLAKS were at once subsciibed. There is no doubi but that FOUR HUNDRED TIIOLBAND DOLLARS will be- secured within a few days. This showb more strongly than anything else the purpose of our people to go to work, and to make Asheville what she ought to be. We hope in a few days to an nounce that an organization has been so effected that ground may be selected and wo.-k begin. Capt Atkinson offered the following which was adopted : Wherkas, This meeting is informed that there is to be a lare excursion of Northern citizens to reach Knosville on or about the 22nd inst., and Whereas, It is important to Asheville and Western North Carolina that they should be given an opportunity to see our bea'i'iful city and section ; Therefore be it resolved, That a commit tee of three members of this uoard be appointed by the President to secure as cheap railroad rates aa possible between this section and Knoxville coming and returning, and that said committee meet said excursion at Knoxville at the time of their arrival and invite them to visit Asheville and Western North Carolina during their s:ay South. The follow ing committee was appoint ed : Natt AtkinsoD, W. W. Demingand H.C. Hunt. The meeting then adjourned, subject to the call of the President. 49 - . I For the Asheville Citizen. CO-OPERATION IN ASHEVILLE. Tbe-meeting of the Board of Trade at the Court House Thursday night was an miporta-1 one, and it was well attended The court house was filled and the vast crowd, composed of every element of Asheville s population, showed the inter est our people leel in the movement The original plan of making the shares one hundred dollars each met with dis favor, and Mr. J G. Lindsey's motion to place them at hfty dollars was heartily approved and adopted without dissent, and we think, very properly so. This part led us to serious reflection on the subiect: and as a resu.t of that reflection we have concluded, that instead of plac ing the shares at hfty dollars, ihey should be lixed at 10 each. What we want is co-operation. That means, that we want every member of this commu nity, as well as others from elsewhere, to be interested in the scheme. In order to ensure this we must place it within easy reach of evary person. We venture the assertion that there are five hun dred persons in Asheville who will take one or more shares, if they are fixed, at ten dollars who would not take any in terest whatever in it at fifty dollars. Ti.ey feel that thev can pav ten dollars, i'hey feel at same time, that while they miiiii! he able to pay fifty dollars in full, vet ii the' take a share they might lose all they iiad paid short of that by way ol forieiluio or othi rwisn fi r noiicom pliance with the cntireobliga'ion or sub scription. Hence they will taUo none. Let us try the shares at ten doilars each, and give ad a chance to co-operate and feel direct interest in the movement. Listener. Moved. II. II.

It is as reasonable to expect figs from thistles as to look for sood results when poor seeds are planted. If yon plant an acorn you cannot gather apricots, and if you sow poor and ol.l seeds you can not have large and solid cabbage heads, nor round and regular tomatoes, nor perfect and juicy canteloupes. The moral of this is. Be sure you set good seeds to avoid disappointment. Lan- dreth's seeds are regarded the best all over the United States, ard you can get the best crop at Telham's Drug Store. d&wtf Has Come.

Senate : Mr. Edmunds, from the committee on foreign relations, reported a bill to incorporate the Maritime Canal Company, of Nicaragua, and said he would move fo take it up as ear ly next week aa he could get the floor. Placed on the calendar. Mr. Manderson, from the - com mittee on printing, reported a joint resolution for the disposition of un disturbed copies of recoids of the rebellion, report! of the tenth cen sus and report! of the public land commissioners. The resolution gave rise to a long discussion, in course of which Mr. Vest gave ex pression to hi! ideas as to the val ue of publications cf the govern ment printing office. He said he had a room in Washington in which there were several hundred volumes of Dublic documents bound in-calf at the expense of the government which books he could not give away, he could not trade them off. he couldknot dispose of them unless he put them in the fire. He had asked a dealer in second-handed books to make a bid for them, and his offer was one dollar for the lot, the dealer thinking that the offer was a personal favor to him. The upper portion oi the capitol was crammed to the roof with books, and he had been informed by an architect that if a spark of fire touched that material the gas from it would blow off the roof and yet there was a continued stream of these publications pouring out of the government printing office. The money might as well be taken and thrown into the Potomac river. FK nally a joint resolution was passed. It puts the undistributed copies of tr.e documents mentioned, ot the quota of ex-members, to the credit ot their sucessors in the Fiftieth congress, and in the case of ex-mem hers who have no direct successors on account of the changes of the boundaries in congressional dis tricts copies are to be sold at cost or distributed to the libraries yet un supplied. The resolutions offered on the pre vious days was then taken up in their order. The first was Mr. Plumb's resolution as to the ineffi cent postal service and it went over. The next resolution was that offered by Mr. Riddleberger to consiier the extradition treaty with Great Brit ain in open session. Mr. Kiddie- berger said he heard it suggested bY the senators around that there was no occasion for further considera tion of that matter, and he toought they were probably riglrt. He thought the British lionV tail had been twisted by a vote of 23 to 21, and he only wanted to state thig fact now in open session. Mr. Rid dleberger's allusion was to a vote in secret session yesterday, by which a consideration of the treaty was.post- poned to next December, lhe next resolution was that offered by Mr. Riddleberger to amend rule 37 so as to have the executive business con" sidered in open cession. Mr. Rid dleberger said he had offered a res olution looking to a change of the rules under which change he thought he could get the so-called British treaty considered in open session. Further remarks by Mr. Riddleberger were opposed by Mr. Hawlfy who rose to a point of order and said that the senator from Vir ginia was constantly and defiantly violating the rules of the Senate. "I did not hear the remark of the senator from Connecticut," said Mr. Riddleberger. "I made the point to order," said Mr. Hawley, "that the senator's re marks are out of ordr because they are a conscious aud wilful defiance of the rules of this body which he has taken an oath to support." The senator from Virginia said that the presiding officer would not be allowed to take up any matter of executive business when the doors of the Senate chamber are open. I wanted to ask the chair (Mr. Kid dleberger went on to explain) to listen to what I said that I wanted the resolution disposed of; but ,1 do not propose here or. anywhere else, to be called out of order at all times and under all circumstances. Further remarks were summarily cut off by the presiding officer in structing the ckrk to read the next resolution. Several resolutions of inquiry were adopted. The Biair bill being taken up sui unfinished business was laid aside after the statement by Mr. Hawley that he wished to speak upon it next Tuesday, and that another Senator wished to speak upon it next Monday. The Senate bill appropriating 850,000 additional for the public building at Peusacola, was taken up and became the text for general discussion to the erection of public buildings. At conclusion of the de bate the bill'was passed. House : Bills of a local but not of general importance were acted upon in this body.

Prince William, the heir pre sumptive to the throne of Germany, repudiates the idea with horror that Germany wants war. He said, bes ing a Brandenburg, I adopt the Brandenburg sentence; "We Bran denburgers only fear God and noth ing else in this world." The Ways and Means Committee of the House have agreed to report favorably the following : "Ue it en acted, etc., that the Secretary of the Tieasury is hereby authorized to apply the surplus money now in the treasury and not otherwise appro priated, or so much thereof as he may consider proper, to the pur chase or redemption of United States bonds." The hreathing of the Crown Prince of Germany was much worse Ihursday, and a telegram was sent to Professor Bergman urging him to hasten his arrival. It was decided by the physicians in attendance on the Crown Prince that the operation of tracheotomy must bo performed at once. The breathing of the Crown Prince become so difficult that it became' necessary to operate upon him promptly and at 4:50 Thurs day, Dr. Bramann successfully per formed the operation of tracheo tomy. The patient is progressing well. Drs. McKenie, Havell, Schorder and Krauz were present during the operation. The Parliament of Great Britain convened on Thursday. The (Queens address, among other things, said My lords and gentlemen: The meas ures which at great labor you pass ed last session for the benefit of Ireland, have been carefully carried into effect during the period since elapsed.

The measures tending to develop the resources of Ireland an facili tate an increase in the number of proprietors ot the soil will be laid before you.

Measures will not be submitted for dealing- with the proposals for adjusting relations between local and imperial finances, and for mitigating the bin dens im posed upon rate payers. lhe prospects ot commerce are more hopeful than any which I have been able to point to in many years.

He tcrtsted in southern immigration and development, and his business belore the association was to ar- range for excursion rales from points in the north and northwest to southern cities. For some time efforts haw been made to secure reasonable excursion rates to the south, but for some r ason these eft fort3 h ave failed of success. Capt. Fliers m stated to a Journal reporter last night that his mission was successful as far as the Central Traffic Association was concerned. He said that he Laid lhe whole mat ter before the association: ti.?t the excursion movement is not for selt ish ends, but for the upbuilding of the entire south. He showed the passenger agents wherein they had made concessions to the west in the shape of reduced rates, find now that the tide oi emigration is turn ing southward it would he but jus tice to tho people of the northwest, as well as the South, to make the same concessions. The president of the association stated in reply that the fault has been with the roads South of the Ohio ; that the different lines work ing under the Central Traffic Asso ciation had tendered reduced rates on former occasions, but as a mat ter of business they could not af ford to haul passengers to the Ohio river at reduced rates and turn them over to the southern lines to be transported at three cents per mile. He also considered it proper for the southern roadi to takd the initia tive and firft offer ihe reduction. The association th-' -i agreed to make such a reduce, rate from all points in its territory em roads will iirrrc also agrcid ii the rat 3 as the south upon.
