In Justice to all similarly afllicted with our selves as well as to Urs. llartan tz Gatchell, I voluntarily make the following statement : My wife bap silflsred for several years with severe lune trouble, continuing to grow worse until last November when she was unable to sit up, but a part of each day. No appetite, night sweats, severe cough and loss of flesh The best physicians of Poultney, Ver mont. advised an imm- diatc depart re South. We reached Asheville November 17th. and com menced taking treatment of Drs. Hargan and Gatchell, inha ing Compound Oxygen and Ba! am Vapor. Mr w ife has improved rapidly from the first. Her appetite is good, sleeps well, coughs bnt little, raises less, night sweats censed; no pain anywhere, takes long walks and rlimbs the mountains with little fatigue and lias gained 8 lbs. in weight. We feel certain another month's treatment will affect a permanent cure. A for myself I am delighted to state that I improved rapl ly from the first treatment and am nearly well. I have suffered for 38 years almost beyond xndurance with the worst form ot I'iles. I bad abandoned all hope of relief. The Drs. treatment has been gent e and almost painless till has effected a cure for me. Yours respectfully, A. J. Fmith.

This gentleman came here some days ago, stopping at Battery Park, in a very feeble condition, hoping to be benefited, but his sick ness, disease of the heart, had too firm a hold upon him, and he suc cumbed, as stated, yesterday. His brother, Hon. Geo. C. Langdon, ex Mayor of Detroit, will reach here to-day for the purpose of taking the remains to New York. Resolutions of Respect. At a called meeting of the Thes pian Club, D. Y. Summey in the chair, the following resolutions were adopted : Whereas, God, in His infinite wisdom has seen fit to call home our loved companion and brother George H. DeVault; and Whereas, We realize in his death we lose a true and faithful friend, well beloved by all who knew him, Be it resolved, That while we mourn his loss we bow in meek submission to the will of Him who doeth all things well. Death love a shining mark, and our brother was truly such. He was a christian, a kind, amiable and sincere friend and companion. Our loss, however, is his eternal gain. Resolved, We tender our heartfelt sympathy to the bereaved family, realizing their loss is greater than ours. j Resolved, That these proceedings be spread upon our minutes, a copy of the same be forwarded to the family, also a copy be furnished the city papers for publication. D. F. Summey, Pres. L. P. McLoud, Sec H. O. Himes, 1 E. Weddin, f Com" Sudden Death of a Good Man. From the Greenville, S. C, Moun taineer ami Messenger we get the following : The community was greatly shocked to hear of the sudden death of Mr. Thomas W. Roe, which oc curred Thursday morning, Jan. 26. at 5 o'clock. He rose from his bed after a good night's rest and fell to the flooi a lifeless form, and thus a deep ploom was sent out throueh the whole community, especially around Reedy River church, of which he has so long been a faithful and consistent member and officer. He lived to be something over 69 years old. He leaves a loving wife, six daughters and one son to mourn their loss. He was the first one called from the lamily circle in death. He was born, lived and died on bis father's oi l home place. He commenced married-life with fam ily prayer and the last thing he did on earth was to read a psalm nnd engage in prayer. His wife was Miss Sarah Stradley, the daughter of Rev. Thomas Stradley, oi Ashe ville, N. C. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. Dr. J. C. Furman, at Reedy River Church, on the afternoon 'of the 27th of Janu ary, and the remains interred in the famil' burying ground. May God's blessing rest upon the afflicted fam ily and rheer them in their great bereavement. "B'fFt-td ore the pure in heart for they shall see God." Matthew, 58. A. Friend.

Edito's of the Citizen : After your interesting paper rac'ied me and having enjoyed its content?, I have concluded to take it awhile; a'so o give you a few items of Arkansas if yi u can 2nd room in a column for them El Paso is thirty five miles North of Litt e Rock in White county and is somewhat of a billy country. We are having a good deal of snow now. Lsnds here are worth from three to ten dollars per acre. Cotton, corn and wheat are the products of this country. -This country averages about one-half a bale of cotton to the acre and about twenty five bushels of corn per acre. The people are generally from West-Tennessee, Mississippi, Georgia and North' Carolina. If they would turn their attention to the laisin? of tobacco they could make a success of it. l hey nave good topacco land J lie health of the country is good. Chills are about the worst tjikaess we are troubled with and they are-not very bad in this part. This is a very good fruit country, both for the l8rgo aud'mall frdits. The water is very good fee stone water. Churches and schools are well attended. The town of El Paso is blest with two churches Methodist Episcopal South, and Baptist, and one school house. The political pa: ties are Republicans, Democrats and Wheelers. The Wheel ers have the day in this conntv. They elect all of the ceunty officers. They say they are going to roll themselves from under the burden of high taxe3. The Wheelers are of the laboring class. I find a great many of the Buncombe county boys out here. William Cole is living in about eight miles of this place I also had the pleasure of talking with Prof. William Crain who has just re'urn ed from the Gr at West, lie left here in 1885 and went to Washington Terri tory and up to Alaska, and after spending over two years he has returned to Ark ansas. He is a North Carolinian and eays he was raised in Madison county. He is now teaching school in Johnson county, and talks of going back to North Carolina in the Spring. He talked of a young lady that he never, never will for get. I think she lives on Sandy Mush. William is a fine school teacher and a good religious boy and has many good friends here that would regret to see him leave. The society is giod, the people attend Saobath School and are dear leers of preaching. They have a good free school svsteai and pay their teachers from thirty-five to forty dollars per month. Milk cows range from ten tot went' dollars per head, pork hogs from two to four cents per lb , horses from twenty t3 one hundred dollars each. I forgot to say that oats will grow from twenty-five to fifty bushels ner acr " W. w: Discussion on an Important Su ject. We are requested to make the following announcement: There will be a public discussion at Trin ity church on the fir.t Saturday in March "next, coiilmencing strictly at 10 o'clock a. m., on the following subject: Resolved, That the results of wars are and have been more distructive to human race than Intemperance. Messrs J. L. Crook and A. H . Starnes are challenged to defend this proposition. Messrs B. R. Trull and 1 A. Taylor, will take the af firmative. Messrs A. H. Felinet, J. C. Curtis and E. W. Candler are re quested to act as judges of debate. Ladies cordially invited to attend. The C. E. Graham Companies and Enterprises. It gives us pleasure to chronicle the successful results of the venture of a good citizen. A few yeais ago Mr. C. E. Graham came to Ashe ville with small capital, but with full confidence in the future of this city and section, and behind this faith were splendid business qualifi cations, strict integrity, pluck and constant push, and these have re sulted in his being now the largest capitalist, invested in enterprises, in the city. We note elsewhere the works v.iiT. which he is connected, and of which chief manager, which owe their existence to his excellent judgment rnd enterprise. Mr. Graham believes in the future of Asheyille and Western Carolina, and his character and judgment are so well established that hp com mands all the capital he could, wi-h for any enterprise he, himseii wouJd undertake. He is a young man of whom the whole state may well be proud. " Her face so fair, as flash it seemed not, But heavenly portrait of brig'it angel's hue, Clear as the sky, withou a biame or blot.

A Strong Combination Morb ! Capital Coming to Asheville. j Mr. C.E.Graham, president of the C. E.Graham Mannftnrino- Compr:nv. has iust sold to Mr. F. If. Fuhnw;der, foimcrly of the firm e.i Ch E G'aham ct Co., but now 'proprietor of the Huguenot Mills, Gre-iiviile, S. C. and Messrs. H. Cone A- Sons, 15iltin (,re, fifty thojs ar. l dollars worth of stock of the C. E. Graham Cotton Mills, of Ashe ville, at a premium. Mr. Fulen wi !er will locate permanently in A-h -yil!t , :n d hecomrs ireasurtr of the company, while Mr. Graham in ill he president and general man ager, 'l ie' w inpany will at once add more spindles, and one hun dred and fifty ioonis, making in all three hundred and fifty loomr; also on'! additional biv,!din- 52 by 85 leet, two ptories, and will run the spinnieg department day and uight. i'iiis will give employment to about two hundred and fifty hands. The company already own a large num ber of good tenement bouses, and wiil commence the building of from twenty-five to thirty more at once. From the above some idea can be obtained ot the importance of this institution, established through the em rgy and good judgment of Mr. C. E. Graham, to Asheville. Experts vlio have examined the new mills and property say they are the most complete and best, -.quipped mills in the South. The mills are fitted throughout with the latest and no st improved machinery required for such entei prise. Under the superior management of such gen tlemen as the above, already noted for their sucessful ventures, only u:e hest results may be expected. The Messrs Cone are known throughout the country as large capatalists and most conservative investors. The concern will repre-,-eni a capital of at least one half a million of dollars. It is indeed the mo-t important and extensive prin vale enterprise yet undertaken West of tbe Biue Ridge. We chroni cle this matter with genuine pleas ure, can only wish it the succes it c. iil deserve, and congratulate Ashe ville no less than the gentlemen im mediately concerned. Renews Her Youth.
