Garland, the successful proprietor of the Buncombe "Stand ard" Wagon Works, gave U3 a pleas ant call yesterday. Business was remarkably dull among the merchants in the city yesterday, and very few people from the country were in town. A "full street railway system or nothing," is the vox populi of Asheville. Let no one dare sug gest anything short of this. Mr. T. E. Cunningham, of Lima, Ohio, member of the Board of Par dons of that state, is in the city, stopping with Mr. H. C. Hunt. Mr. E. H. Tullenwider. of the Graham manufacturing company, is off on a business trip through the Southern States in the interest of his company. Guests are arriving at the Sul phur Springs hotel. The house and grounds have been completely renovated and everything made ready for the reception of visitors. The Cliosophic literary society of Weaverville will give a public de bate on the night of April 27. Tho subject for discussion is an impor tant one and will no doubt be tn joyed by a ic.od audienrv- The Farmer's waivhoii.se yester day sold about fifteen thousand pounds of tobacco. Some of the to bacco sold brought $74, $70 and S50 per hundred. The Farmer's will close its business for this season about June 1st. Max Marcus, proprietor of the "big 22" clothing store, yesterday received a very large stock of gold sleeve buttons, scarf pint, etc. They are very handsojie. and prices charged for them are low. Marcus is doing a big trade, and we are I g:ad to le irn o! nis success. Iheoii.'t got names mixed yes-! terday, wdien it stated that Matthew Arnold was the author of the "Light of Asia," "a chief political work." Edwin Arnold, and not Matthew, was the author of the ' poem of remarkable power and beauty.' The meeting of the city authoritea to receive the bond from the street Railway company was postponed last night by request of parties in terested in both pending schemes. A compromise is aboutlo be effected whereby, it is hoped, a complete system for the city will be con structed at once. So mote it be. Capt. aad Mrs. Atkinson and their little daughter Lillie, leave this morning for Tate Springs, for the benefit of Mrs. A's health. Capt. A. leaves the matter of the street railway in the hands of his associates, but with the express un derstanding that no arrangements are to be made that interferes with the general system for which he made the fight. You are right Captain and the whole town will stand with you. The Xow World." Although a street railway meet" ing and a fashionable hall drew large numbers of people from Opera Hall last night, a large audience witnessed the performance of "The New World; or. the Land of Gold," by the Meyer-Thome Company. The plot of the play is somewhat similar to that of "li'liss" and is in teresting t9 a degree. The leading characters were excellently rendered and the support much better than on Mor day night. It is a favorite with theatre-goers and Miss Meyer and Mr. Thome fully sustained their reputation as artistes of a high order. To-night "East Lynne; or. 1 he Elopement,' will be presented, and Mr., Thome, as ' Corney" will be seen at his best. Go to see him. The Asheville Candy Factory. This industry is located on South Main street, and i- conducted by V. C. Jones fr Co., late of Chatta nooga, Tenu. Mr. Jones, the senior member of the firm, is an expert in the business, having had many ypars' experience in the manufac ture of confections. All kinds of candies and taffies are made at this factory, an i the taffies (their spec iality,) they claim superior to .all others. None but the best sugars and extracts are used in making candies, and the capacity is ttiree hundred pounds of sugar per day. They also manufacture ice-cream, rock candy, syrup, and deal exten sively in foreign and domestic fruits. They are prepared to fill orders from wholesale dealers, at the low est prices.

A Useful Invent iiii. One ol the simplest as well as most useful inventions we have yet seen is the ' World Type Writer," exhibited atJ. P. Sawyer's store, on Patlon Avenue. It does the work of an $80 Remington machine, and is so simple that a pcrso.i can learn to work it accurately in one day's time. There is no complicated ma chinery about the instrument, and it occupies but very little space The letters are placed on a semicir cular rubber band, and tho pressure of a little peg on top of the bar make tne impression. Any width of paper can bo need by timply lengthening the bar rod. The price of the instrument is only SS. and outside of New York, Philadelphia and Baltimore, this is the only city where they cau be purchased for less than $10 Mr. Sawyer will take pleasure in showing tnis instrument and explaining Ms workings to any one who desires to investigate the merits ol this truly wonderful little machine. The Farmers to the Front. It is indeed gratifying to see that our agricultural friends are mani festing so much interest in their vo cation just now in the way of form ing organizations. The French Bread Farmers' Club at Alexanders, which has been in successful operation several years, is exerting every possible effort to encourage the farmers in every sec- tion of Buncombe to fohow their example. Bv invitation. Maj. D. A. Biackwell and Mr. E D. Weaver, representatives of thy dub above mentioned, assisted in the organiza tion of two clubs in ihs northwestun portion of the county, one at liig Sandy Mush Church and t'r.v other some six miles below, near Canto P O., at the forks ot the tw creeks. These clubs were organ ized on Friday and Saturday t last week, with about fjrty members each and with the prospects of twice that number to join soon. The officer at S.m-iy Mush. John A Reeves, president: Dr. J. II. Key noids, vice-president; R. Y. Wells, secretary, and J. D. Robersontreas urer', and at. Canto: W. II. Reeves, president: J. M. Cirvi r. vice-president; M. Davis, store ary. and it. S Teagu , treasurer. These clubs represent some of the best farmers of Buncombe and Madison counties, and we feel confident their efforts in this direction will prove benefi cial to them in many particular?, and be instrumental in inspiring new zeal and enenry in other sc;'- ! tions to follow their example. A lull report of tne proceedings of these meetings, including the constitution and by-laws will be published in the Country Homes in a few days. Yancey County. Old Yancey is one of our special "points of attraction" as a splendid section. We are therefore always pleased to hear good reports from that county. Our friend Maj. J C. Campbell, who is sojourning there in now. gave us a pleasant call yes terday. He told us the crops of wheat are just as fine as cm be, cm not be excelled; the oat crop is ju-i as promising, and large crops of both have been seeded; ihe prepar ations for a large crop of corn ate much ahead of former years; the grass never has never been so lux uriant, and exceed?, Maj. C. s iy--, anything in Western North Caroli na. Tnis, of course, means fine cattle and stock. Maj. Campbell paralysed us by saying, "money matters are easy," the merchants have done better than ever before in one season, and every prospect is good for them. This was brought about by the very large sale of splendid timbers with which Yan cey abounds, purchased by the Unaka Lumber Company. The people are happy over the prospects of two railroods, the Three C's and the road from Erwin to Asheville. If these two, or even one, shall be built, old Yancey will be heard from along with the rest of the country, by way of improvements. God bless her! let her have all the advantages a good people can ask. Mr. Campbell informs us that the Rev. Mr. Baldwin, of the Southern Methodist Church has been holding a series of protracted meetings with happy effect; one on Indian Creek, where it is proposed to erect a new and handsome church building and another on Jack's Creek. Mr. Bal i win is a very popular man, and as a preacher has a somewhat remark able prominence for eloquence ai d effectiveness. Maj Campbell adds, on a totally different topic, the tobacco of Yan cey, that on Cane and Toe riyers and Jacks Creek, tobacco is produced equal to that in any part ot Nordi Carolina, or any other section. Advice to Thousand. Men without number are at this very hour straining their brain by close ap plication to business, regardless of the most important member of the human body, the eye. Thousands of women are overworking and straining the eyes huurly and daily, not thinking when the eyes give out and cease to guide the hand, their abiliiy for usefullness and enjoyment of life is done. Clerks, stu dents and laborers from close confine ment, and long hours' strain upon the eyes are rapidly impairing the same. There is no one after passing the age of thirty, that cannot find relief and protection for the eyes when at work, by using a properly adjusted lense, and hold the eye for years to iis youthful vigor. We cordially invite all to call upon us at onr rooms, and examine our stock of goods and scientific instruments for ad justing lenses for every condition of the eyes, cross eves, nearsighted, far sighted and ah otr er defects. Boom No 2, entrance 20, Grand Cen tral Hotel. y JAaIWOH Wbwkibk. To Have a Street Railway Mr. Aesop tells n fable which runs so aevvhat thus : A lark had built her nest in a wheat field. On one occasion, upen her return home, her offspring, with much concern, told her the owners of the field had been out and arranged with some neigh bors to gather Ihe uirvest. The mother bird with much wisdom told the young ones not to be alarmed, that they would not bo disturbed yet awhile. The next day, sure enough, the neighbor? tailed to re spond The master caiae the next evening, and said he would stud for his cousins end nephews' to come and harvest the grain. When the old bird was told this, she again cautioned her pets to be calm, that they would not yet be disturbed. The relatives failing to put in an .a clearance, the master told his boys to be ready earl3' the next ni:rning, that they would not further depend on others, but do the work themselves When the old bird was told this she told the children io prepare at once to move. Our people have waited upon strangeis and others for several years to come and build a street railway, only to be disappointed. Finally, our people began to con sult among themstlyes and deter mined they, themselves, could do the work. As one and another plan had tailed, some gentlemen inter ested in South Asheville asked tho privilege of building a line from the depot, through .that section, to the public square, whereupon, Capt. Atkinson whose energies and pub lic spirir comprt:!); nds the entire city and section, f-ariug i heir short stem -winder might do damage t a lirger system, bestirred himsr-I;' and fo'ip.d other prominent and progres sive capitalists ot the city to join him and pledge the immediate con struction of a system extending from the depv.t up Depot Street to Patton Avenue, thence to Main Street, up -and down Main Street from Wood liii corner to town branch, and from the square down C :h-g. Oak, Wo.idlin, Charlotte, Chestnut ria M-rrimou Avenue to North .Main and back to a conn-c-tio t at the Woodfm corner. ! his system is to be built, that por tion from the depot . to the pubh'c sqaare within six months from the gr-siiting i 1 the charter Decem- her last, and completed as above n. appt d out within two years from December, or all rights, privi leges, etc , granted by the authorities t-ha 1 be forfeited. Capt. A. aud his associates accept this charter witii ail its obligations, and, on condition that no charter or privileges be granted to any other company agreed to life a good bond for five thousand dollars as guarantee ot the fulfillment of the contract, to be forfeited in case of failure. Too much credit cannot be given Capt. Atkinson and his associates, Messrs Reynolds, Williamson, W. V. Bar nard, J. E. Ray for their energy; but it illustrates the fable we have given, that when our people deter mine to do for themselves they sue ceed. The gentlemen who proposed theSoutbside stem winder are also entitled to the gratitude of the com munity for their proposition, for it immediately breathed the bieath of life into that which was a most un interesting corpse, and will secure for Asheville a very considerable benefit. While they have not suc ceeded for the present in obtaining permission to build their short line, they haye emphasized one fact, that the system when completed, either by fie one or the other company, must comprehend the extension of a line through that section at an early date. If one company will not construct it anot.ier will. So altogether the sell-dependence of oui own people is the greatest re liance for Asheville after all. We will have a street railway, now that our own people have taken hold of the matter. Sharp to the I-lml. A New York telegram ol the 15th gives the following sensational item : Rumors are rife in this city, and it meets with much comment and is believed by a great many good people, that Jake Sharp is not dead. That early, empty funeral procession ts said by many to have been a feiiam. Nobody outside of the family saw the old man die, and Wall street policy forbade that he should go to Sing Sing. It is fur ther believed that his triends sub stituted a "stiff," which was enclosed in the coffin and buried, and that Jake Sharp himself is in Canada or tlsewnere, alive and well.

Real Estate Agents, are fortunate in the possession of a piece of prop erty so eligible in all respects as the Howell property. The tract contains 13 A acres, and lies fronting on North Main, Cherry and Mulberry streets. Through the center there has been opened an avenue of fifty feet width extending from Maine to Mulberry with a probable extention to Academy street. This Avenue has been admirably well graded, the hanks in the cuts nicely turfed and shade trees planted along the border. There was a remarkable line and bold siuing in the very line of the avenue. The spring has been covered with rock, cemented, and the water con veyed to another point, where it bnrstes out in its original volume and purity. The lots vary in size, from 50x75 to 75x200. with a few- of still larger size. The whole property is a beautiful one.
