Contrast this with the delightful weather we are having here; when a walk or a ride in our health giving, life inspiring climate serves but to brace the system, strengthen and vivify any weakness, and send the life blood leaping and dancing from finger-tip3 to toe.

Laughran, of this C'ty, yesterday showed us a copy of the Norfolk (Va.) Advocate, contain ing a whole page advertisement of Jno. B. Laughran's great three story instalment house in that city. Jno. B. is a brother of Messrs. J. H. and Frank L.iughran, of this city, and is the pioneer installment merchant in the Southern States. By his plane a man can buy a suit of clothes, furnitur?, house-furnishing goods, or almost anything else he wants by paying one dollar per week until the entire amount has been paid. Such a house would do a big busi ness in Asheville, and we are sur prised that such an enterprise has not been established in this city be fore. There is money in it. Mr. Laughran is Master Workman ot the Norfo.k Assembly K. of L., and the Advocate saya : "He is a typi cal working man and a noble friend of the cause of labor. He has built himseif up and made a trade for himself that defies competition, because he makes it a practice to be just and fear not. He ia'affable ana courteous, and when any one goes to the ' Pioneer Instalment Temple" to buy they get the worth of their money, and the satisfaction of deal ing with a good man." The secret of Mr. Laugran's success lies, in a large measure, to the fact that ho believes in judicious advertising. No merchant who advertises safely and wisely has need to fear insolv ency and the sheriff.

To remove it only means simply to deposit near the city, and the future effect of thi3 must be dangerous to health, to say nothing of present offensiveness. The safest and we believe the most economical way to get rid of such sfuff will be the erection cf a fur nace for the promnt and thorough burning of it. Will our authorities not consider this matter?

Heavy on Sam. The Columbia correspondent o' the Charleston Newt and Courier writes on the 19th concerning Rev. Sam Jones: "Sam Jones addressed a very large congregation at the Washing ton Street Methodist Church this morning. His discourse was no more a lecture than it was a sermon, and was fully as vulgar and offen si.ve aa bis 'ettvr at the Ojpera f4nl3.eA lnl niabt lVf llll o' " vrt. devoted to ridculing what" he" declared to be the peculiarities of various denominations, and he was so insulting sis to disgust a number of hia hearer?. People must have pretty strong stomachs to digest the sort of spiritual food which this al leged preacher has offered to Co lumbia." Mr. Jones must have used some very strong language to have eyoked such severe criticism. A Well Deserved Compliment. The many friends of S. McD. Tate will read the following- from the Raleigh News-Observer with genuine pleasure : "It will be gratifying to all who Lad occasion to know and to ap preciate the excellent and valua ble work done by Col. S. McD. Tate, while here in charge of the broken State National Bank, to hear that the Comptroller of the Currency was so much pleased with Col. Tates excellent work here and the dispatch, ability and :curacy with which he managed te affairs of the bank that he has added to the territory under his supervision as bank examiner the three States of South Carolina, Georgia and Florida. Col. Tate's territory formerly embraced West Virginia, Virginia and North Car olina. The Comptroller wrote Col. Tate a letter of a most com plimentary character, commend ing him for his faithful and effi cient services in the past, and es specially with regard to his re cent labors in this city. This is indeed a high honor and one which is an unmistakable evi dence of the confidence in which Col. Tate is held. He fully de monstrated his ability while here and made many friends, who will rejoice at this acknowledgment of his faithful work." Svrup of Flics. Is Nature's own true laxative.
