THAT NUISAVCE. It M unt Go A Disgrace to tho City and the Authorities. Time and again has the Citizen, complying with the request of a number of citizens of Asheville, called the attention of the city au thorities to the existence of a den of infamy and disrepute located at tho corner of Pulliam and Water streets. . That it is a nui sance, and a serious one, is no longer denied by those who are so unfortunate as to be fully ac quainted with the character of this house. It is a ;ommon ren dezvous for women of ill-fame of both colors, who, together with the worst class of males, irre spective of color, make the night hideous and sleep a stranger to those who reside in the vicinity by fights and brawls, quarrels and obscene language that would cause a blush to mantle the cheek of the lowest cyprian that lives in Chicago. Ladies living near, or passing along thi3 locality are subjected to a deluge of profan ity, obscenity and vice, day in and day out, throughout the year. An occasional arrest is made at this place, but it has no effect whatever on the morals or future quietude of the other habitues. Guests at the Grand Central ho tel are also subjected to the same disagreeable state of affairs, and no protection is granted them in the matter. They have to "grin and bear it," and carry away with them a very bad opinion of the enforcement of law and order in Asheville. "What we have stated above are facts, and Ave can provo them. We now ask the Mayor and Board of Aldermen of the citv of Asheville to either con demn and close up this detesta ble, infamous resort for the worst characters in the city, or else give the citizens proper police protec tion in that locality. It is the duty of the authorities to sup press this den, and we anxiously await their immediate action in the premises. Noble Words of a Noble Man. On Tuesday President Cleveland was formally notified of his nomina tion for re-election. He replied in the following noble wc. els : "I cannot but he favorably im pressed when I see about me tlie mes scngers of the national democracy bearing its summons of duty, 'lhc political party to which I owe allegi ance both honors and commands me. It places in my hand its proud stand ard and bids me bear it high at the front of the battle which it wages bravely, because concious of the right; confidently, because its trnst is in the people ; and soberly, it comprehends the obligations which success im poses. The message which you bring awakens within me the liveliest sense of personal gratitude and satisfaction, and the honor which you tender me is, in itself, so great, that there might well be no room ror ;.ny other senti ment, and yet I cannot rid myself of the grave and serious thoughts when I remember that party supremacy is not alone involved in the cenflict which presses upon us, but that wc struggle to secure and save cherished institutions, the welfare and happiness of a nation of freemen. Familiarity with the great office which I hold has but added to my appreciation of its sacred character and the consecration demanded of him who assumes its immense responsibilities. It is a re pository of the people's will and pow er. Within its vision should be the protection and welfare of the humb lest citizen and with a quick ear it should catch from the remotest corner of the land the plea of the people for justice and for right. For the sake of the people, he who hold's this of fice of thcir's should resist every en croachment upon its legitimate func tions and for the sake of the integ rity and usefulness of the office, it should be kept near to the people and be administered in full sympathy with their wants and needs. This occa sion reminds me most vividly o the scene, when, four years ago I received a message from my party similar to that which you now deliver. With all that has passed since that day I can truly say that the feeling of awe with which I heard the summons then is intensified manifold when it is repeated now. Four years ago I knew that our chief executive office if not carefully guarded might drift little by little away from tke people to whom it belonged and become a perversion of all it ought to be, but I did not know how much its moor ings had already been loosened. I knew four years ago how well devised were the true principle of true dem ocracy for the succesful operation of the government by tL? people and for the people j-bufr-1 -did - not know how absolutely necessary their applica tion then was for the restoration to the people of their safety and pros perity. 1 knew then that abuses and extravagance had crept into the man agement of the public affairs, bnt I did not know their numerous forms nor the tenacity of their grasp. I knew then something of the bitterness of partisan obstruction, but I did not know how bitter, how reckless it could be. (Pro longed applause.) I knew too that the American people were patriotic and just, bnt I did not know how grandly they loved their country nor how noble and generous they were. I shall not dwell upon the acts and policy of the adm nistration now drawing to its close. Its record is open to every citizan of the land and yet I will not be denied the privelege of asserting at this time that in the exercise of the high trust confided to me I have yielded obedience enly to the constitution and solemn obliga tion of my oath of office, I have done those things which in the light of un derstanding God has given roe, seemed most suited to the welfare of my countryman and the promo tion of good government. I would . not if I could for myself nor for you avoid a single consequence of a fair - interpretation of my course. It but remains for me to say to you and through you to the democracy of the nation that I accept the nomination . with which you have honored me and that I will in due time signify such acceptance in the usual formal man lier." The President's remarks were made in an enrnest and emphatic manner and were frequently interrupted by applause. This closed the speech making and then all present proceeded to the state dining room and partook of light refreshments. liATK NEWS BRIEFS Carefully Condensed from Mail and Wire. Chicago's grain market shows some improvement. Mr. Cleveland has been formally notified by a committee of his .re nomination. J. S. Clarkson, ofj Iowa, has been elected permanent chairman of the Republican National Exec utive Committee. A train of 87 cars, in sections, passed through Fredericksburg, Va., on the 25th, loaded with Southern fruits, vegetables and melons for the Northern markets. With two eyes fixed upon Mr. Morton's bar'l, certain republic ans are shouting North Carolina and Virginia are doubtful States. Mr. Morton has not been accused of being a fool yet. Blaine, J. G., the great gone out, telegraphs from Scotland his congratulations to Mr. Harrison. Having "been there" himself, he is anxious for some other fellow to get there and see how it feels. President Cleveland vetoed a bill granting a pension to the widow of a soldier who got killed while trying to separate some brother 'soldiers fighting. The President docs not think this was dying while performing military service. Two workmen in Buffalo, N.

W1VA As he climbed up ty the support of the lightning rod the rod broke and he fell a distance of one hun dred feet upon the roof and was instantly Kiuea. Mr. Scott Partin's Case. One of the most sensational murder cases that ever shocked the sensibilities of the people of North Carolina took place in WaVe county in 1S75. One Scolt Partin killed his wife and child under circumstances of peculiar atrocity and then escaped, not to be heard of again until secentlv, when, with tbat singular fatuity, ho returned to the scene of his crime, was arrested, and appears to have been luiiy luentined. From the Raleiirh Dispatch correspond ence. we extract the following succinct narrative : A preat sensation was caused here to day by the news that Alfriend WinGeld l'artin alias Scott l'artin bad been captur ed at Sclma. N. C. for thirteen years he bad been an outlaw, acd bis disappear ance lias been a rival mystery to that of Waller Bingham, who murd. red M-sa Turlington. In the early sprini! of 1875 Partin, who lived iu Wakecountv fifteen mile, (-until of Kaleigb, killed his wife, Annie, an I hid daughter eight months old, cnl up their bodies, and placing the mutilated remains in a gunny-bag, buried them in a marsh, i he strange disappear ance of l'artin's wife and child was not explained. i he entire section was searched, and two months later their mangled bodies were found. Careful investigation showed tha'. the bodies were those of the wife and child of Partin The general sentiment, aided bv the strongest circumstantial evidence, at once pointed to him as tiie murderer. At the June term of the Superior Court of Wake a true bill a as round against fartm, but he had made his escape and all efforts to discover his whereabouts proved futile In July the State offered $100 reward. There were hundreds of searchers, and for two years an almostconstant endeavor was made to find Partin, who it was claimed, was in hiding in the heavy for ests south of Raleigh. Every year aim e the murder there have been rumors that Partin bad been seen. But this desper ate crimiual has at last been captured, and that in a singular manner. AtSelnia Saturday a tramp made his appearance. On being questioned he gave evasive answers. It was finally discovered that the tip of a finger on his right band was missing. The defect tallied with a similar defect in Scott Partin, and he was identi fied at once by Davis Price and Reuben Watkinson, who bad worked with him in a cooper 6liop years ago. The tramp kept his eye on Price and tried to hide his maimed finger. They asked him where he was from. He told them be was from Pennsylvania had been work ing in the mines but that the people were not very kind to him and he thought be would come back to this section of the country, where he was born and raised. At first be said his narr.e was John Scott, but afterwards gave the name of John Moore. Price, who had spotted him, went to a constable, secured a warrant, and had him arrested charged with being Partin. He cursed, and said tbat any one who said ho was Scolt Par tin told a lie. He toid the magistrate that be was born in Buncombe county, in this State, and removed to Davidson county and then to Greensboro. He was further identified by several other par ties. Telegrams were sent to Solicitor Argo to-daj informing him of the arnet and that identification was complete. The solicitor called oa Governor Scales and discussed the matter with him,' and as a result a capais was sent to Selma this afternoon for Partin, anJ he will be brought here to-ccorrow. The feeling against him -is, after the lapse of thirteen years, still intenpe, and there may be an attempt at lynching, though the jail is one of the strongest in the State acd is in the centre -i the city. It was rumor ed tbat be would be brought here this afternoon, and great crowds of men gatheri'd it the depot and jail. IIw to Keep Cool.
