The feature of the evening was "Norma," of which the following is the synopsis : 4 xsorma, a Druid Hign Priestess, has secretly married Pollio, one of the Roman invaders of her country, which is against the laws of the Druids. The penalty is death on the pile. Pollio proves unfaithful and wins the love of Adalgisa, a priestess of the altar. Norma dis covering this in her jealousy thinks to denounce them, thus condemning Adalgisi to the pile, and, os High Priestes3, declare war on the usurp ers. ineoTil act opens with her second resolution to slay her chil dren to save them from disgrace and give herself up, but by persua sion of Adalgisa they form a com pact ot friendship." 1 iie music was very line, and the performers and characters deserved much credit for their splendid and clever acting.

Crowded With Guests and Coming in Every Pay., More ,.Notvitbstanding the fact that the enemies of Asheviile are circulating false and -damaging reports regard ing the health of our city, the visi tors to the mountains for the um raer season continue to pour in on every train. Those that come here in'face of ail these rmuigning ru in 0)';, a rid mi-.- ?a ! vm t j , ts r.s to the true ;-t,uu- df rhinos, are :m.--t fgr.ee abr!i'rjurpr:fl to find upon '.their' ar rv:ii ii, Ash-.-vi.T..-, u it a fciiigK.

They soon fini out that all they have heard are falsehoods of a most palpable nature, and the first thing they do upon ascertaining the truth, is to write to their lriends at home a truthful and honest description of Asheviile; its status of health, and its climatic advantages, and urge upon them to pack their trunks and come at once to this El Dorado of health, hope and happiness in the mountains cf Western North Carolina. And these friends act upon their advice and come right along, regardless, in a great meas ure, of the malicious lies that are circulated by parties to whom truth and honor are really strangers. At Battery Park we find that one hundred and eighty-five guests are comfortably quartered, and enjoying life to its fullest measure. Not a single sick or even indisposed visi tor is at the house, and among those there we found residents from al most every State in the Union. They are there from the heat-stricken cities of the South to the polaric cities of the extreme North. They are there from almost everywhere, and they are satisfied, happy and con tented. They give no credence to these miserable rumors, because they have carefully analyzed them in search for a foundation, and have not found one scintilla of truth or cause for their utterance. Manager Steele, of Battery Park, has shown us letters upon letters from people living in other States, which come from them filled with praises . of Asheville's health and advantages, and assuring him that they placed no faith m these absurd reports, knowing as they did from experi-1 ence, their complete falsity. In ad dition to all this, quite a number of .1 ! i I J I uiesu uurre&puuuwuuf tiay e siguiueu their intention of coming to Ashe viile and bringing along with thorn a party of their lriends. Some of them have even engaged rooms at the hotel, and will arrive here in a few davs. The reports concerning Ashevihe are denied by some of these parties, who nsevery emphatic language in their denials. Who the parties are circulating these reDorts, we know not : but of one thing we are absolutely certain: That is, whoeyer they are, they have villified truth, honor, justice and every other characteristic ot honest men, in the interest of those whom vengeance will be surely visited upon, sooner or later. At the bwannanoa hotel, we nnd the house crowded with visitors, and like those at Battery Park, are from every poiat ot the compass. There is no fear of sickness among them, and the reports that have been circulated again Bt Asheviile, are laughed to scorn by them. There is not a single case of sick-. ness of any descnption at the Swannanoa, and, indeed, there does not exist the slightest tear of an epi demic even among the most scary and timid. They fully realize the fact that there is no cause for alarm, and we learn that they, also, are writing to their friends to come to Asheviile. "Oakland Inn" and the Grand Central hotel, are filled with visitors from all over the Union. They are healthy, lively, and as happy as can be. When asked about the rumors, they reply, almost invariably: "Of course we know that no such thing exists; we know they are lies out of the Whole cloth, and that is what we-tell our meeds at home m our letters." Abheviile Sulphur Springs hotel, and-the boarding houses in the city. a re in the same catezorv as the othtr places we have mentioned, ana everywhere in -the city we have been, the crv has come, "vve are Tilled up, and are expecting more people than wo can conveniently accommodate. We shall have to enlarge our accommodations in or der to meet the demands made upon us by an unusually heavy summer travel" And again we say to the people, be not deceived bv the false rumors and libels UDon the fair name of Asheyille. .These rumors are in every instance miserable lies, and their authors are liars of that class of humanity that even the devil would refuse to associate with - in his sulnhurous domain.

By A large crowd of people who had purchased tickets for Asheviile were frightened into stopping at other points Monday and Tuesday by state menta that typhoid fever was raging in this city. To show how far this outrage has been carried we "were al lowed to see a letter from a lady of Columbia received here yesterday, which says : "We hear typhoid fever is raging in Asheviile so we are afraid to risk for some time to come. ' We hope to visit your city soon." On yesterday we made earnest in quiries, nojt only of physicians, but of, others, and not a case of fever ex ists in the city, and the only cases at all that we have arc those who have come here sick. Drs. Hilliard, Williams, Neilson, Burroughs, Battle, and others assure ns there is not a case of typhoid fever or any other case of serious illness in Asheviile. These agents of other places should strive to refrain from lying, if they have not courage enough to tell the truth ; and thus let the traveling public take its own course to Asheviile or slop else where. In view of the malignant at tempts of cross-roads places to in jure Asheviile by deliberate lying we ask our brethren of the press to give us the benefit of this statement. ' Redaction in Rates. Mr. E. G. Carrier, proprietor of the Asheviile White Sulphur Springs' Hotel gives notice that he has reduced his rates for board at this hotel ten per cent, the guests in the house hav ing benefit of the reduction. This is putting the rates very cheap. Robt. R. Porter. Our old true and tried friend Bob is on his rounds again; not - his an nual rounds, nor his spring nor his autumn rounds; for Bob, like the whirligig of lime, is revolving all the time; he is so popular and bo welcome that the town and country stores on the lines of his route, buy and renew their ordeis just for the pleasure of seeing him, and also to testify to the truth of his representa tions. He promises to sell what is worth the money and more; and be does so. Therefore we always take pleasure in chronicling Bob Por ter's movements. Quick; Work. - -Chie of P01" "Waddell yesterday received a letter from chief of police Kennedy, of Greenville, S. C , asking - ' ' him to be on the lookout for, and ar rest a "coon," named Robt. Good win, wanted by him for larceny. Chief Waddell detailed "one of the finest," in the person of officer Rowan to work up the case, and in twenty I minutes afterwards, Rowan had caged hig . and notified the S(th Carolina officer. This was quick work, andjwe venture the assertion, without fear of contradiction that the Ashe viile "cops'' "lay over the deck" in the way of policemen. Mr. Wiley Shook For Finger. A special to the . Raleigh Chronicle from Waynesville gives this infor mation: Waymesville, Thursday, 1 p. m. Wiley Shook, the leading Re publican of this county and editor of the Clyde Rgister, hag declared that he will vote for Maj. Finger for Su perwtedent of Schools. He cannot stand the ignoraace of Mason. There ie a tremendous crowd here and great enthusiasm. A. H. M.

Have been informed meningitis and fever are in Ashe viile. Is it so ? Answer. R. W. Taylor.'' So it goes. With no case of men ingitis since February, and no fever at all in existence, th malicious liar ply their trade, and unhappily are believed in too many instances. The "Old Boy" has a hot p!ac s. f r these fellows, depend upon it. : No Fever at St. Aoinstlne Mr. Geo. VWAtwood, vice pres ident of the ?t. Augustino Iuijrrove bent Co jTis'iulh'k city. He shflwt! ns the following telegram from Ju,. W. Allen, eecretary of the s.ime cor poration, which he received last night : St. Augustine, Fla., August 15, 1883. ' (?, W. Atwood, Asheviile, N. C. : There is no fever here at all. Everybody well, and you need not feel in the least alarmed. , Jas. W. Alles. Pritcbard and the Negro. Mr. Pritchard was nominated for L,t.-Governor by a negro; this was seconded by a negro; and his nomi nation was made by a convention composed of a majority of negroes; yet he loses no .opportunity to de nounce negroes in his speeches in this section where there are but a lew negro voters. He haB de nounced the white authorities oi Mitchell for binding white orphan children to u negro. If this were true we would gladly join Mr. Prit chard in the denunciation; but noth ing of the sort ever occurred. He is repeating Wiley Shook's charge that a white orphan was allowed to stay with a negro in Haywood, and the negro was paid lor it by the county authorities; and yet, in Wiley's very statement of tho case, while the authorities paid the good colored man for what he had done for the helpless little fellow they or dered the child taken by the proper authorities and cared for. There is no truth in the Mitchell county affair, and the Haywood authorities acted like humane people will al ways act. according to Mr. Shook's own statement. And it is such things as these that Mr. Pritchard hopes to make vote for bim among the white people of the West. Jf. Smtt Mnontmtnt.
