Osborne, Committee. Gentlemen: I am in receipt of your favor of August 23d, notifying me of my unanimous .nomination for Congress by the convention of the Democratic party of the 9th Con2i"essional District. I beg to convr;y to the people of the district my sincere and grateful acknowledgments for this renewed pic-ssion of their confidence in me and to assure them that in acn cepting the honor so generously conferred, 1 feel that the embar rassment in assuming the responsi bilities and burdens it brines with it will be measurably relieved by the many-evidences I have otherwise received by a hearty and united sup port of the democracy of the dist:ict as well as from many others who desire above all- things else the re duction of the now oppressive taxes. levied on our people,and the con tinuance of an honest administra tion of the government. I hope it will be my privilege as t certainly will be my pleasure, to make a canvass of the district be fore the election and address the people on the questions which so deeply concern their welfare, and n the discussion of which our party courts the fullest sctutiny. 1 deem it no. inappropriate tn this connection to inform my friends through vou that with this purpose in view as soon as 1. recstv.KLjiotyc of my nomination, I addressed a communication to my opponent re questing him to wait 'till I could leave my duties here befoie engage ng in the canyass so that we might have a joint discussion ot the issues involved between us. This he de- cl'neil to do and I am informed that he has already made several ap pointments and is actively engaged in the campaign alone. I submit it to that sense of fair dealing so characieristic of all our people w helher c- no' this supposed idvantage which is Inus te'ng tai ken of my enforced absence ftcm the district in discharge of the pub lic duties to whch they have called me is net a virtual acknowledgment of the weakness of the cause he advocates . and an evidence of the fears he has of subjecting to the test of fair debate the position assumed by him and his party that of opposing a just reduc tion of all unnecessary and oppressive taxation. I am conscious of the correctness and justice of the position of our party on tha great question of the contest, and have implicit faith in that inherent good sense of our people which neither sophistry can deceive or demagoguery mislead, and hence 1 feel that 1 can, with perfect confi dence trust to them to do me justice and to rebuke by their votes any ad vantage which may be attempted whilst I am absent attending to the interests of all my - constituents of whatever race or party. 1 hanking you. gentlemen, for your kindly assurances of personal regard, I am, with high esteem, very truly yours, Thos. D. Johnston.

Mr. Ewart. who hv js accompanied by Mr. Foirof the Aavance-JUeratd, went to Mr. Joseph Eller's for dinner, while Capt. Adams and the Citizen rep resentative, were most hospitably entertained by president J. is. Brigman, of the Mat Creek Cleve land and Fowle Club. Mr. Ewart, bein.delayed at Mr. Eller's, did not return to the schoolahouse until nearly three o'clock. The meeting had been but poorly ad vertised throughout the township ancthis fact, coupled with the very disagreeable weather, kept the people away there being onlj about twenty present. This was Mr. Ewart s appointment, and after a consultation with Capt Adams, the discussion was postponed on account of the facts above stated, and the gentlemen returned to Asheville.

Augusta. We are much concerned for the calamities which have fallen upon the city with which we have be come so pleasantly associated, and whose advance in growth and consequence we have witnessed with so much pleasure. The flood which recently visited that city was the greatest and most dis- tructive on her records. The water reached a height never be 'ore known, being nearly thirty- nine feet above low water mark. The city being on a level but lit tle above the river, this rise me&nt the overflow of nearly the wbf le ot it. The great business street. Broad, was three feet un der water, and the beautiful Green street, with its quadruple line of trees, was a roaring torrent, and was left an impassable rum when the waters subsided. The canal which turns all the machiney of the cotton mills had its banks broken in a number of places. causing a stoppage 01 worK tor several weeks; the water supply was cut off, and so were the light ing facilities. The injury to the canal is estimated at $200,000, and that to the property in the citvat $1,000,000. The railroads approacning tne city were ob structed by the destruction of trestles and embankments. Ham' burg, on the South Carolina side of the river, was destroyed with the exception of a veiy few brick houses. A bad feature of the calamity wai the loss of life, six whites and five nesrroes havinar been drown ed. - Augusta, with her repeated ex perience of overflow and injury win be compelled to protect ner- self with a levee, and she will do it as a cheap and effective defence against the water.

England has its Tichborne, and America boasts of its Blaine. These are the two great claimants of the century. During the ex citement pending the ascertaing of the result of the election in New York in 1884, Mr. Blaine told his friends "to claim every. thing." On the day following the recent election in Maine, this dis tinguished claimant hastened "to claim everythino:" and telegraph ed Gen. Harrison the republicans had carried the btate by a larger majority than for twenty ; years. Now that all the returns are in, the republican vote of the State only increased 1824 or .023 per cent over the vote of 1884, while the democratic increase was 3038 or .052 per cent. The pluralities however, show a reduction this year as compared with the votes of 1884. The republican plurality this year is 18,495. In September 1874 it was 19700, ,nd in Novem ber of the same jar Mr. Blaine's plurality was 20060. This does not look like the people are so thoroughly opposed to tariff re form and a reduction of taxation. It also looks as though Mr. Blame has lost his grip in everything save the right to "claim every thing," and get nothing. The eople are with Cleveland and ower taxes this year. f Advertisement.
