EAGLE HOTEL,
ASHEVILLE, N. C., APRIL, 1861.
Dear Sir: Permit me to call your attention to the
EAGLE HOTEL, i have it re-painted; all the rooms
are neatly carpeted, and th« Hotel is in better order
than any other House in the mountains of North Caro
lina. I am also better supplied with good and atten
tive servants than any Hotel iu this part of the State.
I would say to the first class visitors that I an* pre
pared to entertain you, in a style superior to any house
in Asheville. Having had f>everal yeirs experience in
the business, I flatter myself that I can make your stay
at the EAGLE, both pleasant and agreeable.
In connection with this large Hotel, I have a number
of new and beautiful
HACKS, C.4RRI\6ES. BIGGII^S. AND SADDLE HORSES,
That my guests can get at a minute’s uotice. I will
keep a Carriage in readiness for persons that may be
desirous of taking morning or evening rides. I assure
the travelling public that the^’ will find everything they
may desire at the Eagle to make them comfortable.
This Hotel has superior advantages over any other
house in Asheville, as the Stage Office is kept here for
all the Stages that arrive at and depart from this place.
I would say to families that intend visiting our beau
tiful town, and expect to re»nain several weeks, it will
be well for them to write and engage rooms, as the
Eagle is generally pretty much crowded by the middle
of July. As regards charges. 1 will make them suffi
ciently moderate to suit the present times.
Hoping to have the pleasure of seeing you at the
Eagle, 1 am yours respectfully.
M. BL.\TR, Proprietor.

The hotise of Mr. Wm. Anderson has been

j The Talk about Imjjroved Arms.—We hear a
! great deal in these days of “improved arms;” but
I while, no doubt, there has been some improve-
I ment, we question whether the exaggerations of
! their value have not done more harm than good.
They have held men to rely on the weapon instead
of themselves. The poor devils trom Ohio and
Pennsylvania, who, three to one, fought our troops
at Philippi, were armed with Minnie muskets; yet
j most of their balls lodged in the trees. The im-
! proved arms of the Massachusetts Rigiment, which
I was mobbed in passing through Baltimore, were
j no match for the improved men who, armed with
I brickbats and clubs, drove them howling through
I the streets. Xone of the battles of modern times
j have been as destructive of human life as those
1 which occurred before the invention ot gunpow-
j der, when men fought with swords, spears, bows
; and arrows, &c., and trusted in themselves in-
.stead of their weapons. And notwithstanding
all the improvements in cannon and muskets, the
slaughter in the late Italian war was not to be
compared to that in some of Xapoleon's great bat
tles, before any of the so-called improvements had
been made.
The truth is, the old Virginia rifle, the old
fashioned musket, the double-barrel shot-gun, are
all a? good in the hands of a man who is bent on
fight as any weapon that may be used. It is not
the weapons, it is the men who use them, that
decide a victory. Let a man's heart be influ
enced with vengeance and a love of country,and he
will make the poorest weapon equal to the best
“improvements." Anything that will send a ball
—anything that will make a wound—is a danger-
OU.S weapon in the hands of a brave and determ
ined man. On the other hand, the best weapons
cannot supply the place of a courageous spirit and
a good cause, and they who lean upon “improved”
arms, and not upon valor and determination of
soul, will find that they are leaning upon a broken
reed.— Rirhmond Dmpntch.
Si^ns of Alnrm.—The following paragraph
from the Philadelphia Inquirer indicates that the
Yaiikees are not quite so certain ol' their game as
they pr.ifess to be. It admits the pos.-ibiiity of
a dt'teat in Virginia, and it see.s very clearly the
(“tdisequt-nces if such an event: the invaded
would b?c(ime the invaders. Virginia, assailed
in her rights and firesides, would, in turn, carry
fire ai^d sword to the homes of her assailants.
This is the determination of every man in ^'ir-
trinla. If ever the opportunity presents it-'^elf we
will wreak a rich revenge on those who have
vfTDnged us.
“.>laryland, too, would be in ablaze again!”
Of eonr'C it would The freemen there are wuit-
inir their time—and it is some comfort fb know
that the tyrant and all his brood live in constant
dread ol the uprising of that outraged people.
.^Iay the day of deliverance and vengeance be near
at handl
A defeat in a general engagment in Eastern Virginia
—an event certainly quite improbable—would not on I v
lead to an immediate incursion into Pennsylvania from
Virginia but would set Maryland in a blaze again. It
i:- not the few regiments quarterel in Baltimore that
keep dowii the mob in that «ity; that salutary effect is
produced by the overwhelming force at W’aehingion.
.Any disaster to this force would be the signal for an
uprising in Maryland, and a rush for plunder. With
such elements of mischief around us, is it well to be
content with the insufficient preparation which we have
made?
Starving the South!—This is a vain boast of
the Yankees, when God is manifesting His bless
ings on every hand, and sendinir the rain and the
sunshine to fructify the earth and cause her to
yield abundant increase, in the rebellious South.
The crops in this section are most promising,
wheat better than ev’er known before, and corn
pushing ahead with vigorous growth. We saw
on the farm of Dr. Dean near this town, last week,
wheat that will yield 20 bushels to the acre, that
was sown on reclaimed old field, and better lands
will yield 30 bushels to the acre on the same farm.

of Commerce gives an estimate of the expenses
of the Yankee Government for one year. Omit
ting private contributions and wagons, medicines,
cannon, the gross amount is put down at
8200,000,000 It another hundred million were
added for omissions, and rogueries generally, we
should probably not be far from the mark.
How is this vast sum to be raised? Already
the Government has shown its weakness by its
inability to borrow nine millions. To meet ita
daily expenses, it has been forced to resort to an
issue of Treasury notes.—IHihmnnd Whig.
