On the reception ol the official notification, Justice Merri mon resigned the position lie was hold ing to accept trie appointment. He will be sworn into his new office on nexl Monday. ! j The resignation of Justice Merrimon created. a vacancy in; the Associate Jus-j ticeship, and .the Governor appointed Judge Walter Clark! to that honorable position. He has resigned from the Su perior Court Judiciary to accept the ap pointment. ' j . Judge Clark's resignation caused a va cancy in the State Judiciary to be filled. : It is authoritatively stated that the: Governor has written Mr. Spier Whita ker tendering him ;the Judgeship made vacant by Judge Clark's resignation. He is expected: to return from Wilmington to-night.1 It is not known whether he will accept the app6intment or not. Under: the provisions of the law, all these appointments hold over till the next general election for members of the Legislature. This election will occur in November, 1891, and the action just taken, for the State to elec Kailroad Projects for Asheville. There can be noj doubt but that with proper, united action on the part of our people, Asheville will soon rejoice in the possession of ' additional railroad facili ties.

" ; A Useful Farm Scraper. ! - j - j . : i j Besides conducting with signal suc- cess the great interests of the First Na tional Bank of this city, President Breese is also something considerable of a farm-! er. The Democrat has already men-) tioned that from about three acres of land Capt. B. gathered the past season1 over 1800 bushels ofv elegant Irish pota toes. He immediately had the land thor oughly plowed and prepared, and sowed in grass, which is up and looking" beau ! tiful. But it is in regard to an imple ment used in the preparation of this; land, an invention of Capt. Breese'sJ which is the special object of this article.! It is a scraper, and as a scraper it is the; greatest success of the age. We cannot describe it exactly, but it is made of planks, with cross pieces upon which the driver stands, and by shifting posi tion the driver can run the scraper over any ordinary obstacle,j inclines, or n any way jthe shape of thb ground niay re quire! It is very ehieaply constructed, and.-is really a useful implement. Farm ers -yvould do well to call and examine this! scraper, forf it is one of the most useful implements a farmer can have. Free Mail Delivery. Wei are at last to have the free postal delivery for which we have been quali fied for several years indeed ever since the act was passed by a Democratic ad ministration giving it o towns of 10,000 inhabitants or 10,000 the office. We have both requirements. Our population is estimated at 12,000 and the gross receipts of the office are upwards of $13,000 per year. The lack of space and facilities for distribution in tlie old office pre vented its earlier introduction. There will be five letter carriers. . There will be three deliveries and rfve collections. The system will be in operation by the loth of January. Mr. Chas. R. Darby, Post Office Jnspector was in ' the city last week and made the necessary ar rangements.

Mr. Forshee announces that ma chines have been invented for stripping the stalk and manufacturing the fibre in to bagging, and that 4 the cost of the manufactured article will not be more than four cents per yard. One acre of cotton stalks will furnish fibre enough to make bagging enough to bale five bales of cotton, and as this is about five times as much as is needed the excess will be used in manufacturing rope and for various other uses! to which jute is now put.' " CHIEF JUSTICE Sal IT II DEAD. He; Passes Away After a Brief 111 riess Preceded by a Feebleness j f . I From Overwork. j . . f i Chief Uustiee Smith, of the State Su preme Court, died to-day at 12 o'clock ml For the past three days lie had been completely prostrated from a combina tion of heart trouble and overwork. For ten :days past he has been regularly at tending the sessions of the Supreme Court, but iwas compelled from weakness to recline in the court room nearly every day, anq was frequently compelled to go home before the sessions were over. On Monday of this week he became unable to attend the sessions, and has been pros trated at his residence on Halifax street ''.It I ' i ! ever since.

The i announce- close consideration, has received most It is imp6ssi: ble to overestimate the great value of this proposed line to all Western Caro lina and the South; the Baltimore press regarding it as one of the most important enterprises yet proposed. When com pleted it will make the hortest, most direct line from Boston, New York, Philadel phia and Baltimore to the South, opening up a country verv rich in timber1, min eral and agricultural resources, but little touched at present! The line is being carefully examinekl nowr by gentlemen of jthe amplest means, and Capt. A. is high ly encouraged to believe that matters will take tangible ! shape before verv ong.;. :l ' j: : j. .. ; ..:', On the! same evening another most teresting event occurred. It was presentation of a petition signed by, di rectors of the French Brcyid Valley Railroad iCompany, which proposes to construct a railroad from Asheville to the South Carolina, or Georgia j line through Transylvania county; also a pe tition by directors of the Asheville; and Bristol Railroad (Company, which pro poses to construct a road from Asheville directly north to Bristol, jTenn., there; to connect with the Norfolk and Western the Louisville and Nashville, and the Atlantic and Danville Railroads ; each petition praying that the question of subscribing .$50,000 to each of said! cor porations be submitted to the voters of Asheville.! The proposition is that no bonds shall be issued to either road until the same shall be completed, equipped and regularly running from Asheville to the limit of the line in Buncombe; work to be begun at Asheville i within a short while, and if not completed within twelvemonths to said Buncombe j limit to forfeit and pay to the city of Asheville f 5,000 cash, which sum is to be depos ited when i the bonds are voted, jj This certainly looks like business; the propo sition is backed by able, responsible men of New York and Asheville who ; say they mean business and a great deal of it. The city council . took the matter under advisement, to be decided at a spe cial meeting to be held Wednesday, ;20th insi. ' j J - ' j' These meetings and movements cer tainly indicate that Asheville and I Bun come are moving in the matter of more railroads and better road facilities. Our people cannot' move too earnestly j or promptly in these matters. The ; Lord helps those who help themselves. Let us all unite and strike while the iron; is hot. 1 ' '!

As j the report flew over the city, people' caught their breath, and it was some time before they could subju gate their wishes i and hopes to their knowledge. As sob made, ai n as 'the announcement was the State offices were closed, and the city hall bell was tolled for some time.
