YV do not propose to "waste our sweetness upon the desert air," nor to weary our readers hj an expression of our views on matters of which we art not thoroughly advised, and in pursu ant of thii determination, we refrained from expressing oar opinion on the sub ject treated by Mr. Pearson in his letter published in our columns on Sunday morning. We have not yet been able to procure ' a copy of the election law pasted by the late session of the Legislature, and are entirely in the dark as to its provisions. Under these circumstances, we deemed it best to say nothing' until after reading the bill, so that we might present our opinions intelligently. Weerengo farther than this: When any law is enacted we think it best to advise all our people o try it fairly and patiently, hoping that its results may be all that Ks advocates may expect Such a fair and impartial trial cannot be awarded to any taw that is continually being criticized by the press. For this reason we regret the position assumed by Mr. Pearson. Since Mr. Pearson has given one side of thia question, we are glad to give the opposite as expressed by the Raleigh correspondent of the New York Herald, with whom we agree that there is more fuss made over this matter than it de serves. We know the people of North Carolina so well as to be certain that they win have none but a fair election, and If this law does not secure this end the next Legislature will give them one that wilt But we sec no rrason why this law will not do so if honestly administered a we expect it to be. Therefore, we ad vise an to keep quiet until it is thorough ly tested. WHO ARK THE rKAl'MT At the Inst election the Slate of West Virginia voted for ft Governor to succeed the present incumbent, Governor Wilson The State was flooded with Republican boodle and the cry went out that the g o. p. was certain to carry the Stat on the protection Issue, When the smoke of battle had cleared away it was found to have been a false cry and that tbe Repub licans had met with an ignominious de feat. Then it was that the Dudley cry of fraud, fraud was sent out in the vain hope of accomplishing by secret trickery what they had failed to couipassby open fraud and boodle. In vain did they strug gle and hope to gain fur their party a United States Senator, but the masterful Kenaa outwitted them at every turn and after a long and bitter contest was elect ed to a second term. Then came a con test for two seats in Congress, but certifi cates to these were finally given to the Democrats to whom they rightfully be longed. Still undaunted, they inaugu rated a contest for the Governorship in favor of Gen. Goff, their nomines. The contest is waged on the technicality of certain election returns.- The constitu tion of tbe State provides that the Legis lature shall declare the Governor elected this the last legislature failed todo before its adjournment and tbe supreme court of tbe State decided that in such a case the acting Governor should hold over- No sooner was this fiat sent forth than the whole Republican press of the luiul belched forth in tbe most violent abuse of tbe Democratic party in State and m tioo. Tbey accused Governor Wilson of being an usurw- They said that as the legislature would not meet again in two years it was an open and concocted plot to defeat tbe will of the people expressed at the ballot box, Hah! with all such gush. What are the facts? Governor Wilson has acted the part ofa brave, frark-ss and impartial execu tive. He demanded his own and bis par ty's rights. He did not propose to be hulldoscd or scured by the boodlers but rather those to have everything settled peaceably and according to lsw. He dots not want to occupy an office to which tbe people have not elected him, snd consequently has called an extraor dinary session of tbe kibluturc to con vent on June 1, aud settle the contested, tOTBr;p.

I" TRICK. jTlx annual recurrwrt of Si. Patrick's r r . , iy is 4n ey,ent loot. J forward to with uiucn j sunjy every aescenuant oi in Emerald Isle. The anniversary of tbe patron saint falling this year ujxn Sun day allowed the celebrations of tbe day to be held either on Saturday or Monday evenings. I'ossiuiy never ueiore was there so much interest taken in celebrat ing tbe anniversary as there was this year. It was not confined alone to those of Irish birth but many distin guished Americans joined in the ora tory and good cheer of the various fes tivities. This increasing interest in the celebra tion is occasioned largely by the present and recent condition of affairs in Ireland as regards Home Rule, and above all, by tbe manly and complete vindication from all suspicion of dishonor of their great leader, Charles Stuart Parnell. When we see such representative Ameri cans as ex-President Grover Cleveland, Charles A. Dana, Roswcll P. Flower Samuel J. Randall, S. S. Cox, Mayor Grant, John R. Fellows, Judge Daly and Congressman John S. Wise, of Virginia, taking part in the exercises it shows a patriotism and interest, in the cause rarely equaled. The Ancient Order of Hibernians, for the first in its history, omitted their parade in New" York city and held a lecture and entertainment in Steinway Hall, which was presided over by Cbas A. Dna, the proceeds to be ap plied to the Parnell Defence Fund. Otlier similar entertainments were held for a like purpose. Tbe society of the "Friendly Sons of St. Patrick" celebratedlhe day as well as Old Erin's glorious post and pro phetic future with a dinner at Delmon ico's. It was largely attended and many able addresses were delivered. Ex-Presi dent Cleveland replied to the toast, "The United States." Mr. Cleveland said that the toast to which be was to mxnd suggested a broad and hospitable country which opens its gates to the people of all na tions who are willing to assume the du cics of American citizenship in exchange for a share of tbe blessings which God has in store for the American people. "Nor," continued he,, "can it be said that in national selfishness and sordid complacency our cnuutry is blind to the welfare of others. Wherever there exists a struggle for freer government and for man's enfranchisement there will be found the aid and sympathy of theieopleof the United States. In this we but follow the promptings which our free condition in spires and acknowledge the contribution which we have received from the sturdy men of other lands to our population and to element of our greatness. "In this reunion of your ancient and honorable society, reminding us of such contribution, and where the value of American citizenship is fully acknowl edged, it is in every way fitting and proper that we should mention with love and with loyalty the 'The United States, "We should not be content with vener ation for those who mode us a nation nor with the sacred and grateful remembrance of those who shed their blood and gave their lives for its perpetuation. We, too owe a duty to the United States. We can, at least, teach fraternity and tolera tion, the sure foundations of our unity and of our country's life. If these lessons are firmly established in tbe heartsof our countrymen we shall to the extent that we aid in this consummation perform the duty required of us in our day and gen nation. "Let as then cultivute real and genuine generosity and fraternal kindness among alt our people. Let us resolve that no partisan exigency shall excuse the crea tion or keeping alive of irritation and jealousy among people nil charged with the safety, the development and the tri umph of American institutions. "In this assemblage, where so large a representation i found of the race which, in all stages of our national life, hasdone so much to make our country gieat, and whose hearts at this time turn lovingly to their brethren who struggle for the blessings which are here enjoyed, I know that reference to any element of our free dom and happiness wilt meet with a heartfelt response. "Here, regurdlcss of place of birth or of former ulltgiuiice, we meet as American citizens, proud of our country, devoted to her interests and prosperity, and wishing with enthusiasm fur those less favored, the happiness, th freedom, the strength and the pruce which are found in 'The United States."' 1.KT I'M HAVIC I'HAt 1.. This srem n he the prevailing senti ment of the three powers interested America, England and Germany, as re gards the present condition mul settle ment of the Sumoau cnibrogluw Tlie fierce talk of war so niiH-K indulged inn few weeks ago, is fust dying out, ami in its pluce is heard nothing but the sweet murmur of peace. The German authori ties both consular and naval stationed at Samoa, have become less Bismurckiun, less dictatorial towards the representa tives of other nations at that port, and everything tends towards the gnat nl peu.. Tbe appointment of Messrs. V ilium Walter I hclpt, John A. Kasson aud George 11, Bate as American representa tives in tbe conference on Sumoan affairs toon to be held at Berlin, Germany, meets with genera) approval. Tbe gen tlemen named are representative Ameri cana said VmU informed upon foreign aiTuirs. They will uphold the integrity and demand the rights of our govern ment, and at tbe same time generously grant to the other powers a bke recog nition. Outside of a few commercial questions which have been greatly exaggerated, no formidable difficulties are likely to come before the conference. Prince Bismarck, while perhaps always a little over ag gressive is too shrewd a diplomat and is too well informed upon the present state of European affairs to let his nation come to blows over the matter. It is believed that much of the bitter ness and ill-feeling that has gone abroad was engendered by the officious ncs of tbe under German officials. A peaceful solution of the problem is expected at the hands of the three powers soon to be in conference at Berlin. NEW YORK COOLED DO'iYN, -BL'T- Asheville in a Flutter. BOSTICBHOS.&WRIOUT have this day put down their all wool (filling) "Henriettas to 18 cents ier yard. These goods are double width and ai-e warranted to "wear well, turn water and never flop." They have this week received the prettiest stock of goods ever seen in thin market, and it will pay you to go through their, store and see their stock. Nothing like it was ever seen in Asheville before. These goods were not bought AT AUCTION, But bought regular from the best trade of New York City, for the very . best trade of Buncombe, and will be sold at "mud-sill prices." They claim, (and justly, too, we think), that, owing to the fact that they buy for cash and sell for cash, they can and will offer you inducements that will make it to your in terest to bny of them. One thing sure, they have certain ly got the goods and we would advise you to go and see them, for whether you buy or not the display they make is well wort h your seeing and will more than pay you for the trouble of going, for it does stem to us that new goods this Spring are prettier and cheaper than ever before and any one, no matter how poor, 'can look well in a pret ty 8 cents Challie, a 7 cents Gingham or a 10 cents Sat- in.
