Of course our correspondent 1 reiunnsible only for what Is outl:l- of the brncVeta nnd 1'hk Citizbn only far what is inside of them. Editor tug Citizen: 1 have read with some care the bill known as "An Act to amend the charter ol the City of Ashe ville," and I think it objectionable in many particulars. Pint, It is class legis lation, not for the classes as agninst the masses, but vice-versa, and the truth ol the business is that there has been such a hue and crv against class legislation that things have gone to the opposite extreme, like "the erect Indian, so Btrnight that he leans awny back!" The advocates of the bill say: "It is not forced upon you; you can vote it or not, as you like." Let's see how that is. What proportion of the voters of Ashe ville are property-owners that will be effected by thisburdensomctnx? I hardly think one-third; then there are two-thirds torenpthe benefit, jn oneway oranother, n goodly number only In getting work, it theimprovementsare made, and not hav ing to pay a cent of course vote "ap proval," ami the one-third are left in a , woeful minority. This part ol it is but a I farce, only a pretence of fairness. Hut they nv after the hill is passed upon that ' then it is only put in operation where a majority ask lor it. We can find no such provision in the bill. Ei. Citizkn. ! )oes not the same trouble come in here? Is it not likely that the same uronortion against property owners would lie petitioners ?

San Francisco, Cal., March an. Al fred and Frederick Lee, hardwarcdealers, arrived here yesterday from Valpniruso, Chili, having left Chili because of the war. . When the Lee brothers left Ynlpnirnso the inhabitants were, they say, expecting bombardment at uny moment. The city was in nn uproar and all business wns suspended. No one dared to ex press nn opinion, and men sus pected ol sympathy with the in surgents were thrown into prison by the hundreds. The newspaper' were watched nnd nothing against Bulmeccdu was allowed to be published. The tele graph and cable lines were seized by the government to prevent the facts leaking out. The vessel on which the Lee's came was the last sailing vessel to leave the harbor, and then it got away only bv bribing the naval officers. A I.ITTI.K BlTl'R HUN. NINETEEN LOOT.

Spray, Superintendent of the Cherokee Indian Training School, may not lie understood, in view of the recent printed testimonials ing 8 to tne excellency ot the school, and the n:.. r.i. i vmi.Clltjr Ul inc BUH:rillLCIllCllt, 1 WISH lO RCfi Af'i h ii ' V present two pictures in striking contrast "t'' 9 1". H and leave the conclusion to the renders. When Mr. Itrown, the predecessor ol I Spoil W t' , , f . . . . ., I ;wr. ,-ipray, nail Charge oi tile school, tile eastern band of Cherokees were torn by foi' 2! no tlissensions, but were united, oeaccful ... i ii i nnd happy in tlieirrelntionstothesclioul. "011 IC'l' The children were better taught than under the present regime nnd were being developed morally as well as intellectually, besides being instructed in those accomplishments that go to make up ladies and gentlemen. Not only the children but the entire band of Cherokee Indians hail the advan tage of religious instruction by ministers ol Cod and all met in their placcsof wor ship on n fraternal and devotional basis. All parents were anxious to give their ciiiiiircn mc ucneni oi an condition pro vided by the government, the want ol which they so sadly felt. Hut, let us pre sent the other picture and witness the contrast. Grant, for the sake of argument, thnt the school iiroocr is conducted as well as formerly, will this com)eiisate us lor the trouble and bad lilood engendered by the present stiiwrin tendent? Hut this is not the case for sev- eral instances bave come under my im mediate observation in which pupils were chastised so brutally as to cause a faint ing spell and result in their leaving the school, and this punishment was for triv ial offenses. No longer is the humble minister's voice heard among the Chero kees offering the terms ol salvation, ex cept bv our native preachers! No united imiiu can gather at the divine altar! lor insults have driven nwuv the ministers and bad advice has divided the hither to peacelal worshijwrs, So terrible has been this division that an open outbreak, between the tactions have at tunes Ir-cii imminent. A por tion of the parents no longer led willing to have the minds of their children in fused with a spirit of disrespect mid dis obedience and hence the school is nut ful filling the functions it was created to per form. These dissensions are traceable directly to the policy of this sueriiitcnd ent, whose removal (in tlieopinion of the gentleman who wrote tiic above men tioned testimonials) would be regarded "as a most serious blow to the institu tion." In view of these facts 1 wish to submit u lew propositions: 1-irst. is lie the "right mail lor the place" who has caused tlissensions where none before existed ? Second. Is it the policy of the govern ment to divide ou: band into factions, thereby rendering them less tit to attain the true standard of citizenship nnd ad vance in the arts of civilization ? Third. Is it the correct policy to de prive the Indians of that spiritual coun sel they have been receiving for many years ? l-ourth. Can this school ierform its legitimate Inactions in developing, not only the pupils, nut the entile band, morally and intellectually, if a majority of the band have no rescct for its head .' rum. As it lias been demonstrated mat the proer man will have no oppo sition, liul the heartiest suiuiort in the conduct of the school, why is it that this agitator anil stirrer tipot stnle isallowed to retain his present responsible position to the detriment of the entire Hand ol Cherokee Indians? Sixth. Is it not true that the majority of crimes committed by Indians resulted cither directly or indirectly from bad white men ? Ami is not our prcscntstate oi division an illustration ol this truth r Yours truly, .V. .Smith.
