There it no Aladdin Palnce with in gor
feoos surroundings to spring up in a
aixht.
Therefore, in speaking of the Vitnder
bilt enterprise one contemplates nothing
farther than notes and observations,
with no purpose, lecaBc with no ability
to forestall events. They will unfold
themselves under the silent, but sure,
touches of time.
Tb World Paya a Tribute.
There are two principal public thor-
s inrncled western worm Carolina.
Towards the south, all is gentle, peace
(ul and in charming color; the moun
tain's withdraw to a distance, leav
ing an open champaign country dot
ted with farms, until far away the scene is
closed with the haiv fronts and forms of
the Blue Ridge along the South Carolina
border. It is a mountain landscape, but
with all the softness and tenderness of a
dream of celestial beauty. The moun
tains have no terrors, no savngeaess; for
high up on their sides are seen farms and
orchards and vivid patches of green field
ofgrassorcorn, while to the very top
the forest stands in undiminished size and
vigor.
The Great House,
Such a tiicture as this may have is
counterparts in many a spot ia the West
ern North Carolina mountains. Such
are their characteristics. But the selec
tions of Mr. Vanderbilt. concentrate
more o( charm and variety than may be
attained elsewhere.

I fares so continuously trod us to prove
the intensity of interest to inspect what
already has such hold upon the curiosity
of visitors. There is another, a private
drive, the very perfection of road mak
ing, yet unfinished, and therefore not
-opened to travel. Tim Citizkx
followed one of those public ways return
ing bj the other; a ride altogether of
bout eight miles. Going nut, the road
leading to the Alexander bridge across
the French Broad, six miles above Ashe
ville, was taken. The introduction into
the Vanderbilt domain gives impressive
note of the immensity of nil its ora
tions and designs. At the foot of the hill
the north side of the Swanminun one
conies into the level, fertile sn ip of vnlley
which margins the river to the width ot
about three hundred yards. On lauds
once given to pasturage or to wheat
and other grains, is found the substitu
tion of a vast nursery for trees and
shrubbery; long lines of young American
rhododendron, transplanted. infant
this, great as it is, will be subordinate to
the great house which is to adjoin it on
the north. Work on that is begun. The
foundations are lieiiie laid over nn ex
tent of ground 375x191! feet. The foun
dation walls will lie run up to the height
of those of the lawn tennis court ; that is
forty feel; ol massive thickness, construc
ted of while Indiana sandstone. On this
will rise the dwelling 01 palace, lour
stories high. This will be built of the
same stone but dressed, and perhaps
with elaborate mouldings and carvings
But ol the nrehiteetuttl style, no one, not
concerned in the work, can penk. Thai
it will lie in the faithfully substantial
Vanderbilt style one mav lie certain;
that it will be in harmony with the sur
roundings may be hoped and believed.
The whole is on an esplanade "HOxSHO

the summit of the hill upon which the
buildings are being erected, nnd rilling
surrounding depressions until a perfect
level is attained. This esplanade is now

IT HAS BEES SUGGESTED :
That the authorities of the Western
North Carolina railroad would increase
the road's usefulness to the traveling
public by keeping good water there about
train time.
That the new 10 cent rate on the cars
is in the interest of some aristocratic peo
ple who do not like to ride with the
"poor folks."
That "not dictated" should be left off
in certain kinds of editorials.
That Chief McDowell's turkey story
was a pretty good one.
That there may be a fallingoff in travel
on some ol the street car lines tomorrow.
That Maj. D. C. Waddell is an expert
in the treatment of bores and cranks.
That it is good for the public that the

Crossing the river, another suggestion
f the wide scope of the work in hand is
made by an iron-shod tramway c i tend i
ing from the brick and tile works a
Biltmore to a hill on the French llroail,
a mile below, from which clav is dug for
the making of the articles named, l'ass
ing this the visitor is introduced plesanl- j
ly into theproperty. The road Ic.tding to
Alexander's bridge, meanders alum; the
sides of the hills overlooking the joint
Swannanoa and French Broad vallevs;
old farm lands, long given to grain and
now enriched, at present shorn ol their
coating; spread before the eye smooth
and verdant, a charming fore ground to
the green foothills across the river, anil
the blue mountain ranges that
look down upon them in the dis
tances. On the left are the lull
pastures green as the lowland meadows,
over which are browsing lazily docks of
highbred cattle.anothei suggestionoftlie
uses to be made of such cxieimve terri-1
tory. Farther on appear the large and
well ordered barns and stables, the
shapely water tanks, and the mighty
stacks of straw and bay, all in their size
and STSfm, a useful object lesson to our j
western fanners. Then one comes among
tbeoldfartnstcadsalongtjieroad, among .
the teeming orchards bending under .
loads of apples, or beginning to blush j
with their weight of riiiening ieaches, i
pretty pictures of rural lile which tasie
and art have touched to give a btighter
and tenderer coloring. A cb-irm un
known now-a-days to the city presents;
itself. We are beyond the detestable,
soagleas, bullying English sparrow; the
Cardinal Grosbeak flushes his brilliant
plumage across the road, and glows like
a ruby among th wayside foliage; and
songjjoceard fu many a day delights
'"tte car from many a native throat. !

There is little anticipates of what is
to meet the eye when coming in view ol !
where the Vanderbilt palace uplifts itself.
Suddenly a great mass of wull looms up
n an eminence to the left, in its!
height, and length and mussiveness,
overwhelming in its magnitude, it
crowns the apex of a height which

And Itiltmore is a very important fac
tor in the economics of the Vanderbilt
pnlace. Here all the material of every
kind needed in thewoik is received and
distributed. Here arc the tile nnd brick
works, in wliich nil the pipes for the
drainage of the extensive estate; all the
brick lor building and for culverts are
made. The many roads and drives
abound in these admirably madeculverts
which add a valuable feature to a coun
try in which road care and construction
is u despised, if not unkuown, art.

of the Asheville nnd Spartanburg road.
It is now a thriving little village, with
its company urlices, stores, railroad sta
tion, workshops, brick and tile woiks.
churclrand school houses; all under the
ownership an.lcontrol of Mr. Vanderbilt.
It inigbl be useiul to the curious public,
but it might also be impertinent in rela
tion to the party chiefly interested, to
sneak of the number of men employed,
and the amount of wages paid weekly.
It is enough to say that these are ver
large, and influential in the distribution
of much of comlorl to the peoplr of the
country.
A true picture of the Vanderbilt prop
erties cannot be painted lor some years
to come. Now the canvass, from the hand
of man, has only received its first rough
coating and its governing outlines. The
lime is coming when nothing in the
South, scarcely anything in the l.'mted j
States, will approach it in magnitude, I
grandeur and magnificence ot complete
