THE SHOE STORE, WEAYER & MYERS, 30 rattnn Avenue. Ashtville, N. C. FOUR HUNDRED YEARS AGO A GHKAT DAY FOR COI.l'HIllS 4ND NEW VIIKK, The Anulvernary Day Proper Ih Celebrated With All romp a art Ceremouy and lu a Highly Hue ceHHtut Way, New York, Oct. 12. Today was Col umbus anniversary day proper. It is a Co'umbus legal holiday, ami one thai will long be remembered. With the ris ing of the sun, there were rims firing at the Battery and other points of the city. Flat's were hoisted nt the Battery and at Old Fort, in Central park. Church bells were rung, and it was more like an old fashioned Fourth of July, than any thiug ever seen in New York. The military parade started soon after 10 o'clock, under command of Gen. Mar tin McMahon. The line of march was from tlie Mattery up Broadway to Fourth street, around Washington Square to Filth avenue, thence to Four teenth street, to Fourth avenue, to Seventeenth street, to Filth avenue, and at Fifty-ninth street the signal was given to disband. It is estimated over 35,000 men were in line, and it was the greatest military parade ever witnessed in America, soldiers of all sorts par iicipaicn. uver ti.uuo militia men from neighboring States were in line There was a regiment of cavalry and Indian soldiers, and thcO. A. R. sent thousands of men. i ne Atlanta uate utv Ir.mrds were as bright a bndyofsoldiirs as one would wish to sec. 1 hey have been havinir a splendid time and made themselves prime favorites as gentlemen. I nere was not standing room any where on the line of march and fabulous prices were paid for window and bulconv scats. The militia came in bv thousands from the adjacent states and five compa nies were in unnorm. a pretty sight was the landing of IllKi men from the warships, w ho participated in the pi radc together with two thousand reg ular soldiers, West Point cadet. Failed States urtillcy, New York Naval Bri gade, and the Slate guard. The weather was fine the decorations profuse and beautiful and everything tended to make the Columbus military parade a grand success. Madrid, Oct. 12 Columbus fcstivi tives began tins morning. The city i bcntitilullv decorated; American tl igs arc conspicuous, Iiaily mass in honor ol Columbus, in all the churclus was at tended by immense throngs. A monstet procession of professors ai d students I the Spanish University iit tired in gui mediii'valcosiumes, and carrying ancient standards, marched through the princi pal streets. ON IO I'Ol.K. Crawford Han A routed I hi- nemo cratH In Rnilierlorfl, Ayr, Rutherlord Co., Oct. 10. If you want to know what genuine hospitality is, just stop with Frank Reynolds, as we are tonight, and you will know the full meaning of the word. If there are two people in North Carolina who have larger hearts than Mr. Reynolds and his good wife, I have never found them. At Utter Creek today a splcndidcrowd met us, numbering between three and four hundred. No such congregation of citizens has assembled there for ten years. And Crawford gave tlie people the facts ol thecampaignred hot, 1'rilcliard is really getting ashamed of the beggarly way in which he is forced to conduct his canvass, lie was pressed so hard today that he declared there was at the present time one hundred and twenty-nine mil lions of dollars surplus in the 1'nited States treasury. Whether he made the statement because of his own ignorance, or because he thought Crawford was ignorant, I am not certain, but 1 know that he looked sick when Crawford showed the crowd how he was endeav oring to deceive them, l'ritchard had to count the gold reserve for the redemp- . : i' . i . . . . i! . , , iion oi me outstanding gieenoncKs, mat he ought to know no honest administra tion would touch, before he made his surplus visible, but he was bound to say something to try and break the force of Crawford's showing as to the Republican management ol the governments finances. There are no more fluid nartv oeoule to talk to now, and Crawford devotes ins attention to l'ritchard, and leaves Brother Brown to saw the nir us lu pleases. This is what caused l'ritchard to dump the reserve into the treasury and make a surplus. l lie campaign in Rutherford is now wound up. Tomorrow we move into Folk. There is no doubL about this county being in fine shape. Crawford has en thused the Democrats at every point, and they are thoroughly aroused and at worn. The county fair meets at Rothcrfordton on Wednesday, and there will be n lame crowd in attendance from every portion of tlie county. On imirsdav Senator Ransom will speak at the lair grounds. and his magnificent presen ntion of the issues is about all that could be added to what has already been done in Ruth erford. You can rely upon good news from Rutherford on the 8th. First frost fell here this morning, mid the leaves look as sick as radicals when Crawford is talking. J. P. K. For Curbett ami JackHon.
