A gentleman who returned this week from Asheville, North Carolina, brings us an interesting item : He was walking along one of the business streets in Ashe ville, when oneof the first objects that at tracted his attention was an enamel plate sign, in blue and white, bearing this legend: "Agency for Chase & San born's famous Boston coffees." This sign was at the store of A. D. Cooper, dealer in staple and fancy groceries, cor ner of Main and College streets. Mr. Cooper stated that the? sold a great deal of these celebrated coffees, and that they have customers who buy it, even if they have nothing else. This speaks highly (or the superior quality and high grades, so well nnd honorably main tained, of Chase & Sanborn'scoffces, and it is, moreover, a compliment to Boston which we cannot allow to pass unre corded.

P.ltoB AVtlllM Church street FROM CHARLES N. VANCE BE REPLIES TO A LETTER AND AK EDITORIAL.. laitmcais ControvertluK alHra. Vance's) Posltion-Ttae Senator Wlabed Rla lrat wife To Real B Hla aide. Two Letter. liiiiTOR Tub Citizrn: It is very pain ful to me to prolong the unfortunate controversy respecting the last resting place of my father. But, in justice to my brothers, myself and truth, I am compelled, in view ot the editorial and special correspondence from Washington, which appeared in the Charlotte Obser ver on Sunduy, the 17th inst., to ask you to publish the following reply : From the Observer editorial, I nin glad to know tbut 'for the present no lurtoer action will be tuken in the mat ter" of removal. I hope the remains will not again be disturbed. I do not believe it would be permitted by the citizens of Asheville, or even by the authorities of the Asheville cemetery company under the present conditions. The Observer editorial states, 1 presume by authority, that "Mis. Herndon, a sister of the late Senator, gave the lusiiutiiuiis iu nave itie ooav moved from the original place of barial to the higher lot which Mrs. Vance hud bought." This must lie erroneous, for wnen in Asnevine n lew (lavs neo. mv aunt, Mrs. Herndon, stated to me that Mrs. Vance had requested her to do so. but she declined and would have until ing to do with it. 1 am just this moment in receipt of a telegram from Mr9. Htrn don, saying she did not give the order tor tne removal. Again the Observer editorial states (I assume by authority): "She meaning mrs. vance naa stated to Mr. L'hm. N. Vance that she was willing, if he desired, that the bodv of his mother he placed bybislathcr'sside, etc." That this is also erroneous is most apparent from iuc luiiuwmg letter: imi juiissacnuseuf avenue. it is my intention to have mv husband's re mains removed from their present burial place to the circular lot No. US, in sec tion K, where I propose no other bodv snail ever be placed. Upon these condi turns alter the removal, 1 shall deed the lot to the State of North Carolina Mgncd, Horeuce S. Vance, May 20, Major I. W. Wilson of Mnr, N. C, has the original of this letter in the present Mrs. Vance's own hand writing and t hose doubtinc its a tit hemic. ity can satislv themselves bv reading it. The facts are these: Major Wilson came to Washington b remiest. ns on old and long time friend of my father and tne lamilv, to try to arrange this matter in private, but much to his disappoint ment and sorrow, ns well ns that of all others who kit an uflVetionule interest in the mattir, be tailed to do S'. The letter above eivcn was in renlv to : i tt. ' 1 .. . bus iviiuwuiK icucr. wnicn was written by me and address d to Mni or Wilsnn. at his request aad suggestion, alter he had a conli-rence with Mrs Vance. He was satisfied it would lie acceptable to her, but her letter in rcnly shows that he was mistaken. " Washington. D. C. Mav 2A. isu Mai. J. W. Wilson. Metropolitan lintel Washington, I). C. Dear Sir:-He, lying to your imiuirics concerning the removal of my father's remains, from where they now rest, to some other ulact in the cem etery at Asheville, I have this proposi tion to make; First, the lot to bes tcctcd shall be deeded to the State of North Carolina and held in trust by the State, for the se purposes onlv: First.to hold the remains of my father; second, to hold the remains of my mother; third, to hold remains ot my inlant brother Espy. No other person shall be buried therein. If these conditions are complied with, I have no objection to the reinterment ol my father in such lot as may be selected and conveyed us aforesuid. Further more there will be no objection to the erection of a monument to mv father's memory by his widow. Let the deed, il made, be made to you as trustee for I am satisfied you w'ill see to it that the agreement is carried out. Very truly yours, Chas. N. Vance." Now as to the "correspondence of the Observer" from Washington dated June U. The remains of mv mother have never been removed to the family plot in Riverside cemetery at Asheville, but my father had so frequently talked with me about it that I was confident it hud been done, and not until father's funeral day in Asheville did I learn to the contrary. His exact words to me when he first mentioned the matter of his own burial place were, "and I want your mother by my side." Those that knew him in lite will-know, without the telling, that this was his wish and earnest desire. My mother's remains u 7 be placed by his side at the first convenient opportunity. The place wbere they now rest is opcucd and exposed and the removal will be made as early as practicable. As to the statement that the sons were told by the present Mrs. Vance that their mother could be placed beside their father in the lot purchased by her, I affirm most positively and solemnly that no such offer was ever made to me; if it bad been this trouble would never have arisen; and if my brothers, Zcbulon and Thomas, have ever been informed it must have been since the removal was made by Mrs. Vance, and on a very recent date. I have a letter from the former of date June 4th, and up to that time Mrs. Vance had made him no lucb offer, and I have also from bim a telegram, dated 17th instant, fully endorsing my action on Sunday morning, the 10th instant, in replacing the remains in their original resting place. From my brother Thomab, I have beard through his wife by letter at late as May 30, and up to that time Mrs. Vance had given bim no such assur ance or offer, as she states. Neither one of them, to my knowledge, has ever been consulted about the matter, or in formed by Mrs. Vance that it was ber "intention" to make the removal. Iam in regular communication with them both and would most likely have been notified if any such proposition or con ftssk'U, had come to them. And besides, they have thus far endorsed and ap proved my every movement and action in this matter. The first attempt to remove was ordered without my knowledge or con scut, and agaimt my inotvo desire nud without, any notification whatever. 1 was advised from Asheville when Mrs. Vance first ordered the removal, and im mediately telegraphed that it mast not be made. The cemetery authorities recognised my right to have it stopped and assured my attorney nnd friend, COHTIMOSD OK SBCOMO fAOE.) THE NATIONAL COUNCIL.

It having been re ported in the newspapers that Mr, Gladstone bad again received an invita tion to visit the United States, the re. treat of the ex premier at Dollis Hill was besieged with reporters todav anxious to obtain information on the subiect They were informed that Mr. Gladstone had received no such information, and beyond what he had seen in the newspa pers knew of no movement in that direc tion. Mr. Gladstone said lie had. several years ago, declined an invitation to visit the United States for obvious reasons, the principal one of which was bis advanced age.
