Thi Workman mentioned the fact a short time since that an artist was on a visit here for the purpose of making a birds-eye picture of the city, which, when completed, would show as if the beholder were on some elevated point the entire city and its environs, its buildings, its streets, its railroads and its factories, with the topography far and near, and yesterday we were shown by Mr. Stoner, the canvassing agent, the picture in Iudia ink as it will ap pear when lithographed and it will be lithographed provided 150 subscribers can-be obtained for the picture. The examination which we have been able to make ot the picture leaves a favorable impression. The 'work seems to have been well done, and the birds-eye view is the only one by which the whole of any town or city can be brought into sight at one time; enab ling any citizen in a few moments to recognize his own dwelling and the streets leading to it A picture in this style must afford entertainment to those who are so tat tunate as to possess it, while at the same time it will serve as an advertis ing medium, conveying to the people at a distance such a knowledge of the city's appearance as could be conveyed in no other way. , , Such a picture framed would be a handsome ornament, and one much to be desired, and we doubt if any medi um for a' permanent advertisement of the city could equal it Gobi te Morgaatoa. A special legislative committee, con sisting of Senators Rose of Johnston and Reid of McDowell, and Repre sentatives Foust of Chatham and iW man of Cabarrus, accompanied by Prof. E. McK. Goodwin of the Deaf and Dumb and the Blind Asylum of Raleigh, passed through this city this morning on their way to Morganton to inspect the advantages., offered the State Legislature in the site and funds proposed to be donated for an asylum for the Deaf and Dumb of the. State. Morganton proposes to donate $5,000 in money, and a site valued at $7,000. The committee aim to investigate and return to Raleigh in time to report on Monday to the Legislature. , It might be said here that Greens. boro would have been a capital place for the asylum which is to be built, but we do not learn that any serious efforts have been made to brjng the asylum here.
