THE FIRST DIRT " THROWN IN Bun
coMBE-We have the pleasure of announc-
ing that our friend, Dr. Mcdowell, one of
the contractors on the Eastern Division of
the W. n. G. r. r.. threw the first dirt ="
on this side of the Mountain on Wednesday,
the 31st day of December last, and that
other contractors are preparing to COM
mence work on the road in Buncombe Coun-
ty i'll a few days. While we are delighted
with this progress. we must not forget that
before any work, on this side of the Noun
tain, can be made available, the slow pro-
cess of tunnelling the Blue Ridge Noun
tains must lie completed, which cannot be
accomplished in less than three years.
Alter about 33 years of expectancy, the peo-
pie west of the Blue Ridge have the salts
faction OF seeing some tangible evidence
that we may expect railroad in Buncombe
County at some future day.
We are further gratified to hear that it is
expected the road will be in running order
to Marion, in Mcdowell county, by the
middle oil June next-AsheiiLle Neos.

FATAL SHOOTING AFFAIR IN GREENvI1LE.
The municipal contest in Greenvile, Pitt
county, has resulted most fatally To one of
parties concerned.
On Thursday last, says the Tarhoro' South
erner, the two opposing candidates for the
office OF Town constable, MIR. Edward Hoel
and Arthur Dennis became involved in a
difficulty, whereby the former met his death.
The facts of the unfortunate affair 50 far as
we have been able to ascertain, are as fol-
lows:
The parties had some controversy in which
violent words were used towards each other
and knife was drawn by Hocl. They then
separated, Hoel going into store near by.
About half an hour after, while Hoel was
in the store as stated, in search of gun, he
was fired upon 10y Dennis, the first shot ia
king effect in the leg of a Mr.. Harriss who
was standing by.
The second shot was more fatal in its eff
fects, striking Hoel in the side and causing
death in about thirty minutes.

The FINANcEs-A REPUBLICAN CAUCUS.
A very important caucus of Republican
Senators was held yesterday morning in the
ladies' reeeption-ronm, some forty being
present. Senator Anthony presided, and the
financial question, to discuss which the eau
Gus was held, was at once taken hold Of
Senator Morton's bill was very freely COM
mented upon, and apparently met with favor,
though no positive expressions were made
upon it. Senator Edmunds's resolution to
pay the principal and interest of the 5-a0's
IL. gold was simply adverted to, not meet
ing with any favor, and will undoubtedly he
defeated. The conference lasted over IN
hour, number of the senators expressing
views much at variance, and no definite
conclusion was arrived at. The caucns adj
journcd without any settled policy upon the
question, and it may he that another will be
held at no remote period, as the senators are
generally favorable to some positive action
being taken at an early day Washington

Idleness seems to be responsible for most
of the Ills of humanity. Labor was wise
provision, intended to be absorbing enough
to leave no time for discomfort or repining.
Whatever work we have to do, whether it
may be congenial or not, if we thoroughly
and Systematically execute it, brings sure
compensation in the sense of completeness.
The hurt comes in failing to accomplish so
many things commenced with faith and en-
thusiasm. Tie words swell done good and
faithful servant" seem never applicable in
failures.

Gen. Grant-His Opinion freely stated
Small Comfort for Conservatives.

ST. LOUIS. Dec 3O-A prominent citizen
of this city, just from Washington, Describes
a half hour interview with Gen. Grant.
which shows some of the characteristics of
the President elect in stronger light than
anything that has been said or written in
long time. During the conversation SEN
ator and Judge from Louisiana were intro
duced, who came to consult with the Gen
eral in regard to the Government endorsing
some State bonds for the improvement of
the levees in Louisiana.
The General said lie hoped the Govern
ment would not do it, and added "while
we are discussing on all sides how the ma
tional debt is to be paid, l shall oppose any
increase of the national obligations. Inever
knew government to become responsible
for any amount that it did not ultimately
have to to pay"
After some further remarks designed to
win the Generals favor, the Judge said
millions OF acres of the best land in the
world are subject to overflow
Gen. Grant replied: Let them overflow
and let them stay under water until their
owners are willing that Northern men and
Northern capital should come in and pro-
tect and improve them. Northern men
with ample capital are ready to make
garden of your State, and you won't let
them do it. Your large land holders are as
hostile to the United States Government
to-day as they have ever been, and if that
Government should rebuild their levees, it
would not change them particle. I know
no way the Government could have adopted
for rebuilding the levees but to have con-
fScated the land of those engaged in the
rebellion, and used the proceeds to restore
the country. As that was not done, nothing
remains but to set your negroes to work
and invite in and welcome Northern men,"
General" said the Judge, "the negroes
won't work"
won't work." Gen. Grant quietly replied;
"they'll work if you'll pay them for it. Am
l not right9" He added: us there not such
hostility to Northern men that it amounts,
in most sections of the State, to practical
exclusion of them from the agricultural
interest of the country? Is there not an I'M
willingness to divide up the lands and sell
in small parcels to those who might immi-
gratea And is there not a general tendency
to secure the services of the negroes without
prompt, adequate compensation ?"
81 must say" said the Judge, shat there
is more or less truth in all these points,"
Then" said Grant, Il think you will
have to build your own levees or wait under
water until you are willing men should
come in who will build them"
