Fashions Fantasies,

With all the qualities of beautiful col
ored materials for dresses, nothing can
equal the beauty and daintiness of hand
some black silk. This year the silks are
so perfect in finish, so soft and uncrump-
ly, as never before. With the inimitable
drapery of Worth & Heutenaar and the
trimmings Of beautiful jet, prssementerie
OF old gold beading, these dresses are alb
solutely perfect for rich carriage costumes
The fanciful mantles and mantillas to
match, with the tilmy masses of lace and
the glittering beading, are crowned and
completed by the straw bonnets shot with
golden threads, and have the fine feather
so delicately powdered with gold as to
have only suspicion created, which,
however, completely carries out the gen
eral idea. Not only for carriage dresses
are black silks pretty. Some of the
street costumes in it are absolutely so
cheap as to make one ask twice that the
price be given. One in two pieces, a
tight fitting coat and skirt we'll draped
were trimmed with silver-white and
black-strlped pekin. The effect was
novel and very odd. The lower flounce
had regular stripes of woolly black and
white, broad revers of it, and vest and
cording of similar kind. It was pretty
and stylish, and cost $35.
A coarse silk netting, like white seine
is being used with great effect. The dress
is made in black silk. The trimmings
are of some high color in rather wide satin
ribbon. Sometimes two colors are used
such as poppy and gold satin. Over this
is loosely draped this fsh-net, and ther
the impression given is of iridescence

Nay, speak no i'll! Il kindly word,
Can never leave a sting behind,
And, OH to breathe each tale we've hear'
Is far beneath noble mind.
Full Of better seed is sown
BY choosing thus the kinder plan;
For if but little good be known.
Still let us speak the best we can.
Give me the heart that fam would hide
Would fain another's fault ctface;
How can it pleasure human pride
To prove humanity but base?
No: let us reach a higher mood,
\ nObler estimate of mau;
Be earnest in the search for good,
And speek of all the best we can.
Then speak no ill---but lenient be
To others failings as your own;
II you're the first a fault to see,
Be not the first to make it known;
For life is but passing day,
No lip may tell how brief its span;
Then, oh! the little time we stay,
Let's speak of all the best we can.

AS Saint Peter sat at heavens gate,
A maiden sought permission,
And begged Of him, if not too late,
To give her an admission
What claim hast thou to enter here:"
He cried with sterncst men.

And the gate wide open threw:
That is the age when every maid
Is girl and angel too"

= A Worthy ENTERPRISE.

The citizens of the Fork township con.
template the erection of an Academy for
the purpose Of giving them better educa-
tional advantages in their own midst, which
is to be secured for ten years by bonded
subscription of ten thousand dollars, to be
paid in installments of ten per cent. annual-
ly, thus giving them one thousand dollars
q year in addition to the common school
allowance. This is q progressive move
ment, and is worthy of the best success.
A meeting of the citizens of the Fork
township will be held at Townville on the
third Saturday in this month to consider
this enterprise, and will be addressed by
several speakers in advocacy of its consum.
nation. Every lady and gentleman in the
whole township is earnestly urged to be
present at this meeting.

Railroad Meeting at Pisgah Church.
PrsGAu CHURCH. Sent. 2s. 1s

PIsGAH CHURCH, Sept. 26, 1879.
Although there were but few persons pres
ent, yet. the meeting at Pisgah was decided
success. The meeting was organized by
calling Noah Reeves to the chair, and ap-
pointing t. H. Russell secretary.
On motion, DR.. w. G. Brown was asked
to explain the action of the Board of Direc-
tors in postponing the elections ordered for
the 30th to some future period, and the
reasons therefor, which he did in very
clear and satisfactory manner, after which
President Latimer was called for, and re-
sponded in very happy style, He re-
counted the difficulties which had to be
overcome in the first inception of the enter
after perseyering effort, had been overcome
by hearty endorsement of the Road at the
ballot box by the people. That said Com
pany looked to the projected Road from
Bolton to Asheyille as one of the most i'm
portant enterprises of the kind ever inau-
gurated in the State; that competing roads
were necessary to keep down freights and
other eXtortions, and gave many cogent
reasons why the people should extend the
aid asked for in the prosecution Of the en-
terprise.
Col. Latimer was followed by Col. James
Brown, of Canton, Ca, who unclaimed the
audience Tor an hour in one of tlie most
powerful and eloquent railroad speeches to
which we have ever listened. Col. Brown
is native of this State, and received part
of his early education in Anderson County
and naturally feels deep interest in our
prosperity.
He was followed by Mr.. NJ. 3. Williams
who said he was in favor of the Road if il
, went to Anderson; not much in favor oi
taxation, but was open to conviction; that
We ought to raise our supplies instead oi
importing them, and made some happy
hits at our present system of agriculture.
Col Pickens closed the proceedings by q
brlef recital of the meeting at Brevard, and
saio in conclusion that he earnestly hoped
the Road might be completed in his life
time. That no better earthly inheritance
| could be left his children than that, and
that the small tax asked for from each ono
to prosecute the work was Insignificant in
comparison with the benefits TO be derived
Meeting then adjourned.

CINDERELLA LAST NIGHT.-It would be q
difficult matter 10 recall the occasion when
there was a more elegant audience at the
Theatre than the one which graced that
building last night. To say that the house
was packed would give but Il fair idea OF
the size OF the assemblagc. Even the family
circle was filled wellnigh to its utmost
capacity, while in the dress-circ.e and par
uuet the aisles were occupied.
The opera, OF which so much has already
been written, went off splcndtdly, ana
everybody seemed delighted at the result.
The participants were much more at home
than even ut the second performance, ana
were well up in their stage business.
One OF the most striking features OF tile
entertainment was the elegant costumcry
and fine snectacular exhibition. We have
not seen upon our boards more gorgeous
costumes for many day; but that fact IS
not surprising when it is known that tie
ladies have not been at all sparing in their
outlay for the opera. the t5al expense OF
which will amount to about 81 800. Ihelr
receipts have been I'VE supposc) apout
$4,000, so the net result will foot up 81, SOC
a SUM which will no doubt be iudiclously
invested.
Tue ladies and gentlemen and the bright
little girls and boys who have taken part IN
the opera are all entitled to the thanks OF
their patrons for the charming entertain
ment they have afforded. not forgetting the
enterprsing and determined manager OF
the whole affair, as we'll as the ladies OF the

gragase on street-corners in the afternoon,
and spring over the ratings into front

"sbeer wanton mischief" destroy flowers

down others with their knives. 1t would

these trespaSserS. A severe example will
