Ton FERGusoN Con- ERATEae.
Our esteemed friend Tom Ferguson Of
Sandy Mush, has been a Seeker" for
some time, and has been the subject OF
the serious solicitude of his many friends
in his township. OF late he has been
going out to the mountains, and COM
muncing with nature, and, it is hoped,
earnestly and honestly prayed for COM
fort and consolation. During these re-
cent visits to the mountain, while alone
and undisturbed by the wicked things of
their life, he combined business with
other matters, and repaired his fences
around his excellent pastures, and plac-
ed therein his fine cattle and other stock.
Some days ago he again sought the
mountain Businesses and his hocks, still
anxiously enquiring after the right, and
asking for revelation, when 10 +! it come:
when in sight of his pasture and his
flock, which he had but a few days be-
fore SO securely fenced in, his eyes be-
held numerous cattle, and sheep and
hogs-tares evidently turned loose by
the wicked to swallow up the crops of
the hard-working husband man, making
havoc with the work of his hands. He
raised his voice in one long-loud, happy
shout. The revelation he had sought
was now vouchsafed unto him, and he
exclaimed. in words more expressive
than pious, IF this don't convert man
then DIN me- He referred to the No
Fence law, aud since then he has been
constant and happy in urging the i'm
portance of that new system. Crops
when well fenced in are not safe against
the stock allowed to roam at large, and
the only thing that will Gave crops, and
much labor and expense is the No-Fence
law. Tom is solid now.

Carr. 7. W. PATTON.

CAPT. I. w. Parton.
The suggestion that was made by tWo
citizens relative to the propriety of the ap-
.pointment of the above gentleman to be
city tax collector seems to meet with oppo-
sition. In justice to Capt. P. the sugges-
tion was made without his knowledge, his
first intimation Of it being upon reading it
in the CITIZEN. We do not know that he
even desires the place. However, it is
strange that an officer is held up to public
derision and official ostracism for doing
only what the law and his oath require him
todo. There is not word of truth in the
statement that Capt. sPatton has oppressed
anybody. He has been as lenient as the
law would permit; may be he has felt com
strained to compel from some what ninety
odd per cent. of others voluntarily did
a payment of their dues as required, not by
himself but by law. His record as an of
fetal is creditable to him and to the good
character of Buncombe county.

and working all the time. The CITIZEN
has had bitter causes of complaint at
the irregurity ofthe mails, their absolute
uncertainty and.their miserable connec-

ties have had even more cause to COM
plain than we. The remedy is in view.
Under the earnest, persistent energy of
Mr.. Johnston, steps have been taken to
secure mail connections at Tunnel

at Charleston for Robbinsville. Those
who have suffered as we and our west
ern friends have, will know how to ap-
preciate this great fortune.

THE president will be absent from the
seat Of government the whole of the
month of August. lie will betake him
self to the north woods of New York
and will not take the shop with him. He
will leave it all behind. lie will go equip
ped for securing for himself tho greatest
amount of recreation and rest. 1t will go
hard with the office seeker who obtrudes
into his seclusion. Certain members of
the cabinet will probably join him there
Tor a time, and there will be II company
Of chosen friends to help him to get the
most out Of the campaign.
Before the president departs he will
clear the desks Of the executive mansion
of a large number Of appointments which
have been pending for some time, and
which have been anxiously anticipated by
the Interested parties with most becoming
patience. 1t is never quite safe, however,
to say what the presidents appointments
will be. Nothing is ever settled about
these things until he has acted. In
speaking OF the rest he expects to obtain,
the president, with grim humor, says he
hopes the Office seekers and their friends
will also improve the opportunity. To
tell the truth, he likes the vacation partly
on their account, for, while on his own
part the last four months have been a
