WORTHY THE ATTENTION OF THE
HOSPITAL MANAGERS.

Messrs Editors:-I want to call the
attention of our charitable institutions
here-more especially of the Hospital
to an imposition upon them, as I am
reliably informed, by Mr.. John Ander-
son who has for some time been cared
for in that institution. Now / am the
last person in the world to withhold any
thing from the deserving poor, but when
one becomes beneficiary of acharitable
home. I think would not do my duty
NOT TO inform the managers that they
were being abused. Mr.. Anderson has
one or two farms in Rutherford county,
and one or more in Mcdowell county. i
refer to. The tax assessment books Of the
two counties. x.

DIR. Burroughs lost two barns of tobacco

too careful in the curing of their crop, as
the greatest dangers is to be apprehenC ed
from curing.

obtain enc of the new 81 silver certifc-

with his family, for his new charge
at Smithville, Charlotte county Va.
He preached his FAREWELL sermon
Sunday morning to a very large
congregation, composed of his late
charge and many of the friends OF
himself and family. His sermon
was one OF the very best this gentle-
man ever delivered, and made a
deep impression upon his hearers.
His reference to his departure
brought tearsto the eyes of the entire
congregation. Mr.. Cannon leaves
as warm friendships here as he can
ever hope to make anywhere, whose
prayers attend him and his for a
long life of continued usefulness
acd Providantial blessings.

A Sensible Family.

A family named johnson living in
Washington county, were all taken down
with f1ux in very aggravated form,
Having seen notice in one of the coun-
try papers in regard to DR.. Lytle's Elixir,
the medicine was at once sent for, and
although the delay in procuring it came
near proving fatal in two of the cases, yet
a faithful use of this welt known remedy
resulted in the speedy control of the dis
member of the family. At time when
fiux and all other bowel troubles are SO
prevalent LYtie's Elixir ought to be kept
ready for use.

ed to myself since her death. Words
cannot express my feelings, but a CRATE
full heart will ever appreciate these acts.

THR KNIGHTS OF LADoE.

THk KNIGHTS OF LABOR
This body, which has been in session
in Richmond, Va, for a week, has thus
far accomplished no special business, as
far as we can gather from the printed
reports. Up to Saturday only the
organization had been perfected, and the
reports of committees made which has
been referred to special committees.
Regarding the color question" the
following is special to the Washington
Post:
"Although it is given out that the color
question is finally settled, it is believed
that the socialistic portion of the District
40 delegation will endeavor to persuade
Delegate Ferrell (colored) to accompany
them to one of the aristocratic churches
Sunday morning next. If this is attena-
pied there will no doubt be music in the
air on the outside of the church. am
informed that colored delegate got the
floor at the opening of the convention
this morning and denounced in strong
terms the attempts of certain faction of
the General Assembly to make capital,
as it were, at the expense of the colored
race. concluding by saying that the
'social equality question" would regulate
itself; that he would not want an objec-
tionable white man forced into his house,
and, on the other hand, it was not right
to force an Objectionable colored man
into the house of a white man, but that
either had a right to invite the objection
able party if he desired to do So"

Mr.. PEARsoN's ORGAN TO SENATOR VANCE.

Mr.. PEARsoN's ORGAN TO SENATOR VANCE.
The Aduance of Sunday morning Gays
"Senator Vance has been invited to come
to Asheville and make speech in favor
of the ring. Democrat or Republican is
not the issue in Buncombe this year, and
the Senator might as well hold his tongue
for all the good he will do"
Mr.. Pearson's organ avows its "dem-
ocracy," yet this is the insult it essays to
tender the distinguished son of Bun
combe, Zeb Vance, upon the announce
ment that he is to come to this place and
address his fellow-citizens on the public
issues of the day. The idea that "Sir
Richmond" Pearson and his hirelings of
the Aduance should thus undertake to
insult Senator Vance is but another evi-
dence of the reckless desperation of the
crew. The people of Buncombe will
resent this very thoroughly and properly.
