These drouths do not effect the grow

on the 4th made ready to migrate,
and after the 9th not bird was to

Last Thursday night the store of

Laye been on the track of the MUIR

That Mrs. Ovens had hired Them
TO kill her husband. She wish them

gave him medicine to put him in a

A Chicago dispatch of the 18th,
says:
Affidavits to support the motion

is entered, that the verdict is not
supported by evidence, and it is alr
so urged that the counsel for the
State employed form ofargument
which was calculated to prejudice
the jury. The chief point urged,
however, is the story tefegraphed to
the effct that man entered drink

days before the Haymarket massa-
ere and exhibited a satchel; intima-
ting that slaughter would occur in
Chicago in few days. The theory
of the defence is that this misteriH

An army officer writes as follows to the
army and Nary Journal respecting the
Asheville, N. e., country and the advan-
tages it offers to invallds or persons seek
ing homes in pleasant climate and
neighborhood. "Having had number
of letters during the past winter in regard
to this intra montane section, or plateau
of the Alleghanies as it is sometimes
called, its climate, etc, and among them
several from army and navy people, it
has occurred to the writer that many of
your readers might be interested in a
short, non.scientific outline of the adyan-
tages offered by Asheville and surround-
ings to retired officers seeking home and
health; officers on sick leave or officers
on waiting orders, who have families,
and to families of officers at sea; ia short,
to any who desire a fine allsthe-year
round climate, amid as beautiful scenery
as America possesses. The great Appala-
cham Of mountains extending from
Maine to Alabamas upon Eeaehi1E ,,gVess
tern North Carolina, is sec spIii
into ridges, most prominsl l3re
the Blue Ridge and Greas S11ookfes \ an
extension of the Alleghniee) between
which is the plateau of which we speak,
cut up by spurs and cross ranges into
great Irregularities. Having climbed the
Blue Ridge about 2,500 feet, via the Wes-
tern North Carolina Railroad from the
east, the backbone or crest or "water di-
vide" 10 reached, where before your very
eye, waters start west for. the Gulf and
east for the Atlantic. thence by gentle
descent of say 200 feet, the AsheYiIle
section is made, the town or city as its
cosmopolitan and native residents to the
number of 5000 are pleased to call it,
being located at the confluence of the
Swannanoa and French Broad rivers.
The mountainsof This region are grandly,
Yerdantly wooded to the very top, and
altogether the scenery is of that quiet,
restful character of which the eye never
tires. The air is uniformly dry and
bracing, winter and summer, and it is a
fact worthy of great consideration by the
health-seeker, that even in the wettest
weather instruments for measuring the
amount or percentage of moisture in the
atmosphere, as the wet and dry bulb
thermometer, not only show very small
percentage of moisture, but the air feels
Tighter and drier in respiration and upon
the face than in less elevated and damper
sections of-the country. Elevation and
atmospheric dryness are daily being
reckoned more and more important
factors in the treatment of lung troubles,
and every year marks larger number OF
such sufferers, directed here by the most
eminent medical practitioners in the
country"

There has been no recurrence of

they felt a slight trenaor about 10

There were several slight shocks
at Summerville last night, but no.

The weather in Charleston tosday

has been anticipated with great
deal of fear and trembling By hum
drees OF anxious people in Charles

nights the colored churches haYe
been crowded with worshippers and
several revivals are now in prog
ress among there people in the city.
Even the most courageous have felt
some dread at the approach OF
the 29th, and although they have
earnestly asserted that they did not
believe in Wlggins, they have all
felt that it would be more comf0rta-
BILE to live in Charleston after the
29th. The indications are exceed
ingly favorable and there no pre-
monitions of approaching shocks,
Local sciences who have given great

The school for Indians at Yellow

which though it has done much
good, and was well managed, will be
more useful and satisfactory when
