The opErA HoUsE MoNDAY NIGHT.


The fate of those trayesties ON the
drama as have offended the good sense
and good taste of audiences here, such as
Round the World and Under the Lash,
had thrown safe guard against their
repetition; and rousing welcome was
assured for the next, which was assured
to come under better auspices. Patti
Rosa, in tn Comedy Drama Bob, was
awaited with eager expectation, and tie
full house that greeted Patti was ready
to yield at once to the fame that had pre-
ceded her-never was confidence better
repaid. The little actress, pttle in figure,
was just the size to represent the way
ward, tomboyish, mischievous, untama-
bic child; yet large enough to sustain the
developments of ofthoughtfulnens courage,
daring and determined will which arose
in the course of the play; all of these
strangely blended with a mischievous
fun that put touch of comedy on the
gravest complication, and tinctured the
most serious of situations with the most
sparkling Of fun. The audience was
carried away in the spirit of fun; it look
ed with very indifferent eye to the
Eolemnities of the tragic feSscre. It was
carried along in one irresistible current
of enjoyment by the witchery of the
Capricious wilful little Bob.
The "Professah" with his inin1itably
ugly face and blazing red hair shared
with Bob the honors of the evening. His
agility was as unbounded as his ugliness.
He sang togetf er mall the extravaganzas
which adorn the genius of Gilbert and
Sullivan; they danced together; and they
hornpiped together with an abandon
which was as graceful as it was grotesque;
and they firted together with familiar
ity natural TO mischievous maiden and
an infammable old beau. When these
two occupied the stage, the house was
wild with delight, insatiate in its enjoy
ment and almost cruel in its demands.
But Patti always submitted with fresh
incidents of her frolicsome humor.
Of the others we will only say that
they all sustained their parts as worthy
and admirable supporters of the spirit of
the troupe, the best that has been here
in some time, and rarely equalled at any
time.
As comedy drama IN all its parts it
was good and thoroughly sustained. In
that department we could have had no
thing better and we think this is the
conclusion Of the audience, one as large
as the house could hold.

A SensibIe Fanlilv.

A family named johnson living in
Washington county, were all taken down
with fux in a 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 well known remedy
resulted in the speedy control of the dis
ease and restoration to health of every
member of the family. At time when
fux and all other bowel troubles are SC
prevalent Lytie's Elixir ought to be kept
ready for use.

The most interesting case in the Infer
ior Court yesterday was the State Ucrsns
F. A. Lance, charged with participating
in the afray which occurred at the
Asheville Warehouse some time ago
over the stock. law, in which sticks, &C.,
were freely used. Messrs. Solicitor Car
ter and Henry Hardwicke represented
the State, and Mr. J. H Merrimon the
defense. We know that neither the jury
or any one connected with the court
were hung, and the Lord knows we are
glad of it, but up to late hour last
evening the jury had simply "failed to
agree"

Messrs. Levy, whitlock, Carmi>

others of our merchants have added
the electric light to their houses,
and the effect has been very fine.
Everything is made brighter and
more attractive, and more pleasing,
not only inside as the reflection upon
the street adjoining is very beauti-
ful. We understand a number
of other of our business houses will
soon have the electric light. It will
pay as beautifer. Let it spread.

THE CHARGES AGAINST THE COUNTY
COMMISSIONERS.
Mr.. Pearson has been disgrace
fully shameful in his charges o.
wastefulness and, practically, cor
ruption, against the county commits
sioners, composed of such men
Buncombe men, born and raised in
this county among this people-Eua
game Rankin, Rev. DR.. Reagan, N
A. Penland, L. L. Childs, and T. D.
Britain, and all the justices, repub-
licans and democrats alike. These
honest countymen have been
charged with "squandering the peos
pies money on. their friends" and
in several instances have specific
charges been made against individ-
ual commissioners or justices. The
following from one of the commits
sioners, DIR. Reagan, settles one of
these charges, and every other one
is of like charaeter.a this, mean,
deliberate, wilful falsehood. We
publish DR.. Reagan's letter without
further comment, only to add that
with honorable and intelligent meE
of Buncombe the sauthorities
need no defense against charges OF
official or personal corruption DIR.
R. says:
WEAvERvILLE, OcT 26th, 1866.
Editors Citizen learn that
it is charged that the Chairman of the
Board of County Commissioners re.
ceived one hundred and one dollars for
riding down to Alexander's to receive
that bridge. Now l wish to say, and all
the Commissioners will endorse it, that l
had full charge of that bridge, and that l
only charged and received two dollars
for my services in inspecting and receiv.
ing said bridge; besides l made the com.
pany do one hundred dollars worth OF
work, or at least pay Capt. Rice one hun
dred dollars to do it, which was taken
out of the price of the bridge This 1
had done after they reported the bridge
done. Capt. Rice, A. M. Alexander and
others will testify to this. So we saved
the county one hundred dollars instead
of squandering her money. We are not
ashamed of our record.

Mr.. Lusk and supported warmly by
Messrs. Billy Henderson, Bob Pat
terson, Bill Deaver, T. J. Gambler,
demands the "repeal of the Bun
oombe stock-1aW."
Mr.. Pearson says that he is moi
for repeal but insists that the people
of the townships shall be allowed
to vote on the question and decide
for themselves whether they want
it or not.
Mr.. Pearson says on the stump at
Leicester he and Mr.. Wells, il
elected, will not disturb the law in
townships where it is established.
Mr.. Pearson, SO we are informed
told voter at Sandy Mush who IA
vors the stock law, that he would
not disturb the law only in those
townships where it is so objectiona-
BILE, and provide for the election to
be held twelve months later, so as
to give the people a chance to gel
used to it.

writes to a stock law republican
"the stock law is all right, meaning
that Mr.. Pearson and Wells will not
disturb il, and to- lot-that alamo and

mocracy."
People of Buncombe, we care not

men, whether you live in township

you vote for man of such shocking

lieve our people will endorse Mr.
