According to Sparks, all patents for
land in the Watertown district, in cases
where there are no contests or charges
of fraud, will be issued just as soon and
as rapidly as the clerical force can get
at them. This is heralded ss All impor-
tant concession on the part of Sparks.
1t would be interesting to know how he
could legally avoid issuing patents un-
der such circumstances. Perhaps the
fact that Mr.. Sparks contemplates obey.

upon as symptom Of returning reason

LET Us Work TOGETHER.


Let our working men and our business
men generally, (all business men are
working men for that matter) unite,
form an association, for the purposes of
devising measures, and plans, and work.
ing together, for the mutual good of each
aud the general good Of our community.
Our own people would be astonished at
the results which would follow such a
concert of action, such sympathy of CO.
operation, such unity Of purpose. The
mechanics, and working class generally
of Asheville, rs distinguished from other
vocations, are unusually conservative,
energetic, enterprising and, in very many
instances, intelligent. Very many Of
them own property here, and the pro-
perty owner every where, necessarily
must be conservative, and if not q fan
attic, progressive citizen. Our mer-
chants, and other business men generally
are intelligent, liberal minded, progress
sive people, credit to any community.
All of these comb ined, when combined
for general and well understood pur-
pose and enterprise, constitute an irwin
chile power for the good of all. It is to
their mutual individual and collective
AAAVOANoO w WOAA bOSCOAOL. IA -
sympathy and with q common object.
Our city presents opportunities for enter.
prises which are unusual, and which, If
entered upon, must rebound to the rapid
developement of our community. The
means within the control of our own
people, when united, will accomplish a
vast deal, an astonishing result, in the
direction of the development of many
useful enterprises. Let US work together;
let US unite together, letus put our means
together and push and pull together and
see, and be astouished at, the result. We
do not suggest this upon any idea of phi
lanthropy. We appeal, in this, to the
natural selfshness of every citizen, bus
iness man, of Asheville. We want all to
cooperate, the one with the other, and
all together, for the good of each and
all Come together, friends. Asheville
needs such efforts, it offers good returns
if We will but put forth our united efforts
to obtain them. Don't let any one sit
back and refuse to join because he may
not get the lions share ofthe good re-
suits which may follow. Let all work
together, and let each have the share
that q general success and prosperity and
his own energy may and will secure
him. Let us unite and work toRether.

TAXES IiIs'N Straight.

TAKES HIs'N STRAIGHT.
We learn that Mr.. Thos. J. Gambler
and other republicans of Buncombe who
are dissatisfied with the misfit concern
named by the "mass meeting" some time
ago, Messrs. Baird and Pearson and
others, have called a straight-out repu-
blican convention to meet in Asheville
on the 10th inst, to take such steps as
may seem in accord with the dignity of
true republicans. The more these repu-
blicans think of the thing the more they
cant see how they have any pig in the
political pen as now fixed up under the
stock law in this county. Messrs. Baird
and Pearson, personally, have been un-
derstood to be stock law men, and they
certainly have been understood to be
democrats. When they have changed
on either question must have been very
lately, and, to our republican friends
most sudden, just about the time that
nominations" were in order, and with
Mr.. Lusk who has been understood all
along to be stock law republican, the
antis of that tparty think their late mass
meeting has resulted in a pretty and very
unsavory kettle of fish. So they propose
to open their mouths and speak ON the
10th. We shall await their conclusions
with much interest.

To PosT-MAsTERs.


The complaints we are daily get
ting in regard to the failure of the
CITIZEN to reach subscribers at Eari-
Gus, and many, offices, are simply
disgraceful to the postal aathori-
ties. One complaint COW before us,
from California Greek, Madison
county, urges US to- ask the postal
authorities to require the post-mas-
dpTs OF, route, from Asheyille to
BurnsVllle to distribass the mail
properly. The paper reaches them
once in two and three weeks This
we know to be gross carelessness
somewhere. And this is just such
complaint as we have this week
from more than a-half dozen diff
ferent Esections, complaining from
different causes &c. We again call
attention to this matter. There
must be outrageous carelessness on
part of .post-masters and route
agents somewhere. We shall cons
tinue to call attention to the trouble
until it ceases; and we hope all who
fail to receive their paper will let
us know regularly.
After writing the above we re-
ceived two other complaints, one
from Briggsville, Madison county,
the other from Gypsey P. O., N. c.
We hope to hear no more COM
plants. -

The earthquake had q Berious eff
feet in North Carolina as well as in
our neighbor State. Our friend Mr.,
S. NJ. Thomas, of Laurinburg,
Richmond county tells US ofserious
damage in his place. He left his
home, a few moments after the
shock, for AsheYille. When he left
he did not think any damage had
been done to his own or any other
property in his section. Yesterday
he received letter from his wife,
which informed him. that his resi-
dence, Ga large brick dwelling) was
so very badly damaged by the shock
oflast Tuesday night that it had to
be abandoned entirely, and the
family now occupied another build
ing. This was very surprising to
our friend, and he left yesterday for
his home. We hope, however, he
will not find it so bad as he fears.

A CHANGE AT THE PosT OFFICE.

Il CHANGE AT THE TOST OFFCE.
Postmaster Weaver has removed
Mr.. G. B. Moore who has for some
years been the very capable and
courteous assistant postmaster and
money-order clerk at the Asheville
post t-ofice. Our young friend Jim-
mie Young has. been appointed to
succeed him.
While we like to see Jimmie
in the postofice or elsewhere, and
shall be pleased to see his pleas
ant face through the window, yet
we must express real regret at the
removal of Mr.. Moore. He came to
Asheville some eight or ten years
ago q young man, and entered upon
duty at the postofice, and by his
apt capacity, sterling integrity and
unchanging courtesy, won the es-
teem and confidence of all citizens.
He was generally endorsed by our
people for retention when recent
change took place in the postmas-
tership, and it would have been to
the satisfaction of our community
for him to have remained. What
ever he may enter upon he will
have the best wishes ofour people.

According to notice, number of our
citizens metat the court house last night

Mr.. Johnstone Jones of committee of
fered the following:
'fRKsoLYED, That the intelligence ol
the dire calamity which has befallen ouI
sister city of Charleston fills the people
of this community with emotion OF pro-
found sorrow, and touches all hearts
with sympathy; and that the heroic en-
dulance and patient fortitude exhibited
by the people of Charleston under such
appalling circumstances excites our uns
bounded admiration. 9
REsoLvRD, That while we recognize
in the earthquake manifestation
of the power Of Almighty God, and bow
in humble submission to the will of the
Master, we regard it as our duty, as
it is our pleasure, to extend helping
hand to our brave, accomplishing and
suffering brethren. y
RESOLVED, We hereby tender to the
citizens of Charleston our aid and
sympathy, and assure them that
are ready TO do 4hem serviee; that orr
homes are open to receive and shelter

We had the pleasure of meeting
a gentleman who had come direct
from Charleston. He showed us
some of the blue and yellow sand
Cor mud as it is called) which has
been thrown up by the recent shock,
Nothing about this, from the in.
formation he gives, which fully cor
responds with that we have heard
from other reliable sources, is an
unnatural resultant of the recent Sc
we're conYulsion to which that Sec
tion was subjected, and nothing
about it can be traced to volcanic
movement. He also showed us
some of the pebbles which were
said to have fallen upon a portion
of the city. That these pebbles fell
is certainty well authenticated;
where they came from, or how they
came to fall, cannot be authentica-
ted. These pebbles, or flint rocks,
comprise the most singular and in
explicable phenomena, to US, of this
recent extraordinary event.
Tney are certainly stranger to that
section, they are equally strangersto
volcanic characteristics; what they
are, or how they came to occur in
Charleston at this particular juno
ture of affairs is something entirely
beyond our ken. The gentleman
reports having seen two very brill
liant meteors the night before the
fall of the pebbles. They partake
far more of meteoric than a volcanic
character.
This pebble circumstance affords
the most interesting subject for
scientific study of all the subjects
forced upon an innocent public by
the ..recent shocks. A piece of a
pebble has been given Capt. Breese,
Of the First National Bank by his
friend, who will take pleasure in
showing it. Id -
The gentleman also stated that
the devastation was as great as re-
ported, and it was feared by many
would prove greater than reported,
but the people had gone to work
earnestly and bravely, to repair
damages; and are ready, in great
measure, to responed to all business
demands which may be made upon
them. m.--s-----.--.-----
