Card plavIne in pnrIs.

Card playing in Paris has become an ALSO
Lutte passion among all classes Cards are
played at all hours of the day and night In
all the cafes, from the Cafe Richie to the
Tayerne de Bagne, the game goes on unin-
terruptedly. And not only in cafes, but in
the houses Of rich and poor alike. Those un-
fortunate mortals who cannot get out Of Paris
on Sundays resort to the quiet excitement of
card playing to pass the time. You may see
the concierges playing in the doorways, and
the milk wonsn and the coster at it on the
pavement during the intervals Of business.
The passion dominates the whole community,
and, as money is generally introduced in the
game, it exercises demoralizing effect. This
little bit Of explanation is necessary in order
to fully comprehend the fact TINT during the
last year the duty ON cards in France, which
was first imposed by Henry III, amounted
to 100000 francs-S50O, 00O-an excess of
5000 on the previous year. More money is
probably put on cards under the republic than
in the century of the Roi-Soleil, when Nine.
Montespan lost 10000 ecus in one evening. :

Ere ever a shadow of night gave warn
When life seemed only a pleasure
guest
Why, then, all humor and comedy scorn-
ing,
liked high tragedy best.

duel,
With death or parting in every act:
liked the villain to be more cruel
Than the basest villain could be III
fact,
For it fed the fires Of my mind with fuel
OF the things that my life lacked.
But as time passed on and met real
sorrow,
And she played at night ON the stage Of
my heart,
found could not forget on the NOR
row
The pain had felt in her tragic part;
And, alasi no longer needed to borrow
My grief from the actors art.
And as life grows older and therefore
sadder,

I End more pleasure in watching the
gladder
And lighter order of humorous plays,
Where mirth is as mad, or may be mad
der,
Than the mirth of my lost days.

Tho the earth with sorrow Is ripe and

s Two young men from Henderson.
vile reached here yesterday, and
put up at the Swannanoa Hotel
One was Willie, son Of DIR. w. d.
Whitted the other was named Les
lie, both citizens of Hendersonville,
Leslie seemed to have been somes
what impecunious, and tried to bor-
row from his companion but the
loan was refused. Yesterday morns
ing quite early Mr.. Whitted had oc-
casion to leave the room. Lessie gets
ting up soon after, espied $40. bill
on the floor which Whitted had
dropped. This sharpened Leslie's
curiosity to farther investigation in
to Whitted's pocket book and he
was rewarded with $50, and then he
left the hotel. Mr.. Whitted soon re-
turned and discovered his loss. Les
lie was afterwards found, arrested
and searched, and $40. were recov-
cred, the rest having been spent. He
was committed to Jail.

Mr.. KoPE ELIAS.
We have net yet received the oficia
report of the proceedings of the conyen-
ton of the convention of the Forty-sec-
ond Senatorial district, but have learned
that the above gentlemen of the county
of Macon was nominated.
This is graceful and just tribute to
one of the trust and most earnest demo-
Gratis and citizens of his section. In sea-
son and out, since his boYhood, he has
labored for his section and his party
always for the good and the promotion of
others, at all time at heavy personal ex-
pence and sacrifices, never until now
asking or receiving recognition. Mr..
Elias is q gentleman of ability, of the
strictest fidelity to his friends and his
section of large acquaintance and infu-
enee throughout the State and viii eer-
tainly make an excellent Senator. We
congratulate the district as well as him
self and our party upon the selection.

SHOOTING AT Hot SPRINGS.

Saturday night, while railroad
employees 1.-THE above place were
sitting in their shanty, one of them
was carelessly handling a pistol,
when it exploded, the ball striking
another, entering the head about the
right temple and lodging about the
base of the brain. The attending
physician, after thorough examina-
ton, pronounced it a fatal shot. AT
last still living, but no hopes are
entertained ofhis recovery. All par
ties are eolored. The shooting was
entirely accidental.

For the information of the publ

For the information of the public
we make known the fact that the
trains on the AsheyilIe and Spartan
burg road start from, and return
to, the Spartanburg junction, two
miles from the court house, and pas
sengers going out on that road must
take conyeyaEces to that point; and
those coming to Asheville will be
brought in from there. It was found
that at the time of the arrival and
departure of the trains of that road
the main track at the Asheville de-
pot was too much: crowded to give
proper facilities for. an additional
train. No doubt the difficulty will
be renaedied in due time.
Mr.. Swicegood. proprietor of the
water sprinkler, desires US to state
that the impression which seems to
have spread over our community
Monday morning like the music
from a fog horn that his driver,
John Davis Esq, was drunk, was an
entire mistake. He did slip from
his seat and come in rather unpleas-
ant contact with the earth's surface,
which made him for the instant see
a whole constellation of other worlds,
but, he was dead, sure sober, as he
always is, and his slip-up was an ac-
-cident. We make the announce
ment with great pleasure.
The many friends of Col. Thad. Bry.
son Of Swain viii will be pleased to learn
that notwithstanding his continued se-
we're suffering which keeps him mostly
on his bed, he bears up under it with
great cheerfulness and good spirit. A
number of his many friends from the
counties called en- him Saturday, and
were pleased to see their old friend
again.

residing on Crabtree, Haywood county,

Romans ABROAD. zE
With the influx of good element
there is a dash of worse one. One
night last week. man going home was
stopped on Academy street by a foot pad
armed, and made to surrender $40. The
robber escaped. Sunday night on the
same street another man was stopped
by two footpads, and compelled to give
up his money. Two of the police force
happened to be in hearing, and heard
one of them say give up that other ten
dollar gold piece or I'll blow your brains
out" The police Immediately quickened
their pace and the robbers fed. Several
pistol shots were fred at them. but they
escaped without harm. This is something
new here, and wont be tolerated long.
