ABOUT PUBLIC BUILDINGs--The fol-
lowing letter OF the Secretary Of the
Treasury to Hon. Thos. D. Johnston about
the Asheville public building, may be of
interest to our citizens, as the Charlotte
Public Building matter has been dis
cussed 10 the Chamber of Commerce:
Sir:-In reply to your letter of the I'd instant,
requesting to be informed when work will be
commenced on the public building to be erected
at Ashevile, N. g., and how the same will be
performed and when the Department will need
the services of Superintendent of Construc-
tion, l have the honor to state that as soon as
the title to the property selected as a site is
secured, plans and specifications will be pre-
pared at once, the work advertised, and the con-
tract for the whole building with the exception,
possibly, ofcarpentry and joinery work, will De
awarded to the lowest bidder; this, however,
cannot be done before early spring, and the SER
vices of Superintendent will not be needed
until work shall be commenced.
In regard to the recommendation in your let
ter, and to your urgent personal request Of this
morning, and your previous visits to the Depart
meDt, that the material for the building, and the
labor to be employed thereon, be obtained in
Western North Carolina, in order that the work
ing-men and people of your District may have
the full benefit of the appropriation. l can only
say that while it is the policy of the Department
to favor local interests in the matter Of the
tion of public buildings. still as the work will
be let under contract, these considerations will
rest with the contractor, but usually it is to the
best interests of contractors to secure material
and labor from the immediate neighborhood for
obvious reasons. Respectfully yours,
HUGH s. THOMPSON, Acting Sec'y.

The Canadian Situation.

The loose talk of certain editors and
speakers concerning our relations with
Canada is calculated to mislead those who
have not studied the situation. During
the past two weeks, q New York Sun COR
respondent has been travelling through
Canada interviewing politicians, business
men and farmers The information col
lected by him is of interest, and 10 doubt
less reliable. Intelligent Canadians admit
that the enforcement Of our retaliation pol
icy would injure them more than it would
iniure Us. They admit, too, that however
averse tLelr government may be to back
ing down it will sooner or later have to
yield to the pressure from Washington, ss
the British ministers have sharply advised
q compromise.
So far as annexation to the United
States is concerned, there is very little de-
sire among the Canadians for such solu
tion of their problems In Novia Scotia
there 10 a pretty strong annexation senti
ment, bat there is none of it in the interior
The Canadians express the belief that in
future they will have many differences
with us over matters as serious as the fish
cries question, but they feel confident thai
the two countries will have the good sense
to remain at peace with each other. II
may not be fsttering to our patriotic
pride, but it is q fact that our neighbour
prefer to suffer few incon veniences under
the British flag than to come under the
stars and stripes, and be cut up into states
aud go through the ordeal of what we cal
reconstruction. Perhaps the Canadian
are right. At all events, so long as the.
wish to stay out of the union we are no
going to urge them to enter it.

South Carolina PresbYterians again Agi
tated over the Doctrine.

CHARLESTON, Oct, 14.-At q meeting
of the Charleston Presbytery. held at
Aiken last week, a resolution was adopted
declaring that the PresbYtery regards the
holding of the doctrine of evolution as
CONTRARY to the word of God as interpre-
ted 10 theetandards of the Church." and
forbids the public contending against the
decree OF the Assembly. A protest was
entered on the minutes by the minority,
declaring that the resolution was unlawful
and unwarranted, because it implies an
uncharitable suspicion against members oi
the Church, and is an attempt to practi'
cally seal the lips of every one under the
jurisdiction of the Presbytery. The pro-
tsstants further declare that the resolu
given liberty, unwaTranted by the facts
and in violation of our Constitution
For some reason the proceedings of the
Presbytery were not made public until q
day or two ago, and to-day the Presbyte
rians in the State are intensely agitsted
A number of prominent pastors are out
spoken in denouncing the resolution. Th'
Southern Presbyterian. of which DR.
Woodrow is the editor, says:
"Thus each minister, ruliug-elder, ant
deacon within the bounds of this PresbY
terry is forbidden to express any advers
opinion respecting the confused and self
contradictory declarations of the Balti
more Assembly. Whoever disregard
this prohibition will be guilty OF disobedi
ence to the powers that be, and must b
prepared to suffer the penalties whicl
these powers will infict on all the cor
tumacious." .--.-s..-...
Three out of the four Presbyterian pas
tors in this city declare absolutely tha
they do not recognize the authority of th
Presby terry, Synod, or any other churc
court to put paddock on their lips, an
hold that they have the right to specu
late upon the peculiar method of the form
alton of Adams body.
DR.. Neander Woods of Columbia, In
sermon, said: 81 venture to affirm that
all the twenty seven years of the exis
ence of the Southern Presbyterian Church
never has one OF its courts undertaken
do what our Presbytery has done With
the last few days"
DR.. Bracket, pastor of the larges
richest, and most Influential church her
said: "I cannot believe that the Syno
will endorse this unlawful, unkind, an
unparalleled decree. feel under no o.
llipations to Obey it. )"

An ImDortant Letter
From Speaker Carlisle to Hon. Ihos. q
Johnston.

From Speaker Carlisle to Hon. Thos. d.
Johnston.
The following letter appeared in the
Asheville Citizen of the 9th:
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES !
Washington, Oct. 5. !
Hon. Thos. D. Johnston, House of Rep
resentatives: Dear Sir My attention
has been called to an account of meet
ing held at Webster, N. c., which was
addressed by Mr. Ewart, who in the
course Of his speech, criticised your action
for voting for me for Speaker of the
House, and stated that you knew "that
Mr. Carlisle was the attorney of the mon
strous whiskey trust" So far as this
statement affects me personally l care
nothing about it, and would not notice
II except for the fact that a failure upon
my part to contradict it might be injuri
GUS to you in your canvass tor reelection
TO the House OF Representatives. For
this reason alone | desire to say in the
most emphatic manner that the statement
made by Mr. Ewart is absolutely and un
qualiiedly false. l am not now and
never have been an attorney for the whis
Key trust or any other trust, aud if MI
hwsrt has any evidence or pretended
evidence, to sustain bis assertion, hope
he will not hesitate to produce it.
Moreover, it i'd proper to add that the
testimony taken before the House Com
m'ttee on Manufactures during the pres
ent session Of Congress shows conclusively
that there is no whiskey trust in Ken
lucky: The only existing trust in the
manufacture of distilled spirits consists O
the makers Of what are called high wines
and is located north of the Ohio River.
Very respectfully yours,
]. G.. CARLISLE.
