The Farmers and Mechants' Bank
opened On Monday. Cashier yandiver and

fitted with all the appliances for business.
The question of new Court House Is be-
ing agitsted by the people, and it is only

do for Anderson to be laggard in any
thing that looks to her material prosperi-
ty.

move to their new storeroom, next door to

We understand that Granite Row will
soon be attacked by the spirit of enterprise
which is so greatly improving two sides Of
the Square. This will, indeed, be step
in the right direction, as Granite Row and
Brick Range are hardly decent when
brought in juxtaposition with the other
two more enterprising sides of the Square.
Attention is directed to the advertise.
ment of the Oakland Female Institute, Of
Ashsville, N. G. Anderson was repre-.
sented in this Institute last session by
several young ladies. 1t ranks as one of
the best institutions of learning in North
Carolina, and parents having daughters to
educate could not place them in q better
college.
