The total number OF polls listed in the
county to July 10, was white, 4,347;
coored, 1856.
Capt. Patton stated to THE CITIZEN
that it is his opinion that there are 500
taxpayers in Ashcvile who have not
listed their taxes, and he believes this
condition of things is due to the fact that
the board of aldermen have exempted
some of the rich men OF Asheville from
the payment of city taxes, and the poor
men, feeling that an unjust burden is
thus put upon them, arc willing to take
almost any risk in irving to avoid pay.
ing their taxes.
Hell property was in, Capt. Patton
gave it as his opinion that the aggregate
for the county, real and personal, would
approximate $40, 100000.
AS to- the city of Ashevillc, having no
abstract Of past years with which to
compare present figures, Capt. Patton
said he could not hope to approximate
accuracy, but his opinion is that it will
reach between five and half and six mil
lions of dollars.
On Monday full abstract of all prop
erty of the country, listed up to and in
cluding July 81, will be submitted to the
board of county commissioners.
Captain Patton thinks the total mum
ber Of polls in the county should be be
tween six and seven thousand, and that
most Of those not listed are in the city o
Asheville.

BAI.MACEDA's WAR SHIP.
She Got Men and Supplies OF Lis
bon and Sailed.

Lisbon, Aug. 1.-The new Balmace-
don war vessel President Errazuriz sailed
for Chill today, having, apparently,
found her complement OF men by some
secret means. 1t is supposed that pre-
vious to leaving this port yesterday she
made arrangements to take on board
outside the harbor the additional men
and stores wanted and it is supposed it
was for this purpose that she anchored
off the shore shortly after leaving the
river. 1t is, therefore, concluded that,
during the night the President Errazuriz
was busilv engaged in taking on board
all that she needed for her trip across the
Atlantic.
The Journal des Comercio today state:
that it is reported that congressional
cruiser, with torpedoes, is cruising of
the coast of Portugal awiting an oppor
