B. Allison, not very lately discovered, but until recently, not very well known for its effects. The springs are about three and a half miles of Webster, in the beautiful valley of the beautiful Savannah Creek, a stream rising not far away in -the Co wee and. guarded all the way to its entrance into the Tuckaseege by out lying ranges of the' main chain. The springs burst out near: the margins of the creek in bold, clear, cold currents.

No analysis of the water has been made. But there seems to be'a combination of chalybeate and sulphur which have! proved remarkably -efhcaceoua in kidney affec 'V THE THREE BOBES. There lies across the mother's knee, And gathered in her hand, A little robe of poffs and lace, With an embroider'd band. I see her smile, I hear her sing A low, aweet lullaby; And eft I see a thought of joy Light up her bright bine eye. It is a robe for her dear child To be christen'd in There lies across the mother's knee, And gathered in her hand, A silken robe, with puffs of lace, And an embroider'd band.

His tittle spirit flew away To find its resting place; I think in that great judgment day I'll know his little face.

I know I goon murt leave this world, I hope in perfect joy And then I'll see my babe, My precious little boy. Sometimes I almost long to go And be with him, at rest And then I think the Lord must know What is for me the best. then let me while here I stay, Always from tears refrain The Lord stid he'd come back ome day And wake him up again.

Candler, with whom we conversed on the subject of these waters, has an exalted opinion of their virtues, which he thinks cannot be exaggerated. We hope to see these springs brought into notiob, and they are worthy the attention of capitalists. No more beautiful watering-place could be made in this whole country than on the site occupied by. these springs. Effects of the Dkocqht.

None of the.

indictments embraced a high degree of crime. The most interesting case, that of Hoke Secrest, was disposed of Monday afternoon.1 His crime has become one pf the cause eelebrn in our criminal annals. Indicted at the Fair term of McDowell court of 1878, for the murder of his wife and child, sifter a trial lasting six days, he was convicted and sentenced to beung. An appeal was taken to the Supreme court, and the judgment of the court below was affirmed. He was brought up before the court at the following Spring term.

Covington, counsel for the prisoner, agreed upon a course of action which meets general approval On motion of the Solicitor, he was ordered to bs taken to Burke county there be ueld as a lunatic under the supervision of the Superintendent of the Western Asylum until that institution shall be prepared to receive him as a patient under restraint, his adjudgment as a lunatic being contemplated in the order. His manner and appearance would indicate pronounced and permanent metal.aberration. There is no attempt to public credulity.

There is no acting the insane impostor. He sits with his eyes half closed, his face downcast and his fingers in continuous nervous play. Sometimes he gives way to impatient mntterings, but is most often in abstracted silence. His old father, a respectable and well-to-do farmer of Union county, was with him in the court, and was firmly convinced of his insanity. Neglected His Family.

Kelsey Rhea. The death of a useful citizen is always a calamity to any community. Such a misfortune has occurred to Asheville this week. Mr. Kelsey Rhea was stricken with appoplexy Tuesday night, and after much Buffering, died Thursdav nieht at about half past one o'clock.

Drs. Bur roughs and Williams exerted themselves, but in vain. It is thought the attack was brought on by over exertion at the fire last week. Mr. Rhea was born in Yancey county in 1836, and was therefore 47 years of age.

Since his first marriage to the daughter of the late Solomon Carter, on Ivy, in this county, he has resided in Buncombe, near the headwaters of Reems' Creek. His first wife died some years ago, and two years ago he-married Miss Harriett Melton, who survives him For some time Mr. R. has resided in Asheville, and managed th Bank Hotel, also was the senoir member of the firm of Rhea, Chambers of the Asheville Warehouse. His remains were removed Friday morning to the family burying ground on Big Ivy.

The death of Mr. R. is a great loss, and his family have the deep sympathy of all. bFTffosift." Sanitary regulations are by no means of recent growth. In connection with this subject we would refer our readers to the laws of Moses, B.

1491, viz: "And thou shalt have a paddle with thv weapon; and it shall be-, when thou wilt ease thyself abroad, thon shalt dig therewith, and shalt turnback and shalt cover that which cometh from thee." Dent, xxiii 13. i Nearly a quarter of a century ago a clergyman of the ehurch of England, Moale by name, invented what is well known as Moale's dry earth system, consisting of iron tanks, small enough to be readily movable, into which powdered earth could be shot by a very simple mechanism. The intention of these tanks was to have them removed to a suitable distance from habitations, and there to have their contents disinfected and turned into fertilizers. By this method not only is no expense entailed upon the corporation nsing it, but on the contrary by proper management considerable revenue can be derived from the sale of the fertilizers thus obtained, over and above all cost of construction and operation.

How Asheviixb Looked to Him. The editor of the Lenior Jbptc, who spent a day in our city last week, says in his paper: "The town is rapidly growing, having attached to its borders many men of wealth who are investing their money in local enterprises. Mr. Richmond Pearson and a company of wealthy gen-tlenuh are preparing. to build a $75,000 hotel on Battery and other large building investments are being made.

The town government is progressive and eschews the "penny, wise, pound foolish" poJicyvrS; Work i prorressing on the street paving for which the town has appropriated $20,000, and on the' water works for which $20,000 has been pro-Vided." BCSCOM3H -Mr. C. T. C. Deake and Dr.

This is almost too much to say of a circus, and it will bardly credited, but a candid examination of this managerie and ring brings the truth-loving reporter to the confession that sobriety of statement is mighty, and is prevailing over all of Barnum's adjectives. Chicago Evening Journal, May 17; 1881. For many excellent reasons, conspicuously furnished by itself, we are pleased to announce the speedy coining of Sells Brothers' Enormous Railroad Shows, now unitexL Every possible assurance is given that it is, what its title suggests, the grandest and wealthiest amusement organization on earth, canopying all wonderland with its half million yards of electric-lighted canvas. But even more conclusive evidence than the weighty indorsement of the Press and the potent voice of public approval is the straightforward and unprecedented action of the Messrs.

Sells themselves in vigorously demanding the strict enforcement of the law against all exhibitions guilty of obtaining money under false pretenses, and of grossly swindling their patrons by loudly advertising attractions they do not possess; in strenuously insisting that a passable performance in some respects does not excuse wholesale misrepresentation in other things; and finally, in and boldly urging the Press to speak of their show just as it is. Clearly, no im poster, no fraudulsnt advertiser, no ordinary exhibition would dare to thus plainly and publicly arouse such powerful agencies to crush 'it Genuine superiority, true greatness and invincible integrity can atone court such an ordeal, and as the Messrs. Sells are the onlv ones to do it, the conclusion is irresistible that theirs is indeed the verv First and Finest of iShows. and that, in the words of the Binghamton' (N. Daily Rrpubiean, "their names will be as p-Kid on a show bill as Vanderbilt's is on a bank check." Thetenacity with which people abide by their early faith in Ayer'sSarsaparillu can only be explained by the fact that it is the best blood medicine ever used and is not approached in excellence by any new candidate for public favor.

The theory that forests secure uniform rainfall receives a severe shock by this drought which continued from the last week" in April; yet seven-eights of the afflicted country, except along the is in woods. One ui the most singular effects of the drought is in the death oi the timber. On the face of almost every mountain are large patches of brightly eolured foliage glowing with the hues of autumn, while all around is vivid green.

It is the death the mark of the drought, falling upon places where the soil is thin and resting on rocks, and where the moisture was thoroughly exhausted. Unless the rains restore vitality, many an unsightly scar will mar the beauty ol the mountain landscape. Extending the Richmond akd Danville feom Goldsbobo to Norfolk. Says the Charlotte Journal-Observer of Sunday. The recent visit of members of the Se-ney syndicate to Norfolk is likely to result in the building of a line of road from Norfolk to Goldsboro, and the long cherished dream ot Col.

L. W. Humphreys will be fulfilled. rThe -Richmond and Danville is endeavoring to secure a direct line to Norfolk for the freight which has heretofore gone to Norfolk over the Norfolk and Western railroad irom Knoxville by virtue of the connection-with the East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia railroad at that place. The plan is to build a road from Norfolk to Goldsboro, in this State, at which place the line of the Richmond and Danville system ends, and thus secure the carrying of all freight put on any its lines' for Norfolk entirely over its own lines.

It is understood that the business men of Norfolk alone have pledged $250,000 to the enterprise. A liberal charter was granted by the Legislature of this State in 1872 for the purpose of building this road. A Mr. Owens, of New York -eity andCotoric- Ir lUun-' phrey, of Goldsboro is the moving spirit. He has been working at this project for eleven years, and thinks the road will be built in a very short time.

The Atlanta Constitution says that a year ago the Richmond Danville people made a strong effort to buy a majority of the stock of the Seaboard Roanoke railroad and failed. It'is asserted here that this spurt of the Richmond and Danville folks is made, for the of inducing the holders. of the Seaboard -stock to sell, so that the Richmond Danville owners may thus obtain control of the line from Norfolk -to Raleigh, which -would do awav with the nccessitj of building a road to Goldsboro, as connection would then be at Raleigh. If they fail it is firmly believed tliat the road will be speedily built to Goldsboro. iTBEAtmriss the Complexion.
