All eyes are now direeted towards tie Republican National Convention, now assembled in Chicago. To Re publicans the country over its proceed, ings will be of the utmost importance. The paramount question, of course, is the nomination it makes for President. The Republican people of the country generally have spoken and indicated the man they desire to be placed in nomination, and the question now is, will the people's choice be given them ? Or will the office holders' choice be taken? James G. Blaine and Chester A. Arthur will be the two foremost names before the Convention, and, at this writing, it looks as if one of them will be chosen. How can the Conven tion hesitate in deciding between them? The nomination of Blaine means suc cess. The nomination of Arthur means defeat. The people of this country will never elect a man to the Presidency who as Vice President first came into that high office through the bullet of an assassin, who publicly pro claimed at the time he fired the fatal shot what its purpose and effect would be—"This makeß Arthur President," he boldly declared. No argument, of any kind, can wipe this out, or recon cile the people to continuing in office a man who came into power in that man ner. And we cannot believe it will be done. If there are any reasons suf ficient for the setting aside of Mr. Blaine, then let another be chosen. The Republican party contains other and good men who will make accept able standard bearers. Let one of them be taken, and the party will go into the contest with heart and hope of success. At least without a mill-stone weight upon it from the very start. This week's work at Chicago will determine its fate. The nomination will likely not be made before the latter part of the week. Armstrong County. The Republican primaries of Arm strong county last week resulted in the nomination of G. S. Crosby, Esq., edi tor of the Free Press, for Congress; W. B. Meredith, Esq., for the State Senate, and A. D. Glenn and K. Daugh erty for the Assembly. Mr. Crosby formerly resided at Par ker and is very favorably known to many of our citizens. ' lie would make an active and faithful member of Con gress and we hope he may be nomin ated in that district. Mr. Meredith, who is presented for the Senate, was the nominee of the Re publicans of Armstrong county for that position four years ago. The rights of that county to the nomination were then conceded, but, through the influ ence of Don Cameron's then State Committee, the question as to which county should hare the candidate was referred to that body, and resulted in the nomination of Mr. Greer of this county, who was then faithfully serv ing Cameron. "ARTHUR has made a good Presi dent," his supporters say. But in what ? lie has simply been a negative President so far. That is, he has done nothing; had no policy of any kind, foreign or at home. Two hundred thousand majority against his ticket in New York probably taught him to be prudent and careful, and this is what his supporters now say has made him a good President. JAS. CAMPBELL, Esy , of Greenville, Pa., made our town a business visit on Monday last, and as usual pave our of- fice a call THE Chicago Tribune prints the names of all the delegates to the Re publican National Convention, with their Presidential preferences It gives Blaine 378 votes, Arthur 271 and Ed munds 70 on first ballot. SAMUEL J. TILDEN will be nominat ed by the Democrats for President, "if his health permits " But if Blaine is nominated bv the Republicans this week Mr. Tilden's health will be so bad by July, when the Democratic Convention meets, as not to permit him to run. The Frosts of Last Week We have made sufficient inquiries to enable us to say, that in this county the frosts of last week have done but little damage. The grain is not hurt except perhaps of some early rye that was in blossom. The fruit is is thought to be but little injured. Po tatoes and corn were so little hurt as not to amount to anything serious. Some plants were injured but none that cannot be replaced. Thursday night was the coldest but the weather being cloudy saved from harm. Many feared a frost like that of 1859, and all re joice that none such came. North of us in this State, however, the frosts seem to have been much more severe. Lawrence County The Republican primaries of Law rence came off last Saturday and the County Convention on Monday last. The result, on casting up the votes, showed A. L. Ilazen, Esq., the choice of that county for Judge, over Col. R. B. McComb and J. M. Martin, p]sq. Col. O. L. Jackson was nominated for Congress. The district is Lawrence, Beaver and Washington counties. Col Jackson was presented by the Re publicans of Lawrence county two years ago, but was unsuccessful. In view of the large Republican majority given by Lawrence county it would at this distance loek as very unsafe to again set her candidate aside, if she has the right to the nomination now claimed. For the Legislature, Henry C. Falls, Esq., and I)r Silas Stevenson, were nominated. What the Democrats are Doing. The Democratic primaries of this county take place on Saturday week, June 14, and their County Convention on the following Monday. They still nominate by what is called the "Dele gate system," sendirg two delegates from each district to a County Conven tion. These delegates, however, we believe they now generally instruct as to candidates, and if so it is a great im provement on the system, as it approxi mates the popular vote one. There is still room, however, under their sys tem for more or less of what is known as "log-rolling," or combinations being made in the conventions of delegates, which cannot arise under the popular vote plan. It requires a majority of a convention, however, to make a nomin ation. Their candidates for the principal offices so far as announced are : For Judge, Hon. James Bredin, Leving ston McQuistion, Esq., and Lewis Z. Mitchell, Esq.; Hon. Jacob Ziegler of the Herald for Assembly; Harrison Dyke, John C. Martin, W. I>. Walker, James Collins, John C. Kelly, James R. Pringle, Esq , Jacob Reott and Hugh McFadden for County Commis sioners; John W. Brown and J. G. Cornelius for Prothonotary; for Sheriff, F. C. Buhl, Eli Graham, A. I). Vande* ling and D. M. Ward; for Register and Recorder. W. J.McCarnes, William B. Bedillion and Alfred Aggas; for Coun ty Treasurer, Robert McElhaney, Esq. and Robert McKissick; for CouDty Auditors, James L. Hindman, W. S. Sipes, Andrew J. Harper, J. B. Steph enson, J. B. McDivittand H. 11. Ader hold. Under their call fur the election of delegates we notice they recognize the law requiring the officers holding the primaries to be sworn, There is not much stir manifested among tbcm as yet as to the choice of candidates. We understand, however, the contest for the Judge nomination will be a warmly contested one. CHICAGO CONVENTION. Assembled Yesterday. The Republican National Conven tion assembled in Chicago yesterday, June 3. Many of the delegates from the different States have been on the ground for some days past. The ex citement runs high, as to the nominee for President. But Blaine still leads all rivals and his friends are confident. The Pennsylvania delegates are all present and stand 4.'} lor Blaine to It for Arthur. Senator John Stewart is Chairman of the Pennsylvania delega tion and will present Blaine's name to the Convention, on behalf of the delegation. B. F. Jones of Pittsburg, has been selected as the member of tho National Committee for Pennsylvania, beating Chris Magee. Hon. (Jalusha A. Grow may be the permanent Chair man of the Convention. Hon. Powell C. Clayton, of Arkansas, a Blaine man, has ltcen named by the National Com mittee for temporary Chairman. The daily proceedings will be looked for with much interest. Will be in Butler. Col. Geo. W. Bain, of Kentucky, one of the most prominent National lecturers on Constitutional Prohibition, will be in Butler on June 22, and 23, Sabbath and Monday, and speak, of which due notice will be given. —Tne wisest man is he who thinks he js not so. COMMUNICATED. Letter from Alabama PICKENS VILLE, ALA , MAY 24, 1884, EDS. CITIZEN: Thinking that a short letter from this part of the coun try would probably be interesting to some of your readers, I will try to give some information which might be of some value to those who are contem plating' a change of base. This seems to be a very healthy place; very little sickness of any kind. The climate de lightful; warm enough to make thiugs grow, with a breeze blowing from the gulf that makes one feel good. Land is certainly very cheap, farms where every foot could be work ed selling from $2 to £2O per acre. Laod within a mile of the Pickens coun ty Court House, can be bought for from $5 to $lO per acre, which within ten years will be worth SSO per acre. A railroad is being built which is ex pected to run through the town. They can raise anything here that we can in Pennsylvania, besides a great man}' things that we cannot. Rice produces from 80 to 150 bushels per acre, corn from 30 to 70 bushels (shelled; per acre. Two crops of Irish potatoes can be raised in one year. Oats can be harvested and the ground plowed and planted in corn and make a crop. Mellons of all kinds, pumpkins, apples, peaches, pears, and all kinds of small fruits grow in abundance. Good and pure water in abundance. The people kind and generous to a fault. In poli tics I can express my views as plainly as anywhere in the North. The great need of the South is men who are not afraid to work. Mechanics, farmers and merchants, (no lawyers or doctors need apply) will be welcomed in anv community in this part of Alabama. The people here give their whole atten tion to cotton and do not try to raise any grain. There is not a thresher in this county, although I saw one piece of rve as nice as I ever saw anywhere, and there is some very good wheat. Now is the time to invest in Ileal Estate before the railroad is built to batter the shipping facilities. 1 expect to make this my future home but expect to return to Pennsylvania next week. S. A. ANDERSON. Tryon Mountains, North Caroli na, and the Valley of the Pacalet. FUR THE CITIZEN : Few Northern tourists know much about the mountain districts of Western North Carolina, and believing that a good many readers of the CITIZEN would be glad to see a letter from one whose experience has been somewhat general and varied in this locality, will be my present object in writing. I have both heard and read a good deal of the noted 'Thermal Belt' without getting fully satisfied on information, so I concluded the better way to get at it was to go for it, whether at the bottom of a mine or at the top of a mountain. One bright morning in the latter part of March, just as the peach trees were coming out in full bloom, two doctors and myself mounted our mules and as cended the rugged mountains to gather the practical demonstrations. The task grew somewhat, arduous, for the summer sun had already become quite hot, but we pressed on believing that "where there is a will there is a way" until we reached an open table land where we called a halt, refreshing our exhausted energies w'th some of the delicious native wine of that coun try, there taking in a broad view of the grandest mountain scenery. This wonderful "belt" is about one half mile in width and twenty in length and is situated in latitude 25° traversing the Southern exposure of Tryon mountain and is about two thousaud feet above sea level- The temperature rises about 10° in an elevation of one thousand feet and is covered with a rich arable soil capa ble of raising the fiuest varieties of all kinds of fruits and is entirely free from frost, the peach and wild grape are a never failing crop, from which native wines of the finest flavor can be made in abundance. As an evidence of the magic growth of fruit, is the unusual short time of maturing. On the first day of April peaches are in full bloom and are frequent ly ripened ready for the market on the twenty-fifth'of May, and on the twenty fifth of April I ate ripe strawberries that were just twenty-five days from the time they were in blossom until they were ripened for the market. But one most remarkable fruit pro duceJ, as an indication of its thermal character, is the fig, which though not of the earliest variety, yet thev can be perfectly ripened and matured. All over this mountain region it is thickly covered with valuable timber, black walnut, chestnut, locust, ash, hickory, oak, pine, &c. f which grow to a large size and can be made profitable for lumbering, and underneath the sur fice in many parts it contains rich de posits of "free gold". From its embryo state and the rich deposit 3 of iron ore, gold, tin, mica, &c. that lie latent in the bowels oftheearth. it is safe to eay there is yet a future for this section of which there is so little known. Thousands of acres that have never heard the sound of the woodman's axe, invite the energies of our crowded towns and cities, and come within the reach of the most limited means; can be bought from two to ten dollars per acre. The "belt" appears to girdle all the mountains knowu as the Tryon Moun tain Range at about the same height und width above the Pacalet river and the soil is most productive where it has the fairest southern expofcura. I am told that when there is snow in the valleys a foot deep and masses on the mountains it is barely perceptible in the belt and that a light snow melts there as fast as it falls while the ground below is entirely covered, thus proving the "thermal" is &11 in the soil and lay of the land. It is still a question what crops eaa be most profitably grown in this region, but it would seem as though nature had especially adapted it to the growth jl.nd maturing of nearly all kinds of fruiU, some of which are as fine as I have ever seen oa wide of the Rocky Mountains. Indian corn is the universal grain crop, though wheat and clover are grown and little land besides the valleys has been cleared for cultivation; and in some of them cotton and tobatco were largely grown "before the change in their system of labor." But the grandest and best use of this I "belt" is its health privinpr tonic to the ' ! sick ami suffering. Its pure mountain I air of uniform and equable temperature j ! secures to all yet iu the early stages of disease good health. Here the diseases of the lower lands, j fevers and agues, are not known in | ' tLis section. A pure case of pulmonary consump tion has not been known in the iinnie ; diate Piedmont region of Western North i Carolina. There may be much surprise express ed by those who read of this that a land or place so near and so highly favored as this should escape public at tention. This is no new discovery These conditions were fully stated many years ago and again of more re cent date in some of the Medical Re ports. Hut want of easy access, to come and see, shut out this choseu spot from the public eye and hindered the few who had heard of it from making proof of its advantages. Now they have the Spartansburg & Ashvi'.le R. R., affording an opportunity to the weakest invalids to prove for themsel ves the realities of the climate. To reach this health giving spot go to Tryon Station where you will be met by tbe hospitable face of Dr. McAboy. liutler, June 2,'84. J. W. I. I —Rev. L. 11.
