A cattlesdrover who was bringing a herd of the horny headed to this market, lost thirty head, aboutj forty miles from jthis city. He had stopped at a farm 'house on the route for the night and had penned his cattle up. They broke down the fence and escaped. They were bought in different w localities and at different times and the drover has no hopes of recovering them, i J !

There are two presses here but neither is now at work. The proprietors claim that there is "too little margin between the costs and the receipts and that they can not make anything out of the business as it is. They threaten to ;Btop work alto gether unless they can get more from the manufacturers in New York, They are onfca"strike"now and are making an effort lor increased prices, and we trust thut they may prove successful. captured at Last. i Officers H. E. Schriver and C. H. i i i Strode succeeded last night in making the capture of Randall Jordan, colored, in Cape Fear township. He was brought to this city and committed to jail to await his trial. It will be remembered that this man escaped from officer Schriver on the 19th of July last, he being then in'' custos dy charged with au assault and battery, and that in an attempt to recapture him, the officer accidentally shot and killed Willliam Jones, who had been summoned to assist in making the arrest.) Since that time Jordan has eluded pursuit and cap ture until bis arrest yesterday.- Monday's Regatta. ?he regatta which is to be sailed on Monday next bids fair to be one of unu sual interest, as it s to be the last of the! season. The Eestless now wears the cham pion flag and the other yachts of the squad ron will endeavor to take it from her. The boats are being well "groomed," and each commander is confident of his,yacht's success, if the wind and tide is in the riglt direc ion. The following have entered : Restless Capt. P. Cowan.

We are pleased to learn that at this time the prospects of the rice crop on the Cape Fear are very promising. The crop was injured very little by the storm and the birds, those delicious little pests, are scarcer than usu al this season. As to the quality of the rice it will be impossible to tell that fully until it is harvested. j We have been endeavoring, for several days past, u obtain a close estimate as to the size of the crop this year in, this section and havo ascertained that it! will probably reach as high as 30,000 or 35, 000 bushels, as against 10,000 to 12,000 bushels last year. We could not get the exact figures. j j The large increase of the crop, this year, over that from last year, augurs very favorably for a revival of ' this branch vf industry in this section. Yq understand, too, that aa increase has been marked of late in the value of the rice lands and that there has been considerable, enquiry for them recently.They are splendid lands and ate . absolutely inexhaustible in fertility. Previous to the war the rice crops on the Cape Fear averaged some 250,000 bushels yearly and a few favorable seasons, with good prices, would donbtleas soon increase the production beyond those figures. The base-baU star is iu the ascendant. T Only Thirty Days. Mike Peden, the vagrant little scamp spoken of iu yesterday's issue j as having been arrested and locked up, was this morning ordered! by the Mayor to be kept in durance vile for thirty days, which is the full extent of the law. Mike certainly could expect no more than the law allows, and consequently ought to be satisfied. His board and lodging will be furnished lree of cost. I Utile Straws. We are not a prominent success as a critic aud yet sometimes we find little things in our exchanges which will pro voke a wondering smile. For 'instance, Maj. Creecy, of the Elizabeth City Eoon omiStt who is au accemplished writer,' speaks in his last issue of 'an elegaut bottle of syrup," which made us wonder if syrup is ever really put up in elegant bottles, and yesterday 's Index Appeal, which is generally so correct, uses the word "gainsayed" for "gainsaid.'' These are mere straws:aud we notice them as much in our own extenuation as for any thing Use, and they go to show that even the most accomplished writers; will some times be guilty of very peculiar blunders Selah! , i The BevlYal in the Second I Baptist Church We are pleased to learjn that the revival of religion in the Second Baptist Church in this city, which has already produced such good results, is still in progress. Rev. J. P. KiDg, jthe Pastor, has labored for six week past entirely unassisted and as he is-nearly exhausted by the continued strain upon his powers, he has telegraph ed to his brothe.,Rev. J, E.1 King, who is Pastor of the Baptist Church in Monroe, to come to his assistance. That gentleman has responded and is ex- pected here to-morrow. He will preach on Sunday morning and evening and will also labor here throughout the ensuing weefe. Thus far, ' during this revival, there have been some eighty conversion?, including twenty whom Mr. King ex pects to baptize in j the river at the foot of Queen street, on Sunday attern on, between 3 and 4 o'clock. The Barksdales. James Barksdale, the' man who killed Dixon at Yazoo City, is la graduate of Trinity College, in this State. A frie d of ours, who was at the College with him, showed us a photograph of him a day or two ago. He is quite a young man and comes from a family renowned for pluck and good looks. It is1 related of an uncle of his, a Major Barksdale, that as he was lying murtally wounded on a battle-field in Virginia, a Federal officer appeared to him and Masonic signs were exchanged between the two. The Federal then produced a canteen of water and held it to the lips of the 1 dying man who, a'though consumed with thirst, re fused to drink from it, and died reviling and abusing the other, although, , as he himself said, he knew that he was a fellow Mason. , How to Care for Canary Birds. - Miss A. M. sends Rural Life these selected "Rules forjCare of Canary Birds." They are seasonable, and apparently worthy of heediug by those who keep that popular pet, the canary: 1. During the summer season you should have both a dir inking cup aud a bathing dish in the cage, and should wash them! twice a day, and fill with fresh water: The seed cup1 should be filled every morning. 1 I 2. The room in which the bird is kept should never be warmer than seventy de grees. : 3. Feed plain food. Now and then a lump of sugar does no harm, but as , a general rule avoid sweets. Keep the cuttle-fish dry and clean, and jfeed only fresh and dry seed. 4. Never place a cage where a draught can strike the bird. 5. Never smoke in a room where your bird is kept, as the odor of a cigar is ftil to canaries, ! . j . 6, As a general ruW, toever keep the bird in a painted cage; for the birds will peck at the wrires,) and it will lead to disease. 7. When your bird is shedding feath ers, which is ;enera!ly styled moultiak avoid draughts of air. j By obeying these simple direction, yon can keep birds in excellent health foryears .... j . . The schooner Btssie E. Dickinson, Standish, cleared at Philadelphia on the 3rd insL for this port, i , Plaid ceckties are likely to be popular this season. ... With the approach of th theatrical season: bonnets, of course, grow larger. j.- Jm The! frieathips of youth Jare founded on sentiment; the dissmsior s of age re suit from opinionl Flowers sweeten the air, rejoice the eye, nnK us wun nature ana lunocence and are something to love. 1 '5. The business ol hie is to go forward; he wLu eee evil in prospect meets it on the way; but he who catches it by retro spection turns back to find it. n Affections, uke spring flowers, break through the frozen ground at last, and the heart, which ! seeljs but for another heart to make it happy, will never seek in; vain. Important to the Afflicted. We would advise all who may need the advice of a physician, to either call oi write to Dr. Uouertson, 19. So. Eutaw St., Baltimore, Md.i who: from 15 years expe rience in Hospital jatid Special Practice, cruai&ntees a cure in all diseases bf the Urinary Oryaiw and of the Nervous Sys tem, Organic aud Seminal Weakness, Im- r potency (loss of sexual pdwer), Nervous Debility and trembling, Palpitation of the Ueait, dimness of sight or giddiness, Noc turnal Emissions, fcc., all resulting from abuses in youth, or excesses in( mauhooJ , also all skin and blood diseases quickly cured.

X Is it Possible I That a remedy made of such common, simple plants as Hops, Buchu, Mandrake, Dandelion, &c, make so many and such raarvelons and' wonderful cures, as nop Bitters do ? It jmustbe, for when old and young, rich and 'poor, Pastor and Doctor, Lawyer and Editor, al testify to havng been cured by them, we must believe and doubt no longer. See other column.
