Newspaper Borrowers-A gentleman of this city informs us that he has four neighbors who habitually borrow his copy of the Observer, and who read it with as much regularity as he does; Frequently, he says, if he happens to rise in the morning later than usual, he finds that some ef them have taken it out of his yard, and it is late in the day when he gets thepaper and then it is. torn sometimes into shreds. A person who will habitually borrow 'a paper for which his neighbor has subscribed and paid, is mean enough to steal the hat from the head of a blind nigger, and we hope every person who has borrowed the Obser ver this morning will see this item and find out what we think of newspaper borrowers.

The whole time of the Court was occupied yesterday in the ex amination of witnesses in: the case of Wm Capps, charged with stealing a quantity of powder from the magazine of Messrs Grier & Alexander in this city some time last Fall. Twenty-seyen witnesses for the State were sworn, out not more than 15. of these . were examined. There were about 15 witnesses sworn for the' defence, and of these not more than 4 or 5 were examined. Capps alone was on trial. J P Green and R B Turner, alleged accomplices, were out on bond and fled the city before the case was called. Tom Caldwell, colored, another alleged accom plice, turned State's evidence and was the principal witness against Capps. The Court House was crowded nearly all day by persons anxious to hear the testi mony in this case, which has excited very considerable' interest in the community. Capps is represented by Messrs J H ' Wil son&Soa and Gov Vance. The prosecu tion is conducted by Solicitor Carson and Gen Rufus Barringer..

There is no pos sible chance to elect CoL Hoke as he has no. strength outside of the bitter opponents of Mr Schenck, for it is wellknown that though a candidate for political honors in his own county ever since the close of the war he never succeeded in getting theJ nomination for any position either the Legislature or for the conventions. There ir some ob jections to the record of Mr . Schenck,. but are they such as to unfit him for that- high and responsible position? .Most all who heard him in vindication of himself are sat isfied that he has neen greatly misrepresent ed, while a large part are satisfied that he, under the trying circumstances in which he was placed, acted as well as most men would or could haye done. Let it be., kept before the people that Col Hpke has no. strength except with the violent friends of Judge Shipp, and that he being is made a toolof by the Radicals to re-elect Judge "Logan, as it is evident from their past history that they cannot be relied upon. They will not de sert their party ; they will not support Col Hoke, and all conservatives who vote for Col Hoke are virtually contributing to the election of Judge Logan. The interest of the county and that of his party all loudly call upon Judge Shipp to rally his friends in behalf of the nominee, laying aside all personal feelings and con siderations. If he does he would stand high er than ever in the estimation of his coun trymen, thus demonstrating that the lore ef country is paramount with him rather than personal considerations. If he would, it would prove the wisest step of his life for his future. Citizen of Mecklenburg. Charlotte, May 24. OBITITARY., ...
