An Intelligent Official. ! ( 0 , At the last term of the Federal Cburtin States ville, there was a witnessone Anchisi, an Italian and a government detective. When his name was called, a physician of the town, who is as well-known for his wag gery as for his extensive - reading,' turned to Bosher, of ' Raleigh, a ' deputy- marshal, whom, at the time, he did not know, with the question;: ;"Istbat the same Anchisi who was carried from' the flames of Troy upon :the shoulders' of neas??. ; 'I de clare,'1 was the response, "I don't know it he is I never heard of it." . The physician got up and; left, fully- convinced that the are not allowed. Many will testify to the same, and bear, us out in this statement.

We have just received . a handsome copy of Bachelder's Popular Resorts, and; How to Reach Thfcia. It is a brief account of all the principal Summer resorts, with advice con cerning the best routes by which to get to them. The book is from the press of John B Bachelder, Boston, and is handsomely printed. It is also illustrated with 152 wood cuts, by the best engravers. , Horner & Graves' School. We haye before us the catalogue of th e excellent military school of Horner & Graves, located at Hillsboro, for the term of 1874-75. The total attendance daring the last term, was 114, from which we judge that the merits of this really fine school, are be ing apprtciated at home and abroad. In the list of cadets, we observe the name of our young friend, D. Harvey Hill, son of Gen D II Hill of this city, and it giyes us pleas ure to note that he is the Captain of the ca dets. The Market House Nuisance. A communication will be seen in another place from Messis Adams & Mann, the Mar ket House lessees, in reference to an article in the local columns of the Obskbvbb, yes terday. They slightly mistake our position. We did not charge them with countenanc ing drunken and blasphemous negroes in the Market House, but on the pavement in front of and about it. They agree with us, as will be seen, as to the nuisance which is daily created there, but claim that it is not their business to correct this evil, but that of the city authorities. Then we call on the police to look into the matter. mined to never again try a classical Joke on a United States Marshal. : - - - - Playing' Marbles With a Cross-Eyed Man. He was bald-headed and in trouble. Re marked he. (and there was a baleful glitter in his dark blue eye): "Did you ever play marbles with a cross-eyed man ?" "Why ?" asked we. "Don't do it ; he'll fool you, No process of reasoning can sound his inten tions ; by no system of calculation can you tell where he will shoot next. Watch him, with a murderous eye resting on your taw ; he shoots (like a Granger) and out goes the middle man." "We marveled much at this strange story," winked at him and he followed us: As he was leaning over the counter, he capped the climax by telling how the same cross-eyed man one day picked an unsuspecting buz zard off the fence. The buzzard thought he was looking the other way. surrounding the Market House. "Will, the WVT-mW9 oarnieeu. C A t X 1 - OUR GOODS ARE FOR SALE! N OW 18 T H E T I'M E TO BUY!

The following, which we clip from the Atlanta Constitution, of the 13th, has a local interest ; "Yesterday just after the down train on the State road passed Marietta, an infant six months old died in the hands of a nurse. and was brought to. this city. Sanford Bell, the conductor on the train, rendered the lady all the assistance possible. She reached here with $2 in her pocket. From her we learned the following facts concerning the infant: Mr-W C Sutber and wife, who orig inally went from North Carolina, died in Texas some time since, leaving six children, of which the in rant was one. A relative from North Carolina went after the children. end the infant was taken sick at Nashville and left. A nurse was sent for the child, and she started for Concord, N C, when the child died as state!. That christian gentle man, W J Houston, bearing of the condi tion of the lady, immediately procured a coffin for the child, and furnished transpor tation for botn to Charlotte." St. Swlthiu's Day. The 15th of July, by the Roman Catholic calendar, is St Swithin's Day, of which it was written : "St Swithin's Day, gif ye do rain, for forty days it will remain, St Swithin's Day, and ye be fair, for forty days 'twill rain nae mair." The legend is that St Sw ithin , bishop of Winchester, who died in 862, desired to be buried in the churchyard of the minister, that the "sweet rain of heaven might fall upon his grave." At canonization the monks thought to honor the saint by removing his body into the choir, and fixed the 15th of July for the ceremony, but it rained day af ter day for forty days, so that the monks 8a w that the saints were averse to their pro ject and wisely abandoned it. The St Swith in, of Scotland, is the St Martin, of Bouil lons.

' Aldermen Dowd presided at the Mayor's Court, yesterday, in the absence of Mayor Johnston, and did something which should entitle hira to the thanks of the wli-le city for all time to come. Ella Bell and Joseph ine Hammond were up for being drunk and disorderly and nuisances generally. They were required to give bond in the saui of $500, and failing to do this, were committed to jail. In behalf of the community we thank Alderman Dowd fur this action It will rid us of these depraved creatures until Court, at least, and we doubt not that then Judge Schennk will continue the good work which Maj Dowd began, yesterday, and ex tend their term. Blind Crump and his wife were in the Court for an affray. The woman was fined $1 and costs. ' Lovers in Trouble. A portion of the town had lots of fun, yes terday afternoon, out of an old colored cou ple who proposed to join themselves togeth er as man and wife. Isaac Alexander and Sophy Johnston were the names. After the marriage license had been filled up, the prospective groomsman ascertained that ho lacked a dollar of having enough to pay for it, and by no hocus pocu3 conld tiie two raise the required amount. Justice Martin theatened to prosecute Sophy if she got married, saying that her husband was liv ing, and the couple repaired to Justice Dav idson with their complaint against Justice MartiD. A crowd assemble 1 and followed them into the office and afterwards around the streets. Sophy was eager to get mar ried, but Isaac began to "take water" on the proposition and finally walked off, . buv Sophy followed him with the remark : "Now, Mr Alexander I'se gwine to 'pend on you." She afterwards went after him, re marking as she left the office, twisting her hankerchief. that she "was gwine to marry de one she loved." Sophy's entire dress consisted of a frock, a hat, a tiltereen and a pair of slippers. Of stockings she had on none, and divers other articles which go to make up a lady's ward robe, were wanting. The parties are aged, respectively, about 65 and 55. The afiair occasioned any quantity of merriment, but it is one of those things which cannot be made to appear to the reader as it did to those who witnessed it. M limil..

A man and his wife lived in a Southern city; not long ago the wife ran away and came to Charlotte. Here she met and fell in love with a Phillip Rayi but this Phillip differs a little from Tennyson's Phillip, for he is married and has a wife living in a distent city - ' The at traction was mutual; they loved each other very mach ; no doubt about that ; and were livingAogether In a state of supreme happi ness, when, lo, Enoch steps np and in !

Editors Observer : ' In yonr.remarks in yesterday's paper, re garding the Canada Thistle, you made the inquiry, "where did they come from," and "could some of Scotch friends give some in formation on that point." In response to which the following may be of some use. Thistle is the common name of several genera of spiny plan ts of the natural order composite ; there are about thirty species of them and mostly natives of Europe. The Canada Thistle, C -4rvense" (Scop) resem bles the Scotch Thistle only in the flower, the latter being very hardy and has very spiny margined leaves and a branching prickly stem, and flourishing best near sal( water. They are all considered weeds, and from Canada, where there are supposed to have been first introduced by the early set tlers, they overspread nearly all the culti vated lands in the United States. The thistle became the national emblem of Scotland after the defeat of the Danes, who invaded the Kingdom, and. who, in order to surprise the Scottish camp at night, were ordered to march barefooted and when near the camp got into a thicket of thistles and in their torture made such a noise as to alarm the Scotch, who immediately turned on their assailants' and routed them with great slaughter, and the thistle (Marianns) was then adopted as the : national emblem, With the motto nemo mejpune lacessH..'!Z ' In ; your jocular way;'you;;reniarked. that the appearance of .the Canada thistle and that of the Scotch was simultaneous here.' Perhaps that was so, the thistle being the Scottish national emblem, ind.fwherever it goes it shows1 the national character in al ways coming to Uie front and spieading it self jont, making itself ' both seen and felt, and making: an unconquerable resisLance to all efforts for its extermination. ; ; " The house known as tne President's House.
