The fourth ward public school opens to-morrow. t The moon being invisible the street lights now burn regularly till eleven o'clock. Trout fishing has been occasionally indulged in during the past week with tolerable success. A young man wants to know if it is si greater sin to take a quiet ride in the ('jujitry on Sunday than to take a stroll tniougn the streets. . The city was alive yesterday with bright-faced farmers. The beautiful weather has enabled them to make a line start with this year's crop. There was a musical biree at the Charlotte Institute for Young Ladies Friday night, which was attended by Uic parents of the pupils. , The managing man of the picnic has l'ushed.back his hair, adjusted his coat :llar and is getting ready for business.

The second annual fair of Pomona Grange will be held; at Poplar Tent, in Cabarnls county, on the ISth and 14 th of August. The grange held a meeting recently at Poplar Tent and made the preliminary arrangements. C.J. Harris, Thos. H. Robinson and S. R. Andrews were appointed a committee, witli pow er to select two outside farmers, to make all the arrangements as to grounds, pre miums, &c. Dr. Davis, Dr. Columbus Mills and Capt. J no. Woodhouse have in charge the selection of a speaker, and Mrs. C. J. Harris, with the lady mem bers of the grange, has the manage ment of the ladies' department. All the farmers in Cabarrus and adjoining counties are invited to participate in the exhibition. The fair held by the f range last year was eminently success ul, and its success as a purely agricul tural exhibition partly inspired the or ganization of the Carolina Fair associa tion which is destined to become such an important factor in elevating the farming interest of Western Xorth Carolina. St. Patrick's Day. To-morrow is St. Patrick's Day, and we see that the Irishmen in many places are preparing to celebrate it with the usual ceremonies. St. Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland, was born, ac cording to most authorities, near the site of Kilpatrick, at the mouth of the Clyde, in Scotland, in 372, and died at Down, Ulster, Ireland, about 4G4. At the age of sixteen he was carried a cap tive to Ireland by a band of marauders, but made his escape .after six months, and returned to Scotland. He was car ried off a second time, and after his escape resolved to become a missionary to Ireland, was ordained in Scotland, and after a long preparation, was con secrated bishop. Having previously visited Gaul and - Italy, he went to Ire land 432, and preached with such effect that, although not the first to introduce Christianity into that country, he has always received the credit of its general conversion. He baptized the kings of Dublin and Munster, and the sons of the King of Connaught, with the gteater pait of their subjects, appointed bishops and held councils, and so extended the church that before his death nearly the whole country was converted. SuptenM Court. ' In the Supreme Court on Thursday' the consideration of appeals set for hear ing at the end of the docket was re sumed and causes were disposed of as follows : S. A.

The passengetcarV on the Charlotte, Columbia & Augusta Railroad are re ceiving a new coat of paint. A train of the iiewly painted makes a hand some appearance. , i It i$ arnjicunced In Wilmington that the Baltimore line of steamers, which ronnects, we believe, with the Carolina Central Railroad, is to be withdrawn when the : next .steamer arrives. Xo cause assigned. It is expected that the lipe.. will only remain broken a few days. ' The business of the Charlotte, Colum bia j& . Augusta' Railroad In February was $8,000 above what it was for the same month last year. The increase will be still greater this montli. The Wilmington Sun says: "Capt. Everett emptied passengers in the city, from one of the handsomest palace cars ever seen on the Carolina Central. It was built at the company's shops, at Laurinburg and is a work that shows the capability of this road to turn out its own cars with as much beauty and perfection as can be done at the North ern car shops. The car is named E." A Perkititcnt Tramp. ' Close to Pineville, as the Charlotte, Columbia & Augusta train was on the down trip the other day, the bell sound ed over the engineer's head and he stopped. Conductor Clarkson got out and asked what was the matter, and a tramp, seated on the platform of the mail car, told him to "go ahead, cap. I've put the lire out." A spark from the engine had fallen on the tramp's back, burned a hcle in his coat and singed his hair. He explained that he had pulled the bell-cord because he couldn't put the fire out in the breeze which the motion of the train created. Then they snatched him off of the plat form, quick, and went ahead. A few stations below, somebody went around behind the sleeper, and a tramp, with a hole in the back of his coat, was seated on the platform. They took him off again, and went ahead. At another station they happened to glance under one of the cars and there he was on the trucks, looking quite innocent and con tented. For the third time he was in vited to disembark, and did so with all alacrity, and the next time anybody on the train laid eyes on that tramp.it was at Doko, near Columbia, and he was comfortably coiled up in a retired spot in the second-class car. Nobody had ever before seen a tramp with just this amount of hang-onativeness. Govaiping'H. Mr. Harrison Watts will be absent in Europe about six weeks. It is reported that another Georgia belle will visit the city after Lent. The german which was to have come oft' Friday night will probably be had one night this week. Mr. and Mrs. Jas. II.
