Another party will leave Charlotte next week for Cleaveland Springs. ,A colored man in the employ of Messrs. Cuthbertson. & Long, fell in a fit on Trade street, near their place of business yesterday about noon. Resto ratives were applied and the man re covered. The annual session of the Grand Lodge of the Independent Order, of Good Samaritans and Daughters of Samaria, in the United States, began in Washington City Thursday morning at 10 o'clock. Among the delegates are representatives from the North Caro lina branch of the order. The threshing machine and the pat ent reaper are beginning to get in their work in the more Southern States where harvesting and threshing are fairly in progress. These items, in this latitude, come in between the college commence ments and the cotton blooms and will very early begin to lend their interest to the local columns of The Observkr. The picnic of the children of the Pres byterian Sunday schools takes place to day at Bellemont Park, than which a better place could not have been select ed by the managers. The children meet at their respective churches at 8 : 30 this morning, and at 9 o'clock the train which is to carry them to the picnic grounds will leave the Trade street crossing. Wearing- Apparel Exempt State Treasurer Worth, replying to an inquiry from Mr. M. Cronly, tax as sessor for Wilmington township, de cides, as he says with the approval of the attorney general, that wearing ap parel is exempt from taxation. Under the machinery act of the Legislature of l876-'77 this class of property had to be listed for taxation along with other property and this decision of the treas urer, exempting it now, is worth the at tention of asseoraandj)thers. Compliment to a Sermon. The Morganton Blade thinks highly of the annual sermon delivered last Sunday night by Rev. W. R. Atkinson before the cadets of the Carolina Mili tary Institute, of this city. After copy ing the report of the sermon, as it ap Ie;ired in The Observer, the Blade xays: "These are words of wisdom. IVwider over it, and be governed by this teaching. This is the, road to 'good gov ernment,' 'better times,' prosperity and I'leace." Cnuias; Bwa the Appropriation. In the legislative, executive and judi cial appropriation bill, as reported f romthe House appropriations commit tee a few days ago by Chairman Atkins, and as it passed the House, the appro priation for the contingent expenses of LUe United States assay office in this city is reduced from $1,000, the' amount of jthe present appropriation, ' to 8250, vhicll is the amount which this office -got during its starving-out period two years ago. The office at Denver gets :18a)0 and that at Boise City $7,000, and why thi3 discrimination should be made aghuwt. the 5harlotte office does not appear; but so it is, and the bill will , doubtless pass the 'Senate with the same provision and . be thus j. finally ratified. As a matter of course this appropria tion is not intended to cover any part of Xhe salary of the assayer or any of his assistants, but onlv for the contingent 'expanses for which purpose it is about. tj) jf 4 of what it should be. 'Whp KVcurvionto CJreenTille, The GreinvlUe excursion was still the top;c yesterday; among those who went. It is unanimously voted to have been a roost delizhtful trio. The train left here with eight cars - very comfortably filled. The morning run over the smooth road-bed of vine Alr-l4ne was greatly en loved, and at nearly all station a few persons were picked up, so that- when the train reached Greenville, a little after 1 1 o'clock, it emptied 1 into 5 that beautiful mountain city a large number of excursionists.

The ceremony of AWARDING THE PRIZES was of a very interesting character. President Hepburn explained to the as semblage the method by which this was done. The-young men stood written ex aminations on Latin, Greek, and math ematics during the session. The papers were signed with ficticious names and sent to professors in other colleges, or to distinguised scholars in the country and these gentlemen' decided who were entitled to preference. The Latin pa perspwerfr,sen$totheprofessor 0f this department -in Erskme College; the Greek papers to the professor in the Johns IiopkinsUniversity4n Baltimore ; and the mathematics, i papers to Wash ington and Lee University.

Col. McRae was chairman ox this committee and was allowed to make the report himself. He ' complimented the ' speaking as a Khole, and said that the contest lay be tween Mr. W. B. Jennings and Mr. . Z. Dunlap, but after several hours' de liberation, the committee .felt con strained to givethe medal to Mr. Dun lap. . . - The announcement of the names of the succesf ul competitors (all of whieh were given in yesterdays report) was received with loud applause. Judge Fowle, at the request of the president, made the presentations. His speeches were exceedingly apt, and marked by a classic finish, and an eloquence peculiar u ramseir. ROLL OF HONOR. President Hepburn read the roll of mnor. This includes the voune men in each class, who have averasred over 93, the maximum being 100. This list is as ioi tows: Senior Class B. P. Reid and T. P. Ramsay. Junior Class J. P. Paislev and P. M. Brown. Sophomore Class II. L. Smith and A. C. Mcintosh. Freshman Class E.IW. Smith. J. P. Munroe, J. W. Reid, M. W. Saffold, T. D. Crawford and D. W. Bethea, Jr. Preparatory Class J. W. Laffertv and R. N. Bracketi There was a little occurrence Wed nesday night just after the society speaking, that was NOT ON THE PROGRAMME. This consisted of a presentation to Mr. A. Hodges of a gold medal by his friends of the Philanthropic Society. Mr. Hodges was a competiter of Mr. J. W. Osborne for the debator's medal, and the contest being close, his friends desired to show their appreciation of him and took this method of doing so. The presentation was made by Rev. W. S. Lacy, of Jonesboro. in a capital speech. THURSDAY NIGHT. . There is no dancing at Davidson, but the acclesiastical courts cannot, if they would, prohibit quiet flirtations on the lawns, in the brilliantly lighted halls and in nooks and corners which the students may have selected probably six months oerore. The night was wholly given up to social pleasure, and with the beginning of it, the power of the reportonal arm ceases. He can on- y say that everybody seemed delighted and that it was after midnight when the lights were put out; and to- tell what disposition was made of THE REGALIAS. Mr. T. G. Hardie, chief marshal, pre sented his to Miss Bessie Wriston, of Charlotte; Mr. E. L. B. Davidson to Miss Louie Morehead, of Charlotte ; Mr. D. Nesbit to Miss Julia Jaekson, of Charlotte; Mr. J. J. Covington to Miss Addie Young, of Charlotte; Mr. T. B. Frasier to Miss Sallie'Stirewalt, of Da vidson College; Mr. J. -Libcott to Miss Fannie Brady, of Davidson College ; Mr ti. Jt.

Twentr men. rank and file, of the Charlotte Grays,' boarded the excursion train on the Air-Line, Thursday morn ing, and were in due course pf time landed in Spartanburg, S. C whither they went by invitation of the Spartan Rifles, to participate in the military ex ercises there. They were met at the depot by the Rifles and the Butler Guards, or lireenviiie, and tooK their place in the procession. They, were elegantly dined at the armory of the Rifles and after dinner participated in a shooting match for a silver pitcher. This was won by Mr. J. t. jfreeiand, coior- bearer of the Charlotte Urays, who brought it home in triumph. The Grays were reviewed with the other military companies, by Gov, Simpson and Adju-tant-General Mqise, and, we doubt not, acquitted themselves with credit. Every courtesy and hospitality was shown the visitors by the Spartan Rifles arid they returned home delighted .with their ex perience and tiled with appreciative rem emb ranees , of the attentions and kindnesses shown, them during tlwir istajyUfc Mrtahurg. ft . iUl Escape, and Be-Capture of Qn Byers. fi.Gns 'Byers, one of the colored "store robbers, whd' was 1 arrested ,her last Tuesday evening, was take by Wed nesday afternoon's, train to Richmond, where there were good reasons' ior De lieving the fine set of harness recently stolen from CoL Frank Coxe could be found. Byers was taken, handcuffed, in charge of Capt V. E. McBee and Po liceman Farrington. Thursday; morn ing this officer, having Byers .'in the room with himself at a hotel, and the door locked, dropped off to sleep, naving at that time been on duty continuously for more than forty-eight-hours, and awoke to find the bird flown, ihandcuns and all. This "intelligence created somewhat of a sensaUort; yesterday in this city, where Byers is known as a desperate and dangerous man; and It will there fore be learned with pleasure that at 11 tclocki lastnigbtfMayorsborne re ceived Ja telegram- mronmng mm or Byers,' recapture. As an off-set to their temporary bad luck with this prisoner, Messrs; McBee and Farrington found in th stnre Of John and Mike Kelly, CoL Coxs harness; which they secured.

There is an ease of manner and a thorough self-possession about the cadets, even the youngest of them, on their appearance in pubac which is always a subject of remark, and as a rule their matter is, not inferior to their COMMENCEMENT DAY. Among the attendants upon the exer cises in the chapel yesterday, commence ment day, were quite a number of visi tors from other States from which the institution draws its patronage. The room was well filled by a first rate audience. The exercises of the morniner were introduced with a prayer by Rev. A. A. Boshamer, of the Methodist church. The audience was welcomed in a short i and tasteful address by T. S. Carter, of South Carolina, who won the second ' distinction and with it the right to de- iver the salutatory address. IheJi followed the remaininer essavs and orations in the following order: lh8 Crisis of Life: by J. B. Guess, of South Carolina. The Power of Mind : bv A. K. Sanders. of South Carolina. The Claims of the Times upon the Young Men of the South ; by T. S. Car ter, of South Carolina. The Late System of Slavery an the South, the Feudal System Revived;. by: A. Gibert, of South Carolina. The Voices of the Dead : bv Hasell Thomas, of North Carolina. The Duties of Life More than Life : by R. E. Wylie, of South Carolina. Ihe speeches were well delivered and the essays well read. Elocution is a specialty in the Institute and finds an excellent illustration in the superin tendent himself, who devotes much care and attention to this branch. The superintendent then delivered the certificates of graduation to the members of the class, accompanying the presentation with an appeal to them to discharge the duties of life with the promptness and fearlessness of a true soldier. After a recess of ten minutes, the valedictory, short, pointed and in ex cellent taste, was spoken by Hasell Thomas. Then came the ADDRESS OF REV. E. CAPERS. Ill introducing Mr. Capers, the super intendent said he presented an ex-cadet, and an old Confederate soldier who had won his title on the field. Mr. Capers is a delightf ul speaker graceful, impres sive and unostentatious, with a face as open and winning as his manner. He spoke to the young men from the stand point oi an ex-cadet, and endeavored to mpress . upon them the necessity of maintaining a character that would be irreproachable in the eyes of their fel low men, taking the ground that if they kept this constantly in view, success must crown their efforts. The address was recived with marked attention and the speaker Was warmly congratulated at the close. THE BALL. In the evening the cadets gave their annual ball in the chapel. It was very argely attended probably the largest ever had there ; and was well managed and heartily enjoyed by ail the gay par ticipants. Railroad Notes. This is the season when engineers and conductors wish they were depot clerks. In the winter season clerks wish they were engineers and conductors. Sleeping cars have? been put on the trains on the Western North Carolina Railroad, and passengers can sleep the trip out both ways from Salisbury to the head of the road, and from the head Of the rfed to Salisbury. As the day train on the Air-Lane rail road going to Atlanta was near the 147th mue post, a horse in a held under took to outrun $he train.. He succeeded for a short distance but when he got to m a x : i i a . i i me ience oe inea io jump over ine stock gap and fell on his head and broke his neck. He did not kick. The engineer stopped the train just opposite the horse and the conductor examined mm and found there was not a scratch on him, except a slight contusion on the head, but he was as dead as if he had been mashed to pieces. The engineer says that the engine never struck him. The directors ot the .North Carolina Railroad were in session at the Central Hotel in this city; yesterday. Only rou tine business was transacted.
