Lost his Bat. A day or two ago a rustic loohiog man borrowed Master Bennie Cobb's hat to step out Jor a few minutes. The minutes lengthened into hours and hours into days and yet the man or fist has not been seen. Bennie was on the street yesterday with a double-bfrel shot gun and a pointer dog hunting for the man who stepped out for a few miuutes and who was, not as green as he seemed to be Boyish. Boys will be boys and boys of the pres ent age are no worse than boys were forty years ago, but yet boys are act always right in what they do. Boys, are in the habit of bending down the young trees on Market street, placing their hats on them and giving them a sail through the air for other boys to catch; and the b)y who catches it then gives his hat a sail through the air ia like manner. No doubt the game is an amusing one but what is fun to the boys is death to the trees.

An eminent physician say s: "It is worth whi'e for common people to learn that 50.000 typhus germs will thrive in the circum ference of a pin bead or a visible globule. It is worth while for them to note that these germs msy be dessicated and borne like thistle seeds, everywhere, and like demoniacal possessions, mayjurnp noise lessly djwn the throat. But there are certain things spores cannot stand accord ing to the latest ascertained results of science. A water temperature of 120 de grees boils then to death, and soap chemically poisons them. Here sanitary and microscopic science come together. Spores thrive in low ground and under, low conditions of life. For redemption, fly to hoAiisdTse who lire in danger of malarial noisoniug.

' Oa Toursday morning t ie party w ill go to Flemington and pass the day in tie enjoyment of a h suing excursion on Waccamaw Lske. lnring their stay in Flemiugton the distinguished vis itors will be the guests of Col H. B. Short, than whom no man is a nobler or more genial hearted host. We learn that, after catching all the fish in Waccamaw,they will return and stop a couple of days in Wilmington before re turning to the Capital, and will, prob ably, make an excursion down the river to the government works at New Inlet, besides visiting other places of historic or general interest. We Jearn that the Governor and his friends will be met at the Front street depot to-night feydhe Cape Fear Light Artillery who. will act as an escort to his hotel, and a serenade by the Cornet Cow cert Club is among the things in content- plation in honor of the arrival of our distinguished visitors. The Picnic at Crooin s Bridge. Through the politeness of Capt. Bisby, of the stiamer Clinloti, we learn that the picnic, at Croom's Bridge, in Pender county, on Saturday, the 19th inst., was quite an enjoyable and successful affair. It is estimated that there were between 400 and -500 people, of both sexes, and of all ages and conditions of life, present during the day. The very best of feel ing was manifested and the best order I . ,:..,: 1 .:.i i. r il i uiaimaiueu w uuouu any oi inu unpieas ant episodes, such as fi-ehting and drunk" r ,' . ennesH, to mar the harmony or the testi vities of the occasion. The tables were spread with a bountiful supply of every thing that could please the appetite or satisfy the hunger of those in attendance. Speeches were made by W. T. Banner- man, Esq, Clerk ofthe Superior Court of Pender, and others, all of which were appropriate to the occasion, and which were highly appreciated bythe listeners Capt. Bisby made two excursion trips with the Clin'on from Ormsby's Bluff to the pio-nic grounds, during the day, which were free to all who desired to at tend. In this connection we desire to tender our thanks to Captain Bisby for the courtesy of the offer of a free ride on the Clinton whenever business or incli nation should tempt us to brave the perils of the deep on the waters of the raging Northeast river, a courtesy which we appreciate and of which we shall avail ourselves whenever opportunity will per mit. . Tne Kale ifih Obsei ver- I It is with groat regret that we ieirn of the distress which has overtaken the Raleigh Observ.r, its editor and proprie tor, Mr. Hale, having been compelled to make an assignment for the benefit of the creditors of his p riper. The trans fer was made yesterday. Mr. T. J Rob inson is named as the assignee and he will continue the publication of the p.. per for thirty d ays. in h pes of effdeting a private sate aunng mat uraa. railing in which he will offer it at public auction. The assignment, i overs everything except Mr. Hales half intere t iu tue pub lie printing. Mootford McGehee, Ejsq., is a preferreJ creditor to the amdont bf j-4,000, and the ballance to be realized, if any thing, is to be divided among the other creditors, pro rata. We do not know the extent of tne Observer's liabilities but they are prob ably very large. We heard some months ago that they were not less than $20 000 bat this may have been mere surmise We do knew, however, that one of the t newspapers ever pub.ishen in the Soathem States, and a strong and earnest and unwavering champion of the interests of the people of North Carolina has been compelled to yield to the strin gency of the times. In the death of Major Engelhard and in the suspension of the Rdeijfa Observer the people of North Carolina bhve suffered a terrible loss. aajsssl n fVva5i g j . .
