What Our Reporters See and Hear Worth Giving to Our Readers News in Brief The Register of Deeds issued one marriage license to day. The people of Charlotte anticipa ted a large crowd in attendance to day. About 13 o'clock this morning, quite a lively crowd ol young persons went out to K ind's mill on a pic nic. Commencement exercises are now all the talk, and will be for several months to come. It is estimated that about Ave hun dred persons will go on the excursion of the Baptist Tabernacle to New Berne on the 26th inst. The Railroad Commissioners are busily engaged in hearing the repre - sentatives of the various railroads on the subject of passenger and freight rates. Several days will no doubt be consumed in the matter. The new machinery for the wagon factory has arrived, and, when put to operation there will be a turn out of fifteen wagons a day. Mr. Powell, from the Studebaker works at South Bend, Indiana, is the foreman. The Oil Mills have shut down for the season, which has proven the most complete success. There have been 7181) tons of seeds pressed , yielding 42 gallons of oil to the ton. About 40 hands were employed. It is expected that the encampment of the State Guard will commence at Wrightsville on the 18th of July and end on the 2fth.

Today is the one hundred and six teenth anniversary of the Meckleu hurg Declaration of Independence, about which there has been so much discussion and division of opinion. The game of base ball at Athletic Park, yesterday afternoon betwieu the Raleigh and Durham c ubs, re sulted in victory for the former, by score of 23 to 5. We hope that all our people who are able to do so, will give of tbier means to aid the Soldiers Home.

D., of Fayetteville 6u June 1st, at 3 p. m the regular exer ercises will take place and on June 2, the annual concert will take place. The delay in the hanging of the negro Bradham who murdered the Italian lately in Cha.lotte, is caused from the fact that the papers from the Supreme Court have not yet been certified to the Governor. The exe cntion will hardly take place before July. The Clerk of the Superior Court was engaged this morning in sending out notices to guardians, &c, to come forward and renew their bonds and make annual statements. There has been much neglect in this matter, and, as the penalties of the law may be inflicted it would be well for all concerned to heed the warning. "Life has been a burden to me for past 50 years on account of grea,t suf feriug from very Bevere and frequent headaches.

This morning early a colored boy was attracted to a vacant lot near South street, at a point near the North Carolina Railroad, by the cries of an infant. Going to the place, he discovered a white female child snugly stored away in a basket. The boy at once came to the station house and reported the case, when police men were sent to look after the mat ter. They found the child as reported. It is a well developed handsome little girl apparently about two months old, clothed in good style with several other articles of clothing, &c , lying around loosely. The infant was wrapped up in a red shawl. It was taken in charge and given to a nurse who will retain it until some other arrangement can be made. In the meantime every effort will be made to ferret out the mother, and ascer tain the parentage of the child. It is an act of the most inhuman kind, and we sincerely hope the vile perpetra tors may be fouud out, and made to pay the penalty. FURTHER PARTICULARS. Last night a stranger made his ap pearauce at the Yarboro House, stat ing that his sister would be up on the next train from Selma. He hung around the hotel for sometime and went off. When the train arrived the woman was aboard and was noticed to have a baby, a basket and a red shawl. The party left this morning on the 11:20 train over the R. & G. Railroad, purchasing a ticket to Portsmouth. Chief of Police Heartt had a warrant issued for assault, and telegraphed to have the woman ar rested which was done. A later dis patch was rectived stating that there was trouble about the matter pre sumably about some technicality or defect in the warrant. A still latej dispatch was received stating that the woman was about to get away, and asking that an officer be immediately sent to Henderson. The city attorney being absent, the Mayor and Chief of Police -engaged Messrs. E. Chambers Smith and W. N. Jones, who were in consultation on the case when our re port closed. The name of the woman is, for prudential reasons, withheld for the present. The man regis tered as Edwards and sister. To Bent.

This is the 20th of May, a day on which it is claimed, one huudred auJ sixteen years ago, May 20th, 1775, the first regular declaration of principles, wherby the separation of the colonies from the mother country was announ ced, took place in Charlotte, Mecklen burg county. There are a few if any public events connected with our rev olutionary history that have been more widely discussed, or been the subject of more diversity of opinion. We do know that on the dav men tioned, there was a public meeting held at Charlotte, and we do know that resolutions was passed. We know further that these resolutions con tained words and SPECIAL NOTICES. Hardware, &c. Use Royal Germatner. It will build j up, strengthen and cure you. A. E. Jordan, Agt., 12 South Side Market.

Now the Charlotte meeting in 1775 could not possibly have been copied from the PhiladeU phia meeting of 1776, and hence, if there was any copying the latter must have been copied from the former. At any rate as true North Carolinians, we will accept this view of the matter, and take it for granted that North Carolina was the first State to pro mulgate the patriotic ideas that an imated the people of those tijies. Let us all accept the situati on, and conclude that old man Jefferson got his cue from tar heel inspiration.
