PATENT AwARDED.-Mr. R. W. Baylor, a
resident of this city, has been awarded a
patent for an invention for coupling rail-
road cars, which has been pronounced quite
a desirable invention. II has been examin-
ed by a number of the prominent mechanics
connected with several of our railroads and
they pronouce it without mechanical fault
whatever. The object of this invention or
Improvement is to couple cars on the same
or unequal heights on the road. 1t is self
adjusting, and can be disconnected or I'M
loosed at any moment whether the strain
is on the pin or not, from the platform
above. 1t is perfect and unfailing in its
action; it is as cheap as the plan now used
and much more convenient. The patent
has been received by Mr.. Baylor and is
dated September 9TH.
We are glad TO see these frequent evil
dences OF mechanical skill on the ypart of
our Southern people, as it is an evidence
that the talent we have is now being turned
in the right direction and will be instru-
mental in building up State in the South
which will tend to save the wealth home
We have SO lavishly squandered on the
North heretofore. A

a Frightened BY CRABS. - Pater familias
went grabbing the other day, and didn't
get back till late in the night, after ma and
all hands of us had got to bed and Sleep
He carried his basket of crabs in the bed
room. with him, and without waking any
one went to bed. In the night ma awoke,
and after listening to a strange noise in
the room for some time, made up her mind
that it was burglars on tho root endeavor>
ing to break into the house. A huge
alarm followed, and Paterfamilias had to
rouse up, strike light and examine the
whole field of operations, roof and all; and
finally on looking at the basket, he discov.
cred the foul midnight disturbers of his
nervous spouse. The crabs were Singing
as spouse called it, and spouse lectured
the old man soundly about his fishing fol-
lies, especially about bringing crabs in his
bed room, frightening folks at midnight;
and said she was glad he had SO much trou-
BILE, as it would teach him better next
time.

MELANCHOLY AoolDENr.-We deeply re
pret to learn that our former townsman,
Mr.. E.. Frederick Wills, of the firm OF Col
burn, Wills l. Co., accidently shot himself
at the ,Allagany Springs, on yesterday.
The full particulars of this sad affair have
not vet reached us, but from the brief tele.
graphic report, it appears that Mr.. Wills
had been out on hunting excursion, and
upon his return, entered his room through
a window, and in attempting to draw his
gun after him, the hammer struck the win
dow sill, causing the weapon to discharge,
the entire load entering his heart, and pro.
ducing instant death.

NoRFoLK AND PETERSBURG As CoTToN MAR
xETs.-A fine chance for editorial talent to
display itself in behalf of the trade of our
city is offered by the Petersburg Express.
That paper says, in talking about the two
cities of Norfolk and Petersburg as cotton
markets. tHyou wish to raise the question
as to the relative merits Of the two mar
kets for cotton, we are prepared. So crack
your whip" This is throwing out the
challenge in terms impossible to be mistak-
en-, and affords fine opportunity to any
one of our city contemporaries to enter the
contest. As for ourselves, eve have been
along there" We rather took the Express
down on that identical subject before the
war, and the effects of our labors proved
very beneficial to the cotton interests of
our city, as we were given to understand.
We propose to leave the field for some of
our contemporaries who have since come
upon the stage of action. 1t is fine field,
and the Norfolk man is bound to win if the
subject is correctly handled.

Discovery OF A SUNKHN STBANER.-A
few DAYS since a youth named Johnney
Farrell, aged about sixteen years, dived
in the channel of James river, near Drew
rvs Bluff, to the depth of about thirty
feet. and discovered what had, up to that
time, escaped observation-the wreck of
steamer. He brought up with him q
monkey-wrench, and rep orted his discove.
ry to Captain Dix, who, it appears, has
bought from the government all that can
be found at the bottom of the river fer
several miles below this city. Captain
Dix's foreman examined the wreck, and
found it to be that of the Confederate gun
boat "Raleigh," which was sunk on the Sd
of April, 1865. gr4. u
A 32.pounder, shotted and ready for fir
ing amidships, and from twelve to fifteen
tons of shot and she'll, anchors, de-, were
found on board. The guns, iron, &C., are
valuable, and the vessel has proved quite
a prize to Captain Dix. Our informant
states that be gave the little fellow who
discovered and reported the finding of the
vessel to him the sum of one dollar..--

REoPENlNG OF THE PUBLIC SCHooLs.-The
public schools of our city were opened on
the sixth. The teachers and pupils re-
freshed and invigorated by their recent
vacation have entered upon their duties
with new zeal, and we hope the facilities
provided in the supplementary course for
the advancement of the mind will be taken
advantage of. Let every scholar remember
that he is to appear upon the stage of &C.
ton, that the places now filed by our men
ofscience will be made vacant by death, land
to them will the world of progressive
science look for each and every place to be
as ably filed. To the unthinking mind all
this seems to be nonsense, but let the youth
remember that upon his own exertions to
cultivate the mind depends the benefits he
will receive from the world of science and
of art; then let him strive to prepare his
mind to cope with the brightest and be
enabled to surmount any obstacle tba
may at first turn up mountain high, but by
displaying energy and perseverance, sur
mount the obstacle with that pride with
which ship rides the ocean waves.
