BATTLE BUNNY.
(MALvERN HILL, 1862

["After the men were ordered to Ii
down, a white rabbit, which had been hol
ping hither and thither over the field swel
by grape and musketry, took refuge anon
the skirmishers. in the breast of corporal.
Report of Tie Battle Of Malcern Hill ]
Bunny, lying in the grass,
Saw the shining columns pass,
Saw the starry banner fly,
Saw the chargers fret and fume,
Saw the tapping hat and plume;
Saw them with moist and shy,
Most unspeculative eye,
Thinking only, in the dew,
That it was fine review
Till a flash, not all of steel,
Where the rolling caisson's wheel
Brought rumble and roar
Rolling down the velvet floor,
And like blows of Autumn fail
Sharply threshed the iron hail.
Bunny, thrilled by unknown fears,
Raising his soft and pointed ears,
Mumbled his prehensile lip,
Quivered his pulsating hip,
AS the sharp vindictive yell
Rose above the screening shell:
Through the world and all its men,
All the charging squadrons meant,
All were rabbit hunters then,
All to capture him intent.
Bunny was not much to blame:
Wiser folks have thought the same
Wiser folk, who think they spy
Every III begins with "I."
Wildly painting, here aud there
Bunny sought the free air,
Till he hoped below the hill.
And saw, lying close and still,
Men with muskets in their hands.
Never Bunny understands
That hypocrisy of sleep,
In the vigils grim they keep,
AS recumbent on that spot
The elude the level shot,
One-a grave and quiet man,
Thinking of his wife and child
Far beyond the Rapidan,
Where the Addroscoggin smiled
Felt the little rabbit creep,
Nesting by his arm and side.
Weakened from strategic sleep,
To that soft appeal replied,
Drew him to his blackened breast,
And
But you have guessed the rest.
Softly DER that chosen pair.
Ominipresent Love and Care
Drew mightier Hand and Arm,
Shielding them from every harm;
Right and left the bullets waved,
Saves the savior for the saved.
Who believes that eqal grace
God extends in every place,
Little difference he scans
'Twixt rabbits God and mans.

ANNOUNCEMENT.

On the 10th day Of November. 1876, and
in the city Of Raleigh, the undersigned will
commence the publication Of THE 0BsER.
YER, daily and weekly Democratic news
paper.
Of long experience in their profession as
editors. respectively Of the Fayetteville
Observer and the Wilmington Journal,
they do not affect to doubt the soundness Of
the general Judgment which assigns them
ability. to furnish q newspaper suited tothe
needs and adapted to the tastes Of the pc :
pie Of North Carolina. Differing in poll
ties in the ulden time, there was never a
difference between the Observer and the
Journal IN zeal for the interests and honor
Of North Caro,ina. To promote the one,
and to uphold and add to the other will be
the object OF the Observer now.
OF very decided opinions on questions Of
public interest, and apt to give those opin-
ions plain expression. tLey deem it the frs:
duty OF a newspaper to furnish its readers
With the information Of their opinions--tc
publish all the news . and their purpose il
to make The Observer now, as Of old, Q
truthiel. accurate. condensed history Of the
lines in which we live. II was thus that
the old Observer won its hold upon the
people u North Carolina, enjoying the al.
fectioh Of its party friends, receiving the
respect and confidence Of its bitterest poll.
tical foes. and commanding in its compare.
lively isolated location circulation largel
than has ever been attained by any othel
North Carolina newspaper, and it is thus
BY like dignity, and fairness that the edi
tors Of The Observer. transferred to III,
State Capital, hope it will deserve, an,
soon equal and then surpass. its furme
circulation aud prosperity.
1t will be their high aim to deserve th'
public confidence By earnest efforts to pro
mote the public welfare. FIRST and foremOs
Of North Carolina. next of allthe Southern
States. and finally, aud through these, Q
the uhole Union. They think that this cal
only be effected by the prevalence Of DE
mOcratic principles and the dismissal Of th
Radical party from the places and pOwe
which they have 50 greatly abused, and uu
: der whose baleful rule tile South has bee
j outraged aud the whole country has bee
impoverished and disgraced.

RELIEF OF TIE POOR.

"a friend ofthe poor" desires 10 be informed

Ifthe four or hve thousand who are likely TO

dollars worth OF fuel and groceries, this friend OF

The Relief Commissioners have no authority to
draw money under the bill; this discretion Is
wisely withheld.
A Sunday paper makes complaint that visitors
are paid by the Commission two dollars and a-half
q day. In fact we pay one dollar per day, and
usually obtain about ten or twelve hours service,
service that taxes the nervous and physical ener.

beg our friends who are SO much interested In
relieving the poor, to take the trouble TO inform
themselves before bringing their complaints be-
fore the public.
We Commissioners do not profess to be divinely
inspired, nor do We expect TO escape criticism and
