C.) .Sentinel says: "It is understood that Colonel Bomford and his command have been ordered from this post to Charleston. We have not heard definitely who is to succeed him, but there is some talk that General Canby will es? tablish bis headquarters for the summer in ibis city. Good men in this community and elsewhere throughout his command will part with Colonel Bomford with regret. He has ad? ministered his delicate and responsible du? ties fairly, impartially and as a conscientious . officer. As there is to be a change, we hope that the rumor is true that General Canby is to come to Haleigh in person. If an expres? sion of the wishes and feelings of this commu? nity could be the means of retaining the ser? vices of Colonel Bomford in this command, we have no doubt that the signatures of every gentleman and lady in this city could be ob? tained to a petition to General Canby to con . riane bim among us." TH K SCHI TZENFEST. A JOLLY GERM?N HO LID S POE TS AND I NCIDENT I THE GAILES AND AM?SEMENTS-THE SB ING AND DANCING. AC *C. *c For the first time in eight years, the mans of our city yesterday had the plet of meeting again as an organized body, resumed their time-honored and an sports. By permission of General Canby "Rifle Club," to the number of one hundred forty, paraded with guns, it having been i to appear to the satisfaction of the mil chief of the department that the purpos the association has ever been to mutual!; joy and perpetuate the customs and pleas of the fatherland, and that they would shoot anybody. Pursuant to notice, a procession was foi on the Citadel Green at seven o'clock in morning, and preceded by Muller's Band dab and its guests marched through a r ber of the. streets, saluting the newsp offices and residences of their friends. At : o'clock the cars were taken for the Schut platz, where, soon after arriving, a fine ci tion was spread by Mr. Theas, the occupai the premises. It may be remarked here that this fine pert y and beautiful location is owned by Rifle Club, and that the club itself is the ol organization of its. kind io America. To-describe in detail'the novel scenes ; sented to the eye of & stranger would b* most impossible. At a distance, the p presents the appearance of a lovely cottage shrined in a grote.

Strains of music ar6 wal to the ear, and following, the melody yon quickly in a .great,hall' whose walls hung around with wreaths and branc that typify the great picnic in WE you are engaged. A bower of green in centre holds the bud, and ' scores of men, \ men and children, old and young, are glidi through the n-zea of the German valse, vibrating peripatetio'aUy through the la rinths of Les Lancer?. There are broad pi zas on both sides, of the hall, and the e breezes from the distant stream lend th delici?os refreshment to the place.

On the present oe sion it has been yielded to the purpoces of < tertainment Still bayoud, in the adjoioi gro fe, tables have been spread, where a BI stantial collation may at all times be enjoy< A hundred yards distant is the booth wh< the rapidly succeeding cracks of the rifle t of the the rivalry there in progress. The 00 testants are numbered, from one to one ht dred and .fifty, and as fast as their turn 1 rives, a derk < calls and they fire. Bac are fixed for their gons, and every convenien is provided for the accommodation of tl marksman. The rifles are of various kind according to the choice or accidental posse sion of the individual. The majority of the are very fine, but the size of the bore vari from that of a deer gun to a Belgian. Fi practice, three iron targets ht.ve been erectei at wbich some very flue shots were made ye terday, a long bell rope connected with bomb-proof calling the "marker" tharefror who announced by the exhibition of gre: white figures the number of the ring struck. The "prize" mark, however, is the invitatio of a hage bird with spread wings, holding j each claw an emblem. This bird ie divid? into eleven parts, each of .which is to be ah< away, the highest prize being awarded to hi who shoots off the eleventh and last fraginen The following is a list of .the prizes attache to the several portions of the strange sua tom; L The crown-a portfolio. 2. The head-a dozen janey Bohemian glac tumblers and decanters, 3. The neck-a set of gold studs. 4. The contents of the left claw-six s il vc spoons. 5. The sceptre in the right daw-a pair c deeve buttons. 6. The left daw-a cigar case. 7. The right claw-an album. 8. The tail-a handsome silver butter duh. 9. The left wing-? silver water pitcher. 10. The right wing-one dozen silver spoons LL The rump-and highest prize-a eilve tea eervioe. Tn addition to the above is a harlequin's tar get, on striking the ball's eye of which a fi gun shoots op. Also a target of honor, which th? honorary and ex officio members are to fire at The prize for this consists of a very beau tiru rosewood case containing three meera charm pipes, a pair cf cigar stems, and tobacco case. The amusements yesterday consisted 0: shooting by the men, dan fing by the ladies anc their gallants, and the bibula?on of a much? ness of lager beer. "The Turners, S?ngerbund and other German associations were ont ix strong force, besides a very large number 0; visitors, who arrived on the cars, in omnibus? es and carriages. The greasy pole was climbed about ten feet by aspiring boys, who only held their poaitior. by means of umbrellas resting on the broad part of their personal corporosities. The prizes at the top of this shaft are worth the trouble of reaching them, but "nary a one' had sticking plaster enough in hhj composi? tion to succeed. Another source of fan was a race between ten or twelve boys, who were furnished with saucera filled with brown sugar and a spoon. Half a dollar waa offered to the gour? mand who would gobble up his sugar first, and, as the reader may well imagine, before the performance was finished, the crowd was in a hystericd condition that found vent in cacbination which ran the whole gamut of explosives, from an incipient te-he-he to the most tremendous ba-ha-ha. Another source of fun was the attempt made by sundry little freedmen to seize five-cent pieces in the bottom of a big bowl full of molasses. Some of them succeeded, bat when they came out, it was with physiognomies which bore a very correct resemblance to highly polished mahogany. How the people did laugh ! Still another entertainment was a sack race; and if ever a human being won deserved ap? probation, it was for the energy and elasticity with wbich the fellows turned their bodies into India rubber balls and bounded towards the goal. The fun to-day will be diversified and not less attractive. A blind bear race will proba? bly be among the amusements. The modus operandi of this performance is to blindfold a score or more of individu?is, give them a wheel barrow apiece, tom them around io triously, and then start them after a t bear. The man who hits him, will own hil All the arrangements made for the er mont of the visitors are of the amplest c acter. A police force is on the ground', such is the courtesy and quiet of the throi especially among the Germans-that the of order exists. Indeed, all preceding o sions of this character have been charae ized by the utmost good feeling, and it place where any lady or gentleman may ei a happy holiday. The president of the Club is Captain A. 1 chers, and the vice-president is Mr. J. D. L mann. To these gentlemen, to Mr. Issei and other prominent members of the assc rion, much of the credit for the very handsi and successful manner in which the "F has thus far progressed is due. The pleasi will be resumed to-day, and to one and all \ desire to have a jolly good time, even as "lc ers on in Vienna," we say, go to the Sehnt; platz I_ As ASTHALTUM MACHINE.-Wu have be: alluded to a machine which had been inver for the purpose of pulverizing the mate used in the manufacture of asphalt. Mr. J F. Taylor, of the Phoenix Iron works, has contract for constructing this machine, an will be completed and at work in a short ti: It will be portable, and will consist of a cit lax receptacle in which the material is pla and pulverized by two powerful screws t can be worked either by hand or horse-pot This machine win be very useful in prepar the asphalt, and the pavements laid with pulverized material will be b:th firmer i better than those now in use.

The case of the State vs. Wade Thimble and James McQueen, both cases for attemp to defraud by cheating- with the strap game From the evidence elicited it appeared that i young mau named Felder, a resident of Som merrilie, had visited the city for the purpost of purchasing supplies, and while here was ac coated by the prisoners, who offered to sel him a shot gun cheap. The bait took, ant Felder accompanied them to a house in Sod ety-street, but found that the gun waa locket up and was told to wait until the mother of th i prisoners came, when it could be seen. In thu meantime, Thimbles produced a strap, and with the assistance of McQueen, explained th< mysteries of the game to the astonished Fel der. He thought he saw it and bet $5, whicl was lost; but the betting and.losing continu?e until $30, his entire pile, had melted away Felder left a sadder, but a wiser man, and in forming the detectives of the^occurrence, th< pair of cheats were soon caught and held ove: for trial.

To the Editors of the Neios: Your correspondent was surprised to see, by your issue this morning, that a meeting or meetings had been held in the upper wards the night previous for the parp?se of naming, and actually did name, committees to nominate candidates for Mayor and Aldermen of this city. Many of our citizens have been deceived in this matter. We supposed it was generally un? derstood that public notice of these meetings would be given through the papera, so as to enable all who take an interest in the welfare of our city'to be present and select committees favorable to the nomination of a proper candi? date. . Now, Messrs. Editors, I am a plain man, and intend to speak plainly. We have been governed by cliques long enough, and I, for one, will no longer submit. I do not see any? thing like fair piay in inviting a majority ot the friends of any particular aspirant to assemble together, call it a meeting, and then and there name the committees to confer with other committees to make the nomination. I pre? fer coming out open and above board, let the public know when these meetings are to be held; then-all interested will have a fair chance. After the nomination is agreed upon, call a public meeting to ratify, and let the candidate come squarely before the people, and if he is one who does not favor any particular clique or class, but will do justice to all, and with an eye single to the welfare of the city, he can de? pend upon the support of "A TBUE CONSERVATIVE." Who la Hon. Zephaniah Platt? To the Editors of the lYews : Who is Hon. Zephaniah Flatt? Such has been the question of the press and people since, by military order, Judge Platt entered the vacant seat of Judge Aldrich. Having made due inquiry into his antecedents, we patiently awaited his appearance in the silken robes of | office before making any reply to the anxious public. That time has arrived. Judge Platt presides over the Court of Gene? ral Sessions and Common Pleas now held on I Broad-street, and we have had the desired op- ? portunity to see the man and judge for our? selves. Our verdict is favorable. Hon. Zephani? ah Platt, the grandfather of Judge Platt, was a distinguished citizen of Duchess County, New Tork. In 17b7 he was elected to the Continental Congress of the new nation. On his retirement from that o?5ce he was made Judge of the court of the district in which he lived, and held that position until advancing years warned him to give up active labor. He then retired to his handsome estate upon Lake Champlain, where he founded the town of Plattsburg, now one of the most de- j lightful places in northern New York. His son and heir, Hon. Jonas Platt,inherited his father's ability. He represented his district in Congress; was for many years a Judge of the Supreme Court of New York, and the fr iend and. associate of Governor DeWitt Clinton, Chancellor Kent and other distinguished citi? zens of that State. The present judge, Zephaniah Platt, is about seventy years of age, but possessing the vigor, both mental and physical, of a man of fifty five. Born in th e State of New York, trained to the law, he afterwards moved to Michigan, and was for many years an ornament to the bar of tbat State, filling with much distinction for a term of years the office of attorney-general. Latterly be has been a member of the New l'ork bar, and has been noted for his integrity, legal acumen and extensive knowledge. He has a great knowledge of mes, and never showed it more conspicuously than when he chose from among the scholars of a large academy Anson Burlingame, a poor but bright youth, took him into his family, clothed, fed and educated him, and laid the foundation of that character which has enabled his protege to attain the high position of ambassador from China to all the courts of the world. Such is Judge Platt. We congratulate our citizens that the selection of the military is suchthat we can speak with approval of the appointee. BUSINESS NOTICES. HTH.
