CITY INTELLIGENCE.

.Niliimy Pna3e. The SD Regiment of Ma
ryldnd volunteers, were ordered to parade yes
terday afternoon, but we regretted to see but
one company--the "Maryland Cadets" out
on the occasion. They were accompanied by
the admirable band OF the Independent Greys,
under Capt. Minnck, who discoursed most ex-
cellent music, as they marched through our
principal streets Both the company and the
band looked exceedingly we'll.
The 9Th Regiment also paraded under Col.
N. Hickman, aud comprised the "Mechanical
Volunteers" Captain Watkins, German
Guards" Captain Kerner, and "lndependent
Blues" Capt. Watson. The Mechancals and
Guards were out in strong numbers, and made
a fine soldiery appearance, an evidence Of
their increasing prosperity and improvement.
Respect for the Dead On Sunday afternoon
the mortal remains of Mr.. James McCleary
were conveyed from his late residence to the
Methodist Episcopal Church, William street,
of which Church he was a highly esteemed
and valuable member and steward. The
church was crowded to OVERLOOKING, and many
unable to find accommodations, thronged the
streets in the neighborhood. Appropriate re-
| ligious exercises were held in the Church, and
a funeral sermon delivered by the Rev. Isaac
! 7. Cook. The singing was conducted by mem
ches, and was ola high order The procession
was formed and moved TO the Methodist burial
ground in the vicinity, and the mass of people
was SO great that it seemed as if the whole
neighborhood was out. As the procession en-
tered the burial ground the choir sang an APP
propriate flynn, after which the burial SER
vice was read by the Rev. William o. Lums-
der, pastor of the William street station, and
the assemb!age dismissed A large number OF
other ministers were likewise in attendance
: The influence of these funeral exercises can be
but beneficial, as they abundantly show that
respect is not reserved for the rich and the great
exclusively, but that the humble and worthy
christian is held in high estimation in life and
in death; and such was the individual in every
respect who was conveyed to the house ap-
pointed for all the living.
Coroner'S Inquest An inquest was held yes
terday by Coroner Bowman, at the house Of
Nehemiah Brown, Camden street, few doors
from Light street, over the body of Il man ma
med Thomas Carroll, who had died under sus-
picious circumstances about o'clock on Sun.
, day afternoon. 1t appears that the deceased
who was aged between twenty-five and thirty
wears, had taken board at the above house Oh
=, Friday last; and that sometime during the night
was taken i'll, and continued TO get worse until
Sunday when he died. From the circumstance
, of the body having mark apon the forehead
and the notorious character ofthe house, it was
at first supposed by some of the citizens living
in the neghborhood that the unfortunate de-
, ceased had L,et with foul play The jury after
/ patient investigation, however, found ver-
dict of death from IntempeIance." DR..
: William Davidson was present at the inquest,
and examined the body The deceased was a
native of Ireland, anu had lately worked at the
mine banks about four miles from the city, in
Anne Arundle county.
Interesting amusement. Two young men
not having the safety of the limbs of our cti-
zens at heart, nor the fear of the police before
their eyes, commenced brickbating each other
y yesterday afternoon, at the corner of Baltimore
I and Calvert streets. Officer Dexter, after a
{ short chase, arrested one of the parties, named
Kinney Morgan. The other "took out" so
: fast, that the worthy officer has some doubt
S whether he has stopped running yet. Morgan
= was taken beforeJustice Egerton, by whom he
was fined IL andcosts, and placed under secu-
rity to keep the peace.
