| ALL QUIET AT LAKE BoRGSE.-From different
| persons who came UP on last evenings train from
Lake Borgne, we learned that all was quiet at
Proctoryiilc, and that there was nc probability of
any big disturbance between the Spanish and
Chinese or Lascar fishermen, as had for some days
been anticipated.
The Spaniasds have Procterville, the Cinnamon
live and fish at different places within five miles of
ProctorviIle the Cinnamon have to come to
ProctorvilIe to send their fish up to the city; the
Spaniards at Proctorville also fish and send their
| fish up to the city; and, though it was coffee
house row that led to the bloody tragedy and
opened the present bloody feud, the feeling which
engendered the fight was an old one, arising out of
! competition between two widely separate and
| antagonistic classes Of fishermen.

French Creole who stated it as his positive knowl.

Of the more cool and sensible Of the spaniards at
Proctorse are at present on the alert, to see that
the Cinnamon are not molested when they bring

Some awful murders have taken place, and there

eease Our only comfort is this assurance, that
some Of ihe spaniards at Proctorville have con.

police, to see that their more turbulent brethren
do not nolest the unoffendng Cinnamon, when
they bring their fish to Proctorville to send up to
the city. 5
| quiet feud has existed for years among the
| Spanish and Chinese fishermen at Lake Borgne,
based upon nothing more nor less than rivalry in
the fish business, and the refusal of the Chinese to
be governed by the Spanish tariff of prices. 1t was
this old feud which supplied the hot temper on
| both sides, and enabled little misunderstanding
with barkeeper to swell into fight and bloody
tragedy, as well as the high excitement and feeling
of retaliation and vengeance which still exists be-
| tween the two classes Of fishermen.
THE yILLERE STREET BRIDGE.-This improve
ment so important to the inhabitants of both sides
