AFFRAY.-A team of oxen started yester-
day afternoon upon the run down Lime street.
A little fellow who was lame undertook to
stop them by using his cane over the heads of
the cattle, when the owner came up, and,
supposng the lad was urging the cattle for
ward, struck him over the hand with his goad
stick, making bad welt A bystander OBJ
serving this, pitched into the teamster, knocked
him down, and gave him quite drubbing.
There was considerable excitement for few
moments, but 1t finally subsidized. The team
ster should not have been quite so hasty in
striking the lad, before he knew what the lads
intentions were.

Us, were permitted to go free. The
cars run easily over the track, and with very
little vibration. The Directors were in hopes
of having the cars which they had ordered to
be built for the road-and which were con-
tracted to be delivered by the 1st Of October
ready for the public. But the builders disap-
pointed them, and they were obliged to pur-
chase two small ones in Boston. The new
ones will be here some time this month They
are of the latest improvement and large and
commodious.
1t will require about It's tons of rail to COM
plete the track from Clark street to West
brook. aud 1t is expected this will arrive, so
that the track will be complete early next
month.
There was some difficulty yesterday, be-
tween the Directors of the Company and the
City Government, respecting the track In
Spring street, which resulted in prohibition,
by the Mayor, of running the cars above
High street, until certain orders, passed by
the Board of Mayor and Aldermen, were COM
piled with. A special meeting of the Board
of Mayor and Aldermen, was held last even
ing, and all these difficulties were amicably
adjusted, and the cars viii commence to-day,
making regular trips over the whole line of
the road in the city.
