THEIR PLACES OF BUSINESS PURCHASED BY
MOODY AND TYLER.-We were greatly pleased to
learn yesterday that those two enterprising and
popular citizens, Messrs. S. N. Moody and E. A.
Tyler, have jointly purchased the buildings which
they occupy as places of business, at the corner
of Canal and Royal streets. The price paid,
sl0s,5O0, is fancy one but the location is about
the best in town. Col. Moody has made the
immediate corner famous for quite number of
years by the energy and success with which he
has carried on his business there, we presume it
would be no trif1ing sum. that would prevent him
making it entirely his own when the opportunity
offered. The Colonel is an instance of the influ-
ence of the press, of the services of which he has
persistently availed himself, and none so prompt
as he is himself to acknowledge its agency in
speeding him on to fortune. Our business friends
may take note of this, and act upon it.
WOULDN'T Wharf.-The driver of cab No. 81
took citizen H. A. Sherman as a" fare," butwhen
the drive was accomplished, did not consider that
he Jared SO well as he might have done on the
| tariff question. Mr.. 8. wasn't verdant enough to
be imposed upon, and talked in such manner
about redress that the jehu left in hurry, and be-
fore he was required to face the music. The horse
| and cab were brought to the First District police
station and then sent to the pound.
| A RoUGH RIDER.-A man named William Rider
was arrested yesterday on Customhouse street, on
charges preferred against him by Lizzie Brownson
who alleges that he committed an assault and
battery on her, and drew bowieknife on hel
with intent to kill. He will also have to answer
charge of carrying concealed weapon, made
| against him by Corporal Mullen, who took him int
custody I....
RIDDEN OvER.-A lad named Henry Myro wal
ridden over last night, in front of the residence
corner of Tchoupitoulas and Josephine streets, by
boy on horseback, who did not wait to see wha
injury was caused by his recklessness. Myro wa
not dangerously hurt.
The FEN1AN BALL AT ODD FELLOWS HALL To
Tho
will give grandsdress, fancy dress and mask bal
at Odd Fellows Hall tonight, and we are quite as
sured it will be of the very pleasantest festiv
gatherings of the season. The genial generou
and warm nature of the Irish heart is seldom il
active, but on such an occasion as this it wells u
joyous as the song of the soaring lark bounteor
as the verdure of the beautiful green isle, brigl
and glowing as the summer sunshine. With
its influence no one can look at things except
, their most agreeable aspect, and dull care, if
, approaches, is promptly sent to The right about
, seek worse company.
AS a matter of course there will be gay tim
and we warn those who miss it that pleasant afai
such as this ball will be, are not unlike angd
visits, few and far between. If possible, we sill
avail ourself of the very courteous invitation
be present which we have received from the
promise ourself the pleasure of spending an II
or two with the gallant Brotherhood and theirir
admirers, who we know will be there in numfls
, and brilliant array.

Co, agents of the New Qleans and Liverpool
line, for the purpose of icing shipped on board
one of their steamers. Jhe purser of the steam
ship Missouri received me cotton and gave re-
teipt for it, substituting the Missouri for the
name of the ship for which it was irtended. The
