regularity in carriers. j.. DAVIES.
THE DELEeATEs.-A large number OF
the delegates selected to attend the con-
servative convention at Nashville, left
on Sunday afternoon, and an additional
number left yesterday. We shall no
doubt hear Of their doings by telegraph.
A FAILURE.-Some would-be ineendi-
aries made a second attempt to set fire to
q barber shop near the corner of Gayoso
and DeSoto streets, on Sunday evening,
hut failed. No doubt malice against the
owners must have been the cause of ]ais
villainous act.
THE RAoEs.-By a telegram received
by Capt. John S. Lail, yesterday, we
learn that the stables Of Meldon, DAILY,
Smith and Patterson, will be represented
at the races TO come of on the fret day
of MAY next. A spirited time may be
looked for.
LEFT.-One Charles Duffy, who was
sentenced to serve the chsingang for
some hundred days or more, did not
relish the employment and left the
service. This action on his part did not
suit the boss, who r%ecaptured him. The
chances are that his term Of servitude
will be doubled.
A GOLD THEA warrant was issued
bv Esquire Creighton yesterday, on the
complaint of Nh L. Kaufman, who
lives at No. 20 Bradford street, charging
a colored servant named Mary Davis
with stealing about two hundred dollars
10 gold, the property Of ccmplainants
sister. The case will probably come up
for examination to-day.
A LEvEE MUss.-A slight difficulty
occurred on the levee yesterday about
noon, during which one Pat Msloney
beat Thomas Walker severely about the
head. The fight was likely to become
general, when officer James Cuisiek in
terposed, arrested the parties and gave
them an escort to the Adams street sta
ton. They will answer for their ofiense
before the commissioner this morning.
HOTEL CHANGEs.-Among the hotel
! changes which have taken place in the
city during the past few months we
NAV class that of the Commercial.
] Capt. Mancourt has disposed Of his in
terest to Mr.. Dave BrysOn, s veteran in
the hotel business, and a gentleman In
every sense of the word. He will no
doubt do all he promises-that il, keep q
frst-elass hotel. His card may be found
in u advertising columns this morning
SHOOTING AGAIN.-On Sunday morn
ing a shooting ARRAY took place on Cen
| ter allev, near Washington street, be-
tween two men named Charles Fairfield
and Harry Sweet, during which the lat
ter was shot through the hand and hip
by the former. Fairfield is in custody
and the wounded man is doing well. The
origin Of the quarrel was not creditable
to either party, and of course not fit for
publication in our columns.
! COTToN HOUsE.-It is with pleasure
we call the attention of our readers to
| the card Of \. Corona in this mornings
issue. Their offices in this city are stu
ated at 155 and I56! Front street, while
