TIE F1RE-PBooF BUnDIsa. This rusty,
time-worn and discolored building is now be-
ing thoroughly regenerated The dull, brown
color is being replaced by the popular cream
tint, and the old Fire-Proof will soon be one of
the most attractive structures in the city.
There are few buildings that combine more
architectural beauties than could be found,
near the corner Of Broad and Meeting streets,
in the Fire-Proof, the City Hall, the Court
house and st. Michael's Church. The latter
was built on o plan furnished by one of Eng
lands brightest architects, Sir Christopher
Wren, and is fine proof Of his ability. The
Proof Building has been so long known
as one OF the dingy landmarks of the city, that
its regeneration will take many by surprise;
and the Board of Commissioners OF Public
Buildings, under whose direction the work is
done. will merit the commendation Of their
fellow-citizens.

The CoIoRED DEMooRAoY.-Notwithst stand
ing the strong pressure brought to bear upon
che colored class by their Radical leaders, many
have refused to become adherents Of that poll
.ey, but have chosen that better part which
unites them with the respectable portion of the
community. Ward Six, the banner ward OF the
city, has proved, its right to This title by the
energy that has been displayed in the Demo-
cratic cause. The first club was organized in
this ward, and the members instantly put their
shoulders to the wheel, and can now show not
only o thorough organization Of the white resi-
dents, but colored Democratic Club has been
formed that nownumbers nearly eight hundred.
AT the recent meeting in honor Of General
Hampton the colored Democrats turned out In
force, nearly four hundred marching to the
ground with the white club of that ward.
Ward Six has larger voting population than
any other, and If 80 much good has been al
ready done, there is no reason why the good
example set should not be followed in the other
,wayd organizations, and the municipal election
secured beyond peradventure.

A NEGRO PoIidE.-The New Orleans Plea
!. yuns gives us!a lesson on the subject Of negro
policemen: .sThose whose business does not
call them into all parts of the city hayeno idea
.of Che. amount os distress which prevails in
smanyparts gift. The unusually large number
of,idle and unemployed persons are daily in
creaaingi It toa fsartul:exte The great cause
Of this iatterly, is the Il otsh ambition excited
among the yagrant negroes9by promises Of
promotion to ehe police force. Every Idle ne
gro in thascity expects to be 3 policeman:
Those who were atwork have quit IL, and turn
ed lobbyist at thscentral police station. They
flock around the pitiful spoil held out to them
as yultures do,to petrid corpses. There is only
one qualification now requisite in policeman,
snd that IS TO vote the Radical ticket and curse
the swhiteapeopls. This they can do. Intel
Rgsroe. and ,qnaiii icstions for 1.-The position are
matters of. mindr9 consideration" InlMoble,
the negro police behave we'll, but they arrest
no thieves for the reason that they do most Of
the stealing and house breaking. themselves.
