Row.Nrhe neighborhood of Canton street
was disturbed about nine o clock last evening
by row which occurred at house on that
street. owned by James Corners and occupied
bp Edward White and William II. Mckenzie.
1t appears that James II. Mckenzie, his wife
Mary and his son William H., gathered in
the yard of the house and were making a
great disturbance, when Mr.. White went out
and ordered them off, stating that bis mother
was very sick. They then attacked White,

ed into thu house; whereupon they commenced
an attack upon the building with stones, stav-
ing in the doors and windows. r.7.
The police soon got information of the affair
ar fastened to the place, where they found a
large crowd had collected. Officers Corliss,
Rich, Crowell and Blake arrested the three
McKenzies and took them to the lookup. Mrs.
McKcnzie's hand was badly cut by breaking
windows with her fist At the police station

RAILROAD ARRANGEMENTS.-Weh have con-
versed with one of the most prominent and re-
liable superintendents Of one the best managed
railroads in our State, and he informed us that
the full arrangements for the summer business
of the P. 8. & P. and the Maine Central roads
have not been fully completed, but that they
will be in very few days. 1t is not thought
that the O'Clock p. N. express train to Boston
Will be taken off. The night sleeping train
which is to be put on between Bangor, Angus
ia and Boston, running in connection with
the two roads above named, will not reach our
city in season to benefit Portland travellers a
great deal, as it is expected to start from Ban
gor about z o'clock, reaching Augusta at 10,
ra Their unreasonable hour at which TO take a
night train for Boston unless one is in great
hurry or had missed the 6 O'Clock express
And for this reason this last mentioned train
will probably be kept on, although this train
may be run thrice weekly to accommodate the
Eastern steamboat lines, and on the alternate
nights passengers may take the sleeping train.
However, the arrangements will be officially
announced In few days. co .-.......

The THAxTER TITLE.-We know that the
Common Council-whose meeting occurs this
evening-will concur with the Aldermen in
appropriating a comparatively small sum OF
money, in order to como into undoubted pos
session of the land contiguous to the old City
Hall. This is no party question; but one fa-
vored by citizens of all parties. The price now
fixed for yielding the title is so low as compar-
ed with former years. that it has ceased to be a
question of economy. And then the city
should own no land in partnership.

INTEREST ON THE STATE DEBT-ACTIoN OF
THE HOUSE OF DELEGATEs.-1t will be seen
by our adyices from Richmond that the House
of Delegates, by a vote Of IS to 80. have IN
sructed the Auditor not to pay the January
interest on the State Debt The Conservative
delegate from this city voted against the reso-
luton, the passage of which, it is feared, will
have damaging effect upon the credit of the
State, and be taken as disposition on the part
of the majority, to favor reputation, which we
cannot, for moment, believe. The resolution
has vet to pass the Senate and then receive the
sanction of the Governor before it has the
effect Of law
