Changes and Improvements In tho De-
partment.
At meeting OF the Board OF Police, held yes
terday afternoon, Captain Sanders was transferred
from the sixteenth to the Twenty-third precinct
Captain Cheney from the Twenty third to the Six
teenth, Captain Garland from the Thirteenth to the
Twenty-eighth and Captain Hedden from the
TwentY-eighth to the Thirteenth. All the papers
necessary for the procuring OF for the police
were yesterday signed by the Mayor and forwarded
to General Duryee, who will have them sent to the
Governor for hnal adjustment.
The instruction OF officers in the manual of
arms 10 to be begun at once by Captain Copeland
and under the direction OF General Duryee, and it
1s expected that by the time the guns are sent to
the station houses there will be large number of
men already familiar with the management OF
them. Sergeants Rockwell and Lines changed
places yesterday, under the direction OF the Board.
The special duty men In the several precincts
were ordered by President Smith to watch the
tenement houses III their districts narrowly and
arrest all parties throwing ashes and garbage in
the streets. This action was found necessary be-
cause the people threw the refuse out on the SIDE
walks as soon as the officer on duty turned his
back.
Ward detectives always 90 about in plain clothes
and the people will not be able to recognize them
80 that the Commissioners, in this way hope be
able to put stop to the nuisance.

There was fair business In the leading articles
OF merchandise to-day, though the general markets
were dull ana irregular. There was but little
doing in dry goods and not over much In hardware.
&C. Cotton was still duh and irregular. Flour was
in good request and frm with several scattering
sales at slight Improvement, but the market was
not generally higher. Wheat was sti active for
shipment, and prices were higher; purchases
to arrive, at full prices gave evidence
Of continued faith In a frm market through the
Summer. Corn was dun and little or In price.
Oats were hrmer. Whiskey, pork and lard were all
easier
Groceries were quiet and unchanged, with the

We fear We have got maIiciously
disposed sexton among US. Noticing
habit among the young men of de-
posting their hslf-smoked cigars in
the porch upon entering the church,
he gathere,i I'D the relics the other
evening and carefully depOsiting a
drop of croton oil In the chewed end,
conscientiously returned the veterans
to their places and abided the result.
When tire service WAS over the young
men came cut, recovered their cigars,
put them in their mouths, applied the
lights, and then the suction, aud the
next moment had lost all control
over themselves, aud were dancing
out in the street, slapping their jaws,
and using such awful language that
we can't beAr to think of il. How
ever, they didn't remain in the neigh
borhoOd but moment. The rest Of
the congregation had but time to note
the extraordinary performance, when
the actors, disappeared. with an extra
howl apiece, and at a gait that left no
doubts of their sincerity.
