occasion presented Since that glorious
epoch in our history these police DULLES have
generally been remarkably quiet and subdued
IN their demeanor, rightly deeming it polite
and wholesome SO to be. But now and Their
the old insolent spirit crops out As an in
stance, we will mention that on Monday night
at half-past - o'clock, two policemen entered
the oyster house, II Royal street, and de-
manded lunch, as they called it.
On being very properly refused, they rudely
accosted the proprietor, and threatened hin
for having several barrels OF oyster shells on
| the banquette, using at the same time very
violent and insulting language. These bar
rels were placed there to be carted away at 2
o'clock in the morning, did not obstruct the
passage, and were not offensive in any way
The cause OF the rudeness and threats OF the
policeman is very apparent, but that little
game cannot be safely repeated

ANOTHER VENDETTA. About half-past 8
o'clock last night a Sicilian named G.. Rose,
while passing the corner Of Chartres and Du-

some unknown assassin with a shot gun

head. The wounds were dressed by Mr.. L.
Llado, druggist, corner of Chartres and Du-
maine streets, who pronounced them danger
Gus, after which he was removed to his resi-
dence on Royal street, between Dumaine and

SERVES HIM RIGHT.-Edward Townsend, at
half-p st three o'clock Yesterday afternoon,
was induced to enter den on Burgundy, be-

some seven dollars were distracted from his
pantaloons by the black and tan Marie, who
was arrested and locked up in the jackson
Square Station, where the man made charge
against her for larceny. If the man had COM
mon sense he would have let the thing drop,
and not appeared in court to make an affidavit,
which is not worth the paper it is written on,
for every one thinks as we do, that it serves
him right.

THE CHARITY CASE. Now that the Police
Board have finished their labors of canvassing
the wards and voting for the Radical ticket,
will they open their hearts to the reporters,
and have those burners and globes replaced
in the front room at police headquarters, that
were broken by their friends before the cleo
ton. Surely there must be money enough left
in the treasury to do this. The porter has
done his duty in giving the shades a washing,
and all that remains to be done is for the
Board to pay for the burners and globes. We
ask for more light and We are anxious Of seeing
he work finished
