ON DIT.

The Dey of Algiers is in durance vile at
the Third Precinct Station.
-. There was considerable excitement on
Carondelet street on Saturday, over the ex-
posure of the workings Of the warrant ring.
We are informed that Mr.. Joseph
Walker, the proprietor of the "Bank, has
purchased the unexpired lease OF the Cres-
cent Hall.
The reason the employees Of the city are
being discharged at present is, that the budget
was absorbed and Major Burke was COM
PEELED to reduce his force.
The throng of ladies yesterday after
noon, as they poured forth from the Varieties
matinee, seemed like some swarm of butter
flies lust let loose, and called to mind some of
the brilliant Saturdays Of last winter.
"A well-knoEn attorney remained out of
his office during the whole Of yesterday, fear
ing there would be more petitions presented
to him for signature recommending another
candidate for the vacant United States judg-
ship.
AT on election of the Fifteenth Ward
Radical Club, held in A,giers, on the 5!h,
David Mason was elected President; Charles
Hill, Secretary, and Titus Burns, Treasurer.
Hill ran ahead Of his ticket, receiving 776
votes, to bis competitors 81.
-. Potter, who has been annoyed for some
time pas. with tie apologies for servants now
going about, suggests that the prize said to
be eff red by the English government for the
inventor of perpetual motion be turned
over to the individual who may originate G.
machine to do housework, cooking and wash
ing without tongue in its head.
90. And now another Richmond steps into
the field North Louisiana, feeling that she
has something to say about the Judgeship OF
the United States District Court, has put for
ward the Hon john Ray as its choice for the
position. II appears Ae has been counting
Judge Hawkins only to throw him off the
track and get tie inside place himself.
The citizens Of the Second Ward, about
$50 strong, met last night at the corner of
Rampant and Deiord streets, for the purpose
Of org anizing Democratic club. The meet
ing was ca led to order by Mr.. NJ. Q. Reyes,
who stated the object Of the same. After
which the club adopted the name of the Dia-
mond Guards, and elected the following per-
manent officers
Jno. Logan, President; E. Burke and VIM.
Feeney, Vice Presidents; VIM. Comerford,
Secretary; Henry Hourbelght, Treasurer; j..
G. Murphy, NJ .rshal Nj. Hennessy, Assistant
Marshal; Jno Scott, Sergeant-a.-Arms.
After committee on finance and constitu-
ton and bylaws being appointed, the club

-. 1T is somewhat singular how certain
localities in city become, as it were, devoted
to the sale of certain things. For instance the
corner of Elk change Alley and Canal street has
been for a number of years past the Genital
dog mart here. Pointers and settlers. poodles
and St. Demands, can be seen almost any day
in winter here on exhibition, whilst at the
next corner beneath the sheltering awning OF
A. B. Girls void & Co., the flower women have
long held occupation, as it were, by some
right of presumption. Carondelet and st.
Charles, near Canal, have both become the
principal stands for the hunters, and OF after
moons the display OF grasse, papaoot, rail and
wild duck is enough to give even dyspeptic
an appetite 1t would seem these vendors, by
some unknown law, drift to these localities.
