A Sharp Thief.

Yesterday morning an enterprising negro
from Augusta, giving the name Of Bill
Moon, who came here with the excursion
lists, concluded to make little haul in the
Forest City to pay the expenses of the trip.
He meandered around several stores, and it
seems was successful in securing a pair
of pants from the clothing store of
of Max Eisman, on Bryan street, near Bar
nard. Concealiug these pants on his per-
son, he dropped around to the grocery
establishment of Messrs. Solomon Bros.
on the Bay, and commenced to reconnoitre.
Taking advantage of an apparent favorable
opportunity he seized a small caddy of to-
bacco and placed it under his coat. Fortu-
nately he was observed and before he knew
it was turned over to Policeman Clancy,
who carried him to the barracks. 1t is
probable that Bill's friends will not see him
IN Augusta for some time, as his services
will likely be needed at Cuyler swamp.

The COlOred Military and Citizens.
The imposing demonstration made by the
eolored troops on Thursday was credit to
that class of our population, and the fes-
tivities, which were continued yesterday,
were unmarked by any disorderly or disre-
putable proceedings. Considering the i'm
mense crowds which had thus been brought
together from different cities and the great
license permitted, it is really commenda-
Bile that nothing has occurred that
was not within the bounds of propriety and
order. The route of the procession, We I'M
derstand, took in Whitaker street simply
that the troops could have the opportunity
OF passing the MORNING News
office, testifying their appreciation
of the manner in which they have always
been dealt with by this journal. We are al
ways pleased to note the orderly conduct
of our colored people, especially on
occasions where there is so much eX-
element, and IN this instance
can say that the celebration so far has been
conducted in a manner infinitely creditable
to their race. Yesterday was devoted to
social eDjoYments, and there were pic
mics to Thunderbolt and elsewhere, an ex-
cursion to Beaufort, and entertainments
at the several armories.

Should Come Through the Port of
Savannah.

The report of the Directors of the Geor.
gia Railroad, recently published, stated that
some ninety miles of the road had been laid
with steel rails, leaving about eighty miles
yet to cover. The steel rails for this portion
valued at $lS7, 100 A, have been purchased
We understand that this material will
shortly be shipped from England
and It is reported will be sent
via Port Royal. We can hardly
credit this rumor, as it would seem thai
Savannah is the port through which fl
should be shipped, offering, as it does
greater facilities and conveniences, and the
expense of transportation would be less.
We merely mention this, as there is sur
prise expressed that the shipment should
be contemplated by any other way thar
through this port.

Row Among Sailors.

About 10 o'clock yesterday morning Bay
street, between Lincoln and Habersham
streets, was the scene of very lively fracas
between two sailors, which at one time
promised to be productive of very serious
results. The men, we are Informed, had
been playing cards in a barroom, when a
dispute arose In regard to some point in the
game. They left the table in anger, and
some pretty vigorous and profane compli-
ments were iHterchsnged as they neared the
door of the saloon. One of the men, Rus
elan, becoming greatly excited, drew a
large sheath knife and rushed savagely upon
his antagonist, who, however, with a well
directed blow from a club, knocked the
weapon out of his hands. They then clinch-
ed and pummeled one another In the live
Hest style for about five minutes, when they
were separated by friends. Neither party
was seriously injured. though they were
badly bruised. No policeman Glanced to
be in the vicinity at the time. aud conse-
uuently the combatants escaped arrest.
