APugiIIsIIc spirit manifested.

There was change in tactics upon the
part of the disorderlY inclined of the col
ored population Yesterday, and remarka-
BILE pugilistic feeling was manifested. The
day previous the arrests made by the police
were confined to violators of the ordinances
who found pleasure in driving trough the
lanes or chucking watermelons In the
street. Up to our latest accounts last
night, the record at the barracks showed
a number of arrests, which, with
the exception of two, were Of bellige-
rent eOlOred citizens. There seemed
to be fight in the air, and the colOred fra
ternity were apparently on their muscle.
About four o'clock in the afternoon
Policeman Jones Allen encountered Richard
Habersham, cOlOred, who was oOstructing
the street, ard when ordered to move out of
the way not only refused to do so, but be-
came very insolent to the officer, and finally
made an assault upon him. Richard was
subjugated in due time and led of to the
barracks, and will be before the Mayor to-
day.
At hslf-past ten o'clock last night con-
siderable excitement was created on the
street by savage fight between Prince Al
bert and Henry Williams, who were using
prOfane aud obscene language. This inter
estIng pair were rather, obstreperOus, but
Policemen Anglin aud HennessY put in an

The Old Cemetery.

Editor Morning NeOS: In order that the
citizens generally, and particularly those
most interested,shouldb be reliably informed
as to the proposed improvements of the Old
Cemetery on South Broad street, the under.
signed has conversed with some of our city
authorities having the more immediate
charge of the work, and CLEANED from them
such information as leads to the firm con-
viction that so far from any intention to ap-
propriate that spot for any other purposes
than was originally intended, that they pro-
pose to make such improvements as can
only be satisfactory to the fullest extent to
every good citizen.
Those improvements will consist 10 the
entire removal, with the consent of the
owners, Of all old vaults that have been
abandoned, the remains of such bodies as
have been deposited there having already
been transferred to other burial places.
The cutting down and thinning out of much
OF the shruObery which Is entirely too rank
aud luxuriant, which at present obscures
the sunlight, and 81 the same time affords
a too convenient shelter for the gross i'm
moralities which have been constantly
practiced within the enclosure.
Lastly, the removal OF the unsightly brick
wall and the erection of a neat railing, to-
gether with the widening of the pavement on
Abercorn street on a line with said street.
Much has been said about the legal rights of
Christ Church, aud also of private citi zens,
but we are at loss to see in what manner
any private rights win be infringed upon,
and We trust that our city authorities will
proceed at once with the work, feeling
assured that when completed they will re
ceive the thanks of the citizens generally,
instead Of what is tao often gratuitouslY
accorded them-expressions OF unwarranted
censure. DELTA.

A Lucky Find,

Yesterday afternoon a little son of Mr.. NJ.
7. Quinan, aged about eight years, while
coming down Broughton street, discovered
on the sidewalk near Lyons store pocket
book, which he Immediately picked up and
found to contain a large sum Of money.
The honest little fellow. thinking that it be-
longed to the store, carried it to Mr.. John
Lyons, and explaining where he found 1t
asked if # belonged to him. Mr.. Lyons in
formed him that 1t did not, and
told him he had better take it
home and give it to his father.
The little fellow at once marched home
with his prize, and, not seeing his father,
turned it over to bis mother. The pocket
book contained about $50. Later in the
evening the wife OF a well known citizen
called at Mr.. Quinan's, and stated that she
had lost her poeketbOOk somewhere on
Broughton street, and while hunting for it,
was informed by Mr.. Lyons that pocket
book had been found by young Quinan,
and that he had taken it home. The miss
log money proved to belong to the lady,
and was promptly delivered to her. 1t was
very fortunate that it should have been
found by such bright, honest little fellow,
otherwise she might have never seen it
again.
