10 Tie Mayor and Gentlemen Of The
City Council Of Nem Orleans:
In the report of your official action,
published in the Bee of the 10th instant,
find the following extracted resolutions,
with the action of part Of your body
thereon-yiz
TAs following preamble and resolution,
offered by Mr.. Stilb, were read twice
and adopted. The rules being suspen-
ded, they were OH motion, sent to the AS.

Huclii.s, Rodin. and Stith--5:
Whereas. 1t has come to the knowledge
of this Council that, for the first time in
the history ot tits city, large feet OF
the navy of France is about to visit New
Orleans-of which feet, the Cabinet,
now in ourport, is the pioneer-;his Coun-
ell, bearing IN grateful remembrance the
many ties Of amity-and good feeling
which unite the people of this city with
those OF France, to whose paternal pro-
lection New Orleans owes its foundation
and early prosperity, and to whom it is
especially grateful for the jealousy with
which, in the ccssion of the State. il
guaranteed ali the rights of property.
person, and religious freedom of its ciii-
zens--
Be it Resolved, That the freedom and
Inequalities Of the city of New Orleans
be 'endeied, through the commander of
the Cabinet, to the French naval fleet
during It's setoufn in our port, and that
committee OF five of this Council be an
pointed, with the Mayor, to make such
tender and such other arrangements rs
may De necessary to give effect to the
same.
Messrs. Stith and Forcsta, were an
pointed on the cou.mi. tee mentioned IN
the foregoing resolution.
ms acton is an insult, as well to the
nited States, as TO the friendly and nov.
eriui nation towards whose officers i ia
directed. The offer of the freedom Of a
captured city BY the csptiyes would merit
letters patent for its novelty, were there
not doubts of its usefulness as an inxe.-
ton The tender Of It's Inequalities kv
Government to which police duties and
sanitary regulations only are entrusted, is |
SIMPLY an invitation to the calsboose or |
hospital. The United States authorities
are the only ones here capable Of dealinr
with amicable or unamicable nations ana
VIZ see to Ii that such acts of courtesy /
OF assistance are extended to any armed /
vessel OF the Emperor Of France as shall /
testify the national, traditional and hc- |
feditary feelingsof grateful remembrance !
with which tie United States Gover
ineht and people appreciate the early mid
OF france, and her many acts Of friendly |
regard, shown upon SO many na,ional IA
hting occasions.
The action of the City Council in this |
behalf must be revised

SEND NO FREIoHT THAT WAY.-Let it be re-
membered, now and always, of the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad, that its Board of Directors
by large majority refused to require its EN-
ployees to take the oath of allegiance to the
United States. Whatever lying excuses may
be offered for this conduct, it is simply disloya
and should be discountenanced by all loyal
men. The miserable sycophants of vulgar
and barbarous aristocracy, still cling to their
idolatry, and doat upon the incendiary scoun.

burnt the locomotives at Msrtinsburg, iand tore

the Southern rebellion, rewarded with deyo.
