THE wHARFBoAr QUEsrIoS.-Ths
Council last evening, after stormy de-
bate Of several hours duration. took final
action with regard TO the whariboats,
ordering them indiscriminately from the
landing. How far thoir action
was well advised and taken with
q view to serving the commercial inter-
esis Of the city, weare scarcely prepared
to say. The simple fact that there was q
division among the committee appointed
TO investigate the matter, and
minority as we'll as a msjority report
submitted, would at least indicate that
there are two sides to the question, and
that no action should be taken until the
grounds for'and against removal we're
thoroughly and thoughtfully Oanvassed
Was this done? We fear not.
The Council was offered elaborate
testimony, compiled by its committee,
and refused to hear ii. We're there facts
in that evidence elected from the
commercial men of the city which
the Council did not want to hear ?
Or were there facts which the Council
did not wish to reach the public2 The
evidence was taken by the committee in
full, as we understand, in order that the
public might be informed whether the
charges preferred against the own
ers of the wharfboats we're true
and we'll founded or not; and we,
on behalf of the public, call for
the reading Of the evidence. 1t is
not too late yet and unless the
Council has acted hastily and un-
advisedly, we can conceive no motive
which they can have in concealing
the facts as ELECTED from the merchants,
whose interests are professedly regarded
as at stake by the Council. OF the cava-
lier manner in which the merchants
petition was treated we have nothing
to say, but we would suggest
to tbs Board reconsideration of the
whole matter this evening, in order that
the suppressed evidence may be heard
The meeting this evening will afford an
opportunity of taking this action.

A ROYAL HORSE RACE I'm WURTEM-
RURs

The great royal horse race commenced
at Constadt, in Wurtemburg, on the
twentieth of last month, Besides the
usual racing of horses Of various ages
and countries, cavalry officers of the
army, in uniform, tried their advance
horses, by riding them at the greatest
speed, ever trenches and barriers. A
number of private gentlemen organized a
trotting match, which was to terminate
the festivity. Some American students,
headed by the son OF Mr.. Frank Leslie,
Of New York, intended to organize a
buggy race, but as there was but one
buggy in Stutgard, either for rent or sale,
Young America was prevented from ex-
hihiting that novel show to the goodly
people Of Wurtemburg. The first race
commenced little after three o'clock P.
NJ, in the presence Of about sixteen thou
sand people. At four o'clock the King
and Queen appeared on the race track,
attended by an immense suite of foreign
Princes and cavaliers on horseback When
the second race should have commenced
about ohe-third Of the whole length Of
tribune, crowded with from FIVE TO six
hundred ladies and gentlemen, broke
down with a thunder-like crash. The
whole crowd raised one cry of terror, but
the race continued after it was ascer-
tanned that no lives were lost though
nearly all those on the tribune were more
or less injured. Immediately after the
second race, the middle part Of the tri-
bune, about one hundred feet in length,
broke down also, and again upwards Of
five hundred people were dashed upon
the ground, and filed the air with their
lamentations The King galloped to the
spot the Queen condemned the Careless
ness with which the arrangements had
been made, and at once left the race track
The wounded were carried to the hospital
in procession. Gy FIVE o'clock, when
order was restored and the remaining
crowd were gathered around the ropes,
and upon that part Of the tribune which
was still standing, n new crash ensued,
aud the remaining portion, Of about the
same length as the former, and Likewise
crowded with people, broke down, and
the festival broke up in a universal STAN

IIE ALABAMIANS SENT TO THE
DRY TORTIGAG

1t is stated that Gen. Meade has prom
ised to pardon the seven citizens of Green
county, Ala, who have been banished to
the Dry Tortngas by military commits
sion, These men were thus sentenced for
an alleged assault upon person who hap
pened to be a Radical, but, enjoys a very
bad reputation. The New Orleans Pea
ynne says:
1t has transpired that they were brought
through this city with the greatest secrecy,
and placed on board of the steamship
Layaca, of the Florida line, which vessel
was detained here two days after her time
for sailing for this special purpose. The
prisoners were in irons, and in charge of a
guard, under the command of Federal
Major. The greatest excitement, we learn
prevailed along the Florida coast, at points
where the Lavaca touched en- route to the
Tortugas, and great sympathy was pub
licly expressed for the unfortunate priso-
ners, one of whom is gray-headed old
man.
At Apalachicola an excursion party,
composed mostly of ladies, went down from
the city to the anchorage, and went on
board of the Lavaca. Quite an affecting
scene took place there at the meeting be-
tween Mrs. Simmonds, the sister of Mr..
White, one of the prisoners, and her
daughter, who reside at Apalachicola. The
officer was in the after part of the vessel
when the meeting took place, but hearing
the cries of the ladies came forward and
put stop to the interview. He repri-
manded the guard severely TO having al
lowed the interview to take place without
his knowledge, when Mrs. Simmonds
begged that he would desist, saying that
she alone was TO blame Subsequently, the
officer, at the earnest solicitations of the
ladies, ordered the irons 20 be removed
from Mr.. White, and allowed him TO hold
private interview with his sister and niece.
Capt. Madge, whole-souled gentleman,
brought on board blankets, writing ma
terials, etc, for the prisoners, which the
officer at first positively refused TO allow
them to receive, but finally withdrew his
objections. At Pensacola also great sympa-
thy was publicly expressed for the friend
less when the Lavaca landed there.

AMERICAN PENSIONS PAID IN
SWITZERLAND.


We find it stated in the last report Of
the Swiss Consul General at Washing
ton to bis government, that forty pensions
were paid to the heirs of deceased solv
diers in the United States service who
lived in Switzerland. Since 1862 the
Consul General has received and for,
warded to his native land 1Il,776 francs
from the United States Treasury, for ar
rears of bounties and pensions for parents
Of former soldiers in our army This
is great liberality; for most of the Euro
pean governments, though they may pay
pensions, do not permit the proceeds
thereof TO be consumed abroad. For
instance, neither the family Of Bavarian
pensroner nor he himself, can draw
cent Of the pension il they reside in
France, England or the United States.
10 regard to Switzerland, we believe, the
reciprocity treaty of Mr.. Mann settled
that matter, and very likely Swiss pen
sioners or their relations living in the
United States may draw military pen
sions for services rendered to the Swiss
Confederacy, provided case of that
kind ever happens.
