MEMPHIS UATTERS.

MEMPHIS, May 6.-At a nesting OF the Gen
eral Council last evening Mayor League sent
| in four vetoes of measures passed at the last
meeting, looking to the adoption of new
charter.
! Among them was an ordinance creating q
board of five fire and police commissioners
| All the measures were passed over his We
toes BY overwhelming majorities, and James
Heath, A. Vsccaro, J. F. Frank, A. FL Moore
and II. Mogevency, ST., were elected q COM
missioners; all of whom are prominent citi-
zens and not politicians.
Az the ordinances passed ousted nearly all
the mayors appointees, it is reported that
several of them will apply for injunctions re-
straining the Council from displacing them.
MEMPHIS, May G.-There was meeting of
ex-Federal soldiers held this evening to con-
slider an invitation from . committee Of ex-
Confederate soldiers to participate in the APP

NJ. Bergeron, French inventor, has con.
ceived a novel idea for the removal of sand
from silted rivers, or bars and other deposits
from the mouths of harbors. The idea was
originated by an apparatus used in the Wor-
son @ro-steam engine. This consists of tube
pierced with small holes at the bottom of q
boiler, through which supply of air is
driven by pump at a higher pressure than
than that in the boiler. The Injection of air
produces such an agitation in the body Of the
water that all incrustation on either the tubes
or shell of the boiler is entirely prevented. It
occurred to NJ. Bergeron that a similar pro.
cess might be used for the removal of sand.
banks or other deposits.
He proposes to use metal pipes pierced
with holes inserted into the mass of the
sand-bank, and that water should be driven
through these pipes at considerable press
ure In this way he thinks that the sand
would be raised and agitated, and would thus
be carried away by the current of the river
or by the ebb tide, if the operation was con-
Quoted at the ebb. This operation seems
perfectly practicable, and could probably be
conducted at chespar rate than ordinary
dredging, since the water is thus made its
own scavenger, the exterior power being SIM
ply used to loosen and dispense the solid col
lections of sand

THE CITY.

UNRuLY BoYs.-On Carondelet street, be
tween Felicity Road and ST. Mary, an unruly
crowd of urchins congregate every evening
who seem to be imbued with spirit of mis-
chievousness seldom to be found in persons
Of such tender age. Their principal pastime.
are throwing mud and stones, and in fact any
missiles that are to be found handy.
Last evening baby about two or three
years old, was struck on the head and quite
severely Injured by stone thrown from an
article familiarity known among the boys as q
'nigger-shooter," aimed by one of these pre-
| cocous lads at another, but missing him,
unfortunately struck the little child.
If a certain policeman could be induced to
leave the seductions of q corner grocery and
pay visit to this locality-say. between the
hours OF 5 and o'clock P. M.-the sport of
these boys might be abruptly ended.
fFrom Yesterdays Evening Edition.l
SUICIDE Fo1LED.-A man named William
Maxley, aged about twenty.seven years, was
arrested this morning at o'clock by Officer
Mullen, OF the Harbor, at the Canal street

The officer prevented the commission of the
rash act and locked the young man up in the
station tor safe keeping, charging him with
insanity.
FIRE.-At halfpast II O'Clock last night, q
fire broke out in the unoccupied one-story
frame house on St Anthony, between st.
Claude and Rampant Streets and owned by
Francois Oasales. the building was totally
destroyed. Loss $500. Insured for $500 in
the New Orleans Insurance Company. The
alarm was turned in from box 3l4. Cause of
fire unknown.
A SACRMEGEoUs PICRPoKEr.-One Felix
Massier, was this morning arrested in front of
the Jesuits' church, on Baronne street,
charged by j. Bolmeke, with an attempt to
pick the pockets of lady who was coming
out of church. Massier was taken to the
Central Station, where he has been several
times before as a dangerous and suspicious
character.
MIscELLANEoUs.-Henry Hayes was found
on the steamer Pargoud, at the head of
Gravier street, stealing cotton-ties. Being
tired of this little game, Officer Horrigan ran
Hayes into the Harbor Station, and charged |
him with larceny.
George Estelle, q man aged thirty-three |
years, was sent to Charity Hospital at 6 |
0 clock this morning, having been found in a |
