Nv i. telegram from the GAINESVILLE it will
ba seen that this popular packet Is on her way
here 10 return on Saturday. lite II Carlln
are AGENTS tor this steamer, and are ready to
be Interviewed concerning her.
Subsequent to the last meeting Of our City
Council, we made mention OF the fact that
;ue Mobile and Texas fiilroad had asked to
!,y. set aside. for their use and benefit, fifty
feet of the wharf immediately adjoining the
lower side of Canal street, and in few
words asked the rejection OF their petition at
The hands Of our Administrators.
As they will, most probably, act upon this
petition tomorrow, We again aliude to 1t, and
tep4at our request
The limits Of cur once splendid landings
are sufficiently contracted; in the busy season
10 ind a place squares above their regular
AIMING, ia which to discharge, thus incur
fiug ezra expense, and they think, and
ri,uty, TOO, that this evil is enough end they
Office: seriously o its increase, be it for the
TEXAS Railroad, or any one else.
THIS particular part of the wharf is used
now almost exclusively by Red River boats
ana were this space taken from them ana
riven to these petitioners, they would be
forced to land lower down. They argue that
tie railroad hasa portion Of the wharf al
ready allotted to them, and if they have not
room enough, they should take their chances
in finding more room III common with every
D .e else.
They object to any further entertainments.
They ask the City Adm Illustrators 10 refuse
this petition, and being i'll full sympathy
with then, We ada our voice to theirs.
The st. Mary, on arrival, will withdraw to
give uaee to the regular Opelousas packet
Bertha The latter steamer has been locked,
tho,ou ghly oyerhauled and painted, and is in
as fine order as she was tie day She left the
builders hands Her officers now on the st.
Mary. will resume their old positions on
the Bertha, the wednesday packet for Ope-
iOu4as.
Tho Gne steamer Texas is receiving, to
leave on Wednesday for Shreveport.
