ssSTEAM ENGINEs on CANAL STREET. -

Under this heading notice was published
in the newspapers of Friday morning, inviting
the owners of property on Canal street, to as
semble at Hawkins saloon on Saturday even
ing to take action against the running of these
steam engines. We have been requested by
Mr.. Lewis. the Secretary of the City r silroad
Company, to correct IN apparent misappre-
hension existing in the minds of the gentle
men calling that meeting. 1t is not proposed
to run the steam engines all the way into the
city; they will be attached to, and taken from
the cars at the station just beyond Broad
street, and will come no nearer the city.
We are satisfied that there will not be the
least objection on the part of owners of
property beyond that point, and it is probable
that the gentlemen who called the meeting
under the erroneous impression that the en-
gines would run through the more thiokly
inhabited portions of the street will now see
that meeting is unnecessary to accomplish
their wishes. The company deserve encour-
agementin their project, and We trust no OBJ
lection not based on serious causes will be
offered to the progress of the work.

The Attempted Homicide in Al.

The Victim Will Possibly Recover.

The BULLETIN Of Friday morning contained
an account of the serious wounding of Mr..
William Mckee, in Algiers, on the previous
night, by negro named Anderson. It was
announced as the opinion Of Drs. Scott and
Reilly, who attended Mr.. Mckee, that the
wounds inflicted were mortal The friends
of Mr.. Mckee will be pleased to learn that
these physicians are now more hopeful OF
saving his life, and think that, although he is
by no means out Of danger, the indications
are that he will recover.
Mr.. Mckee is partnern Of Mr.. John Null
hern (not Mulheim as first published) in
