| Meeting of the City Council |
| A special
meeting of the City Council was held last evening, to consider a
petition from the Va. Central Rail Road Company, asking leave to erect
a temporary track from their depot to the {Richmond}
Fredericksburg {& Potomac} depot
on Broad street, for the purpose of removing engines and other rolling
stock, blocked out from running by the movements of the enemy. As the
track would only be allowed to remain for a short time upon the street
– no longer, in fact, than necessary for the removal of the stock
alluded to – the petition was granted.
