City Council.
--A called meeting of this body was held at five o'clock, yesterday. Present, D. J. Saunders and a quorum.
On motion of Mr. Hill, the following preamble and resolution was adopted:
Whereas, The Secretary of War, through his Provost Marshal, having requested the city to remove the tobacco in Seabrook's Warehouse to a place more suitable for its destruction: Therefore,
Resolved, That the engineer of the city be directed to make arrangements for the removal of said tobacco, under the control of a committee appointed for that purpose.
Some discussion occurred upon an amendment offered by Mr. Scott to Mr. Mill's resolution, authorizing assistance to be rendered in the removal of tobacco from all of the principal warehouses.
The propriety of this being deemed objectionable, because it was thought that the force obtained would be too limited to effect the removal speedily, the amendment was rejected.
Mr. Scott offered a resolution, which was adopt
Shot for Interfering with the Provost Marshal's guard.
--Richard Barry, a member of Caskie's Rangers, was shot with a musket ball through the fleshy part of his thigh yesterday evening, under the following circumstances.--The Provost's armed guard had arrested a man either for desertion or disorderly conduct, and were in front of Seabrook's Warehouse with him, when Barry rode up on horseback and peremptorily ordered his release, accompanied by threats to shoot the man who had the prisoner in custody.
Seeing that the Ranger had cocked his pistol, and was quite likely to execute his threat, the officer in charge of the guard ordered one of them to fire, and the result above alluded to ensued.
The wounded man was taken to the Alexander Hospital, on Franklin street. He will recover.

A Touching incident.
--Whiles taking a catalogue of the wounded at Seabrook's Warehouse on Monday, our attention was arrested by a poor, delirious soldier, who, in piteous accents, was calling to his mother.
We involuntarily "brushed away a tear," and thought of that fond mother, who, at her home in the wilds of Florida, was perhaps at that moment praying for her son. By his side stood one of those angels, whose very presence would make hell a heaven, bathing his fevered brow.
"God bless her!" we thought, and passed on in our sad work.

The Hospital at Seabrook's Warehouse.
--On yesterday we spent a few hours in visiting the Hospital at Seabrook's Warehouse, now occupied by many of our wounded soldiers.
It gives us pleasure to state that the vigorous administration of Dr. Thom has swept away the formalities which attach to the department, and inaugurated a system which cannot be else than successful.
Red tape in times like these, when the enemy are battering at our doors, should be ignored.

Red tape in times like these, when the enemy are battering at our doors, should be ignored.
In visiting this Hospital, we were pleased to notice that few men in either of the wards we examined (those of Drs. Terrill and Carter) were given up to the King of Terrors.
Most of the desperate cases will survive.
Dr. Terrill is only an Assistant Surgeon, but he is a fine operator.
We witnessed several minor operations performed by him on yesterday.
They will all live.
Dr. Carter is a recent appointment, but from what we have witnessed is a most skillful surgeon.
He richly deserves a higher commission than the one
