STREET CLEANING IN THE SIXTH WARD-OSE
or THE CONTRACTORS WAKED UP.-The foil W.

Contractor for Second, Fourth and Sixth dist ,,cts
Now, If Patrick Coyle has been wron gfully
accused of neglecting the work he contracted
to do for the city. he has q right to be indi E.
nant and to demand white-washing at the
hands of committee of the city fathers.
But we are afraid that the petitioners were too
well informed, and that Mr.. Coyle has bad
case. We have appointed the committee he
asks for, and our reporters have-with the aid
of eau de Cologne and other agents useful in
neutralising the effect Of the various odors
which have long distinguished the Points
passed through various parts of the Sixth
ward, and, although it may be cleaner than
ueual, 1t is by NO means SO clean as it ought
to be. We recommend the city fathers to take
. ride In the Harlem cars through Centre
street to the Bowery-as they all have free
tickets, there will be no occasion to
call on the Councilmen for an appropria-
ton to pay the expense Of the trip
and more useful information will be gained
than by half dozen excursions to see steam
fire engines or marble quarries. We might
also direct Mr.. Coyle's attention to the condi.
ton of Walker street, between Centre street
and the Bowery. On Monday night there were
two or three sections of that avenue overlaid
with deposit which would be very useful for
agricultural purposes but which was decidedly
annoying in the public streets.

The WHO'S AT BOSTON AND THE ABOLITION
COALITION AT SARArooA.-From the proceed
ings which we publish to-day, Of the Massa-
chusetts Wing State Conversion, and the Sara
toga Abolition Coalition State Convention, it
appears that for all practical purposes, 10 oppo-
sitioR to Southern slavery, as between these
two conventions, the case stands about six for
one to half dozen for the other.
The Massachusetts, whig party has gone
back to the anti-slavery ground which it occu-
pied anterior to the speech Of Mr.. Webster of
March z. 1850. From and after that speech,
during Mr.. Webster's life, there was powerful
division of the Massachusetts, wings in support
Of his conservative pesce-promoting doctrines.
But Webster is dead, and Edward Everett, az
ter vainly endeavoring to supply his place
and maintain his ground, has fallen back upon
the quiet and more congenial life Of a
scholar in retirement Aud 80 the Massa.
chusetts wings, in the absence of a strong hand
to restrain them, have declared war upon the
South, In such terms and upon such issues as
must be exceedingly gratifying to Garrison,
Phillips, Parker, and George Thompson.
The Boston Convention ignores the South
ern wings, insults them, and dedes them. It
does not want them a. friends, but prefers them
as enemies, and declares It's policy to be CONT
nuous war against those very institutions Of
the South to which one-third of the people Of
Massachusetts, are directly indebted for the
means Of subsistence.
But the nomination Of the old whig ticket
by the Boston convention, with al their con-
cessiors to abolition fsnaticism, may possibly
fail Of that success which they anticipate.
Governor Washburn especially, and the wing
party in Massachusetts, generally, have been
the last year or two SO very fair and liberal
to the Catholics as to excite come inquiries on
the part Of the Know Nothings. As the Know
Nothings, from quite number of recent cleo
tions, have shown that they hold the balance
Of power in the old Bay State, perhaps the
trading politicians Of the democracy may take
advantage Of this circumstance, ~ they are apt
to do Of every thing that may be turned to some
account for the time being.
The proceedings the Saratoga Coalition
Convention are substantially what we have
predicted they would be; Tut in point Of fact
they are scarcely q whit more abolition In

the prospect Of civil discord at home and cx-
ternal dangers looming in the distance, per-
haps no better solution could be found for the
difficulties Of the present crisis. Divcstcd Of
the odious Influences by which it has hitherto
been SUR ounded, the constitutional throne is
the only .rallying cry that could for the mo-
|. mont hgFe enlisted the general support Of the
Spanish. people. Neither the Carlist nor the
republican party is as yet sufficiently strong to
push its pretensions with any hope Of imme-
date success They must each abide the course
Of events, and the revolutions Of opinion which
reflection and the conduct of the mcn who are
now at the head Of affa rs may bring about,
before they can expect to profit by move
ment which owes its triumph to their joint
efforts As to the chances Of the Due de
Montpensier, they can only be regarded as
coming within the range Of those accidents and
necessities which, in the evenly balanced strug-
giles of great contending interests sometimes
raise men Of no previous reputation or political
Influence to the height of power. II was to
such foriuitoua circumstances that Louis Napo-
leon owed his elevation to the Presidency and
in our own country we have witnessed too
maby instances Of the same cspricious results
of party Jealousy, to look upon such on event
as the ultimate choice Of a prince, who, If he
has but few friends, has still fewer enemies, as
very unlikely or impossible one.
Although the generosity manifested by the
Spanish people towards their errlng, and II
VIC are to believe her recent public declara-
tions, now repentant Queen, may be pushed to
the extent Of again putting IL in her power to
bctray the tried and faithful servants whom
the nation have once more placed at the head
OF affairs, we are mistaken II those men will
be satisfied with position which, as experience
has shown, no constitutional or moral guaran-
tees can defnitively secure. Pitiable aud hu-
initiating as are her assurances Of repentance,
we have bsh held too many royal presidents OF
hypocritica con'rition under similar circum
stances, and too many instances Of political
perfdy ard dissimulation on her own part, to
warrsnt a conviction Of their sincerity. A.
long as the baneful influence OF her mother eau
be exercised upon her, even from distance
there can be but little hope of anything like
steady perseverance in the promises which she
holds out To these facts Espartero and
o'Donnell must be fully alive, and they will
be wanting in their duty to the country, a.

TAKEN AT HIS WoRD.-Cromwel was
thinking of marrying his daughter to veal.
thy gentleman of Worcestershire, when he
was led to believe, by domestic gossip, that
one of his own chaplains, Mr.. Jeremy White,
young man of pleasing manners, and "a
top wit Of his court" was secretly paying his
addresses to Lady Frances, who was far from
discouraging his attentions. Entering his
daughters room suddenly one day, the pro-
teotor caught White on his knees, kissing the
lady's hand. "What is the meaning of this9"
he demanded. "May it please your highness,"
replied White, with great presence of mind,
pointing to one of the lady's maids, who hap
pened to be in the room, Il have long time
eourted that young gentlewoman, and cannot
prevail; was therefore humbly praying her
ladyship to intercede for me" "How now,
hussy ~ said Cromwell, to the young woman !;
why do you refuse the honor Mr.. White,
would do you9 He is my friend, and l ex-
pect you to to treat him as SUCH" eff Mr..
White intends me that honor" answered the
woman, with a very low courtesy, II shall not
be against him." "Sayst thou SO, my lass?''
said Cromwell; "call Goodwin! this business
shall be done presently, before 60 out of the
room" Goodwin, the chaplain, arrived -
White had gone too far to recede, and he was
married on the spot to the young woman

Nor BAD.--It is generally customary, on
the adjournment of our State Legislature, for
the members to have "good time," and they

On the adjournment of the late session,
several good things were said and done, not
the least of which was this. An honorable
member from our city offered the following
resolution
Resolved, That Committee be appointed
to inquire how many members of this honor
