give shape and discipline and unity and cohe-
sion to their piebald legions and mercenaries
Of all kinds, and to prepare some general plan
Of operations in view Of q future convention
for the nomination of their Presidential ticket.
Holding their convention at point between
two rivers, frozen over in some places to the
bottom, we hope they will be able to keep cool
We suspect that this Pittsburg gathering was
partly intended a. scarecrow to the Northern
birds of doubtful plunage assembled at Phila-
delpAia, and we fear it has had some effect
upon them. But 80 it is the result which
crowns all, we await the upshot Of the row at
Philadelphia, and the conclusion of the

POETRY OF Cry LIFE-THE Snow CLAD HILLS
OF BRoADwAY.-The yearly amount paid by
our citizens for keeping our streets clear of
rubbish is set down in our annual tax bill at
between 100000 aud 100000 In addition
to this the Councimen have just appropriated
an additional sum Of $4,000 for the purpose
Of removing the accumulations of snow and
ice which for some weeks past have rendered
the public thoroughfares almost impossible.
Now, since the storm of the 9Th of January, the
Street Commissioner has had no opportunity
of spending anything for the execution OF the
ordinary work of his department. The heavy
falls Of snow which have interrupted the gene
raj business Of the community have also rem
dered Mr. Ebling's office sinecure. lie has.
therefore, or ought to have, in bis hands. the
proportion Of the regular tax which was in
tended to cover the last six weeks, besides the
extraordinary appropriation recently made.
How is he employing these resources?

wards the people Of the United StateA We are
not utterly helpless-we are not powerless; and
it 10 this fact, well known to the nations Of Eu-
rope, which places the London Cabinet In
most contemplate position. 1t drops away
from the discussion Of the merits Of the con-
troversy, In which 1t has been wholly unsuc-
cessful, to q dashing assertion Of its power to
enforce its position upon its adversary. 1t
leaves the field of argument to exalt and mag
nifty its own resources, chuckling over its pros
pect of peace with Russia, and Of being able,
by q single blow, to crush the United States.
All this is characteristic of the British aristo-
cracy; but it is no evidence either Of the justice
of British pretentions in Central America or
of it's power, ultimately, to enforce those pre-
tentions against the opposition of the United
States 1t is no evidence Of an advance of
England, either in the elements Of civilization
or Of positive courage, to meet the issue in
volved in the dispute between the two coun-
tries. It may be well, just ct this time, when
the Powers Of the Continent are about to be
recognized and new combinations effected, to
talk big towards this republic and to magnify
the resources of the kingdom; but such things
are 80 we'll understood on this side of the
water as to leave no other impression upon
the public mind than that Of indifference and
contempt.
We can ill-afiord to engage in war with
England about Central America; but once IN
dertaken, there can be no doubt of the result
The United States possess more resources for
war than any other sixty millions of people on
the globe; more than double those of England.
These resources may not be at first entirely
accessible; but they will be developed,
even upon the high seas with mar
vellous CELEBRITY, and upon the land in full
season to meet every possible contingency.
We shall not require, in such contest, an
auxiliary force in the heart of the British
nation but we shall have it in all the great
trade, manufacturing, moneyed and navigation
interests of the kingdom-in all central, pros
porous, Industrial England. Such war will
light up the fires of democracy on every hill
and in every valley of that country it will oe
the signal Of collision between freedom and
absolutism every where. The seeds of free
government have been sown in all parts of the
world they have taken root in England, and
they will grow aud ripen and be harvested
by such war. 1t is possible that the
United States may be driven into contro
versy which, in its consequences, will serve to
stir up the slumoering energies of democracy
al hasten the utter downfall of aristo tracy.
But what is the duty of Congress in view OF
these facts? Is it not to throw aside the selfish
chickering's Of politicians ana act for the conn
try? Is ii not in the face Of the threats OF
England 70 prepare for the emergency lie.
Congress take up the subject Of our navy, in.
crease our steam vessels of war, look after our
coast defences, and place the United States in
an attitude that will show to the world thai
we are prepared to maintain our rights at all
hazards.

courage on the part of foot passengers to ira
verse. Here and there, longo interuaQo, may be
discovered Simplon, through whose sinuosi-
ties the traveller may wind his puzzled way
across; but we have heard OF more than one
instance in which hopeless females have been
lost in these Broadway Alps Now, If this ar
rangement were effective for the object contem-
plated, we should not pay so much attention to
these individual cases of distress But it un-
fortunately happens that by confning vehicles
to this single file passage on either side, the
slightest obstruction or accident arrests the
whole circulation Of the street Although our
stage drivers are proverbially do ring, they are
not insane enough to attempt to surmount the
barriers opposed to their enterprise by the
Street Commissioner. The consequence is that
frequently for half an hour together, a long
line of vehicles is kept stationary by the fall
ing Of horse at its head, or by some other Of
the numerous street casualties, which in orai-
nary times would scarcely cause moments
delay.
With the large amount Of funds which Mr..
Ebling has had placed at his disposal, we
cannot understand the motive of this mode
of proceeding. Is it economy? We can easily
show him that the plan he has adopted will
prove no saving at all. His snow piles will be
consolidated into standing nuisance whilst
the cold weather lasts, and in the end addi
tional sums will have to be voted for their re-
movsl, seeing that the street soil is collected
with them. In the meanwhile, the city will
have to suffer all the inconvenience and an
noyance arising from an obstruction which
renders the passage of vehicles of little or NO
value owing to the slowness at which they
are compelled to move.
The proper and only efficient mode of re-
lieving the thoroughfares would be to have
certain amount Of the SNOW carried away, and
the rest SO equally distributed over the street
as to ensure its easy liquidation by the sun.
Where this has been done by private enterprise,
the results have been most satisfactory. With
the money which Mr. Ebling has in hand, and
the abundance of unemployed labor which the
severity of the season has unfortunately placed
at his disposal, we cannot imagine why he has
resorted to the present Ineffective plan.
