ASHES ON THIS SIDEwALK.-There scems
to be two parties on the question of throw
i'g ashes on the iced sidewak--the re-
suit of which is two prayers daily offered,
which run as follows;
PRAYER OF THE OLD FOLKS
Pray, scatter ashes on the sidewalk,
Or salt, or saw dust, or fine sand,
That we may freely walk uprightly,"
Oar feet their slippery way withstand,
Fray scatter with aliberal hand,
On every side,
Both far and wide.
PRAYER OF THE YOUNG FOLKS,
Put not an ash upon the sidewalk,
No sand no saw dust, neither salt,
That we may slide down hill with free
dom,
And if the old folks will find fault,
Because weslide and make them halt.
IT their old soles are sorely tried,
Why, let 'em slide.

So anxious was this distinguished gen.

he went to Washington and made per-

however, worked their engine to perfection

Foreign Interference.

A Washington correspondent of the
New York Herald sends that paper the
following news, which may be taken for
what it is worth:
1t is useless to disguise the fac. that
leading members of the diplomatic corps
in Washington are engaged in constant
and anxious discussion on the course it
may be necessary for them to adopt.
They have constantly received urgent in
structions from their respective govern
ments to inform them with the utmost
precision of the chances of the two sections
in their present quarrel.
1t is leaking out that the governments
in question declare that their commercial
interests are identified in a great measure
with the Sonth, and that if they are forced
into taking sides with either, they will be
compelled to look carefully after cotton
and free trade. England is disposed to
move cautiously in this important matter,
and is playing her usual game of urging
France to take the ches.nuts out of the
fire.
Inc country ma not be generally aware
of the fact that there is at this moment an
agent Of the French Emperor travelling in
the South by the name of Barroche. He
is instructed TO Say that hs is simply col
lecting information for the commercial
bureau for the minister of public works,
but it is an artifce. He is a polcical
more than a commercial agent, ard his
dispatches, regularly forwarded for Paris,
necessarily exercise great influence over
the mind Of the Emperor.
1t is beginning to transpire that Mr..
Russell, correspondent of the London
Times, is not merely writing letters to
that journal, but that his private commu-
nications for higher quarters, contain a
good deal of interesting matter which he
does not think it discreet to print.

Beautiful Language.

The following is an extract from letter
in the last Wisconsin Democrat, German
Republican paper in this town. The letter
is from its editor, who is in Washington.
He says:
al learn ,ba, the editor Of the Pilot
and swindler from New York, are going
together in secession. Put such mean
traitors and scoundrels in the pillory. and
make it a general duty of every citizen
who loves the Union and the Constitution
to abominate and des pise such low traitors
How can it be allowed in Manitowoc, that
a CROWLEY of the Pilot can publicly pros
tect, defeno and celebrate a JEFFERsoN
DAVIS, the principal conspirator and the
plague-sore of this Republic for years.
That CROWLEY is such rotten Hunker
politician the difference between right and
wrong is mixed in him, and the sense Of
patriotism is drowned in mean whiskey."
Is not the above beautiful specimen of
" free speech as understood by CHARLES
RGsER and his followers. This man has,
for years, preached and advocated the
identical doctrines in Wisconsin upon
which JEFF. DAVIS is now acting in the
South, viz: notification of law and viola
tion of the Constitution. Long before
bis settlement here. if law had been en-
forced, "piilory" or some other mode
of punishment would be his reward
He belongs to class who respect neither
the laws of God nor the feelings Of man
whose patriotism is confined to infdelity
whose love of country amounts to per-
secution of those who will not come un-
der his fanatical and narrow minded spirit
of intolerance, and who, if the occasion
should suit, would be just as likely to en-
ter into religious raid-sparing neither
age nor sex-as he is now ready to put in
to the pillory all men who will not follow
his notions of patriotism. This RGsER
possesses not spark Of honesty or integ-
rity. He has betrayed the men who warm
ed him into life-selling his party and
friends for thirty pieces of silver" is a
common trait in his character, and he has
become so odious to his own country men
here that large-we might say the whole
and respectable portion of them have
refused to countenance his vile sheet, and
have established another organ rather than
be further disgraced by the productions of
his dirty pen. He i. now in Washington,
occupied in begging sold clothes" and
cold victuals" from President LINCOLN.
Such scavengers deserve no pity, and the
President in "booting" HIM out of his
presence would be justified by RGsER's
countrymen here, if they were no. in fear
that such an act would cause the return
of his obnoxious person again to Mani,o
wno
