AaREsrEp.-Ths unfortunate individual, who
dives a cart for the benefit Of the inmates Of the
indiana Asylum for the In'afe. was arrested the
other day. by our indefatigabh City Marshal, for
driving on the sidewalks. The insane and mel
ancholy Mr.. French had some trading to do at
Andy wallace's grocery, and, laboring under a
halucination. conceived that he was a privileged
character. He brought M standing and
fined. and the fine lie had to pay and the costs
also. Thercat the Hon. Andy Wallace, who sells
all the groceries TO the Lunatic Asylum, has be-
come indignant, as patriot who is putting money
in his pocket daily during these war times ought
TO be, and now IS moving heaven and earth and
the Common Council to dsplace the City Mar
shal. Mr. City Marshal was elected by the peo-
pie and has but performed his duty in the premi-
ses. He, therefore, we should suppose, defes
the Hon. ANDY Wallace. who sells groceries for
the Insane Asylum; and he probably thinks that
il the free and independent voters ef Indianapolis
ever have an opportunity hereafter to express
their sentiments with regard to that gentleman
they would send him TO the Insane Asylum along
with VIM. NJ French who drives a cart.
