y LOAD OF WooD-4 Few Refecfions.-
A mournful procession filed up St. Charles
street - one o'clock last evening. A sad
looking dsiver sat on top of Aalf a cord OF
ash. two weary muies led the van. This
establishment was tianked by two mounted
MetrOpolitans, who sat their steeds as il
screwed to the saddles; they were unrelent-
ing and unsympathizing, as well drilled OIL
GERS should be. The wood and wagon
seemed invested with deal of interest a.
they proceeded along that great thorough
fare, observed by keen eyes of hundreds of
people. AS it was useless, not even one of
the boldest sticks of wood in that load
to shake itself N anger, while the wagon
wheels did not wall ont single grOan or
shrek, crossing the square blocks as gently
tege passed until the central station
house was reached: peremptory halt
was sounded : that mourning driver
descended from his great height, was
walked up 10 the turnkey, questioned as to
name, age. occupation, nativity, married or
breakfast last year. These important
queries were answered catcgorcally, and
something like an alias habeas corpus snaked
him up the stalk, into the Recorders Court,
where his senses seemed to resume their
wonted sway. and Henry English was him
self again. Suddenly he became aware OF
his critical position, and grew equal to the
emergency. The court instructed him that
he had violated one Of the most cherished
ordinances of this notorious city; one OF
those learned laws which strive 10 prevent
poor industrious man from obtaining a
living for his family. This city must have
its pound of license flesh. though every man
woman and child starve or freeze. Gaining
his breath once more, poor English paid a
fine, and silently cursed about too many
laws making q despotism. But of course he
was wrong in thinking that our laws are not
correct.
