There was an unusual stir among the
inhabitants Of the western part of the
city yesterday in consequence Of the ac-
tivity of the collectors OF the ashes which
had been accumulating for weeks. The
complaint against the collectors bore
fruit for an army OF ash gatherers could
be seen hnstling for all they were worth.
There was an army Of colJred
men under the command of a white gem
ersl, who issued his commands in
stentorian voice and appeared taxed
with more anxiety than if he was leading
an army Of real soldiers to blot out Will
mingtop. The news that the ashes were
to be taken from the yards soon spread
and old women AMI older men were to be
seen depositing boxes and barrels Of
ashes beneath the nearest treas. Soon
the army arrived. three carts and dozen
of men, and quickly all the barrels were
dumped into the carts. There was no
superiuous ashes yesterday, but citizens
hope that the collectors will come more
regularly in future.
