"About three o'clock on Friday afternoon a dark and

overcast the sky. The atmosphere became d o s, an d

stones • were of the Size af a man's clenched fist,
and solid as canister balls, which they very much re
sembled in appearance. They were in most cabs nearly
round, but slightly flattened on two sides like an apple,
with smell holes or indentat ions, reschnbling the place
where the stem joins the core, on one side. In less time
than it takes to write it, the streets in the lower portion
of the city; or that part nearest the river, were covered
to the depth of a foot with those wonderful halls of ice,
and every window facing the north , from which direction
the storm came; filled with broken panes. •
"The depth of the hall and water on' Main street was

nearly five feet high. The sewers were of great service,

THE DELAWARE LASH.
A Good Scorin Given toe Defender of
the
System.
The Wihnington . Conunercial thus pitches
into, Cuts up and generally macerates an edi
tor who ventures to assail it:
Delaerarean;'owiwil and-run by the Saulsbury ring
at Pover, says:
It may not be amiss to remind the editors of the
Commercial', who violate common decency by traducing
the State whose laws protect their lives and property.
that •it may next be proposed' to enact a law punishing
with thirty lashes and a convict's jacket every ingrate
editor that comes into the state to encourage a disregard
of law by opposing the execution of punishments meted
out to criminals.-
To which we have to reply: •
1. That the men who most "violate commoti ; :decency,'
in this State. are those :—Who enact and Maintain the
laws for public dogging and pillorying; Who make
drunken and beastly exhibition of themselves in the
public streets Wilmington, and In thernittsl States
Senate; Who maintain. with a shameless despotism, al
their family in public office, and pervert law. decency
and justice to keep theme:lves there ; Who load the msvplo
with outrageous tax.ation; Who match their ignorance
with their meapability to learn; Who corrupt and coerco
the law-making-body of the State; Who bully and insult
their political allies; and make their party merely a
vehicle for their own personal advantage.
2. If the men who most injured this State; destroyed its
reputation; stained its name; lowered its credit; injured
the value of its property; insulted its lasd citizens; spat
upon its National ties; kicked its Union soldiwrs; Marthal.
its progress; and in general "traduced" tile name of
Itebtware; were to be whipped, there isn't a member of
the hover ring, or one of their brothers, brothertoin-law,
uncles.sons,uephews, grandsons, cousins. or coutiec t
that wouldn't be tied up by the Sheriff on every Saturday'
in the year; . and if they had a lash for every dollar they
have squeezed from the people's scanty earnings, their
backs would be as raw as their sense of propriety.
SPAIN AND THE „UNITED STATES.
Conduct of Spain During our Civil War
—ltuportnnt Revelations.
The N. Y. Times oars
A etatement made not long 8110 . 1 by Mr. 11. .1: Perry.
e
Our Scretary of Legation in Splint, to the effect that the
fi,rt eroment of Spain had resol‘eil, at one period of our
civil war, to commence war against the 'United State:,
tine csoited a gooddeal of attention mid curiosity.
. FreMinformation that hae since relleileti 11S, we are in
clined to believe the statement well founded. The de
termination of.iipain wag brought about by the Intrhimes
of the Emperor of the French, and was based on a com
plaint that our Government had been guilty of a viola
tion of neutral rights. The 9th of. October, 1553, was
fixed upon as the day for commencing hostilities, orders
to that effect having already been sent out by the Span-
WI Government. That through the active efforts of libe
ral Spaniards, devoted friends of our cause as identical
with their own, counter orders were sent out by the
steamer from Cadiz of September 15,1663, and the whole
affair was suppressed.
In the present condition of Spaniel' Wince it would be
highly imprudent to disclose the names of the persons
who rendered us this service. They are all now, since
the revolution, prominent public men, and their poid
t bine and influence would be seriously compromised by
a premature disclosure of their agency in this transae
,tion. But the time will probably come before long when
their names I'oll be made known and we can
,award
them the acknowledmnimta their friendly ,ervices do

As for the colored servitors, they are as atten

He exhibits, on a huge yellow hand, a
finger-nail like a large purple grape; the crowd
is much interested in this piece, of: evidence,
and the mulatto Samson is intensely- proud
of it, He walks slowly off, with a crowd of
readily-found adherents, to whom he shows
the bursting finger front time to time as a rare
and precious treasure.
THE PAVE
The birds of passage are flown. The sena
tors and representatives are, away, and their
splendid female camp-follqwers are gone too.
Even Miss Vinnie Ream is on the tip-toe of
flight. She is just ready to go to Italy, and sits
upon her graven images like, Rachel, they be
*ng packed up in boxes and ready for the
camels.
The real Washington comes out, therefore.
The camp has moved, the tents are struck, and
the natural denizens of the soil come up chirp
ing like crickets out of the earth. The pave
ment at eventide is tilled with the tripping
figures of the lady-clerks, many of them, poor
things, going softly about with black drape
ries hanging from their foreheads, and sad
memories of the war in their hearts. The in
dividuality of the city is more pronounced.
The elderly gentlemen wear the ceremonious
pass
sswallow-tail, a little dimgled, like the plu
mage of a bird of pass i ge, or like the , suit
of a waiter in a ondon chop-house.
It is not. the Season for company-inanners.
' The yotmg men, in their immense straw hats,
' decorate the portals of the tobacco-shops.
Occasionally they fling themselves upon horse
back, embrace the animal in their hard knees,
• and gallop thrmigh the duSt dPropos of nothing,
their long course. marked with equestrian
statues hy .Clark II illsjike Anilestones. - Other
'citizens, having left a legit bull Run or An
tietam, are incapacitated fel , riding.- -They sit
' wearily in the pleasant &pares,' with. the
' chirp of birds and the flutter of leaVeS around
them, and the "eternal fountains , babbling in
their ears with their 'endless aspiration and
- continual fall: . . .
The streets, though dusty and not much de
corated, are pleasant with loliage, and the
"distances" are ofcourse Magnifieent. Eu
rope yields no such, ,
spectaele as -the towering
Capitol rising from,its . green billow of leaxes.
Tim ',groups chat • in tbe :•streets, • every • one
knowing the rest, apparently. They stare at
the jelvelers' windowS; they have so' little to
do, it is like the Palais Royal. The sentlinent
of the place is no More puritan than that of
Paris. Street exhibitions, are olerated which
Would not be permitted any - where bet Ween the

PARIS, Tuesday, May 18, 1869.---There„is
sudden lull this morning through the whole
city, and everything seems to have fallen at
once flat and dead, after the unusnal bustle
and . excitement of the past week. The reason
is that according to the terms of the new law
all electoral meetings must cease five days
before the opening of the poll, in order to
give the electors time to "reflect," or "se
receuillir," as it is called Perhaps the less
they "reflect" the better upon a good
deal they, have heard during the last eight
dayS "from socialists, communists and ultra
democrats of a " reddish " type. But the above
disposition of the law is of that childish char
acter which is so essentially French. The go
vernment here is alwayS turning itself into a
Schoolmaster, and treating the people as its
pupils; and by so; loing only exposes itself to
ridicule. Thus one .Opposition journal this
morning asks why the law did not
impose " fasting and prayer" as well
as " reflection " during. the next five
days. Another proposes that the candi
dates should not be allowed to ?how them
selves in . the streets during this solemn in
terval, for fear of disturbing the "reflections"
of their : constituents. And one would really
think that the Minister of the Interior was of
the latter opinion, for'he has just addressed a
circular, so solemn that it reads like a sermon,
to all the Prefects, recommending that for the
present they should prohibit public
meetings .of every kind, even those
on agriculture, literature, science
or art, lest the speaker should he tempted by
the excitement of the moment to "talk poli
tics," and so interrupt the train of profound
political "reflection" supposed to be going on
in the mind of an elector as to whether he
should vote for Jules FaVte or the, government
candidate. Childish laWs make childish peo
ple; and so long as the iniperial regi»eattemPts
to.drill.the. nation in this fashion, so long will
it find the people ready to break out like mis
chieYous school-boys, as soon as ever the re
strietionS which fetter them are removed.
There have been more disturbances (hiring
the last three or four days in those quartets of
the city where electoral meetings were being
held. But lam convinced that th&T`i Matters
are often provoked, or at least.made woes 4,, by
the injudicious interference of the authorities.

.The most remarkable, and at the same time

tionS, not . ' only at Paris, but

from the most extreme ... ultra democrat up to
the tio-s-parti,and even to the very vergeof the
government party itself, the 'demand. Made
upon Napoleon is to part . With a
large portion Of his power. An
old and well-known' democrat, a Man who has
been tined and imprisoned for,.his opinions
again `and again, M. Vacherot, writes to the
Slid e, asking: "What is the 'great question of
the day ?. Personal sqvereit,mty against the
sovereignty of Use nation !" Let us, he . isayS,
forget everythingbut this: "First, let us make
an etutof the pertabal soveieignty." And he
invites all his lellew-democritts .to unite in
voting o for - the Viers-park, or moderate
liberals, or 'zany One" who ; will help to

in his, address, says justthe same
thing: The sovereign, he says, "must"
resign himself to this; he "must". conform to
the - will of the nation, and be satisfied to carry
out that, and "not his own.." There is the
same Plain speaking out every Where ; , and
Napoleon must either yield to this feeling and
part with his power, or else he must be pre
pared to, maintain it by the votes of the
peasantry, obtained by bribing and ` the in-
fluence of the local administrations—and by
the army, But the former, though they can
be got to vote ' can be relied On for nothing
else: And as to the latter, we all • reinember
