BIOGRAPHY OF CAPTAIN RYNDERs.-The notorle-

cracy, greatly increased by recent events, has
given rise to an inquiry after his birth, life and
adventures. 1t appears that the gallant Captain is
a native of this State, having been born sonle-
where in Saratoga county--that he received the
first rudiments of his education on board North
River soope and steamers, in which he served as
hand, and that he is in fact in every sense of the
phrase, Hudson River boy. His life has been
full OF romantic adventures in all quarters of the
world. He is now about forty years Of age-dark
complexioH-a little over the middle height-and
with an iron frame and constitution. We expect
