POSTSCRIPT.
Tougher than Bull.Beef.

The following tough story comes from Kansas;
Sixty yoke of red bulls, says the Frontier
News, were seen last week by an old lady in
Kansas, hitched to an empty wagon, which
was nlired in the streets of this city. The team
reached entirely from hill to hill, across one OF
our valleys vulgarly called CUTS. The wagon,
being very tight in the mud, refused to move;
the consequence was, when that portion of the
team in the lead over on the other mill, spread
themselves in a strong pull, and strai ghtened
the chains, that p yoke of the bulls in the
centre were suspended in mid-air by their
necks, something less than so feet above the
ground.
