Miss Flora McFlimsey, Of Madison Square,

Miss Flora had heard Of noted Professor,
Who dressed his own hair, tho not Hairdresser,
With magical, wonderful, great preparation,
(Now used in vast quantities over the nation.)
This noted Professor was gray as rat

And the amount Of poor hair his crown had upon H.

EXCITEMENT AT CHATHAM A MICRO Boy
TAKEN FROM HIS MASTER IN CANADA.-We
learn from Conductor Il. S. Goodrich, the fol-
lowing particulars of an affair that occurred At
chatham yesterday afternoon A party of
Southerners were on the express train due at
" indsor at b:l5 pm, and one Of them had
mula.to servant, boy of 10 years, along with
him. At London colored man was oberved
in conversation with the boy, while standing
upon the platform. No suspicion was exc ted
by this, however, but when the train reached
G. ATTAIN, where it stops to wood and water, it
was instantly surrounded by tumultuous gath
eflng ct three or four hundred colored people,
evidently laboring under great excitement A
white man. representing himself to be the Sher-
III OF the town, entered the car where the GEN
tieman and his servant sat, folio wed by crowd
OF colored men. One of the latter individuals
asked the boy to come out. He replied that he
would not, and chung to bis master. In the
meantime, those outside were shouting, Bring
him out" &C., and revolvers were freely shown
by the negroes outside as well as in. The boy
was taken out, crying, and borne away by the
crowd. The train then started, and the gen.
tlrman, whose name is w. R. Merwin, and resi-
dsnce st. Louie came on to this city and is now
stopping at the Russell House.
Passengers the train state that no blame
Can be attached to Conductor Goodrich, rs the
crowd was SO large that any effort to repel them
BY the hands upon the train would have been
ens tire folly.-Detrot Adv.
