4 friend Of ours, who WAS attending court at
A1edo, Mercer Co, last week, when the war
news arrived, las given Us the following &C
count Of the action Of the people there Assem-
b!ed. After discussing matters short time,
attention was directed to the poles, still stand
ing upon oppoHlt sldes:.of the square, ,from~hlch
the flags Of the two opposing parties had noat-
ed In the last canvass. Implements were at
once In req1isition; the earth was soon re-
moved from the foot of the Republican pole,
and 1t was carefully lowered. The Democrat
fc pole was then subjected to the same treat
ment. The two poles we're then cut in pieces.
These were spliced alternately upon each 9th
er; new hole was dug, and the stars and
stripes were floating gloriously from this
"Union'' flag staff. The entire crowd made
the welkin ring with the Star spangled Ban
ner," and the widest enthusiasm prevailed,
The came gentlemen was at Geneseo at a
mass meeting in which people and parsons;
lawyers and doctors-eyerybody united. One
Of the parsors gave this rendering to the old
story Of fssmad Anthony" Wayne: When asked
by Gen. Washington whether he could take
Stony Point, he replied, "Do you, General, plan
the attack and we can take hell itselfn That
said the parson, is the way we should all feel
In this crisis. The comparison between tht
kingdom Of Dahomey aud thst warm country
