We take from Northern paper the following &C.
count Of the lynching of an editor in Massachu-
sets, already reported by telegraph:
MIR. Kimball was loudly called for, who, not an
y pearing, the crowd entered his house and seized
him. He drew revolver, which was the signal
for the presentation of half dozen by his Can
tors, pointing to his person, which led to quick
surrender, and he was conducted down Main street
n front Of the Eagle House and placed within a
circle, when he was asked if he regretted what lie
had published, to which he made no reply.
He was then asked to lay OF his clothing when
he made request to see Mr.. Brown, Of the Eagle
House. ny; Brown appeared, and in the inter.
believe that he would be released By making due
aeknowled gment of his offence and promising NOT
to further outrage the sentiment of the community
ms ne deemed to do, and being requested to re-
move his clothes, he did SO, placing them with his
watch, in charge of Mr.. Brown.
After removing every article Of clothing but his
drawers. ne was completely covered with coat Of
tar and feathers, after which, being mounted ON n
ran or pole was conveyed to Merrimae street. in
front OF the office of the Democrat, and directly
under the American flag, behind which, as with 4
masked battery he had bombarded the Gov
eminent of his country, in the publication of the
speeches of Vallandigham and Brecknrid De- wb;ls
~ editorials Of much violence he has Advocated
and defended the cause of the Rebels -
he was required to cheer the flag, which he did;
after which the crowd moved in the direction off
Bradford. On arriving at the bridge he was al
lowed to dismount and walk through it, when he
again mounted the rail and was carried to the resi-
dence Of George johnson, Esq, who was called
out but the nature Of the exercises there we were
unable to learn. 49,
Returning to town, q halt was made in front Of
the Eagle House, when the question was again sub.
nlitted II he regretted his Conduct to which he r.
plled n the affirmative, When by request, Ihe knelt
down. and raising his hand, repeated In substance
the following confession and affirmation: /. am

mise that1 will again write or publish articles

is generally called the battle of Bull
Run. This may be known as the
second Of the same name. The main
fighting was. however, at some dis
tance both from the Run and the
Stone Bridge, after which latter some
have proposed to name the battle
Some have suggested the "Battle Of
Manassas" as the name, but that point
was stil farther distant. For want
Of a better designation. and as Bull
Run formed the front of battle to
both great lines, apart from those en-
gagged in the fauking movement. we
know no better than to call it the Sec
ond battle Of Bull Run, unless we
shall have an official report which
shall assign it another title.

Army Supplies Takes at Manassas.

Richmond, July 27.-Itis rumored
here to-day that the number of small
arms captured at Manassas, including
FIVE thousand found in boxes in the
captured wagons, is between twenty
and thirty thousand. Ifear, however,
this is an exageration. Every day
adds to the conviction of the complete
ness Of our grand victory, and to the
importance ofits results.
We have captured:
l. Over sixty magnificent rifed
cannon.
2. About 1000 wagons, Of which at
least 500 were loaded.
3. About 1900 horses.
4. Supplies for a full campaign for
$4,000 men.
5. Over 10000 stand of arms.
6. Enormous quantities of KNAPP
sacks, haversacks, pistols, blankets,
belts, baysnsts, accoutcrmcnts and
clothing Of all sorts.
In addition to all this, they have
lost in the killed, wounding. missing
and dcscrfrrs, not less than from fifteen
to twenty thousand men.

"A resolution was, however, made
