The following droll affair lately
happened at Kinderhook, New York.
"A young fellow. an enemy to the lib
critics of America. going to quilting

impotence, laid hold OF him. stripped
him to the waist. and instead of tar,
covered him with molasses, and for
feathers took the tiowny tops of flags,
which grow in the meadows, and
covered him well, and then let him

While the general situation remain

which are fully detailed in our news
columns. Gen. Grant has put an
embargo on intelligence from the ar.

The affair at Plymouth has result
ed disastrously, and the Federal
