and unosteniatioua in manner, deep substra-
tum of bad principles and faithlessness lay
below the upper surface OF conventionali,y

intellect than the senile and feeble Jenkins, IL
is in vain that we look for any redeeming
traits in this man. Whatever he did, he did

"Union Car" filled with as many little fe-
male cherubs as there are States in the Union,
all dressed in pure white, each waving til
ny flag, and each as hppy as the 4th of July
itself. In the rear of the open car, sat the
matronly Goddess of Liberty, with her be-
nevolent eye on the glittering list of her
lovely children. As the procession was about
to cross the river, the large Flag carried by
the Goddess of Liberty became entangled in
the Telegraph wires over her head, and was
wrenched from her hand. The banner was
Immediately seized by our friend JOHN
WooDHoUsE, of Randall, and restored to the
smiling goddess, amid the cheers of the

old flag and will protect it against all hp.rsh
usage, accidental as well as designed.
