- Ills Head is E.cyCl.S

While passing stable yard yesterday, in the
upper portion of the city, our attention was
attracted for a few moments to two old colored
men who We're trying to hitch a mule to little
wagon. The mule was very obstreperous-he
had his dander up about something, and he put
in serious protest against the whole proceeding.
he reared and pitched and threw his hind feet
about remarkably active, damaging the wagon,
and several times threatening to knock off the
heads OF the two darkeys, who were lammng
away at his muleship with long pole. The two
negroes labored hard but without avail. The
animal had not been worked for some time, and
he felt his oats, and was not to be trihed with
After three or four Intellectual attempts were
made to get the mule between the shafts, the
colorcd gentleman with the hoop pole had his
passion aroused, and commenced larruping the
animal in good earnest. The mule accepted the
issue made, upset the colored gentleman who
was tickling him with the hoop and, taking
French leave, his muleship dashed down the
street in great glee over what he had accom-
plished
The old darkey who got knocked down, with
the aid of n comrade, slowly got to his feet
again. He gave glance at the retreating mule,
and slowly shaking his kead he remarked:
"Petc dat ar mule is like some niggers.
You let en- have liberty for time, and dey
won't do nufin-but try to vote. I bet dat mule
is gwinc down to dc place where dey register
now" -f..4...,.- ava
We didn't wait to hear anything more, but
concluded that that old darkey's head was level.

PUT OFF THE CMts Jeremiah S.
Morrill,, Esq, a gentleman past sixty
years of age, was put off the passen-
ger train at Alburgh Springs, week
before last, under the following cir
cumstances: On the 20th day Of June
Mr.. Morrill, purchased ticket in New
York for Ogdensburgh, n. Y, with
coupons attached for each road. At
ter leaving the depot at st. Adams,
the conductor asked for his ticket and
tore off the coupon which entitled him
to a ride over the Vt & Canada II. r.
Mr.. Nj. said he did not wish to have
that done as he expected to stop over
at Swanton, and wished to hold his
ticket. The conductor then said he
would give him aticket which would
be as well for him. He therefore gave
him a ticket upon which was prin ted,
good for six days only which Mr. NJ
did not notice when given to him, and
there was no date on the ticket. ---
When he got upon the train lie ex-
hibited this ticket lin payment of his
passage. The conductor said he had
had instructions not to take such tick
cts, and unless he paid his fare he
should be obligel'to put him off the
train. MIR. M. refusing, when the
train reached the station, five men ap-
preached him, and, by force, elected
him from the train. Our informant
says that the question will probably
be settled by the courts.
