Fortress Monroe, Nov. 28.—Some days since the captured pirate Florida, whilst lying off Fortress Monroe, was accidentally run into by an army transport, with troops on board, cutting her on one side almost to the water’s edge and carrying away the.jib-boom, Xc., causing her to leak badly. Admiral Porter or- dered her to be anchored off Newport News, at the mouth of the James river, where she sunk during last night, the officers and crew in charge of her not being able to keep her free.

ANOTHER MyYsTERY.—The body of an un- known man was found in a corn stack, ona farm near Freehold, N. J., a day or two since, under circumstances which showed that a shocking murder had been committed. The skull had been fractured in two places, a gash an inch and a half in length cut in the left check, and an instrument had been thrust down the throat, nearly severing the tongue. A severe blow had also evidently been inflicted upon the chin, crushing it, and caushing it to turn black. Fifteen wounds in all had been inflicted upon the body of the man. A coro- ner’s inquest was held, but no additional light ‘was thrown upon the matter. Governor Par- Ker, of New Jersey, has offered a reward of three hundred dollars for the apprehension and conviction of the criminals.

A Coon UNDER THE CRINOLINE —We wit- nersed an amusing incidenton one of our su- Durban streets, last Saturday. A fashionable young lady, gotupin the higheststyle of the milliners’ art, and arrayed tn all the glory of five-dollar-a-yard sil, atwenty dollar bonnet, and a three hundred dollar shawl, was majes- tically sweeping along in the direction of the Fair Ground, while, just behind, a little boy was leading a pet coon. “ A countryman ina brown slouched hat and & lineey wooleey ‘*warmas,” came along fol- lowed by a yallah dog, whose nose was scarred diagonally, transversely and laterally with the scars of many a/fiercely contested battle With members of the raccoon family. “Tige’” no sooner saw the ring-tailed representative of his ancient enemy, that he made a frantic dive for him, accompanied by a farious bark. Cooney comprehended the situation at & giance. bolted incontinental, and songht 2 sanctuary beneath the ample circumference of the young ladies crinoline. The young lady screamed, while the dog made rapid circles, snuffing the air and evidentally bewildered to know what had become of the coon. The situation of the young Indy was critical and embarrassing. She was afarid to move for fear the coon would bite, and the coon declined to leave bis retreat until the dog had retired. Finally the dog was stoned off, the boy dragged the coon from his hiding place, and the yousg lady went her way with the lively conscious- ness of having experienced a newsensation. As for the coon he was instantly killed — Indianapolis Journal. THE NEw York ConsprrRaTors—Messrs. Ed itors. A few weeks since I was in New York and from what I learned, saw enough to satis- fy me that some infernal plot was brewing for & general mob, insurrection or incendiary plan to burn the city. Many of the leading Uopper- heads said they would not submit to Lincoln's administration and in case he was elected “we should see the deyil topay”—that “they would let their property go in the general conflagra- tion.” Timmediately notified the authorities at Washington of what I had heard. From wheat I heard and saw previous to the election, Iam satisfied that General Butler's presence checked these diabolical plans. M.SwkETSER.
