Kicked by a Mule. --William Graves, an aged pilgrim from Charles City county, was arrested and taken before the Mayor for indulging in a drunken revel. He assured his Honor that he was more crippled than drunk, having been disabled by a kick from a mule, at Rocketts. He had made a start for Powhatan, and would leave the city at once, if permitted to do so. The Mayor read to him the act concerning vagrants and dissolute persons, reminded him of the dangers of the chain gang and a bread and water diet, and let him go.--The accused seemed to be a man of intelligence, and it is hoped he will profit by the admonition.
