rhe Clncinnat Mayor.

Mr.. Snellbaker, the newly elected Mayor
of Cincinnati, seems to have offended the
good people of that city in very high de-
gree.
II appears from the different accounts Civ
en- of the Mayors conduct, including his own
statement, that he has not only usurped and
exercised power. which in no wise apper-
tains to HE Official station. and unrarranted
by laO, but has grossly abused that with
which he has been officially clothed. The
offence alleged against Mayor Snellbaker,
by the press and by the citizens generally, is,
that he interfered to prevent, and did prevent
by the aid of the police, an American citizen,
an educated, excellent gentleman, end q
pious minister Of the Gospel, from address
ing his fellow.citizens, in quiet unobtrusive
manner, on the public street, last Sabbath
morning.
The custom of speaking in the public
streets, on any subject, whether religious.
political or otherwise, has long since received
the sanction of universal custom, and any
innovation of the right to do SO, is a tyranni-
cal assumption Of power, which no law Of
the land confers upon any officer. Freedom
of speech" is to dear boon to the American
heart to admit of any abridgement, much les'
prohibition. II appears that the Rev. mr.
Kirkland met his friends and the public on
that occasion, by appointment, and proposed
to discuss, what he deemed "the errors Of the
Catholic religion" and proceeded to do sc
without excitement, or evincing any malice
toward that sect. That he had the undoubt
ed right to discuss Catholicism, Protestant
ism, or any other subject SO long as he dit
not disturb the peace, offend the laws o
the land or of common decency, is a ques
ton already settled, not only by our consti
tuition and laws, but by the spirit of enlight
ened republic nsm-the sole basis Of on
free and liberal institutions. IfMayor Smell
baker acted conscienciously in driving Mr.
Kirkland from his position, under the circam
stances. his ignorance of his official dutie
is only equalled by the grossness Of the put
rage. If he silenced the reverend gentle
man, understanding kis duties as mayor, hi
conceptions of human rights and their gus
rantes are too narrow to preside in any capu
city over the destinies of American citizens
Such conduct, if persisted in, whether view
ed h.--n--A-..---xa-->>-< -sz-f-hsitev
-sne former hold the "right of spesch'' as 50
cred as the latter, will consign Mr.. SnelIbak
erso darker and more merted disgrace thai
he now enjoysin the estimation of his fellow
citizens.

ENGLAND AND AUsrRALrA.-The English
papers 'egret the democratic feeling which is
steadily growing up in the colony Of Austria
liza. The troops are insulted, and have little
or no inflssnce in the preservation of order.
Everything done by the government seemed
to be unpopular. The people at large were
impatient at being trammeled by laws impos-
e. by authorities 10000 miles off; and it is

pvrtra'ts2f Her Majesty were almost unsale-
aoie. In. soIdi-rs, too, are beginning to de-
sert from the 10Th regiment. in Australia, and
are on othe d,sgings. Upwards of twenty
are gone. tso Pc head is offered for their
apprehe nsion.
