A Row.-Another OF those sickening and
disgusting exhibitions of lawlessness where
men resist civic authority, and endeavor to
mob officers while arresting disorderly per-
son, occurred on yesterday on Third street.
Officer Golfer attempted to arrest an Irish
man named Tierney for fighting, when three
or four others pitched into him, and endeav-
ored to rescue him. Officer G. being weak
from recent illness was for moment over
come. His cane was wrenchcd away from
him, and his neck tie torn off. But he recov
cred his baton, and secured his prisoner again.
The crowds of Irish increased, and with
clubs and picks. from the gas ditch near by,
threatened to prevent officer G. from taking
his prisoner off. Two or three citizens rush
ed in with some documents" however, and
officers Brisett and flasher appeared on the
ground. The prisoner was secured on dray
and taken to the Watch House. Such out
rageous interference on the part Of mobs is
becoming too common. Let the officers face
such rabbles with determination, and if ne
cessary, not hesitate to use such means as are
within their reacn to enforce order.

REPORTED EXPRESSLY FOR THE JOURNAL

VINcENNEs, Jan. 3.
There is great excitement in this city, oc-
casohed by a Mrs. Crawford of Cleveland,
Ohio, claiming her three children placed in
the Catholic Orphan Asylums here, by her
husband The woman visited the Asylum,
and requested leave to take her children
away. This was refused by the nuns when
she clutched up one of her children and fed
with it in her arms. She was pursued by the
nuns and others, and scuffle ensusd in the
streets, the mother fighting desperately for
her child. Some of the citizens interfered
on behalf Of the mother, and she took the
child away.
The matter is now in Court on writ Of
habeas corpus The excitement runs high.
The sympathy of the populace seems to be
with the mother, and should the Court give
the child back to the nuns a serious nisturb-
ance seems inevitable.
LOUISVILLE, Jan. 3, 7PM
1t turned very cold last night. Ice making
all day. No arrivals. Departed, several
Southern boats, started light for fear of freez-
ing up, probably they will not get far.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 8.
The Circuit Court of the United States for
the District of Columbia, this morning gov
erned by the decision of the Supreme Court
refused the prayer of Richard w. Thompson
for writ Of mandamus to be directed to the
Secretary of the Treasury commanding him
to comply with the act of Congress appropriat-
ing $40.50O for services rendered by Thompson
to the Menomenee Indians.
Mr.. Thompson in his memorial charges that
Mr.. Guthrie caused the case to be referred to
the Attorney General on certain questions
which did not constitutionally or legitimately
enter into it, as Mr. Guthrie by the direction
of the President informed Mr.. Thompson that
the money cannot be paid without the consent
of the Menomenees freely given, and that the
law of Congress was not in compliance with
the memorials Of those Indians.
The report that General Cass is to be Sec
retary of State under the incoming Admins
tration is untrue. It's reported from excel
ent authority that he has been offered the 20.
sition and declined accepting it.

RIVER IN rELLEGENCE.

The RIvER.-The running ice was very
heavy in the river yesterday morning, and a
gorge was threatened in several places above
and below the city, but fortunately the large
cakes did not stick, and during the morning
the w. A. Eaves came down with a full cargo
from Green River, and the John Warner came
up from New Orleans. She will load here
and return.
OF The w. II. Denny also arrived from
New Orleans, bound for Cincinnati and Pitts
burg. She will remain here till there is a
change in the ice above, or load here and re-
turn.
TThe steamer Antelope passed up Sat.
urday. We are under obligations to Mr. Bull
ER of the Office for New Orleans papers.
OTThe U. S. Mail came up Saturday from
st. Lous and returned as the ice was forming
in such quantities as to render navigation
dangerous.
OF On Friday. there was steady rain
during the whole day. The gorge at Twelve
Mile Island moved down a mile and halt
carrying the steamers with it, except the
North Star which was crowded out on to the
shore ice. The Gen. Pike lies we'll; the Su-
perior is in dangerous position. The gorge
is twelve feet thick and extends four miles in
length, with ice rapidly accumulating at the
head. The steamer Memphis is at Utica

CINCINNATI HOG MARKET ON FRIDAY.-In
hogs and provisions the market was very
buoyant on Friday and prices presented a
strong upward tendency. Sales Of Shoulders
and Sides in bulk, to the extent of about q
million pounds, were made on Thursday and
Friday, but though only small portion was
permitted to transpire, yet we learn the price
was 6H for Shoulders and SC for Sides.
Lard was also actively sought after at very
full rates. Mess pork was held firmly at SIT,
with plenty of buyers Of city brands at
SIG IS. Hogs sold at Sc 80@$7, with a
good demand, and not many in the market.

Mr.. w. D. GRIswoLD, the President has man
aged the affairs of the road with praisworthy
carefulness, and we have no doubt but the stock
will be yielding a handsome premium before
many years. The trains arrive and depart
with great regularity, and it is a fact worthy
of no6ce that not one serious accident has oc-
cured since its commencement.
