SHOCKING AFFAIR ON FIFTH STREET LAST
NIGHT.-CoLD BLoODED MURDER.-About
half past ten o'clock last night, steamboat
man named Wonell became engaged in q
quarrel with VIM. Hynes near the corner of
Fifth street and Franklin avenue. Hynes,
who was accompanied by a number of his
friends, drew large Ratchet sheath-knife,
and made thrust at Wonell without seri-
GUS effect, whereupon the latter fled in the
direction of the Mel0deon beer and concert
garden, between Morgan street and Frank
lin avenue, and rushing into the saloon to
save himself from his pursuer, took posi-
ton in crowd of men who were standing
some distance up the aisle. Some moments
after, whilst the attention of the audience
we're absorbed by some scene on the stage,
Ilynes approached the fugitive through the
listening crowd, and after engaging his at
teution with few remarks relative TO the
quarrel, again drew his knife, which was
very broad and about eight inches long,
and coolly plunged it into the side of his
victim, the entire length of the blade, and
drawing it rs coolly forth again from the
fatal wound, sheathed it and replaced it in
his side pocket. Those who were near
enough to be spectators of the butcherly,
inhuman and deviIish transaction, were
amazed and Mortified beyond expression, at
the cool deliberation and nonchalance of
the murderer in committing the deed. Won
ell on receiving the stab fell back into a
seat, and almost Immediately expired. He
is from Louisville, Kentucky, and follows
the river.
Hynes was Immediately taken into Gus
iody by policeman Dempsey, who took him
to the calaboose ut the central police sta
tom Missouri Democrat Noe. %.

BGP The misunderstanding Courier of

young Carroll, late editor of the Bardstown
(Ky.) Gazette, who was in the rebel
ranks at the battle of Leesburg, Va. He
was attached to the Sixteenth Mississippi
regiment. A letter-writer at Centreville,
town, was also in the same fight, and that
+" he won immortal glory" This young
man is brother of our fellow townsman,
Blythe Hynes, Esq, and it is a singular CO.
incidence that another brother was Lieu
tenant in the California Regiment, portion
of which was engaged in the battle of Lees
burg. Thus does this unhappy war array
brother against brother.

Preparations for the s'ISOrward Move.
menG'' Down the REIssIssipps.


menG'' Down the RzIssissippS.
We learn that Generals Grant ard Nc
Clernand are now vigorously at work, at
Cairo, getting ready for the important ex-
petition down the river. They are IN early
and late, and straining every nerve in for
warding tho work of preparation
The expedition is rapidly organizing. 1t
will consist of fleet of eleven gunboats
mounting over hundred heavy guns, thir-
ty-eight floating batteries of Ga columbi-
sd each, and twenty eight river steamers.
There are already one hundred and sixty
four pieces of cannon at Cairo, none of
which are less than thirty-twO Founders,
and over a hundred tons of ammunition
have arrived, and more is still arriving.
The military part of the expedition, will
it is believed, be under the general COM
mand of Major General Halleck, who is
now organizing his grand army at st. Louis,
which will be Joined by the columns under
Gen. Grant at Cairo, and that of General
Smith, at Paducah.
The naval part Of the expedition will be
under the command of Commodore Foote,
who is now experimenting the construction
and armament of the new gunboats. There
will probably be between 5000 and IOO,-
900 men, in the expedition.
We know nothing as to the exact time
when the expedition will start, nor as to its
destination-nor would it be proper to state
these facts; and we publish the above facts
only because they are generally known to all
the people I'm and around Cairo, and no con-
cealment is apparently attempted to be
made.

apologies, the restoration of the four men
taken from the Chesapeake, all of which
the British government was ready enough
to grant Except as to the man who had
been hanged); but it was attempted to con-
meet the reparation for this attack with the
standing claims of the American govern
ment on the subject of impressments; it
being insisted that, by way of security for
the future, the visitation of American YES
sells in search of British subjects should be
totally lelinquished.
Thus il is seen that our Government re-
fused what would have been satisfactory
settlement of this difficulty, hoping, by
using that circumstance, to compel relin-
quishment of the doctrine that English YES
sells had right to search American ships
for British subjects. 1t can hardly be urged
that our government only objected to the
abuses of a right they acknowledged, be-
cause almost every historical fact goes to
show that these abuses were used by our
government as arguments against the val
idity of the right itself.
We do not think the distinction between
searching in time of war and doing the
same in time of peace, was preached during
the heated discussions at that time. The
doctrine was, American vessels must be let
alone. In fact there was no peace at the
time. 1t was all war. President Jefferson,
in his message to the 10th Congress, refers
TO dispatches received from Europe as
showing the great and increased dangers
with which our vessels, our seamen, and
our merchandise were threatened on the
high seas and elsewhere from the BelIige-
rent powers of Europe"
Our space will not permit US, to-day, to
allude to the fact that our government has
refused to acknowledge the Oonfederates as
belIigerents, though we may refer to ii
again.
