DRAWING THE Lone Bow.-We have bee

DRAWING THE LONG Bow.--We have been
considerably amused at the various accounts
of the raid on New burg, published in the
different papers of the country. The Gin
cinnati papers contained highly colored ac-
counts of the foray, and with commendable
geographical knowledge located the town of
Newburg twenty-five miles below Evans
Vile. The Indianapolis papers also had
some mistakes of an amusing character to
persons in this vicinity, had the subject in
which they Numbered have not been of so
serious character. But the following para
graph, which we 6nd in the Lafayette Cou-
rieE. of Saturday last, rather excels any
thing we have yet seen:
/" We have later and reliable intelligence
from indianapolis to-day that the raid on
Newb0rg was planned and carried into ex-
ecution by our citizens in Warrick county,
with the active aid and cooperation of
Kentucky rebels. Col. Foster, of Evans
VILE home on furlough, Immediately re-
paired TO Newburg with a posse OF armed
citizsn as and sinking the ferry boats, took
possession of the town without opposition.

F.C IONTEMPTlBLE.-Ine New Albany Ledger
~sher Democratic papers complacently
sFh ssgient on the recent riots that disgraced
i,arv me 10 and Cncianat,as the result ofaboli-
aism, {" and the Oeginning,' as the Rock
port Democrat sagely adds, of the g ire
pressible conflict" The Ledger, while pre-
tending fairness in its criticisms of men
and measures, never fails to overlook the
shortcomings of its political friends, while
lit misconstrues and distorts the action of
its political opponents. We have never
seen in that paper word of praise of any
officer who formerly acted with the Repub-
lican party for anything he did, nor word
in. condemnation Of any officer who was
labelled Democratic. Perhaps Gen. Hun
ter is an exception, but the Ledger and 9TH
er Democratic papers denounced him under
the impression that be was Republican,
In other words, the partisan in those pa
pers is too great for their patriotism.
Their criticisms in the cases Of the riots
referred to, deveiopes the strength of their
partizanship to remarkable degree. We

more competition between the Irish and
negro aborerS in Cincinnati and Toledo
now, than there was prior to the war. The
negroes are not so numerous in those cities
now as they were then. Large numbers of
them are connected with the army in the
capacity of cooks and servants. The true
history If the Cincinnati riot is this A
band of Irish laberers, finding that hands
were scarce, on account of the numbers who
had enlisted in the Government service,
thought it "a good time TO strike for higher
scages, and make what they could out of
the troubles of the country. The negroes
were content to work for the wages as they
had been, and hence. as matter of course,
obtained the situations For this they were

In New York City the Irish labOrers

ANOTHER GUERRILLA RAID
INDIANA AGAIN INVADED |

We learn from passenger by the 1875
train on the Cincinnati railroad last night,
that three companies of guerrilla cavalry
had crossed the Ohio river from Kentucky,
into Indiana, at Aurora. The damage done
at that place, if any, was not ascertained at
Lawrenceburg. The people of the latter
place were in a state of the greatest alarm.
Aurora is only about TWENTY-FIVE miles be-
low Cincinnati Indianapolis Journal.
As the Cincinnati papers and the tele-
graph are silent on the subject, we are coai-
dent it is silly canard.

BS~ The news of the guerrilla raid on
Newsurg reached Lafayett on Sunday
morning last and was announced in the
churches. In the afternoon public meet
ing vas held, and over zoo men volunteered
to assist in driving them from our borders.
They started on Monday, and were uni
formed at Indianapolis, and arrived here,
accompanied by their arms on Tuesday
morning, and left for the seat of war before
noon. They are men of the right spirit.

[From the Indianapolis jon nal ]

D. w. Voorhees, is trying to get the
rublic TO regard him as the embodiment of
the anti-tax feeling He has despaired of
making a reputation, and is devotiug him
self TO the acquisition of notoriety. Like
Sir Frrsiul Piagiary, he would rather be
abused than not talked about at all. He
has not ability enough to be noticed in the
thick ranks of loyal men, so, to be sure that
he will be noticed he steps out and stands
by himself. A toadstool will be seen if
there is nothing else bigger near it. Daniel
understands this we'll enough to want to be
pretty much alone in such glory as he can
get The notoriety of an opposition to the
means of carrying on the war is not an en-
viable one. II is practic ] though equivo-
cal treason. 1t is striking a blow rs surely,
though not so directly, at the heart of the
Government, as an armed rebel could do it.
Daniel crowds into this uncoveted place
not, we really believe, because be is at
heart disloyal, but because he has no hope of
being talked about if he don't He has
some chan e there. Few rivals will jostle
him. The dim flicker of his talowy intel
lect will not be paled by the glare of some
body's brighter brains. If the public looks
in that direction at all they must see him.
There is such happy conformity to {" the
eternal fitness of things" in his being the
representative of the anti-tax sentiment,
that we hope be may get where he wants
to. He is peculiarly fitted for the position.
he has been qualifying himself for it for
twelve years. Read the following list of
his failures to pay taxes, and see if any
body else in the State could so consistently
and ftly oppose taxes:

VOORHEES,,

So, since 1851, Daniel W Voorhees, has
not paid has ta1es For eEeven gears he has
kept the State or county out of bis share of
its burthen. He has bad its protection and
| refused to pay. For nearly the whole time
since he has had vote, has this spouter of
denunciation upon those " no have swim
died the Government been withholding
from the Government what he justly owed
it. Look at the list. Not one solitary year
on the long roll contains pay mark Read
1t over carefully. There is not break in
the rank of delinquencies. Not one. 1t is
all black, black, black. A single tax re-
eeipt would blaze in its darkness like a
light house. Count the years: Fiftv-oue
fifty-two, ffty-three, fifty four, fifty-tive,
fifty -six-how regularly the numbers fall in
behind each osher-ffty- seven, ffty-eight,
hfty-nine, sixty; il tires one to count it. it
is SO long; sixty-one, the very last year on
the tax duplicate, aud e0ery one deEinouentF
What a record of shame! How elooaentIy
these dull figures speak in their unonoto-
nous regularity One unbroken career of
delinquency, of failure to give the Govern
ment support for its protection And this
man lectures people about taxation, and
the oppression to those who pay It'll But
how can it hurt him ? Did he ever see a
tax receipt? Does he know what a tax du-
plicate is? Has he any idea of a County
Treasurer's office. except from a nominal
ton for it 2 Taxes, indeed Taxes are
a myth to him. He might discourse with
some propriety about the dew in the moon,
or tides in the melted middle of the earth,
but taxes are a topic that he must leave to
those who have had some experience with
them. When be pays taxes fully and
faithfully for as many years as he has been
delinquent, we will concede him the right
to talk. Till then we say to Daniel, pay
up or dry up.
