that was their purpose when they deposited their
votes in the ballot box.

The Journal has also another purpose in view
in It's new kink Ii encourages and gives life to
the rebellion by advertising to the South that
majority of the people of Indiana are traitors to

NEW ORLEANS.

Persons familiar with the topography of
New Orleans, as we are, will readily under.
stand why Gen. Lowell fell back when the
Lincoln gunboats passed the Forts. 1t was
the only sensible thing he could do. When
the gunboats cast anchor opposite Canal
street the city was completely in their pow

could not have rescued it from them, except
in ruins. The only protection the army
could give to the city would be il assaiied IN
the rear-trom Lake Pontchartrain, or the
direction Of the Mexican Gulf Rlilrold. Il
would be no use to plant batteries on the
Levee (the open space between the buildings
aud the riyer,) to oppose vessels that had
successfully passed Forts Jackson and ST.
Phillip, or 10 post an army ia line Of battle,
for the gunboats would she'll the city aud ig
mite it in flames. without losing man, per-

knew, hence he seemed not 10 oppose the
advent of the Yankees. What was wanting
to defend New Orleans. besides the Forts.
was iron-clad vessels of sufficient strength
and power. These had not been provided.
