THE CINCINNATI MOB.

Organ OF Northeastern Ohio
THE CINCINNATI MOE
It has been remarked with great truth,
that q behind the actors of mob, there
are designing persons who themselves
stand back and see others do the dirty
work they had planned. Allsuch out
breaks against the peace, order and har-
mony of society, are the result Of some
leading scoundrel mind or minds, who
have designs the mob themselves do not
comprehend. Such is doubtless the
fact in the present Cincinnati disturb
ance. That traitors exist in that ber-
der city, there can be no doubt, and
their only hope of savage revenge for
disappointed success in their hellish
schemes OF disunion, is to ferment and
set ton foot a mob to lay waste and des-
troy the cities. Like Nero, these trait
ors could fiddle and dance, while the
city was in flames. The classes4to be
acted upon by these rebel misereants,
who, no doubt, profess feaity and deyo-
tioa TO the Government, are the ignor-
iant fofesgHers, who, taught to- follow
leaders IN the Old World, do notrealize
I theifsneW relations in the New World
Their jeaiousies must be excited gainst
another unfortunate class, lest their Ia
Dor conflicts. This is the unh;llowed
excuse. If the people and authorities
tof Cincinnati pass it over without bring
ing to justice the leaders, it will not be
long before other cities Will experience
like raids and disturbances, threa tening,
not only the peace of the city, but the
destruction of large amounts of prop
ertys ltis.not to be supposed that all
tthe traitors in the United States are
South of Mason and Dizon,s Line-far
fremlt. They exist scattered all through
the North, and are to be carefully
watched. But their humber is creates
in our large cities, where many reside
who have pecuniary interests in the
South. These disguised traitors in the
North may lay some of our great cities
IN ashes before this rebellioni is crushed
1T stands the loyal people in hand to be
On their guard and suppress at once
every outbreak of mobocracy.

Training Colts.

Lambart Maynard, owner Of ''Trott-
ing Childers, who has had much ex-
perience in raising and training colts,
states that "his colts are all broken to
the harness before they are IA year old,
or as he more properly expressed it,
educated. He rarely, if ever. uses a
whip. AS to its sinjuring them to use
them So young, he remarks that he
never exercises them SO hard as they
exercise themselves when alone

LIFE.

Like the falling of a star,
Or as the fight of eagles are;
Like the fresh Springs gaudy hne,
Or silver drops of morning dew;
Like wind that chafes the flood,
Or bubbles which ON water stood
Fen such is man; whose borrowed light,
Is stright called in, and paid at night.
The wind blows out the bubble dies,
The Spring entombed in Autumn lies;
The dews dried up, the star is shot,
The flight is passed-and man forgot. q

This paper was claimed as a deed OF
gift OF these very valuable weapons by
the young woman named, but as she had
neglected to inform her father of this
singular donation causa tugB, end as the
girls mother caused them to be given
to negro to be sent back to Gen
Twigg's house, l ventured to interfere
with this testamentary disposition.
A more lamentable instance of the
degradation to which this rebellion has
reduced its yotaries can hardly be- i'm
agined. Swords given to General for
courage and good conduct in the armies
of the Union, tokens of admiration by
his fellow citizens and the gratitude of
ia State and nation, voluntarily be-
dusathed for safe keeping to woman,
as more proper custodian than HIM
self, by that same General, when flying
lat the approach Of the armies of that
country, which he had renounced and
betrayed at last find depository with
"a negro;Jof the sake Of enslaciay ,ohose
race the double crime Of treachery and

Now that the weapon given by the
United States is returned to the Exeeu-
tive, and the others placed at his dis
posal, might. [ take leave to suggest a
proper disposition Of them?
Might not the first be presented to
some officer, as token of appreciation
ipf.ieyalty and devotion to thessoslnttr!gss Y {
The qualities of courage aud good con.
duct in the battlefield have never beer
found wanting in our armies; but loyalty
and entire devotion to the country have
failed in SO many examples, Of which
Gen. Twiggs is a shining one, that to-
kens Of respect for those qualities, be.
slowed in this manner, might not be in
appropriate.
| The sword from the State of Georgia
might be deposited in the library a
West Point with an appropriate inscrip-
| ton, as perpetual memento to the
youth there, how worse than useless are
all education and military training, even
when allied to gailantry and courage, i
heartfelt patriotism and undyihg faalty
to the Constitution and the Flag are
wanting.
That given by the city Of Augusta
might be deposited in the Patent Office
as warning against the folly and use
