Another Raid.

In its resume of news, the Cincinnati
Gazette, Of the 9th inst, has the following
savory paragraph. Is there anything re-
narkable in the fact that the sympathies
of Europe should be enlisted for those who
are thus pursued and hunted with negro
regiments, and their magnificent villas and
mansions torn and defaced, or left in
smouldering ashes, where but short time
since the whole presented scene of do
mestic peace and happiness, and the fra
GRANGE of the jessamine freighted the at
mosphere, and the trembling bloom of the
delicate myrtle filled the eye with delight2 ?
The Gazette gives the groan" of a
true sympathiser with the proposed raid
The lands lying on the Teche are unsur-
passed unless by those ON the La Fourche,
and the improvements are elegant and
commodious. No happier people dwelt
beneath the sun than masters and slaves
none more hospitable than the planters,
and yet this region of peace is to be dis
turbed and laid waste, and men, women,
and children driven from the comforts Of
home, by the iell demon of war, and the
grasping avarice of rapine and robbery.
The Gazette says; .
The Jackson Aissisippian groans over
Buffers operations at New Orleans 1t says
that on the 22d uIt, a new Abolition brigade,
under Brigadier-G Weitzel (late acting
Mayor of the eity,) consisting Of seven regi-
ments of infantry (two Of them negroes,) a
squadron Of cavalry and four pieces Of arll-
lery, were sent up the river At the same
time, FIVE or six gunboats and transports
sailed down the river, bound for Berwick Bay,
to cooperate with the land forces Il was
well understood in the city that this exped-
ton Of pirates and robbeTs was intended to
devastste that rich and beautiful country ".

1t is well known that there has beer
confined at Camp Chase for the past eighi
or ten months, some five or six hundred
persons whom the authorities call "politi-
cal prisoners" arrested and sent there on
charges of disloyalty. Recently num-
Der Of them, after farcical examination
have been released, on taking the LlNooLs
oath of allegiance. Among the number
was boy of about thirteen years Of age,
who was arrested at Parkersburg. The
circumstances of his arrest are as follows:
1t appears that he was employed on a
steamboat running from Parkersburg TO
some point up the river. He contracted a
wash-bill with woman in Parkersburg,
which he paid, with the exception of ff.
teen cents, which he would not or did not
pay. She reported him as disloyal; he
was arrested, and as is usual in such cases.
he was hurried off to prison without even
being told of what he was charged. He
was taken to Camp Chase, and in that
worse than "black hole of Calcutta" 4" kept
closely confined four long and weary
months. Deprived of liberty; away from
home and friends, this poor boy was kept
in the filthy prison pens Of Camp Chase.
until few days ago he was brought forth
for examination, covered with filth and
vermin, pale and emaciated, the lustre
gone from his eye and the bloom from his
cheek, to learn that the charges were not
sufficient to convict him, and that he was
at liberty to go free.
AS improbable as this statement may
seem, we are assured that it is nevertheless
true. Is it not high time that the people
were beginning to look to the protection Of
their rights and liberty, when such high
handed outrages are perpetuated upon free
American citizens by the trucking min
ions of the despots in power?
Is it any wonder that the voice of free
people is heard in denunciation of these
villainies and arbitrary Infringement upon
the liberties of the citizen? Thank Heay
enl the time for such transactions is pastl
Let those who have perpetrated these out
RACES take heed lest by the measure they
have meted out to others, by that measure
it shall be meted out to them again.

Q. y, VaIIandIgham.

We are sorry to see the defeat Of this able
and reliable champion Of Democracy.
Among the young men, we regard Mr.. Val
landigham As standing in the front rank Of
statesmen. To his sagacity and 6rmpesa,
more than to any ether caute, We owe the
present success and position Of the Demo
cratic party, He had not so much confidence
in the abolition party and administration, as
he had in the tried and true Democratic party
He preferred to trust veterans, rather than
new recruits--preferred the old regular and
scientific practice, to any new and quack rem
edies TO preserve the Union; and hence he
was overwhelmed with the ISLANDERS and lies Of
the abolition press. But he chYalrously and
gallantly made the fight and repelled their
attacks We see from the Statesman that ID
his old district, he obtained a majority df
eight hundred, and was only beaten in con
sequence of the gerrymader in putting War
rem county into his district But we hope to
see Mr.. Valandighsm in position which he
so eminently deserves, that of u. s. Senator
from the State Of Ohio. He would be an i'm.
provement in the right direction, upon Mr..
Wade, who goes out Mr.. Vallandieham sees
the interests of white men; Mr., Wade can.
not, because the negro covers his whole Wis
ion, Vallandighan is cultivated refined in
bis manner, and national in his principles
Wade is course, vulgar, and excessively fanat-
ical. The good of the country cannot be bet
ter promoted than by putting the former in
the latters present position, and we hope to
see 1t done.-Sh Adams (Vermont,) Herald

why the Mississippi River Has
Not Been Opened.

Has 1t occurred to the people Of Illinois
that New England does not want the Missis.
slppi river opened, and that II remains un-
opened through the power of New England
with the administration at Washington 2
New England does not want the Mississippi
river opened, because the railroads in which
she has so much capital invested are earning
rich dividends from freights on western pro
duce, which produce would not seek market
over these railroads If the Mississippi river
were open. 1t does not matter to New Eng
land that the farmers Of the West are great
losers by her selishness in this business. It
does not matter to her that the farmers of the
West would find a more profitable market
down the Mississippi river than they find over
her railroads. 1t has never been the habit OF
New England to regard any other interest
than her own, and it has been by promoting
her own interests at the cost Of the interests
OF other sections that she has grown enor.

AssnNsInatiOn A or an EditOr.

special Dispatch to the Chicago Times.
CINCINNATI, Nov. g.
On Saturday last an abolitionist named
Brown, halter in Dayton, met on the street
Mr.. Bollmeyer, senior edit and proprietor OF
the Dayton Empire, and, for a trivial excuse,
deliberately drew revolver and shot him lead
The populace were 90 enraged that several
times during the day and evening they assem-.
bled in the vicinity of the jail to take Brown
out and hang him on the nearest tree, but
were prevented by the Mayor and Shelf, both
democrats. The inquest was held on Satur.
day night and have copy Of the testimony
taken before the Coroner, relative to the muir
der Of Nr. Bolimeyer, the able and fearless
democratic editor of the Dayton Empire The
witness to the occurrence are nearly all lead
ing abolitionists, including Mr. Cuppy, aboli-
tion State Senator from Dayton. His testi-
mony, with all the rest shows it to have been
a DELIBERATE and willful murder, without the
Slightest ptovocation. II required all the eff.
forts of the Mayor and Sheriff to save the
Jail from being mobbed and prevent the crowd
from taking Brown out and hanging him.
Brown is a vindictive abolitionist, and un-
doubtedly drew his inspiration of hate against
Mr.. Bollmeyer from abolition papers like the
Detroit and Chicago 7Iibunes A terrible
feeling pervades the democracy Of Dayton
and Montgomery county against certain lead
ing abolitionists who have expressed their ioy
at the murder ofMr Bollmeyer. The demo.
Gratis of Dayton are determined to put a stop
to these nefarious proceedings, and it will re-
quire the strongest jails to hold such men
from popular violence
Mr.. Vallandigham was not in the city at the
time of the occurrence, but is on visit to
his mother, at New Lisbon, Ohio
The abolition papers are trying to prove
that politics had nothing to do with the mur,
der Mr. Bollmeyer ranked high among the
democratic journalists of the State, and his
cowardly murder creates feeling all through
Ohio
The testimony was so strong against Brown,
that his friends, after few witnesses were ex.
amined, waiving an examination, and turned
the case over to the Grand Jury. guard Of
United States Regulars are now standing
guard at the Jail There is much angry feel.

the city and county, no further outbreak Is ap.

The stamp Act.

The Ashtabula Sentinel (Giddings Abol.
ton organ) thus berates the majority in the
present Congress for some of their doings at
the last session;
II ever legislative body attempted to put
on record for all time reputation for pro.
found stupidity, they failed to make an effort
that would at all compare with that of our
present Congress in passing the act requiring
stamps to be placed on legal papers. The
old story Of hole for the cat and another
for the kittens, is mere nothing TO it; and
the heaviest ideas ever snored through the
sleepy regions Of the circumlocuton Office,
were of rainbow brightness compared with
the provisions OF this act The tax II impo-
ses is luxury to the annoyance Of its re-
quirements, II Congress would redeem their
reputation ior common sense, let them amend
the act so as to allow any of the stamps to
be used ON any papers, II the amount is
sufficient Nothing more is required, and il
is sheer foolery to do otherwise.
