mounting 40 6S-poundors. Under these
guns is dam which it is said no boats can
pass in less than two homs, during which
time they would meet with certain destruc-

batteries, plated with four and half inches
of the best hammered irons mounting q

II now seems determined that an extra

place - the Senatorial caucus having ad-

that " lawmakers should not he law-hrtak-

to state, in such an event, the purpose fol
which he called ii together; but nowher,
can we find authority 80 warrant the as
sumption of this power by the Legislature
The fact is, the hw-makers of this Stat,
are becoming notorious for their violations
of law, and their universal disregard of til,
interests of their constituents -- and csl c

THE CINCINNATI MOB.

TuE Queen City was on the oath Of March
made the scene of a most disgraCclul aud
outrageous proceeding - occasioncd by the
cowardly acts Of some Of its citizens. Ithas
been but a few years since Il newspaper
press was torn down and thrown into the
Ohio river, at Newport, opposite Cincinnati,
and we suppose Cincinnati has seen fit to
follow the example of tho enlightened (?)
slave worshipcrs Of the South. Ii is true
we do not coincide with Mr.. Phillips in his
views, either respecting the rebellion or
slavery, or any other subject in particular
Bat we have always been a believer in free
thought and free speech - n believer in al
lowing every one to entertain their own
opinions in regard to any subject, and the
right to express those opinions Irccl cly.--
Something more than a year ago, Wm. l..
Yancey, the vile and bra2en faced secession
ist, delivered one of his characteristic har
augucs against the Union, against the people
of the North, and everybody ami everything
but the darling institution, and the sup
porters of it slavery. But, when a radi-
cal man of Northern birth attempts to utter
his sentiments, no matter how loyal, in the
same building he is ossailod and grossly
and shamctully msultcd - the more shame
ful because of the object to which the pro
cccds were to he applied TO the benefit o
the sick and wounded soldiers. The sun
realized was Sll4,ss, which was handed
over to the Sanitary Commission, and duly
acknowledged.
