TMR RIOTS.

Whatever others may have done, zee have not
been accustomed TO underrate the strength OF
the Slaveholders' Rebellion in the Free States,
and especially in this City. We were long ago
convinced that every thief, every blackleg, with
nearly every one else who makes shameful
living at the cost of public morals or the we'll
being of individuals, ia an instructive and yehe-
ment partisan Of that Rebellion. Every ono
who lives luIurously yet earns nothing
aud does no good, is the natural ally OF
those who steal their livelihood by con
spring 10 make others work for them
without pay. Hence We have long re-
gardcd with more serious apprehension the
plotting. and maneuvers Of Northern Copper
heads, than those Of the open traitors with
whom they intensely sympa,hze. Wa could
always measure and calculate the force Of the
former; not ~ that Of the latter And in the

by the hail.fellow speeches Of magistrates who

The Two Clays.

From the Louisville Journal, 9th rlt
Under our obituary head is announced
the death of Thomas J. Clay Thomas
was the youngest son of COL Henry Clay,
who lost his life in the defence of his
country on the field of Buena Vista, and
the grandson of the illustrious statesman
of Kentucky. He secured a liberal edu-
cation at the University of Virginia. and
has inspired his friends with high hopes of
his future distinction. He was frank and
and courageous, generous and impulsive.
His confiding nature made him, before he
attained his majority, victim to the in
sidious influence of Buckner, Breckinrikge
and Others, and he held the position of
Inspector General on Buckners staff at
the time of his death
Scarcely year ago we announced the
death of his only and older brother, Hen
ry. OF mature age, Henry had treasured
up more sacredly the lessons taught by his
patriotic fathers. Always devoted to his
country, his love for it was strengthened
and deepened by travel in other lands.
Early in this struggle he entered the Fed
eral service, and, after distinguishing HIM
self in the battle of Shiloh, returned home
to die OF disease contracted in the field.
How sad the reflections which the career
and end Of these two brothers suggest
Born under the same root. nurtured in the
same arms, taught the same lessons,
brothers devotedly attached to each other,
they yet separated in this great national
struggle to meet face to face in opposing
armies Let us hope that, after their brief
separation, they have now met in that
better world, where the current Of their
love shall no more be checked by war. but
flow on in one perpetual stream through
out an immortal life.

Cardinal Wisemau, whom he regarded

dowments, and many of the distinguished
Catholic magnates Of Europe, looked upon
the slavery of any race with the strongest
disfavor. Montalambert had stood before
an audience CT great Catholics, and de.
clareh that man who holds human be-
ings, black or white, in bondage, was the
enemy Of freedom, and tyrant at heart.
The denunciation was received with unan-
imous plaud is; not one of that distin-
guisheG Catholic assembly, but responded
with undisguised approval. (Applause.)
He concluded by saying that he hoped,
now that the excitement was over, that
bis friends would all concede that he had
performed his plain duty. He had con-
ceived the course he had adopted to be
such, and fearlessly he had pursued it.
No man could do less than follow the die

the approval OF his Heavenly Master and

The archbishop Immediately retired
from the stage, followed by loud and pro-

less than an hour in delivery, and, as
might be expected, created a profound

expressed, but from the candid and unstu-

Official Account of the Attack on the
Blockading Fleet.


WAsuMGToN, February 9.-0nlcial dis
patches have been received from Admiral
Dupont, regarding the recent affair of
Charleston also inclosing the account of
Commodore Stillwagen Of the Mercedita.
The accounts do not differ from those
recently sent by telegraph, and present
no new features. The Mercedita and
keystone were the only vessels injured,
though other vessels of the squadron
were struck by the enemy's shot. The
officers and crew of the Mercedita were
paroled, but nothing was said about the
vessel, which, together with the Key
stone, are repairing at Port Royal. The
rams came upon the feet during a thick
fog, and were not seen until close along
side the Mercedita. The ram being so
low in the water, the Mercedita was una
BILE TO bring a gun TO bear on her, and
was disabled by the lirst shot Of the
ram, which passed clear through her,
aud, exploding her steam drum, deprived
her of the power Of motion, killing the
gunner aud scalding a number of the
crew. The ram, after being detained
half an hour by the Mercedita, started for
the Keystone, and soon disabled her by
q shot through both steam. chests. Ten
rifle shells struck her and two burst on
the quarter deck.
The Housatonic gave chase and shot
from her struck the pilot-house Of the
ram, doing, il is thought, some damage
and carrying awsy a flag The rebel
vessels then passed northward, and took
refuge in the Swash Channel. About
one. fourth o. the crew Of the Koyston,
were killed aud wounded. Most of then
died from the escaping steam. Com
mander SGllwagen has asked, and Ad
miral Dupont ordered an investigation.
