II From the CINCINNATI Enquirer.
DIutiny of A Battalion or the
Tenth Ohio Cavalry. Sea- s

"a few DAYS since an order came from the
Government authorities to the Tenth Ohib
Cavalry Col. Smith, at Cleveland, to break up
camp and move ssuthward. via Cincinnati
The first battalion, under Major Saunders,
composed of Companies A. =. g and e ar.
rived yesterday morning, and we're to embark
on the steamers Jacob Strader and Emerald
for Nashville. The men refused to 20 on board
the steamers until they Had received the pay
and bounty due them from the Government.
The officers did not command them to board
the steamers, but begged and coaxea, all to no
purpose. Upon inquiry we learn that Col.
Smith promised the men, before leaving camp,
that the Paymaster was in Cincinnati, and
that upon their arrival here they should re.
.oeive in full all that was coming to- them,
which is FIVE months pay, and part Of the
bounty offered by Government to volunteers!
Upon their arrival here the soldiers demand
| ed their money, and were told that the Pay
master was out of fundas The promise Of
Col. Smith and the failnre Of the Paymaster
tomake that promise good, the four compa-
mics mutinied, broke ranks, drew their swords,
and asseverated selemnly that they would
sswade in bloodn ands'sdie right here, before
they would 60 another step. The officers
plead with them in the mildest terms possible
to 90 on boardof the steamers. but the replies
were invariably, "we'll see you did first" I
Speeches from cotton bales and wagons, by
shoulder strapped gentlemen, were laughed at
and Kissed by the mob, when finally the Ma
jor tolds the men that be '.knew the boys de-
served their money plagueJ we'll, and if they
would 60 on the boats this time, on the failure
Of Che next promise to pay them of he would
lead them in asserting their rights" This
had q tendency to calm the dragons, who. one
by one, boarded the vessels. At alate hoat
last night the four companies had all taken
passage without any body being burt. The
timidity Of the officers was particularly noti-
ceable and disgusting to all who witnessed
their conduct. A firm officer could have CON-
| manded that battalion TO 60 on board Of those
boats, and. he would have been obeyed, and
disobedlence with such man would have
been met by summary punishment We dc
not endorse the action of the Government in
keeping these men, putsof their pay and boun-
| ty. and. somebody:cis to blame 10 this crimi-
! nality. E.e 50

Kentucky State Election.

We aro agrceaby disappointed in the re-
suit of tho State elect ton in Ken ucky on /, no
3l. The Union men of tho State have spo.
kon by u majority of twenty to twenty. five
thousand, as estimated ut Frankfort, from
the election returns received. Though tho
Union mon OF Kentucky do not endorse the
Presidents emancipation policy nor the
arm'ng of negroes to fight rebels, they are
soand on the main question that tho war
must 60 on until tho robolIion :s suppressed,
and that men and money must DO furnished
to carry It on ,f, c'vey. The Kentucky Y
Democrats took tho Vallundigham position
OF "not another man or dollar" for tho
prosecution OF the war, unl gloriously has
robel Copperbeadism been defeated even in
Kentucky.
Judge Bramlettc, tho Union candidate Cor
Governor, in his speeches on tho stump was
so radical and outspokon that tho Louisville
Democrat predicted his defost by an over.
wholming majority, Ho said perish sluvorv
II necessary to preserve tho Union, and tho
result OF Inc vote proves that the honest
masses Of Kentucky are truo. and roady to
rally around bold aud reliable leaders. Tto
election of Brutus J, Clay aud Greon Clay
Smith TO Congress by decided mnjorities, is
0 further demonstration Of tho patriotic
sympathy OF tho people with out.spokcn
Union men. ... .,
The result in tho othor Congressional
districts is not known, further than that
Mallory is reelected in tho Louisville dis.
tric'. and Wadsworth in the Aiaysv,lle--
They did badly in tho last Congress. but 1t
's thought thoy will not act with the Val

The New York Riots.

That Governor Seymour, Fernando Wood
md their alliliatOrs were tho instigs.ors and
sbettors of tho roeeut anti-draft riots in
Now York, is an undcniable conclusion.
That the rioters proceeded to greater eK-
cesses, In tho barbarOus destruction Of life
and property, than was intended By their
political managers, is doubtloss true but.
having removed the curbi and barriers which
held in check the vicious, the proagate and
abandoned Of great city,-having opened
she floodgaes of crime and iniquity, and
surned their desolatng food into Tho busy
streets Of tho metropolis, they must DO
hold responsible for tho horrible atrocities
and bloody desoiation which marked it's
course. There is littlo room for doubt that
sbese Northern traitors had arranged for
the breaking out Of numerous and formids,

Goveroment to give up tho draft. and aban.
