New Iron fstInbOaf.

The new iron-clad gunboat Usage was
launched at the Union ship-yard, in Ca
rondelet est. Louis, on Tuesday last The
whole affair was a complete success. The
Usage is quite different in form, material
and principle from any gunboat now on
the Western waters. The Democrat says
of her, she is not, properly speaking, an
iron-clad, but an actual iron vessel, as the
hull and almost every thing about her is of
that material She is intended to be sup
piled with a tllrret like the Monitor. In
consequence of her construction for this
mode of fighting, but small portion of
the body OF the vessel will be exposed
above the surface of the water, and to in
tlict damage upon it will be almost an i'm
possibility. In case of accident the hull
is divided into water-tight compartments,
which will make the sinking of the boat a
very improbable thing. The location and
protection of the wheel, and the proposed
arrangement and management of the tur-
ret are to be effected in a way we do not
propose to describe. They are such, how
ever, as to promise at once great efficiency
and security

Vicksbur% and Port Hudson.

The Importance of capturing these
points three hundred miles apart, and the
only formidable obstacles to the free navi-
cation of the Mississippi, is now becoming
thoroughly understood. JEFF. DAVIS
speech at jackson, Mississippi, must have
been of assistance to our authorities in
this particular. He said :
The real points of attack were at Vicksburg
and Port Hudson, and to all who desired to
lend helping hand to the country in her pres
ent eXigency, he would say, IS 60 to Port Hud-
son and Vicksburg without delay"
Vicksburg and Port Hudson were points
that must be defended, and every effort must
be strained for this purpose. Vicksburg, he
said, would stand, and Port Hudson would
stand, if the people were true to themselves. ~
These affirmations point to the fact that
the rebels expect to make their most de-
termined opposition to the opening of the
Mississippi river, and that Vicksburg isthe
point at which the great struggle is to take
place. The stand at Port Hudson is to
keep back the BANKS and FARRIGUT Ex-
petition, and to preserve command of the
river between that point and Vicksburg,

sippi States may not be cut off

Our special dispatches of the Goth con-
tain the evidence of another instance of
Presidential interference with the plans of
campaign, which in the nature o. things,
can only be arranged safely by military
men. In LINCoIN's letter to Gen. Nc
CLELLAN, to which we refer, it is refresh
ing as specimen Of cool impudence, or
sublime conceit, to see how confidently he
speaks of 'my plan" in disparaging con-
trast to the plan Of Gen. MCCLELLAN Al
most every day some new document makes
it's appearance, showing that MCCLELLAN
was thwarted and embarrassed at every
turn by the President, who had the vanity
to conceive himself military genius, be-
cause the Constitution made him "Com-
mander-in-Chief" We fear that, in spite
of his amiability of temper, and the unde-
niable streak of humOr that runs through
him President LINCOLN will live to be gen
orally called a good-natured ass and that
he will not need to wait the period of gray
hairs before achieving that distinction.

The Kentucky Legislature.

We have already printed an abstract of
the late message OF Governor Robinson,
of Kentucky, stating particularly his hos
tility to emancipation. We find by late
advices from Frankfort that the state leg
islature incline to the same views as Gov.
Robinson. In the Senate, on the 9th,
joint resolutions were introduced as fol-
lows:
Resolred, That Kentucky hereby enters her
solemn protest to the Emancipation PrOclama-
ton of Abraham Lincoln. issued on the first day
of January, 1868, because unconstitutional, and,
if designed as war measure, both unwise and
impOltic; that the President of the United
States, as COmmander-in-Chief of the Army
and Navy, has no power by the constitution,
either by proclamation, manifesto, or edict, or
any other way to cmancipate or liberate the
slaves of any one; and such power, when as
sumed, is without any right whatever, and
therefore null and void.
That the loyal people of the United States in
tend to put down this wicked rebellion at the
might require but, at the same time they in
tend to preserve inviOlate that sacred instrtl-
ment the Constitution of the United States,
and leave no precedent for any one in after life,
to take from them any of their rights.
That slavery in the United States is peculiarly
and exclusively State institution, the control
of which has never been given to the general
governments; and any state, now or after this
rebellion shall have been put down, that has
heretofore emancipated her slaves, may again,
in her organic law incorporate said institution,
and again foster and protect slavery, without
the consent of the general government.
That the Union and constitution must and
shall be maintained

The Bill to Reimburse minnesota
for Expenses Incurred during the
Indian War.

We find in the Washington Gtobe of the
18th, the debate at length upon Senator
RICE's bill for the reimbursement to Mime
sofa Of the expenses incurred by the State
and its citizens in suppressing the rebellion
of the Aborgines on our frontier The de-
bate occupies five columns-too long for
insertion in our paper.
The claims of our people were clearly
and ably presented to the Senate by Mr..
RICE; the amount asked for was only
$3.50, 900; and this sum, or any portion Of
it, was only to be paid out by the Secre-
tary of the Treasury Oh the presentation
of proper accounts regularly audited and
allowed by the accounting officers of the
Treasury. 1t would have been supposed
that in case like that of our State, which
has been so patriotic and prompt in its
support of the Government, and which has
suffered SO wofully, from these Indian
massacres, the Government would have
instantly responded on the presentation of
her claims. But we regret to say that the
bill was laid over without action, and under
circumstances which cast doubt upon its
passage at this session. Abolition Senators,
who gladly vote millions to emancipate and
colonize niggers, throw obstacles in the
way OF the ruined white men of Minnesota
receiving recompense for their injuries.
We trust the bill, when it shall come up
again, will meet a more apparent show Of
justice; but as the people to be benefited
by its passage are neither black nor kinky-
haired, we make no calculations on its
SUCCESS

THE WEEKLY PIONEER AND DEMOCRAT


We have repeatedly been obliged, in no.
ticing the current news, to chronicle the
fact of President L1NCoLN's intermeddling
| in the details of army operations, more
especially in the Department of Virginia,
which is near at hand, and directly under
the Executive eye. The military trials
lately held at the Capital, have elected
many facts of this nature, of which the
public were heretofore ignorant. These
facts show, that, at every proposed cam
paign, the President has prepared his plan,
and in whole Or in part, forced it upon the
commanding General.
After President LINCOLN had apparently
abandoned his own notions, and allowed
MCCLELLAN to open his Peninsular cam
paign, he impaired its efficiency, and came
near destroying the army Of the Potomac
and the Government, by holding MoDow-
ELL upon the line which he thought ought
to have been adopted in preference to the
Peninsular one.
According to Republican authority
when the President moved MCCLELLAN
from command, he changed the line of
operations which that General had adopt
ed, and which was approved by the Gen.
eral-in-Chief, and commanded BURNSIDE
to move by way of Fredericksburg. The
terrible slaughter of the 18th December,
in the face of the rebel batteries, on Fred
Fricksburg Heights, was the result of
President LINcoLN's interference
Our dispatches this morning furnish an
other and later instance of President LIN
coins pernicious intermeddling. BURN
SIDE had ordered forward movement.
and while he was about executing it, the
President stopped him, by reason of the
representations of couple of FRANKIIN's
officers. BURNSIDE, like IMAM of spirit,
resigned, but the President forced him to
remain in command, even while denying
him the authority and confidence necessa-
ry to success.
And so it goes. Ii the country does not
land in perdition, it will be because official
folly cannot send it there. How many
hundreds of millions more of money must
be spent, and how many tens of thousands
of lives more must be sacrificed, to enable
President LINCOLN to test by experience,
and to his satisfaction, whether he is Il
military genius, or not?

Annexation to minnesota; or the
New State Of Superior.

SUPERIOR, WIS, Jan. IS. 1868.
TO the Editor Of the Pioneer:
Have you any definite information relat-
ing to the St. Croix and Superior Land
Grant Railroad? Who are the corpora
tors? Has any grading been done, or is
the company a humbug, gotten mp by GER
tain spectators in Hudson? If the St..
G. and L. S. Company is humbug, their
land grant should be taken from them and
given to company capable of building the
road. If it was obtained on false pre-
tences-and on this point many hold a de-
cided opinion-the Wisconsin legislature
should act promptly in the premises, and
protect the citizens of Northern Wisconsin,
or they will petition Congress. If the
new State of Lake Superior was organized
and recognized, we should take these mat
tiers into our own hands.
What is the prospect Of the session by
your legislature of St. Louis, Lake and
Carlton counties to join Douglas, La Pointe
and Ashland counties in Wisconsin, and
the upper peninsula Of Michigan, in the
formation of the State of Lake Superior ?
We have cleaned out the old county Off
GERS, and hope soon to have county mat
tiers in good shape. If certain selfish men
here will be satisfied with what they have
received, and give no further trouble, we
can pay our own State tax, and thereby
assist the Wisconsin volunteers. Pay the
State first, should be the motto Of every
conscientious man. There is a strong feel
ing here for annexation to Minnesota.
