TIE WAR NEWS.

q The news of the last week presents no
feature of great Importance. Perhaps the
most i'm portant is the capture, by the Con-
federates, of the Federal iron-clad guhboat,
Indianolis, on Red river. She had been
sent to recapture the Queen of the West,
(Which had been a short time ago captured
by the Confederates) but it seems from the
report of Com. Porter, the Queen of the
West, aided by the Webb, captured the
Indianola.
Grant is reported as nearly ready to at
tack Vicksburg, and with high hopes Of
success.
We have still reports of active prepara-
tions for teavy operations against Charles
ton,
The Confederates are reported to be very
sIllen on the Rappahsnock, refusing for
two days to receive the usual flags of truce.
The mud ia that region is said to be worse
than ever, laying an embargo on operations.
Rosecrans is said to he on the eve of a
forward movement.
The rumors of heavy invasion of Ken
lucky by Breckenridge, turn out to be bosh.
A small force of Confederate Cavalry seem
to Rave visited Mt. Sterling and Flemings-
burg, taking many horses. and some rumors
of fights with them have reached US, but
in form not authentic enough for publioa-
ton.
The following is the latest we have from
Tennessee.
Special Dispatch to the Cincinnati Enquirer.
MoTsan's Cavalry Completely Routed
Near Bradyville
To the Editor of the Enquirer:
MUBFREEsBoRo, March Am expedition

gether with the Third and Fourth Ohio and
Fourth Regulars, and First Middle Tennes-
see Cavalry, under General Stanley. Both

hard lighting the enemy were repulsed, with
great loss in killed and wounded, togeth er
with eighty-five prisoners, including three
Captains and one Adjutant. We captured,
also, three hundred saddles and brides, q
large amount examination, camp equipage
and forage. Our loss was one killed and six
wounded.
The expedition proved total rout of the
enemy. Captain Raffenstein, of the Fourth

The Rights of the people.

ri The, act of Col, Gilbert in dispensing the
Democratic State Convention by the bayo-
net, will fail of'its design. TheSDsthocrats
have constitutional and lawful right to
select and vote for whomsoever they think
proper for Governor and other State offices ,
and..they intend to exercise that right, in a
lawful manner, in August next. in defiance
of allthreats, or intimidations from the will
ling tools of perjured tyrants. Whoever
attempts to restrain For obstruct this clear
constitutional right of the citizensof Ken
lucky, should have Treasury more ex-
haustless than Ghase'smanufactory of green
backs; for the damages will be terrible. 1t
ought not and will not be suffered. that any
man, (wi tn or without shoulder straps), any
citizen of Kentucky, even, much less an
upstart outsider from Abolitioldon1, shall
obstruct the right Of the lawful citizens tc
choose whom they please for Governor oil
any other office.

FLEMING County. Feb. 2stLI, 1868.


Editors BuHetin:-Since the usurpation of
Col. Gilbert, in dispensing the members Of
the Democratic Convention, the following
interrogateries have presented themselves,
and our fellow citizens would respectfully
solicit an answe rfrom any source whatso-
ever:
How can the so-called Unionists of Ken
lucky endorse the Northern Democracy, and
at the same time assist and cheer the acts Of
the Abolition soldiery in dispensing the re-
representatives. of the n orthern or Peace Dem =
ocracy in the State of Kentucky? How can
they ever restore the Union by voting men
and money to carry on the war, and at the
same time endorse the peace policy of the
Democratic party? If Mr.. Lincoln has vo-
lated the Constit ution in proclaiming the
negroes free who may escape as an incident
of the war, what constitutional right have the
Kentucky Unionists for voting him men and
money to carry ont this proclamation If
Kentucky Unionists cry ont against Demo-
Gratis in Kentucky, and accuse them of dis
couraging enlistm ents, will the Unionists
/ please tell us how they are IN for the war
and against it at the same time? If thu
Unionsts of kentucky are the same as the
Northern Democrats, why do the Unionists
| of Kentucky treat Democrats just as the
Abolitionists of Ohio, Indiana, SC, treat the
| Democrats? II Mr.. Lincoln has committed
an outrage on the citizens of Kentucky, VIII c
are his officials? If John Brown was hung
for trying to incite servile Instruction, why
should Nj. Lincoln have men and money t.
carry out John Browns scheme? Will the
Unionists of Kentucky tell us, how they will
stop the war and carry it on at the same
time? Win the people of Kentucky vot,
for men who arc so mystical in times like
these? Are the people of Kentucky nov
represented or n1isrepesented? Will the Un-
ionists of Kentucky produce their record ant
convince the people that they are Demo
Gratis? So far, we are not in possession o
any facts which could induce US to believt
them to be Democrats; and until such evil
denee is produced we cannot "exercise faith.

CONGRESS.

The Conscript act has passed both Houses,
and already the telegraph reports that Lin
coin will call out 600 900 men under it,
Many other strong measures are in progress,
but we think best to lay over any notice
of them till our next, as by that time, (Con-
gress expiring on the 4th inst.) we shall
know what has passed and what not. Lin
coin has called an extrs session of the Sen
ate to act upon his nominations-a very
large addition of Major Generals and Brig
adler Generals being desired by the Admin
istration.

FThe session of the British Parlam ent
was opened on the 5th instant by a speech
from the Queen. This document contains
but little of importance excepting the fol-
lowing: .t u p.
Her Majesty has abstained from taking
any step with a view to induce a cessation
of hostiities between the contending par
ties in the North American States, because
it has not yet seemed that any such over
ture would be attended with probability of
success. Her Majesty has viewed with the
deepest concern the desolating warfare
which still RACES in those regions, and has
witnessed with heartfelt grief the severe dis
tress and suffering which that war has in
flicted upon a large class of her Majesty's
subjects, but which have been borne with
great fortitude and exemplary resignation
1t is some consolation to her Majesty to be
led to hope that this suffering and distress
is rather diminishing than increasing, and
that some renewal of employment is begin
ming to take place in the manufacturing
district s.'

Pres. SparkS-CuriOSities of OrnithoIo-

of no breed-The Breed of Boobies.
While at Frankfort lately, the writer en-
ioyed the edifcation Of hearing the renown-
ed Orator, Pres. Sparks, of Henry, make a
speech, which strongly reminded US of what
we had read some where. eve believe in the
report of one the Arctic Expeditions). On
one of the Islands of the North Sea, the ex-
plorers found lazy, lubberly bird, which
they called the "Boobie." 1t laid eggs and
dropped its excrement at any place where
the inclination came upon it,; and when the
disposition to ,incubate came on, it gathered
up any eggs it could find along the shore
and sat down upon them. Sometimes it
hatched snake-sometimes a turtle, but,
most generally, a~Boo5ie. Sometimes tn g
storms destroyed the eggs, but washed upon
the beach a great many pebbles looking like
eggs, very white until discolored by the at
mosphere and the sun. These the BqoIie
bird would gather up and set upon, and like
the goose upon the cymblins. dein the effort
to hatch q BOoJie. The Henry County bird
is one of the Boobis order. He tries hard to
hatch something, but his fedgelings are like
himself, only Boobies. He don't. even get a
snake or turtle; and some day will be found,
like the goose, dead upon the cynbEins.

@The act of Gilbert, in dispensing the
Democratic Convention, at Frankfort, is
justly receiving the severest condemnation
from all parts of the country. The truth
is, the act was utterly indefensible, and no
man can defend it by respectable proof or
argument. If the pretended grounds of
his act had any foundation in truth, they
would have been exhibited before now
But they did not exist. Gilbert,s act was
arbitrary, lawless, tyrannical and iudefepsi-
BILE, and in our opinion, Governor Robin
son should see to it that he be prosecnt.d
at civil law for the trespass upon the rights
of others who were better men and better
citizens than he, n subservieucy to govern
ment power, dare be.
We publish this week an article from the
Louisville Democrat, stroug Union paper,
in condemnation of GiIberts outrage. We
publish also a communication from a dele
gate on the same subject, all which will be
found very interesting and Instructive.

0FThe Richmond Examiner contains Q
dispatch from Port Hudson, which gives the
particulars of the capture of the Federal
steamer Queen of the West by the rebels
1t is stated that the Queen of the West cap
tured rebel transport, and forced its pilot
to take the wheel, ordering him to take the
steamer to the Federal batteries, instead of
doing which he took her to the rebel bat
teries, which disabled her, when she drifted
to the opposite shore, where her crew made
their escape, with the exception of eighteen,
who were made prisoners.
