the same, to which Butler acceded and issued
an order as suggested by Ould, which was
at once countermanded by our government.
Butler then made the present arrangement,
and the government has stopped that, not

tions. The plan of exchange adopted by
Gen. Butler has been rejected by the War
Department and exchanges on that basis
have been stopped. e i

LOUISVILLE, March 16-Gov. Bramlette
has just issued the following address to the
people OF kentucky: n sfr,1z
I FELLow-C CITIZENS In view of the dis
turbance of the popular mind, produced by
the enrolment of slaves for the army in
Kentucky, 1t is deemed prudent to make
the fOllowidg suggestions for the benefit
and guidance of the loyal people of Ken
tucky;. Your indignation should not move
you to commit acts of violence, nor to un-
lawful resistance. Standing US we have
stood and will ever stand for the Constitu-
tion, the Union and the enforcement of the
laws, we must repel the efforts Of rebellion
to overthrow our Government by our gal
liant soldiers in the field, and meet and cor
rect unjust or unconstitutional legislation
by legitimate appeals to the constituted tri-
bunals of the Government; and through
the ball0t-box displace, in the constituted
modes, those who pervert or abuse the trust
committed to them. This is the only true
mode OF maintaining the Constitution, the
Union and the enforcement of the laws.
The mere act of enrolling the names of
slaves does not affect any right of the citi-
zen. No draft has been ordered nor do we
know that a draft will be ordered. 1t NAV
or may not. We should abide by and main
tain the laws, and pursue, in the modes
provided, the redress it affords. If any vio-'
lence or wrong to the person or property of
the citizen be committed by any officer or
soldier, against the knowledge of the land,
make your accusations in the mode pre-
scribed by law, and if the commanding of
ficer refuses or neglects to use his utmost
endeavors to arrest an officer or soldier
under his command, so accused, and hand
him or them over to the civil magistrates
for trial, when officially advised of the
facts, the Executive of the State will pre-
fer charges and demand court-martial i'm
the Union under the Constitution, and I'm
accordance with law assert and urge your
rights. ---~ ..-.- . --. N
tits our duty to obey the law until It is
declared by judicial decision to be uncon-
stitutional. The citizen whose property
may be taken under it for public use will
be entitled, under the imperative mandate
of the Constitution, to just compensation
for his private property so taken for puDnc
use. Although the present Congress may
not do us Justice, yet it is saIe W ely upon
the justice Of the American people. and an
appeal to them will not be unheeded or un-
answered. Peace restored, and the unity of
our Government preserved, will drive to
ignominious distance, those who, in the
agency of our conflict, perverted their sa-
cred trust to the base uses of partizan ends
and fanatical purposes. Uphold and main
tain our government as constituted, and
obey and enforce its just demands, as the
only hope of preserving free Institutions. b

FATAL ArFRAY.
Soldiers Attack N Drug Store in Bucy-
rus.-One Killed and Two
wounded. .H2L

Representative Beer, of Crawford county,
furnishes us with the particulars Of "a recent
affi ay at Bucyrus in that county, of which
M incorrect and partzan report appeared in
q morning contemporary ON Tuesday. On
Friday of last week boisterous soldier of
the 10th regiment entered Fulton's Drug
Store in Bucyrus, and commenced abusing
the clerks and others in the place at the
time denouncing them as traitors and Cop
perheads for voting for Vallandigham. He
was requested to leave the premises, and
did 50, swearing to return again and wreak
vengeance upon the persons who had in
suited him, as he thought. On Monday the
same man returned to- the store with eight
or ten of his companions, and commenced
an assault upon one of the clerks by strik-
ing him in the face. The clerk then struck
the leader and knocked him down, when
the other soldiers drew their revolvers and
fired upon the clerks and proprietors of the
store. They in turn drey their reyolvers
and fired at the soldiers, wounding the
leader of the party in the neck so severely
that no hopes are entertained of his recov-
cry. One soldier received two balls in the
hip, and another was shot in the leg, neither
being very serious wounds. None Of the
people connected with, or who chanced to
be in the store at the time the attack was
made, happened to be injured, though the
store itself was considerably damaged in
the melee. ~ ~
Considerable excitement prevailed In the
town and county in reference to the affray,
but prominent citizens were active in their
endeavors to allay the disturbance, and at
last accounts quiet and order were restored.
The dispatch sent to the State Journal by
one Colonel Lemert, late of the seth Ohio,
representing the affray as "Copperhead
mob" was total misrepresentation OF the
affair, and was calculated to incite further
bad feeling and disturbance. The eCopper-
heads" as this gentleman pleases to term
them were attacked in their own house by
an armed mob, and were compelled in SELF
defense to use their weapons or be them
selves overpowered and perhaps murdered.
The frequent recurrence of these despe-
rate and bloody affrays-for which, we re-
peat, the soldiers are not SO much to blame
as the Abolition leaders who instigate and
encourage them -developes one nemelancholy
and lamentable fact: that certain class Of
politicians are striving 70 create a rigid d.
vision between two classes of citizens, and
when collisions occur, extend their sympa-

aTHE CITY.
THE II VARIETIES.
"A New Pcrformance Last Night--
The Institution Cleaned Out.


Kinney's <sVarieties," an institution of
the dance house character, located on High
street, and one OF the hardest places of
amusement" ever known in the city, was
made the scene ofa performance last night
which was not among the varieties an
nounced between startling exclamation
points In the bills Of the day. The house is
the resort of rowdies and bummcrs of the
most careless and reckless class, who, hav-
ing nothing else to do, go there partly to
enjoy the performances of half-naked
danseuse, the charms of the girls who re-
tail bier among the audiences during the
intervals, and partly to participate in any
little row which may chance to turn up
Last night about the usual number of sol
diers were present, most of whom had in
dulged freely in the ardent retailed by the
girls. The natural consequence ensued.-
A row commenced about some trifie,
and the entire audience became in
volved. The seats in the hall were torn up
and transformed into weapons, which were
hOOiJ uoCu w ehO NohhoS5O Va huihOtVuo
heads; the actors were compelled to wind
up their antics; the bar was cleaned out, and
the concern effectually gutted. We are in
formed that one citizen was stabbed and
several otherwise injured. One ortwo SOL
diers were terribly beaten, and several more
received broken heads in the melee which
are pretty certain to add to the distracting
effects of crack-skull whisky this morning.
On coming into the streets the soldiers were
extremely boisterous, and one of them, more
desperate or drunk than the rest, brandished
his revolver in the face Of a policeman, and
was knocked down for his trouble. The
disturbance was finally quelled; the soldiers
retired to their hunks, leaving the Varieties
in the condition Of the wreck and ruin of o
banquet hall.
It's doubtful whether the soldiers are en-
titled to the sympathy of the community
In this instance; but it Is quite GER
tain that the management Of the Varieties
win receive none, whether entitled to it or
not. t<al,t.,>L

The cutting gun was tested to-day by

throwning 200 shots per minute. The Rus

were highly gratified at its success.
