DEAD Lock AT THE CUMBERLAND
Coal MINEs-A gentleman from the
Cumberland coal mines in Maryland states
that nearly all the miners and bost,nen in
employ of the company have struck for
higher wages. The company refuse to
accede to these demands from the fact
that to do SO would necessarily carry up
the price Of the coal to such high
rate that there would be comparatively
little demand for it, especially when
brought in competition with superior coal
selling at about the same price There is
very little coal at the mines now, hence
this strike is the more unfortunate. If
the miners insist upon their demand for
increased wages 1t is said that the compa-
ny will discharge the hands and employ
others. Washington Republican.

,CoLoRED VoTERs.--A delegation of
the colored freemen of Louisiana had an
interview with President Lincoln, re-
Gently, and asked that the colored people
in Louisiana, who were free before the re-
bellion, may be permitted to vote in that
State. The President, it is stated, replied
that if the recognition of black men as hav-
ing right to vote was necessary to close
the war, he would not hesitate He saw
no reason why intelligent black men should
not vote; but this was not a military
question, and he would refer it to the Con.
siitutional Convention of Louisiana.

About Mobile.

The correspondent of the N. Y. Herald
writing from Farragut's feet off Mobile
says: '-
There are about twenty thousand troops
in and around Mobile. Two iron. clads,
the Tennessee and the Nashville, are 10 the
harbcr. The former is Formidable YES.
sci, is clad with iron and pierced for ten
guns. She draws fourteen feet of water.
The latter is not yet finished, and is not
yet plated with iron. The Nashville is q
powerful sidewheel steamer, and was
built at Selma. These iron clads were TO
assist in tho retaking of New Orleans
The programme is as follows The Ten
nesseee and Nashville, assisted by other
iron-clads from the Red river, were to pro-
coed up and down the Mississippi, while
the troops from Mobile, Magruder and
Dick Taylor's commands, were to make a
land attack at the same time IF the iron.
clads failed in passing Forts St. Philip
and Jackson, the troops were to return to
their respective commands, when the
Nashville and Tennessee were to blockade
the river at Southwest Pass, while the
others above New Orleans attacked the
city, and in case they were repulsed they
were to move up the river and blockade it
between New Orleansaud Natchez. Ow-
ing to the great draught of water of the
Nashville and Tennessee, it was intended
to buoy them over the bar by means Of
lighters. "Admiral Buchanan of the Con.
federate States Navy" commands the
Tennessee.
