Some Of our very good and leading
citizens are opposed 10 the various
aaioHs organized by the mechanics Of
Evansville. Il would seem strange
and nnaecouutahie course for men (who
have heretofore been looked upon as
honest aud clear thinking) to parsue,
were il not known that they have been
fed GA an admixture prepared and put
up BY council of "bosses, of which
truth is no Ingredient We would ad.
vise, therefore, that this mixture be

to bring to the surface dirty psrtiel,s

led, why then this hostile aititade7

ing, aud hoass-rent are high, should

citizeA9 All honest and candid persons
must answer in favor OF the working
commonly. We ell know that high
prices DO exist. hence the demand for
an Increase of wages By the several
unions OF Evansville, asking merely the
same advance on their former wages
that IL imposed on all the necessaries OF
life. The merchant obtains more for
his goods, the 4" boss mechanic more
for his manaiactures-all obtain their
advance without a strike; but the
moor mechanics must needs be refused
their reasonable request, to obtain which
they are forced to act together. These
unions are neither political nor social
conspiracies, AS some persons seem 10
think. Our good citizens might as wei
cry down Free Masonry or 0dd-Fellow-
ship as these unions, which tend TO bet
ter the moral and social condition of
their class. Ii is a remarkable fact,
that in cities where these unions are ex-
tensive there is less dissipation among
the journeymen who are members OF
union than prevails in cities where none
exists.
We now intend TO state few facts
that cannot be disputed. The boss
mechanics of this place with honorable
exeeptiens) seem disposed to withhold
from the journeyman Just compensa-
ton for his labor They are also en-
deavOring (some excepted) to break. up
the several unions organized by the
iourneymen, because unity of action is
the only proposed mode of defense
against their worst enemies, aysrice and
tyranny A strike has never been re-
sorted 70 only as last chance to obtain

ing we made brief mentions Of tho at
tack being made upOn the camp o, Col
onel eiAllap at Paiutsyiile, johnson
county, Kentucky Since then we have
learned the following additional partieu-
lars. The attack vas made about ten
o'clock on Wednesday morning by over
900 rebel infantry, who we're supposed
to have been under command Of Gen.
Jones, who was reported to be IN OwsIey
county few days since. OuF forces
numbered about 700 men, all told The
rebels made desperate charge upon our
works, which charge was met by our gal
liant boys With determination, bat the
rebel force being too strong, our brave
little band fell slowly back until they
reached an advantageous place The
rebels were IA great glee over their sup
posed triumph, and made another des-
pefate effort to fepulse Colonel Gallup
and bis men. This second charge was
met by the FEDERAL troops, aud, after
sharp tight Of short duration, the rebels
were driven from the field, leaving aheir
dead and wounded in our hands
