Launching Of the Iron Clad
"CataWba'' at Cincinnati.

The Iron Clad "Catawba" was success
fully launched at Cincinnati Wednesday
We quote from the Enquirer the following
description of the "wet scene' not contem
plated by the arrangements
At the foot Of Butler street great crowd
was gathered, and though those standing
near the waters edge we're repeatedly or
derld away, they returned whenever the
policemen were called elsewhere. At the
moment the launch was fully in the water,
an immense wave rolled shoreward, Instant
ly submerg:ng one or two hundred people,
and carrying many of them off their feet.
As 1t retreated, a sight at once ludicrous
and terrifying was presented. Women and
children were crawling up the muddy bank,
wildly clutching at each others heels; men
were foundering on their backs and bellies,
and one individual, his hat carried off by
the undertow, was franticaliy hugging a
log, alternately floating and burrowing in
the mud. as the surf advanced and receded
fortunately the first wave was the LARGEST
and most sudden, and all the batbers A.
gainst their will scrambled out OF DANCER
one bedraggled individual said he "didn't
care a pin for the wetting, but he didn't
like to miss the showw He disappeared in
a neighboripg bar room, and probably
launched a little Latawba on his own ac.
count into region where there was no
danger of its displacing an overwhelming
bulk of water.

We publish on the outside OF to-day's
naner AN extract from the Baltimore cor
respondent of the World, protesting to give
an exposition of the rebel plans for the
ensuing campaign. Who the correspondent
who STYLES himself "Druid" is, we do not
know, but his letters bear internsl evidence
to the fact that he is we'll posted up in all
that relates to the designs of the rebel
chiefs. The recent raid into Kentucky was
predicted by him and published more than
a week ago. Tho event has established his
reliability to that extent, at least. The
plan of the campaign, as revealed by him,
is q very formidable one and shrswd enough
to be literally true. If it is not spoiled by
the Federal commanders it will not be from
the lack of the necessary information. 1t
is fact which has been demonstrated more
than once during the present war, that
army correspondents of the Northern
news papers have in several instances OBJ"
tanned correct information of the moves
ments and plans Of the rebels which the
General commanding failed to procure
through his scouts. Let us hope that in
this case to be forewarned is to be FORE
armed.

Interference With the Rights
of the Press.

The raid Of the Administration against the
press of the 'untry was not intended so
much for the disloyal journals as the loyal

purpose and got out Of the way. 1t was
deliberately contemplated at one time to
pounce down upon certain Republican jour
mails, and to thrust into the National forts

publicists OF the country, if not more, and

About 10 o'clock this morning privates
Samuel Cook and Thomas B. Ford, of Co.
D, 10th regiment Pa. Reserves, while on du-
ty as guard to a wood hauling party, were
killed by a party of guerrillas, about mile
from Manassas.
Col j. W. Fisher, commanding the bri.
gade of Pa Reserves stationed at that point,
Immediately sent detachment of the 18th
Pa. cavalry in search of the marauders, but
have not learned with what success.
Early this morning Col. Mosby, at the
head of about 500 rebel cavalry, made his
appearance on the line of the Orange and
Alexandria Railroad, near Bristoe Station,
SO suddenly as to take by surprise the pa
troll for the protection of the road between
that place and Manassas. From 20 to Is of
our soldiers were captured and carried into
captivity. The rebels went away in the
direction of Fredericksburg.
Last night It, Col. Gustin, with detach.
ment of the 18th Pa. Reserves, of Colonel
Fishers command, went on an expedition
to Occoquan and vicinity. The party re-
turned this morning with five prisoners. of
whom, two, named Henry Il. Tillett and j.
Marshall, belonged to the 18th Va. cavalry,
These men were captured at the house of
VIM Moore, short distance from Occa4uan.
Some horses were also captpred having u.
s. in large and distinct character branded
upon their shoulders. They were brought
to manassas with the prisoners; hut Mrs.
Moore came on after them, ALL claimed
that they were her husbands property,
were raised by him from colthood, and that
the U: S. were her husbands initials and
stood for VIM. Moore. Col Fisher did not
see the similarity in names and initials, and
retained the property and sent the prison

Iris significant fact that while hepuo-
licsn journals and Republican Congressman
have wasted great deal of paper, INK ana
breath in denouncing Mr.. LONG and his re
cent speech, not one of them has attempted
to answer his arguments. Their only weap'
on is personal abuse and bitter inVectl7e'
which, while it only serves to enrase their
opponents, leaves their position nnassailed'
The only argument in reply to LONGS speech
we have yet seen is contained in the New
York World, Democratic paper. When
will the radicals learn that personal abuse
accomplishes no good result, and that q
calm and digni6ed argument can only be
refuted by more cogent reasoning.

A REMARKABLE FoRGERY.-The rebel
Secretary of the Navy, Mr.. Mallory, has
written to Secretary Benjamin pronouncing
document which purports to be his own
annual report and which has been widely
circulated in this country and Europe as
such, a complete forgery. In this spurious
report statements were made very dam
aging to the Confederate cause in Europe
respecting ironclads said to be making
in France and Great Britain. Diplomatic
notice was taken of it both by Mr.. Seward,
our Secretary of State, and by Lord Lyons,
the British Minister. 1t was alluded t, in
Parliament, and upon it the British Gov
eminent acted. The forgery was pepetra-
ted last December, and it is alleged that it
was Illuminated for political effect, by some
Northern Aboltionist. Who is the forger?

Negro Outrage I'm Louisiana
The New Orleans correspondent of the
Herald sayE y
On the 9th Of January last, early in the
morning, the family of Mr.. Nef, residing
near Port Hudson, were awakened by the
report of firearms andithe rafting of bull
lets against the house. On Dir. Neff ap-
pearing at window he saw ten or twelve
armed negroes; and upon asking what they
wanted they replied by ordering him to
open the door. This demand not being in
stantly complied with, they forced the door
open; but as soon as they appeared upon
the threshold Mr.. Nef fred upon them the
contents of shot gun, which wounded one
of the ruffians. The family was composed
Of Mr.. Neff, his wife, son and daughter. A
friend was also in the house at the time of
the attack.
The instant that the gun was discharged
Mr.. Neff and his son were shot, but neither
was instantly killed. One of the negroes
then advanced towards Mr.. Neff, with
cooked pistol in his hand, when the daugh-
ter advanced and threw her arms around
her father, begging the savage to spare his
life. The pistol snapped harmlessly almost
in his face and the next moment the I'M
happy man was corpse, beaten to death
with dubbed musket while in the arms of
his daughter. Young Neff was dragged off
by others, murdered and the body secreted
in the woods, where it was found about
month afterward, almost entirely feshless
the buzzards having preycd upon it during
the whole of that time. The friend made
his escape.
The fends now attempted to compel the
mother and daughter to fire their own
dwelling. Money was offered them by Mrs.
Nef, and while they were consulting TO-
gether as to what should be done further,
several neighbors, who had been attracted
by the firing, fortunately arrived, and the
negroes made of.
Its impossible to tell whether any of
them belonged to the army or not, but the
seven brought up before Judge Octocha ev.
identity did not. Proof could only be
brought home to three of them, as only
that number could be recognized by any Of
the parties who saw them on that night
Their names are Fowler Willis, Stephen
johnson, and Jordan Dory.
Of course they were sentenced to be
hung; but the Judge should have added,
drawn and chartered.

The Grand Haven news., 1864-11-23

Lincoln has been reelected President
Of the United States. His first election
could not surprise any one, for he was
wholly unknown; but his re-election af-
Ter four years experience Of his character
and capacity, will not fail to impress the
world withnn very low opinion OF popular
government. So far as the people Of
these States are Interested, the reelection
Of Lincoln is entirely satisfactory. For
us, he is the right man in the right place.
We would not have him defeated, but
gave all the influence If the ,Engmrer 10
him. Our reasons were entirely selfish.
We prefer the management of this war
to remain in the same hands that have d.
rected it for the last four years. We pre-
fer an ignorant, brutal fool as Comnlan-
der-in. Chief Of the enemy than any 9th
er man. He suits us entirely. General
Mcclellan might have given US more
trouble, but we have taken the measure
of Lincoln, and know exactly his worth
lessness. The four years more of war
which bis election now makes sure, void
not have been avoided by the election of
Mcclellan, but might have been conduct
ed with much more ability and given us
much more trouble than Lincoln can pos
sibly command. This reelection, of Lin
coin binds our people still firmer together
aud prevents the division and discord
which tho election of Mcclellan might
have introduced. We know that it means
continued war; and our country will pre-
pare forit. There is no prospect ofpeace,
and il is better for us that we should
know clearly the purpose of the enemy
ID this matter, than 10 have been divided
in opinion by the hopes Of peace the de-
feat of Lincoln would have raised among
our people. Let our authorities begin inn
mediately the work of recognizing the
the army, consolidating the regiments, fl
ling up the ranks, improving The cavalry
and preparing for the spring campaign.---
