Franklin, La. (Louisiana, United States) (search for this): article 1
La., April 21. --New Orleans advices, of the 16th, confirm the report of the destruction of the steamers Queen of the West and Diana, lately captured by the Confederates. The former got aground in Grand Lake, when a Yankee fleet approached and a fierce bombardment ensued. A shell from the Calhoun exploded on the Queen's deck, igniting a quantity of powder, which communicated with her magazine and caused an explosion. The Diana is reported to have been burnt by the rebels. One hundred and thirty-six prisoners, including seven commissioned officers, three surgeons, and eight of the crew of the Queen of the West, arrived at New Orleans on the 15th. Among them is Capt. Turner, commanding the fleet, who was slightly wounded in the ankle, and is now at St. James Hospital. The prisoners report 45 of the crew missing, supposed to be drowned or killed. A dispatch from Berwick's Bay, 15th, reports the Yankees beyond Franklin, La. Their forces are landing and marching on.

iron-clads cannot be made impregnable. The Brooks ball, which the Yankees have falsely ascribed to English manufacture, has riddled the boasted monsters like selves, and the lesson will not be lost either upon them or Europe. The construction of iron-covered ships has been going on rapidly and steadily in both England and France, and we believe it remains an open question in both those countries whether any minutes could be constructed which would perforate heavy iron sheathing. To Lieutenant Brooks belongs the honor of solving this problem, and we may expect the solution to have its effect upon naval architecture throughout the world. Whilst iron clad ships may be useful for harbor defence, it is clear that they are not, even upon smooth water, invulnerable, whilst at sea the slightest gale would send them to the water. For operations upon the ocean such a ship as the Alabama is worth a dozen iron-clads. The sea fights will have to be fought in the old way, by timbers and hear

Lincoln (search for this): article 10
A Picture of Lincoln drawn from an old Gallery. --Edmund Burke, while Great Britain was prosecuting the war against the American colonies, wrote the following to the Sheriffs of Bristol: "The poorest being that crawls on earth, contending to save himself from injustice and oppression, is an object respectable to God and man. But I cannot conceive any existence under heaven (which in the depths of its wisdom tolerates all sorts of things,) that is more truly odious than an impotent, helpless creature, without civil wisdom or military skill; without a consciousness of any qualification for power; calling for battles which he is not to fight; contending for a violent dominion be can never exercise, and satisfied to be himself miserable in order to make others wretched."
