THE LOUISVILLE WAR CosTiNur.s.—On
Wednesday last, PRENTICE of the Tour
nal who instigated the mob at the bloody
massacre in August last comes down on HAR
NEY of the Democrat,' in the following gentle
sty le :
"The editor, as we see, misrepresents and
lies and does all in his power to make the
world think that there can be no security
here for life and property. He is as great a
curse to Louisville as God, in the mysterious
dispensations of His
_Providence, ever sent
upon a city. He seems, in his destructive
and pestilent influences, to be a combination
of the lice, the frogs, the flies, the locusts, the
murrain, the boils and blains, the hail, the
dai kness that could be felt, and all the rest
of ten plagues that Heaven in its wrath visi
ted upon Egypt."
On the same morning that the above ap
peared, it was announced in the Louisville
Courier that on the evening before, a most
interesting and pleasant transaction took
place at the Democrat office, where a large
number of the personal and political friends
of Mr. Harney were assembled for the
pose of presenting that gentleman with a tes
timonial of their high estimation of the val
uable services rendered in defence of the
sound principles of civil and religious liber
ty, and in exposing the crimes which have
been the source of incalculable mischief to
the interests of that city.
The testimonial consisted of a very elegant
and costly service of plate, and of a purse
containing five hundred dollars in gold. In
the presentation address the donors say :
"It is idle to invite capital, labor and skill
to Louisville whilst the sad history of. the
past stands unrelieved by any adequate assu
rance that natural and constitAional rights
and immunities shall be respected in the fu
ture. With an abiding confidence that the
deep night of Louisville degradation will ere
long yield to brighter prospects, it is neither
the part of wisdom or justice to conceal the
truth or to deceive by false assurances."
This does not look much like driving Har
ney out of the city. In the meantime the
hostility between the combattarits and their
respective friends increases daily.
