Whether the late journey Of the Sec
rotary of War to the headquarters OF Ten
Fremont Ia Missouri is to result IN the
displacement Of the latter, seems to re-
main in doubt, though we we're strongly
assured from Washington that the reno
val had been fully resolved on The is
suing of the order, however, is still de-
layed, aud, should Fremont Intercept and
beat the rebel hordcs fleeing before him
10 Southwestern Missouri, the postpone
ment will doubtless be indefinite. But,
whether the commander in the west is or
is not to suffer from the Secretarys visit,
We are joyful in the assurance that the
Secretary has profted by it. The inha-
lation Of prairie breezes seems to have
increased his stamina, if We may judge
from his order to Gen. T. w. Sherman

tion. E...... .-a T..

Secretary Cameron tells Sherman that,
with regard to persons held to service
he is to govern himself by the principles

letters to Gen. Butler on that subject !;
but he adds the rather important and
sensible amplifcation that he Uhe Cen

of any persons, whether fugitiyes from
labor or not, who may offer them to the
national government; you may employ
such persons in such services as they
may be fitted for, either as ordinary en-

morally certain that this Order has been
