Significance Of the Loan.

In remarking upon the peculiar features
Of the new popular loan, the monetary article
Of the New York Herald we'll says Of the
people:
"If they consider the Union and its bless
ings of no value, of course they will not sub
scribe; if, on the contrary, they care for the
perpetuation of the Union and the privileges
and benefits which it secures, they will sub
scribe to the loan if they have to sell any
other property they may possess. A man
who owns $1,000 worth Of land, or stocks, or
ships, or merchandise. or property OF any de-
scription, could in reality afford to give more
than ten per cent. of the whole for the sake
of maintaining the nation and the govern
ment under which this people have grown SO
rich, so prosperous, so intelligent and free
He is not asked to give, but only to lend his
money, at higher rate OF interest than be
can get for it at any Of the great financial
centers. Ii the rebellion succeed, and the
Union be permanently dissolved, it IS obvi-
GUS that the era of peaceful enterprise, COM
merce and agriculture which the country has
enjoyed for nearly half a century, will give
way for at least half century Of war, during
which trade will be impossible, industry de-
stroyed, agriculture neg lected, property of
all kinds enormously deprecated, real estate
unsaleable, railroads bankrupt, foreign COM
merce arrested. shipping thrown out of en-
ployment, capital scarce, enterprise rare the
very soul and spirit which have made the ma
ton what it is broken and dead. If on the
contrary, the government reassert It's strength
and put down thi7 ftrocious rebellion with a
strong hand, the United States will emerge
from the contest stronger than ever; their
inhabitants will be better acquainted and
more homogeneous, and the great heresies
which have lain so long in the bosom of the
Republic, threatening its peace and endan-
gering its very existence at every recurrence
Of the stated periods Of our government, will
be finally disposed o: and crushed out. 1t
is between these two prospects that every
citizen must decide, when the government,
agent opens his subscription book in his
locality"

Attack at Newport News.

There was strong prospects of an engage
ment Friday night, at Newport News
About t p. m, the rebel steamer Yorktown
ran down to within three miles, and opened
fire upon the federal camps and blockading
squadron, consisting of the Savannah, the
Cumberland, and the gunb boat louisiana
The Yorktown fred 25 shells, one Of which
exploded near the Savannah, and the others
fell considerably short. The guns of the
Cumberland and Savannah could not reach
the Yorktown, but couple of shells from
Savers gun on shore caused her to retire
One Of the shells exploded three quarters of
a mile beyond the steamer. The Yorktown
has been cut down forward and aft by the
removal of her upper cabins, SO as to carry
TWO large pivot guns. She has in addition
six heavy guns on each side. There are no
indications of her having been iron-plated
A Frenchman, who managed to escape
from the Yorktown Thursday, states that
she has been watching for sometime an op-
portunity to run the blockade, and the at
tachment of many of the crew to the rebel
cause was suspected.

We are requested by the Secretary of
State to say that "the laws of the extra ses-
sion were printed and bound up with the
Senate and House Journals, which were sent
to the county clerks for distribution to the
town clerks and members OF the last Legis-
lature." The acts were also published in
the newspapers.

MCCULLoCHs INDIANS The Helena (Ark. J
Herald of August 10, states that thirteen
hundred Indian warrors-Southern allies
had crossed the Arkansas river near Fort
Smith en- route for McCu,ioch's camp. -
Tn csc Indians were armed with rifle, butcher
knife and tomahawk, and had their faces
painted and seemed eager for the fray.

upon examination found no bones broken,

ARREST OF MANY PROMINENT TRAITORS.
The provost marshal of Baltimore arrest

ster, T. Wallis, J. 2. Scott and Ross Winans,
members of the legislature, and +. r. Ho-
ward, editor of the Exchange and sent them
to the hospital for sick patriots at Fort Nc
Henry. The circulation of the Exchange
through the mails having been prohibited by
the government, that paper came out with a
TRADE Of abuse Of the government, and a
threat that it would continue to aid the rebels
During Friday, the following additional
arrests were made :-Mesrs Dennison, Quin-
Ian and DIR Lynch, members OF the legislature
from Baltimore county II. VI. Warfcld DR.
J. II. Thomas. Thomas W. Hall. Jr., editor
of The South. The Maryland legislature
was to meet next Tuesday, when it is sup
posed that further Legislation hostile TO the
federal government was meditated Other ar
rests are probable. All the above were made
pursuant to orders from the war department.
Oh course no official announcement of the ar
rests has been made, but it is believed that
the names given are correct.
Henry May, member OF Congress, Henry
NJ Mortit and W. Ii. Harrison, members Of
the legislature from the city, were also ares
ted. These with the names previousl y given,
complete the ten city delegates. 1t is I'M
derstood that warrants have been issued for

Considerable excitement prevailed in the
streets of Baltimore, Friday, but there was
no outbreak.

taius an announcement by the printers that
as the editor has been arrested, the paper
will be suspended for the present. The Ex-
change will be suspended at an early day by
Gen Dix.
Mayor Browns arrest is supposed to have
been prompted by his ugly behavior in re-
gard to the suspended policemen, and his say
ing that he recognized in the governments

ESCAPE OF HIS REBEL AssAILANT.

ESCAPE OF HIS REBEL ASsAILANT.
F. w. Walker of Brooklyn, the Washing
ton correspondent of the New York Express,
went on Friday afternoon, with the detach-
ment of Col Young's cavalry, on scouting
tour near Port Tobacco, Md. and aided by a
guard of two soldiers, captured an active Sc
cessionist, who was placed in confinement at
house near by the place of arrest. The
guard having necessarily absented themselves
from the prisoners to attend to their horses
and other business, the prisoner, while Mr.
Walker Was taking notes Of the conversation
with him, suddenly drew his knife and
plunged it into the latter's bowels. Then
rushing from the house, the assailan: made
his escape before one Of the guards, who
was outside, could have fair shot at him.
The neighborhood was afterwards searched
for the fugitive, but without success. The
pursuit, however, is not abandoned. Walk
er is lying in dangerous condition, though
receiving proper attention. He had-it is
related by the officer who communicated the
above facts-sathered much valuable infor-
