BALTIMORE, Dec. II.
The Old Point boat brings the report OF
a discovery and prompt suppression by the
military authorities. Of a negro insurrec-

The accounts state the plot was discov-

icer, who said that the negroes of the city
were to be Joined by large bands from the
country, who were to come in armed at
night. He said the sash factory had been
fired by free negro whom he designated.
and who has been arrested. A small
quantity Of arms were found secreted un-
der the floors of the negro cabins. They
were all new and in good condition. In
another negro cabin knives and hatchets
were found secreted. The greatest con.
sternation prevailed. Fsmilies were clos

More About Pope's Victory-Colonel
Nagofin Prisoner.
OTTERvlLLE, Mo-, Dec. %.


l learned yesterday, that among the
prisoners taken by Gen. Pope last Thurs
day, was the notorious Col. Magofin. ol
Georgetown. Mo. About two weeks ago
Col. Msgoffin sent word to the command
ing officer that his wife was dangerously
i'll, and begged to be permitted to see her
ere she died. He was informed that If he
would give his parole as prisoner of war
bis request would be granted. He did so.
and went home, and the next that was
heard of him was that he commanded the
whole force which defended the bridge
that Col. Davis carried by assault; that
be fed with his party, and was not taken
until some time after the rest Of the rebel
force had surrendered, and in consequence
of the darkness of the night he was not
recognized until the next day.
1t seems that Col. Magoffin, having
visited his home and arranged his affairs.
sent messenger recalling hi, parole; but
instead Of surrendering himself as officers
usually do. he left, and before this mes
senger reached Sedalia. was in the rebel
army, and when the fight came on, feeling
that he deserved. and would probably re
ceive, different treatment from those who
had not forfeited all right to be treated
as prisoners Of war, he fought desperate
ly. General Pope refused to accept his
parole, and ordered him to be placed in
confinement until Gen. Halleck decided
what disposition to make of him.
He is one of the most desperate and
unscrupulous marauders in this section,
and it is to be hoped that he will receive
the punishment his crimes and forfeiture
of his parole deserve.

The RlaHr TALK.-The following Re.
solutions have been adopted by the Union
men Of Atehison County, Mo-. and are
being enforced. The consequence is, At
Gibson County has but little trouble with
traitors. 1t is the only eHectual way to
deal with such cattlc: and had the Union
men Of Holt adopted similar plan. long
ago, they would now have things their
own way, and would be free from the pc
riodicsl outbreaks Of treason with which
they have to contend -
l. Resolsed. That any man who has
been in the rebel army and returned to
this County. be warned to leave immedi-
stely. and never again to return, under
penalty of death and also those who
harbor such. shall be liable to the same
pL aishmsnt.
2. Rssolred. That all County officers
who hav> been known to hold any rebel
lious sentiments, or have spoken against
the United States authority, or the an.
tboritv of the STATE Convention, are here
by requested to resign their Offices or
leave the County immediately.
s. Resolved, That all secessionists
who promised to provide support for the
families Of rebel volunteers, be forced to
make good their promises; and it this ''
done. they shall not be disturbed by the
Unionists in the discharge of their sacred
promises.
4. Resolved. That no man shall Gs

wish to leave the State.
