Cnpture Of the "Fannr.n

By all accounts the capture of the steamer
Fanny by the rebels was most disgraceful
affair to all but her captors. Whether the
principal fault was in the treachery of the
Captain, or in the cowardice of Captain Harte
and the Indiana troops that were on board,
it is difficult to determine; but enough is
known to make it evident chat the vessel and
cargo were thrown away in such manner
that nothing but extreme treachery or alb
ject cowsrdice can be admitted to account
for the occurrence. A correspondent Of the
New York Tribune says:
"The Captain, whose written and verbal
statements are so conflicting and unsatisfac-
tory that General Mansfield has ordered him
and the crew to be detained, says that with
his late crew, composed of men from the
Coast Guard, the rebel steamers might
have been kept at bay. According to that
statement, the Indianians, under Captain
(Quartermaster) Harte, behaved cowardly:
refused to throw over the guns or ammuni.

they were about to fall, would hang them fol

Loyalty Of the North CarOIInians-HOw
tho UnIsn Mea are maltreated.
A correspondent writes to the New York
Tribune, under date of September 2s, from
Camp Wool, Hatteras Inlet, as follows;
The families have all abandoned their
homes and the soldiers who are there live in
constant expectation of a fight with US.
Since these forts were taken, troops have
been forwarded from Virginia to Beaufort,
Newburn and other points.
When the news came that Fort Hatteras
was taken by the United States, a serious
turn was given to the popular mind, and some
were in favor of having the State, by it's
Legislature, resolve itself back into the
Union. Hereupon sides were taken, and
blows were struck. The Secessionists had
all the arms, and they, of course, had the
upper hand. One man declared he was a
Union man, and not ashamed to confess it."
At this expression he was taken into shop,
his nose put into vice, and screwed nearly
out of his head, and the lips which uttered
the sentiment were treated in the same way,
and both nearly pulled ont Of the face.
A lady just from Washington, N. O., tells
me that about the same time company of
men we're assembled Il store and extolling
the Secession flag, when an old Revolution
ary soldier (the only one known to be living
in North Carolina) interfered, and asked the
Secessionists if they knew how much the
old Stars and Stripes cost? He said he did,
for be fought under them, and saw them
when first raised, and that he would never
recognize another. At this he was taken,
bis head half shaved, a plaster put on, and
the plaster covered with tar, and the tar
with feathers, and then he was hurled into
the street Who would think that a soldier
of Washington would ever be subjected to
such treatment in the land where Washing

he were god2 How long will Americans

Dennison, en- route for Camp Dick Robinson.
We have rarely seen finer body of men than
compose this company. The horses, too, are

promptly prepared by our citizens for the

from the manner in which the men disposed
of it.

W. N. HALDBMAN OUT IN A CARD.-The
Louisville Journal furnishes the intelligence
that Haldeman, the late editor, has COM
menced card writing for a Southern firm.
Read what Prentice says:
W. N. Haldeman man, proprietor of
the late Louisville Courier has published in
the Nashville Union long card, to which
DR.. 7. s. Bell makes an utterly destructive
reply in our paper of to-day Mr.. Hade
mans card is a thing most disgraceful to him
in all respects. tbs ungrateful, hypocr;tical,
ard scandAlously false. 1t involves false inn
putatons upon men who have recently
labored day and night to serve him.
Mr.. Haldeman holds out in his card the
promise of renewing the publication of the
Courier, when his friends, the Confederate
troops, shall have conquered Louisville and
Kentucky, and established the Confederate
Government over us There is certainly good
reason to think that he will not come back to
raise the Courier from the dead or to do any
thing else here until the United States Gov
eminent ehall cease to have any operation
among us. Not only have all the printing
materials of his late paper been seized by
his creditors, but it is found that he, as late
Surveyor of the Customs in Louisville, con

inasmuch as the punishment of this crime
is, under the Sub b-treasury Law of the United

Senator McDougail, of California, made
patriotic speech at the Union meeting held
at U tica, New York, last week. He said;
This is no common battle in which we are
engaged The Southern idea is to have
slaves to maintain the whites in war and
COUNSEL so that all the white men may go to
war; unless they are too DID, and then they
take them for counsel. This explains the
strange fact that they, with eight millions,
have been able to bring superior forces into
the field to ours-though we are twenty mill
lions. That will not do. We must over
power them by numbers. The first thing, to
that end, is to secure union of all men who
love the Republic.

A correspondent Of the Missouri Democrat
writing from jefferson City, is doing the
Fremonts--pere, mere and famille-in the way
they serve up royal personages in the polite
countries of Europe. The whole thing has
quite foreign look. Jessie, doubtless in
the Colors of her favorite brigade, chats gaily
with the officers; Miss Lilly, in the costume
of a file du regiment entertains the younger
heroes of no particular battle field, while the
little ones of the msnose toddle around in
soldier clothes like intantile Napoleons.
THE DEPARTURE.
At break of day all was hustle and activity
in the camps. Regiments had been leaving
all night and were still striking their tents
and moving off In the direction of the Sc
dalia road. General Fremont, with his staff
and body guard, has been encsmped on an
eminence, about mile south of the city and
partly overlooking it. From early morning
this had been the scene of preparation and
hustle. The tents we're struck, carriages
and baggage wagons disputed the passage at
every step. Around the base of the hill the
body guard we're equipping and mounting
theiv horses Brilliant staff officers rushed
here and there, abbering incomprehensible
French to bewildered Americans. The
General himself could be seen moving from
place to place with handful of papers and
followed by a cloud of Oolonels and lesser
lights asking, for posting ORDERS or in most
cases for explanations of orders.
On the brow of the hill stood Mrs. Ere.

Thinking Of Mapnssns.

A correspondent of the New York Tribune,
writing from Washington, speaking of the
withdrawal Of the Confederate troops from
the immediate vicinity of Washington, and
the advance of the Federal army, says:
"a contest may very possibly take place
close upon Manassas, as before, but by no
means under the same conditions, nor prob
ably, upon the same space. But, since we
have set foot upon the fields of Falls Church,
whence we got our first faint glimpse in nine
weeks of the bills beyond Bull Run, we are
all thinking of Manassas, and of very little
besides Manassas, with an earnestness far
deeper and of far more meaning than the
fresh enthusiasm of the earlier advance"
To all appearances just now, talking of
Manassas is nearly all that will be done
about it.
