The indispensable materials he had order
ed were withheld through fear that he wod

for by tho government. Thus was bc on all

rival AZ ST. Louis werc disbauded but he
succeeded in getting together at laet an Of.
rective force Of fifty thoueaud men, with
whom, properly supported from Washing
ton, he doubtless could have gone forward
TO crush out the enemy; hut at this import
ant cr.sis We have tho announcement that
Fremont ie removed Com Grant, an able
and experienced officer, succeeds him.
PS. Since the above was put in type
we have rumors that Fremont is not yet re-
moved, although likely TO bo. 1t has been
said that Secretary Cameron was the friend
Of Gen. Fremont, hut any one who reads
the order Of that officer, given through Gen
Thomls to Fremont, must have very indis-
tict perceptions of fact, If they can place
any confidence in the story. As large pro-
portion of tue Cabinet officers seem satisfied
according to newspaper reports, that the
removal OF Fremont ia necessary to hor-
mouous and an energetic prosecution of the
war, IN the Western Department, why in
Gods nnnlc let il he done.

Overland Expedition.

Our last advccs from California report
military movement on foot which, when TAX
en- in connection with the contemplated Eu-
yopCau intervention in the affairs of Mexico
appears of the utmost moment Gen. sum
ncg, i, is stated, is about TO march an army
Of $500 men, 1000 of which are regular g.,
overland TO III Pnso, with a view Of captur-
ias a.l the forts and military stations on the
Western boundary of Texas, from Fort Yu-
ma TO Fort Irgc,
The proposed expedition of Gen. Sumner
and his army, then is to effect the follow
inG important objects;
!, Tho securing of Arizona and New
Mexico 70 the Federal Gpg. no matter what
the final issue OF this couiljct.
?, The rcpossessiou of all the military
Pus's seized by the rebels, extending from
I'll Paso 10 the Gulf of Mexico.
3. The actual possess ION of the boundary
line between Texas and Mexico, To prevent
cotton being sent overland 20 the latter
count y, aud to avoid complications with
the intervening powers growing ont of the
possible lmoads Of sa%avcs on the McNican
territory.
4. Pacin the Government agaia in COM
mm.cahon with the UmoE-lovmg German
population of Wcstcn Texas, who. we have
reason to believe, are wiling TO take up
/ AIMS for the old flag, and help to reasscrt
I the authority Of the Federal Cnioa in tie

1t VIII be seen from the above that, in-
( pormnt as is tho great naval expedition a.
bout 10 sail South, that Of Gen. Sumner is
hardly less so Unloss there is some sad
( bgmdcring he cannot fail to succeed as the
military posts are now held hyG few uua,m.

been taken East, and no force at the com.

Warsaw, and would cross the river on
Saturday. Osceola, where Price is reported
to be, is about twenty miles distant from
Warsaw. If we are correctly informed,
therefore. as to the position and the inten-
ton OF tho rebel commander to make stand,
we may look hourly for u report Of a de-
c.sivc battle. The Union army is about
thiyty-dve thousand strong, well equipped

Fact.

The Cincinnati Commercial asserts a fact
when it says:
The Montgomery conspirators do not look
alone to the South; they find great encourage
ment in the North. When Davis declared
his purpose, as in speeches from Vicksburg to
Montgomery, that if war come, it should be
carried into the North, and suggested the dez-
truction of Northern cities, thereby promising
by implication that they should be sacked
and burnt-does any one suppose that he de-
pended upon the strength of the secessionists
I alone ? He certainly did not He believes,
and he has right to do so, from the tone ol
such papers as the Cincinnati Enquirer, that
he would find as many tories in the North, as
the British found in South Carolina in the
/ Revolutionary war. When there are newspa
pers and persons of more or less prominence
all over the North. crying aloud and sparing
not, that every demand made by the seces
sionists must be yielded, the effect IS to increase
/ the extent of those demands, and the insolenco
of the spirit in which they are made"
