Maj. Gen. Pillow issues two proclamations in

" Not a Moment too Soon.

The telegraph informs us that the arrest oil
Marshal Kane in Baltimore, and the appoint
ment of Marshal Kinley to take into his own
hands the charge of keeping the peace of that
city was not s. made a moment too soon ~
and the rest Of the dispatch vindicates the cleo
trio assertion
There can remain no longer a question but
that the Rebels South have been in constant
communication with these thinly dsgu iscd
traitors in Baltimore, receiving from them
information, if not more substantial aid and
comfort and expecting to see at an early mo-
ment the Federal authority overthrow in
Maryland, and the Flag of the Union again
trodden under the feet Of Rebels in the Monu.
mental City.
1t is Only a few days since one Of the secess-
ion sheets in that city boastngly declared that
the Government would find the so-called Union
victory at the late election in that State any
thing but triumph of men devoted to the IN
ION and such treason as this coup d. etat Of
Gen. Banks has unearthed, shows clearly that
rebellion in Maryland has not ceased for an
hour to plot in darkness the subverson of that
order that publicly it hypocrilicslly pretended
to respect and strengthens tho suspicion that
the pretended loyalty that triumphed at the
election, was only delusion and a snare, and
suffered TO occur as - blind the more eiftc-
tually to divert attention from the secret mach
nations OF the traitors. Gen. Banks has now
uncovered this nest of rebellion, and he will not
dlsappelnt the universal demand of truly loyal
men If no utterly destroys the whole Internal
brood, whether Matched or unmatched It is
AID the Administration approved his course,
and that is we'll enough but tho people ap-
prove it, which is of infinitely moro consequence.
10 ahead, Gen. Banks. Treason cannot be
suppressed anywhere " a moment too soon."

The Journal dss Dsbats of the 2Sth Of September
has lengthy article on the state of affairs in the

America seems thus condemned to undergo severe
trials; but notwithstanding one thing appears to US
certain. Not only will the American nation not
perish, whatever may be the result of the struggle
or the horrors through which she may have to pass.
Not long hence North America will appear on the
theatre stronger than ever because there is no other
race in the world having so much vitality. Neither
IS there any having so many resources. She pos
sesses IN superior degree the majority Of the quail
tiles which cause the grandeur OF nations to sur
viYe the most threatning storms. In ten years
there viii possibly be another North America
very probably the same-but this other America
viii weigh heavily in the balance Of nations, just
as France, few years after the horrors of 1898
found herself more powerful than ever, despite Of
the sinister predictions which announced that the
revolution was the cause Of her irrevocable de-
cadence. r
