RELEASE OF AiR. WINAHs.-It will be gratifying
to his many friends to learn that the release of Mr.
Ross Winans was effected yesterday afternoon
Upon hearing OF his arrest, several of bis friends
proceeded to Washington for the purpose of ascer-
tanning the charge against him, and, if possible
obtain bis release. 1t was learned that the charge
was, that he had given aid to Virginia, By furnish
ing grspe-shot, &c. The utter tallacy of this was
at once made apparent to the President when he
directed Gen. Scott to issue order for his uncon-
ditional release. The order Immediately sent
to Fort McHenry, where Mr.. W. was under arrest,
and he was at once released, and returned to his
family. The order to arrest Mr.. Winans was not
issued by General Butler, but came from headquar-
tiers, and was addressed to all commissioned Off
GERS 1t may not be generally known that, al
though Mr.. Winans is an old resident of Baltimore

The Parliamentary elections in Canada are

there are 81 opposition, 49 ministry and II in
dependents; but Is members IRE Jet to be re-
turned, and as their constituents are supposed
to be favorable to the Ministry, the party in
power is conceded to have WON the day. The
issues involved, if we may presume to inter-
rret them from the clamor Of party presses,
is primarily, Of course, on both sides, " the
fate of Canada In this the Grand Trunk
Railroad is involved, as the backbone Of the
contest, all the way from Windsor to Quebec
The Opposition claim That the credit Of the
Province is ruined By Its railroad specu1ations ;
the Ministry seem to concede as much, but
argued that time had not been given them to
develop policy; now that they have won,
the beaten party conclude that another four
years lease has been given them to use up
what little there may be left. There have
been Important changes, Oh both sid2s, in the
election, and the Ministry or Railroad party
have carried pretty much everything along the
Grand Trunk, including the two members
from Toronto; while the opposition made
most headway in the back towns. In the ab-
sence Of George Brown, of Toronto, the old
"c1ear grit" leader, who has been beaten, Mr..
McGee, Of Montreal, will probably be the fore

Three HourS.
On Tuesday the Assistant Treasurer Of the
United States at New York received, at 11511
A. H., telegram from the Secretary Of the
ed States five millions Of dollars On Treasury
notes at sixty days" Our readers will re-
member what day Tuesday Was how the
intense heat took al life and spirit and vigor
out Of the whole human race In this latitude,
and made efforts atthe transaction Of business
mere feeble make-shffts and sembIances Of
work; and yet, although this demand WAS re-
ceiyed only within half an hour of noon, be-
fore o'clock the whole loan Of five millions
was obtained, and three millions two hundred
thousand dollars Of It WAS in the Sub -Trea-
snfy: And this too, without any. other secu-
rtty being offered or asked than the mere AZ
suTance Of the Secretary Of tne Treasury and
his Assistant that the Government needed the
money, and would return 1t with interest
The efgnfacance Of such an occurrence As
this can hardly be overrated. 1t shows that
st this time, when man who has dollar N
his hand that he does not need for the days
emergency, looks at it twice before he lets It
20 on wellgronnded assurance that It Will
return to him ten-that at this time, when
even the best real estate in New York goes
begging for purchasers at prices which would
have been secuted ten yeaIs z. ago, not because Se
because of the timidlty Of capitalists, the
Goyerrment Of the United States Is regarded
s 20 stable, its faith so inEioable Its resources
50 ample, that It can have at an hours warn
ing i've millions Of bullion for the asking,
upon the,udere assurance Of the proper Off
Gers that the money Is needed. 4 stronger

Wise Henry Al seems to be down in Ka-
Eawha county-probably " chasing the stump
tailed steer" a letter in the Richmond Dis.
patch, dated Charleston, Kanawha County,
July 1, says:
"Gen. Henry A Wise reached this town on
Wednesday last, escorted by fine cavalry
company and attended by bis staff Col G.
Z. Tompkins has accomplished miracles in
organizing bis military force, considering the
difficulties he had to contend with. Captain
Patton, commanding at q camp some miles
below here, hos his camp in thorough military
order, az am informed by those who accom-
panied Gen. Wiee in visit on Friday lust.
The state Of public sentiment in this immedl-
ate region is sound.
It is the determination of the General to
against the Confederates. What their force
at Pa1kersburgh is am unable to say. For
tunate1y, Gen. Garnet demands all their atten-
tion at Phillippf, and I have no doubt Par
kelsburg gh is held only as securing them the
railroad, and not as a base Of operations in
this direction. Ii Garnet could get around
and behind Phfujppi, he would !foute them,
and the thing is not impossible. You need
not be surprised to hear OF a brilliant victory
in that quarter at any moment.
+. s.-Since writing the above three moro
traitors have been brought to Gen. Wise.
They are from Rome County, and one (Col. g.
A. Roberte) Was member of the Wheeling
Convention. They will be handed over to the
civil authorities, and indicted for treasop. with
Count under the new ordinance Of the if

IMPORTANT FROM SOUTH WEST
ERIN VIRGINIA.
The Second Kentucky Regiment at
Guyandotte.

From the Cincinnati Gazette, 13th]
On Tuesday last the First and Second Ken
lucky Regiments left this city for ViTgiuia by
river, with orders to halt at Guyandotte, to
rout the Eecessionists who have infested that
peiehbo:tood. Upon neariag the point Of
destination, Col Woodruff Of the Second
Rtgimeat ordered his men to prepare to
n1arch.
The whole regiment was under arms in five
minutes. Five miles below the FL the ree;-
ment was landed. It was ascertalned that
jenkins, with his cavalry, was in the town.
10 prevent his retreat, Capt Brown, with
three companies, vas dispatched to take pos
session tf the bridge leading into the coun.
TT, While Col Woodruff, With seven compa-
pies, took the direct road, marching at double
quick time. jenkins, however, had taken the
alarm and fed with his cavalry before Capt
Brown reached the bridge. He made good
lime, proving by what he accomplished in
this respect, that he is one of the F, F. VS..
Some forty notorious secessionists were
taken prisoners, and a number Of rifles were
seized. An open bridge leading out of the
town, which spans small river, was turned
into guard house. The prisoners were driven
into this, company Of our men being placed
at each entrance. Col. Woodr: f being asked
Low he proposed to prevent IL II from escap-
ipg over the bridge, he remark "a, that if they
wanted tojump oil they could go down seventy
feet without hurting bis feelings.
The office1s we're ordered to quarter them
selves in the ladies' parlor of the hotel The
proprietor Of the latter was glad to be permit
ted 10 take the oath.
AS soon IS it became known that our sol
diers were in the town In force, the stars a1d
stripes which, under the reign Of terror, inau-
gurated by jenkins, had been hid away, were
brought out, and In few hours they t1oated
from nearly every house In town.
The secession prisoners are to be taken to

Especial Correspondence Of tho Chicago Tribune.
WASHINGTON, July II, 1851.
Since the Introduction of teleg1aphic dis
Patches giving the public journals information
Of military affairs, much greater degree Of
secrecy envelopes all military movements.
Tie leading officers Of the line, the staff and
the War tOf1lce arc discrect]v and prudent1y

events are referred to in their hearing, The
time seems to have come in which re.
tieeuce is not only matter Of duty but Of
safety hence reporters, news gatherers
uEd the generally curious are bafIled
at every turn. a large number OF regiments
now on the Virginia side are under orders and
scme Of them are moving onward With ten
days rations. That is the sum of my positive
knowledge; and know that the readers of the
TRIBUNE will draw their own conclusions. To
the wrirer it is plain that the de-i1cd day has
nearly come; a2d that perhaps before this
reaches you the whole division will be in mo-
lion.

blnme than praise, have seen In TINT gentle

IN indication that the Administration desired
an armistice or an accommodation of some
sort with the rebels and Oh this supposition
they have not been choice in their words OF
denunciation. The truth is this, IS have it
from the highest authority: A week before

the President, and said he wished to 80 to
Richmond on private business, and while there
he should, as 3 citizen, enueayor to learn upon
what terms peace could be made Mr Lincoln

not assume 10 speak for nor represent the
President, the Government or the military

gave the required pledge, and went on his

accomplish in the way Of publication, the
President neither knows nor cares. That's all
Of that story.

Congress will make provision tor new term
