Advance Toward Manassas Junction
s.sci,l Dispatch to TIE N. Y. Tribune.

yirginian, recently appointed Paymaster in
the Army, who was here to-day, says that the
outrapes committed upon the persons and proper
Nv of Union men in the Old Dominion, are In
credible. His own father, a man 81 years OF
age, has been imprisoned because Of bis loyalty
10 the Union.
MARSHAL KANE,
There il reason to believe that the seized
telegraphic dispatches will furnish damnlng
amount of evidence against Marshal Kane. whose
arrest this morning, at last, delights oil loyal
men here. A detachment of 500 from Colonel
Lyles 10Th Pennsylvania Regiment made the
arrest, accompanied by Col. Lyle and Gen.
Banks. Kanes commission as Brgadier-General
in the Confederate Army was found IN his coat
pocket and it was believed that he was about
10 leave the city for the purpose Of taking the
6eld. But it is, perhaps, equally probable that
he intended to exercise his functions within the
city, to operate against this.
THE MANASSAS FORTIFICATIONs.
A man who arrived ut Alexandria from Manas-
sas Junction to-day says that the strongest forti-
6cations of the Rebels are about four miles this
side of the Junction, near Union Mills, where
the railroad crosses large stream called Bull
Run, and higher up on the stream, where the
road from Fairfax Courthouse crosses On
Sunday night last most of the disunion troops
that were at those two points moved forward in
the vicinity of Fairfax Court House, and others
took their places, coming from Manassas juno.

THE UNION MEN OF TENNESSEE AND KEN
lucky TO BE HELPED.
We rejoice to believe that the Administration
has determined to reach forth an arm OF
strength to the true and loyal mountaineers
who nhabit Eastern Kentucky and Eastern
Tennessee. A little encouragement, few arms,
an earnest of the fixed resolution of the Govern
ment to come to their aid so soon as is possible,
are all that they wish; and these, we are
assured they will have: first, wherever, as In
Western Virginia and her western ne'ghbors,
the Union men are strong enough to hold their
own, they will receive these assurances, the
feeble-kneed will be strengthened, and the real
majority be apparent
Bye and bye, and We trust before many months,
the loyal citizens of other States, and parts OF
States, who are little less positively in the
majority, will learn that we have Government
disposed and able to protect them. Also, in the
mountain districts Of North Carolina and
Alabama, which border on Kentucky and Ten
nessee there are many loyal men, without doubt,
who will be ready to act when the hour OF de-
Eversuce is plainly at hand, but who dare not
speak out at present, although, even from these
States letters have come asking for arms with
which to meet the rebels. Let our allies in the
South once be assured that the Government is
thoroughly in earnest and determined to do its
whole duty to the country and to every part of
it, and they will take heart and await the
deliverance which is certain to reach them.
THE MESSAGE.
It is presumed now that the Message will take
high and satisfactory ground on the subject of
the war. 1t has yet TO undergo revision, and
some new matter may be introduced, with modi-
fcations of what is at present prepared. No
legislation except what is inevitable for the exi-
gencies of the war will be recommended to the
attention Of Congress.
ANOTHER ADVANCE.
Persons holding confidential relations with the
Administration insist that an immediate advance
will DO ordered toward Manassas Junction. We.
trust that the event will justify these confident
assertions. We happen to know that the
Military Council, of which 80 much has been
said, had no results beyond Cabinet Consulta.

FRUITS OF RUM.
A soldier of one of the city volunteer CON-
panies had his ear bitten of to-dsy'by the keeper
of saloon who had sold him the drug. Win
the War Department, whoever else has juris-
diction interfere to prevent the scenes of drunk
enncss. many of which are most beastly, which
are daily seen in our most public thOroughfares
The soldiers should have their pay kept back or
their liquor ration gagged to a reasonable point
