JOHN C. BRECKINRIDGE.-This member of
that "small patriot band" has at last written
letter to his late Kentucky constituents, re-
signing his seat in the Senate of the United
States, and announces his intention of ex-
changing his seat in that body for the musket
of a soldier, and says that the Union is dis
solved, and the United States no longer exist.
If this be the case, why did he occupy his
seat as Senator and draw his pay after eleven
States had Seceeded, and after war had been
declared and number of battles had been
fought? Was it not the better to enable him
to carry out his reasonable designs in respect
TO the secession of Kentucky? We also see
it stated that Mr.. Breckinridge arrived at Rich
mond on the 2lst October-ssthe large crowd
extending most enthusiastic welcome to
him, and that Mr.. B. made an appropriate
speech to the hearty greetings of the multi
tude." So then this traitor has at last gone
over to his tsouthern brethern," and received
q ssmost enthusiastic welcome'' because of his
treason against the government of the United
States. The day may not be far distant, how
ever, when he will receive his just reward

REMOVAL OF RRIsoNERs.-The political pris-
oners, who have been confined at Fort Lafay-
cite, have been removed to Fort Morgan, in
Boston harbor. The object Of the removal
was to secure the safety of the prisoners, and
to protect the officers in charge from being
constantly annoyed by persons for permission
to sssee the crowd" Fort Morgan is not near
so accessible from Boston as Fort Lafayette is
from New York, and therefore the change in
all respects is considered good one. There
were one hundred and nine prisoners at La.
fayette at tho time tho removal took place
several of whom were released.

THE REBELS IN WESTERN VIRGINIA.-A SOL
dier OF the 25th Ohio, in a letter dated Cheat
Mountain Summit, Oct. 22nd, says:
= ssY esterday morning big negro came run
ming into our camp, waving white handker-
chief over his head. He reports the rebels in
camp to be in a suffering condition, without
clothes and very little to eat-starving and
freezing. He says there is one Louisiana reg
iment in camp, of 500 men, and they have re.
solved to go homo. He estimates the number
IN the rebel camp at 5000. Very many have
died, and much sickness prevails. He says
after the engagement we had with them they
reported that they killed eighteen hundred of
our men. The truth is we left not man,
dead or wounded, on the field, and only two
were buried by the way.
