TIE FIRST QUESTION.

The first question asked every
morning upon the receipt of the
daily pnpers is--''ls Fremont re.
moved?" II is wonderful what
m excitement the rumor OF his
removal has created in the West.
IL shows what a strong hold he
has in the hearts and the conf
dence of the people. No other
man on the continent would have
met with such a welcome in the
Mississippi valley. We can not
believe he will be removed and
think the people may rest easy on
that score. He is now at the
mead OF MS army in not pursuit
.. Prize.

JEFFERSON CRY, Oct. 7.-Gens. Fremont
and McEinstry left for the West this at-
ternoon.
tits stated here that Gen. Wool is now
on his way TO st. Louis, and is to be fol-
lowed by 10000 troops, half of whom are
to stop At Cincinnati aud 90 into Ken
lucky, while the other half are to enter
intn active operations in Missouri, and
supply the place Of Gen. FrcmOnts army.
Information has been received here that
about three weeks ago slave insurrcrtiun
was attempted inJasper county; that about
thirty-fvc of the negroes were killed, and
IA number of others were 10 be hanged
The discovery Of the plot proved thNt the
instruction was widespread, and that the
slaves intended to murder their masters
and perpGtrutc all manner or bnrbarities
y report is current here that 1000 reb-
els are 26 miles from Hermann, marching
towards tIu dusconade river, with the in
tentiOn of burning the railroad bridge
across that stream. These rebels are said
to be headed by Miskel johnson.
1t is Gen. FremOnts intention to follow
Price rapidly aud continuously. After
leaving Sedalia he will march from 30 to
40 miles day, according to the condition
of the road, aud if necessary he will enter
Arkansas. He says he does not want any
more men, that he has sufficient force to go
anywhere through the South. He seems
to have entire confidence in his army and
officers, and the soldiers repose great trust
in him.
Information having been received here
that MeCulloch's forces were on the South
bank of the 0sage river few days since.
with the design of cutting off Fremont's
communication with St. Louis, and then
marching on that city.
Strong and experienced scouting parties
have been sent out to scourthe whole low

Dispatches from Washington this oven

road is TO he Put in order at once, between
Hnrper's Ferry and Cumberland, the Gov
ernment having guaranteed protection.
THIS is what ought to be done, and it be-
ing practicable, we nre disposed to credit
the report. The West, and indeed the
whole of the loynl States, need this great
lthoroughfare. 1t is important that tile
channels Of communication between pro-
ducers and consumers should he as cx-
tensive as possible, so that freights may
he kept down. The Baltimore & Ohio
Railroad Company have now, lying idle,
two thousand freight cars and two hun
dred locomotives, and the value of these
to the commerce of the West, if added to
our p. esent transportation facilities, can
not be too highly estimated. We have
heretofore called attention to the high
rites of freight established-and still high
er figures iuprospect. There is no escape
from this difficulty except by increasing
transportation, facilities aud there is no
opportunity for expansion in this direction
unless the Baltimore aud Ohio road is
brought into use. II is to be hoped, there
fore, that the Government will take this
matter promptly in hand.
