The injustice and folly of most of the
censure castup the Government because
it does rot move faster IN prosecuting the
war against the rebels, are easily seen by
those who look. We have heretofore
spoken generally Of the difficulties the
authorities have TO contend with in conse-
quence of the presence of the traitors still
left in the service, who disguise their pur-
poses rs long as possible, with the view
Of playing into the hands of the rebels to
the last moment The following cases
illustrate this point; rr
Whenit was decided to employ troops
for the defense Of the Capital, Staff Off
GERS, after remaining lorg enough in the
War Department to acquire as much
knowledge rs possible of the details, re-
signed to carry that knowledge into the
camp of The enemy. =
When ~ Norfolk Navy Yard was
found 10 be in danger. orders were des-
patched from the Navy Department to
have all vessels taken out. Officers st
at the Y ard, secretly sympathizing with
seces ion, first prevented the execution of
the orders, on the ground that it was not
necessary, and then resigned. The
Navy Department on being apprised of
this, instantly sent Commodore Paulding
down o save the property. But it was
then too late. All that could then be
doue was to destroy it, 10 prevent its fall
| ing into he hands Of secessionists, and
that he did tfiecually,
! When the Seventh Regiment and the
Massachusetts troops arrived at Annapo-
| lie, he Capital was almost defenceless.
A Quarermaster was ordered to SO to
/ Annapolis from Washington, to hasten
their march. He went, as was supposed,
to execute his mission, but instead OF
bringing in the dlsired reinforcements, he
cody, at his leisure, brought in his resig-
nation.
When the river steamboats, were seized
at washington for Government use, they
were sent round 70 the Navy Yard to be
armed for service. Immedistly on their
arrival every officer in The Yard but enc
resigned in order to stop the work.
These are but few pages out CT
whole volume of unwrilten history. At
every step, for while, the Government
was clogged and CRIPPLED by traitors, who
drew their pay and Effected loyalty SO long
as nothing was required Of them, but who.
at the critical moment when their services
were wanted, deserted 10 the enemy.

The affairs of The Government are con-

.u.. Wednesday 5 Dispatches.
The Government at Washington con-
tinues 10 act vigorously. 1t beirg under
stood that the rebel states lave made
p ffers to purchase vessels in England
and o;her European countries, the admin
istration has notified the diplomatic corps
that no such purchase will be respected,
no matter under what flag the vessels may
sail. The diplomatic corps have been al
so notified that if any commissioner, or
minister, from the seeded states be re-
ceived by any European Power, the Gov
ernment will not hesitate to break off all
diplomatic relations with such power
will recall the United States minister at
such Court, and will dismiss the repre- SEN
tative of that power resident in Washing
on. 1t is thus evident that our Govern
ment is determined to deal with the south
ern confederacy in every way as rebel
lious portion Of this republic. At Balti-
more two Philadelphia companies seized
one thousand five hundred muskets and
'our thousand pixies, stored in an unoccu-
pied house, and took them to Ft NcHen~
ry. Information was received at tie war
department that some of the rebels were
going to western Virginia to subdue the
Unionists. Additional force is ordered
for the blockade at Charleston. The vote
on secession in Virginia was the merest
farce-all the rebels from the south beir g
permitted to vote. The secession sympa.
lhizers Of southern Indiana are causing
some trouble, and several have been no.
tifed to either dry up or leave. Gems
Harvey and Pr zee, the latter command
ing the Missouri state forces, have issued
joint manifesto to the people, declaring
a common object, that of restoring peace
and good order, end requiring sutordina'
ton to the laws of the General and State
governments. 1t is understood tba. Gen.
Price will disband all the state forces and
take prompt and effective measures to in
sure full protection to all classes Of citi-
ztns. A complaints of violence or ap-
prehensions are hereafter TO be made to
hi H. and if be fails to afford the necesa-
~ relief the United States forces will be
used. The southern confederacy has es-
tablished a blockade at Memphis, pro
hibiling the passage of upward bound
boats. w. II. Russell, the correspondent
Of the London Times, arrived al NV Or
leans on the 21st inst. Thee is a rumor
that as soon as hostilities are commenced
by the government in the direction Of Nor
folk and Richmond, the rebel forces at
Harper's Ferry will march into Pennsyl-
vania. Northern people are prohibited
from travelling in Virginia, under pains
of arrest and imprisonment. The Secre-
tary of State has given notice TO Mexico
and other states that the Monroe doctrine
will be carried out to the letter, and that
nothing in the shape of foreign interven,
ton will be tolerated or submitted to for
a single hour.
