FREMONT'S PROCLAMATION.
ITS RECEPTION AT ST. LOUIE.

ITS RECEPTION AT ST. LOUIS.
 The St. Louis Republican, the leading Demo- cratic paper of that city and the West, has the following endorsement of Gen. Fremont's procla- nation:
 The proclamation of Major-General Fremont, which appears in another column. is the most important document which has yet appeared in She progress ofthe war. Let it be read with care ful consideration by every citizen. The prompt visiting of the extremest penalties of martial law upon all rebels within the established military lines the confscation of the property of per sons who shall take up arms against the govern ment, and the declaration of absolute freedom to the slaves of all such persons the extreme pen aties to be visited on the bridge-burners, rail road and telegraph destroyers, reasonable cor respondence and libels, and peace destroyers of all kinds, are measures of the most extraordinary stringency; but the wisdom of their promulga- tien by the supreme officer in the army of the West we are confident will be conceded by eye- ry just and loyal citizen.
 There is no longer any middle ground or room for traitors where the lawful government has sway. General Fremont strikes boldly and fear lsssly. The consolidated patriotism and the boundless resources of the great Northwest are at his back. Let every faithful man, by word and deed, give aid and encouragement to this grand movement for the re-establishment of the whole people.

THE NAVAL engagement at Hatteras, with it's important results, says the Tribune, continues te form the chief topic of conversation among all classes. The reported loss of the Harriet Lane, which was the only unfortunate feature in the affair, now appears to be incorrect she is again afoat, uninjured. The Minnesota with 674 prisoners arrived at New York on Monday. The Rebels on board of her are living witnesses to the unhappy state of things among Southern soldiers; they are ragged and unclean in person, and appear now to be enjoying the first hours of mental tranquility they have known for long time. They will probably be put under guard at Bedloe's Island, where there are ample ac, comodations for many more than these, but this point is not definitely settled.
