Military Arrest Of a Minister.

HARRIsBURe, oct. 2s.-ReE. CHARLES A.
Hay, Pastor Of the Lutheran Church of this
city, was last night arrested by the order
of Maj. Gen. Wool and conveyed this morn
log under guard to Baltimore. The arrest
when it became known caused intense ex-
element and universal condemnation, as
Sir. Hay is known by friend and foe to be
one of our most loyal citizens, aud firm
supporter Of the government. The cause
of the arrest is said to be ON account of a
communication published last week over
his own signature in the Daily Telegraph
of this city, In which the action Of those In
authority at Baltimore was criticised be-
cause of the difficulty experienced by the
frieudsof Union soldiers in procuring that
which appeared to be freely accorded to
rebel sympathiEers, Permission to take
rebelprisoners to their homes and care for
them whilstno such privilege was allowed
unionists. This arrest, it is said was made
without the knowledge or consent of the
Secretary of War, and the assertion lis no
doubt correct. ta 3 y
I A delegation of prominent citizens have
started for Washington for the purpose of
laying the matter before the President and
Secretary of Warandto procure, if possl-i
blefan order for his immediate release.

The Fire at Sd. Louis Wizard.


ST. LOUIS, Oct. 2s.-The Ere on the
river yesterday turned out more disastrous
than at first supposed. The cargo of the
Bacon consisted OF s25 bales Of hemp,
which was mostly 10 the hold when the
fire originated, as is is supposed from a
spark from candle which had q few mo-
meuts priVious been blopn out by men at
work quitting for dinner, -fi-,r s..t
About 200 bales of hemp had been de-
liYered, the balancs was destroyed. Ea
The Estelle and W. H. Russell had been
loading for the Missouri river for several
days aud both boats had considerable
freight aboard. That on the Estelle vas
burned, while the greater portion of the
Russell's win be saved slightly damaged
The Mcdowell and McGill were laid up
boats and had nothing Of consequence on
board.
The total loss amounts to about S175, 600,
as follows:
H. D. Bacon, 5000, cargo $s5, 900;
Russell s., 900, cargo damaged about $1,000;
Estella $4,000, cargo s., 600; MeGill S22,-
600; Mcdowell S2s, 000
The cotton aud hemp burned on the
ievee were worth about S25, 900.
The Bacon was insured for Sl5, GOO, the
Estella for SIC, 900, the MeGill for sis, 600,
the Mcdowell for 500, 900, aud the Russell
for only $1,000.
The Bacon's freight receipts Of her down
trip, amounting to over $4,000, were also
lost.

We have received to.day Nashville papers
Of the 23d inst. The city is completely cut
off from the surrounding country by bands
of rebel guerrillas, and marketing is beyond
the reach Of people in ordinary circum-
stances. Meat can be obtained, but vege-
tablesp butter, cheese, and eggs sell at such
high rates that few can bay them.
A foragtug expedition, sent out on the
2lst, visited the plantation of General d.
s. Donelson, in Sumner county, who is in
the rebel service, and an adjoining farm,
getting as much subsistence as &c could
bring away; indeed, taking everything be-
longing to Gen. Donelson excepting the
overseer aud negroes-consisting of over
three hundred cattle, three bundled sheep,
three hundred hogs, and turkeys, chickens,
wagon loads of corn, oats, &C., which they
took into Nashville perfectly safe.
The people Of Nashville are In Q state of
starvation. Tea Is worth s. pound, aud
little at that; beef 30 cents a pound; COM
mon brown sugar 81 q pound; -four 50 a
barrel. Everything in the grocery line
sells In like proportion. On Thursday an
expedition was sent outOn the Mnrfrees-
boro pike with the purpose of having q
brush with the rebels, reported in that VIZ
cinity. Instead of finding anything, they
were greeted heartily with loud cheets from
200 loyal East Tennesseeons, who had
been secreted in the mountains, and were
making their way to join Negley's forces.
They entered Nashville with the expedi.
ton, and were received with loud cheers of
Welcome.
A spy was caught by the Federal piekets
while attempting to pass through our lines,
and brought back to headquarters On his
person was found roll OF parchment con-
tanning the names of $50 citizens who were
armed and ready, at any moment the Con-
federates might make an attack upon the
city, to rise and assist in driving the Fed
erals from the city.
Gen. Hegley at once seized all the arms
in Nashville and sent the spy to the peni-
tentiary. Gen. Negley, in command Of the
post at Nashville, issued orders. on ti,e 2Ist.
to all the citizens 10 deliver up Immediate
ly all arms aud ammunition TO headqnar-
tiers. Refusal will be deemed evidence of
disloyalty, and those refusing will be Sc
verely punished.
