Arrest of Edsom n. OIds.

Thousands of loyal hearts throughoutthe land
win be gladdened by the announcement that
the arch-sympathizer Olds is on his way to Fort
Lafayette. This arrest was made by an order
from the War Department, on the evening ofthe
18th. The Gazette of last week gives the fol-
lowing particulars:
The arrest was made last evening at his res
idence in Lancaster by Scott, assisted by Col
was made by the family, and Scott was struck
on the head by poker by some member of it,
If not by Olds himself
The attempt to create rescue party utterly
failed. Olds took it quite hard at first but soon
quieted down when he found it useless to com
bat the force which the officers were prepared TO
use
Here is an extract from speech of olds, which
is as full of treason as anyssouthern rebel could
crowd it:
aIdcno,mce Lincoln as t,raa lie has per-
j'tred his soa0. He may iNprison me but 1 aciR
still cry tyra,n. denounce these acts of OPP
preston as foul acts ofPerury against the Con-
stitutiOn.
And now, fellow democrats. am going to
have a vision, which if it were not a vision
might be treason, but what now say | say in
sleep and am not, therefore, responsible.
Isee Mood in khe ballot Dor Etis JaR. The Pres
ident has issued ms proclamation Tor JOO,uU0

thorizing him to draft them il he gets them, be-
cause these cowardly abolitionists viii not en-
list There is an election this fall and they
want to carry it. They want to draft demo-
Gratis; they will draft them to prevent their yot-
ing. They have the power and can so arrange
it. You viii not be cheated. tell you you
viii not submit to these wrongs. You pW sea
Mood If they attempt to arrest US and take Us
from our families TO support an administration
in its violation Of the Constitution, we will re-
sist even to blood. If the De1,ocrags don't sue

the 6ayonet. [Dr Olds was startled at this last
declaration and attempted the following explana-
tion:1 What / mean is that Lincoin's minions
will surround the baiiSt-bSx this fall, with bay
onets. 10 prevent democrats from voting, and we
viii resist them with the bayonet
Here DR.. Olds addressed himself TO Judge
Ranney, deBouneing him as an abolitionist for
having said In war speech, in Lancaster, on
Wednesday evening. the Esd: aMy opinion Is
now, as italways has been, that as long as there
is man In arms against the laws, that man must

conrresslonnl conventlon.

Representations have been made from Craw-
ford county. that Clyde is an inconvenent place
for them TO attend a Congressional Convention
that the Delegate from Bucyrus cannot reach
there before four o'clock and that they can be
much better suited by having the Convention
held at Monroeville. The latter place they can
reach aud return the same day. They have
therefore requested that the Convention be held
al Monroeville. on the 2d day ofSeptember. A
dispatch was received yesterday from Fremont,
signifying that Sandusky county consents to
the request of Crawford. II seems that the re-
quest is reasonable, and Erie county therefore
also asscnts, We trust that Seneca, Huron and
Ottawa viii do the same and that it may now be
understood that the Congressional Convention
for this District, viii assemble at Monroeville on
the ID day of September next.-Sdn Register.
In regard to the above, we will say that we
have consulted Huron and Seneca counties who
oppose any change in the first arrangement 50
that we publish the call as announced for the
25th. Sandusky county would like to accom-
modate Crawford, but if overruled by the other
counties, she will submit.

From New York,

New York, Aug. l4.-Adyices from Port
Royal state that the Negro Brigade has proved
a failure and has been disbanded. fugitive
contraband at Port Royal stated there were only
2000 rebels at Savannah; he also said the ram
was a mere floating battery of little power with
eight guns, and its officers afraid to go out of
Savannah river. The rebels are known to be
in strong force on James and Damfuski Islands,
New York, Aug. l6-Special to the Post
from Washington says: Gen. Mccall returned
from Richmond with different ideas of the war.
He says that our motto should be instant sub
mission on the part of the rebels, or their exterm-
nation" The General is at the War Depart
ment to-day.
New York, Aug IS.-From an official report
made by Col. John S. Clark Aid de Camp to
Major Gen. Banks, it is shown that the total force
of the rebels engaged in the recent battle near
Cedar Mountain was 249l3, divided as follows:
Infantry 2l,6l3; cavalry, 1890; artillery, 1000
New York, Aug l6.-Archbishop Hughes
delivered most patriotic serrnan yesterday in
st. Patrick's cathedral. After recitng his
course of action in Europe, he called upon the
whole North to come out in its strength, for vol
unteerng TO continue and for draft to be made
He said 100000 men were not enongh-cal out
300 900 more The people should insi@ upon
being drafted, and 80 bring this unnatural strife
to close by strength of might alone"
NEW YoRK, August l9.-There was recently
a village named Donaldsonville, formerly the
capital of Louisiana on the Mississippi, 62 miles
above New Orleans, having become infested
with guerrillas who made a business of firing
upon Union boats even upon transports filed
with sick and wounded, the Captain of the
sloop of war Brooklyn on the 9th inst. sent word
TO have the women and children removed, and
the next day Donaldsonville was obliterated by
fire.
New York, Aug. 20.-The Herald says edi-
torially, "We are inclined to expect that General
Buffers next field of operations will be South
Carolina, and that with the restoration of the
old Flag over the Custom House at Charleston
will before long be under the wholesome discip-
line Of Gen. Butler"

The Washington correspondent Of the N.
Y. Commercial, in speaking Of the battle
Of Cedar Mountain---or Run---says,
To threaten Washington and MARYLAND
by getting iato the valley Of Virgins and
out Of the way Of Pope's army has un.
doubiedly been the object Of the rebels un-
der Jackson during the past two weeks.
The attack on the right Of Pope was in
tended to accomplish this BY defeating
Banks and pushing on through Luray OF
Swift Run Gap into the valley, thus leaving
Pope on this side Of the mouniaips and
the route TO Winchester and beyond open
las they suppose) 10 Maryland and Wash
ington. Failing 10 accomplish this they
have fallen back to hold the Central rail-
road from GordonsviTle TO Staunton, while
large army is sent from Richmond BY the
Danvile and South.Side railroad to Lynch
burg and up into the valley OF Virginia to
Stauntonl BY this move they keep two
lines Of railroads bringing in their supplies
from the most fertile region Of the state,
and at the same time act on the defensive
at all other points except in the valley,
where they infer they have nothing TO con-
tend with on that side of the Blue Ridge.
This new rebel movement is only based on
the ground Of an immense force at Rich
mond, now a question of little or no dis
pute. The large movement ofrebel troops
toward Petersburg and tho refusal Of the
enemy to attack Mcclellan, are certainly
coptirmatory of the plausible character of
these fying rumors which so often briefly
precede the real facts of the case.

A Columbus dispatch says that accord
ing TO report received at the Adjutant Gen
erals office, it is quite apparent that Ohio
will have a much larger number of troops
ready for the field by the lst Of September
than Indiana, although much less has been
said about it. The fact that 10000 rifles
are not enough for Ohio, and that Governor
Dennisen has gone to Washington for
more, is indicative enough without particu-
lars
