FROM MLEHONRI.

Two companies Of cavalry under Maj. Hol-
denman Of the lst Kansas regiment left Lex
ington on reconnotering expedition on the
night Of the 9th inst, which resulted in the
arrest Of Capt. Whitney, Joe Shelby and sew
eral other notorious rebel desperadoes, and
the capture of large lot of horses, mules.

Mulligans command. A considerable guam
tity of boots and shoes and other articles tax.
en- from the steamer Sunshine by the rebels,
some time since, were all turned over to the
federal troops at Lexington.
Col. Dietzler of the lst Kansas regiment
in command at Lexington, announces by
general order that rebel assassins lurk in am
bush and fire upon soldiers. He has there
fore ordered to be arrested large number of
wealthy and influential secessonists who gave
aid and comfort to Prices army. and whom
he holds responsible for the good behavior Of
their hirelings, and says the assassination of
one man of his command in this manner will
be followed by the shooting or hanging of
these wealthy rebels.
Several secessionists in st. Louis recently
assessed for the benefit of the southwestern
fugitives by order Of Gen. Halleck, having
failed to pay their assessments, their property
has been seized within day or two past, un-

TREASON IN HIGH PLACES.
If the war for the Union fail its failure
will probably be caused more by treason than
by force Of arms There is every reason to
believe that the success OF the rebellion hith-
cIto has been secured almost wholly by trea-
sonable communications from trusted men in
our own ranks or employed in the manage
meut Of military affairs. Many such oommu-
nicatious are known TO have been made, and
many more are suspected 10 have been made,
ever since the beginning of the war. Again
and again the Cuniederates have boasted Of
their previous knowledge of all the move
ments Of our armies, and many facts have
proved their boasts true. We have Just learn
ed most astonishing circumstance, which
may well make every patriots heart sink in
dismay, and almost in despair. An officer of
high character has informed US that, to his
knowledge, on the day when the Pensacola
ran the gauntlet of the rebel batteries, and
before the usual hour for communicating the
countersign OF the day to our pckets opposite
one Of these batteries, the rebel pckets boast
fully shouted the correct eountersign across
the river, adding, THE Pensacola is coming
down tonight What does this fact prove
1t proves that the countersigns which are sent
from the War Department to our camps, are
made known to the rebels by traitors in con-
identa positions in or near that Department.
and that other information in reference TO con
templated movements Of our naval forces is
likewise communicated to the enemy What
is to be the end of all this Can there not
be some publication of the departments, so as
to save our country from the destruction that
must otherwise result from such fearful treach-
cry The depressing fact is known that pre-
/ ference for the Southern rebellion, or base
corruption, has led officers of government to
carry on, unsuspeeted correspondence with
/ the rebels to an extent unknown and undis-
coverable. Shall no effort be made to un-
mask these vile traitors; If lfdiscovered, shal
we swear them and let them GO or shall
we rather hang them to the first lamp post
If ever crime deserved summary and extreme
punishment, surely such base betrayal o
confidence as is shown by such acts should
be most promptly and severely visited witt
the laws heaviest penalties. Whether prompt
ed by love of the rebellion, or by brlbes OF
fered by the enemy, or by a mercenary wisl
to prolong the war, and profit by plunderinl
the Government and the poor soldiers, sucl
ltreason-aggravated a thousand fold by tn
confidence reposed in the Endorsement
everlasting shame and contempt, and shoul'
J receive such punshment--torture even-a
, will make the boldest forever shrink from fol
lowing the.bas example.

~ The article which we publish to-day
from the Boston Journal on the stamp tax on
newspapers is, in our view, sensible and to
the point. A friend at our elbow suggests
that the proposed tax would be onerous on
the people unless our forces can go ahead, -
and give the newspapers an opportunity to
report some of those glorious victories -
which have so long been promised. The
one in Kentucky, he says, is good so far as it
goes and he is perfectly willing to pay tax
on his newspapers il the papers can only show
that it is properly expended on the rebels.

MASON ND SLIDELL.

The suspense in relation to the possible
loss of the rebel commissioners on board the
steamer Rnaido, in the storm which prevail
ed at the time Of its sailing, is at last at an
end, and we have reliable information OF their
safe arrival at Bermuda on board the Rindido,
which experienced very severe weather on its
passage and lost two Of her boats. No pub
lie ovation was made to Mason and Slidell at
Bermuda and very little attention was paid
to them save an invitation to dine with Ad
miral Milne, whose hospitality was extended
to them, in company with Commander Hew-
EFT, in accordance with his universal custom
to commanders of English war vessels. A
large crowd assembled at the dock on the
landing of the commissioners, drawn thither
through a curiosity to see the men who had
caused such heartburnings between this coun-
try and England. The report of their arriv-
al says that :" had they arrived in any other
vessel than British man-oi-war, they would
have been allowed to move along unnoticed.' -

crowd or slightest mark of public enthusiasm

Another PAPER IN NERMoNr.-We have

entitled " The Vermont Gazette" the public
alton Of which is soon to be commenced at
St. Albans, under the editorial management of
Il, Marvin Smaley L. NJ. Snalley and Henry
A. Cutler, publishers. In the announcement
before us the editor says that " "discarding
any former party connections he will main
tain and conduct, to the best Of his ability,
a firm, unAinching onion journal, devoted to
human freedom and progress, and supporting
this Administration in redeeuing the Nation
from the predictions and sneering charges Of
Aristoeraeies and Oligarchies.
Recently as editor of the Burlington Sen
Gpei, Mr. smalley evinced tact in the man
agement OF public journal which is sutii'
cient guarantee for his ability in his new un'
dertakng. We certainly wish him well, and
that he may meet with the encouragement his
enterprise deserves, though of the absolute
necessity of journal such as he proposes to
issue, we are not so clearly satisfied.

TIE MORTAR FLEET.

1 r. o I h T. n
Another naval expedition, nearly ready to
sail, is Capt. Porters mortar fleet. compris-
ing twenty-six vessels, each carrying fifteen
or thirteen inch mortars. and armed, in addi-
tion, with one or two of the largest caliber OF
1ifed guns. II will be ready to sail within
fortnight Several Of the boats are said to
have sailed, and are supposed 20 have been
lJaned to Gen. Burnside, temporarily, to re-
Join the other mortar boats when they start
flr their destination Whether some place
of rendezvous is appointed for the h1tilla,
whether in separate divisions they are to Join
some other secret expedition, or whether they
will act separately upon different points of
the southern coast, simultaneously, there are
NJ means Of knowing. 1t is coniectured that
Ericssons iron-cad battery, which will be
completed by the first Of February, and that
nearly finished at Philadelphia will accompa-
ny the mortar fleet. One of the newspaper
prophets makes Charleston the destination of
the fleet, to cooperate with the advance Of
the land from Port Royal, to retake posses
sion of the government forts and property in
the harbor and city of Charleston That
would be a satisfactory operation. Gen. An
derson has carefully preserved the Union flag
which was lowered from Sumter last spring,
and oherishes the hope that he may be ena-
bled to accompany the expedition and again
raise the standard on the very stan from
which he reluctantly lowered it.
There is also talk of another naval expedi-
tion, to be commanded by Com. Farragut,
and to consist of the Richmond, Pensacola and
other large steam frigates, with large mum
Der OF gunboats. Whether this is to be con-
nected with the mortar feet or not is not
known. 1t is probable that it will not be
ready to move till some weeks later.
The postal reform bill introduced by Mr.
Coliax, now pending in the House, propose,
tax of three cents each on all telegraphit
messages except those on business with tn,
government, or of the company owning the
line, and excepting, also, news and Congress
sional reports for the press. Mr. Holt, thu
predecessor of the present Postmaster Gsner
al, estimated that by teegraphic dispatches
the government lost Sl,000,0O0 in revenue
annually.
