ST. JOINS, N. F., Aug. 4th.-The Arabia
from Liverpool July 26th via Queenstown on
the 9th. was boarded off Cape Race on Sun
day. .-,-
4bo+ tsthe defeat of Gen. Mcclellan has
changed everything beyond debate. gem
eral rising may be anticipated in all the Dor
der states occupied by the tederals. The
northerners, who are no fools, ARE receiving
the conviction that such people as the CON
federotes can never be sublugated. Ii the

tha president must actually be made; but the
men will not be forthcoming voluntarily vol
unteerinr is making too slow progress lor
that"
The New York correspondent of the Times
declares that Gin eleven days only l5,OO0
men had come forward to volunteer, IN spite
of tbp enormous bounty offered. Up to the
very latest. society has borne the wasting
away of the army with comparative equanlni-
ity, but the foreigners and rowdles are no"

If the scheme of enlistment fails then al Il
over, and in few months the independents
of the south must be acknowledged. I'm

The Times also has a special dispatch an
nouncing that Mcclellan was to be suppressed

From WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 5.-Last night a squad
of cavalry proceeded to the residence of Jes-
Sc Higgins, near Poolesville, Montgomery
county, Md, and arrested him. He was
brought to the city at a late hour, and at once
sent to the old capitol by the provost marshal.
He is charged with holding communication
with the rebels, and forwarding recruits for
the confederate army, by sending them across
the Potomac, and thence via Front Royal, to
the rebel lines.
The National Republican says the story
about the organization of secret negro associ-
ations for protection in anticipation of riots is
a pure fiction.
1t is certain those whose duty it is to direct
from this point the warlike movements, have
adopted such precautionary measures as will
prevent premature disclosures of coutem-
plated operations, and thus guard against the
disastrous effects from that cause of either
published or privately communicated state
ments. The wisdom of this policy is
commended even by those whose Off
cial positions have heretofore given them
some claim to be advised of the objects and
purposes of the administration. Ii was
months ago charged or believed that through
rebel spies in Washington the enemy was IN
constant receipt of much valuable knowledge
not known to the loyal public. But only
above suspicion, can now be the possessors of
information the improper disclosure of which
would prove detrimental to the best interests
of the country.
Gen. Burnside has it is believed reached his
new field of operations, and may soon, by his
own acts, announce his locality.
There is authority for emphatlcally deny
ing the truth of the statement that secretary
Seward has made strong remonstrance to
the French government against the presence
in the Gulf of Mexico of a formidable French
fleet, nor has any other such action as repre-
scented been taken in the premises.
Mr.. Duncan of South Carolina, but now
known as prominent citizen of Berlin, has
been appointed consul to Hanover. VIM. r.
Wheeler of New York, has been awarded the
contract for supplying the treasury depart
ment with stationery. The preliminary re-
port of the census will be printed and ready
for distribution in the course of week.
The president, to-day, accompanied by sec
retary Seward and Gen. Sturgis, inspected
the forts and camps on the south side of the
Potomac. He was enthusiastically received
by all the troops at all points on the route,
and with the usual salutes of cannon.
The following named officers in the volun-
teer service have been dismissed Lieut..
Charles A. Doerr, Capt. Joseph j. Bradley,
assistant surgeon r. G. Thomson, quarter
master Joseph G. Gates, Lieut.. II. Links,
Can't. L. Hobart of New York, major De-
witt, Thomas P. Warfeld, Lieut.. Joseph E.
Lodge, Lieut. Charles II. Chandler, of Penn
sylvania, major general II. Richmond, OF
Michigan, Lieut. Chas. G. Grey, of Vermont
Capt. Charles II. Gilman, of Maine, Capt
Utbank of Kentucky.

TREASON RAMPANT.-Dr. Edison B. Odds,
once democratic member of congress from
Ohio, and now a candidate of the same party
for reelection, had ''talk" with portion of
his constituents few days ago, in which he
held forth in the following reasonable style;
~ see blood at the ballot box this fall. The
president has issued his proclamation for three
hundred thousand more troops, and congress
has passed law authorizing him to draft
them. He will have to draft them if he gets
them, because these cowardly abolitionists
will not enlist. There is an election this fall,
and they want to carry it. They want to draft
democrats they will draft them to prevent
their voting. They have the power and can
so arrange it. You will not be cheated. L
tell you, you will not submit to these wrongs.
You will see blood. If they attempt to arrest
us and take us from our families to support
an administration in its violations of the CON
stitution, we will resist even to blood. 1t the
democrats don't succeed at the ballot box they
will succeed at the point Of the bayonet"

New York, Aug. 5.-The post Office en-
ployees have raised $4,000 to aid enlistments.
PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 5.-The quota repair
ed by the first call will soon be raised here.
Gen. Pleasanton has called the homeguards
together to obey the second call, the state
militia law providing that in case of a draft
the volunteer companies shall be first de-
tached. This will supply the quota of this
city.
BosToN, Aug. 5.-Oyer five hundred lead
ing merchants have signed the following, and
a public meeting is proposed to further an in
crease of the hst:-''We, the undersigned,
merchants of Boston, realizing the importance
of an immediate response to the call of the
government for an additional military force,
hereby agree that the young men in our en-
pIoyment who may enlist in the service of the
United States shall on their return from said
service be entitled to the situations they occu-
pied before enlisting."
