The tact OF the enemy being IN such
strong force before Banks and Fremont,
renders ii probable that the rebels are
abandoning Richmond, and are cOncenIraI-
ing IN the valleys aud mountains of Vir-
giniA. Banks has been driven to Stras-
burg, and the enemy has possession OF the
Manassas Gap Railroad, between Stras-
burg aud Washington. At one time Banks
had possession of the Valley of Virginia

The Plans OF the TTaItors--startiInr
DIEeloRuFeR


Iron the Shelby CKy.J News, May 81
In our issue Of last week we renewed a
suggestion that we have on several occA.
siOns, during the past few months, urged
upon the Military Board of this State and
the Federal authorities: tue necessity OF
raising and organizing military force in
each county, of one hundred to two hun
dred mOuuted men, to act in the several
counties or when Occosioned required, to
unite their commands in defined districts
We would again urge this matter upon the
attention of those who have the authority
to carry the suggestion into practical OPP
Grafton.
There were reasons, nine months ago,
why this plan-or one analogous to it
should have been adopted At this lime
there is an absolute necessity for it. Had
the suggestion been put into practical OPP
Grafton even six months ago, tue men
composing the companies would have been
well drilled, and thoroughly understood
their duties. As it is now, however
speedily the companies may be organized,
it is very probable that before they are eff
fciently trained aud drilled there NAV be
need of their services indeed, to our
mind, circumstances tend very strongly to
Induce the conviction that the danger
that would demand their services is now
imminent. We are no alarmists. We do
not desire to circulate rumors or tears that
will cause excitement, or increase the feel
ings Of unrest which has taken possession
of so many of our hest citizens. But facts
are developing which show that the trail
tors are determined to carry out, AS far as
possible, their deliberately concocIed
plans TO keep the seat of war from their
own peculiar soil-the cotton States. This
has been, from the fret, the leading object
of tue Southern traitors who led the van
in the traitOrous attempt TO oVeFturn the
Government aud break up the UniOn.-
Fooled in their earlier attempts to carry
out this darling object, new plans were
recently formed, and all the energies of
the traitors are expected TO carry these
plans into partially, If not thor
Opghly. The measures recently adopted
by the traitors, aud which they are endea-
VOring to carry out, may be stated thus:
l. Withdraw all tue forces from the Vir-
ginin and North Carolina coasts, and con-
centrate them at some central point in Vfr-
ginia- These forces TO form one wing of
the rebel army, to be placed under the COM
mand of Joseph E. johnson, and to move
in the direction of Pittsburgh, PennsyIVa-
MIA, for the purpose of invading that State.

er wing of the rebel army, under command
of Robert E. Lee, and to move in the d.
rec;ion of Louisville, for the purpose OF
Invading Kentucky and Ohio.
3. Withdraw the forces from the coasts
Of Florida and Alabama, Mississippi, Lou
isiana, Texas and Arkansas, and concen-
rate them at CoFfnth. This wing To he

A Plot TO take the Life OF Governor
Morton, OF Indiana.



A dispatch from Evansville to the Cinein-
natl GG.ette says that the car which caus-
ed the collision at Sullivan, in this State,
by which Prot. Fletcher WAS killed, was
placed on the track by a man who has been
arrested and confessed the crime, impIicat-
ing several aceOmPlices. We learn from
other sources that the evidence is almost
conclusive that the collision was a pre-
meditated act, and that the parties con-
cerned in causing it are known. No one
can fail to see who was meant to he the
victim, and whence emanated the motive.
Governor Norton was known all along the
route, as We have learned since, to he on
board that train. 1t was known at SuIli-
van, through passengers on the preceding
train. Sullivan is aud has been a nest Of
the most violent rebel sympathiZers.
Union men have been Iynched there
Union sentiments have been suppressed by
violence, and more than once il has been
seriously considered by the State authori-
ties whether an armed force would not be
necessary to protect the loyal citizens
For weeks after the attack on Fort Sumter,
the traitors Of Sullivan kept a secession
flag flying from a tall pole in foil sight Of
every passing train. Il has been "a notO-
rions and disgusting hole of treason.
The intent of that collision was to Kill
Gov. Norton. 1t was treason going hand
in hand with murder. The blow missed
its aim, Gut it fell where it cost the State
one of its most able and energetic officers,
and the cause Of the Union one Of its most
patriotic and persistent supporters. The
fearful crime will yet return to plague the
traitors who have encouraged the spilfl
that attempted il.
