A BIT OF SECRET HIsToRY.-It has
TRANSFERRED that the rebel General Albert
Sydney johnson, killed at Shiloh, con-
certed nice plan to possess the seces-
sionists of California at the beginning of
the rebellion He was in command at
San Francisco At a given time the
.secessionists were to take the forts with
his connivance, and seize 10000 stand
of arms shipped there by Floyd for the
very purpose San Francisco at tAeir
mercy, must have succumbed, and the
rebels would thus have had port in
which to fit out privateers, and would
likewise have obtained control of the
vast treasures of the State. The fact
was either suspected or known at Wash
ington. Brig. Gen. Z. V. Sumner was
appointed to the command in California,
and was privily put on board ship at sea,
arriving at San Francisco without pre-
vous intimation of his coming. He
walked, incognito, to the Office of John
ston, informed him that he was his sue
cessor, showed him his papers, and de-
manded immediate possession. The as
tonished rebel had no alternative but to
comply. In half an hour after all the
guns of the forts were run out on the
land side and heavily shotted. The same
evening the $4,000 stand of arms at Be
nicia were secured. This brilliant, but
quiet, coup d etat saved the Ell Dorado

WE hear, indirectly, from the Kanaw-
ha Valley, that the command OF Gen.
Cox will go into winter quarters in a
very few days. Our advance is at Sum-
merville, Nicholas county. The rebels
are in some force at Lewisburg, in the
adjoining county OF Greenbrler, but
would probably abandon that point if an
advance were made upon them The
report that Cox will push on to Staunton
is hardly credible. He has neither the
force nor the transportation for such an
enterprise, and it is too late in the sea-
son to attempt it. The most we can
reasonably expect in Western Virginia
during the remainder of the campaign
will be the thorough expulsion OF the
rebels, the punishment OF the bush
whackers, and restoration of the au-
thority of the loyal Virginia Government
in the counties west of the Alleghanies.
