ARRHsT OF A DISTINGUISHED PERsoNAeE.--
This morning viii always be remembered by Ger
tain citizens Of washington. The provost guard
escorted 10 the Central guArdhouSe avery eminent
personAge. The measured steps OF the guard, and
their demure OountenAnces, betokened q distin-
guiShed arrest. Alarge crowd followed. The Peo-
pie looked, the people gaIed, the people stared.
Inquisltive tongues asked, who is III ioho is ~
Anxious lips murmured, abraham Hnooln,"
4" Abraham Laneoln.n Thereport soon spread that
the President was arrested. Up new the windows,
open slammed the shutters, out shot the faces. So
cession eyes spArkled. Secession cheeks dimpled.
Secession voices, in choral symphony, shouted the
good tmes are coming, the people Of the North be-
gin to know their rights, and woe, woe, woe to his
AbrAhAmio Majesty. The jubilant shoutinga Of the
secesh exoelled in fervor the IRA Of the French
revolution, but, unlike the famous ehAnsons Of
Revolutionary France, they were based upon nimSy
nothingness. The person under arrest was not
Abraham Lincoln, President Of the Republic Of the
United states and oommander4n-chief Of its army
and nAvyj but Abraham Lincoln, member Of com

TIE President AND WEST VIRGINIA. The
New York Times says that President Llncolns
reasons for signing The bill admitting West {ir-
o;nja into the Union, v<re as follows;
!. That it was the correct policy OF the ad-
m1istration to secure as much free territory
* POSSIBLE and with IS little trouble
) That as the Y heeIing Legislature had
been recognized by Congress as the Legisla-
tur Of the State of Virginia, that body had
the authority to adopt measures looking to the
division Of the State; that the responsibility
did not lie with those Who voted for the meas
ure more than with those who did not vote
against it. viz: the Inhabitants Of the eastern
section Of the state.
3. And the principal reason, that he was
bound to take care Of his friends.
The opinions Of the President were in writ
inc. and were read in Cabinet meeting. Half
Of the Cabinet was opposed to the measure.
President Davis, in his recent speech at
Richmond spoke Of the battle at Vicksburg,
as Federal repulse, and OF the battle at Muir
treesboro;, first day, a Confederate victory
He savs-''Of concert of action in the South,
he said it is as necessary to the success Of the
cause. as fair wind AID good sails are to a

as the earth now revolves upon it's axis, SO
surely will peace and independence be estah-
