How Gen. Granger Treats the RebeS

A correspondent of the Philadelphia
Press. writing from Franklin, Tenn. thus
explains General Changers method of
treating loyal and disloyal people:
There are but a half doxed Union
families in Franklin. oul of a population
of one thousand five hundred inhabitants.
The Union people are put to no incon-
veniences, and are allowed to go any
where within our lines, while the Secess-
%ionists, male and female, (and especially
the ladies', who generally get all they
desire from our commanders of posts
are deprived Of all privileges, and for
hidden to leave the town, upon the pen
atty of being arrested as a spy. When
persons apply to the General for passes
he does not ask them if they will take
the oath or if they are willing to acknol-
edgd the Federal Government, but in
quires,' ave you always been a loyal
subject of the United States? He admits
of but one answer, prefaced by no ifs and
ands. If they answer yes he makes
them prove their loyalty. If they answer
No he informs them that he considers
that none but loyal people are entitled
to privileges, and grants none and all

Destination or the Nebraska Sec
Ond Cavalry.

Last week We noticed the fact of
this Regiment being sent to MinnesO-
ia. and also stated that a pledge had
been given the soldiers, when they
enlisted, that they we're designed for
home protection. Some of our friends
hereabouts are disposed to slightly
eensure us for the article alluded to /;
think there is "not now, and never
was. even a shadow of danger, from
Indians in this part of Nebraska /"
that, "perhaps Omaha, and may be a
few interested individuals, would be
much pleased to have the troops kept
here to draw from Government, DUR
ing the year, $1,000, OOO," but that
sany article, or any argument having
a tendency to prevent the troops from
going where they viii be most use to
Government, is more than half trea
SON" &c. All very good But what's
the use ofsending them to Minnesota ?
Does any body suppose there is now
any danger there? Sosfar as this
Territory is concerned, there may be
no danger from Indians in this portion,
but Government has alwaystfound it
necessary to keep a force station at
the forts, to protect overland travel to
the mines, and the Pacific coast
Why not our own citizens fill those
posts, and thus liberate soldiers from
other States? By doing so they will
be as valuable to Government as at
any other.place, and at the same time
save more money in the Territory.
But there are other foes far more
Formidable than Indians. Missouri is
swarming with Bushwhackers and
horse-thieyes. There can be no peace
in that State, or States and Terrific
ries bordering on it, without military
force stationed in various portions of
il.
From a private letter we received
to-day from st. 10 we are informed
there are ''fears of a grand upris-
ing through Northern Missouri and
Southern Iowa, to take place some
time next month, when the K. 6. C.'s
and secessionists are to prepare the
way for Gen. Price" This anticipa~
ted outbreak would never occur
if there were soldiers near the border.
1t will probably never occur unless
Price should be able to make a rade
to the Missouri River. Should that
happen, we have no doubt the Secesh
even in AtchisOn county, and in
Kansas and Nebraska, would be as
rampant as they were two years ago.
For the Regiment to be sent South
as some suggest, would be the height
of folly. They would scarcely have
time to march to Dixie until their
time of enlistment woNld expire.
