Treason at the North.

A good many recent occurrences have
shown ample justification for the summa-
~ arrests which the Government has
sometimes made, but we have noticed
nothing so clearly indicating that it would
have been better for the country if more
of its secret foes at the North had been
arrested and punished, as the revelations
growing out of the arrest of John O'Neal,
John Benedict, and John Moore in Phila-
delphia, on charge of high treason, and
the seizure of two vessels freighted with
contraband goods, money and a rebel
mail, together with the testimony OF an
important witness, proving q deep laid
conspiracy against the Government in
New York, Philadelphia, and elsewhere
In the mail seized on its way to Richmond
were several letters duplicating several
prominent peace Democrats i'll contraband
trade, the planning of a piratical expedi-
ton from New York for the destruction of
American vessels, sending information to
the rebels, and other acts of treason, for
which some of them are to be tried
Among the letters was one from Professor
DICKSON, of the Jefferson Medical College,
at Philadelphia, who writes to his South
ern friend, :" the cry in the streets of the
fall of Nicksburg Is killing me by inches"
and fills his letter with information most
valuable to the rebels, and most likely Sc
riously to harm the Government of the
Union 10 which he had professed to be
loyal. When shall we get rio OF traitors

The Reaction in North Carolina,

The Raleigh Standard is in favor OF a
reconstruction of tile Union, and thinks
the probable terms of reconstruction be-
tween the North and South will be the
adoption of tue gradual emancipation sys-
TEN by all the rebellious states, which
North Carolina in common with the other
slave States will accept if the Federal
Government insists upon the same as the
only terms that can be granted, notwith-
standing the life of the insutution is not
in the least impaired by this war, as is
generally believed at the North. Moth
ing but great standing army between
the masters and slaves could impair the
institution over which is thrown the shield
of State and municipal laws, together with
the inherent will OF the Southern people,
hence these terms are the cheapest the
government can offer, and the best the
South can accept.
The Wilmington Journal, an original
secesh sheet, in speaking OF the bling
of the North Carolina Legislature, upon
call of Gov. Vance, ostensibly to consider
the question OF the Confederate currency,
charges that other and more important
objects occasion Ehe called session. 1t Bit
terly denounces the Observation-Disclosures as
intending to use the Legislature as a means
of accomplishing other purposes.
The Raleigh State Journal alleges the
discovery OF secret political organization
whose purposes are most Infamous and
reasonable, which has doubtless rami6ca-
tons throughout the State, and says that
developments may swiftly be made which

THE RECENT VICTORIES

a PROCLAMATION By THE PRESIDENT OF THE
UNITED STATES.
1t has pleased Almighty God te hearken to the
supplicarions and prayers of an afflicted people,
and to vouchsafe to the army and the navy of the
United States, the land and the sea, victories
so signal and effective to furnish reasonable
grounds for augmented confidence that the Union
of these States will be maintained their constitu-
ton preserved, and their peace and prosperity per-
ma.enty preserved
But these yisctories have been accorded not
without sacrifice of life, limb and liberty incurred
by brave, patriotic and loyal citizens. Domestic
affection il every part of the country follows in
the train of these fearful bereavements. 1t is
meet and right to recognize and confess the pres
euce OF Almighty father, and the power of His
hand equally in these triumphs and these sorrows.
Now Therefore, be it known that do set apart
Thursday, the sixth day of August next to be OBJ
served as a day for national Thanksgiving, praise
and prayer, and invite the people of the United
States to assemble that occasion in their
tomary places OF worship, and in the forms ap-
prov ed by their own conscience, render the hon.
age due to the Divine Majesty for the wonderful
things he has done in the nations behalf, and in
woke the influence of His Holy Spirit subdue the
anger which has produced and long sustained a
needless and cruel rebellion to change the hearts
O: the insurgents, to guide the counsels of the
Government with wisdom adequate to so great
national emergency, and to visit with tender
and consolation throughout the length and breadth
of our land ali those who through the vcistudes OF
marches, voyages, battles and sieges, have been
brought suffer in mind, body or estate and fani
Iy, to lead the whole nation through paths of
pentauce and submission to the Divine will, back
to the perfect enjoyment of Union and fraternal
peace.
In witness whereof L have Lereunto set my hand
and caused the seal of the United States to be
affixed.
Done the city of " ashin gton, this 18th day of
July, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight
hundred and sixty-three, and of the Independence
of the United States of America the eighty nth.

Gov. Seymour an Accom- pJfce.

On Saturday, said Gov. Seymour in his
speech on Tuesday from the City Hall
steps to his " friends" the incendiary,
thieves and murderers, who even then
were sacking dwelling houses, and slaugh-
tering the most harmless, The most inoffen-
sive, the most defenceless, and the most
powerless class among US SATURDAYS"
said Gov. Seymour. " sent the Adiutant-
General to Washington to urge its 1.-THE
Drafts) postponement." On Saturday.
Two days before this outbreak What
better proof than this can be given that
the Governor anticipated the events of
Monday But did he go to the civil and
military authorities to warn them of what
was comipg2 Did he use his own power
as Chief Magistrate OF the State to avert
this dire calamity by having in readiness
a sufficient force to quell it On the instant
lie did none of these things-but he went
to Long Branch only to return to the
burning and maddeGed city on Tuesday
morning when the instruction was under
full Roadway.
