STANToN'S FEARS.

Although the greatest care has been
taken to smoother tho matter, the
real cause for locking the back door
of tho War Department has leaked
out most probably through diScon-
tented soldier: Cut into tic mildcst
form possible, it cannot be concealed
that the high-mindcd occupant Of the
War Department was oycrtakcn last
week with 80 great panic that j. ~.
most resulted in stampcding him.
When the tcrrors Of the nitroglyccr.
in" burst upon him he rcsortcd to the
military for protection, and while
even the most nervous people regard
cd the sto:y as 4 very weak hoax,
Mr.. Stanton saw danger enough in it
to surround the Department with Il
strong sliirmish line, having Il heavy
reserve for 81 1port located within the
building and camping out Oh the
hard brick floor. \ more absurd
story never cmanatcd from the intel
)igent contraband Of the rebellion
than the report THAT caused such con-
stcrnation IN tho War Department OH
Friday last.
This it was & detective employed
by Mr.. Stanton to bring him early in
tolligcncc of any danger that might
threaten the safety Of his Official sane
tuary appeared before him on that
day and impaired The startling intel
ligcncc that AIosby had organized n
force in the country adjacent to the
Potomac River and was prepared to
enter Washington, surround the War
Department. and seize the refractory
Secretary Of War, so-callcd. What
disposition was then to have been
made Of tho illuStrous prisoner was
not clearly known, but uncomfortable
visions Of midnight ride on Nir
ginia fence rail, exposed to the biting
blasts Of Wintry air, with no other
covering than Il liberal coat of tar and
feathers, or, perhaps, Il sudden disso-
lntion of all that is mortal of the
great War Secretary and his remains
thrust into some one of the half filled
holss that cover the Ball Run battle
field, filled the mind of Tic nervous
Stanton and he at once ordered out II
, force of scvcnty-iivc men. This force
was held under marching orders to
move to the scene of action at Il mo-
Iicnt's noticc. At night while the
weather was quite cold II strong guard
was sent to the Long Bridge across the
Potomac tnglook out for the approach
Of the enemy and contest the passage
Of the river. Tho guard, much to
their disgust, bivouackcd in tho cold
right air on the Long Bridge f0Y' two
nights, but were doomed to disap
pointment, for no Nlosby made his
appearance. Then it was resolved to
lccl,'th rear of the War Department
in order that there should be but one
entrance, which was thought the For
ty-fourth regiment, assisted by the
Twelfth regiment Of infantry and the
Fifth cavalry, would be ablo to hold
against any force that could be
brought upon it WASTE Cor n. y.

The War Cfl'cc has not recovered
from the terrible fright of last week
The invinciblc Secretary had an at

wan fingers at him, and glared with
famino-fcvcrcd eyes at the man who
carodno what became of the impris-
oncd boys in blue, 50, chat he kept the
captured Confederate pr'6mcrs out Of
tho rebel ranks. EIis nerves were nn-
settled all tho next day. and when
evening came, and one of his t'rcliablc
detectives" assured him that Nlosby
was gathering. his, clan, preparatory to
making raid on tic War Depart
mcnt, and bearing OFF the great Car.
not OIL a slarpcucd rail, great drops of
pcrspiration rolled OFF the invinciblc
brow. ..A guard was dispatched to the
long Bridge with Instructions to hold
it i'll case Mosby appeared at the head
of his expected fiyc hundred, at all
hazards, till all tho military were
aroused They shivcrcd in the mid
night air-it was one of those cold
nights-to sec nothing more danger

and wished aught but blessings on the
head of those who assigned them such
a FOOLS errand. 10 day cavalry men
havo been riding around like mad
whether in pursuit Of Mosby's secre-
ted band or not, We have not learned
All this sounds ridiculous and per.
feotly incredible; but it is an abso.
