Nothing definite is known s to' the number, but it has been stated, nd upon good authority, to be between forty and fifty thousand men. This, in c jnnection with the refusing- to receive ny Eastern bound freight, produced a considerable excitement in commercial circles, and had a tendency to bring forth en almost entire suspension cf business. To buy produce, with no prospect of .t hi run em for the next few days, is not a tery enviaLle position in which to ylace purchasers. It is not supposed that the Government will require the roads (if they arc used by it) for any length cf time, perhaps not more than one week. Ths roliin? stock of the New York and Eric and New York Central is not far from ten thousand cars, but what propor tion of them are at the Eastem termini cf these roads is not known here. If the Government has the ruad, the reat question to shippers is, when will they be in position to begin to receive freights Every hole and corner where freight can be crowded at the depots in this city in full to overflowing, with no cars to ship it, and express orders not to receipt for Eastern roads: The Gazette of game day says: ' Not a pound cf freight can be shipped East at present. 1 19 Defences ofCIndnnatl and Corln Ion. iuusi persons in iincinnau nave out a vague idea of danger in this quarter. There may be more danger in our posi tion than the public mind considers. The defeat of General Sherman on the Lou isville and Nashville road would unques tionably be followed by the fall of Lou isville, and the uprising cf swarms of 'secession' desperadoes all through the pwarmsof secession desperadoes all over the State cf Kentucky. Cincinnati would be the point they would strike at. How important then is the immediate reia lorcement of Gen. Sherman! The work cf throwing up embankments upon the hills overlooking the City of Covington for its defense, has been com menced in the neighborhood of the "first tunnel," on the Kentucky Central Rail road.

They had psovided for transportation four hundred cars and fifteen locomotives and had eight thousand men with equip age and artillery on board. They had secured the services of the telegraph op erators, one of whom forwarded to Lou isville despatchs explaining the detention cf trains on the road, and were movinjr forward at great rate. Everything was going well with them, and Louisville, with perhaps the exception of a few se cessionists, was unsuspecting and ungar ded, General Anderson, being innocent of any . knowledge of the movements, James Guthrie, president of the road, totally in the dark, and General Ros seau lingering in camp on the Indiana shore.. But at a station just beyond .

GcrYrenoatil RcmoyaT, His Poller. Ey reference to our Telegraph columns in will be seen that the report of General Fremont's removal is not true When the news of his being removed came over the wires from the Eist, the whole west trembled! The St. Louis Democrat says when the news reached the foldiers there their indignant feelings nearly led them to mutiny. We dont wonder. The fact is no man has such a held upon the affections of the Western people as General Fremont. All feel that he is the man for the times, place, and emergency. Had General Scott himself taken charge of the Department of the West, the people would not so enthusicstically and confidentally rallied. He has congregated a vast army in an almost incredibly short space of time. His policy is to deal heavy blows. Hence the character of his proclamation. While many doubt the policy of that proclamation, a momen1s reflection ought to set those doubts at rest. It effects none but rebels, and to such the govern rrnment should extend no leniency. Prompt, decisive, and severe measures should be resorted to. The confiscating act passed by Congress at its last session does not meet the case. We speak of the confiscating feature. It only confis cates the property of the rebel's found in vse against the Government. To be ef- iective it should confiscate all the proper ty of the rtbeh engaged against the gov ernment. This was the superior feature in Fremont's proclamation. To illustrate, we are knowing to the fact that rebels from the county in Missouri, opposite us are now in Claib Jackson's army, fighting to overthrow the Government, while their property at home is under protection of the laws of that govern ment. Their farms and other business operations are going on unmolested, and the proceeds regularly sent to sustain them while absent, thus traitorously en gaged. Is there any reason, sense, jus lice, or policy in permitting such a state of affairs? Certainly not. Gen. Fre mont's proclamation would confiscate ev ery cent of their property, and it would be right. The sooner "dillydallying" with this rebellion is stopped the better it will be. and the sooner it will be over with. If Congress does not at its next session make Gen. Fremont's proclama tion a law, it will fail to do its duty in this great emergency. The Election. Another election day with its usual anxiety, squablings, legitimate and ille gitimate scullduggery, has come and gone: Candidates and their particular friends breathe easier; the "lucky" ones feel quite jubilant, and look in a remarkably good humor ; the "wounded" ones look sour and will feel for a short time some what sore-headed. Well, so it is all along the journey of life, "up's and down's." When party lines are not drawn we all have our choice, and cannot think nor vote alike. It is a flattering characteris tic, however, of the American people, that however much they may indulge in criminating and recriminating during a campaign and on election day, when over we are "all friends again." In this county, as a general thing, there was but little strife. The only spirited contests were for the offices of County Treasurer and County Clerk. There were but two candidates for each office, all being of our best citizens and sound on the Union question, and which ever way the contest might have ended the county would have been fortunate in se curing men admirably qualified for the positions. Dr. Jao. McPnrRSON was, without op position, elected Councilman to fill the vacancy occasioned by the resignation of T. W. Tipton. The Doctor has never been a political aspirant, but is more than ordinarily well "booked up" in regard to the affairs of the country ; a man of rare abilities, fine social qualities, and an un compromising Union man. He will be an honor not only to the District he rep resents but to the body in which he will hare n seat. The fact of his being elect ed without opposition is of itself sufficient evidence of the high regard his fellow citizens entertain for him. Dr. A. S. Holladat, one of the Rep resentatives, is one of our oldest citizens held in high esteem by all parties. He, too, has never been an office seeker, but was chosen because of his excellent qual ifications. He is a man of fine abilities, t food speaker and writer, aad well posted in the affairs of the Territory and country at large. The House will have no superior is a sound, faithful, honor able and efficient member. Gro. Cbow, has had one term's ex perience as a member of the House, from this county. He is a representative of the farming interest, being himself one of Nemaha's most thriving, enterprising and intelligent farmers. War. Reed is another of our "live" farmers, and an active industrious and intelligent citizen. The "honors" are forced uponhiro, and the county will have no reason to regret selecting him as one of her Representatives. Jxo. P. Crotueh represents the me chanical interests, being himself a prac tical, industrious, and worthy mechanic, A foreigner by birth, yet one of the most uncompromising Union men, thus show ing his devotedness to his adopted coun try. He is a man too, of more than or dinary ability and intelligence, and will give a good account of himself. The county was never more ably rep resented in the Legislature. John H. Moubisox, Treasurer elect, will make a most capital officer ; coming fully uo to the Jeffersonian standard, "honest and capable." He has filled quite a number of positions of trust and responsibility since a resident among us, and always with entire satisfaction to the public. Wm. H. Hoove h, familiarly known all over the county as "Billy Hoover," is elected County Clerk and Register of Deeds. In this office Mr. Hoover has no superior. Before coming to Nebraska he had been "raised" in a County Clerk's office, and was elected at the first election in this County, Dec. 12, 1854, to the office of Register of Deeds, and continued to hold it until that office was merged into that of County Clerk. In the discharge of the duties of his office he is a model as to precision, accuracy, neatness, hon esty, steady habits, moral character and gentlemanly deportment. These char acteristics have won for him, as they will for all such, "friends indeed." It is but due here to say of T. W. Bed ford, the retiring County Clerk, that what we say of Mr. Hoover, could, with propriety, be said of him. Both these young 'gentleman are popular and highly esteemed in the county, and it was with difficulty, in many instances, that voters could make a choice. The County Commissioners, J. Barkes and W. H. Denman, are new men in office, but particularly fitted for the posi tions to which they have been elected, They are of our solid men ; both exten sive farmers, and well acquainted with the affairs of the county, the keeping and management of wnich will be safe in their hands. James W. Coleman, Sheriff elect, is an old hand at that business, having done more of it in that line, than any other one man in the county. He is "some" in ex ecuting " snatch'em take'ms," taking scamps about as well "when they are not as when they are" Judge C. W. Wheeler, re-elected to the office of Probate Judge, has so satis faclorially discharged the duties of that office that the people have said to him, "well done, thou good and faithful ser vant."

We are frequently applied to by men who wish to join the cavalry Compa nies now forming in this Territory, and who have horses of their own, to know whether they can sell their horses, or take them into the service with them. We have taken the pains to inform our selves in regard to the matter. Quartermaster Patrick is now at Oma ha and is purchasing horses. He is pay ing ''about S100 for such as are accep ted. They must be of dark color ; black bay, brown, sorrell, or dark iron grey, 15 to 16 hands hisrh and from five to eiffht years old. Volunteers are not allowed to furnish their own horses. But havinsr a suitable horse, Government will pur chase it and an. understanding can be made with the commanding officer that he can have the horse thus sold, allotted to him in the distribution. Designs of the Rebels. The Washington correspondent of the Baltimore Sun says: "The weather is remarkably favorable for military operations, and the armies on the Potomac appear to be prepared for some decisive movements. The next ten days will be the critical period in refer ence to the operations hereabouts. Some conjecture that a large portion of the confederate force will be despatched to Cuniberlan Gap in aid of the attempt by the disunion troops from Tennessee to command that important point, which is, in fact, the key to the strategic line which separates the southwestern Slates from Virginia. The possession of this line is doubtless to be strongly contested. There is much speculation upon the position and designs of General Johnston's army. Some suppose he awaits an opportunity to attack Gen. Banks, and others that he in tends to join Gen. Beauregard, at any critical moment. Nothing further has occurred in the movements of the confederate forcer near the Potomac by which their designs may be gathered. But still the general con clusion here is that they will not attack the Federal lines, and that, as tbe cold weather approaches, they will be with drawn south ward. WTooden huts are to be constructed, it is said, at or near Rich mond fur wintering a large body of troops."

We will publish the official vote next week THE PLAN OF THE REBELS- They will Jlbandon Virginia and make their Winter Quarters in Kentucky. We cannot belie-e that the plan of the authorities at Richmond is for the im mense Southern army lately on or near the Potomac either to attack Washington or to winter in Virginia. They know that thev cannot attack W ashington with success, and they know too that their whole subsistance of Virginia is eaten out. Such an army as that of the Poto mac could not subsist through the winter in Virginia, Notoriously the impression in the minds of the officers and men of the army is that they are to find their winter quarters in Kentucky. The same impression pervades the minds of the people of Virginia, and, what is more, it pervades the minds of the leading seces sionists of this btate. Ihe secessionists of our neighborhood, and, we doubt not of all the neighborhoods in Kentucky fuily believe that the Confedsrate army In Virginia intends occupying our State through the approaching winter. The prominent men of the secession party arouud us, basing their calculations upon the assurances they have in relation to the designs of the Richmond government, are thoroughly convinced that Kentucky will be in full possession of the Confed erates within thirty days. We do not know that any portion of the army of the Potomac has already arrived in Kentucky or is on its way here, but certainly there are apparently well-grounded rumors to this effect, and the manuevers before Washington tend to their corroboration. Positive statements are made that both Buckner and ZollicotTer have been rein forced and are now receiving reinforce ments from Virginia, and they may be true. The U. S. Government should look to this matter at once, and, if necessary, act as well as look. If Confederate forces have been drawn ofTfrom the Potomac to Kentucky, our government should know it and adopt at once a countervailing pol icy. By far too large a portion of the tremendous army of the United States at Washington has bren drawn from the West. The great and populous States of the East and the centre should have fur nished an army large enough for the de fence of the Capital, leaving the WTestern States to defend the Western border. The railroad arrangements in Virginia and Tennessee and Kentucky are' such that the whole Confiederate army of a hundred and seventy-five thousand, if that is the number, now or lately upon the Potomac, can be poured into Kentucky in less than two weeks, and such an army, unless confronted by a host like that now arrayed for the defence of Washington, could, in two weeks more, sweep through Kentucky and annihilate all the river cities and towns of Ohio and Indiana. Louisville Journal. was elected captain of the Shields Guards After the news of the bombardment of Sumter he went to Washington with a etter written by theJuie Senator Douglas on his death bed, teiering a regiment to be called the Irish Brigade. He was elected colonel and went to work with a will. He is a rigid temperance man although ocund and whole souled to a fault. He ! -11. . - is six teet three incnea in neignt wun a wiry elastic frame a large lustrous hazel eye an open frank Celtic face stamped with courage pluck and independence sur mounted with a bushy profusion of hair tinctured with gray. Honoiable in all relations respected by all he has won us way by untiring industry and unquest ionable courage. A fine scholar a good speaker a brill iant writer a promising lawyer was he when the banner of the L nion was insu lted. Now he is long may he continue so one of the brave defenders of the Union. In one of his last letters he says: If I die, if I fall m defence of our laws and Constitution: let mv example be followed by every man who loves the fame and renown of the fathers who made us a great and honored people. m How Gen, Fremont Does It. A gentleman who called upon Gen Fremont, at St. Louis, a few days ago. on business of no less importance than the equipment of a full regiment of cav alry, says that the following conversation took place : uen. r. l can give you a lew min utes; but be brief and pointed, as my time is very much occupied. Col. . I am of . My men are all enlisted ; here are my muster rolls. My boys are ready at the bugle call. I am elected their Colonel. Gen. F. (looking over the papers.) AI11 right in order seems to be cor rect. Who are your references I Col. . Mr. and Mr. . uen, r. very wen can to-morrow morning, at 10 .minutes past 4 o'clock and you shall have your answer, and if I accede to your wishes, your papers wi be ready. At ten minutes past four, precisely, our our informant was at the General s door which flew open at his demand. At this early hour the General was at his table with the papers before him. The Colone made his bow and was saluted thus: Gen. F. Here are your documents which will get you your equipments. Make haste and report yourself with your command to General ; and h i me hear a good report of you, as I have no doubt I shall from what your references say. Good -by. As the gentlemen weht out, he found half a dozen gentlemen waiting in their turn for an audience. That is the way Fremont does his business, and the above is indicative of the hours he sleeps. Observance and Enforcement of Laws. It appears that some time since Mar shall McDowell United States Marshall for Kansas, addressed a letter to the Uni ted States Attorney General stating that he did not deem it his duty to ieturnfugi tives to Missouri until she become more loyal and asking for advice on the subject The following was the reply : Attorney Generals Office July 23 1S61 J. L. JWcDowdl U Marshall Kansas. bir: Your letter or the Uth July re ceived 19thunder frank of Senator Lane of Kansas! asks advice whether or not you should give your official ser vices in the execution cf the Lvgiti Slave Lau'm It is the Presidents constitutional duty to "take care that the laws be faithfully executed." That means all the laws. He has no right to discriminate no right to execute the laws he likes and leave unexecuted those he dislikes. And of course you and I, his subordinates, can have no wider latitude ot discretion tnan he has. Missouri is a State in the Union The insurrectionary disorders in Missou ri are but individual crimes and do not change the legal status of the State, nor change its rights and obligations as member of the Union. A refusal bv a ministerial officer to execute any law which properly belongs to his office is official misdemeanor, of which I do not doubt the President would take notice. Very respectfully. Edward Bates Col. James A. JInlluIgan. The name of the heroic defender of Lexington Mo., will undoubtedly go down to posterity on the same page of history with those of Robert Andersen, McClel- lan. Lyon, Seigel, and a host of other brave men who have won distinction in this rebelion. The State of New York may well be proud of the honor of claim ing him as one of her sons. We select the following sketch of him from the De troit Daily Advertiser: Uol. James A. Mulligan was born in Utica in the veur 1829. His parents were natives of Ireland. His mother after the death of his father which took place when he was a child removed to Chicago where she has resided with her son for the past twenty three years. He was educated at the Catholic College of North Chicago and is a member of the Catholic Church. In 1S-52. 1S53, and 1S54 he read law in the office of the Hon Isaac N. Arnold, Congressman from the Chicago district. Forashoit time he edited the Western Tablet a semi-week lv newsnaDerin Chicago. At this time he held the position of second lieutenant in the Chicago Shield Guards one of the companies attached to the Irish brig ade now in Mo.
