EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON OITY: THURSDAY se ——— = = UF" Though Tex ‘ax ts printed on the fastest Steam press in use south ef Maltimore, its edition is t large as to require It to be put to press at an early hour: Advertizements, therefore, should be sent in before 12 o'clock m.; otherwise they may may not appear until the next dey. Ovn Friunos at the various military camps and Ppesitions will confer a favor by keeping us posted es to movements and affairs in their vi Spirit ef the Merning Press. The Intelligencer continues its able line of ar- gument fn opposition to “ the territorial scheme’ put forward by the abolitionists for the establish- ment of new governments over the territory won from the rebels. The scheme, however, may be considered a dead cock in the pit, as most of the influential republican journals have taken ground against it. The Republican urges that cotton shall not be exempted. from excise duty, as in the tax bill re- ported. to the House. SE ———— Tue Arnican Stave !Raps.—The Secretary of the Interior, (Hon. Caleb B. Smith,) in his annual report at the commencement of the pre- sent session of Congress, referring to the recent transfer to his department, by an order of Presi- dent Lincoln, of the duty of executing the lawsot the United States for the suppression of the slave trade, states that “ the subject was immedintely taken in hand, under a deep sense of our obliga- tiona asa nation, to put an end, if possible, to this odious traffic, and witha full conviction that the power of the Government, in the hands of competent, honest, and faithful officers, was adequate to the purpose,’’ and that the plan of operation which had been devised would con- tinue to be “ vigorously prosecuted.”” The bumane hopes then encouraged are being fully realized. The notorious Capt. Gordon, ef the slave bark ** Evie,’ has expiated his offences on the gallows—and we learn the following in- dictments have just been obtained at New York city: For the capital offense. 1. Samuel B.

Of the distinguished pian- ist the New York Tribune says: “Mr. Go has just given two brilliant concerts at I Salooa.

ARREST OF UNION MEN IN RICHMOND. {From the Richmond Examiner, March 3.} On Saturday night, Capt. Goodwin, by order of the Government, proceeded with a party of select men to the farm of John Minor Botts, and teok him and all of bis papers and private cor- respondence in custody. Leaving an officer in charge of “he papers and hous@ of Botts, Capt. Goodwin brought bim prisoner to this city, and lodged bim in MeDarlel’s negro jail in Blankin- ship’s alley, some fifty yards north of Franklin street. Capt. Goodwin then went to the farms of Val- entine Heckler and Franklin Stearns, and took both of these well-known Union men, and all of their papers and letters, and brought them tothis city. Hots’ and Heckler’s letters and papers have not yet been examined. Stearns’ letters baye under- gone only & cursory and parti :l exemination, and, so fer, nothing of interest bas been found among them, except severai letters from bis friend Rotts begging for money. Weare under the impression that, as yet, the Government is In possession of no positive in- formation tha’ would convict Botts of treason But he is known to be the recognized leader of allthe dispffected, 111 the low Germans of the Red Republican, Carl Schurz school, and of the vile remnant of the Union party. Against Stearns’ and Heckler’s loyalty the Government hes been for a month in the posses- stun of the most conclusive evidence; and it fe confident of its ablilty to prove that botb of these men have been loud in thelr denunciations of what they have been pleased to term the “Re- bellion,’’ and have. over and again, exp-essed their willingness to sacrifice their eatire property to restore the dominion in the South of the United States Government. ‘The man Wardwell, another party arrested, has, since the beginuing: of the war, been known to every citizen asa blatant and detiant Union man. Miller, who has also been lodged in jail, is the chief or high priest of the secret Black or Red German Republican Societies of Richmond, some of whose members. n be proved, have, since the reverse ef our a Port Donelson, boasted that they had thousands of arma and abundance of ammunition concealed in the city, and that the men were enrolled who would use them cn the first appearance of the Yankee army. An Irishman, named Joha M. Higgins, has also been arrested and put in the same prison. Higvins is a connection of Col, Corcoran, of the Yankee army. Two of Higgins’ aunts married two of Corcoran’s uncles. A letter from Corcoran dvising the latter to send his wife rth, and containing assurances that he (Corcoran) would have them safely conveyed under flag of truce, bas recently been latercepted by our Government. Whether our Government bas any evidence of Higgins? intention to follow Corzoran’s counsel, bas not transpired. It is said that Stearns, the whisky man, on ap- proaching the prison, surveyed it with a most contemptuous expression, and remarked, “If you are going to imprison all the Union men you wiil have to provide a much larger jail than this.’ Mr. Stearns will, we think, be not a little mis- taken in bis calculations If the Government ure its power wisely and firmly, this great Union rty, on which Stearns, aud others like him, ave based such great expectations, will, in a day, dwindle into ridiculously amall proportions. By neglect, idle, ignorant aud vicious persons have been allowed with impunity to boast their treason in our streets. We have reason to believe that many other ar- rests will be effected within the next twenty-four hours. We forego to mention names, lest we might throw some impzdiment in the way of the authorities. Now that the government appears really in earn- est in the suppression of treason, it becomes every citizen who kuows a man or set of men {nimical to our country and cause to point them out. MORE UNION MEN ARRESTED It will be recollected that, on Thursday last. John Gold and Elias Pauldin were arraigned for having mede use of treasonable language, and that it appeared on investigation that Gold bad epg himself a Union man, and announced bat the Stars and Stripes would soon wave from the top of our capital, and that Elias Paulding amended Gold’s announcement with an emphatic “That's so’ We stated in our last paper that the Mayor bad turned both ties over to the Confederate authorities. In ti we were mis- taken. Lhe Mayor had merely committed them for further exemination, and they were accord- ingly brought into court on Saturday and again committed till this morning. COUNTERFEITING TREASURY NOTES. Numerous arrest have been made of persons for counterfeiting rebel treasury notes. AFFAIRS AT WINCHESTER. Gen. Jackson Preparing for an Attack— The Stores Fo Provisions Removed—Gen. Jackson Rein- ‘orced A correspondent of the Richmond Dispatch, writing from Camp Mason, near Winchester, says the troops in that direction are improvin, in health, and but little sickness exists. A portion have received marching orders, but to what point isnotknown. * Itseems tobe pretty well known that the ne we threatening Winchester from Romney and Williamsport. ‘Stone Wall? Jack- son of course will be prepared to meet them.”? ‘The same correspondent, writing on the 26th, says: “The enemy have succeeded in crossing t! Potomnae and lusing on of Charl a in Jefferson county. The cars that left here this morning for that place returned a short time after, got deeming it prudeat to advance near the town. The Yankees are reported to be in large force, and will no doubt advance towards Winchester in a day or two.” b Sy ee eas of = 3d inst. says: “A report was bror it down by passengers on the cars yeaterday, that seventeen Yankee i. ments were at Leesburg; that Gen. Jackson been compelled to fall [Bers upon Winchester, and that Gen. Johnston was moving reinforce. ment to him at that place. Nothing confirmatory of this @port had been received atthe War De- partment; butas it comes bya gentleman who ts well known in the city, and was circulated terday very generally among some of our public men, We mention it as not an improbable ” DENIES IT.

SrrinevisLp, March 4 —[Special dispatch to the St. Louis Republican ]—On Wednesday night Capt. Montgomery, of Wright's Battalion, with his company, was surprised at Kietsville, Barry county, by 800 Rebels, supposed to belong to McBride’s Division, but who represented them- selves as Teann Rangers. They fired into the house ‘occupied by our men, killing two and wounding one. One of the Rebels was killed. The rest fied, taking with (hem about seventy horses. Two wagons loaded with arm: burned the same night at Major Harbifi’s farm, two miles beyond Kietsville. Colenels Ellisand Wright, with an adequate cavalry force, were sent to Kietsville. Price had burned several public buildings at Fayetteville, including the Fayetteville Arsenal, lesd factory, and several flouring mills, with 100,- 000 Ibs of flour. Many of the inhabitants along the road say they have been deceived by the lies of Price, who said they would all be butchered by the United States troops. A gsiron; Union feeling is exhibited amon those remaining. An old soldier of 1812 brough out a Union flag that he bad long concealed.
