It is well known that the rebels there are thorough’y organized in every county in the State, and there is reason to believe they are fully pro- pared with arms, and ouly wait an opportunity to raise the blnck flag of rebellion.

EVFORTS TO EXTEND THE {IMB FOR MUSTRRING IN ‘.O0PE—THE REASONS TARLEPOR, ETC. There have been numerous ajyplications at the War De. partinent to day for an extension of the time fixed for piustering im volunteers, In some cases “where regiments are nearly full, and there are strong assurances of being able to fill them with vo- Janteers in a fow days, extensions have ben granted, generally wutil September 1, and in afew instances for a few days ia‘or, The question of extending the tho for . voluntoering is becoming one of vast political importance, in reverence to the effect upou the approaching Congres- sional elections. It is alloged that in many States the efforts of the radicals to pervert the war for the Union into one for abolition have iuduoed nearly all the democrats to hold back from volunteering under the recent call, and fears are entertained that the delay of the draft, ander existing circumstances, will tiperil the elections of re- pabiicans in many clovely contosted districts, ‘This is said to be the case to an alarming extent in Pennsylyunia and in a good many Weetern districts. For this reason the Mitnietiate resort to th draiting process is sttongly insisted npom. i Dit, BROWNSON’S ADDNESS ON PUBLIC AFTATRS. Dr. Brewnsou was seronaded to-night at Willard’s Hotel.

THE ARMING OF NEGROES. It seems by the fribune that Gen. Hunter disbanded his "negro regiment becanse the government would not rocegnize them ac part and parcel of the military force, and therefore he became responsiblo personally fer dis- Dursements t6 keep up that organization. If this be so will not Jim Lane and Governor Sprague be in the same category? Ggvernor Tod, of Ohio, with his just, good sense, perceives that the arming of negroes will be offen- sive to white soldic:s, aud hence he taboos the sugges- tion inevery shape and form. Intelligent negroes here argue that those who insist mpon arming the negroes, and plaéing them in the front of the battle, are not true friends of the colored race. The negrocs who compose such rogi- meats, driven into battle by the bayonets tn their rear, willbe oxposed to slavery if captured, as well ag to death and wounds. They contend that they would not have an equal chance with white’ soldiers, and would Be more usefully cceupied in ordjnary industrial pursuits. RELEASE OF PRISONERS.
