Arrangements have been made to hive a Govern ment steamer at Annapolis, to receive the prlioners and carry them to their destination. "Some four or Ave of the chief men in the affair are to be arrested today. When they meet on the 17th you will please have everything prepared to arrest the whole party, and be sure that none es cape. It is understood that you arrnge with General Dia and Governor Seward the modus operandi. It has been-intimated to me that the meeting might take place on the 14th ; please be prepared. I would be glad to have 'you advise me frequently of your arrangements in regard to this very important matter. "If it is successfully carried out, it will go far toward breaking the back-bone of the rebellion.. It will probably be well to have a special train quietly prepared to take the prisoners to Annapolis.

After the seven days' battles on the Peninsula, General McClellan wrote Rom Harrison's Lauding to the President: "Military power should not be 'allowed to Inter fero with tbe relations of servitude, either by sup. porting or impairing the authority, of the master, except for suppressing disorder, as in other cases. Slaves contraband under the act of Congress," (i. e., the slaves of all rebels in arms,) c , seeking mili tary protection, should receive it. The right of the Government to appropriate peamrnentiy to its own service claims to slave labor should be asserted, and the right of the-owner to compensation therefor Should be recognized. This principle' might be ex tended, upon grounds of military necessity and Be. malty, to all the slaves within a particular State, thus working manumission in such State; and in Missouri, perhaps in Western Virginia also, and possibly even in Maryland, the expediency of such a measure Is only a question of time." INCIDENTS OF THE WAR. BRTRIntriON.—A few months ago a part of a re giment in Sherman's army was captured, and on their way to Andersonville passed through the tows of Meridian; Ga. As they passed along the streets the women of a .certain hotel came out, addressed' them in the most abusive language, pulled them by their coats, and evenz-incredible as it may seem— spat in their faces. These prisoners were soon af terwards exchanged, and, as it happened, again passed through the town of Meridian. But they were with theirregiment this time, and Gen. Sher man was at the bead of our forces there.. They re, cognized the hotel, reported the story of their treat ment to- headquarters, and, with ethers, were de tached to pay a visit to the women who had insulted them months before. They found them all just pre paring to set down to dinner. Acting as if they were obeyipg disagreeable orders, they stated, the cause of their visit—to reduce the hotel to ashes I With out further ceremony; they heaped (main end other furniture in the centre of the, room, and set - fire to the pile. The - women plead with them to help them to save some of the furniture. .• Oh, certainly I" • So, with mock alacrity and gravity the soldiers' carried out the feather beds and bedding 'first, pie cing it as carefully on the ground as if it were crockery or glass. This done they carried out the mirrors and crockery, and pitched them - against the fence. Meanwhile, the flames were rapidly , filling the house. After it bad burned down the soldiers coolly carried off the bedding to their tents, and burnedwhen they loft the town they it. But the broken gla es and crockery they left behind them ! The property of Captain Hamilton, the forever infamous leader of the hand - that committed the massacre of the. bteralede.Ouyque in Kansas, met a son e what similar fate. A Kansas regiment en camped on his grounds ; but the elegant shrubbery and the finti house are permanently disfigured now. A fight had occurred near it and made a wreck of -the place. The old woman left like a barnacle on it told the Kansas men how the old boss had been a captain in Kansas and was now a colonel in the trans-Mississippi rebel army. I do not think tie stay of the Kansas regiment helped to revive tee old glories of the homestead of the murderer of the bleralade-Cuyque. Penseve.—We have often eomarked that when the belligerent troops are lying near one another for any length of time they become quite communicative and friendly. They forget. that they are enemies, and a kind of chivalric honor and courtesy are strictly observed during their self-ap pointed truce. - If they are compelled to tire daring the existence of this self constituted armistice they fire the first volley in the air, so as to give the others time to got back. The following incident, which happened a week or _two ago in trent of the 14th Corps of Sherman's - army, fully illustrates howsensitive they are em such, occasions of their honor.: Our works aro pretty close to the enemy's, and the pickets 'evilly meet in the centre. *There was no firing sdobg the lines, and it occurred' to the poor fellows on both. sides that it would be pleasant to get up out of their ritlepits stretch their cramped limbs, and have a little friendly intercourse with their neighbors. So a sort of ventriloquism con von etion ensued from the pits, and, all prelimi naries being satisfactorily arranged, a regular truce was agreed upon. They jumped up, shook off the dirt, and-met in so friendly a way that one would bare thought they'were the best and most loving neighbors IR the world: Trade was carried on on a small scale, escapes and adventures recounted, and home. friends and scones warmly discussed. 'ln the- midst of the thing, the rebels in the rear' alled but to . their cow radea, "Boys, come back, the Pdajpr. becoming." How it happened that the Major was, an old, rusty, crusty customer, and had no hand in the truce at all ; so when he came up he was in. a fame, and , called out, e. Damn you, come back here ; and why' the hell don't you- fire 1" The men cattle back, but refund to fire on our fellows until they had got to their, pits, which set the Major in such a boiling rage that he snatched a gun and popped at one of our men, slightly wounding him. A regular cry ofindignation at such a violation of ' faith was raised by his men, and live of them -ac tually walked out of his linesinto.ours, vowing that they could not, in justice to their, honor, serve any • longer in•an army where honorable treaties were so grossly violated. Their comrades refused to inter . fere, and evidently deeply sympathized with their offended dignity. Our boys received them warmly ; • even the wounded man joined in the welcome. 'Unfair Incomes naturnas. To the Editor of The Prem . : • Sin : Nearly all the importers of foreign goods in this country, and tho various agents for Eiuopean houses, now transact their business in gold, there fore their gains are in gold. The question now natu rally arises as to how.they make their income return to the assessors. If returned on what they actually , make In gold, they do not, as a Class, pay their juel proportion of taxes. This is manifest injustice to those who base their business on the national cur rency, and also a great Was to the Government. In Illustration of this, suppose an importer to have made, during the last year, nine thousand dollars in gold, and returned that amount, he would then pay: three per cent., say two hundred and seventy dol.' lam whereas, If his business was conducted in our. remoy, with gold at one hundred - per cent. premium,' he would have mule eighteen thousand dollars, on which he would have to pay live per cent., say OA hundred dollars, making a difference to the Gaverm. went of six hundred and thirty dollars. The writer, in. common with many ethos*, would ' like to have this subject brought squarely before the. Commissioner for examination, that he may so te, Struot the assessors in large cities that they may be enab;ed to make the correct assessment on such in. comes. If you will give us your aid in this matter; we can add this among your other efforts to sustain our Government in the hour of need. • I am, sir, very respectfully yours, • "AP OLD iMrOB,TZB f f; A: BJEAtTriniL IDEA.—The Viennese have adopted the euetote-ot acting 'photographs ocivered with .8 1 4134-004 ceased pernal PA awir Outlay:om, I POLITICAL THE swig. - EXIMITEIHN OE THE STATE OAP/TEL.—ay - soon as the board of commissioners can be convenadetho contract for extending the' Capitol will be /et, and w,orktiminediately commenced.

UNREAL NEWS.- Viet& rAsErroirs.—Fiom Vichy, rather than from Palls, we hil've bad our fashions of late.- As MO promised at the outpat of the season, these have bad a tendency to become more fantastic than becoming. The hats, so pretty two years ago, with their long, waving feathers, have been replaced by high-crowned hats, with narrow rime, becoming Ito very few faces, tufted as they are in front with strange feathers and,straw ornaments. At Vichy, however; fashionable ladies have been exhibiting the three-cornered hatef 'Lords XV., fringed with White feathers. These, with Canes, which have be: come indispensable at watering places, and pale tots, very much of the shape of those worn by lackeys about the same period, have given a Sort of costume air to the most aristocratic of the lady visitors there not altogether in the best possible taste. Waistcoats, of unmeasurable length, are also much adopted with this style of dross, and give rise to an immense amount of fancy buttons and trimmings. In fact, everything is done which can add to the fantastic character of the costume, with out much regard to its suitability to the wearer. BUTTlilt AND CIEIXECBB.—We learn that In several counties in this State the great body of the farmers and dairymen have given up entirely the production of butter, and turned their attention to divan. The milk is brought fx'ora all the dairies within reach to the "cheese factory," as it Is called, and many of the dairymen • reserve , only the milk for their own table, buying their own butter. Others reserve the Sunday , s`milk for their own use, not being willing to engage In its delivery on that day. Great pains are taken With the cheese • Many are formed In largo sizes, weighing two hundred to two hundred and dlty pounds ,• and large contracts have been made for the'Egglish market at 20 to 25 cents per pound. Perhaps no more cheese will be made in the coun try on aceount •of these changes ;.but our impres sion is, that it will diminish the supply of butter to stme extent, and Increase the other product The families of dairymen encourage the change, as It makes an entire revolution In the household la. borB..vastlydiroluisbingtho drudgery of the farm.— N.

Some of them came into Ca nada and boasted of being bounty Jumpers, telling how easy it was to ado l 3 the` Government. The smooth stories they told induced some of the 4:Janaz diens to try the samordodgei sharing the profits.with those who had bee n a through the ceremony.

Sea urt k i eel to a „Desert. We are fs miliarithrough the Bible, with instances of dry land. coveredwitEwater ; but many of our readers'may not have) heard hitherto that the desert of the Great -Sahararin Wiirth Africa, was once a sea. The. reasons for this theory are thus given in tie niieniug he July) itnulber of 'the new Geologi &; Meg/zit:4lll.a translation from a paper by F. Desor, ofNeufchatel, Switzerland: • till' the Sahara is the bottom Of a vanished sea; it is interestlng_tp_laquire if this disappearance has been caused by , n Upheaval or by gradual and suceessive , elevations f an'd at Mutt epoch this extraordinary phenomenon has changed the aspect of-the African , continent,-and. eoluiequently pro duced serious modifications of the climate of Eu rope..:There was.a. general impression that the „Desert of the Sahara was of recent formation ; but . the'opinions.of geologists were divided as to the period to which it should be assigned, some con, Waring it Tertiary and Others of Qnar ternary age. Our obeer.vatioris resolve these doubts, and definite ly fur the,age of the Sahara, by the help of a little shell, the Cardium.edule. 'no ,shell was known to exist in the neighborhood of the Caravanserai of Om-Thiour, near Ohotbiffelrir, and it had been found at a depth of abaft' twenty-thred feet in the artesian wells of that place: Prom this it might hive been supposed that it belonged to the Chott (or lake) Melrir. . But, On .the other hand, we met along with' it 'a species of Buccinunt, from stage to stage, at .a; great -distance from the Chott (eveg,near Gnomes In Soul), always in the same geolVcal position, in a bed of sand distinctly • stratitied underneath the superficial gypsum. It ;thus became evident that the shells did not belong to the Chott, but to a lo#er stratum, - indicating sea far more extensive and olderthan the salt lakes. These shells, therefore, not only attest the existence of a sea in those regions, but also that the sea be longed to our own epoch: Further, the Cardium edule In the Mediterranean. a, species Inhabit ing brackish waters at the mouths of rivers ; and we may conclude that the Sahara, before being dried up, was an inland sea, a kind of brackish Baltic, and this, amongst other things, explains the small num ber of the species, for It Is known that the faurat of inland seas are poor In number and debased. "To sum up :.whitg all communication with the ocean had ceased, affd the. gulf became a lake, the saltness of the waters-would, by Ovaporationt in crease so much as almost to destroy all animal life ; the Chott Melrir would become like the Dead Sea; and, in fact, it is affirmed - that it is completely des. , titute of life. This idea of a slow but recent elevation of the Sahara had already been 'mooted as a thbOry by DI. Lecher, and it was a source of lively satisfaction to him to find his hypothesis confirmed on the spot. The presence of the - sea was referred to by M. Lecher to explain certain phenomena in Switzer land connected , with the Glacial period, which , ended when the sea disappeared. is It possible to form an idea of the climatal conditions impoied on' Europe by this vast extent of water 4 We may do se when we consider the influence exercised by the • burning winds which come from the Sahara, and which are so justly called 'snow • eaters' ' and gla cleptlestroyers., While the Sahara was covered' with water the Swiss mountains never felt the burning breath of the ftehn and , the alrooco the winters, never opposed by a lukewarm breeze, - could: accumulate their snows and their ice and ex tend the borders of their empire. ,But when the' desert was dry, what an effect must have been pro duced by the first visit of the fsehn to the enor , mous glaciers of the Alps ! What torrents r What deluges of water !' what ravages especially on the southern slope ! and now how , easy to comprehend the erosion of the mountains and thelevelling of the plain of Lombardy, subjected to these rude assaults and covered with eratic debris PI , .

A Ilacisre s Faufir Cleveland Herald has the following account of a novel structnee-now going up in that city : "The building is eighty feet by fortpfour and a half, the aide walls being twenty-two feet high. The front• of the building, occupying about one fourth of the whole size, is to be used as a store, or ordinary warehouse, and will be constructed In the ordinary manner- The remainder of the building is to be walled entirely with iron, per fectly light, and divided from the front part by similar,walls. Within this enclosure is built an other building, also of iron, with its walls about three feet dirtant from the walls of the outer build ing. The inner building is, divided by iron walls into several smaller rooms, earth of them being per fectly garproof. The ground beneath the building was first packed with wet earth, the beams laid in coal tar, end„the surface of the earth will be covered with coal tar. The space between the ground and the flooring will then be packed tight with sawdust, as will be the space between' the outer and inner walls, and the hollow space In the iron-lined doors. Overhead will be packed tightly with ice, which will be congealed by &peculiar process into a solid mass of hard ice, never: feet thick. When all is oompieted the - small rooms will be filled with froth fruits. such as apples, grapes, he., the oxygen of the atmosphere withdrawn by chemi cal process, and the room hermetically sealed. The vivifying elements being withdrawn and the tem perature being kept down by the p eculiar process to about 30 degrees, the trait remains perfectly fresh until the season for fresh fraW having passed away, a high market is upon for them, when the chambers are opened as wanted, and the fruit taken Out as fresh as when Gust gathered. Asinan.—This is a substance on which a great deal has 'been written. It has generally been clamed among minerals, although avowedly origins, ting froth the vegetable kingdom. Nothing as yet has afforded a Clue to the plant that may. have pro duced it; nor has any plausible conjecture been formed from the flowers and insects sometimes im bedded In its mass. Its peculiarly resinous nature seems to- point to Some Hymens or to the Binu Dammcre as the parent plant, but there is no perfect identity between the produce of these genera and ambers. Nor is it certain that all kinds of amber proceed from the same source, for its aspect often varies considerably according to thshbelis in which it is found, which circumstance has led many natu ralists to the belierthat there are several amber producing plants. In a .paper addressed to the Academy of Soleness by M. Baudrimont, the coin-. position ,of this anomalous subject is examined. . Reeler had already shown that white and opaque amber contains more enceinte sold than the perfect ly transparent yellow sort; Drapter had analyzed it, and found itto contain carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and a small p6rtion of ashes, consisting of 'taunting, and Baudrimont, however, shows that it contains another elemeihtnot hitherto mentioned, sulphur. It a fewfragments of amber be subjected in a test tube to a heat of distillation, and paper impregnated with acetate of lead be ii mersed into the white fumes evolved,it immediately turns black, thus unmistakably denoting the presence of a sulphureted co , und. The prepor tion of sulpbur contained in bar is not, however, very considerable, eines our author fixes it at somt what less than' ono-half per cent. • Bat under what form does it exist therein 1 Is It contained in the es sential oil, or in the two soluble resins, or in the in soluble bitumen ()outlined in the amber 4 M. Baud rimont does not tell us, but states that most certainly it is combined with otganie matter, because It evolved under the form of hydrosalphurie.achl.— Scientific American.
