.'TRIASON IN HIGH PLACES.
If thd war for.the Union, failsiita failure
will probably be oausid more by treason than
by force of arms. There is'evere. reason to
■ -believe that the success of the renllion hith
erto has been secured almost whony by tree-'
'tonable communications bom trusted men in
our own ranks or employed io t&t manager
ment of military affairs. Many*i£h comma
nications are kndwn to have beetfmade, and
many more are suspected to bavebcon made,
efer since the begmoing wlkr. Again
abd agaln have the of their
previous knowledge of all the movements of
our afmies; and.many/acts haveJßOved their
bpasts.truc. We have just learne4#;tQdst as
tounding eireumstapee, whieh > maTCyroU make;
©very patriot's heart shrifts
n}ost in despair* An officer of high character :
bps informed ns tbat’to bfv certain kubwlctlg©-
:on the day when.the Funucola ran the gaunt-.
let of the rebel batteries, and before the uiual
hour for communicating the countersign of the
day to our pickets opposite oho or those bat
teries, the rebel pickets boastfully shouted the
correct countersign across tho river, andadded:
The Pensacola is coming down to-night l"
What does this fact prove 7 It pro res (ha* the
cauntenigni -which' arc tent front' the War De
partment to our camp* are made known to the
rebel* by traitor* in confidential pontiont in or
near that Dsporfiemf, and tint other informa
tion in reference to contemplated"nooevuni* of
our naval force* ii tikiwiis communicated to the'
enemy l What Is to be' the end of all this?
Can there not be some purification of the de- ;
S ailments, so as to aave the country from the
eitruction that must- otherwise result from
such fearful treachery? .The depressing fact
is known that prefereuce for ihe rt
i-1 bollion, or base corruption, of
Government to carry onj unaui^BHß^corre
spondence with thp rebels un-_
known and ondiscoverable. Shalljno effort
be made to unmask these rile .traitors ? If
discovered, shall we ‘‘swear them and let
them go," or shall we rather bang them
to the first lamp-post? If ever a crime
deserved summary and extreme, punishment,
surely such a base betray&f of is
shown by such acts should be most promptly
and severely visited -witbjbe law’s heaviest
penalties. Whothar prompted by lore of the
rebellion, or by bribes offered by the enemy,
or by a mercenary wish to prolong the war,
and profit by plundering the Gojernutent and
the poor soldiers, sueb o.
thousand fold by tbe confidence reposed in i
traitors—merits everlasting sbamo aad con
tempt, and should receive such punishment— '
torture even—as will make the boldest forever
shrink from following the base example.

The Confirmation of Army Officers^
A Washington dispatch to tho New York,
Herald says that the Committee on Nomina
tions in the Senate has bad about one hundred
and & ft; nominations of Brigadier Generals
referred to It, and they have agreed to report
fifty as porthy of confirmation. Messrs.,..
Nkolct and Ex-Senator CoNM£U,%.<>f tbit
State, are favorably reported 'Among the
Brigadier Generals not yet ripbrted to the
Senate, bnt to whole confirmation objections
have been raised, causing in some instances
sharp-debate, are Messrs. Shields, Meagher,
Frank Patterson, 3toncHiao, &erry, Sicktef,

The Secretary of War;
Mr. StaktoK, the present Soore&iry of War,
entered upon hie datiee* yeflterday. It Is Mid,'
that among hir first aots was the removal of
the rails in the Hails, which barred access to
the Secretary’s rooms, to all modest and gen
tlemanly men. That vwae a good; movement,
and bespeaks a disposition to L meet >and dis
pose of all business which may come before
hlmy-without subjecting the caller to the hu
miliation of being snubbed by a burly subor
dinate at the bar. -
Groat expectations are entertained of the •
new Secretary. Mr. Fobney, in his “Occa
sional” letter, says:
Rest assured ho will make some new points
in tbe-maoagement of thebampnign» and may
startle some of the olil proprietors who were
so horrified .because Gen. Cameron refused to
recommend that the urar sbould be cohdueledl
on the rosewater Dish, and that-'the liberated
slaves should be clothed'and fed, and not per-:
mitted to fight against their old oppressors. :
The relations between the retiring Secretary
and Mr, Stanton are of the most cordial char
acter. Mr. Stanton, has been the legal .ad
viser: ani confidential, friend of. Secretary
Cameron from tbe brjgahitation of the Admin
istration. They breakfasted together, with a
nnmber of friends,'at General Cameron's resi
dence, yesterday- morning. During all of
•Saturday,-General Cameron remained at tbe
'Department, but refused to transact >any
‘ business'save that, which was neceseery to
Government operations. .
It Is now sjtid that Mr. Cauebun’r anti
slavory views had nothing fo r do with his re
moval, and tbit Mri SrANtok'B on.that ques
tion ore very similar to bis predecessor’s) end
not at all -disagreeable io ( tbd Preaideni.: The
well informed .correspondent of the ; Chicago
Tribun* says r .
Vet the best authorities i can find oonear
Id say iog that Mr. precisely
.with Mr* Cameron as to the Blavery question
end the vigorous prosecution of the war.'
Both Mr. Chase ana Mr;Samherare satisfied
with the appointment on.this store, .SorgreaY
a reaotion as..the of. a known pro
slavery'man for the vacancy,‘would probatfly
provo fatal to the Administration and the
country. ; The Senate wpald;pot.oon&ra> such,
an I v Mr* ..Chase
would not saqotioq ft by; remaining in' office
after it was. made.. ' ’ .
The New Yoi;k has entirely changed
its views with jcrg&rdito the causes Of ttenerai
Causbon's removal; Itnowsaya:
A vigorous effort has been made to create
,the impression that Mr. Cameron has boon re
moved on account of his: Anti-Slavery. senti.-.
menu—aad that a mas. of oppositeAmthostile;
views has taken his plaoe.-^Atthe,outset we,
foil into the.same hclief, but we are satisfied
it; is wholly incorrect, .. Mr. Stuntoh~i3. cer-,
tainly not an Abolitionist—but we have abun
dant evidence of the fact that his devotion :
to the Union -far outweighs bis regard for
Slavery, and ; that he stands ready and re-'
solved to take any steps that may preserve the
Union. 1
Prom Mr. Stastom's well known antece
dents and character, it is morally certain that
if slavery stands in the way of bis crushing'
ont the rebellion, he will not hesitate to crush
slavery .and the rebellion together. ; He has
nt> love for it, no prejudice in Us favor to over
come. He does sot etand in awo i bf. it, or of
slave masters, and he -is ready toi take the
consequences of the ntcessites
of the case may requiEtt|k marching direct to
hU purpose of -rebellion.

The Battle of the Gunboats—Rebels
Defeated.
- The following official report of the Gunboat
engagement,! on the near Colum
bus, has been received at the Navy Depart
ment..
IfsiTsn States Gckboat Es&Cx, \
Wm. It Porter, Com’g, Ft. Jeflenou, dan. 13,15G2. j
Flag-Officer A. H. Foote— Sir: On the
morning of the 11 tb Gen. McClernand sent on
board this vessel and informed-me that the
enemy were moving np the river from Colum
bus with several vessels, towing up a battery.
I immediately signalled Lient. Com. Paulding
of the St. Louis, to get under way and pre-.:
pare /oraotion. A very thick fog coming on
wewerqcompelled to steam' slowly down* the
riverj but'about 10 o’clock, or a little after, it
rose,*and showed ua a large .steamer at the
head of Lucase's -Bend. We heard her whistle
the moment we were' seen by them. Shortly
-after whistling she was joined by another
Urge and a small steamer. We pursued our
course. steadily down the river, , and when
-withfn ioijg range the large steamer fired a
heavy shell-gun, which struck the sand-bar;
"betweenus, and ricocheited within about 200
yariid of this .Vessel, and bursted. We ai this
time did not return the fire, but continued our
course!doWn -in order to near the vessel..
By this time the large steamerwas r joincd
by her and they'opened a brisk fire
upon us: I now bailed Lient,: Commanding
Paulding,.and directed him to try one of bis
rifle cannon. He instantly fired and sent his
shot completely 'over t the enemy. I then
opened from', my bow?guns,.and the action
became brisk on both ildes for about; twenty
minutes, the enemy firing by broadsides. At
the end of this time the enemy hauled'off,
and'stood down the river, rounding to occa
eionplly.an.d giving ub broadsides. TUie ran
ning fight continued until he reached'the
shelter of the batteries bn the Iron Banks
above Columbus. ■' We continued the . action,
and.drove him behind his batteries .in u
crippled Wodi'tlon. We could distinctly
tea o«ir shells explodo on his deoks. The-ac
tion lasted, oyer an .hour, and .terminated, as
I think, in acomplato defeat ,of the enemy V
boats, superior In aTze'ahdnumber of' guns'tO
the Essex and St.' Louib,-- *•>-»
Dn the 12th requested.me
to make a xecohnoissance toward the Iron
Banks'. I did so, and offered the enebry bat -
tie by Bring s'round shot at their battery, but.
they,,did.not respond, nor. did, 1 see any,thing
.of their boats. I have since'been'informed,'
throhgb the. General, that' the boats' of the
enemy were completely disabled, and the panic,
became so.great at .the Iron Banks that tbo
gunners their guns'.' The fire of die
St. Louis was precise, and the shot* told welL.
Tne officers and men of. this , vessel behaved
with firmness,' Mr. Bitey, .the first Master,'
carrying'out all'my orders strictly, whiie : t£rt
officers of- the gun divisions/Messrs. .Loving*
’andrFerry, paid: particular; attention to the

Sib : I forward a report from-Commander
Porter. The rebel gunboat shelisall fell-short
of onr boats, while oar shell reached ;and
ranged beyond their boats, showing the greater*
range of our guns, but the escape of the. rebels
showed the greater speed of Iheir boats.
