aimouneing the coming' of large numbers of
thtsnwaekers, Col. Sweet., the commaddant
.
at Camp oug as, was
and orders at once fbr the arrest of the des
perhdoes on their arrival were isstted. The
fact leaked out, and the faithhil found means
to apprise their friends, and the buishtvack
ers left the train at the city limits and scat
ternd in various directions. Thb military
and police are constantly kcetiring the city,
and have picked up hundreds of them.
A propeller, with nearly a hundred sus
picious characters, arrived this Enornieg from
Canada, and all will be Captured. Cul. Sweet
has for some time beiin aware of a rebel plot
to release the prisoners at Camp Douglas,
and burn the city. Ills detectives have been
at work, and with success, and, though the
evidence obtained is not sufficiently conclu
sive to warrant the iirrest of these hundted
conspirators, it was deemed necessary to
strike at once such Ones as were uuquestion•
ably treasonable. Captain Nelson, of th 6 city
police, was despatched to the house of Dr.
Edwards to arrest Col. Vincent MarmdUuke,
brother of the rebel general. At the same
time a detachment of military proceeded to
the Richmond House, and captured the reb
el Col. G. St. Leger, Greenfield Morghn, ad
jutant general, and J. T. Shanks, an escaped
rebel prisoner. B. S. Morris, a man noted
for his hatred of the Nofth, was also arrested.
They are all now in Cathp Douglas. In a
despatch to General Cook; this morning, Col.
Sweet says c "I have conipleto proof of his
having assisted Shanks, the rebel prisoner, to
escape, and of his plotting to release the pri
soners at this camp.''
Meantime another detaclintent of military
invested the residence of Charles Walsh near
Camp Douglas. His house was entered and
portion of the contents taken to the camp.
Captain Cantrell and a private named Char
les Traverse, both belonging to the rebel ser
vie°, were there, and were arrested As spies.
In Wals44's house were found two hundred
stand of arms, with all the necessafy ammu
nition, and two cart-loads of large revolvers,
loaded and tapped ready for use.
In• regard to the arrest of Walsh, Colonel
Sweet Lays he has evidence enough against
him to insure his swinging for treason. Col.
Sweet has proofs in his possession that it
was the plan of the rebel conspirators and
Horne traitors to release the rebel prisoners
at Camp Douglas and burn the city. The
bamp was to have been attacked on two Sides
to-morrow bight, the prisoners released; dud
the city pillaged and burned.
Simultaneously with the above arrest by
the military, the police entered a room in a
building adjoining the Matteson-House, and
captured tire large boxes of loaded guns con
cealed there.

who has been' relieved on accedrit bf severe

- In' the - fight-which Moseby had on Sunday
last, near Aldie, with a portion of the men of
the Bth Illinois Cavalry, he lost seven men
killed, several Woultded, and some fifteen who
were taken priSoners: This comes from a.
source Which has always proved correct, and
thereforeis entitled to the strictest credit.

his wife, quite an aged womaq, severely abus

in finding tWo hundred and fifty dollars in

lay hande upon, pen to the old man's coat
and boots.
The Motley Was the hard-earned savings of
several years' industry, and the loss of it,
with the clothing, bedding, blankets, &e.,
leaves the aged pair in a truly destitute con
dition. Yesterday the aged couple came to
the city; and permission was given them to
carry out supplies. They had not"been gone
long ere the Secesh raised a cry that they
were smuggling goods to the rebels. A re
serve was sent out, who overhauled.them, and
