The news front wt stern Virginia ¬
portant. Grafton has been taken posses
sion of by Federal troops, the rebels hav
ingevneuted it Tfofe Sunday tie,ht, in nn
ticin ition of an attttk from the west. The
1st Virginia nnd IG.h Ohio regiment
have gone to Gn.fion, and the 14 h Ohi
regiment is at Parkerbburg, on the Ohio
river, Virg'tti t side. It is thought that
the plans for cu 'irti:' off communication
from Ilarpei'u Ferry have been to effectu
al that the ubtta will soon abandon it as
they have Grafton. Gen Butler has made
no hostile movements from Fort Monroe
yet, and will net until he receives rtin
forcements. It is supposed he will have
the n quired number in a few Joys. The
rebels are actively engaged iu planting
batteries ou the James liver and at its
mouth, within sight and beyond the range
of Fort Monroe. Arrangements are near
ly completed fer stopping nil connection
between Harper's Ferry and Richmond.
The Manassus G;ip Junction of the Or
ange nnd Alexandria and Manassus Gap
railroads will soon be taken, which will
control the movements of the rebels for
large extent of couutry, and be eppecia'ly
advat tageous in breaking communication
between Northern and Southern Virginia
Since Gen. Butler declared Slaves to be
contraband of war, he has had a plenty
of calls from them, asking to bo confiscat
ed. They like it, and the general don't
find it disagreeable or inconvenient. The
first and second Ohio regiments marched
across the Long Biidge, Wednesday, and
are neat- Arlington Ilights. The Border
State Convention is a failure; but few are
present and some States are not repre
81 nted at all. What few have collected
together ate talking about "Crittenden's
Compromise" as an ultimatum: poor souls.
Lieut. Siemmer has arrived in Washing
tin. The Government fully endorses the
lite action of Gen. Butler in holding the
slaves of rebeiious southerns as contra
band of war. Four additional Illinois
regiments have been accepted into the
regular service. Several bridges on B.

destroyed by the rebels.

Treason.
1
The proper idea of treason teems to
bate fade! out in the public mind. Our
revolutionary fathers nlaced it unon an
equality with murder, and provided a
mote secure punishment for it, adding
toafisoathn ol property to death. The
law g vers of all ages and cations cave
had 1 tie anmo idea of it. And yet, in our
touctry, treason is O'tnly avowed by per
soni of all tanks aud professions, even
cleTgitnsn ; nor do they hesitate pub
licly to commit over sets; and even old
and moderate men like Crittenden, Bell
and others, do not hesitate to eounel op
portion t i the Government, if it under
takes t j put down tn ftion.
This present treason has already ruin
ed, financially, hundreds of thonnsnds of
innocent and worthy men, -it will )rtv

treason, so the punishment should be
commessursto and co extensive wuh tha
crime. And as our country, differing with,
other countries, and for the greater pro
tection of liberty, ha made treason to

An Extensive Camp.

The New York Tribune publishes on
interesting account of the great camp and
military chocl which has been commeno
ed on S:aten Island, near Vanderbilt
Landing. Tho War Department intends
to keep a reserve of 50,000 to GO.OOO

The recruits, ns fast B3 collected thiough
out the Department of the East, will be
concentrated at Camp Scott, nnd sent for

tho f ervice may require. The camp is to
be entrenched, mounted wilh titled can

strict martial law. The different arms of
the Ret vice infantry, cavalry and artil
lery will each be put through a regular
course c f instructions, lines of pickets and
scouts will be thrown out, so as to prevent
tho approach to camp of any improper
persons, and the military discipline of the
men will be perfect in nny respect. All

The Albany Argus holds the following

This war has now commenced. It

a belligerent. Its armies have invaded
the loyal States of the Union. It men
aces Washington. Its rulers have offer
