Fremont is not disposed to push his infamous policy, as proclaimed by him, to the bitter end, or that some of his officers have been doing an important thing without his authority. Of twenty-five Lincolnites prisoners held by Gen. Thompson, only three were willing to be exchanged. The exchange was formally made, the proper documents being drawn up and signed by all the parties. After this, the Federal and Confederate officers dined together pleasantly, and spent an hour or so in amicable discourse, each side endeavoring to outdo the other in courtesy.

Night before last, at eight o'clock, says the New Orleans Bulletin, of Wednesday, the evacuation of Ship Island by the Louisiana troops was completed, the fort dismantled, and the guns, ammunition, &c., removed. This work was performed under the supervision of Col. Duncan and Lieut. Col. Allen, assisted by Capt. Bond, Lieut. Bridges, and Lieut. Simmes, of the regular service.

The same train brings information that Col. Siegel is now in St. Louis, around and in which are about thirty thousand Federal troops. When our informant last saw Siegel he was in company with the delectable Fremont, on his way to visit Prince Napoleon. Kentucky Pluck. We extract the Siegel he was in company with the delectable Fremont, on his way to visit Prince Napoleon. Kentucky Pluck. We extract the following spirited paragraphs from the Louisville Courier, of Tuesday: &We presume there is not a Kentuckian, not base enough to be a slave, who is not getting his arms in readiness for the rapidly-approaching conflict. And when Kentuckians bare their red right arm in battle, their enemies may well call upon the hills and the mountains to fall upon and cover them from their vengeance and fury." Kentucky refused to fight the South when called on by Lincoln's Secretary of War. She wil
