Gen. Fremont.

--The enormous levies of General Fremont upon the Federal purse in Missouri have by no means alienated the affections of his loyal lieges in the city of St. Louis. He was received upon his arrival in that place rather as a conqueror than a detested plak-pocket, and an immense torchlight procession shed a glorifying glow upon his brilliant financial achievements. As the present war is one of avowed rapine and robbery, we receive that the admirers of Fremont acted with logical consistency in doing honor to their piratical chieftain. It is another example of the ingratitude of Republics that Fremont, who, in robbing the Federal treasury by wholesale, showed his eminent qualifications for plundering the South, should be dismissed from the service of his country just when he was fully prepared to make himself useful.--If in two months he could steal two millions from his friends, what could he not have done if he had been 1st loose among his enemies?
