Johnston and Beauregard. The train cou- ductor, when seized and obarged with his treason, confessed to having been tampered with by the enemy, and to have received the sum of eight hundred dollars to contrive to defeat the union of our forces, tio soon ns he reached Manassas, he was tried, and ordered by Gen. Beauregard to be shot. It is only by such stern and severe examples, that treason oan be put down, and our soldiers preserved from destruction. Our informant learned that, on the same day, a like stern visitation of justice was meted out to a lecreant Geor gian, oaught in the act of piloting the enemy in (heir march on our lines. A Rich Hpeclmen of the Aurora Horeall*. From the New York Herald, July 31. How to End the War by next May.—Con gress has voted 600,000 men and $500,000,- 000 to carry on the war in whioh the govern ment is embarked to put down the great re bellion. There is nothing left for us but to go through it; but the questiou is, bow it can be carried to a speedy termination; for a long, languishing war would be destructive to every interest. The plan, then, is to raise 600,000 men instead of 600,000, and to raise a loan of $600,000,000 instead of $500,000,000. The defeat at Bull Run will make the war coat us $100,000,000 more than would have been necessary had not that foolish advance on Richmond been made. Under the organizing mind of McClellan, let the 600,000 meu be sent to some twenty or thirty camps of in struction, and, after being duly drilled and formed into corps under the best officers, let 200,000 be placed on the line of the Potomac by next October, and then let 200,000 be sent down the Mississippi, capturing all the cities on its banks, including New Orleans. Then let 200,000 more be sent by sea to operate in sundry columns from the Atlantic coast, cap turiog Charleston, Savannah, Mobile aud Pensacola. As nearly the whole fighting el ement of the South is now in Virginia, the ootton States would be rapidly conquered; for the rebel army between Richmond and Vir ginia could not go to their relief, with 200,- 000 Union troops in their rear, on the banks of the Potomac, ready to march after them, taking Richmond on the way. As the slaVs are mostly to be found in the cotton States\these contraband goods would become spoils of war, together with all the real and personal estate of the secessionists, in pursuance of toe act recently introduced into Congress confiscating all the property of the rebels—houses, lands, horses and negroes. The slaveholders in the revolted States num ber about 800,000. ’J heir slaves number about 3,000,000. There are about 750,000 poor whites, heads of families, in those States, who have no slaves and no intereat in slavery. Let the slaves be sold to them at $25 per head, the price of a live Yankee oaught at sea by the privateer* of Jefferson Davis—the terms to be either cash or credit, to be re deemed in cotton. This sale would at once create a majority of Union men throughout the South, while it would realize a sum of seven hundred and fifty millions of dollars, whioh would pay the expenses of the war.— Then the cotton of the present slaveholders, which will be found accumulated at the sea ports and other points, must also be seized and sold to England aud France. - Tho pro ceeds of this sale would give us a handsome profit on the war, filling the treasury and saving our government the necessity of tax ation by revenue, or iu any other shape, for years to come. Thu* would the war be fin ished, peace established and the Union restor ed. And all this may bo done before the 1st of May, 1H62. If it be not done, it will only be because we have not the right kind of meu to comprehend the plan or to carry out the programme. Greeley Fledged to give up tlie struggle. Some two weeks ago the New York Tribqjie published an article containing the following passages: The simple question to be decided is—arc Northern men the equals of Southern ? or are they poltroons, who will run at the sight of a line of advancing bayonets? And one fair battle will settle this conclusively. There is no need of a long war—no chance for it, un less policy and craft will *o havs it. Lst fifty thousand dtfendera of the Union beat as many rebela in fair battle, and the wur will he sub stantially ended. If, as we rejoice to hear, Gen. Scott is now ready to try conclusions with Jeff. Davis and Beauregard, the war is near ita end. We say this in no boastful spirit—we concede the possibility of the rebels proving the stronger party; but, if they do, let us frankly own it, and promptly arrest the wanton effusion of blood. And if they cannot keep the field against us, they will do likewise.” In another editorial which appeared subse quently, the Tribune says: “ This war is costing the Government from twenty to forty millions of dollars per month, and the country—in the disruption and stag nation of its industry—a good deal more. We are naturally anxious—being ouraelvea heavy sufferers along with onr neighbors—to see this deplorable state of things brought to an end at the earliest noasihle moment. We be lieve the misery endured every week through out the land, because of idleness and want, outweighs the suffering that would result from twe or three smart battlns. In short, we believe the patriot soldiers are to day able and eager to whip the rebel*, and we want to *«* them allowed to try. If they art not able to thrash the trailers in a fair, stand up fight, ourpride revolt* at the idea of alowly starv ing them into subjection, or whipping them by virtue of money borrowed in Europe. W'e ■ay, challenge them to meet the patriot volun teer* in fair fight; if they qnail they are ruin ed ; if they fight and are beaten, they must give it np; while if they beat m, we ongkt to do the same. Let ns have this matter decided foithwith, so that our brave men may quit •oldleriog and return to more profitable vo cation*.”
