Gen. Fremont's prospects in the West. The following editorial, which we copy from the New York Tribune, our readers will find worthy of a perusal: The facts that Gen. Fremont is at, if not west of, Jefferson City, the capital of MissouriGen. Fremont is at, if not west of, Jefferson City, the capital of Missouri, which is but 120 miles from Lexington, now the rebel focus in that State--that the rebels mean to take Booneville and Jefferson City, preparatory to an attack on St. Louis — that Gen. F., on the other hand, is strongly suspected of designs against f the Missouri river and the railroad aforesaid are advantages to the Unionists which cannot fail to be improved. Gen. Fremont is, with regard to military operations of magnitude, and untried commander. His fitness to lead thousands is now to bfor $10 each, and that the Government has since tried to buy them back for $20. Had but these arms been sent promptly to Fremont, instead of being so fooled away, we believe affairs in Missouri would have worn a far brighter aspect to-day. To buy s

"The Charming young Jessie." --Mrs. Jessie Benton Fremont has taken the field in defence of her husband. Many think she is the better General of the two. Thus far, at least, she has shown decidedly more energy than the real General; for, while he was suffering McCulloch to beat and kill Lyon, and Price to capture Lexingt. Louis in their respective dens, and kicking up a great fuss generally all over the Western country. She has established her own fame, and settled the status of Fremont for all time to come.--Hereafter he will be known as Jessie Benton's husband, just as a distinguished Philadelphian was known as the man who married Fanny Kemble,ith respect to the Bourbons, that the Duchess of Angouleme was the only man of the family. Any man who should predicate this of Jessie's position in the House of Fremont, would probably not be so far wrong as the uninitiated are prone to suppose. At any rate, Jessie is a lady of spirit, and like lady Gay Spanker will not suffer "

as Chief of the Staff, as he shall deem best. I repeat that it has at no time been decided either to arrest or remove Gen. Fremont, and it is authoritatively reiterated to-day that nothing but the imperative demands of public interest shall induce tone for Missouri all will be lost there. The Attorney General is unreserved in his expression of opinion concerning General Fremont, and does not hesitate to pronounce his retention a public crime. Mr. Bates is in receipt daily of letters from imp The Missouri imbroglio. There was a Cabinet meeting this afternoon, in which the charges of Colonel Blair against Gen. Fremont, and the counter charges of Gen. Fremont against Col. Blair, were under consideration. The principal charges against Gen. Fremont against Col. Blair, were under consideration. The principal charges against the Commander are that he sacrificed Gen. Lyon; that he neglected to reinforce Col. Mulligan when he had the power to do so, and kept Col. Mulligan's messenger, sent to ask aid, waiting three days before he saw him; that his expenditures of money wer

ky, and it is the general determination to make her the battle-ground. Sherman's column is reinforce by one or two regiments from the North daily. Sherman issued an order at Louisville, on the 9th inst., in which he says that the chief in the different departments of his military department are directed to make estimates at once for funds adequate to supplying an arm of 60,000 men. A dispatch from Jefferson City, dated on the 8th inst., says that Col. Mathews had telegraphed to Gov. Gamble from Herman, saying that he was compelled to surrender his camp, with 400 men with three cannon, to superior force. Union men from Lexington, Mo., deny that there has been any session of the Missouri Legislature recently held there. Fremont left Jefferson City on the 7th inst., in pursuit of Price. It is reported that he expected to concentrate at Sedalia not less than 35,000 men and 100 pieces of cannon. Gen., Price, it is reported, has directed his course to the South.

urned to his business in New York, which demands his personal attention. Jessie Fremont and Old Blair. Mrs. Jessie Benton Fremont, while on her recent visit to Washington to ferret out the origin of the hostility which had manifested itself nt, during which Mr. Blair, Sr., father of the Postmaster General and Frank P. Blair, were present Mr. Blair turned to Mrs. Fremont and said.--"Mrs. Fremont, allow me to say to you that, in my judgment, madam, your proper place is at the head of yourMrs. Fremont, allow me to say to you that, in my judgment, madam, your proper place is at the head of your husband's household at St. Louis, and this intermeddling with the affairs of the State is, to say the least of it, in very bad taste on your part; and, in conclusion, I wish you to understand that here is where we make men and unmake them." To which Mrs. Fremont instantly replied:--"Mr. Blair, permit me to say to you that I have seen some men of your making, and if they are the best you can do I would advise you to quit the business."
