AN IRREPRESSIBLE REBEL.:On the last trip up of the Express which arrived here yesterday from Parkersburg, a rebel whose name we could not learn, made himself very offensive by talking treason and yelling for Jeff Davis. He became involved, in consequence, in a difficulty with Lieut. Frost of the 11th West Virginia Infantry, and it was finally rendered necessary to tie him up until the boat arrived at the landing.
