Do not encumber the Pittsburg road, as other troops may have to pass you. You will follow Withers's division to Monterey, and then take on your brigade to that place (Colonel Gibson's First Brigade). From Monterey you take the Purdy road, Withers one to the right of it. Captain Jenkins, in command of four companies of cavalry, will report to you. Captain Steele (engineers), will assign you a guide. If you cannot reach your position to-night do so early to-morrow. (Signed), Braxton Bragg, Major-General Commanding.

General Bragg, in his report of the battle of Shiloh, dated April 30, 1862, states that the road to Monterey, eleven miles, was found very bad, r

Barnes, with his battery, reporting to General Steele, engaged the rear guard of the enemy at and beyond Cloutierville with fine effect, firing 215 rounds of ammunition. Captain Barnes and his men exhibited coolnemy repeatedly, at 600 and 800 yards, with considerable effect. From the 2nd to the 8th May inclusive, Captain Mosely, with his battery, reporting to Brigadier-General Steele, was engaged in many affairs with the enemy on Bayou Rapides. On the 5th and 7th, at Middle Bayou, Graham's and Long's, he was of efficient service in checking advances of the enemy made in great force. On the 6th and 7th, Captain H. C. West, with his battery, also reported to Brigadier-General Steele. On the 7th, Mosely's and West's batteries covered the withdrawal of our forces over Gordon's bridge, driving back the enemy, when they pressed on too rapidly, and deliverin

ho fell back slowly, fighting with persistence and vigor. Among the commands most heavily engaged was the Kentucky brigade, which for four or five hours held its position near Shiloh Church against a large force of the enemy. Its losses were heavy. Among the killed were Maj. Thomas B. Monroe, Jr., Adjutant Forman and Lieutenant Dooley of the Fourth Kentucky. LieutenantCol-onel Hynes, Capts. Jos. P. Nuckols, Ben J. Monroe, T. W. Thompson and J. M. Fitzhenry, and Lieuts. John B. Moore, Thomas Steele, S. O. Peyton and George B. Burnley were among the wounded. Detailing these casualties the report of Colonel Trabue adds: And here also fell that noble patriot, Gov. George W. Johnson, after having fought in the ranks of Capt. Ben Monroe's company (E, Fourth Kentucky) with unfaltering bravery from early Sunday morning to this unhappy moment. Governor Johnson had accompanied the army on its retreat from Bowling Green, and went to the battlefield on the staff of General Breckinridge on

Kentucky. Minister Preston Summoned to Washington--excitement in Kentucky--trouble Brewing. Louisville Aug. 23 --Minister Preston has been called to Washington from Lexington — for what purpose, it is not known. Nor is it known that he will go. His family is here. Thomas Steele, who was in the battle at Manassas, on his return south ward, (towards Tennessee,) was arrested and searched on authority of a dispatch from Frankfort. It is stated that previous to his departure he was closeted with Governor McGoffin. He had, however, only personal and family letters in his possession, including several to Arnold Harris. Kentucky politics are becoming daily more rancorous. It is stated that if Garrett Davis visits Washington he will insist on having disbanded or removed the enlisted troops in camp in Garrard county. The ultra and conservative troops are quarrel lang--[i. e., The extreme Union or Lincoln men and those opposed to hostilities. Let them quarrel
