rebellion. The reasons assigned for this sage conclusion are based upon these hypotheses: "First, it cuts the inland defensive line of the enemy — cuts it in two, and makes an opening through which our forces on the ground may pass into East Tennessee and occupy those important railway and telegraphic communications between the rebel government and the rebel army in Virginia and their confederates, supplies and reinforcements of the South western States, Thus our army, from Somerset, is now in a position to march forward and completely separate the rebels in Virginia from the rebels of the Southwest, and to liberate in East Tennessee, and all that surrounding mountainous region, a hundred thousand loyal Union men. Secondly, hrough this opening Gen. Ruell may move up into the rear of Richmond, or over into South or North Carolina, in co-operation with our seaboard land and water forces. Thirdly, the local advantages gained by this Somerset victory comprehend the control of the ne
--The follow dispatch, dated at Knexville last night, has been received here: Gen. Crittenden rallied his forces at Monti cello, and will make a stand there. Monticello is only twenty-five miles from Somerset. The flying, frightened fugitives have greatly exaggerated our disaster. Nashville, Jan. 24, (via Mobile, 25.)--The most reliable information we have received here of the engagement at or near Somerset is to the effect that only two regiments--Col. Battle's Tennessee and Col. Statham's Mississippi--Were engaged in the fight near Mill Springs. The estimated number of our killed and wounded, and prisoners taken from us, varies from three to five hundred. Gen. Crittenden, with nearly all his force, is now at Monticello. Stores and equipments are being sent to him. The Confederates, after spiking their cannon, threw them into the river. The enemy got but one cannon. They also got about two thousand horses and mules, and three hundred wagons.
to draft resolutions: Col. J. G. Pickett, Maj. Gen. Lovell, Brig. Gen. Huggles, Commodore Holline, W. A. Johnson, A. L. Davis, W. J. Berry, Alex. Fall, D. M. Kildreth, M. Hilcher, and J. C. Goodrich, which reported the following resolutions: Resolved, That we have received the intelligence of the death of Gen. Felix K. Zollicoffer with feelings of the profoundest sorrow, and lament his untimely end as an irreparable loss to the cause for which he heroically gave his life. In private life, or in discharging public duties, we always found him an incorruptible patriot. Cool and collected amidst troubles, he was unfaltering in the execution of his purposes. No man, since Gen Andrew Jackson, enjoyed so completely the confidence and undivided esteam of the people of Tennessee. Resolved, That we mourn his death as a great public loss, which is only relieved by the recollection that he fell fighting bravely at the head of his column, against the invaders of his country.

They were a lot of negroes belonging to the estate of L. D. Franklin, deceased, and before and at the time of his death a resident of an adjoining neighborhood, and was one of our wealthlest citizens. His estate, clear of lia
ce of Yankees at Murray, Ky. The Bowling Green Courier, of the 22d says, that instead of ten or twelve thousand. Yankees occupying Murray, Calloway county, as reported, the number consists only of 3,000 infantry and 500 cavalry. They are under command of Gen. Smith, from Paducah. His object doubtless is to destroy the railroad at Paris, Tenn., and thus break the communication between Memphis and Bowling Green, and capture or destroy the army stores there. Federal progress in North Tennessee--occupation of Murray, Ky.--Paris Threatened — alarmed excitement of the people. The Memphis Argus, of January 20th, says: Three gentlemen who arrived at Paris before the departure of the train for this city, brought information that the Federals had advanced in force to Murray, Kentucky, only twenty-five miles north of Paris. That they would continue their march to Paris, between which and Murray, we learn, there is no Confederate force sufficient to resist them, was genera
The African Colonixation Society has falled to work out any results this year. It has but $1,100 now in the treasury. It sent no emigrants to Liberis during the year, although 98, emancipated in Virginia, Louisiana, and Tennessee, were to have left the country in May, but were prevented by political troubles from doing so. At the forty-fifth anniversary meeting of the Society, held in New York Mr. Latross of Baltimore and of wars among the speakers.
