On this it depends for success. It seems that the Federals intend to continue menacing both Columbus and Bowling Green, and that with a force only to be resisted from our entrenchments; and that another force is to march on, if it can, to Nashville, via Scottsville and the Bowling Green and Nashville Railroad. This expedition to Nashville will be under the command of McCook.--Crittenden is to cross the Green river, and moving on Hopkinsville, threaten our line of retreat over the Memphis branch of the Louisville and Nashville Railroad.

Menaced by traitors, alacrity, daring, courageous spirit and patriotic zeal on all occasions and under every circumstance are expected from the army of the United States. Official announcement of the victory. Washington, Jan. 22, 1862. --The following was received at headquarters to-night: Louisville, Jan. 22, 1862. To Major-General McClellan, Commanding United States Army: The rout of the enemy was complete. After succeeding in getting two pieces of artillery across the river and upwards of fifty wagons, they were abandoned with all the ammunition in the depot in Mill Spring. They then threw away their arms and dispersed through the mountain by ways in the direction of Monticello but are so completely demoralized that I do not believe they will make a stand short of Tennessee.

The Yankees did not bombard the town, as has been reported, but destroyed all the property within their reach. It is supposed that they were informed, in reference to the property and unprotected condition of the place, by fishermen in the neighborhood. The Federal Secretary of War on the Union victory in Kentucky. Stanton, the Federal Secretary of War, has issued a general order thanking the Yankee troops for their bravery, &c., in the late Ration at Somerset. He says: The their entrenchments, and paused not until the enemy was completely routed, merits and receives commendation. The purpose of this war is to pursue and destroy a rebellious enemy, and to deliver the country from danger.

uperiority in numbers. Some say the Federals have it, some say they have not. We can only trust in God that even this plan, the ablest, in every respect, laid down in this war, will be baffled by the same bravery that defeated the no plan at Manassas. A glance at them will enable the reader to understand it, and to see that menaced by a superior force in front, with one on his flank and another on his rear, with an unobstructed route to Nashville, our brave and able General would be likes Napoleon at Rivoll, in a position whence only an eagle-like rapidity in the calculation and use of time could extricate him victorious. Again we ask, have they the numbers? for that after all is the question. If they have, the great battle of the campaign may have to be fought along that range of hills, which a few miles north of Nashville afford a series of natural defences of great strength. Our men are brave. Gen. Hardee is a well trained, a skillful and practiced leader; our cause i

Our loss was thirty-nine killed and one hundred and twenty-seven wounded. Among the wounded were Colonel McCook, of the Ninth Ohio, commanding a brigade, and his aid, Lieutenant Burt, of the Eighth United States infantry. The loss of the rebels was Zollicoffer and one hundred and fourteen others killed and buried, one hundred and sixteen wounded, and forty-five prisoners not wounded, five of whom are surgeons, and Lieutenant-Colonel Carrier, of the Seventeenth Tennessee Regiment. General Thomas. D. C. Burl, Brigadier-General Com'dg. Hon. John J. Crittenden. Hon. John J. Crittenden is deeply affected by the news from Kentucky, and has not been in the House since the report of the battle of Somerset was received. Although he has two sons in the Union army the presence of one in the rebel army — his oldest — overwhelms him with grief. The report that Gen.

idity with which he faced the foe where balls fell thickest, leading and encouraging the troops, is the theme of unmeasured praise on the lips of every officer and soldier from the field whom we have met. Col. Cummings was the first to raise a regiment in East Tennessee for the defence of the South in the commencement of the present revolution. He had previously served with distinguished credit in the Mexican war. He will be remembered by the brave fellows who stood by him on the fatal 19th of January, even though "republics should prove ungrateful." Knoxville Register. The Alabama pike. The State of Alabama is arming her troops for coast service with a very effective weapon. The Mobile correspondent of the Memphis Appeal thus describes it: "The Alabama pike consists of a keen, two-edged, steel head, like a large bowie-knife blade, near a foot and a half long, with a sickle like hook, very sharp, bending back from near the socket. This is intended for cutting the bridle

They then threw away their arms and dispersed through the mountain by ways in the direction of Monticello but are so completely demoralized that I do not believe they will make a stand short of Tennessee. The property captured on this side of the river is of great value, amounting to eight 6-pounders and two Parrott guns, with caissons filled with ammunition; about one hundred four-horses wagons, and upwards of 1,200 horses and mules, several boxes of arms which had never been opened, and from 500 to 1,000 muskets, mostly with flint locks, but in good order; subsistence stores enough to serve the entire command for three days; also, a large amount of hospital stores.

The gallant behavior of this noble officer, in endeavoring to rally our forces and maintain a stand after Zollicoffer's fall, in the battle of Fishing Creek, and the intrepidity with which he faced the foe where balls fell thickest, leading and encouraging the troops, is the theme of unmeasured praise on the lips of every officer and soldier from the field whas thirty-nine killed and one hundred and twenty-seven wounded.
