Kentucky--that in defending the homes and institutions of our old mother State we defend our own — that her cause is our cause, and that the oldest, heretofore boastfully proud daughter, should share equally the trials, burdens, and oppressions of her generous, patriotic mother. Yes, "dulce est pro patrio" when God, justice, and all the better impulses of human patriotism demand it, We have — regiments here now, under the command of Brigadier General H. R. Jackson, only 30 miles from Gen. Lee, 24 from Monterey. 71 from Stannion, and a from the headquarters of the enemy on Cheat Mountain! Our troops here are a healthy, vigorous set of men, as determined and full of the spirit of "go addictiveness" as any equal number of men on the face of God's green earth. Large, robust fellows, with unshaven faces, they do not much belle (in appearance) their self-adopted sobriquets of "tigers," "catamounts," &c.

They weighed sixteen pounds. The patriotic mother and two of the "boys" are doing well — the other little fellow was not so well, though hopes are entertained that he, too, will yet be a man. They are to be named Johnston, Lee and Beauregard.-- Rockingham Register.

An appeal to the public of Richmond. --We ask the attention of all whom it may concern (and whom does it not concern?) to the subjoined communication from an officer of the corps serving under Gen. Lee. We have not the least doubt that it will be responded to cheerfully by all persons having it in their power to afford the desired relief. The tobacconists of Richmond especially could render golden service to their country by placing each at the command of the proper authorities a small portion of the weed. These men are p in a service which to call merely arduous and dangerous were to understate its peculiar characteristics. For any little comfort, therefore, which can be afforded them, without drawing largely upon the bounty of individuals or the public, they ought not to suffer. None but those who have been accustomed to the use of tobacco can form any idea of the suffering which the want of it inflicts upon a regular consumer of the weed. We hope this appeal will not be i

Lee's command. --According to a letter received at this office — dated August 29th, at Valley Mountain — the camp of Gen. Lee was still at that place. The weather continued to be very bad and the roads horrible. A body of the enemy, reported 2,000 strong, was at Crouch's seventeen miles off — another at Huttonville, twenty-three miles off, a third at Beverly, (thirty-two miles,) and a fourth on Cheat Mountain. In all, they were about 10,000 strong. The weather and roads had prevented a letter received at this office — dated August 29th, at Valley Mountain — the camp of Gen. Lee was still at that place.
