the Federals are making in that State are more important than anything hitherto developed. General Buckner. It will be seen, had occupied Bowling Green; another account represents him at Elizabethtown, near which a railroad bridge had been burnt by the Confederates; and the latest advices contain a rumor that he was at Muldraugh's hill, an excellent strategic point, only thirty-three miles from Louisville. A few days will doubtless develop startling events in Kentucky. The news from Missouri is through Northern sources; yet even these seem more favorable than otherwise to the Southern cause. Our armies in Virginia remain in very much the same situation as at last accounts. There has probably been no engagement yet in the West, and it is hoped that reinforcements will reach Gens. Floyd and Wise in time to insure their commands against disaster. The Central train has brought no rumors for two days past, though a few prisoners have arrived to help fill up the places of thes

The Post (independent) also condemns the letter, saying it will have a bad effect in Missouri, and that backward steps now will lead to no good results.

Marshall, when at Lexington a few days since, took possession of a quantity of property belonging with a view of effecting his removal. It is stated that the letters written by Col.

f the most delicate flower, or bruise a blade of grass that decorates our fields; yet, wherever they have gone, though in some instances commanded by soldiers unsurpassed in the best qualities of men, their course is marked by desolation, and lighted by the flames of burning fields and houses. --It might rather be said of them, as of the hosts of Attila, that where they once pass the grass never grows! The President promised peace to our mother, Virginia; he promised peace to our daughter, Missouri; he now sings in our ears the delusive sound. It is the peace which reigns in his water-girt Bastiles; it is the peace which is found in the graves of his victims. Freemen of Kentucky, we have been slow to oppose the usurpations of Abraham Lincoln. We have heard his promises that he would observe the neutrality of Kentucky, and we have heard the echoed re-assurances of his chosen instruments. We have seen the lawless military organizations which for months he has been engaged in int

A Yankee soldier on Saturday last swam the Potomac at Courad's Ferry and crossed over to this side, where he was arrested by our pickets and brought to headquarters.--What disposition was made of the case, we have not learned. The Washington Star has just got the item of "a Union man in Missouri being hung with a grape vine by five Secessionists," Like the Journal, and kindred prints, the Star forgot to add that said Union man told the news of his own hanging. We learn from the Augusta Constitutionalist that the Granitevile Factory has commenced the manufacture of cotton yarn for making socks and stockings the machinery for the purpose having been recently imported from England.

for their tribe. We should have prevented the abduction and incarceration of our friends, who have been abducted and incarcerated only because they were our friends. We should have captured the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, and by throwing a strong body of troops upon the rear of the Yankee marauders in Western Virginia, have rendered their capture and destruction inevitable. We should have protected North Carolina from invasion. We should have arrested the progress of the Yankee arms in Missouri, and placed that gallant State in her true position. We should have enabled Kentucky to purge off the vile locusts that infest her. We should have entered the Yankee territory, and made them tremble for their own capital. We should have taken Philadelphia, and held it as a pledge for the withdrawal of Lincoln's scoundrels from Fortress Monroe, and of his fleet from the blockade of our ports. In a word, we should have gone into the midst of the Yankees, broken up their military organizati

m a private in one of the camps near this city. It is urged that a special effort should be made to promote religious influences in camp. Certainly a vast amount of good might be done by clergymen and other pious men in the army, by judicious efforts to exert a proper moral and religious feeling among the soldiery. No better time than the present — no more suitable occasion--"the field is white to the harvest," the laborers are few.

Your readers have doubtless ere this heard of the great battle of Wilson Creek, Mo., fought August 10th, between the Federal forces upon the one side, under Gen. Lyon, and the Missourians and Confederates, under Gen. Ben. McCulloch.
