victory in Kentucky.complete rout of the Yankee army.over ten thousand men captured. From the Knoxville Register, of Thursday last, we extract the following intelligence relative to the great victory achieved over the Yankee forces, near Richmond, Ky., on Saturday last. It will be seen that our victory was complete in every particular, the entire army being captured, numbering over ten thousand men. The following is a dispatch from Gen. Smith announcing the victory: We had three fighuding General Manson and staff, captured, together with all their artillery and small arms, wagons, &c. Our loss small. Immediately after the battle the following congratulatory order was issued by Gen. Smith: Hdq'rs army of Kentucky,Richmond, Ky.,Aug. 30 The Major General commanding returns his heart-felt thanks to the troops of this command, officers and men, for their exceeding gallantry in the several actions of this day, their patient, unmurmuring endurance of fatigue during t
Bride, threatened that place, and that 1,400 troops are there to meet them. All of the available force of the rebels is at that point, and hourly make offensive demonstrations. An attack was soon expected. Governor Robinson, of Kentucky, has issued a proclamation in which he states that the State has been invaded by an insolent foe, and calls on every loyal citizen of Kentucky to rally to the defence of the State.

To this signal success accorded to our arms in the East, has been graciously added another equally brilliant in the West. On the very day on which our forces were led to victory on the plains of Manassas in Virginia, the same Almighty arm assisted us to overcome our enemies at Richmond, in Kentucky. Thus, at one and the same time, have the two great hostile armies been stricken down, and the wicked designs of our enemies set at naught. In such circumstances, it is meet and right that, as a people, we should bow down in adoring thankfulness to that gracious God who has been our bulwark and defence, and to offer unto Him the tribute of thanksgiving and praise. In His hand are the issues of all events, and to Him should we, in an especial manner, ascribe the honor of this g
