Col. Branton Duncan, of Kentucky. This gentleman, who was the first to respond to Lincoln's war proclamation of April, one week thereafter, by equipping and bringing to Virginia 500 troops, has resigned his commission. Participating in the battle of Manassas, acting as one of Gen. Johnston's staff, he escaped uninjured from the deadly storm which overwhelmed so many gallant souls. The very first to come to the rescue of Virginia, Col. Duncan has remained until the insolent invader of our soil has been shamefully driven back to the Potomac, and the independence of the Southern Confederacy virtually achieved. He now returns to the West for purposes, doubtless, looking to the good of our cause. In another location a good account will be heard of him, as we do not think that, after recruiting his health, impaired by constant exposure in the field, the Colonel would either be willing to remain idle, or that he would be allowed to do so. His lot is now cast with us, regardle
