The Green river blunder — reported movement of Rosencranz into Kentucky--a Louisville Canard. Nashville, Oct. 15. --The Louisville Courier, of to day, confirms the destruction of two spans of the railroad bridge over Green river, by a misapprehension of the orders to the officer in charge.

Lincoln forces are at Smithland, and the report is that four hundred Lincolnites have destroyed water-craft of every kind on the Cumberland river, as far up as Ross' Ferry, a distance of 27 miles. Returned parties from Western Virginia, and who came direct, report that Rosencranz has gone to Kentucky. The Louisville Journal, of the 9th instant, reports the capture of New Orleans, without firing a gun!

They are anxious to keep it in our State, or else to push it through our State into Illinois, Indiana, Ohio and Western Virginia. For the accomplishment of this work, necessary, in their opinion, to their very existence, they are resolved on sending their whole strength immediately forward to the dark and bloody ground, to render it darker and bloodier. But the true policy of Kentucky, Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois must necessarily be to counteract and defeat this policy of the States on our Southern border. And Kentucky herself knows that, unless the tide now surging over her from the South shall be rolled back
