r quarter; and this advantage, united with that of enlisting Kentuckians under their banners, has made Kentucky the most attractive and popular theatre of the war in the eyes of the North They know very well, too, that the regiments which they recruit in the Northwest are vastly superior in prowess and courage to those raised in the Eastern and Middle States; and it is much more politic to precipitate those Northwestern regiments in vast bodies upon Kentucky, than to send them far West into Missouri or Kansas, or as far East as Washington and the Potomac. The Southern cause, on the other hand, is embarrassed in Kentucky by the political position of that State. Gen. Johnston, as we see by his recent proclamation to the Kentucky people, holds a defensive attitude, and does not feel at liberty to take such decided and aggressive steps to confront and resist the enemy as he would do if Kentucky were a member of the Southern Confederacy. Of all the States, Kentucky is the one in whic

No more striking instance of the intrepid fearlessness and determination which characterizes woman, whenever she undertakes the prosecution of an enterprise attendant with danger, has ever come under our observation than the following, which we find in a letter from Fairfax, published in one of our exchanges: Speaking of Alexandria ladies, the story is current here that one of

nics are out of employment, the poor are clamoring for bread, and bankers are restive and uneasy. The whole country groans and staggers under the mighty load which now presses upon its bended back. Meanwhile our march is onward in Kentucky and Missouri. The same correspondent says that McClellan has conducted matters since his advent into Washington with considerable tact. He has messaged to set rumors afloat in Richmond and the Army of the Potomac that he had an army of 160,000 men; thatack us with a force of 100,000 troops, and that large fleets were about to sell from Northern ports to ravish our coast and burn our cities. The object of all this bluster was to distract our counsels, to divert from the Potomac, Kentucky, and Missouri, the reinforcements intended for those points, and to alarm the people, along the whole Southern coast. The affair at Hatteras was admirably planned to effect his purpose. That naval expeditions will be sent Southward, there need be no doubt;

St. Louis Lies --Reported Death of Ben. McCulloch, &c.-- A letter written by a Lincoln correspondent from Missouri, says: A well informed gentleman at Rolla, states there is reliable news there that Gen. Ben. McCulloch did die at Fayetteville of the wound he received at the battle of Springfield. He neglected proper medical treatment, saying no Dutchman could kill him.-- This news come from several sources in the Southwest, and is also brought by men who have just arrived from Arkaceola and its burning by Col. Montgomery, were in great fright, and loaded their wagons for flight, as it was there reported that Montgomery was on his march from Osceola to attack Springfield. But few if any troops from Arkansas are now in Missouri. They were generally received for three months, and when their term of service expired, they returned to their homes. Col. Churchill, of that State, with his regiment and other troops, were recently at Camp Walker, near Maysville, Arkansas

Plan of our campaign in Missouri. --The Rolla correspondent of the St. Louis Republican writes, under date of the 9th inst., as follows. We trust that he may be right in his conjecture: The plans of the Confederates, as reported here, (and of course the reports are founded on nothing official,) are about as follows: Price is to fight and conquer Fremont, driving him back to Jefferson City, and thence to St. Louis; McCulloch's forces are to march upon Rella; while Hardee or Pil conquer Fremont, driving him back to Jefferson City, and thence to St. Louis; McCulloch's forces are to march upon Rella; while Hardee or Pillow approach from Southeast Missouri. Having possession of the termini of the three railroads — the Pacific, Southwest Branch and Iron Mountain — the three armies are to proceed simultaneously to St. Louis, and take possession of that city. This plan is quite extensively laid, and looks quite plausible, if they had the power to carry it into effect.

ery and duplicity practiced upon the people of the State through the medium of a Legislature which does not reflect their sentiments, and declared his belief that the time would come when despotism would be crushed and its instruments driven out at the cannon's mouth, and at the point of the bayonet. He stated that there were now 8,500 Kentuckians in the Southern army, and thousands more waiting a favorable opportunity to strike a blow for constitutional freedom.--Mr. Marshall was followed by Colonel Wm. Christy, a veteran of the war of 1812, who made a thrilling speech. Col. Thomas L. of Gen. Sterling Price's staff, also made a new remarks, giving a cheering view of the progress of events in Missouri, and Col. Wm. F. Sims, of Kentucky, the competitor of John J. Crittenden, briefly addressed the throng. It was announced that Mr. Breckinridge was not present, and though this caused a general expression of disappointment, the enthusiasm of the people was not perceptibly diminished.
