Hearing, on the night of the 7th, that the force in front of Smith had rapidly retreated, I moved early next morning, to be present at the operations of Polk's fSmith had rapidly retreated, I moved early next morning, to be present at the operations of Polk's forces. The two armies were formed confronting each other, on opposite sides of the town of Perryville. After consulting the General, and reconnoitering the ground and examining his dispositions, I declined to assume the command, but suggested some changes and modifications of his arrangements, which he promptly adopted. The Ascertaining that the enemy was heavily reinforced during the night I withdrew my force early the next morning to Harrodsburg, and thence to this point. Major General Smith arrived at Harrodsburg with most of his forces and Withers's division the next day, 10th, and yesterday I withdrew the whole to this point — the enemy follo

therefore, must be thought of the judgment, the prudence, or the patriotism of the doctrinaire who proclaim to all the world, in advance, that Philadelphia contains thirty thousand to forty thousand Secessionists, or, in other words, that half her voting population "desire the success of the rebellion?"

many privations have had a deleterious effect upon their naturally vigorous constitutions. There were never, I am informed, over twelve thousand troops at one time in Frankfort, though core Southern officers said they had thirty or forty thousand; while in Kentucky they declared they had seventy or eighty thousand. Humphrey Marshall, however, told persons here that the Confederate force in the State would not amount to over forty thousand; and I learn from residents of Lexington that Kirby Smith never had more than five or six thousand men there. As I have said before, there is but very little question their force in Kentucky has been over stated, and that we outnumber them three to one. A very large proportion of their men are mounted, every fellow who can stealing a horse and enlisting in the "cavalry." On this account this section of country is nearly barren of horses, hundreds upon hundreds having been stolen during the last two weeks. A Prospect for the defeat of
