The extension of the Lebanon branch of the Louisville Road to Danville will be a heavier undertaking, but the topography is more favorable than on the other line, and the roadbed, with the force called out, will be speedily prepared. The project for a military highway through Kentucky to East Tennessee is substantially the same as that entertained by President Lincoln at the beginning of the war, and warmly recommended by him — along with the extension of the Southwest Railroad of Missouri to Springfield, in that State--in a message to Congress." Thus far, the projects of Mr. Lincoln toward the occupation of Southern territory has been carried out, in the opening up of the Mississippi river, the possession of New Orleans, and a great portion of Mississippi, and the entire States of Kentucky and Tennessee.

This was done for the purpose of protecting immense wagon trains, which of the engagement that Col. Scott's cavalry brigade had with the same force on the Ringgold and Dalton road. On the morning of the 10th Gen. Forrest, with Col. S.'s brigade, went to Ringgold.--Os were forced in on all the roads north of Ringgold. The artillery was soon hurried back on the Dalton road with portions of the cavalry. In a few minutes the enemy began to shell the town. In the meantime their sharpshooters had cut off any further retreat on the Dalton road. 140 men, under Lt. Col. Montgomery, of the 5th Tennessee, were thus cut off, and were forced to climb the mountain south of Ringgold. The enemy followed with much spirit two miles on the Dalton road, where our artillery being put in position, opened on them. After an hour's duelling the enemy began to turn our flan

He also stated that the Federals were pressing large numbers of negroes in the counties of Montgomery, Robertson, and the northern part of Davidson and Sumner, in Tennessee, and in the counties of Logan and Simpson, in Kentucky, ostensibly to work upon the fortifications at Gallatin, at which place they were digging a good deal of dirt. They had erected seven strong stockades in the public square, and felled all the timber on the southeast side of the town, and constructed out of it a regular abatis.

Already, as we are told by the New York Times, Gen. Burnside has ordered the impressment of six thousand laborers from the negro population of Kentucky, to be employed in the construction of military roads in that State. It is intimated that the Central railroad, which extends from Covington (opposite Cincinnati) to a point fourteen miles south of Lexington, is to be continued across the Kentucky river, and that the Lebanon branch of the Louisville and Nashville railroad is to be continued southwardly, in the general direction of Knoxville, which place it is intended to reach, no doubt, by the proposed military highway.

First, by the main strength of Bragg's army hurled against the Federal armed force on our border, and the rout of that army in irretrievable disintegration and irremediable disaster. The second certain plan for the accomplishment of the same and will be the sending of a heavy column of cavalry to Stevenson, Ala., and from that point to penetrate the heart of Middle Tennessee, in the rear of the Federal army, destroying the Nashville and Chattanooga railroad as they advance, and cutting the Federal commander off from his supplies. Then a simultaneous movement of our strongly reinforced army across the Cumberland Mountain from London, and we venture the prediction the Yankees will "change front" faster than they ever came into this country.
