| brigade to Louisville to cooperate with
the Union men of Louisville and the
State ut large, in resisting the invasion
of Tcnnesseans but it appears that q
very strong prejudice exists in Ken
lucky against the brigade. A large
number Of it's members hail from Ohio,
and the so-called Kentuckians are most
~ from the border towns aud counties,
only small portion of them being ma
tives of the State. The scccssionists
have been in the habit Of representing
the whole brigade as consisting Of bo-
gus Kentuckians. This is unjust, but
there there is truth enough in it to give
coloring to a great deal of scandal and
apprehension. Other Federal troops,
indeed, would be more acceptable than
tits brigade to the Union men of Ken
lucky. This being understood ut the
War Department, the Kentucky brig
age will be ordered here, and Home
Guard like that at st. Louis will be Or
ganizcd and armed at Louisville. This
wise determination will remove much
difficulty and apprehension.
