Coz. n. skiMBAL1.--As many Of our read-
ers may desire to know something of the
antecedents of Col. Kir1baH, who has just
been placed at the head of the 14th regi-
ment-of which the Crescent City Guards
is the color company-we copy the follow
ing furnished by correspondent of the
Putnam Banner:
Col. KimbalI was a student of old Ashury.
Was captain in a company in the I'd Indiana
Regiment, at the battle of Buena Vista,
where he did valiant service, proving
himself true in the hour of trial. In the re-
treat, he brought off all his men IN company
form rallying, he fought all day with bis
whole company. He made himself the
nucleus for his command.
After the decision of the Court of Inquiry,
upon the conduct of their Colonel, the Col
onel came out on dress-parade of the regi-
ment but Captain Kimball refused TO be
inspected by him, marching his men off the
parade ground, for which he was court
martialed. His sword was afterwards Civ
en- back to him. Such is Captain N. KIM
ball, now Colonel of the 14th Regiment, in
the service of the State. This is wise
selection, comforting honor on whom honor
is due.

The Tennesseans are becoming so bell
gerent that they cannot wait for a slow
COACH like uncle Sam, to attack them, but
commence fighting among themselves.
The Louisville Journal mentions the fol-
lowing, among others which may always
be found in its columns:
An ARRAY occurred at the depot in Co
lumbia, Tenn, on Saturday, between Mr..
W. r. Porter, formerly deputy sheriff of
Maury county, and Mr. W. c. Reynolds
(both sons-in-law of Maj Thomas Leftwich,
of the vicinity of CoIumbia), in which Mr..
Porter was fatally and Mr.. Reynolds seri-
ously wounded by pistol shots. A shot
fred by one of the parties struck a volun-
teer from Pulaski named Burgess, who was
standing on the platform, the ball passing
through his body and killing him almost
instantly. Another ball passed through
the hand of Mrs. Reynolds.

Bg5HThe wife of the editor of Religious
paper, in Indianapolis, has recently writ
ten note to one of the clergymen in this
city, from which we are permitted to make
the following extract:
Permit me to ask you to interest yourself
in the soldiers encamped near your city.
The good friends in Evansville can do much
for their comfort in the way of friendly
cheer, sending them little comforts, looking
after the sick, &c.
Many of them are the husbands and
cherished sons of homes of comfort. Won't
you go and see them-ask the good ladies,
of your church to give " aid and comfort y
to these soldiers. If not their sons they are
somebody's sons. Let Us remember the
words of the Great Teacher. "Inasmuch as
ye did it unto one of these my brethren ye
have done it unto me-" A bottle of milk
for their coffee, q pie, . loaf of cake and,
above all, words of sympathy and cheer,
will be very grateful to those who have
left homes of comfort for the short allow
ance and privation of camp life. We are
glad to learn that our citizens are mani
Testing an interest in these brave and hardy
men who have come to defend US in this
hour of our country's peril.
While they attending to their physi-
cal wants, let them not forget the higher
wants of the soldier. Tracts and newspa-
pers, will no doubt be gratefully received,
and will cause their leisure hours to pass
prohtably and pleasantly away.

Camp Corresponiienes.

CAMP WALLACE, May 2lst.
There has been a desire expressed by
many that some order of the exercises at
the camp should be published, so that the
citizens could take advantage of it in visit
ing the camp, and not be subjected to the
journey without seeing the prominent
drills and parades of the day. In accord
ance with this request, will give the gen
eral orders:
Reveille, 5 o'clock A. NJ; roll call, imme-
diately after; breakfast call, $50 A. NJ; sur
geon's call, $50 A. NJ; fatigue call, GAO A.
NJ; reports and issues, 7:I0 A. NJ; officers
drill, 7:40 A. NJ; company drill, 9 o'clock A.
M; dinner call, 1890 A. NJ; battalion drill,
2:30 P. NJ; dress parade, P. M; guard
mounting, Immediately after supper CALL
$50 P. NJ; retreat, sunset tattoo, 8 o'clock
P. M; taps, 10 o'clock P. NJ.
This regular order will not be changed,
excepting under extraordinary circumstan-
ces. Visitors who have come in the after
noon and witnessed the battalion drill and
dress parade, have expressed much surprise
at not seeing their ideas of Zouave drill car
ried out; expecting to see some rolling,
tumbling, and a general somersault of the
regiment. For the benefit of the uninitia-
ted, would say that that part of the pro-
gramme takes place at 8 o'clock in the
morning, under the order of company drill,
which is the regular Zouave drill.
The cannon which has been in camp for
the past week has been stationed upon the
bank of the river. An artillery squad has
been organized from the different compa-
MES to man it. 1t has been fully tested.
With such batteries as the one at the city
situated at Fort Washington, and the one
at the camp, we have no fears that boats
will run away from US.
The soldiers are generally in good spirits,
excepting that they want skirmish once in
a while, just for a variety to change the
monotony of camp life.
There has been some dissatisfaction
among the soldiers at the bread which has
heeu brought into camp by the bakers
Three companies refuse to eat the stuff,
and draw their rations in flour and bake
their own bread.
If any more such miserable, sour, mpsty
bread is brought into camp by the bakers
they will lose the whole regiment as custo
merS. *.

SESsIsLE--The Richmond Ky, Messen-
ger c7uuseIs the Legislature not to furnish
Gov Magoffin with any eIms.
The n sssenger is right. If it Is the in
teuGan Of kentucky to remain neutral she
sill need no arms beyond what are already
ia her possession. She is in no danger Of
invasion by the Government which, in ad-
ditioD, is amply able to protect her in case
JEFF. Davis sees proper to march an armed
force within her borders. All the arms
F.ae der the control of Magoffiu will &c
into the hands of rabid secessionists, WHO,
in turn, will use them to precipitate official
ties between the State and General Govern
mlnt
All the talk about armed neutrality" is
mere fudge. Every body with a thimble
iaN of brains knows that if IL was the desire
or iu.ention-or they thought there was a
necessity on the part of the Administra-
zion 90 nvade the State with armed bodies
q. men, the threats of that State would not
cause il to hesitate a moment. The men
OF kealucky are brave, high spirited and
wa arc LOAAO TIC lbs Willie "
graEt that they possess these qualities be-
cause they are not slow to claim them. But
Eal.-ekians are mortal and the
vs.- of them must smile in their
sleeves while they are gravely announc-
ing -aat Kentucky viii permit no armed
troops 10 cross her boundary lines. The
eoucet may be a pleasant one, and we
Trust taay will be permitted to indulge it.
They cam do SO, however,-so long as the
Government has no intention of spelling
it-u as well without arms as with them.
Indeed, WHY it not, in after times, enhance
their glory to have it to say that the. United
States II the one side, and the Confederate
States ON the other, were both held at bay by
tue Commonwealth of Kentucky, though at
she time she was without arms and NUM-
uons of war. That would be a feather in
her cap worth talking about.
Ba. 10 make all things safe, and prevent

ability of Kentucky tc prevent an invasion

g~ !. II. Brown, late editor of the
1r :. Citizen, writes to the Cincinnati
Comt cial that in addition to the other
foyces encamped at Cairo "the Eleventh
Regiment, Col. Wallace, nearly 1000
strong, IS encamped in admirable quarters,
within half mile of his house, twelve
miles from Cairo, on the I. c. R. r.
We were not aware that Illinois had an
Eleventh regiment under the command of
COL Wallace. We thought Indiana was
alone entitled to the regiment so styled.
Hasn Mr. Brown been slightly confused,
and got the names of the various bodies of
Western troops considerably mixed If
there are two 18th regiments under the
command of officers of the same name,
we will have to adopt some plan of distin-
gushing them to keep one from gaining
the glory properly belonging to the other.

KENTUCKY STATE GUARD.-All the arms
BELONGING % the State of Kentucky are be-
ing dramatically and carefully placed in
She hands Of the secessionists of that State.
The Estate Guard" an organization that
Gov 4ag0fin has, in an especial manner,
constituted his pet, has very few Unionists
wI-hiH IDS ranks. The law under which the
STATE =ua1 is organized, expressly provides
tla. man, to be admitted, shall be sworn
10 support the Constitution of the United
States but, Notwithstanding this, the men
recently enrolled in that organization have
not been taus sworn. Thus, in order to ac-
eompush his ends, and dragon the State
ont of 81 Union, the Governor-the Exc
cuaFa col Kentucky, does not hesitate to
permit one Of the painest provisions of the
military iaw of the State to be openly vio-
lated and rampled under {oot And to an
organization formed under such auspices,
are the State arms being committed, in
prefer nee to entrusting them to good Union
men who are willing to take the required
oath.
Gov. Aagofin is evidently bent on trea-
500 Of the most damnable kind, and the
Union men ofhis State are aware of it
why do they not arrest him, and make an
example Of him that would be a terror to
all plotters of treason for ages to come p
How can they expect the loyal States to
have fu!l confidence in their patriotism, so
i-l- ey tamely submit to TIE usurpa-
tons OF traitorous Executive, who they
know is forging the chains that are to bind
them hand AMI foot? The Governor should
be impsached. Kentucky owes it TO herself
and % .la country II purge herself Of the
tricky rtitor.
