Important from Southern Vir-

Regiment at GuyamdOtte.
From the Cincinnati Gazette, 18th.

NdZctte, Ioln.1
On Tuesday last the First and Secoud Ken
lucky Regiments left this city for Virginia
by river, with orders TO halt at Guyandotte,
to rout the secessioniSts who have infested
that neighborhood. Upon nearing the point
Of destination. Col Woodruff, of the Second
Regiment, ordered his men to prepare to
march.
The whole Regiment was under arms in
five minutes Five miles below the town
the regiment was landed 1t was ascertain
ed that jenkins, with his cavalry, was in the
town.
To prevent bis retreat, Capt. Brown, with
three companies, was dispatched TO take pos
session Of the bridge leading into the coun-
try, while Col Woodruff, with seven compa-
MES, took the direct road, marching at dou-
bic quick time. jenkins, however, had ia.
ken the alarm and fled with his cavalry be-
fore Capt. Brown reached the bridge. He
made good time, proving by what he accom-
plished in this respect, that he is one of the
F.F.V.'s
Some forty notorious sccessionists were
taken prisoners and number of rifles were
seized An open bridge leading out of the
town, which spans small river, was turned
into guard house. The prisoners were
driven into this, a company of our men being
placed at each entrance Col Woodruff be-
ing asked how he proposed to prevent them
from escaping over the bridge, he remarked
that if they wanted to jump off they could
go down seventy feet without hurting his
feelings.
The officers were ordered to quarter them
selves in the ladies' parlor of the hotel. The
proprietor Of the latter was glad to be per-
mitted to take the oath.

About the Soldiers.

Soldiers while passing through peaceable
sections of the country, cannot be too care
full to respect the rights Of persons and prop
erty, and even in hostile regions they should
abstain with religious forbearance from all
interference with peaceab'e and orderly citi-
zens. Our armies 60 forth to protect the
rights of loyal citizens in every part of the
country, and one of the most gratifying fea-
lures Of this contest is the forbearance exer-
cised by these thousands of men so sudden
ly called from civil pursuits, and placed
without military experience, under circum-
stances of great provocation. The world
never saw anything like it. The object of
this war is to re-establish law and order.
