THE SITUATION.

The Kentucky news is still exciting. The bridge
over the Rolling Fork, near Aluldraugh's Hill, has
been destroyed, and the enemy had, on Thursday
last, broken up the position on the hill which they
had fortified. General B.ckner is reported to be
in command Of tie rebels general excitement
prevailed yesterday, and cannon and other
arms had been received in Louisville. Indiana
troops were expected to help the Uni N troops
already engaged. Telegraph communication South
is entirely stopped therefore nothing is accurately
known of the movements of either side of the
troops. War has been declared ny the Legisla-
ture, the Union Home Guards being placed under
the charge of Brigader General Crittenden and
the troops under General Anderson, who has the
supreme control of the State arms and ammuni.
ton.
From Lexington, via St. Louis the intelligence is
to the effect that Acting General Mullgan still held
the Notifications on Wednesday, and that he had
repulsed several assaults on the works made by
General Prices rebel forces The loss of the rebels
in each case was very severe. Later reports tend
to confirm the above.
Colonel Richardson, with his regiment of Home
Guards, had taken up position at Usage Bridge to
resist the advance of General McCullochs rebels.
said to be 1000 strong and who are reported to
be approaching Jefferson City.
The news from Washington is interesting.
General Mcclellan has ordered that there shall lie
no firing upon the rebel pickets except to repel
their advance, or to return fire commenced bv
them. This moderation does not seem to he an
preciated by the rebels, as they have several
times fired on the Union pickcts since the order
was issued. Our Washington dispatches state
that General Fremont's military action in Missouri
has given cause to the President for dissatisfac.

will unquestionably be called personally to Wash

A skirmish took place on the 14th inst. near
Kansas City, No., resulting in the death of seven

Dorses, &c. The rebel barracks were DESTROYED.

AFTER THE WAR.-At the conclusion of this
dred thousand veteran soldiers; and our navy
will comprise over five hundred ships of war,
and we shall have naval brigade Of about fifty
thousand men. Let European governments be
careful, then, how they treat us during the con-
tinuance Of this war, for when we have settled
our domestic troubles the slightest word of in
suit or provocation may let loose upon Canada
and Cuba this terrible force, and sweep the last
vestige of monarchical rule from this continent.

ABoIrTIoNIsM AT THE NoRrH.-The abolition
lists at tho North could never number more than
FIVE hundred thousand voters out of an aggre-
gate vote of three and half millions. Mea-
sures are now being taken to weed out the abo-
lition element Of all parties from the conserva
tive, and when that result is accomplished let
the abolitionists expect that punishment which
their enormities have long merited.

in a private dwelling in First avenue, near Eleventh

organizing, and has, perhaps, partly despatched
several military and naval expeditions against
the South, employing in the aggregate about
one hundred and fifty thousand men and three
thousand ships of war and transports. With
this large force the Southern cotton crop will
be seized at the different depots, when it is
ready for market, and the government will have
about 2 ,0O0,0U0 bales, by the first of January
next, for export to England and France There
is no necessity, therefore, for European nations
to quarrel with us about the cotton supply.
We shall be ready to let them have all the cot
on they want by the time they require it.

SouIRMING OF Our ABoLITIoNIsTs.-Thep penny
Sun, of New York, now in the hands of an abo-
lition clique, denounces the Presidents disap-
proval of General Fremont's emancipation pro-
clamation as disclosing ':the moral inconsis-
tcncy and weakness Of the President in q
stronger light than has been supposed or re-
presented" This abolition befogged Sun, how
ever. passed its meridian long ago, and from
present appearances, it will soon set under
total eclipse If they feel called upon to de-
nounce Mr.. Lincoln to-day as guilty of ''moral
inconsistency and weakness" and as q "tempo-
rizing President" terrified into an amazing
committal" to the enemies of the Union, it is
possible that tomorrow these abolition disor-
ganizers Of the Sun may boldly take the high
road to Fort Lafayette.

HumbuR Medicine.

If one buys Northern jewelry and gets cheated
getting five ceats worth of gold for So 1t is only
little affair." nobody is hurt, only egregiously ehedt>
ed, but when you are sick, and resort TO the huns
dred and nostrums, lotions, pills and sarsapa-
rias etc, gotten up by Dutch and Yankee specula-
tors in human miseries, you are possibly something
more than cheated--posityely injured. Do you
know those foreigners? Have you any recourse
upon them if injured? If you find their stuff use>
less, and yourself imposed upon, can you expose
them so that they can be made to feel it fyou
see fit to use medicines prepared by others than
your own physicians-why not inquire after South
ern Remedies, prepared by Southern physicians,
and sold by Southern druggists or dealers in your
midst-men whom you can expose, and whose
profits you can check. if they cheat you. We be-
lieve that there are Southern remedies fer every
complaint, from the dreaded ague or incipient fe>
yer to a cholic, cut bruise or burn, for which no
one wants to post for the farsof doctor. Each
family should keep some simple, effective and reli-
able relief on hand ready for a moments use.
We embrace the above sentiments. We believe
that there are better medicines put up in the South
by reliable proprietors that are superior to articles
prepared by Northern or Dutch vendors. The South
ern remedies, advertised in this paper, we hare ne
doubt excel the patent Pain-Killers and Ready Re
liefs, and Ague and Liver Pills, with which North
ern vendors deluge our land. Let them be fairly
tested and if they are found TO be impositons the
columns of this paper are open for them to be ex-
posed, for cheaper terms than the proprletors OBJ
tain them to aid their sale.
We learn that where the Ambrosial Oil is known
and used, no Pain Killer or Railway, etc, can be
sold-the people want nothing else. We can say
that we have found the Oil far more certain and
effective relief of eholic and sore throat than those
and the oil is pleasant to take, while those are
Severe When those Ague and Liver Pills have been
tested no Northern Pills will be sought for in our
opinion. They are purely vegetable-thsy give i'm
mediate relief-they give no pain.-1enn. BdptiSt

tt, that owing to dlsappOintments, he will be un-
able to give his contemplated concerts the city for

course of a week or two. We have received from
Huntsville, Holly Springs and Memphis glowing ae-
counts of the talents and success of this promising
young violnist-accounts we are the more disposed
to cred it after having enjoyed his ntelligentconver
sation.
The ladies of Huntsville were so much charmed
with his music that they manifested their enthus-
Asm in giving him a complimentary concert which
was one of the most brilliant affairs that ever came
off there. By the bye, CARLO is remarkably hand
some little fellow, and were we lady perhaps we
should have done the same thing. All who see him
will recognize him at once as the brother of ADE-
LIMA, whose black eyes did so much damage in
Nashville few months ago If they had been
twins, there could not well have bee more strik-
ing likeness.
