A REINFORCEMENT OF TWENTY THOUSAND Men,
We learn through gentleman just arrived from
Kentucky, that Gen. s. B. Buckner, the Chief of
the Knishs of the Golden Circle in that State, was
on his way to Join General Johnston with twenty
thousand men, and had already reached Bowling
Green. This is entirely reliable, and will put diff
ferent face upon matters in that State.

and other Southern camps the Kentuckians are

The Federas have got firm foothold in Louis
Vile however. The suppression of the Courier
and the arrest and Imprisonment of Gov. Morehead
are acts but to inaugurate another reign OF terror
such as was witnessed in St. Louis. We have

St. Louis, Aug. 6. On Thursday news
reached here that the enemy were advancing on
Us in three columns, with force of 900
men. Gen. Lyon Immediately set out to meet

Gen. Lyon encamped that evening Oh Tyrel

Girding on the Armor,

Each day as it passes gives proof OF the dill
gence and energy with which the Government
is getting ready to deal fatal blow at the
wicked rebellion that is striving to divide and
conquer the Federal Republic. The under
standing between the newspapers and Gen. Nc
Clelan that detailed accounts of the position,
strength, and movements of our troops should
not be made public, keeps back much news that
few weeks ago daily came forward from WASH
ington, but the Country still knows and feels
that giant preparations although noiselessly
are none the less surely progressing. From ev-
cry loyal State Regiment after Regiment is
moving forward to the Seat of War, either to
Cairo and the vicinity of Missouri, or toward
Virginia. rigid discipline that tells of the
presence of an ever vigilant eye is bringing or
der and strength out of the decentralization and
weakness that pervaded our army on the Poto-
mac after the disaster at Bull run. Efficient
men are taking the places of the incapable,
tmd, and inefficient. The cv practices and
evil examples that are so common in every
Camp, and are SO fatal to the IN oral strength
Of an army are yielding and appearing under
the pressure of law, order and method.
The late reverse has shown Just where our
weakness is and that it is no, in the courage,
hardihood, or dash of our troops, but only in
the extent and detail Of our arrangements for
the war. 1t has shown us how desperate is the
treason that is in arms against US, and with
what care and gigantic preparation we must go
forth to meet it. And while we see what i'm
mensc additions of men and material of war
join our army every day. and feel The pulsatons
of the great heart of Freedom hrobbing with
its giant life, and with the unfinching deter
minaticn that treason and traitors shall not sub
vert our benefcent, free Government, the future
has nothing to our sight but the rainbow colors of
promise. The giant is aroused. The North is now
