Gen. BUELL..

The appointment Of General Don Carlos
Buell. to the chief command in Kentucky has
naturally induced many inquiries as to his
antecedents:
he entered the academy at West Point in
1896. and graduated in lS4l. Though nomi
nally appointed from Ohio, he was really a
citizen of Lawrenceturg, Ind. a; the time
of his appointment.
The Mexican war t'und him Lieutenant
in the regular army,
At Monterey he was highly distinguished.
and was breyetted a Captain for gallant con
duct in that desperate fight.
Again at Cerro Gordo he was prominent
in the list of those who had distinguished
themselves in the battle.
For gallant and meritorious conduct" at
Contreras and Cherubusco, he was breyetted
a Major La the latter action he was dan
gerously wounded, and in consequence, dis
abled for the balance of the campaign.
In 1851 he was appointed Assistant Adju-
tant General of the army, which important
position he held until the breaking out Of the
Southern rebellion. when he was promoted
20 his present rank.

that Gen. Benham had crossed the Kanawha

arrived at the wharf yesterday. that on Sun

Floyd contemplated retreat, but this may
