miles above Columbus.
Both parties are establishing pickets be-

occurrence. Our information is that our
troops are anxiously seeking every opportu-

Kentucky Legislature.

The following resolutions have been adopt
ed by large majorities in both Branches OF
the Kentucky Legislature
The committee to whom was referred the
communications of the Governor of this
Commonwealth, together with the commune
cations of Polk and Zollicoffer, informing
the Governor that they had seized and were
occupying, with large military forces, por-
tions of the soil of Kentucky, have had the
same under consideration, and ask leave TO
make the following report
WHEREAS, Kentucky has been invaded by
the forces of the so-called Confederate Stat es
and the commanders of the forces so invad-
ing the State have insolently prescribed the
conditions upon which they will withdraw,
thus Insulting the dignity of the State by
demanding terms to which Kentucky cannot
listen without dishOnor, therefore
Resolred, That the invaders must be ex-
PEELED.
Inasmueh as there are now in Kentucky,
Federal troops assembled for the purpose of
preserving the tranquility of the State and of
defending and protecting the people of Ken
lucky in the peaceful enjoyment of their
lives and property it is .
Resolved, That Gen. Robert Anderson, a
native kentuckian, who has been appointed
to the command of the Department of Cum
berland, be requested to take instant COM
mand, with authority and power from this
Commonwealth to call out volunteer force
in Kentucky for the purpose of repelling the
invaders from our soil.
ResolU,d That in using the means which
duty and honor require shall be used to ex-
pei the invaders from the soil of Kentucky,
no citizen shall be molested on account of
his political opinions-that no citizens pro-
perty shall be taken or confscated because
of such opinions, nor shall any slave be set
free by any military commander; and that
all peaceable citizens who remain at home
and attend to their own private business,
until legally called into the public service,
as well as their families, are entitled to, and
shall receive. the fullest protection of the
Government in the enjoyment of their lives,
their liberties, and their property.
ResOiUed, That his Excellency, the Govern
or OF the Commonwealth of Kentucky, be
requested to give all the aid in his power to
accomplish the end desired by these resolu-
tons, and that he issue bis proclamation
calling out the militia of the State, and that
be place the same under the command of
Gen. Thomas l.. Critte0den.
Resolued. That the patriotism of every Ken
tuckian is invoked aud confidently relied up
on to give active aid in the defence of the
Commonwealth.

The Protection of Washington-Bru-
tai Espionage

The Richmond correspondent of the Mem
phis Appeal, in letter dated the 18th ult.,
says
There can he no doubt that the most ire
meBdous preparations have been made for the
protection of Washington. An intelligent
lady, who left there only week ago and has
Just reached Richmond, gives some valuable
information of what has been done in and
around the city for the destruction of the
southern army, should it attempt to carry
the place by assault. The Long Bridge aad
the Chain Bridge, she tells US, have both been
mined, and can be blown up at moments
warning, should Beauregard's victorious
troops try to cross either one of them. En-
circling Arlington Heighi- Yankees have
dug wide and deep pits, over which thin
covering of earth and tH!gs has been care
fully thrown TO conceal the danger, and into
these abys>es of destruction they expect to
welcome the brave fellows, who, unappalled
by the murderous fire of the batteries, should
rush to gain the summit and drive in the
gunners With the bayonet. Their trouble in
the contrivance of these Chinese pieces of
dia6lerie will prove to be cloves labor lost, ;"
for Washing on will most probably be ours,
II at all as matter OF military necessity,
and 1t is not proposed to go north by way of
the treacherous pitfalls of Arlington, nor will
Tue Southern army cross either the Chain
bridge or the Long Bridge. We shall not
walk into the spiders parlor at any price.
The experience of the lady, TO whom have
referred, in making her escape from Wash
lngtoD shows to what refinements of despot-
ism, or rather should ray 10 what brutsli-
ties of espionage, the .'freest government uy-
on EARTH has been brought by the war With
passport countersigned by General Scott.
III her pocket, she ordered carriage, upon
arriving at the Camden station in Baltimore.
to go to the house of her friend in that city.
As the driver mounted the box, a rough fell
low in undreSs uniform took the seat by his
side, aud to her CONSERVATION she discovered
that the horses We're rapidly driven in di-
recIion quite contrary to the part of the town
10 which her Fl lend resided. Very soon they
were stopped at the door of strange house
and she was ordered TO alight at the Office OF
the provost marshal! Expostulatious and re-
proaches were alike in vain. With the ut
most rudeness she was forced into the house,
the keys of her trunks taken from her and
she herself hurried up stairs to undergo an
insulting personal examination at the hands
OF two coarse women. very well fitted for
such Infamous service. Alter two hout's de-
tentiOn, the provost marshal, finding nothing
to warrant bis sending her to Fort McHenry,
permitted her to go to her friends house
Aud this with lady who had a passport
from Gen. Scott Comment is superfuOus.

SUDDEN DEATH OF A SOLDIER.-We have
inst received the painful intelligence OF the
sudden dpath of Robert Taylor, member
OF Capt Douglas company, (Hatton's Regi-
ment) now in Western Virginia. Robert
was a son of Benjamin Taylor, of Sumner
county He stood on guard, we are credibly
informed, for seventy hours, when, upon be-
ing relieved. be fell dead, of brain fever.
Robert Taylor was, indeed, noble fellow. a
soldier in the highest sense of the term. We
deeply sympathize with his parents in their
untimely loss of their gallant boy. He was
much beloved by the community from which
he volunteered into the army.-Repubiicdn
Banner.
The natural inquiry, after reading the
above, is, why was young TAYLOR required
to stand on guard for seventy hours? Sup
pose, during these long, weary hours he had
slept on his post, what then? We would not
like to be the officer who kept him on such
duty SO long.
