Kentucky, at the head of force, the ad.
vance Of which is composed entirely of
Keutuckians We do not come to modest
any person, whatever may be his opinions,
unlike the agents of the Northern desp.ot-
ism who seek TO reduce US to the condition
of vassals, we believe that the recognition
of the civil rights Of citizens is the founda-
tion of constitutional liberty, and that the
claim of the President of the United States
to declare martial law, to suspend the pri-
vileges of the writ of habeas corpus, and to
convert every barracks and every prison in
the land into Bastile, is nothing but the
claim which other tyrants have assumed to
subjugate free people.
The Confederate States occupy Bowling
Green as defensive position. I renew the
pledges the commanders of other columns
of Confederate troops to retire from the ter
ritory of Kentucky on the same condition
which will govern their movements. l fur

ST. LOUIS Sept. 21.--In order 60 correct
confusion and many contradictory state
ments relative to the position of Lexington
and the opposing forces, COLI MGlligan and
Gen. Price, it ia deemed necessary to make
the following explanation. The general di-
rection of the Missouri at Lexington is from
West to East, the city lying on the south
bank. The early settlement, now called
Oldtown, is situated back of the mill, and
has been superseded by New Lexington fur
Their up the river where the steamboat land
ing now is, and which is the main city
Mulligan's Qualifications are on ridge rum
ming at right angles with the river between
the two towns. They surround the Ma
sonic College buildings, standing one guar
ter of mile from the river, which has been
used as quarters for troops, and strength
ened to resist an artillery attack. The line
of fertilization runs down the river bluff,
between which and the waters edge is a
wide shelving beech This is the point
where the conflict took place for the posses
sion of the ferry boats The main body of
Price, army is located at Old Town, but the
Notifications have been assailed from all
sides except the river. On Thursday of last
week an attack was made from Old Town
by a strong party of rebels, who were re-
pulsed with considerable loss, and Old Town
was shelled and burned to prevent its being
used as shelter.
Lexington proper is in possession of
Price, bat it has not been the theatre of
conflict. The achievements which ] left
jefferson City on Wednesday, if they were
not assailed by batteries along the shore,
must heve reached Lexington yesterday
These troops could doubtless have been
landed on the South side Of the river, and
the steamers used to ferry General Sturges,
command across and the combined forces,
| numbering about $4,000, will march on
Lexington, and with the assistance of Null
