The excitement among the people

who are most intimately connected
with US by social and business ties, at
the news that this city was menaced
by the enemy, has far surpassed any
thing that we have witnessed here.
The most extravagant reports lave
been circulated and widely credited.
1t has been believed in some quar-
tiers that the rebels have crossed the
Ohio at various points in great force.
The church bells have rung alarms.
Companies without number have or
ganized. Rifles have been collected
and ammunition prepared. The far
mers have mounted their horses and
turned out with their wagons, taking
with them provisions, blankets and
horse-feed, and started for the city III
immense professions.
The railroads have been asked to
bring in the companies thronging all
the stations. The idea Of danger OF
invasion has electrified the whole com
munity. The clangor of angry par
tisan disputation has been silenced.
Those who have been reproaching
each other as abolitionists aud seces-
sion sympathizers, have forgotten
their controversy and have taken
down their rifles.
AS to the extent of the danger the
9lamation OF which has jailed par
tisans, merchants and farmers, from
town and country, to present them
selves here in arms, there is unques
tionahly real danger. The force OF
the enemy that has invaded kentuc-
ky is formidable. I: consists C,
pretty well disciplined and very we'll
armed troops. They have efficient
cavalry and artillery They are ami
mated by success and thirsting in
tensely to carry the war into the
North. They are ably led. and are
recruiting rapidly in Kentucky,
They announce the purpose OF re-
manning in Kentucky at all hazards.
and their great ambition is to take
and destroy Cincinnati.
The alarm which has perva4ed the
country is not false, it is true and sig
niticant. Movements of the enemy
are definitely ascertained to be IN this
direction it would seem rash enter
prise in them TO attack Cincinnati.
but they are enterprising to audacity

ing river. and is the county seat Of
Pendleton county, which borders on
Kentou aud Campbell counties-
