in few moments some cayalrymen came
and took charge Of the prisoners. laid
the flag, guns, and some other traps in a
pile, and went ~ catch a horse which
was running about ready bridled and
saddled, and one of the cayalrymen who
was marching Off the prisoners which
the 18th Ohio man and myself had cap

A force was sent out yesterday morn
ing on the Asylum road, 10 reconGoitrC

ported 20 be in force a short distance Off
The expedition returned the same even
ing, after an unsuccessful exploration,
the enemy having changed his locality
Some camp fires were found and a gun
and blanket. The cavalry brought in
some dozen Of prisoners.
We heard that there were probably
six or eight hundred guerrillas at Good
lettsville yesterday morning, which lie
probably ali the rebel force in the vicin-
ity, or likely TO be if a few vigorous ex-
petitions should be sent out to prevent
the formation of marauding bands, and
break up all the camps they may be form
ing within forty or fifty miles of this
city.
It is said by refugees in the city that
there is to be a general gathering of con-
scripts at McNinnyille, on the 10th Of
November. Our authorities have not
been consulted as 20 the meeting, and
may be disposed TO resent this slight
by interfering. We know that The sol
diers are eager for the expedition. They
were a good deal provoked at not finding
some rebel soldiers to fight yesterday, so
much so that several of them laid violent
hands on some geese and sheep for the
purpose of sending them TO camp chase,
or chasing them and sending them to the
camp. The oath has been administered
TO these to1ol and Steepisb creatures before
this. We advise these rebels TO abandon
the silly hope of starving out our soldiers.
The scarcer their supplies get the better
they live. They are determined neither
TO evacuate nor famish. They know that
there is plenty 70 ea in the country,
and as long as the guerrillas cut off their
supplies, they will live off the fat of the
land. The starving out process may as
well be giving up by the rebels. il can
not be done.

Our readers will be both instructes
and smused by the intercepted letters Of
BEAUREoARD which we publish to. day
Il will be seen how terribly disastrous
70 the Federal cause would have been
the evacuation Of Nashville, which was
urged with such obstinacy by General
BUELL. ard resisted with greater obsti-
macy, and fortunately with success by
Governor JOHNSON. Had six weeks been
given 10 the rebels 70 build the contem-
plated distinctions and batteries COM
mandng the navigation of the Cumber-
land aid Tennessee rivers, il would have
cost us thousand Of lives and millions of
dol ars 70 regain control of those streams,
on the return of the rise, in addition to
the disasters consequent on the sur
render Of the Capital of the State. The
nation, as we'll as Tennessee, has good
cause 70 congratulate itself that military
counsels were in this case overruled by
Che civil officer, 10 whose hands the Adj
miDisiration had confded the protection
of the interests of this Commonwealth.
The citizens Of Louisville, and indeed
of the whole Mississippi Valley, will feel
very grateful to Gen. BEAUREGARD for the
contemplated destruction Of the Louis
vile and Portland canal, a work whose
construction cost several millions Of dol
lars, and which ranks among the most
valuable internal Improvements Of the
nation. 1t is plain that the rebel leaders
are ready 10 make desert Of the border
States and Tennessee, 10 protect the slave
holders of South Carolina, Alabama,
Mississippi and Louisiana.

suggested, was unable 10 support him

at the treatment he received from JEFF
DAVIS, in depriving him of his command.
He says Of those infamous plunderers,

The grave proposition TO call the

Retribution.

A correspondent writing from Perry

She retribution which has come upon that
rebel sink hole;
It is said by Union men here that Per-
ryville seeded before South Carolina
did, and that there was not a loyal fam
lily there six months ago, even before the
rebels had invaded Kentucky The ac-
ton Of the Confederate army, during lis
brief stay amongst them, may change the
political tone of ths citizens somewhat
Every house was pillaged, every room
ransacked, and every article Of value
carried off, Bed-clOthing, quilts, and
blankets, aud all manner Of wearing ap-
parel was especially sought after, moth
ing was left behind by the retreating
army that could in any way be used by
the soldiers. The people have certainly
10 right TO complain. The frogs in the
fable became tired of democratic form
Of government, and supplicated Jupiter
till he sent them a King that deyoured
them all. Perryville repudiatcd Mr..
Lincoln and the devil sent jeff. Davis

the Confederate army. So mote it be.
