THE WAR I'm KENTUCKY

The Bowling Green correspondent of the Nash
vile Union has arrived at the conclusion that
there will be no fighting in Central Kentucky
very soon. In his letter, dated on the 30th, he
says:
A wager would have been taken ten days ago
that before the close of the holidays a battle
would have been fought and victory won in the
Green river valley. The enemy with a force of
5000, supposed to be the advance of Buelrs
army, had crossed Green river and moved for
ward nineteen miles in the direction of this place.
To-day there is not between Green and Barren
rivers any considerable number of Federals, all
of whom are now north of both streams,
After advancing to Horse Cave, the Dutch
commenced a series OF maneUveTings, and for
the present postponed the to-be decisive winter
campaign by Withdrawing to Munfordsville.
Our forces al the same time commenced falling
back towards Bowling Green, and are now near
Bells Tavern still moving south and destroying
the railroad as they retreat. Last Friday, by
order Of the military authorities, the tunnel near
Cave City was blown up, and the railroad track
for several miles destroyed. The Dutch are at
the same time removing the rails from the track
north of Cave City, and obstructing the different
roads leading to Munfordsville with trees, etc.
Both armies are retiring, one from the other,
and an early engagement is no more probable to-
day than twas three months ago. The intensity
to which the public mind has been worked will
be relieved when it is known that any contem-
plated speedy attack which was TO have been
made upon this place has been indefinitely post
pOned.
Crittenden and Jackson, who four days since
had evacuated their Notifications at RUmsey and
Calhoun, and were moving on Hopkinsville,
have again returned and are evidently preparing
to 60 into winter quarters, certainly not into
HOpkinsviile. Whatever coming signs may
portend, your readers will be spared the infic-
ton of any speculations as to the ceTtsinties or
uncertainties Of an early engagement being i'm
minent through the channel Of his correspond
enca.

The same paper thinks this will be the time
for the hunting rifles and shot guns to appear IN
the hands of their owners, and adds:
There is not a planter in he country who has
not nom one 20 five guns. No Overseer is with
out one, and scarcely a man or a boy. Three
gentlemen casually met in our streets the other
day, and conversation turned upon the subject.
On comparing notes the three found that
they had sixteen serYiceable weapons between
them. If Picayune Butler, with his ugly phiz,
is in earnest, our rife and shotgun citizens may
soon find use for their weapons. We advise
them to be brushing them up and laying in a
stock OF powder and lead. If they would be
ready to use them with effect, it would be wise
to organize themselves into bodies. Butler must

A correspondent of the New York Herald,
writing from Montpelier, Vermont, under date
Of the 23d ult, furnishes that paper with the
following:
For some time past officers have been on the
alert, tracking the movements of a lady whose
frequent and mysterious visits TO Canads and
back excited their attention One detective had
been engaged nearly a month in following her.
She was known to have visited certain secession
parties in Montreal, Quebec, etc, and to have
returned 10 a small town in this State, near the
Canada lima, where she was closeted with a male
eOnfrere from the South, and soon after leave, as
if DESTROYS of avoiding observation from any
one. She was last night arrested in st. Adams,
Vt, and it is reported here in Montpelier that
important State DOCUMENTS were found concealed
on her person. Communication with the rebels
across the Canada lines, and thence southwark,
through Vermont, has been long suspected, but
this is the first arrest. There may be rat-holes
on the Canada frontier, as well as in the South,
and President Lincoln should think about send
ing a stone feet, or any other sort Of whalers, in
that direction.

claim Of the United States to seize them in the
streets OF London says President Davis,
would have been as well founded as the sell
zure on board the Trent" As far as we learn
by telegraph, he does not presume to give Ms
advice or to say that we are bound to demand
reparatlon, but we cannot help thinking that the
probability Of a rupture between England and
the North inspires the President to use a high
tone with respect 10 foreign assistance. The
Contederates," says Mr.. Davis, ask no aid
from foreign powers"
This is just the language which a new State
must hold If it wishes to give its ~ueighbors an
excuse for recognizing its independence. The
only consideration in such a case is whether the
community which demands 20 be recognizsd has
the force and consistency which entitle it to
recognition. II 1t be de tactg q nation. if it prove
that it can maintain its own Independence, then
other governments are justified in communicat-
ing with it automatically. and treating Il A a
member of the family Of nations. But II il calls
on the world TO help it, it does BY this verv act
take away the right Of neutral powers to Tsat it
as an equal. 1t prOclaims that the State against
which it has revoltsd still has the power to con-
quer 1t, and consequently it is the duty Of neu-
trails to consider it merely as a province in a state
of instruction. President Davis fully knows
that no European State would recognize his gov
ernnent unless be demanded it as a ruler capa-
bic of holding his own position.
As to the general course Of events, Ia the

The Release of BrownIovv a BIunder.

The Knoxville Register, of the LIST inst, ex.
presses the opinion that B~ROwELow's release
was a great blunder, and gives the following
reasons:
In brief, DrOwnlow has preached at every
church and school house, made stump speeches
at every cross road, and knows every man,
woman and child, aud their fathers and grand.
fathers before them, in East Tennessee. AS a
Methodist circuit preacher, q political stump
speaker, a temperance orator, and the editor Of
a newspaper, he has been equally successful in
our division of the State.
Let him but once reach the confines of Ken
lucky, with bis knowledge Of the geography and
the population of East Tennessee, and our sec
ton will soon feel the effect Of his hard blows.
From among his own old partisan and religious
s~ectarian parasites, be will find men who will
obey him with the ~fanatical alacrity of those
who followed Peter the Hermit in the First Cru
SADIE. We repeat again, let us not undsrrate

alton of the enemy across tbs river, and along

at this hour their capital and corps d'armS are
more ANONYMOUSLY blOckaded than any part of
