Ray The army of the Ohio seems to
have been disposed on various roads
leading toward Tennessee, and gone into
camp for rest and await equipments.
This is necessary. Many of the regi-
ments are without blankets, and, some
without overcoats. None, we believe,
have tents. All these were left behind
when Buell. went out to bag the Rebels
The troops have suffered intensely in con-
sequence. A week will suffice to equip
them, and probably by this time a portion
Of the army is in mOtion.-Wad. C0ur.

GUERLILLAs IN ILLINoIs.-From pas
sengers by the Duke we learn that on
Thursday right last band Of sixty guer-
rillas crossed the river near Caseyville,
at the mouth Of the Saline, where they
robbed a man named Jones of lot of
boots and shoes They then went to
Sellers Landing and stole one or two
horses and several guns, including one
Henry rifle. They next went down be-
low and stole a fine stallion from man
named Blakely. They then went ont
three miles into the country to Leadbet-
ters farm, but what they took there we
did not learn.
1t is supposed that they had built boats
in the woods for the express purpose of
crossing the river, as no boats had been
left ON the Kentucky shore
The thieves played it very fine during
their operations. When they went to a
place, they took all the family prisoners
and took them with them in order to
prevent any one giving the alarm or
carrying information to the gunbOats.
Ofcourse they returned unmolested to
Kentucky.
Now, is not the cup of their iniquity
and impudence about full? or shall our
troops be allowed to lie in comfortable
quarters until spring and until the plum
dering scoundrels shall have ravaged the
entire border?
We have troops enough in camps on
the line of the Ohio river to sweep every
rebel and guerrilla horse thief out of
Southwestern Kentucky, and it is but
Just that we expect them to be active and
vigilant in hunting them out These
plundering vagabonds will never come
to our camps. We must hunt out their
camps and break them up, and hunt
down the guerrillas as we would a ra-
yenous wolf The people demand ac-
ton They have right to demand and
expect action and protection.

g9~ Green ofthe Sun, gets off a tissue
of falsehoods in reference to the rumor
that Morgan was marching on this city.
He says the city was frightened out Off its
propriety; the bank officers were making
arrangements for moving their funds;
the Journal editor hid in a cellar, and,
finally says there was no foundation for
the rumor
Of course there was a lie in every line,
without it may have been the last We
have no doubt, Green is well posted in
reference to the movements and inten-
tentions of his friend Morgan, over whose
operations he seems SO to rejoice.
The editor of the Sullivan Democrat,
to prove that he can excel Green, if any
man can, repeats the falsehood, stealing
them from the Sun; thus adding petit
larceny to the mendacity Par mobile

ILLINOIS CorToN.-The Alton Demo
crat says:
The experimental cotton crop of Illi-
nois is now gathering. 1t is estimated
that the State will produce twenty thou
sand bales for export this season. The
variety grown is the upland, principally
from seed procured in Tennessee. The
quality is excellent and the quantity per
acre, SO far as is known, exceeds that of
the cotton growing districts further south.
The uncertainty of procuri.g seed in the
early part of the season prevented many
from planting; but the result of this
years experiment is highly encouraging
Illinois could grow five hundred thou
sand bales proiitably.
