Taking the Ton Rail.

A correspondent writing to the Cleve-
land Herald from the lO3d Reg. o. V. l.,
is responsible for the following:
At times, camped upon secession prem
ises, our boys have been forbidden to
take any but topmOst rails. Camp Wells
was located upon the farm of a noted Sc
cessionist named Hogan. We arrived
there after dark upon a rainy. chilly ev-
ening. In accordance with orders from
headquarters. Colonel Easement directed
us to burn only the top rails" In the
morning the General visited our camp,
and upon approaching Colonel Easement,
remarked. Colonel, your men are in
structed to only take top rails, and they
have taken the whole fence" Colonel
Jack quickly replied. Yes, General. but
they took the top rail each time" well"
said the General with a smile, "in future
they must take the top rail but once
This incident is related by some who
claim to have overheard the conversation
but your correspondent will not vouch
for its authenticity, except in 40 far as it
is alleged that the l03d boys did continue
to burn top rails until the entire fence
disappeared, which is a veritable fact.

toon bridge has been thrown across the
Potomac. The remainder embracing the
three corps under Burnsine's command
will speedily follow.
simultaneously with this, the troops at
Harper's Ferry, composed of Hooker's
old corps, now commanded by Reynolds,
and the corps of Fitz John Porter, are
also on the march. They probably Ell
camled last night near the head of
Pleasant Valley, ready to follow Burn
sides troops.
The elements ale unpropitious. Until
yesterday morning the roads were dry
and in splendid condition for marching,
but soon after daylight a cold. driving
rain commenced and has continued
without interruption up to this morning.
The roads are very muddy, and after be-
ing kneeded by a few thousand infantry
will be almost impossible. The storm
is exceedingly severe on the men.
The evacuation of Winchester by the
rebels and their falling back towards
Staunton is confirmed by several citizens
who came into our lines yesterday. The
small pox has broken put with unusual
violence both among the people Winches-
ter and the troops, and this probably
FASTENED the departure of the rebels.

The Campaign in Kentucky

The campaign in Kentucky, says the
Cincinnati Commercial, Is virtually at an
end. 1t is useless to conceal the fact that
onr people are as bitterly disappointed in
the result as the rebels can be. They
failed in taking Cincinnati and Louisville,
and we failed in capturing them. Bragg
and Kirby Smith have succeeded N escap-
ing through Powell's Gap into East Ten
nessee, wieh their wagons and ammuni-
ton trains. and their immense spoils. II
is said the pursuit was abandoned because
of the impossibility of obtaining subsist-
ence for the army. 1t is believed that
Bragg will make direct for Nashville, and
we shall probably have a portion of the
army counter-marching in that direction
to head him of. At all events, the reb-
els except the guerrillas under Morgan,
and few detached squads paowling about
in various localities, are out of the State
and it is too late in the season to antici.
