FfcHr NEAR PREsroNBuRe KY yin our
notice of the fight near Prestonburg last
week, we put the cnemy's loss at 400
We stated it from the information we
then had. We have since seen an officer
Of Cen. Marshalls command who was
in the fight, and he informs us that the
loss OF the enemy was valiously estim
tated, ranging from 200, and upwards.
The Federal forces were under the
command Of Col. Garfield, and not Col
Moore,as we s ated. ~ ztaf
Gen. Marshall's loss was nine killed
and not exceeding twenty wounded =
some very slightly.
In another column wegive the report
of the enemy, which makes quite a
different showing as to the result. Their
ioss'is put down as small, and the Con.
federatc loss quite heavy. We prefer
believing those whom we know, to the
enemy, who is always given to lying.

A New PRopELLER.-A A. 0bendoffer
OF Norfolk, has invented a new pro
pelling powec for steamers, of which
the Richmond Dispatch says: oil aa ats
1t is a wheel placed upright unde1
the stern Of the boat, with paddles con
nected with the engine by horizontal
shaft The model which we saw is con
posed of wheel six inches in diameter
worked by small clock instead of au
engine; and this miniature machine
propels the boat in which it is placed
(some three feet long and weighing
about twenty-five pounds with the
ballast) at the rate of seventy-fve feet
per minute. The construction of the
boat is such as to protect the wheel
and rudder from shot, and it might be
used with great success in the imme-
diate vicinity Of an enemy's ship. Mr..
Obendoffer deserves credit for his in
genuity, and we hope the naval auth
critics will give his invention tho

the Memphis Aealanede Of Wednesday:
We learn from a. friend just from
Bowling Green that matters are quiet
there just now; that large amount OF
provisions had arrived and was stored
in that city for army purposes; that
the large number Of Federals which had
crossed Green river bad been driven
back by Gen. Hindman; that all the
produce, houses and mil,s north of
Bowling Green had been destroyed, so
that the Yanke could find no shelter
and no feed; that the roads had been
plowed up, and trees felled across them
to stay the advance of the Yankee; and
that sixty days would not elapse before
teu thousand good and true Southern
men would rise up in the. rear Of the
Yankee army and fight their way

of Napoleon's OLD guard, could have behaved
with more dauntless spirit than mauy of oul
regiments at Cross Keys.
