OF for New Oricans.--Thc Cairo
Expedition Under way.

This expedition commenced moving
on Friday. There is strategy in this
movement. L very body supposed it was
to force its way down the Mississippi,
to run the gauntlet of death between
open and masked batteries along its sides
and over submarine batteries along its
bottom. But it is doing no such thing.
1t leaves all these internal arrangements
on the right and goes mp the Tennessee
River, where no impcdimcnt exists for
several hundred miles. Columbus and
all other barricaded points are passed
by and the two Federal armies meet at
Nashville, forming land junction there.
This is most daring movement, planting
our standard in the heart of the enemy's
country, with Xollicoffer and Pope with
two large armies in the rear. The Great
Northwest is more interested in this
movement than any other portion Of the
country, because it is to open one of the
great natural outlets for our trade, and
is also an Expedition composed of Wes-
tern men. Every citizen should stand
ready as minute mer to go forward the
moment help is needed, and see this
grand old thorougfare, this "Father Of
Waters" cleared Of pirates and the
country round about cleared of rebels.

From Kentucky.

CiScINNAr1, Jan. 1.-THE Gazette
learns from the editor Of the late Sandy
Valley 1dyocate, now one of the propri-
etors of the Louisville Democrat, who
arrived here from Sandy Valley yester-
day that the second rebel invasion OF
Eastern Kentucky has ended in a dis
graceful rout.
On Mon 'ay last Col. Garfeld's forces,
including the AID Ohio, 10th Kentucky
and 1900 cavalry had proceeded up the
Big Sandy to Paintsville, within 7 miles
Of the rebel camp, when they were met
by flag Of truce bearing a message from
Humphrey Marshall, asking if matter,
could not be arranged without q fight.
Col. Garfield Immediately replied he
could offer no arrangements except eth
er fight or surrender unconditionally.-
Marshall then addressed his men, in.
forming them that they had no alterna
tive, excepting surrendering or to dis.
band, and giving them their choice the,
decided to disband. They Immediately
collected and set fire to their wagons
tents, camp eluippage, supplies, &c
and then each man was permitted tc
take care of himself, and the whole force
scattered in confusion. No attempt was
made to save anything excepting Their
cannon, which were hauled off.
Col. Garfield dispatched his cavalry
in pursuit They expect to capture the
guns, and perhaps pick up many of thG
flying robels.
The rebels in North Eastern Ken
lucky, from the high estimate in which
Humphrey Marshal's military abilities
were held, had strong hopes of success
under his leadership.
a sufficient Federal force will be left
in this region to secure its future peace
and safety.

Some time ago Gen. Hooker asked Nc
Clellan what he should do with so or 60
fugitive slaves who were in his lines at
Budd's Ferry. Gen. Mcclellan replied
with an order directing him to enquire
in each case whether tho fugitives had
or not, been employed in tho military
service of the enemy; if he had been, Gen.
Hooker should employ him, if not he
should exclude him from his lines, thus
orally libcrating him, leaving the final
disposition Of the bondmen to the civil
authorities. 1t is understood that a
similar rule will hereafter be applied IN
every case occurring within the army of the
Potomac.
