THE NEW YORK SUN.
THURSDAY MORNING, FEB. 10, 1862.


The hBt q series Of victories, which We
trust will end the present war, was the defeat
end disOandmen: Of HUMPHREY MARSHALL
forces in Kentucky. Then followed the WELL
contss'ed battle OF Mil Spring, resulting in the
complete overthrow Of the Rebel troops, the
death Of LoLLIcorrgn, and the capture, 10y the
Fedsrals Of a large amou.t Of munitions OF war.
Hardly had our people quoted their civilizations
over this important blow, when the capture Of
Fort Henry demonstrated the success Of our
inland gunboat fleet, and acquired another largo
and valuable store Of rebel guns ammunition
&C. 1t planted our dag, also, in Western Ten
nessee, and carried it triumphautly through
that state, to tho north of Alabama, scattering
and destroying Rebel vessels so successfully,
that cur fleet will henceforth command the Ten.
nessse river.
But the browning success of tho month has
been the glorious results Of tho Burnside Expe-
dition in which between twenty five hundred
ard three thousand rebel troops have been cap.
tured, their fleet of gunboats annihil itod, and
the panic stricken troops and Inhabitants so
quickly followed by our advancing forces thSt
the evacuation and burning Of their towns and
VILLAGE has taken the place of those deadly ef-
forts at resistance which they have 80 long
promised. This speedy advance of the Federals

telligence Of the departure from Ireland of 2Gi
emigrants, under circumstances which are not

four young men and women who had boon

Troops and supplies are being concentrated In the
southern portions Of the state, and the indications
appear favorable for an early advance. The gem
OF al himself Is working earnestly and increasingly
in the perfection Of the details Of the expo
diiion, and every department Is pushed to its
utn oct capacity. Seven regiments of cavalry, four
regiments Of infantry, and three full batteries OF

midable yet organized during the war.
