The Legislature.

The Legislature seems to have got fairly I'M
der way. The Governors message which we
can give but in part, is a straight forward,
able document, and speaks for itself. We
are glad to notice that senator Edmunds in
troduced resolution at the beginning of the
session enquiring into the condcut of the Yer
mont eth regiment at the battle of Baton
Rogue.
A bill TO pay the nine months soldiers the
- month from the state passed both houses
This was expected, though the readiness
with which it was done surprised some.
Hon Milo Bennett, chairman of the COM
mittee appointed to revise the statutes. has
made a report which has been transmitted to
the legislature. The members are divided in
regard to action upon this report, some being
Tor postponing altogether all action until an.
other year, on the plea that in these times we
know not what year may bring forth.
Gen John W. Phelps is now at the state
cabltal. He addressed the legislature Mon
day evening in the Representatives Hail.
He spoke upon the affairs of the country Of
course, and the papers say with great earnest
ness and force
On Tuesday Solomon Foot was elected
United States senator for another term of six
years; duty which the legislature owed the
country, as Mr. Foot could not be spared from
the senate in these times. Some idea of the
value in which this Vermont senator is held
may be gathered by perusing brief sketch
on our outside, taken from New York pa
per. The vote for Mr. Foot, on Tuesday. in
the Senate, was unanimous, and in the House
he received 206 out of2l3 votes cast. A very
hattering vote.
There is talk Of short session, and many
will endeavor to make it short and profit.
able one, while others will probably trig the
wheels and otherwise do all in their power
to spin it out.

of about 225, turned their horses and took
to flight, never stopping, it is said, until they
had crossed Licking river. One of the woun-
ded was young Irish recruit from this place,
who joined the company about half an hour
previous to the attack. Some s or 10 young
men from this precinct fell in with the secesh
as they passed through. Most of the com.
pany were persons who had formerly volun-
teered from this county.
What horrible state ofcase exists here in
Kentucky. Neighbor is arrayed against
neighbor, and in many cases brother against
brother, and father against son. Refugees
pass here daily-men who have escaped fiom
the clutches of the secesh in the counties
South of here, and are seeking safety in the
camps of the Union army.
The rebels are having rather extended
holiday in Kentucky, and are devastating the
fairer portions of the State. 1t is believed,
however, that the time is near at hand when
they will be ousted from the State, and the
citizens thereof restored to their wonted free
dom. Buell. with an immense army has left
Louisville for the interior of the State, while
another army of untold proportions is COM
ing out from Cincinnati on the Lexington
railroad. Gen Morgan, from Cumberland
Gap, has reached the Ohio river, opposite
Portsmouth, o., who is to proceed at once
with his $4,000 or 10000 drilled men TO
Maysville or Cincinnati, to assist in the gen.
eral move against the rebels.
A horrible occurrence took place in this
county, two days ago. One Of our most re-
spectacle citizens, Union man and former
representative of this county, was attacked
by two of his slaves, with clubs, in field,
and beaten to death. After they had killed
him they buried him, and then took to fight.
A few hours after, the affair was found out
and the murderers pursued and caught. The
next day the excited populace took the ne
groes and hung them. The master was a
kind and indulgent one. The immediate Of
Tense was the whipping of one of his boys
the day before. Nd.

The West gives US the most news this
week. Gen Bragg attacked Gen Buell. on
Wednesday, and was repnlsed. 1t was hard
battle, our army losing 1900 in killed and
wounded. The rebels re,reated and were
followed by the federal army. 1t is time to
hear more from it but for some reason the
details have not come to hand.
The quiet of the Potomac was considerably
disturbed by the raid Of Stuart's cavalry in
to Pennsylvania. 1t seemed to be another of
those daring da>hes which has made the reb-
cl cavalry famous. They went 20 or 30 miles
into the Key state completely encircling
Gen McClellan's army and after stealing all
the horses they wanted, helping themselves
to some new clothes and hasty plate of
soup, they made good their retreat into Nir
GINA. The federal cavalry attached to Nc
Clellan's army undertook to intercept these
raiders and drive them into some big sack
which was arranged for them, ia pastime
sometimes called dragging the rebels,") but
the mouth the sack not being large enough,
or for some other reason the federals have
their empty bag on hand ready for the next
grst This raid proves two things: that the
free states are not yet free from invasion,and
that the Southerners are not all savages; as
We have yet to learn CT single instance of
violence by this cavalry force in their late
trip into Pennsylvania.
The elections occurred on Tuesday in
Pennsylvania. Ohio, Indiana and Minnesota.
We have yet no returns, but as over sixty
members Of Congress were to be elected in
these states considerable interes. gathers a.
round these elections There will doubtless
be some Nallandigham- mers chosen, but for
the good name of these states and the wei
fare of the nation, we hope their number is
small.

Letter from Kentucky,
NORTHFORK. KY, Oct &.

NoRTHFoRK, KY, Oct 6, 1862.
To the Editor of The Caledonian:
Since my last communication number of
events of Importance have transpired in this
immediate vicinity. The most important of
these is the battle of Augusta in Bracken
county, resulting in the burning of the town.
The place is on the Ohio river, 20 miles be-
low Maysv.le, and is one of the handsomest
and weaithiest towns on the river. Colonel
Bradford, resident of that place, was en-
gagged in raising regiment, having in camp
l2j men. The secesh to the number of 500
made an attack upon the former, who we're
driven to the town, and fought afterwards
from the houses, killing and wounding IS or
so. The result was that the secesh fired the
town, burning over two squares, in fact, the
main part of the city. Some u or 20 of the
Unionists were killed and wounded, and the
rest taken prisoners, all Of whom except the
officers were Immediately paroled.
On Tuesday last squads of secesh cavalry
appeared in this (Mason) county. who drove
in the federal pickets at Maysville, capturing
two Of them whose mules took the G."
and refused to save them from the enemy
On the next morning 20 resolute fellows sta
toned themselves at the fair grounds, three
miles out from Maysville, to await the ap-
proach of the secesh who were known to be
advancing towards the city. AS they came
dashing along the pike, whooping and halloo-
ing like so many Indians, those in ambush let
fly vo!ley in their midst, wounding two
slightly, whereupon the company, consisting
