A bright ray OF light comes TO us
from tho direction of the tomb OF
Washington. Again have our brave
sons on the soil Of Virginia driven
back, and almost destroyed and ut
ter!y demoralized the greatest and
best army Of the North. 1t will be

the blow we will have a breathing
time again before no makes his next
effort. Let us diligently use the
golden Opportunity and prepare by

foes. Whenever ordered to advance,
they have done 50 regardless oi the

death as to Il festival.

Interesting from Kentucky.


Clark Co. advices say that Jack Bruner,
with company of rebels, went up Red liv-
er to capture Jim Townsend's Home Guards
The rebels were defeated with great slaugh-
ter.
Gen. G. W. Morgan left but four guns at
Cumberland Gap, and those with trunions
knocked off.
Col. j. D. Bruce, son-iu-law of Gen. Leo
lie Coombs, receives the highest common
dations in military circles here for his ope-
rations al Bowling Green. $3.50
The rebels burned bridge near Auburn,
Monday night. Bruce Immediately sent
thither the 10th Ind lana, and part of the
9th Kentucky, rebuilt the bridge, and routed
the enemy at Russelville, killing and wound
ing fifty, and taking fifty prisoners: also
forty horses and saddles. He also routed a
party at Glasgow yesterday, taking ten
prisoners, Including Lieut.. Col. Grew, Capt.
Brown, and Lieut. Thomas.
A Portsmouth dispatch to Gov. Robin
son, says John Morgan with 10000 men,
yesterday attacked the Garter County Home
Guards, near Olive Hill. After several hours
severe skirmishing, Morgan was repulsed
and 90 of his men killed.
Morgan then retreated towards Licking
river, burning 25 houses on his way. Last
night Morgan returned to Olive Hill
Meantime Col. Beipert went to Portsmouth
and brought 500 of the 18th Ohio.
Bardstown advices says the rebels have
from 80, 600 to $4,000 within a circle of
ten miles in diameter around Bardstown.
Our central advance was this afternoon
four miles this side of Bardstown. They
had been skirmishing and driving the rebels
before them for the past three days. We
captured 500 prisoners.
It is said Kirby Smith arrived at Frank
fort with 10000 men, and Humphrey Mar
shall is on the way thitheI with 5000. The
rebels evidently mean to make a stand at
Frankfort, and battle at Bardstown seems
imminent.
Bragg and Buckner left DanyiIle for Lex
ington Tuesday.
Bragg, in speech at Danville, Monday,
threatened sending every man who would
not join the rebel army, to the north side of
the Ohio.
The rebels are cutting new roads from
Bardstown to Springfield and Lexington.
Leading rebels and officers of the rebel
army are circulating the most absurd stories
in the places occupied by them. For in
stance, that Gen. Nelson was killed because
he supported President Lincoln's recent
proclamation, and that Buell. resigned be-
cause of that proclamation, but concluded
to hold his position six days longer, in the
hope that Lincoln would amend that docu-
men;. The rebels are rigidly enforcing
the rebel conscription act wherever they
have temporary control.

Makes fem Squirm.

Z The. rebels, like nest of kissing reptiles,
when they are disturbed, are beginning to
squirm and hiss at Lincoln's proclamation.
1t hurts them, and they know that it is
just the thing that will finally obliterate
them, and the only iptImation that has given
them ife-slavery. They may tremble,
and rave, and tear their hair, but their cake
is dough. On the e9th ult., Smms, of
Louisiana, submitted joint resolution in
the rebel Congress, denouncing it in very
strong terms, saying:
at is leveled against the citizens of the
Confederate States, and is such a gross VIC
laton of the usages of civilized warfare, an
outrage on the rights of private property,
and an invitation to all the atrocities of ser
vile war, and therefore should be held up to
the execration Of mankind and counterac-
ted by such retaliatory measures as in the
judg ment of the President may be best cal
culated to secure its withdrawal or arrest its
execution"
The Richmond Wing of October 1st says:
'Our military operations, are henceforth
| to assume a very grave character. The

stroy all terms between US. The next cam
paign will be tremendous one, both in the
