Military Strategy In Kentucky.
IE1nm tho Cincinnati Commercial. t5th /

We suppose there can be no harm in calling
the attention Of our readers to few facts re-
iating to the military movements in Kentucky,
Showing the stratcgy Of our Generals
For some time General Thomas L. Crittc1-
den las been at the head Of a strong division
Of Federal troops, forming the right wing of
General Buell1s army. He was on the left bank
of Green River, near South Carrolton, maneu-
vc1ing in front Of the rebel General Buckner's
division; Those who werc watching the move
mepts OF: the army were surprised, the other
day, to hear that he had suddenly retreated to
Calhoun, on Green River It turns ont that
lis retreat was with purpose. Steamers werc
awaiting him at Calhoun, the river very high,
and his whole army was taken down Green
River and tue Ohio, and up tho Tennessee,
Grants army.
After the battle Of Logan's Cross Roads,
movements were made as If with the purpose
uf advancing into East Tennessee ii force,
The Cumberland river was crossed at Waits
boro, and column was pushed toward Cum
bc1land Gap, while two brisadcs were moved
from Gen. Buclrs center toward his left.
The rebels understood that East Tennessee,
about which they arc peculiarly sensitive,
was the destination Of the troops, and hastily
Green through Nashville to Knoxville. Nov
we hear that the army Of General Thomas, in
| stead Of going to East Tennessee, has turned
hack to Danyille, and is marching to join Gen
e1al Nelson, at Glasgow, and hanking
Bowling Green on our left. Instead OF diyid:
ing his forces BY sending a heavy body ol
troops to East Tennessee, Gen. Buell. is con
continuing them by movement from the 1cfl
TO the center. Herein the rebels have beer
completely out-gene.aled. The troops they
have stnt to Knoxville, they eorely need OF
the Cumbtrland Gen. Carter's Brigade
| which has aavanced toward Cumberland Gap
Will probably tc employed merely as q corp.
Ct observation in that direction.
t 1twould not be surprising il tue advance O
|. Gen Bue]Ts main body across Green river
were designed to attract the attention Of th'
enemy, while the most effective Of the troop
arc to be euddenly directed to Louisville
there to be transported BY boat to take part i,
tire movement up the Tennessee and Camber
land rivers. The army under Gen. Grant i
assuming gigantic proportions. Troops or
being rapidly sent to him, not only from tn
| State cnfnt,s in the Northwest.
The 1l1st thing on the programme is TO tax
Fort Doneleon. The next, ciarks7ilIe. Til
next, Nashville. And, from the immens
number Of steamboats, chartered, It seem
thst IN army will be dispatched to Florence
r Alabama. Great events arc At hand
