Aslpsrs OF souYHsRH MEN II KnSruoxY.
Tn following from the Louisville JssrsAl
ahows how Ksntuckians are seized by the
Yankee authorities and foYeibly hurried out
Of the state, In defiance Of law and justice:
We learn from the Cincinnati papers that
Deputy IT, >. MARSHAL u. b. Petit, Of Bour-
bon county, arrived At 'Covington on Tues
ris, and John Hlgxins, Of Magonin county,
both noted rebels, who have for length or
time been giving aid and comfort TO the re.
bells. Higgins was taken prisoner In Mont
gomery county, few days since, BY Capt.
q. N. Hall, Of Col. Eppsrson's regim snt =
He has been supplying the rebels with pro.
visions and other means OF eustenaLce.-
Rogers had number OF letters In his posses.
SION, from parties OF the State, to friends aud
relatives in the southern army
One OF the letters 10 from Frank TrOutman,
of Paris, law partner OF W m. 4. Simms, now
a Captain in The rebel army, and it details
the condition Vt SimMs's property and AZ
fairs, and conveys other information quite
in te ressing to the rebel Captain. Rogers mas
been carrying ON this private mail System
tor long time, and WAS II most valuable
ally of the re bells. he was arrested at Paris,
aud the twain were sent down to the United
states authorities in Covington for lmpris-
onment. After remaining IN jail for = short
time, the news of the arrest got abroad, and
some secessl on sympathizsrs in the city made
an effort to procure the release Of the pr ison-
ers on . writ OF habeas corpus, but Deputy u.
S. Surveyor f. h. Sam aeis, who mad the
matter in hand, had anticipated the move.
emit by taking them over to Cincinnati,
where they were placed In the cuStooy Of u.
s. Niarsnal A. y. sands, and the probability
is that the prisoners are far on their way 10
place Of perfect security.
The PROSPECT OF PIaHf.
The Frankfort correspondent Of the Gin
cinnati Commercial says
Az ventured to predict several days back,
81 rvysl1 o fAra n a
Sch0epf until the latter IL strong enough 10
make the attack. One of rs objects IL to
hold quiet possession Of the river until the
coal, prov isions, and produce have been boat
ed out TO Nashville, an d this would be defeat.
ed By bringing on q fight. If two or three
more regiments are given to Schoepf, he can
and will drive the rebels out; OF. if u force Of
six thousand will move down from Uolum bia
and get in his rear, the whole party can be
captured. This u the opinion Of those at So.
smerssf, and OF gentlemen Of intelligence now
in this city, who know every foot vi the ter
ritOry.
From a letter in the Cincinnati Commercial,
dated Frankfort, December 10, we extract The
folio ing:
If tie agitation OF tho negro question Is
kept up by the radicals in Congress, fear
that we will lose strength in this State. AL
though ii is no just reasO n for opposing the
Government anu It's policy, i xo6T L00t IL
radical councils prevail, much moral, il not
physical support, will be Withdrawn from
the cause Of the Union. Men who have ever
been uncondition ally Union, can hardly bear
the idea that Lo yejoy, Thaddeus Stevens,
sumner, and Jim Lane are to be the rulers Of
the destiny Of this people.
As have heretOfO fore said, the sentiment Of
our people Is unanimous that the Pr sident
sho aid refuse the demand of England for q
release of Slidell aud Mason, and If war en-
sue, our State would furnish more troops for
such a war than are now in the field.
A sIsGULAR caARAcrBR-1RDExAL DIsrRusT OF
KnHTucKIAks, &C.
From the Louisville Bowling Green) Gov.
rier, OF the 2sth ult., we extract the following
items:
There IL q soldier in one Of tho com.
panies at Hopkinsville who never wore q
he seems determined to keep his head COOL
He is certainly an eccentric charac ter, but he
has fire In mis- eye and strength in his arm.
A gentleman informs W that while near
he learned that the distrust Of Kentuckians
il SO great that none are permit TO do pick
ct duty for fear they will desert. It must be
very com Portable TO the Kentuckians to BE-
treated in this way by their "brethren" OF
the North. It IL q notable fact that they
are nowhere sent In advance.
sJowIsa rP OF 4 sRIsr MILL.
The Bowling Green Courier, Of the 2sth,
says:
About O'Clock on Christmas morning, a
steam grist mill. while being used by the 9th
Kentucky regiment. blew up, dangerously
wounding II. Carr, Of Capt. Bsschay's COM
pany of Portland Rangers. cOrrespon dent
saws:
The accident occurred about midnight, and
the escape OF the rect OF the detail II truly
wonderful. Tho explosion was very loud,
and one or two regiments beyond as and more
remote from the mill turned out and were
drawn up In line under arms The boiler was
IN miserable order, for a careful and expert
enced eng ineer had charge Of the ensine-
Carr Is better and will recover.
