THE FEDERAL ARMY IN KENTUCKY DE
ORAIIZED.

A correspondent OF the Clncnnatl Gazette,
writing from Campbellsvile, KY, under date
of the Oath ult., represents that there Is an
immense amount Of dissatisfaction among the
Federal troops in Kentucky, growing out of
the inaction that has characterized the Federal
army This correspondent gives us an in
sight into tie bickerigs and dis
content that have taken hold among
both officers and men, and grown
as vile weeds grow, and if he tells the truth
| and there is no reason to douot lt-the LIN
coin army in Kentucky is thoroughly demoral-
lied. Here Is an instance 10 SUSTAIN thls posi-
ton:
Some eight or ten days ago an order was
gent down from Lebanon by Gen. Thomas to
commcnce fortifcations on some point near
Columbia, but it produced such dissatisfaction
amongst the officers that it is now understood
the order was withdrawn. One of the Ken
tuckv colonies went so far in his expression OF
dislike to this order especially, and the man
aeement of Gen. Thomas generally, as to ten
der his resignation, the Consequence of which,
! had it been adhered to, would have been
in all probability the disbanding Of the regi-
ment
But this disaffecticn is widespread and here
| is the proof:
The position of affairs in this State at this
time is subject of constant remark and crltl
c;sm. You hear and see nothing of this IN the
columns of the Louisville journal or Demo
crat-at least very little. But you cannot
travel anywhere in this State. from Louisville
to Lexington, Lebanon, Danville or Columbia
without catching expressions Of the utmos
importance at our movements. dissatisfaction
with some of our generziiss, and want of capac
ity either in their capacities or fidelity.
It is altogether useless for the louisville
papers to attempt to suppress criticism, o
make their readers believe all is gong right
A great deal is said about civilians mindlnI
their own business and military men n4indinl
theirs This is well enough, if it was needed
but there' is the point. The people, or, civil
ians, if you please, say that military men q
, not mind their own business, and. unfortu
, nately fer the country, illustrate their assel
ton By manifold instances which cannot
controverted or denied. The complaints Vi
tered by these civilians, moreover, are not COZ
fined to that class, but find proof and cenn
nation of the same in the expressions Of To
J military themselves.

Onson and american says that Gen. Hindnan,
with 900 cavalry, went to Rowlett's Station, 3
miles this side of Green River, few days
since, and burnt the Station House and all

1t is thought that all public houses between

Another dispatch, dated Cairo. 10th inst.

THE ENEMY ON OUR COAST.

The steamer Grey Cloud, which has been
lying concealed from the enemy for some time
at Biloxi, ran out on a venture Wednesday,
and came through the sound safely, arriving
here early this morning. She reperts only six
of the cneiny's vessels around Ship Is.and,
although there have been as many as % in
sight from tie mainland at one time. Colonel
James, Of Biloxi, who came passenger on her,
furnishes us with the following budget of news
from quarter that is now invested with deep
interest on account of the proximity to the en-
emy and to our own homes
On Tuesday, the 7th inst, three French ma
val officers with sixteen men, landed at Biloxi
and desired to communicate, by telegraph,
with the French Consul at New Orleans. Tie
Office at Biloxi having been closed, Lieut.. Pra-
dat, who had acted as interpreter On their ar
rival, volunteered to accompany them in their
boat to Bay St Louis, @hitner they went ac-
cordingly.
They reported the fact that their vessel, a
sidewheel steamer, had been run into acclden-
tally by one of the U. S. steam vessels Of war,
and that their craft had been badly crippled in
Ship Island. She one of the Anglo-French
naval squadron, which they reported to have
arrived ofs our coast, twenty-tOur sail strong
On Wednesday they returned and obtained
their answer, by telegraph, from the French
Consul.
Since the visit of the enemy to Biloxi on the
31st ult, they have not been near the main
land. On that OCCASION they came in three
gunboats, of which, the Henry Lewis,
towed 32 launches, and was crowded with
troops. The two little cannon in the place
were given up to them as it would have
been madness to resist but the Home Guard.
consisting of about SO old men, kept their
arms Captain Smith told the Mayor of BIZ
loxi, Capt. Fewell, that he was perfectly we'll
acquainted with the number of their arms and
all their resources.
All of the towns On the lake coast are being
deserted and the people are moving into the
interior. 1t would be useless to send troops
there while the enemy have command of the
sound and can shell the whole coast with i'm
punity. Seven negroes have proved traitors
and gone off 10 the fleet. Four Of them belong
| ing to Mr.. Alfred L, wis, were chased by thei,
master, when a Yankee gun-Soat came to then
rescue and took them board. Two Others
belonged to widow lady at Biloxi, and one t.
Mr.. John Higgins. All the other negroes are
sent into the country.-Nea0 Orleons Delta

HOW 70 GROW OLD GRACEFULLY,

Who grows old gracefully? Who dis
play charm through the dun and sunken eye,
the fadod check, the thin grey hair, the shrink
ing weakening frAsFe, on which time strikes
the hour more punctually than minister
bell
Not the worldly y-hearted, who grudge each
wear that cuts off portion for enjoyment, and
shortens the lease of life; who walk in
;houghtlessness among seen things, and re-
yard not things unseen and eternal. Not the
rovetous whose satisfied to morrow never ar
rives and who have always something more
to gain ere the account may close Not the
fashionable beauty, who trembles at decay,
and blatnes the bad taste of modern styles that
hint at unbecoming changes. Not the STUDENT
who has always schemes of discovery and at
tainments in view, for which even patriarchal
age were insufficient. On these, old age sits
IaTkwardly, as if it were a burden suddenly
alchted on their shoulders from some unknown
region whittier they had been accidentiy be-
trayed. No; it is nothing earthly to patent
an invention that can remedy the trace OF time,
or supply a subs itute for joys that perish
with the using"
But it is the high privilege Of Christianity
to proclaim the heavenly recipe whereby the
hoary head may become crown OF glary, and
to point to- the path of the just, which is as
g the shining light, that shineth brighter and
brighter, unto the perfect day )" wherein old
age gldeS Serenety 10 the gateS ol tue teleo-
tial city," and " to live is Christ while to die
is gain"
If temperance industry, benevolence, bene-
fit the health, and reap a. present reward,
how much more the tranquilising influence OF
peace with God, holding the passions in sub
ection, regulating the mental apowers, spread,
ing the charm of contentment over the placld
face and the smile of love arotnd the hip where
s' the law Of kindness" dwells! Here is no
melancholy cariacture of life, aping what T. is is
gone, for the merry sports of more youthful
folly bat here is the grace that dignifies what
is and comnai1ds the respect even OF those
who know rot whence it springs.
The same Sod who watered the seed ere
the blade sprung to light, and whose care has
cherlshed'it to maturity, still gazes with ,nh
mite complacency on the shock of corn fully
ripe and while he permits it to linger on the
stem, it is only that more witnesses OF It's
goodness may gather round, ere he reaps 1t II
triumph for the garner of heaven.
He, whose life has been an epistle OF Christ
and whose ever presiding glory of God, and ht
alone, grows old gracefully, and halls time al
friend, who just touches to only remind h nm
that the nig ght is far SPENT and the day Is
