GENERAL ORDER NO. /.
The attention of Commanding officers OF
the Regiments now in camp in Ohio, is call.
ed to the instructions contained in General
Order No. 81, and in the private circular ol
January IL, 1862. in regard to granting Leave
Of absence.
There Is abundant evidence, thot both off,
GERS and men are still to q very great extent
unnecessarily absent from the posts. At this
time, when any regimen. is liable to be call
cd suddenly into the field, no time should be
lost in making every possible preparation, by
constant and diligent study and drill. and by
the actual presence Of every member in the
camp; SO shat when the call is made, there
may be no delay.
From the great numbers Of officers con.

) THE Victory in Keptueky.


The details of the highly important
victory in Kentucky, as far as they
have yet reached us, will be found else
where in this paper. Considering the
number engaged, the fight seems to
have been sharp rather than a bloody
one. The Federal troops were under
command of General Geo. H. Thomas
of the regular army. He is a native of
Virginia, graduated at West Point in
1886, and at the opening Of the pres
ent war, was an instructor of artillery
and cavalry at that Institution. At the
time of the Bull Run disaster, he was
a Brigadier General in Patterson's di-
vision near Winchester.
The Confederate General Zollicofer,
was a member of the old whig party,
had been a leading editor in Tennessee,
and from 1853 to 1858, represented
the whig and American party in the
lower house of Congress where he was
held in general respect. The Baihe
Payton, who is specially named among
the killed, is not the old whig Congress
man of that name, as was at first sup
posed, but is his son, holding a place
on Zollicoffer's staff.
The result of this battle will tend
largely to increase the dependency
which for couple of months past, has
been gaining ground in the South. The
Immense accumulation of troops in the
North, and deliberation with which
they were being prepared for being
dashed on the Confederates, have been
gradually inpressing on the South a re-
newed consciousness of the desperate
Job it has on hand in striving to estab-
lish Southern Independence against
such odds in numbers and resources as
the North is able to array against them

battle is due to the Tenth Indiana, Ninth
Ohio, Fourth Kentucky, and Second Minnss-
ota for they did all the fighting single hand
ed, With the exception OF what support they
recsived from the artillery. They sill foaghs
nobly and never wavered from the fixed de-
termination to gain the victory.
The comoatants were so near each other

faces in the discharge OF their pieces.

The Corruption On the Govern

The New York Tribune expresses
the opinion that within the last ten
months the Union has been robbed of
a hundred million of dollars by corrup-
tion in the public service. This is far
more than the Government lost by
fraud and peculation under Democratic
rule from the beginning Of the Gov
ernment down to the period when it
passed into other hands. We guess
those people who were never tired of
berating Democratic extravagance
would rather have itone hundred times
aggravated than Republican retrench-
ment and reform!

AnstCsrs TO Questions in No. 81, proposed by
Inquirer.
.Arithmstical--B pays 1888, and A ST.
443 per acre. B gets l77.2, and A 1928
acres.
General Rul.-Compute the cost Of the
land at the given difference between the pri-
ces per acre, and subtract the result from the
gwen cost Multiply the subtrahend by four
times the sum paid by him who receives the
land Of inferior quality, and add to this pro-
duct the square OF the remainder. Extract
the square root of the sum, and add to the
root the remainder which was square. Di-
vide this sum by twice the number of acres
purchased. The result will be the price per
acre paid by him who receives the land Of
inferior quality. Having this result the ques-
ton falls within the primary rules Of arith-
metic.
Grammatical. Taking as q guide any STAN
dard work with which am acquainted. I
would say that "the defective ought and the
in6nitive with which it stands connected"
should be parsed as one word. For in the
sentence, "Wiliam ought to labor" to labor
denotes an action, while ought declares the
action to be duty. Again, in the sentence,
"William should labor" la5o- denotes the
action, while should declares the action to be
duty. Hence the sentences are equivalent
and similar But should labor is always par
sed as one word. Therefore infer, that to
be consistent with the teachings of all our
standard works, we should parse as above
stated. But il we take the mechanical struc.
ture Of oui language rs guide, we are for
ced to the conclusion that no two words
should, at any time, be parsed as only one
This may attempt to prove hereafter.
Geogrophical.-I have somewhere seen it
stated that the Mediterranean receives more
water from the Atlantic when the tide is
flowing than it gives back while the tide is
ebbing. Ifthis be true, it follows that more
water is evaporated from the surface of the
Mediterranean than is poured into it by its
tributaries. Hence 'it the Strait Of Gibral-
ter was completely blocked up" the Medi-
terranean would waste away by evaporation
until from its contracted surface no more wa
ter would be evapolated than would equal
the quantity poured into it by its tributaries.

The Death Of General XOIIiCOfer
..-His Last words with Colo.
mel Ery. who Shot Him.

Last evening we had conversation with a
reliable gentleman who arrived direct from
Somerset KY, saa Lexington. and from him
we gather the following particulars of the
death OF General Zollicotfer, the leader OF the
rebel forces at Mill Springs, KY, on Sunday
last Our informant obtained the particulars
from Colonel Fry, of the Fourth Kentucky
Regiment, who killed Zollicoffer. Colonel
Fry was lying in ambush with squad of.his
regiment. when Zollicoffer approached at the
head Of detachment OF troops, which de-
detachment was marching rapidly in advance
of the main Confederate forces. When the
General with his advance had arrived within
twenty feet of the ambush where Fry and
his men were concealed, the Colonel sprang
forward and drew his navy revolver and pre-
sen,ed it at the Confederate General We
NAV here state, parenthically, that Colonel
Fry, who halls from Lexington, and GeReral
Zollicoffer were for many years personal
friends, and IN their youthful days associates
in the same school.
Upon discovering Colonel Fry across his
path, General Zollicoffer threw up both
hands and exclaimed: "Hold. Fry: you
would not shoot your old friend. would your
Then placing his right hand on his pistol and
pointing back to his command, continued
Look, there are all your friends" which
remark was evidently intended to draw Fry's
attention away from him, while he would
improve the occasion by shooting Fry dead
in his tracks. The brave Colonel did NOT
heed the remark, but said: 81 will attend to
you first" and pulling the trigger, Zollicof-
er fell with ball pie ced through his breast
His last words were, Il am killed; ALPS
WE'LL" and with groan expired. The de
tachment then turned on their heels and re
treated to the main body of the army.
Those of the Contederates who were taken
prisoners censure General Zollicoffer for his
impetuosity, rashness and precpitats indis
cretion, and alege thai the defeat OF the reb
els at Mill Springs was in consequence o
