The omission Of thc goth regiment in the
List is not accounted for by tic Adjutant
General, and am unable to explain the cause.
The majority Of these regiments arc full and
in active service. The others have either been
or arc soon to be consolidated With other in,
compete regiments. The numbers will he as
stated in the above list. The whole force
raised in Kentucky aggregates 2S,970. The
First and Second Kentucky regiments ere in
Western Virginia. They were not raised un-
der State authority and are not considered III
the present report Of the Adjutant General.
Doubtless large number Of recruits for these
two regiments were enlisted in Ohio. It may
also be stated with truth, that Il large number
Of recruits hare gone from Kentucky to fill
up regiments from other States. This is par-
ticnlarly true in the case Of German regiments.
An Indiana German regiment received two
hundred and fifty recruits from this city.
Other instances may be quoted. Kentucky
las not ra1sed any exclusive German resi-
Inent.
Among the published list Of deaths among
the volunteers in the city hospitals, find but
q few from your State, and one or two from
deaths for the week ending December 9th,
are:
Ambrose Rachce, Company Il, 9th Illinois In
J. 3. Morrow, Company Il, 1st Michigan In
Edward F. B1apham, Company F, I'd Minnesota
Infantry.
A large number of prisoners have lately
been nlled to the large list Of the rebels now
Occupying winter quarters in this city. Four
tceu CAME in Oh Sunday, nine Of whom were
lately captured by a Capt Meter, at 4 station
on the Memphis branch rslilroad, within 10
miles Of Russel1yille and so Of Bowling
Green.
Cot. Kenneth's 4tll Ohio cavalry came over
from J"fiersonyillc, yesterday, and after
marching through the streets, departed for
Lebanon, where they will join Gen. Nelson's
Division, and sec some active service.
A movement has doubtless been made ere
this fronlC Cattlcsburg, uponHum phrey Marshall
who is reported to be for!ifyiug himself at
Prastonshurg. Two Ohio regiments, Col.
LabanT. Mo6rc's 18th Kentucky :, Col Ludsay's
22d Kentucky, and Col. Garfleld's regiment,
all under command of Col. Garfield, were to
have assembled at Cattleeburg last week, an}
in alt probability did so. Marshall's force will
exceed that Of Col. Garie!d's, If the report be
true that he has G 500 troops. But so grossly
has the number Of the rebels in this quarter,
in former instances, been exaggerated, that 1
AMI in no hurry generally to believe such
statements. Col. Garfield has been well sup
Piled with transportation, as well rs cavalry
and artillery. He has half 4 regiment Of cav
a}Iy and two full batteries Of heavy field orlf-
nance. 1t Was thought that Col. Garfield
would move On Monday OF Tuesday, aud
would ascend the river to Louisa, and thence
march by land to attack the redoubtablc fat
knight.
The Kentucky Legislature passed substi.
tute for the confscation act Of Congress,
which it is Intended to enforce in lieu Of thai
act. II provides that the property of rebels
who may have remained in the so-collcd South
eTn Confetieraey for thirty days shall be sub
ject to attachment. The thirty days having
expired in the cases Of Gen Simeon B. Buck.
ncr, Col. W1n. Preston and Ed Crutchhcld OF
this city, attachments wcic filed in the Chan
ecry Court, on Saturday, against the estates OF
these men. The property attached will az
gregate u value Of SG0, Goo
Quartermastcr Swords Of this department
has hecn dispatched to Cincinnati for the i'm
mediate shipment Of a1l the lumber, harness,
wagons and anbu1ances at that point.
