The steamers Hettie Gilmore and Matte
Cook took the troops, with their baggage
and ratiops, from Calhoun to South Carroll
ton. Two skeleton regiments, commanded
By Coils. Burbridge and McHenry, remain
at Calhoun. The 42nd, 43rd, 44th and 3Ist
Indiana regiments are now encampsd at
South Carrolton. 1t is thought they will
shortly move from that point to Rochester.
We are credibly informed by a gentle
man who came down on the Hettie Gilmore
that the wagons taken to Calhoun, several
weeks since, are not yet put together, and
the mules intended for these wagons are not
broken. He says that some of the parts of
the wagons are ''missing." We believe
these wagons were furnished for the Ken
lucky regiments, rs the Indiana regiments
had their wagons before leaving this city.
There is culpable negligence some where,
aud if Gen. Crittenden's army intends to
take an active part in this campaign, 1t is
high time the wagons and mules, at least
were in readiness to move.
We are also informed by an officer in
General Crittenden's Division that the Ken
tHcky regiments are not two-tail-s full. 1t
would be a good plan to consolidate two or
three of these regiments, aud thus dispense
with number of superhnOus field officers
Why Kentucky regiments are allowed TO
go into the field with FIVE or six hundred
men, while Indiana regiments are required
TO MI up 10 the regulation standard, is
matter oil surprise to those who have watch
ed the matter. We have a regiment in this
State, at GOsport, containing 700 men, and
it has had this number for two mouths. and
il is not allowed to move. Kentucky has |
many privileges, and this one of passing of
skeleton regiments for full regiments of
1000 men each, is not the least or most
unjust of the privileges granted to that
State by the "powers that be-"

The signs of the times indicate that a
movement has at last commenced, in full
keeping with the urgent demands of the
people, the stupendous preparations of the
Government, and the unparalleled resources
and numbers of our great army. General
Grant at The head of nearly 22,Ooo men,
has gone southwark, apparently to Interceps
endorsements intended for Columbus, In
dicating that an attack on that stronghold ls
near at hand. Gen. Buelps column Ia In
motion, and Bowling Green will doubtless
be stormed before week. Gen. Burnside's
expedition will very soon reach its destina-
ton, and it requires little of the prophetic
spirit to predict an early attack. Every
where, except upon the Potomac, our forces
are in motion, and il is possible that as soon
as Gen. Mcclellan is restored to his accus-
toned health, activity will prevail in the
Division of the Grand Army in front Of
Washington. We are thankful for the move
ment already made, and we are confident
that it will be successful If it Is not sue
cessfnl now, it would not hava been, If the
men had longer tarried in their tents to be
decimated By disease and disheartened by
delay. if we cannot whip the rebels now,
then the task is hopeless before next sum-
mer. The men composing the armies in
Kentucky are not of the material of those
who, in the eventfuI battle of July 2Ist
"marched to the rear, to the sound of tbs
enemy's cannon" They enlisted to fight
they are in the field not for the pay or per
Erts s.-r,sz,e.s.-v.,-ss-
success of which would paralyze the indus
try of the Great West In such men W,
have confidence, and so far as we are con
cerned would stake the issue upon battl,
where the Western troops were allowed
fair field and an equal foe.
Indiana is largely interested in the com
ing contest at Bowling Greco. We have il
Kentucky twenty-nine regiments of infan
try, one regiment and four detached eompa
nies of cavalry, and five batteries, of 81,
pieces each. These troops are not surpassed
by any in the army in intelligence, physica
vigor and noble impulses. Indiana has
reputation to sustain, and she expects every
one of her children now in arms against th,
enemy to do his duty. A few more days O
suspense and the fate of the rebellion will
be decided. If Bowling Green is taken
Nashville and Memphis cannot be helC
against US, and the insurrection will b,
strangled SO effeetually that a few months
of active operations will end its career o
infamy.

STEAMER COURIER, Jan. Is, 1862.
Eds. Journal BY recent order of Gov.
Mago6in We are to have an election for
Congressman in the First District in Ken
lucky, to fill the seat now declared vacant.
Amongst the aspirants, 1t would appear
(from circular issued at Paducah, January
6th) that Judge L. 8. Trimbls is the gentle
man to whom many anxious eyes are turned
in this emergency. But find upon inquiry,
that many OF the gentlemen, whose names
are attached to that circular, were never
consulted In the matter, and, am positive
would never have given their consent to
have had them SO used.
No one, l presume, who knows Judge
Trimble, will deny, that in ability or ex-
perience perhaps, be is the equal of any
who may offer for the seat but these are
times when none of doubtful loyalty should
be left to fill positions, if any of great re-
sponsibility. None but men of known and
acknowledged loyalty and fidelity, to the
great cause for which we are now strug-
| Cling, should be thought of. [ am aware
that the Judge, some four or FIVE months
since, was q .ai Il to be one of the best
Union m-e IN las town, and all seemed
| willing to believe so. At that time
he was engaged in a business at Paducah,
which most men would have considered a
very lucrative one and all of his goods
were obtained on the faith of his supposed
lnxaltx.- Bnt in despite of the strictesl
loyal men, from, IN any way "aiding Oh
abetting" those persons known to be in
rebellion against the government, what
became of the enormous quantity of goods
received by him during the months of July
and August Did the loyal men in and
around Padueah require them? If such
was the case subsequent events have shown
woful falling off of their wants.
Himself and friends declare him faithful
to the great csuse. We are told, that faith
without works is dead. If such be the case,
his works would go very far towards de-
stroying all the confidence felt in him as a
faithful, true and loyal standard bearer in
the great struggle which is before US.
There are few left us, thank God, who
have the courage to stand forth, and in
thunder-tones boldly proclaim their undy-
ing devotion to the glorious cause. Such
an one is S. Il. Casey, Esq, =" the peoples
choice" aud if one can put any faith in
the declarations of confidence and express
sions of high regard entertained for him,
he will, to a certainty be the successful can
didate, and found to be the right man in
the right place" '~-

KNNTUCKY ELECTION.
SHAWNEErowN, Jan. d, Ise


MxssRs. EDrroRs: The election to be held
on the goth inst, in the First Congressional
District of Kentucky, is one of great i'm
portance, and one in which 1 feel deep
interest. 1t is of vital Importance to every
Union man in the District, that the very
best Union man who has presented his name
for their suhrages, should be elected. And
take great pleasure in recommending to
them, through your columns, Mr.. Samuel
L. Casey as that man. Mr.. Casey is well
known to US, to be sterling Union man
sound to the core, and in every way quail
fed and worthy-while his most prominent
opponent, Judge Trimble, who claims to be
Union man, has taken advantage of his
reputation as such, and obtained permits
from the Surveyors, on the Ohio river, to
take large quantities of goods to Paducah,
which we have been reliably informed were
not delivered at that place, but were shipped
Immediately up the Cumberland and Ten
nessee rivers to the land of Dixie.
These facts can be fully substantiated. Ii
consideration of which, would it not be vel
that the loyal men of the District be careful
in depositing their votes2 for is it not eviden
that Judge Trimble, as a Representative
would be no more loyal than as q citizen
| Would he not take further advantage of hi
position il elected, and give greater aid AM
comfort to the enemy2

A Deserved Compliment.

From private letter received in this city
we learn that the camp of the 25th Indiana
at ST. Loais, was the scene of an interest
ing ceremony on Wednesday last. At a
supper given by the officers of the 25tb,
attended by numerous officers from adjacent
regiments, splendid sword, belt, and Sur
geon's sash was presented by the officers of
the 25th, to DR.. JOHN j. WALKER. The
occasion was one long to be remembered by
the gallant boys OF the 25th. Dr. Walker,
by his untiring devotion to the men under
his charge has won the esteem of every
man in the regiment AS skillful sur
geon and physician and pleasant COM
panion in camp he is regarded by off,
and men as Invaluable. From our own
observation, while visiting the 25th we
know that DR.. Walkers labors are no
limited by any routine of duty Early and
late be is at work watching his patients
10 the hospital visiting the tents, and en-
forcing his sanitary regulations. /! is cw-
ing no doubt to bis untirinK care that the
list of the dead 10 this regiment is as small

sual fatigue and exposure. We are pleased

ciaIe the skill and energy of thir Regiment
