Morgan's Raid in Kentucky.

One Of the most brilliant features
that has characterized the present war,
was Gen. John IL. Morgan's late raid
in Kentucky.
Gen. Morgan left Murfresboro on tho
2lst. Of Dec, with four hundred non
passed through Alexandria - crossed
the Cumberland at Hardee's ford, and
proceeded to GLASGOW, whore Il small ad'

advance Of the End. Michigan cavalry

tally wounded--Lieut. Patton and SAT-
geant Webb, severely. Capt. Newton,
while in the manly discharge of his
duties was taken prisoner and held
three hours, and after Il desperate
struggle with his captors, made his
escape. Reinforcements arrived and
the Yankee cavalry panic stricken fed.
The command then took a line Of
march to Nolin, where they burnt the
bridge at Bacon creek, tore up several
miles Of rail road, destroyed tho tele.
graph poles and wires, captured sew
oral wagons heavily loaded with gov
eminent stores, all of which was dcs.
troyed. We then moved on to ElizA.
BEETHOVEN, which place was defended by
eight hundred men, who upon being
asked to surrender, replied that United
States troops knew no surl ender. Gen.
Morgan then gave the womcn and
children timely notice to leave the
town-ordered Smiths, Palmcr's, Cor
bolts and Whites batteries to be placed
on an ominence commanding % fine
Wow of the town, and after Il few we'll
directed shots, tho white flag made its
appearance, and m unconditional sur.
render was agreed upon. AT this place
eight hundred prisoners were taken
and paroled, also q largo amount Of
stores guns and ammunition destroyed.
Tho command then marched to Null
drough's Hill, where two of the most
important trestle works on the road
wero destroyed-one being seven hum
dred feet in length, one hundred and
twenty-five feet high and the other five
hundred feet in length and ninety feet
high. These bridges were strongly
s~tockaded, and a stout resistance offer

in their midst with such telling effect,
they were soon compelled to stack their
arms.
At these two points four hundred
were taken prisoners and q fine lot of
Enfield rifles, ammunition stores &c.
Where we capture superior arms to ouls,
We hand ove. our guns and take those
captured.
The. burning of these magnificent
structures, whose strength seemed to
defy the flames, was a scene of gran
deur and beauty unsurpassed. AS the
burning element mounted up the high
frame work, lighting up 81 beautiful

seemed in one lurid blaze, while a
thousand hammers and sledgss could
be heard tearing up railroad iron, burn.

their beauty and strength, but yielded
at last under the burning element, and
fell from their dizzy heights with a
grace and beauty Of a thing of life.

already experimenting that road, and
hoped his diligence and experience
would warrant a continuance ofemploy
mcnt in that capacity, but suggested
that his visit over the road and his
careful inspection would preclude the
necessity OF another trip in six months.
Our line of march was continued up
the Rolling Fork, and in the direction
Of Bardstown. While effecting q cross.
ing at Rolling Fork our zeal was at.

,gagement ensued, in which Col. Duke,
whose name is already known in tho
preseLt war, was badly wounded by the
bursting of the cnemy's shell. He was,
however, taken from the field and care
fully conveyed in an ambulance to his
friends. His wound, it is feared, will
preclude the possibility of his taking
the field for several weeks.
We arrived at Bardstown, and after
spending one night marched down the
BardStown and Springield,,pike. Ar
irving at Springfield we a~scertainsd
that ut Lebanon, nine miles distant, the
enemy had concentrated ~ large force,
amounting to fifteen thousand, together
with II large body of cavalry, who were
posted at every point, and disputed our
path in ovely direction. They had
made their boasts thai Gen. Morgan
had made his last trip into Kentucky,
and indeed it appeared, in my humble
Judgment, to he the case, for it was the
darkest hour we had seen but through
the skill and GOODNESS OF our brave
leader, who planned and executed a
flank movement, We left Lobanon thirty
miles III the rear, marched seven miles

EV This gentleman condescends to
notice our criticism Of his sermon,
through the last Civilian, to the extent
Of stating the bold untruM that we had
BADLY misrepresented him. Does
MIR. RIALE mean TO assert that he did not
use the words we quoted as part of his
sermon? If he does, he charges with
falsehood respectable men and women Of
this community by the score. He talks
of us forming our opinions from the
slang of the popuace. - The men and
the women, Sir. who reported and dc.
nounced your sermon, are not by any
means more prone to indulge in slang
than some ministers Of the gospel whom
we wot of, and are, in our opinion, a
good deal more candid They are also
we think, quite as able to understand The
meaning OF terms, and to recognize the
connection in which they are used, as
ale the MISSIONARIES semitic clYIllZe the
barbarians Of the West. Mr.. .RrALH
knows well that we neither misrepresent,
ed his words or his feelings, and there
fore, unable TO defend them before ps.
triotic public, he sneaks behind the
flimsy protection that we were not oul
own reporter. That is very poor de-
fence, Mr.. RrALE. The persons who en-
dorsed and rewarded your sermon and
yourself, sir, prove most individually that
your discourse was open 10 all the OBJ
jections which have been made against
it, objections which you very eourteously
call the " slang of the populacs."
