THE INVASION OF KENTUCKY.

The reports that have already reached vcu.
regarding the contemplated invasion of Ken
lucky by the rebels during this spring, are not
premature. Last week Gen. Roseersns re-
ceived a dispatch that four hundred rebels,
mounted and well armed, had lust crossed the
Cumberland at R0wsns, and that much larger
force was on the south bank waiting to cross
RoWena is IN Rassell county, Kentucky, in the
Cumberland Gap region Almost Himultane-
ously with the reception of this information the
Atlanta S0uthsTR Confederacv declsred chat
"Cluke, with the %, Sd, aud 7th Kentucky cav
alrys regiments, had penetrated Kentuoky
sweeping all opposition before him" HIS
march through the State, adds the same Jour
nal, ''was perfect ovation and his force has
been doubled by recruits who have aocked to
him." We now have a confirmation of this re.
port and the intelligence Of Cluke's progress AS
far as Mount Sterling, and bv the tins this let
ter shall have been published, the depreda-
tions Of this gang win have become common
talk. And this is not all. Cluke is merely
the apGHt courier Of larger and much more
formidable forcs which will soon invade Ken

who has just made his way through our lines.

bodies Of rebels were Concentrating there for a
march northwsTd through Cumberland gap
The E1s1ority Of tbsse foFcas e7nsist41 of old
troops, and some Of them we're from Richmond
But, aside from these repsris, it Is impossible
now TO resist the conviction that Ksntucky is
threatened with foTmi liable invasion, not By
guerilla parties but by well organised and
concentrated army The effect Of this forth
coming invasion will be seriously felt by the
army of the Cumberland and il is impossible
to enumerate all the disastrous consequences

can be detracted from this army without endsn-

TRE EVACUATION THRoRIEs

There are and have bseu several hypothsses
tossing about among speculative minds a. to
the probabilities Of the rebels evacaatjng Vieks-
burg Such notions may now bs fsirly dis
missed. We have heard reports that they were
evacuating, but they are not substantial. Vicks-
burg is strong. We have reason to say so. It
still self fsuslaining, for thus far We have seen
10 danger to the line of eommu lication which
connects it With Jackson and all other points Of
fbs Confedsracy, T-xaI. perhaps, excepted
Why them evseuate A better place eouId
hardly be found TO fight against odds What
then, is 10 be gained by evacuation
The enemy may evacuats for two reasOns-to
invade Kentucky, or to seiza the Mississippi
firmly at some point above-ssY Memphis or
Columbus But in giving up Vcksburg they
quit their hold upon the lower river; it would be
voluntary severance Of the territory which is
above ali, rich sud loyal to thsua viii they do
it for contingent success in K,ntuckyl 9 We
venture 70 suggest that ths leaders know more
Of military policy than this.
The line Of the rivers aforesaid must be bar
rier7 to their progress. Kentucky no longer af-
fords that promise which it once did. There
will be no evacuation of Yieksbure until the
resources of the citadel are cut off or at least,
so far endangered as to leeYs no reasonable
doubt Of their fate.

Since the third memorable attack upon Vicks-
burg in which we had two thousand men placed
AOrs az combat without a single advantageous
result the operations against it have been the
strategical, that is to say maneU7eTing for the
advantages. There exists no doubt but that
Vicksburg might have been captured BY direct
assault Rt a time previous to January with com
psratively small loss. Gen Williams perhaps
might have taken it in june or July last, had
not the unfortunate notion been obtained Of cir
commenting the enemy by the spade. Had
Gen. Bufrd been permitted TO accompany Com.
Davis instead of being detected BY Hslleck at
Gorinih, it is not improbable that his co-opera-
ton might have been OF great value. Ever since
then the policy of direct attack has been aban-
doned with the single unfortunate exception an
der Gen. Sherman. Whether OF no the best was
done then, or who is responsible for the failure
are questions upon which the public mind has
long been made up.
General Grant has varied fron his uniformly
successful policy in this instance; it remains to
be seen whether wisely OF not With every
days delay the place has been growing stronger
against assault, nor are we much nearer the con
summation Of that flank movement by which it
is hoped 70 cut them off We are still al work
trying TO get round them, bus over as we spread
or lines 70 overlap then,'w find them still
confronting Us. In truth Vicksburg ITSELF and
The confguratiOn Of the country, are admirably
fitted for these purposes. We attempted to
pierce tbs line protecting the flank, which is
identical with the east bank Of the YazoO, and
before we had reached that stream, we we're
checked by Fort Pemberion Another attempt
is now being made from which different results
are expectsd

FnTnRE PROsPECTs.

Our information Of the eentrivances and de-
fenses on the YszOo, including rams, guuboats,
rats, notifications, torpeaoes, armies, etc. are
so vague, that We can predict nothing Of the
suecess Of the expedition BY the wsy OF the Sun
fowel. The rebels mere say that the most
formidable works are being constructed at Yazos
CITY. and that boats, toroedoes and RATS are
being bnilt below Fort Pemberton aud above
Hsines' bluff in either case under the guns Of
the works. The latest probable information
states that three gunhoats (not stated of what
caliber) and a small feet of transports, have as
csnded Steele's bayou, which emplies into the
Mississippi st island No. LOO aud also into the
Sunhower q few miles above the Alligator
channels and that although not in the Sun
flower, the exploration is SO far developed IS %
leave no doubt Of its success. When our forces
once enter, it will be for them 70 choose whether
they viii turn down to blockade and lombard
