A-On the Goth ult., il was officially
announced that only 80 men we're needed
to 6ll the demand upon Union county for
those $4,000 men for 3 months. Since
l30 have been sworn in, and 60 or 10
moro went down for independent service.
So that Union county has more than filled
her quota of organized volunteers. Let
other counties do likewise, and the State
will be safe.

pA-Among our refugees from secesh, il
q colored family of known good character
who cay they we're advised to leave, from
near Carlisle, by leading Democrat, and
were week on the journey, bringing
nothing but the clothes they had on, their
Bible, and few good books. A child Of
five years walked all tho wsy, and . boy
of thirteen carried . babe. Thew onlv
asked work, although almost famished,
and all eagerly embraced every chance to
labor. Another said that some one mis-
directed them, so that they went ten miles
out of their way, almost into the Rebels
hands, when q friend set them right. A
woman left her husband working in the
entreuchmeuts-and both agreed to die
rather than become slaves. All want TO
return as soon as they safely can.

AN ADvANcE.-The Army Of the Cum
berland, under Roseosans, lately made q
series Of important forward moves, driving
Bragg's army before them nearly 80
miles, whipping them in nearly every en-
counter. We now occupy Shelbyville,
and the Rebels rally around Tullahoma.
Thus far the Rebel force seems to be much
weakened.
The Rebels threaten 40 invasion Of
Kentucky, in considerable force.
