FROM CAPT. KINGS COMPANY.


CovINGToN. Ky, Sept. oh, 1868.
FRIEND CONVERSE :--Wo hnvo taken the
presumption to trouble you with these few
loose scribblngs, thinking that word or
two from the I'd Regiment of Ohio volun-
teer Heavy Artillery, might not prove un.
acceptable to many Of tho readers of your
paper, as Co. G., Capt. o. o. King, was
mostly raised in Geauga and adjoining
counties. Though, as yet, we eau claim no
particular distinction on account of deeds
performed or vaor won, yet ESQ they say
We present ns fine an appearance at our
"dress parades' as any regiment ever here ;
and We doubt not tho aspect would be rath.
or sickening to Rebel boholder. We arc
now quite comfortably quartered in "Cov-
ington Barracks" about two miles south.
east o! tho city of Coyington, KY, which
place wo presume is already familiar to the
readers of the Democrat, as many an Ohio
regiment has boon quartered here before
US.
This Regiment has been ordered hero for
organization only. and, as fast as tho com
pan'es are mustered and organized, they
arc to DO sent to their respective garrisons
Co. B Capt. Rothrock, and Co. Q, Capt.
Whiting, went to Bowling Green, KY, las
week, aud whero our company, or any OF
the others, will be stationed, is, as yet, only
matter OF conjecture among the boys
But they all hope to leave horo soon, and
probably will. as our company will undoubt
edly 90 mustered in and payod off this week
which will be very agreeable to the boys, II.
they have no; received cont of pay vet
and tho first have been enlisted nearly thre,
months.

How Ben. Butler Answers Copperheads

General Butler, in speech he made
while Stopping over night in New Hamp.
shire on his way to the White Mountains,
was now and then interrupted by some
Frank Pierce Copperheads. He said !:
" In Two years we have seen three, quar-
ters of II million Of men raised" Before
this sentence was completed, one of those
Pierce Democrats asked in a sneerng air,
Where are they now % "Some OF
them" replied General Butler, "lie sleep
ing beneath the sod and others are still
fighting the battles OF their country, while
you remain here at home aiding the ause
of traitors" In another portion OF his
speech, Gen. Butler said (: "WiE you vol.
uuteer ?" voice replied, "No." "You
voted for Breckenridge" SAID voice to
General Butler, alluding to the last Dem
ocratc National Convention. eyes"
said Butler land il were as cowardIy
as you | might be tempted to deny it,
He then went on to show 10 these New
Hampshire parlsans that one might very
properly vote for a man under certain
circumstances and oppose that man un.
der certain other circumstances. When
Judas lscariot was u true follower of his
Master, he was no doubt worthy exam,
pie TO be followed {; but he was not aware
that man 10 preserve his consistency
must continue TO follow Judas after he
had betrayed his Lord.

The evidence OF this fact the Gazette wri-
ter declares to DO iudisputable.

is neither wise nor just to compromise with
an evil so gigantic. He avowed himself
unequiyocally for the removal Of slavery

would follow temporarily, but these would
be more than compensated by the grand
impulse given to all our interests by the
substitution Of free for slave labor. II,

their lips on this question, and speak anc

to hurt the rebels. Gen. Blunt is famous
for Just that sort of thing He has done
more execution and with fewer men and

matter what the disparity of forces, no cleans

The great campaign Of war is over. We
are in full possession Of + ,st Tennessee
A great bloodess victory; a campaign skill.
fnlly planned and oncrge,ically executed.
Such wore tho rapidity of our movements
that the rebels were taken unawares. aud
fled before us without destroying any prop.
orty. At Loudon thoy attempted to hold
the bridge, but the impetuosity of tho I'd
Tennessee regiment broke thcm to frag-
ments.
Three steamboats,, throe locomotives, and
a large number of cars were captured thore.
The whole march of our army was por-
feet ovation, and our entry into Knoxville is
al event long to be remembered
Thousands of people of every ago, sex,
color, and condition lined tho way, with
shouts and tears, intermingled with martial
music. Joy reigned supreme.
Burnside addressed the soldiers and poo
pie and assured thom of protection. and
that while justice should he dealt. revenge
was no part or policy of the Government.
General Carter also spoke in touching terms
of their suffering aud announced its termi.
nation. Colonel Saunders was called out
amid shouts of welcome.
Colonel Gbort was appointed Military
Governor and General Carter Provost Mar
shal General of East Tcnuesseee.
second dispatch says our right wing is
within easy reach of Rosecrans' left.
The rebels regarded our expedition as a
raid until tho last moment.
The march of two hundred and fifty miles
was u vety hard one, bat made in good or.
der. The trains arc all up in good shape
