The following report has been received at the
headquarters of the army:
LOUISVILLE. April 1.-Hdjor General HnlIecl
General I'm Chief The following dispatch re-
ceiyed from General Glrnan, gives the details
OF his attack upon the enemy in central Ken
tucky:
SOMERSET, Ky, March 3l.-I attacked the
enemy yesterday in strong post of his own
selection, defended by six cannon, near this
town; fought him for five hours, wing him
from one position to another, and finally stormpd
his position, whipped him handsomely, and
drove him in confusion towards the river. His
loss is over 300 i'll killed, wounded and prison.
ers. The enemy outnumbered us two to one,
and were commanded by Pegram in person.
Night stopped pursuit, which will be resumed
in the morning. We captured two stands of
colors. Our loss in killed, wounded and mss
ing, will not exceed thirty.
Scotts famous rebel regiment was cut off
from the rest and scattered.
(Signed,) GILMAN, Brig. Gen.
i have this moment received this second dis
patch from General Gilman, dated this morn
ing from Slagals Ferry, on the Cumberland
river.
SLAGAL's FERRY, April II underrated
the enemy's force in my first report of yestrr-
days fight. Theyshaye over twenty-six hun
dred men, outnumbering us more than two to
one. During the night their troops recrossed
the Cumberland in three places. We have re-
taken bet wren tn rec and four hundred cattle
The entire rebel force has been driven out of
Central Kentucky, and much of their plunder
r'captnred Their reported force has been
greatly exaggerated, as well as the amount of
pIunder taken by them.
Pegram's loss will not fall short OF five
hundred men. Brig Gen GILMAN
The alacrity with which the troops were
concentrated, and the vigorous gallantry of
their attacks are highly com mcndable.
