KaNFUCKV AND KENTUCktANs.
The telegraph informs Us that The kentuek-
ians in ibe FEDERAL srny ia Tennessee have, to
: msa. refused TO Te-suIiss in LTECOLE's army
Of s~ufjuea,ion. Really, it does seem to rs thai
Il ( high time The 'sober second theugat'
should be doing It's work with thsse duPed and
deluded people. They snsefed the service Of
their master under the rsllying cry Of "ths Con
siituiicn as & Is aud ths Unien IS it wa" bat
thsy must long Stree have discovered that this
was . cheat and a delusion. So far from dome
BATHS tor these ideas, they have probably dis
covered that they were only warning for the
propagation and maintenance Of the worst and
mssnest principles Of political and religions sb-
oHii1nism, and tha only monsment they have
thus far erected to PsTTelasts their pEowsSs IN
aruas, is the overthrow Of the liberties ard sub
jugaion Of the people Of their sister State o.
Tsnnessee and they are beginning to discover
that should they persist in the course they 'oTi
giuaIly adopted, = similar fate awaits beth them
and lhsH own State.
C5mpsllsd, as they are, 70 fight side By side
with ihfiT own negroes in the devastation OF
Ssu,hsTn homes, and n The murder of their
Sss4u ssesaTen, they cannot, if they be men,
escape tie bitter TspsOvings Of ; guilty con
seieuss, and it is Let singular that they should
refuse l0nEsT 10 Do iks diabOlicsl work required
Of them By lhsr Yankee masters.
Bat recent dev5I Pmsnts show that there IL
lie IN the old land yet" and It Is mora than
rssbabls ihal LKcoLN will be forced to faish
up lis usT Of corqasst and subjagation sithou
further assisisDce from Kentucky and Ksntuek
slns. The day that our army shall re that
Safe viii be 8 day Of jablc ard ezTnes
thsnkssviag io,her people, and il is nors thar
pIo5abls ihat before the sumner closes, : large
proportion Of these now doing servics in th,
ranks Of the Yankees, will be found side BY side
With iksir brethren in cur army, uoBly doing
6zsis Ior right and justice, liberty and inde
peBdescs. Our skies are evidently bighteuirs

The Coiumbus Daily Times Is highly sucour
sgedattle prospects Of the spring campaign
Tss opinion is expressed that there is legs dis
petty between the forces of the belliserents
Ecw han there ever has been before, and the
dhsulnes o. invAsion certainly become CREATE
- is lines are extended. Three handree
thoussnd Csnfsdsrsies ought to be a better
match fI Eve hundred thousand Yankees nov
Kan when the war was upen the outer limifs
Of on eoanty, and yet, instead of having to
oppose I've huDdTed thousand with throo hun
dred Thousand. We meet he enemy with = force
almos,if not quite equal to heir own.
The apprehension that LIScoLE viii be able
70 swell BIS army to its former proportion, and
e7srShslm as with superior numbers, is with
S0t foundation. In cur opinion, bis army Is
g large now as i ever win be. Indeed. it viii
ony be b the most lavish expenditure Of
moneY that The Yankee army can be retained
A. its present strength, We have deCss.sd
lArger armies thai We lhAn ever have to Rgh

victory hsrs:oiors. viii ensure success il ar
