THE GUERRILLA HUeHEs.-The Louis
vile Journal of Saturday says one of
the most successful and daring leaders of
the guerrilla bands which now infest the
Green River country is q man by the
name Of Hughes, formerly citissn of
0wensboro. He joined Morgan, when
the guerrilla chief was in the zenith of
his fame, and accompanied him in sever
al of his early Kentucky raids. He de-
serted Morgan more than a year ago,
and for many months has been actively
engaged in recruiting guerrilla band.
He is meeting with considerable snecess.
AL of the idle vagabonis of the country
rally to bis call, and his force is large
enough at this time to do much petty
mischief in the State. He is the chief
Of the numerous gangs scattered through
the Green River country, and operating
en- the border Of the Ohio river. He has
but little restraint over his men, and
therefore exercises no authority to pre-
vent their indiscriminste pillage of the
river and inland towna He 6ghts for
no principle - he simply wages war
for plunder. His success in the last few
weeks has been astonishing, and bis
