LEXINGTON, Ky Tuesday, JutY 10, 1854.
The reported invasion Of Kentucky is
Southern story, without word of truth.
The man who started it has been arrested,
and the Louisville Journal, that first clrculat-
ed 1t In print, has been notified that 1cpetl-
ton OF the offense viii lead to its suppress
sion. There are no rebels in the State except
guerilla bands.
Morgan Is at Abingdon, W., in no conai-
tion for fighting.
Gen. Bnrbrioge has Issued stringent orders
Of retaliation for guerilla outrages. He will
call upon rebel s5mpathlzers for all damage
done to property OF Union men, and for
every Union man killed by these bands be
will hang four rebel soldiers.
Brutus ]. Clay, since his return from Con-
gress, has been making foolish speeches and
telling foolish lies in this section. Among
the reet, he says the legislation Of the last
Congress tended to turn him out Of bis

An Important E1pedition-Gunbo
leave New Orleans.

81: LOUIS, Tuesday, July 19-The Union
publishes IN extract from private letter,
dated New Orleans 7tb, which says: Lust
night staff officer told me that Is 600 men
would start from this city md below on
ocean steamers to'day. They take fifteen
days rations and ammunition, Also, that
that there Is now large number OF additlon~
al gunboats in Lake Pontchartrain, and niue
more vessels have been added to the fleet OF
Mobile. Some think this expedition is for
the capture of Mobile, so as to command the
Alabama River and establish base Of supplies
tor Sherman ut Selma; while others believe
the troops to be destined for Fortress Non
roc.
This force may be designed to cooperate
with General SIosnm's expedition from
V4cksburg, which bus recently been rein,
forced, aud is aeain marching into the intezi:
or OF Mississippi.
Rebel accounts Of Slocum'a expedition to
jackson, Miss, claim that the Federal col
umn under General Elliott WIS attacked at
the junction Of the Port Hudson and Rodney
roads, on the 18th, and repulsed with great
slaughter, the road for miles being stFewn
With dead negroes, horses, guns, etc. This
doubtless refers 10 the expedition consisting
Of the Marine brigade and two regiments Of
negroes, which marched from Rodney on the
4lh, and were attacked BY five brtgades Of
rebel cavalry and one Of infantry, md after
fighting nearly all day, the rebels were drlfen
off and our troops returned to their beats.
Il lew days ago Major Generals Candy,
Banks and slck1es vent to the vicinity OF
Mobile, It Is supposed FOR a consultation with
Admiral Farragut, and also to Buperiuterd
certain military operations In that direction.
They are to return tomorrow. Gen. Sicklcs
will probably start for the North next week.

The result Is generally regarded as a salts

but no triumph. -
The Confederate loan, under the Persia's

Nothing was seen Of the Florida or any
other rebel cruiser. There Is considerable
mystery about the steamer Teddo, which left
Bordeaux On the ed Of June. noninally for
Amsterdam. Her arrival at the latter port Ia
not reported, and nothing certain 1s known
of her whereabouts. The Opinion Nationale
ASSERTS that she will soon reappear fully
armed and manned, with the Confederate
Tag dying. It Is stated that Semmes Is too
Ill to take command Of her.
The writer adds that the Yeddo is one OF
the vessels bought by Prussia-her reported

Adyices from Brackett's cavalry battalion,

Indians on the way. Several detachments

Col. Thomas column is On Swan Lake,
Near Owl River.
One hundred and fifty lodges Of friendly
Sioux were at the Fort. Gen. Sibley made a
treaty with them, and gained considerable
information relative to hostile Sioux. The
latter are reported as having plenty Of am
munition, which it is thought has been sup
piled to them By rebel etnlssaries Under the
guise Of Idaho emigrants. Buffalo were very
plenty in their country, and they consequent
]y have an abundance Of provisions. They
are reported as being still for war, and the
campaign against them win doubtless find
work to do.
The Missouri River was rising and boats
found no trouble in getting up.
Scouts report trains Of Idaho cmigrants
moving westward near the Missouri. They
will probably come together and travel in
