-. An authoritative denial 10 made
that the United States will send a min.
lister to Macmillan. Our government
will recognize only the Republic, while
any struggle is going on.
The Uuioo prisoners lately sent to 10
and the rebel prisoners lately returned
to Richmond are not exchanged but pa
roiej.
A Baltimore correspondent Of the
World predicts that the rebels will
abandon the defensive and assume the
invasive policy this spring. The inva-
sion will be made in two columns, opl
under Lee, into Pennsylvania, and the
other strike for Cincinnati.
A Washington correspondent Of same
paper states that Forests present raid
was planned last month, and that sup
plies, clothing &c, from New York and
Cincinnati were shipped to Paducah, fol
the express purpose of being captured
by Forrest in order to clothe bis men.
