con. 81 -
a New YORK, Jan. 6.-!The Times has q
special dated Huntsville, Ala, which says
that the Tennessee campaign has ended.
The last of Hoods army crossed the Ten
nessee river on the Doth, with eight pieces
of artillery and about $4,000 men. He
lefl Macon with $4,000, was reinforced by
5000, and had ITO pieces of artillery. Al
ter the battle of Nashville, both armies
Aoundered in mud for ten days. Hood
and the remnant of his infantry crawled
off at night, his cavalry stubbornly resist
ing the pursuit during the day. 1t is be-
lieved he has buried or thrown into the
river at least 80 guns. he abandoned
large numbers of wagons and am6ulances'
Our official list of prisoners numbers nine
thousand seven hundred, not including
five hundred captured from Roddy, on
the 9th. Over nine hundred prisoners
have also been reported.
1t is said Hood is going to Meridian
Miss, to attempt reorganization. The
chase in force has been abandoned, al
though Stedman is across the river with
others, to harrass him and capture as
much as possible. A new campaign is
already projected and the corps of Wood,
Smith and Scho6eld are already moving.

New YORK, Jan. THE Tribune's
Norfolk correspondent says of the VIII
mington expedition The transports were
off Fort Fisher three days before the war
ships arrived, in good weather, and the
enemy were known to be In full force.
Their coal was exhausted, and they had
to return to Beaufort, leaving again as
soon as possible, and that without wait
ing for their return, as agreed, Porter eS-
ploded the powder boat and opened fire.
The troops were to land when the powder
boat exploded, and take advantage Of the
shock produced, and when the troops did
land, they, it seems, found the fort unin-
jured, and an assaulting party would meet
more bloody repulse than at Fort Wag-
ner. He then advised withdrawal, to
which Butler consented.
Resolutions to Abolish SIavery-Gov.
Bramlette's Message.
CINCINNATI, Jan. 7.-Resolutions were
introduced in both houses of the kentucky
Legislature yesterday, declaring for the
immediate abolition of slavery.
Gov. Bramlette, in message, recon-
mends gradual emancipation and the ulti-
mate removal of slaves. He rejoices over
and thanks Sherman and Thomas for their
victories; denounces the arrest of Colonel
Wolford and Lieutenant-G overnor Jacobs;
says his object in attempting to regulate
the enlistment of slaves was not to save
the institution, but the people of Ken
lucky from an unnecessary burden in its
accomplishment. Kentucky has provided
nearly seventy thousand soldiers for the
United States army.
European News. ...
New YORK, Jan. 5.-The London
Times has an editorial on letter of Sec
rotary Seward in reply to Lord Wharn-
cliffs application to aid rebel prisoners.
1t says the animus displayed is no slight
testimony to the course taken by her Ma.
jesty's government in its dealings with the
Union. He cannot conceal that he is
driven to makethe most Of the opportunity
offered by the people who are irresponsi-
Die, as representatives of the British ma
ton. His letter indicates that he is pre-
pared to make the most of the least Off
cial slip that might be made on the part
of the British Cabinet or any of its repre-
sentatives. Seward must be hard pressed
when he thinks it necessary to express so
much Indignation on so trihing an affair.
The Times questions the wisdom or good
sense of Lord Wharnclfe's offer, but it
reviles Stewards charges against the Brit
ish people, and concludes by saying that
he knows that in every one of the ques-
tons raised by the existing war we are
only moving in lines already laid down
for US by statesmen, conscience and pub.
lie opinion in the United States. What
ever abuse Seward chooses to lavish on
us simply recoils on the heads OF his own
people.
A letter published in the city article Of
the Times, on trading regulations with the
South, contends that they are calculated
to impede rather than promote traffic. He
asserts that the only available channel for
getting cotton is through the blockade,
ard that the difficulties Of this trade have
been increased, not by the great efficiency
of the blockade, but by the regulations of
the Confederate Government, tending to
give itself a monopoly of The profits OF
blockade running.
The Spanish Cortez opened on the 22d
of December. The Queens speech gives
hope of a prompt solution OF the PERU
Wan question, but is silent on the subject
of San Domingo. She says Spain has no
ambitious projects in South American re-
publics. AS regards Mexico, the speech
saws the official communication of Maxi
milian's accession to the throne of Mexico
is the commencement of new era in the
political relations between Spain and
Mexico, so unfortunately interrupted.
Another passage in the speech is as fol-
lows: ~ am bound to state that the
general condition of the monarchy, con-
sidered in all its extent, is not very salts
factory. To remedy this, shall lay be-
fore you bill of great Importance" This
is supposed to refer to San Domingo.
