THE NEWS.
"When a few mornings since our dis
patches stated that the Federal fleet were
firing on the wreck of the Georgians, the
obscurity of the intelligence was not re
lieved hy any previous information as to
the vessel in question. Ournews from the
Peat of war in South Carolina this morning
dears up the mystery. The steamer Geor
gians was an iron craft attempting tojrun
the blockade, the British owners intending
to sell her to the rebels. How the scheme
Jailed is fully explained.
Our news from the Gulf is full and in
teresting. The land expedition of Gen.
Banks was only intended to mask Farra
gut’s river movements, and our troops
then returned to Eaton Rouge, making
tathcr an expensive mask, one would
think, for a movement wholly to be under
taken by the river. If the presence or ab
sence of Gen. Banks' army had anything
to do with the “fire of hell" that rained on
our fleet, from the Port Hudson batteries,
tmmiiitary eyes, at least, cannot see it, and
the expedition might as well have been
masking Rosoerans. distant some hundreds
of miles, across the countiy. As for the
Sect itself, it was severely handled irre
spective of the mask. The dispatches arc
exceedingly circumstanced and uninterest
ing, and all is very clear but the land
movement, which looks some like that cf
the King of France who led the forty thou
sand.
The raid into Kentucky is eo nearly at
an end that the citizens are returning to
the localities vacated in the recent scare,
Bnd it is at last true that Kentucky is safe.
Her best defence is her own improved loy
alty, and Burnside's noble army can make
ter soil the base of operations which will
tftll largely on the fate of the rebellion. It
■will not be long before East Tennessee is
is in better hands than hold it now.
The news from Gen. Rosecrans indicates
lhat the enemy will wait for his initiative
movement The stories of suffering and
destitution within rebel lines are on the
increase and must have the basis of fact.
Ms CONTRABANDS.
There are victories, whose fields arc not
Smirked with the scarred surface that tells i
of the collision of armies, and whose cm- i
hlcms arc not battle flags, rent, caissons I
Shattered, and the small enginery of war '
Strewed broadcast. One of these victories i
was announced at Cairo yesterday. Read !
the humane, sensible, earnest speech of the
Adjutant General of the United States ;
army, a native of a slave State and grad
uate of West Point, made yesterday, in the
presence and heating of a large body of
cur troops. Compare it with what was, a
few months since, the outspoken and un
blushing avowal of a large share of our
officers, when the war began. Road it, and
thank God for the change.
Not a word in this speech of the Adju
tant General, concerning the “ d d nig
ger;” no strutting in the pride of race, no
talk of the “proud and hospitable South- 1
cm.” All this has passed away, and will I
come to he marvelled at, in the day when'
pome acute Agassiz of morals, chancing '
upon one detached fragment of this school'
of opinions, shall reconstruct to the incre- j
dulily of his age, the whole original speci
men of the extinct doughface Copperhead. 1
Adjutant Generul Thomas talks like a
Man who recognizes the work on hand,
with a desire to sec it accomplished. lie
looks at tise subject from the only stand
point, of the Union against its enemies, and
what follows is the most logical of conclu
ions. Anything that can harm the enemy,
not repugnant to the rules of warfare,
Must uc used, and so used as to do the :
Most harm. The blacks are tobensedand
not abused. It will be at their peril if this |
is done hereafter by any shoulder-strapped .
upstart, or veteran sodden in his preju- j
dices. They arc to he received, sent to ,
tomfortable camps, fed, clothed, armed.'
More than that, therehabiliitatlon of the ,
devastated South, is to auspicously begin
in their bands in the dawning of Free !
J-abor. They are to be set at work to till!
the lands adjoining their camps. These
comps will become cities of refuge for the \
whole South. The drain already begun i
on the Southeast, where Iligginson and ;
Montgomery’s banner, upborne by loyal
black hands, waves over Florida, will bo :
reproduced in the Korth and all along the |
border. The frcedmen of the South are '•
to be used. Their day has dawued. The |
Shackles that fell on the glad New Tear of
3863, has released them to the first duty of
defending the land of which they are the '
Uew born citizens. !
If there shall be derision and incredulity
as to whether the blacks will come out of
Ihcir house of bondage; as to whetherthey
will fight; and whether they will work
out the problem of Free Labor, this doubt
Hoes not exist in the South if there
be any token in the dismal ter
rors that have recently got fast
bold of the guilty Confederacy. It is left
to Northern Copperheads alone to jeer and
Scoff at what they do not understand,
cither in fact or principle. It is the primal,
substantial victory ofthe war, more telling
than the full of a score of rebel cities.
Suicide of a K. G. C.
The Lafayette, Indiana Joumnl says that
Solomon Hcnshaw, a wealthy citizen of Foun
tain county, In that State, put an end to his
existence on Friday last, in the following man
ner. He was in the town of Attica daring the
jdlcrnoon, and in conversation with several
of the citizens, stated that he belonged to a
certain secret political order, tbe first oath of
which he could conscientiously take, but the
second and third were treason; and, in con
sequence of having divulged some of the se
crets cf the order, he feared they would kill
him. He finally concluded to put an end to
Jii? existence, and, with a pistol, shot himself
through the brain on the street

retaining their present arms, they will no
doubt be abb* to make a strong fight if un
opportunity occurs; nor will they be likely
to be found waiting for an opportunity, but
rather seeking, we arc at last learning that
cavalry is really of some use, other than act

numbers of infantry arc being mounted to
act against the enemy’s large mounted force.

New* Tons, March 30.
The steamer McClellan from New Orleans,
22d, arrived this evening. She brings the malls,
Banks’ official dispptch, and $G3,25S in specie,
also Cols. Butler, Morton, and a few other
officers. Back New Orleans papers contain a
few additional items. A bottle containing a
dispatch from larnigut’s Secretary, dated
above Port Hudson 15th, has been picked up
staling all is well. He lost three marines
killed and two of the crew wounded. The
Albat roes lost one killed. The Monongahela,
with Gen. Banks and Staff, and Capt. Aldcn
onboard, took position below Port Hudson
on the lUth, and fired quite a number of her
1100 pounder shells into the rebel batteries.
A Capt. and some oO rebels have been cap
tured, the Capt. reports that Farragut lay five
miles above Port Hudson all day Sunday, and
that the Hartford received no damage. Sub
sequently the Hartford went up the river. A
detachment of our land forces had been up
directly opposite Port Hudson.
New York, March GO.—The steamer New
Brunswick, from Mew Orleans the 2Gd has
arrived here. *
• Ge °-Giver’s forces returned to the vialn
ity of Baton Rouge with ;; r *o bales of cotton,
about 3,500 hogsheads of sugar, and G.OOO
barrels of molasses. More could be re-dilv
obtained. Capt. Youngblood, Chief of the
rebel Gen. Gardner’s staff, and five members
of the rebel signal corps, were captured.
1 oungbloou says the rebels have a force in re
serve, which can readily be thrown iuto Port
Hudson or icksburg.
Dudlcj's brigade was encamped at the head
ol Front Island.
The Hanford and Albatross are the only
vessels that passed Port Hudson. The de
struction of the s'eamer Mississippiis con
firmed. Sixly-four of the crew are
forty-two of whom are prisoners: the rest
are believed to he killed. Among the pris
ons is Captain Fontaine, of the nuiriiies.
The Mew Orleans Kra of the 22d reports
the receipt of two thousand bales of cotton
the past week, which have been concealed for
months.
Mew Orleans adviecs state that on the ap

Orleans on the 2Gd. On the return of the

order, announcing that the entire object of
the expedition was accomplished, and that it
was a complete success. The movement is
understood to have been a mere diversion to
enable L.arragnCs fleet to pas? the batteries,
and not the reduction of Port Hudson. Ii is
said that information was received by Gen.
Grover, that the rebels were about to attack
Baton Rouge, which rendered a brig

o clock, a beautiful starlight night. The
Hartford, with the Albatross aior.-’side took
the lead, and successfully passed the batter
ies, hut with wind damage we are
not informed, as there had of coarse been no
communication with them since their passage
The Richmond and Genesee followed. The
Richmond was exposed to the fire of all the
batteries, and received shot through her steam
drum, and was obliged to tall back out of
range. Her loss was three men killed' and
seven wounded. I.ient. diaries Boyd Cum
mings was mortally wounded, A shot from
the batteries took off his left leg below the
knee. The shot passed through the smoke
slack of the gunboat. He died on the ITlh at
Aew Orleans. The Monongahela and Kinco
went up next In order. Capt. MeKinstry, of
the jlonongahela, was standing on the bridge,
when It was shot awav from under him and
he was severely injured. It is generally re
ported that in his case the amputation of ono
leg will be necessary. The entire loss of the
Monongahela was seven killed and one
wounded.
The Kinco was under severe fire. Her rig
ging was badly cut, her rudder post shot
away, a hawser was entangled about her pro
peller, and she became unmanagablc, aud was
obliged to drop back out of the lire.
The Monongahela also fell back. Theloss on
board atthetime.it any, was not reported.
The side-wheel gunboat Genesee was some
what damaged.
It appears the Mississippi was the last in
thclme ofthe fleet which attempted to pa«s
Port Hudson the night of the 14th. On going
np she was struck by three or four shots aud
only slightly damaged, hut when near the cen
ter of the range of the batteries the smoke
and steam ofthe vessels in advance, and the
batteries, so enveloped the ship that the pilot
lost his bearings and the frigate grounded on
the right bonk of the river. For forty minutes
she was exposed to a terrific fire from all the
battcjies. During this time she fired 250
rounds, but her gnns became nearly all dis
mounted, her port-holes on the starboard
Mde knocked into one, twenty-five or thirty
men killed, and four wounded, the ship rid
dled with shot, and there was no prospect of
her ever floating again.
Capt. Sweet gave orders for her abandon
ment. During all the time she was under fire
there was no particular excitement on board
The crew was told to load and fire at the bat
teries as rapidly us possible, and did so as
lorp as there was a gun to fire. After the or
der to abandon her, the boats were lowered,
tbe wounded men put in first, and tbe crew
filled the boats. Many jumped overboard,
expecting to swim ashore; some were picked
tip by boats and a few are supposed to be
diowned. Those who reached the levee were
taken off by the Etsex to the number of fifty
or sixty. When the crew were all off, Capt.
Sweet and Lieut. Derbv sprinkled turpentine
in the ward room, setting it on fire. The
Captain of the fore-hold fired her forward
and the Captain and Lleutcnautpulled for the
Essex*. The MUsUsippi was soon wrapped
m flames, and the fire presently reached her
inagi/inc, blowing her up with a tremendous
explosion.

Xcvv Regiments in Illinois.
[From the Salem Advertiser.]
We learn that the Secretary of War has is
sued an order to raise five new regiments in
this State, four infantry and one cavalry.
They arc to be enlisted for the term of three
years or during the war, to do_ guard duty
and protect the Suite from hostile invasion.
The regiment to be raised in this section of
the State will rendezvous at Galena, and i? to
be commanded by Col. B. G. Wheeler, for
merly of Kockford; the other officers of the
regiment have not yet been appointed. Cob
"Wheeler Is well known as a gentleman of
high character, and will make an excellent
officer.
The encampment will probably be located
at Camp Wasbbume. Persons ’enlisting In
this regiment will be entitled to the bounty
and other privileges of other three years
men, and will be exempt from tho conscrip
tion act. This will prove a favorite service,
and the regiments will doubtless be made up
in a very short time.
CoL Wheeler is expected here In a few days
when all necessary arrangements will bs
made.

[SpecialDispatch to the Chicago Tribune.]
MunruEEsßono, Tenn., March 30,15G3.
Reliable news from the rebel army, received
to-day, says that Polk’s corps advanced yes
terday to Guy’s Gap, elgh’cen miles south, on
the Shelbyville Pike. Hardee’s corps is at
Shfclbyville, The rebels there have been on
half rations for three weeks. Great dissatis
faction prevails among them. Everybody in
the ranks is aspiring to force a peace. The
rebel forage trains have been abandoned.
They only forage with single mules, In small
parlies. The country people within the rebel
lines are reduced to half rations. Families
ore each numbered, their stores inventoried,
and the excess over short allowance appro
priated for the use of the army. No beef has
been issued for the last week at Sbelbyville.
All the foregoing may be relied upon, as it
is confirmed by parlies unknown to each
other.
Eight regiments of Morgan’s command are
at Liberty. Morgan lies at the Armstrong
House, McMinnville, his fingers shot away,
and wounded through the shoulder.
The country people do not believe that the
rebels of this army purpose invading Ken
tucky. The cavalry in detachments will raid
the State for recruits, but no intintiy will ac*
company them.

[Special Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune.]
Madison*, March 30.15G3.
Both branches of the Legislature remained
in session till a late hour Saturday evening,
and ordered a large number of bills to a third
reading.
The Senate adopted, by a vote of twenty to
three, a joint resolution for an amendment to
the constitution, incorporating therein, if
the amendment is approved by the people,
the liberal homestead exemption law of this
State, exempting from forced sale on execu
tion, for any debt incurred prior tolSlO, land
used for agricultural purposes, not exceeding
forty acres with dwelling houses and appur
tenances attached, or, instead thereof, lots
not exceeding one quarter of an acre in any
recorded town plot, city or village, with
dwelling house, &c., thereon; and exempting
from sale, for debts contracted after the Ist of
January, ISGS, homesteads consisting of ag
ricultural lands, «&c., not exceeding ICO
acres and making this last exemption apply
to lands cvc%wltbin the limits of cities,
or villages, if so included without the owner’s
consent, and not Laid off into lots. It Is also
provided that such hqmestead may also be
exempt even after the removal from it of the
owner, and the exemption shall continue to
his widow and heirs.
In the Assembly there was quite a dcb.i’e
on the bill to provide for publishing the
second volume of Halls Report on the Geolo
gy of "VS iscousiu. Some very absurd things
were said by men who ought to have known
better, about scientific explorations’gcucrally,
and this one in particular. After all the ex
pense which the geological survey has beeu to
the Shite, It will be a matter of great regret
if tbe State shall throw away all the fruits of
the labor it has paid for, simply because of
tbe unwortbincss of some men in time past,
who have been connected with the survey.
The Assembly adjourned pending a motion
to reconsider.
The Senate this morning passed a joint
resolution proposing to amend the constitu
tion so as to increase the number of the Su
pmue Judges to five, appointed by the Gov
ernor with the consent of theSenatc.
The following bills among a large number
of others passed: Providing for publication
ofthe school code; appropriating $5,400 to
sufferers by Ozaukee anti-draft riot; the
farm mortgage bill, entitled concerning pro
ceedings in court in certain cases; to enable
counties to prescribe and limit compensation
to county treasurers; to authorize the Gov
ernor topurchase Stale flags; to repeal laws
for investigating committees; to organize
militia. This bill passed by 20 to 7, all the
nays were Democrats. One Democrat, Mit
chell, voted for it.
The bill for the relief of Carpenter & Hyer,
late Slate printers, was killed.
In the Assembly, this morning, a witty and
dogmatic report was made against the repeal
of the tax on dogs.
The Assembly refused to reconsider the re
jection ofthe bill to publish Hall’s geological
report.
Most of the session has been spent in the
consideration of the Militia bill. It was re
ported from the committee of the whole this
evening. Several trilling amendments were
adopted. Sanborne, leading the Demo
crats, then moved to strike out about forty
sections, and Dcustcr of the Snbote demand
ed a separate vote on each. The Assembly
refused to strike out, and a little after 10
o’clock ordered the bill to the third reading.
The Superintendent of public property, re
reporting not enough Supreme Court reports
for distribution to the’ Assembly, that body
made a virtue of necessity by reconsidering
the resolution calling for them. Lawyers,
however, were anxious to get them, and
offered to vote an equivalent to others. The
Senate, after some very amusing proceedings,
rescinded their resolution for Supreme Court
reports, and directed the Scrgcant-at-Arms to
return those that have been delivered. Some
Senators say perhaps the books will ho
returned, but they “can't sec it.”
The report from the Secretary states, onr
members’ orders for newspapers make some
rich developments, showing that some had
used the whole and others a large part of the
appropriation at bookstores where.- Wisconsin
paper# were not sold, some others paying old
debts.
A dcsti active fire took place here early
Sunday morning, consuming the Turavcrclu
IT:.)], Krause's Kovuregian Uotel and two or
'■ l,lallcr ‘ouildiDgs. Tho loss Is about
$15,000, nearly half covered by insurance.
There was n strong wind in such a direction
that it Is most unaccountable that much of
the business part ol the city was not con
soled.
Some seventy absentee soldiers left to ro-
Ijoin their regiments to-day.
Very strong resolutions have been received
from the 20th regiment, which fought so gal
lantly at Prairie Grove, and a part of the 2d
cavalry in the Southwest also denouncing the
Coppeiheads as too cowardly to fight for Jeff.
Davis, and as traitors, declaring that those
who complained so bitterly about the suspen
sion of the habeas corpus ought to be suspend
ed between heaven and earth with hemp, and
calling on loyal men at home to suppress
immediately the spirit of opposition to the
National Government, and blot out the exist
ence of the rebel sympathizers who are poi
soning the people’s minds, and urging the
National Executive to strike heavily and
rapidly at the rebellion that it may be speed
ily ciusbed.

our&tate rcpoit. to 27.3l6.fl0nbushels.
It will be seen that Wisconsin is the second
wheat producing State of the Union. lUinois alone
seems to grow more wheat thanwedo. Our wheat
crop for the year I8«l was 3.000,000 bushels greater
than that of Ohio, New York, and all the New
England States combined, for the year ISflO and
greater than the entire wheat crop of Canada for tho
same year. The increase of the wheat cron of this
btate. for the year 1856 to the year 1861—over 23-
ftltl.OiHMr.i!) equal to oiK-third of the increase in
all the States and Territories of the Union, from
the year JfSO to 1860 The increase of the whole of
the L mted States and Territories from the year
lbst) to the year 1800. was about 70 per cent, while
the increase percent, of the State of Wiscon«ln
during the same period is 373 per cent.
And then, our com crops increased fr0m37;».350
bushels, m 1840. to 7.565.2*) bushels in 1860 and
though not a com State yet in but four State*— Kan*
sa.-, ..lii r.eeota, Oregon and California—has tho
ratio of the increase of this crop been greater
since the year 1850 than in our own. Our oat crop
manifests a most flattering ratio of Increase.
Thomas Whitney, esq., to whom your Committee
are largely indebted for the ready adjustment of
these statistics, pnts down the State of Wisconsin
ns the fifth Slate in the Union for the production ol
oats, and our rye crop, mid otirbarleyaud ourpota
toe crops, are all about upon the same scale or rap
id increase: and our hay crop of the year
unmistakable evidence of as satisfactory an in
crease. There are but six States in the Union
whose hay crops exceed ourowu. And tUcna-aiu
our live stock, beef, cattle and swine, and our wool
and ram ton, are moving on In a similarly Increased
production: and our dairy—our butter. Why the
btnte of >\ isconsin made more butter in the year
1860 than tho great State of Virginia; 50 per cent
more than Massachusetts, even, and more than
double New Hampshire.
These facts give ns some conception of the ex
isting, as well as prospective. wants of the -Teat
agricultural interests of the State, and the North
weet. \\ bile Wisconsin has thus by a mo-t as
tonishingly rapid concentration of capital and
labor been developing her physical susceptibili
ties, our neighboring States have not been idle,
and w hen we come to consider the relative pro
portion of onr import to our transportation, and
extend the scale of both to the eight food produc
ing States of the great Northwest, it is not sur
prising that onr Industry and labor arc taxed with
burdensanddelayinits commercial relotions to
an extent which that of no other country could
probably survive.
It Is not at all surprising after this hasty view of
the commercial elements of onr State and the
Northwcft. seeking transportation to and from
tidewater, mainly by a single route, that there
should occur accumulations, jams and delays
about the locks upon the Erie canal.
And if jams have already occurred to the extent
of seventeen miles of canal boats, and arrivals
have been delayed five days behind time, what
conceptions can we entertain of erabarrasment
accumulating upon the seaboard transit of the
eight food producing States of tho North
west, when the remaining nine-tenths of
their arable lands are brought into pro
ductive cultivation. And If the charges upona
bushel of wheat bare already reached the sum of
fitly cents from the lake shore to New York, to
what extent must the furthest enhancement -o to
reach the point of total prohibition.
Impressed with the grave relation this history of
fact bears to tbematorlal welfare of oar citizens, in
really absorbing millions of their wealth, vour com
mittee are thrown back upon these rejections ♦
That there is no friendship in commerce: that it is
a satisfactory adjustmentjor conflicting interests,
and that when old relations become sng"e*tivo of
modifications that are doubtful, or troublesome to
reach, that row onesmay be sought with such avid
ity as profit and accumulation may suggest. Your
committee, therefore, sensible of the physical con
siderations favoring the cheap and early enlarge
ment .and const ruction of a su i table ronte of trans
portation to tide water, through Canada, and the
laudable readiness with which capital Is prone to
seek investment in profitable public enterprise in
that direction, are unanimous in their recommend
anon of the passage of the said Joint Resolution*,
after theadoptionot sundry amendments thereunto
attached.
The Committee cannot express too high an ex
pectation of favorable results, mid must mrta’go
the hope that nothin-; may stand in the war of the
utmost nnammlty in inaugurating a measure of
surh general interest to the' State.
All of which is most respectfully submitted.

_ Washington, March 30.—Admiral Dupont,
in a dispatch to the Navy Department, dated
the 21st, attaches much importance to the de
struction of the large English steamer Geor
giana, which he says was brought over by a
retired British officer, intended for the Con
federate navy, to be officered in Charleston.
On the night of the ISth, she attempted to
run into Charleston, through Moflafg Chan
nel. The alarm was given bya yacht attached
to the Wabash, which fired into her; aud the
steamer Wissahickou, pcrtelving her, opened
sucha heavy fire on her, that her commander
Laired the Wissahickon to-say that he surren
dered.
Upon this the Wissahldkon ceased firing,
but the Captain of the Georginna, taking ad
vantage of the cessation of our fire, pointed
his vessel towards the shore, which was quite
near, and succeeded in running h» r aground;
all escaped to the shore. The rebels brought
their guns to hear from the beach. Capt. Da
vis being of the opinion that the vessel could
not be saved, determined to destror her,
which he did, by setting her on fire.
A Hilton head letter to the Philadelphia
i*/r#s gives a description of the torpedo re
movers, invented by Ericsson, for which the
expedition against Charleston Ills been de
layed. The monitors to be engaged are: The
Passaic, Patapsco, Weehawken, Nahant, Cats

Ironsides. :
The report that the Montnuk was injured
by the explosion of a torpedo in the Ogecchee
River, is untrue—so is the report that Fort
Sumter is iron clad. •
New Yobk, March SO.—A letter from Hil

Enunciation of the Better Policy.
[Special Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune.]
No boats arrived from below. Adjutant
General L. Thomas, to-day, Ju company with
Gen. Bulord and his staff, witnessed a parade
of the Soth lowa, commanded by Col. HJU,
and afterwards reviewed the troops. The ex
hibition was creditable to the 35th. After
the parade, Gen. Thomas made a speech to tho
soldiers, in which he took occasion to reveal
a portion of his business in the Southwest.
He alluded to the matter of receiving colored
men into the lines, andrcprobatedtbe manner
in which some had been treated, instancing
cases where they had been sent back into
slavery. It was the dut}* he said, of everv
officer to receive mid treat kindly the slaves
who should come within the lines, and any
known to do otherwise he would himself, by
authority in him vested, discharge them from
the service. It was the policy of the Govern
ment to deprive the rebels of laboring men.
As fust as received, let them be organized into
companies. He was anlhorized to form into
regiments all suitable men and place white
officers over them,and put them to properusc
in quelling the rebellion.
Gen. Thomas will visit all the posts in Gen.
Grant’s command. The camp of rendezvous
for contrabands, now at this point, by order
of Gen. Unrlbut, will be soon removed to
Island No. 10, where every provision will be
made for their comfort, and profitable em
ployment furnished by Government in tilling
deserted larms.
Gen. Thomas, after reviewing the troops,
made the rounds of the forts, barracks, quar
ters, negro quarters, and hospitals, and in
spected each carefully. The hospital was re.
ported in excellent condition.
Cairo, March SO.—By order of Gen. Unrl
but, the contraband camps at Columbus and
Cairo, will be broken up and transferred to
Island No. 10, where they will be employed
in cultivating laud. Chaplain Baton, super

TEE INVASION OF KENTUCKY
AT AN END.
Matters at Lexington
*ST esterday.
Prospects, Plans, Aspects.
[Special Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune.]
Military matters in this Department are
being pushed forward •with great energy. Gen.
Gilmore commands in person. CoL Gilbert,
anticipating warm work in front, turned the
command of the post over to CoL Bird, of
the Ist Tennessee Regiment, who in turn sur
rendered to CoL Leasurc, of the 100 th Penn
sylvania, who is now Commandant of this
poet, and hurried to the front. The only,
danger now feared in Lexington is from wan
dering hands of Cluke's marauders, 150 of
whom were reported near Richmond. A few
of thorn were captured by Walker’s men
whilst crossing the Kentucky River on Satur
day. His command still hovers about Owens
viile. There is nothing from Nashville. The
grand invasion so extensively Intended, has
dwindled down to a cattle and.horse stealing
raid.
Pegram fled ontatthe approach of Gilmore
carrying off cattle, variously estimated, from
I,CCO to 3,000 head. He left Stanford.Friday
night, hotly pursued by Walford with, our
mounted force. On Sunday Walford was
twelve hours behind, our infantry following.
To-day at two, it is raportedjthat the rebels
were so closely pursued that they abandoned
all the cattle and trains, which, with 135 men,
were captured by Wolford’s advance. About
seventy-five paroUd men of the 104 th Ohio,
captured at Stanford, ISth Michigan, captured
at Camp Dick Robinson,, 44th Ohio, 45th
Ohio, and 10th : Kentucky cavalry, captured
on picket, came in yesterday.
The rumor that Morgan had crossed the
Cumberland and was marching on Stanford,
is not credited. The whereabouts of Marshall
is unknown. The prospect of a battle dimin
ishes, unless Gilmore overtakes Pcgram be
fore he reaches the Cumberland.
The war cry Is onward and Southward, and
Kentucky and Tennessee will shout fbr joy at
the coming relict Exertions are making by
the ladles and citizens to establish a Soldier 1 *
Home here on the Cincinnati plan. Col. QH
bcit has issued the following order:
Lexington, March 30th, 1863.
Union men of Kentucky arc expected to
contribute towards the defence of this State,
and we do not think it becomes them to en
deavor to have their negroes released from
the labor necessary for the defence of this
city. Neutrals and secession sympathizers
may think themselves fortunate,- il they them
selves are not forced to work in the trenches.
Men who will not defend their country, or
who sympathize with those who wish to des
troy It, have no rights which we are bound to
respect. By command of A. S. Gilbert,
Col. Commanding Post.
Col. Seagnr, has taken hold in a business
like way, that betokens orderand quiet.
[Special Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune.]
Gen. Burnside indicated his plans for his
campaign, in Kentucky and Tennessee, to-day,
to a delegation that called on him, but at his
special request, they are not to be made pub
lic at present. It is sufficient to say that, ho
will have a very large army in Kentucky,
which will be under old and tried Generals,
aud that their work is not all in Kentucky
nor will they remain idle many days. The
regiments that have already gone forward*
have been pushed well down into Southern
Kentucky, and we think we can safely say
that Eastern Tennessee will not long remain
under the yoke of the rebel confederacy.

Serious Emeute—Two Soldiers Shot,
[Special Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune.!
A serious difficulty occurred here to-day
between a few of the troops passing through
this city, and the provost guard. Some of
the former having become the worse from liq
uor, undertook to pass the guard, which were
stationed across High street and in an adjoin
ing alley for the purpose of preventing the
troops from becoming scattered over the city.
Failing in their attempt to force their way
through the alley, they proceeded to abuse
and insult the guard, which was borne until
brickbats, stones and clubs came into plav,
when several of the guard fired blank car
tridges, At this, a portion of the unruly
troops ran to the curs for their guns, while
the remainder continued throwing boulders,
bruising several of the guard. At this, sev
eral muskets containing ball cartridges were
fired on the mob, with fatid effect. Private
Quinlin, of the 51st Pennsylvania, was mor
tally wounded. He cannot survive long.
Samuel Co. I, 21st Massachusetts,
wa.s wounded in the body. Private Alexan
der, same regiment, was wounded in the leg.
The men who ran for the guns failed to get
them, and returned much disposed to con
tinue the fight.
About tins time the train was ready to leave
ami the troops made f..r the cars and left. The
provost guard arc justified in their acts. The
officers of the troops were not with their
men, though not far off, and are much cen
sured.

manded the finest army on the piling. He
reported that Gen. Hartsuff ia president.of

is a probability of his being assigned to other
duly. Major Thcopholis Gaines will be Judge
Advocate.
Gen. Dix’s officers report that preparations
arc making for the evacuation of Richmond,
whence large quantities of supplies arc being
sent away. They believe the display of force
in front of Hooker a mistake, and think the
rebels are concentrating everything against
Rosecraus.
Lexington, March 90.
Gen. Hooker does not credit these stories*
but it i* too muddy to test their correctness.
Washington, March SO.—The Shenandoah
Valley from Front Royal to Perryville, having
never yet been fully drained of its agricul
tural supplies, like other portions of the.
Slate, may account for the reported presence
in that section of Fitzhngh Lee, who was
reported to be lurking about Front Royal
with his sconts and.pickets, ranging down
among Bull Run Mountains. They recently
burred the temporary bridge with which our
forces had replaced the stone bridge over Bull
Run, destroyed in the first campaign. There
no doubt that rebel agents are collecting
grain and other supplies in Loudon and Far.-
qubar counties.
The roads in Virginia are fast drying up.

The enemy's pickets are visible for several
miles, but their troops display themselves
very little. The main body of the rebel army
lies back about fifteen miles from Fredericks
burg. A large force has recently been sent to,
and is now near Port Royal.
Yesterday, a Lieutenant and three Ser
geants, alifrom one company, came into our
lines. Hundreds of others would come but
for the difficulties in crossing the Rappahan
nock. Deserters report great suffering In the
rebel army, and mush disaffection among the
troops.
New York. 'March SO.—The New York
Tu.ua special from Washington says:
- Deserters returning to the* army arc rapidly

basis of careful returns, the army oi the Po
tomac is receiving acquisitions from this
source at the rate of two or three regiments a.

The ITcraUTs Washington special says:
Information received from the Army of ibo
Potomac shows that it Is In splendid physical

The outposts of our army in front of this
