.Vurtliiiru VI-w or Affairs in Kentucky.
MAXRUVKRS f.-F OF.NKHALS BttELL AND BRAQC.
Dot i -viLLE, Ky , Sep. 15.—Affairs in Kentucky
ate decidedly of u toasaiion nature. They are
most emphatically mixed. Nobody knows any
thing for a certainty, and everybody assumes to
know eveiything exactly, but where Kirby Smith
is; where’John Morgan is; where Bragg is;
, 1,,.-re BuclUs; where any Os tbe military geniuses
figuring ia thia quarter of the globe are, may pos
sibly b-i known to a few to-day, but to-morrow
tbe entire situation is changed.
Buell and Brugg have been running a race from
Northern Alabaa a into Kentucky, and just now
they are preparing to contest the prize lor which
toey ran—She control of the State.
Buell left the Tennessee river, near Chattanoo
ga, cd the same time that Bragg left Chattanooga.
The former marched directly to Nashville, while
the latter made a detour to the famous Cumber
land Gap. Thence pushing along by rapid march
es, he crossed the Cumberland near Barksvilie,
thus escaping the barren regions of .Eastern Ken
tucky, and w as aga'n iu the center of the State so
much coveted by the Southern Confederacy. But
hit aim does not seem to have been merely to get
into Kentucky, but to form a junction with Kirby
Smith, and between them, get a lodgment on the
Ohio. ’ By pushing directly north from Barksvilie,
Uruirg would have found ilimsiif in the midst of a
country ntteriy devoid of sustenance either for
man oi beast, ils therefore stiii bore to tbe west
ward end north, evidently aiming for the rich and
productive regions about Bowling Green.
Bnt General Buell had his eyes oi the rebel

th, acuteness that a cat watches a motiac He
saw Bragg’s designs, and at onoa broke up camp
at Nashville and pushed out to Bowling Green
himself, arriving there in time to frustrate the in
tentions of tho rebels.
Finding himseii foiled in getting possession of
Bowling Green, tbe defenses of which were so
! a miliar to him, Bragg turned oft and made for
Glasgow. Buell also suw this movement, and
,-tai fed a division of ids army to take possession
of Glasgow. The rebels were moving up by
ce.l marches, the right reverend Brigadier
Gen., ml Bulk having the advance. The race at
this time became exciting, but the rebels rather
. ot the start of us, owing to our desire to avoid
bringing ot. a general engagement, and reached
Glasgow, causing the division of Buell’s army
that had started for that place to turn back.
Bragg reached Glasgow uu Thursday taut, and,by
the'next day, bad his entire army encamped on
lfcaver crut-v and about Ipe town.
Thus Iv’gso the second chapter „f this exciting
, atrmaign. It will be observed that, at about the
ID, y; . r•'•ached Glasgow, Kirby Smith began

i„‘tbe meantime, Bragg labors «; k- epßusit Iso

Seeing this. Bragg, on his arrival at Giasgovr, !
immediately btarfe*? cut on Uu axpedif’-in to de- j
r,Uov the rui road tot,nel ue»r ’he .Mammoth 1
Care. This place was defended by- a poriioc of I
Gun. Rousseau’s division. An origagement oc - j
curved at this point, resulting ia tne repulse of ;
Rousseau’s men. The rebels then burned the I
wood work ia the tunnel, and immediately retired, j
'ibis left the railroad temporarily impassible—i
but the daraaire could be speedily repaired.
Bragg then fitted, out a strong expedition to i
get pots salon of and destroy the railroad bridge I
across Green river ut ilunfordsville. This is a j
..pendid iron structure, on the trues plan, sis- j
usa bundled feet tu length. It 13 an important 1
structure, the veld? of which at the present time j
0; fully appreciated. A garrison ot two or three j

On Smorday eight, tbe 50ih Indiana, Colonel

;:o unti \\ il .e* Unfoitunately the train upon
•1:M rlr tbe, proceeded ran off tbe track six miles
north of Miinfoi'Jsvil'e. This occurred on Sun
\ .Uy morning ..1 an eariy boar. Hearing h s avy
n. ; :a the direction 01 MualordsviUe, Colonel
j Dunham ordered the train to be abandoned, aad
started bis regiment at a double quick s:ep for
t::? scene o! action.
The enemy appeared in lront of MnnfordsviUe ’
dont.g the night of Saturday, and, alter come
desultory skirmishing with our pickets, who were
fii-olly driven in, sect tn a flag of trace demand
ing a surrender. It was then ascertained that
the rebels were commanded by Brigadier-General
Duncan, and subsequent observation showed
them to be from seven to tec thousand strong,
with eight pieces of artillery. To the demaud for
a surrender, which was made at S o’clock yester
day morning, Colonel Wilder sent back a brief
message, which will stand as a good copy for tim
id and doubting officers, when they find them
selves in a similar predicament;
BrigadUr General Dunoan:
Sir—l was sent here to defend this place, not
to surrender it. If you want it, you must tight
i for it. " Jobs T. Winata,
Col. Commanding.
Ii such an answer, coder such c rcumstancee,
and the subsequent gallant conduct of Colonel
Wilder in defending the place, are not worth a
briiradier-general a commission, then heroism is
ns longer appreciated in this country, and repub
lics are truiy ungrateful.
Almost immediately upon the reception of this
note, the rebels began pouring shell into the Fed
eral encampment, and, as daylight crept on the
scene, it waa discovered that the rebeis were in
position on all sides and on both sides of the
r.rer. They wore lighting with the determina
tion us demons, and, though the five guns ai Col.
Wilder’s disposal were admirably and efficiently
worked, making horrid gaps in the enemy's ranks,
the gaps were quickly oksed up, and the killing
proceeded.
At this juncture Coi. Dunham came up on the
north side of the river, and, fighting hi* way
through the rebel lines, formed a junction with
the Federal forces occupying the hights 00 -hat
-ide cf the river. Ia this bold end KaUant move

We have no information of the enemy’s move

we derive from Northern sources- Copious ex
tracts from Northern papers of a very iate date
will be found in another part oi this paper.
Wounded soldiers, who arrivea here Ust eveoiag

we had already heard from several ether trust
worthy sources, that a heavy body ot Yaukae
cavalry, between five hundred and a thousand
strong, bad ou Raturduy taken possession of tfiat
place. It is said they put upon their paxoie sev

doubt is entertained here that ere this they have
extended iheir raid to the town of Warrenton.
Fur the past two days the public bus been dis
turbed by oft-repea'.od reports that lbs euemy,
having concentrated a large body of troops at

after diligent inquiry, failed to find any confirtna

I seems to consider Williamsburg a point oi impor

movemeant ol a hundred or two oi troops to in

Theft was formerly a splendid Rhine bridge at

fourths of a mile below the bridge, and this made
it necessary to pass down the mor bunk that dis

i am irank to say I wag in favor of the ruova
ment into Maryland. lam equally ready to ud
mit that, neder the circumstances, 1 now think it
was a mistake. This conviction gradually forced
itself upon my mind after X cams up with trie
army and sow the miserable condition in which it
was. A tilth of the troops are barefooted ; ball'of
them aie io rags, and tho whole of them, insuffi
ciently supplied with food. Men iu this condition
cannot be relied on to the same extent ns wbou
they are properly clothed ami subsisied. Tim
best soldiers, under such v. retire .-Pa c«s, will
struggle both on the march and in batlla. Since
we crossei into Maryland, and even before, they
frequently bad to march aii day, arid far into tbu
night for three or tour days together, without food
of any kind, except such apples uni green core
as they could obtain along the way. Our supply
of food was limited at beyt, und the base of our
operations so distant, the intervening country .o
barren by reason of the spoliation perpetrated by
Pope and his myrmidons, and our transportation
so limited, that it is quite impossible to subsist
the arm; xs it should be. Tbe difficulty of pass
ing Confederate money in Maryland was another
frui ful source of trouble.
The political effect upon Maryland if our retro
gade movement must be highly injurious. We
shall doubtless lose ground among the people, anti
may be we shall have to make up our minds to
lose the State it.s-if. It should bo the direst ne
cessity, however, that would compel us lo aban
don Maryland. The waters of the Chesapeake
are indispensable to the Confederate States, as a
naval power, aa well as for our security and da

Very few of the enemy’s shells exploded, and
this probably accounts lor tho few casualties.

The Battle ot lubn.
W* iliis morning conversed with Dr. Luke f.
Blackburn, aid ol Gen. Price who was with him
at I aka. „
Om. Piice was thrice ordered by Gen. Bragg
to move his arrov across the Tennessee riv
er nt Easlport or laka. Ou Thursday morning,
the lltii, he mo ved his army ot leas than 14.000
men from Gtiatoivn toward* fuka. By rapid and
for 1 rived 1 ''.‘.m throe
Lika ot daylight Sunday morning. There hi was
informed by c. courier f»cm iron* Annstrosg > s
camnn-’.id, whose cavalry bad attacked the enemy
* n J.-iat tSntrirduy, that reinforcements were being
eent from Burnsville. The men being much ia
tigfced were ordered to rent and sleep n line for
thirty minutes
Gca. Price knowing that C’npt. Saunders with
his company of ISO men had possession of tho
road between luka and Burnsvilie, having iot
pli .it conlideuca in that officer, he bed no fears of
reinforcements fro:a Corinth until he should fctve
captured the force at BurnßviUe aud Lika. The
column was put in motion : on reaching tbs sdg®
of town he was tc hear that the ens
mv, 2,000 strong, with 2,000 stolen negroes, and
a large train had fied at one o’clock the r igid pre
vious. He took possession of the place. Thera
was a q’antity of cotton and stores The enemy
eamo up again on Monday, in era all force but
soon retreated.
Col. Wirt Adame and Slemnaens’s cavalry cap
tured and burnt a train of cars five miles below
luka.
There wwa no further demonstration until Fri
day morning, when Col. O-d sunt in a Sag de
manding the unconditional surrender of Gun
Price’s army, stating that the army of Gen. Lee
had been destroyed iu Virginia; Lmgstrest and
Hill, with their entire divisions, captured; that
the war was now virtually closed, and as he wish
sd to prevent tbe useless shedding of blood, he
demanded an unconditional surrender, that he
(Gen. Priceivras completely rurrounded by rb
overwhelming force, and could not escape
Gen. Price replied, that whenever the indepen
dence of the Southern Confereracy was ackr.cvr
iadgt J, her rights respected, ar.d the Vandal
hordes of the North were driven firm her so:!,
that then, and then only, would he and his army
bo willing and ready to lay down their arms.
Gcc. Price,'in obid'.cnoeHo orders from Gca. tan
Horn, and being almost destitute of forage, un
able to cross the Tennessee river, prevented from
pf-ising down towards Corinth by the unfavorable
condition of the country, the enemy having po3 :
session of tbe western bunk cf Yellow Creek, ana
being reinforced by 20,000 men, deist mined tc
,611 back to Baldwyn, and there unite with Gen.
Van Dorn. ... . . _ , -
The order to fail bs.ck wa3 issued cu 1 : .day
morning at nice o’clock, when no one dreamed of
an attack. On Friday srening, at 2 o’clock, the
enemy in line of battle approached our outpost.
Heavy skirmishing ensued. At 3 o’olr ck General
Price ordered up the Fourth Brigade. When they
reached their position they found the enemy in
line ot baH!a holding a good position on a lull.—
Tbe order was given to charge them, which charge
drove the enemy back two hundred yards Into a
ditch formed by the road from Fulton to Lastport,
1 aud directly under their cannon which were uusk-
I ed. Gen. Price bad now ranohed the field Ths
i firing hml almost ceased, Gen. Hebert and CM.
1 Martin, commanding Brigade, with Whitfield’s
■ Legion, being all the fotce in hue.
Gen. Price ordered up Gen. Gregg's and Green's
| brigades, to form on the left, charge the enemy
; and press them down on Gea. Murray’s division,
i lie being on tho right. Before tbe arrival of their
1 brigades, Geneioi Price asceriaioed that the o.ie
: my were lying on the road, sLoltered troia our ar
i tillerv. They were firing but one gun, end that
ou onr right.
The gillant and lamented Gen. D:Ulc suggested
that us they seemed to have hot one gun in poai-
Luon if tho line would move forward, the battle
could soon be won. The order was given. Our
rnen soon emerged from under tbe brush in line.
They were then met by aa terrifio a fire from
masked batteries, and concealed musketry, «a
was eyer concentrat and. But the invincible fid
Louisiana, fid Texas, ’ fifth Alabama, stood
like statuary When the order to charge was giv
en, they rushed head ion/, through this sheet of fire
and lead, and drove las enemy from their posi
tion and guns : Whitfield’s legion pressing on the
right, the enemy would resist and fall back, until
they were driven calf a mile, losing nine guns.
It wai now dark, Generals Green ana Gregg
arrived, hat too late to enter the fight.
One hour cf day light, and the eotirs Yeakee
di vision would have been captured. We held the
field sii night, brought in the wounded, and evac
uated the place, in accordance with the order is
sued in the morning.
Our loss, in killed, wounded, and missing, 431.
I That of the onerry o ver 800 Gen. Price brought
; off bis entire tram end captured stores General
i Murray covered the retreat.
General Little fell whiigt conversing with Gau
