From Yesterday a One O’clock Edition.
Kcealptz.— The reception of the Sun, when
cr,Ured by mail, will be our receipt for the money;
tt]->eciaUy to those subscribing for a lets time than
a year.
When subscribers receive the paper with this para
graph marked, they will understand it as informing
them that their subscription it about te empire, and
that the paper will certainly be stopped unless they
make a remittance.
Mr. N. O. J. Staley, of Marianna, Fla., ia au
thorised to receive and receipt for subscrip
tions to the Daily and Weekly Sun in Jackson
and adjoining counties, in that State.
The News from Kentucky.
Richmond, Kentucky, the scene of
Gen. Smith’s late brilliant victory, is due
north of Knoxville, Tenn., about 130
miles, and about midway between the
latter point and Cincinnati, Ohio. It is
the county site of Madison county, and
is only about 25 miles from Lexington.
It is only aboutdO miles from Frankfort,
and not exceeding 75 or 80 miles from
Louisville. It is therefore nearly in the
centre of Eastern Kentucky and in the
midst of a productive country.
We have no definite information rela
tive to the whereabouts of Humphrey
Marshall. Our latest advices from his
division represented him aB being in tho
vicinity of Abingdon, Va. This was
over throe weeks since, aud ho was then
preparing for an immediate move into
Kentucky. If, therefore, he has not
formed a junction with Gon. Smith al
ready, ho will probably do so in time to
reach an other important destination.
This victory will inaugurate a revolu
tion in Kentucky, or rather it wiil facil
itate tho one already inaugurated. Gen.
Bragg will doubtless turn up in the right
place before many days, and then will
Lincoln’s ‘‘Military Governor” in Ten
nessee find it necessary to “change his
base” from the Cumberland to the Ohio.
About the only serious objection to oil
this is, that it will be very apt to raise
a piteous howl among some of our pa
triotic speculators, by breaking the
flour and bacon monopolies.
Gen. Toowliii
Late advices from Gen. Longstrcet’s
division, represent Brigadier General
Toombs as being under arrest at Gor
donsville for alleged usurpation of mili
tary authority and disobedience of or
ders. The facts as represented to us
appear to be these: On tho 18th ultimo
Gen. Toombs’ brigade had advanced near
the Ilapidan river, where he was ordered
by Gen. Longstreet to throw forward one
of his regiments on picket duty. The
next day he received orders from Gon.
Longstreet to oook up all his rations and
be ready for a forward movement upon a
moment’s warning. About tho same time
Gen. Toombs learned that an entire bri
gade of Gen. A. F. Hill had been placed
in front of hts picket regiment, and be
tween them and the point they wero to
guard. Toombs then ordered his regi
ment back to prepare their rations and
get in readiness for the expected march.
Soon the orders came to advance, and
soon thereafter an order directing the
arrest of Gen. Toombs for usurpation
and disobedience above stated. Colonel
Benning is now in command of tho bri
gade, while Gen. Toombs, with his staff,
is at Gordonsville awaiting his trial by
court-martial. It is thought by parties
conversant with the difficulty that tho
arrest grew out of some misunderstand
ing as to position, and that Gen. Toombs
will be honorably acquitted.

Savannah News, -id.
The Savannah Republican learns from
gentlemen just through Vicksburg from
Texas, that the Federals lately made a
raid to Tupelo depot, on the Vicksburg,
Shreveport and Texas Railroad, burnt
the depot, hospital, 2,000 hogsheads of
sugar, a large amount of Confederate ba*
con, and captured 40 convalescents in the
hospital. From tho same source the Re
publican learns that tho steamer Fair
Play, with 5,000 Enfield rifles, destined
for Gen. Hindman’s army, was captured
at Milliken’s Bend by the Federal gun
boats.
The Presbyterians of the Confederate
States, in providing for that complete sep
aration from Northern associations which
our present and future interests require,
have establishad a Publication House in
Richmond. They will thus furnish them
selves with their own literature. This is
a policy much to be applauded, both as a
duty to patriotism, and as saving their
people from the contamination of North
ern heresies.
Gov. Letcher has issued a proclama
tion, convening tho General Assembly of
Virginia on the loth day of September
next.
{NO. 32.
New Style of GunfinaU.
It is stated that the enemy are busily
engaged in tho Western rivers in the
construction of a large fleet of gunboats
of very poculiar build, intended to navi
gate the waters of tho shoalest rivers of
the South. They are flat-bottomed and
have a breadth of beam sufficient to en
able them to carry heavy armor and an
effective armament in a draft of water
of not more than two-and-a-half to three
and a-half feet. These, remarks the
Mobile Advertiser, will be formidable
antagonists, for thero is scarcely a creek,
river or bayou on the Gulf coasts, from
the Rio Grande to Key West, which they
cannot penetrate during the winter. Thus
with little risk the cowardly enemy, with
a single gunboat, can make his way into
the inner country at a hundred points,
where ho coaid not march without thou
sands of men, with transportation trains
and all the paraphernalia of an invading
army.
Every settlement and dwolling on the
minor and largo water courses will thus
be imperilled, and a great extent of
country exposed to tho dangerous conse
quences of the intrusion of an enemy
bent on doing all tho damage bo can,
even to the most detestable practice of
stirring up insurrectionary troubles.
Forewarned is forearmed, and we must
prepare to disappoint tho objects of the
foe by obstructing aud defending the
rivers against these peculiar antagouists,
and the abandoning their banks with
goods and chattels when (hey cannot be

From Nortli Alabama.
Wo had the pleasure of meeting yes
terday Hon. R. W. Wnlkcr, formerly
member of ihe Provisional Congress,
and Hon. Robert Patton, Presidont of
the Alabama Stato Senate, and from
them we learn that the Yankees in North
Alabama are exerting themselves moro
and more to destroy the property and
desolate the country which is cursed
with their presence. No distinction is
made between “Union” men and seces
sionists ; all are plundered alike. The
negroes are stolen and carried off;
houses are broken open and plundered ;
fields are ravaged and one wide spread
desolation proclaims that the represen
tatives of the humano and enlightened
lankco natioD, aro “possessing and oc
cupying” the land. The Yankees have
now held North Alabama in chains for
noarly five months, and wo hope the
day of dcliverauco is not far off, and
that the time will soon como when these
gentlemen and others in their position,
can return to their homes, no longer
within the power of the Yankee hire
lings.— Mont. Adv.

The New York Times of tho 27th ult.,
says:
The rebel emissary who passed through
Buffalo a day or two ago, supposed to be
Wm. L. Yancey, turns out to be no more
important a personage than Geo. N. Ban
ders. lie sailed in tho steam ship Jura
from Quebec on Saturday.
The “day or two ago” may bo consid
ered a woek or two weeks.
For the information of certain ex
changes who have undertaken to admon
ish and correct all papers that published
lately, a paragraph concerning George
N. Sanders, wo take occasion to state that
the paragraph in its separate form, first
appeared in the Courier, and was found
ed on good information, and was not pub
lished until the danger of injury from
publication was passed — Ch. Courier
The President of tho Southern Ex-press
Company has issued a circular to the
agents and employees of tho Company,
in which ha gives rules for tho detection
of counterfeit Confederate notes, and of
fera a reward of one thousand dollars
for the apprehension and conviclion of
any person who shall pass such counter
feit notes upon any ageut of tho Com
pany.
Tho navigation of tho Tennessee river,
which i3 of vast importance to the enemy
in forwarding supplies, is becoming rath
er dangerous. Two or three of their
transports have recently been destroyed.
The policy of the Tennesseeans now is to
punish the invader wherever he can be
found, and it will soon work out the re
demption of tho State.
No new movements of the Yankee
gunboats have been observed sinco yes
terday. They are still lurking about in
this neighborhood. It may perhaps be
that the presence of these boats is in
tended to cover the movements of tbeir
army so as to come on this place by sur
prise. This they will never bo able to
do, as our preparations are complete and
our watchfulnoss uni elaied.— Vicksburg

The Charleston Courier, of Sept. 2d,

of tho retreating host, who, it is thought,

AU city readers will be delighted in
learning that Gen. Beauregard, on re
porting for duty, received an order as
signing him to this department. Wo
hope soon to announce his entrance on
its duties. —Charleston Courier, Sept. 2d.

From tho following speoial dispatch to
tho Appeal from Scnatobia, compiled
from tho Memphis Bulletin of the 2Ctb,
it will bo seen that previous intelligence
from Clarksville and Fort Donelson is

tho rebels at from four huudred to six
hundred ; not a gun was fir^d.
Mason and his men were paroled and
went, down the river. Later and further
iuformation from Clarkesville shows the
surrender to have been the most ooward
ly and disgraceful of the war. The pa
roled prisoners were allowed to carry off'
their horses and sido arms. The surren
der was rnudo to an inferior forco of rebel
cavalry. Mason and Woodward made
speeches complimenting each other.
