TUo War in Kentucky.
Nashville, Dec. 24.—The Bowling Green
correspondent of the L’nihn and American, ol
llic 23d, says the Federal Geueral, Buell, with a
formidable force, estimated at not less than
4,-,00b, and by many at 60,000 men, Inis been lor
several days past moving in the direction ol
Bowling Green. The unusual preparations Hint
making for the repulse of the enemy, Indl-
, ale that a terrible coullict is iinpeudiug.
A force of uot less than 0,000 men, constitu
ting the advance of Buell’s army, have crossed
(ireen River, and are now within live miles ol
uurudvauce, under Gen. Ulndnmn, who has re
treated across Green River.
The report is partially true that Hudtnuii

Camp Satii.i.a, Dec. 23, 1801.
Dear Xeivs—Agreeable to orders, the various
regiments and battailous comprising Urn 2d (Gen.
Capers’) Brigade, Slate troops, voted on the ques
tion relative to the trunfer of thu troops, ou Satur
day evening lust at dress parade. The result,
so far as l have ascertained, were only eleven
voles cast favoring the truufur to the Confede
rate States. So it will be seen that our Brigade
was almost unanimous in favor of remaining in
the State service.
The Brigade is composed of the following
commands:
3d Regiment—Col. It. J. Cowart.
•fill Regiment—Col. .1. .T. Neely.
Till Regiment—Col. Ge.o. 1*. Hunter.
2d Battalion—Maj. Taylor.
Macon German Artillery—Capt. Bnrghard.
Clayton Dragoons—Capt. Guydon.
There was a general review of thu troops com
posing this Brigade last Wednesday, for the first
lime, and they performed exceedingly well con
sidering their inexperience. Gen. Capers de
livered them a beautiful address on the occasion,
ills address waB fraught with good instruction
and eucourogement to the soldiers.
The health of the Brigade is improving—the
men having pretty well passed through the siege

SPICY INTEItVIEW BETWEEN GENERAL
LADY OK BALTIMORE.
A Mrs. W., of Baltimore, about to pay
of a low days to llie country to some
was driving through the city, iu her own ear
riage, with her trunk strapped behind. Sudden
ly the vehicle was stopped by a policeman, who
assured the lady she was under arrest, uud would
be obliged to repair immediately to the olliee of
ivost Marsbul.
W., somewhat indignant at the request,
refused to go, alleging us uu excuse, that such a
public place was unfit for a lady to fruqueut; she
said that she would go to the commanding Gen
oral, l)ix, at Fort McHenry, nut if the policeman
attempted to lake her to the Provost Marshal,
she would shoot him.
TUo miserable hireling, cowed from fear of ail
•med woman, said Very humbly, “As you
please, Madam; I will gel into llu* carriage and
go to the Fort wtili you.”
“You arc mistaken,” replied Mrs. W., "this
•urriuge is mine, and if you attempt to get into
it, 1 will Immediately lire upon you.”
The Lincoln pidiceuinu, ug iiu cowed, obeyed
is. W., who ordered him to lake Ills scut with
her coachman, in whom she now couilded as her
protector. Mrs. W. told him to drive to Fori
Mcileury.
Reaching theUastlle, she sent for Gen. I>lx,
who, always disconcerted when visited by ladies,
was peculiarly so ou ibis occasion—seeing a
lady wilh baggage, us though she were u “Stale
prisoner.”
Advancing to Mrs. W., he said : “Madam, 1 do
uni know how to address you.”
Mrs. W.-lt is lime you did, sir, since I am
arrested, 1 suppose, oityour authority.
Gen. Dix.—Madam, you look wearied : walk
into uiy olliee. (Ordering some regulars t*•
bring iii the trunk and search it, In* remarks to
Mrs. W.) This is a military necespily, Madam.
1 would these tilings were not, but the GoWru
meut must be supported. “United we stand,”
you kuow. Maduin, lmve you any sons iu the
Confederate Army ?
Mrs. NV.—I have three, Sir.
Gcu. Dix.—Did you aid and encourage them to
enlist in that service ?
Mrs. W.—Clem Dix, are you a married man V
Geu. Dix, 1 urn, Madam.
Mrs. NV.—Then ask your wile what she would
have done under similar circumstances.
Tlieu was heard from one ol the General's
satellites, “The rebel spirit of tin* Baltimore
women! It will never be extinguished !”
Gen. Dix.—Madam, you look taint and weary,
let me order yon some refreshments.
Mrs. NV. — Wliat, eat here! I, a Southern wo

hired Dutchmen from Ohio. Mr.

the war of 1812, also in the battle of New Orleans

my position outside their jurisdiction (the ma

parties to wail until twenty-four hours alter the
other’s departure, 1 chose the alternative of
blockading her outside; and here I am, when
she may any night escape, under the shidow ol

she can always observe our position, being open
to seaward. The Sumter looks very well, nml

a correspondent on board the United dtutes
steamer. Mamnchtuettn, oft* Ship Island, October
9(1, giving an nccnuul of the affair between that
vessel and ft Confederate steamer, in which tho
following extraordinary exploit of u rifted cun-
nou ball Is chronicled :
Daring the action 1 think we hit her four
times, and l know she hit us onett with it sixty
eight pound rifle shell (that is the wuy we gut
the exact size of her rifled gun). The shell en
tered on our starboard quarter, Just nbove the
Irou part of the hull; It came through the side
angling all (as It were a little abaft his beam
when it struck us,i and took the deck in the pas
sage way between two state rooms uud com
pletely cut off eighteen of the duck plunks, and
then struck a beam, which canted it up a little,
so that it look the steam healing pipes under
our diulng table, cutiiug ofl five of them and
tearing our diuing tabic ull to pieces—then went
through tbe state room bulkhead and coiling of
the ship ou the opposite side, and struck one ol
the orfiblde timbers uud broke every outside
plank abreast of it short otl' from tlm spar to
llie gun deck ; it then fell down oil to the cabin

Confederates at M -nassus. Sir, it seems the
Yankee*’ peculiar pleasure is to try to frighten
woiiicu and children. They cannot gain battles,
so they revenge themselves in tbit, ignoble man
ner. And now, sir, I imagine you have done.
Gen. Dix.—I regret, Madam, that we should
pcudcncc ol the Southern Confederacy.
J2T The New York Ilerahl says the Mexicans
have been playing a very mean trick on Tom
Corwin, who was bargaining with them for the
privilege of disembarking Lincoln troops at
Guay a inns, on the Pacific coast, Gulf of Califor
nia.* They told Thomas tlmt the Confederates
had offered $2,000,000 for the use of the port of
Malamoras, when he immediately offered $0,000,-
000 for the use of Girayumas, and was taken up,
after which he discovered that the Confederate
offer was only a little Mexicau trickery. Su
premely disgusted with thlsaud other thiugs, he
is coming home Boon^ ^ ^

there are teu thousand abolition soldiers sick
and now in tho Hospilnl at Louisville, and also
large uumbers in camp between Louisville and
unfortunate circumstances,

Sir, I demand one tiling of you lie
fore 1 depart. I have been arrested on suspi
cion. 1 desire now an honorable discharge.
Gcu. Dix.—Ob, madam, that is unnecessary; it
is a mere form, and therefore useless.
Mrs. NV.—I like forms, Gen. Dix, particularly
when connected with official documents.
The General, seeing Mrs. NV. determined,
dered the Secretary to write the discharge, and,
handing it i • Mrs. NV., said : ” Madam, I believe
that Is ull.”
M rrt w.—No, sir; not all yet. I wish your
name, added. I believe that is essential to such
a document. , , ,

started off. NVu must have run within half a mile
of her, and we certainly ought to have found out
whether she had got away from the Island before
we left ourselves. The crew all say tlmt
away from her, and 1 think so myself. NVken
