Tl:e Rattle of Somerset, lly.-Fourth
IVdeial Account.
Cincinnati, Jan. 21. —Dispatches have
u received at headquarters in Louisville
: oouncing that the battle at Somerset did
take place on Saturday, but on Sunday
■'■hirmng, and that Gon. Thouima oontiuuod
of the rebels until night.
Our forces followed the rebels, who ran
! More them in the wildest coufusion, like a
kuck of sheep, close up to their entrench
ments on the north bank of the river,
Iu front of their entrenchments the rebels
ii'l all night, expecting that we would storm
'Hni in the morning; but with the aid of
tlieir boats and barges they managed to get
a cross the river before daylight.
1 hey left behind all their ammunition, hor-
Ks > and tents, and eighty wagon loads of
quartermasters’ and medical stores fell into
our hands.
Our troops had possession of tlieir entrench
ments early in the morning.
After reaching the opposite side of the
nver the rebels dispersed in every direction.
Two hundred dead and wounded rebels
*ere picked up on the field.
General Zollicoffer was found iu a wagon,
mortally wounded.
Our loss is not definitely ascertained, but
11 inu>t be considerable.
The Surgeon of the Tenth Indiana regi
ment telegraphed that his regiment had 70
'd J and wounded.
( • ni ral Thomas’ division embraces some
best regiments in this department,
rj, a Or as I can learn, the Ninth Ohio, the
0 Indiana, the Second JMinnisota, the
Eighteenth Regulars, the fourth K mucky
the Tenth Kentucky regiments were am ng
those engaged.
Colonel Manson’s Brigade, including tho
Tenth Indiana, the Eighteenth Regulars, ami
some Kentucky regiments, reinforced Gen.
Thomas during Saturday night. They made
a forced march of twenty-five miles through
heavy roads, and managed to arrive three
hours before the commencement of the fight,
in which they took a glorious part, in spite
of their fatigue.
The tenor of all the official dispatches re
ceived goes to show that the affair resulted
in the most brilliant victory of the war.
No prominent officers are said to be killed
on our side.
General Sckoepff was unable to cutoff the
retreat of the enemy, owing to the bluffy
j character of the country and the obstruction
of the roads by felled timber.
Louisville, Jan. 21. —There is no news
from General Thomas to-day.
No details of the Federal loss have yet
i been received.
General Thom** taken the steamer j
and the nine barges in which the rebels con-1
veyed their forces across the Cumberland,
and which in their precipitate flight they
fail* and to destroy.
Ihe theory at headquarters is, that using
that boat to convey his troops across the riv
er southward, slnd providiug other means of
transportation, General Thomas lias been too
busy to send the details of the recent fight.
No private telegraphic dispatches of mili
tary matters can come over the Southern
li c to Louisville, and no private information
has been receive!.

cial dispatch to the Petersburg Express,
from a friend in Knoxville, gives the follow
ing account of the late battle of Fishing
Creek, Ky. : “Gen. Crittenden began the
attack at seven o’clock Sunday morning.—
The enemy’s strength was supposed to be
about fifteen hundred, but as afterwards as
certained, numbered fourteen thousand, —
Gen. Zolliceffer was killed early in the ac
tion. Gen. Crittenden was wounded, when
Gen. Carroll assumed command and re cross
ed the Cumberland. Our loss is about three
hundred, Glut of the enemy from four to five
hundred.
“Fifteenth Mississippi, White’s and Rat
tle’s Regiments, protected our rear, while
our army was re-crossing the river. Rut
ledge’s and JMcClung’s batteries were both
lost. We inarched nine miles to attack the
enemy, who was repulsed three times, and
fell back to their fratifications. They then
outflanked us. We retreated to our breast
works and were surrounded by the enemy,
but determined to re-cross the Cumberland
river, which we did under a heavy lire.—
This was eight o’clock, Sunday night. We
lost all our horses, tents, equippage, and
eleven guns, 'i he latter were either spiked
or thrown into the river.
“It is not known whether the enemy have
crossed the river. Cols. Powell, flattie,
Stathane and Cummings, were wounded.—
Surgeons Morton, Dulany and Cliff, were
taken prisoners. Our regiments were all en
gaged. Majors Fogg and llilds were woun
ded, the former in the hip. Gen. Zollicof
for’s body was not recovered. Our forces
were about six thousand strong, and are still
falling back.”

OBITUARY.
Died, in this city, on the Cth inst., Mr Charles G. Bea
vers, aged M 2 years, 11 months and 24 days. The painful
circumstances aitending the death of Mr. Beavers having
already betn published in the city pa| ers, we deem it un
necessary to recite them in this connection.
Mr Beavers was born near Chattanooga, cn the 29th
January, F 29, and was a son of Mr. Richard M. and Mrs.
Mary Beavers. Ills father and a sister (Mrs. Majors) now
reside near Knoxville, Tenn., and lie has a brother (Spencer
M. Beavers), in the Confederate States’service, at Valley
Mountain, Va.
Mr. Beavers was an affectionate and devoted husband, a
kind and indulgent father, an obliging and u-eful neighbor,
a sincere and warm-hearted friend, and, in every sense of
the term, a perfect gentleman. In all his dealings with his
fellow-men he wasgu'ded by thar. “golden rule”: “ Do unto
others-as you would have others do unto you.” All who
haevv him respected him as a high-minded, honorable man.
and he was in every way truly worthy of the confidence
thus reposed in him.
Possessing a frank, nrble and generous disposition, with
a heart ever ready to sympathise with those in want or
distress, and a hand ever willing to supply their wants and
relieve their distresses, he made friends of all with whom
be became acquainted. Asa business man tie was noted
for his sobriety, industry and integrity ; ai#l never yet have
we found any one who could say aught against him in any
way whatever.
Mr B. leaves an amiable and affectionate wife and three
helpless children and a large circle of friends to mourn his
loss.
Truly, “in the midst of life we are in death,” and none of
us c-,n tell “what a day may bring forth.” But while we
mourn the loss of a dear husband, father and fr'end, and
the dispensations of Provideuce seem dark aud mysterious,
let us remember that
“ God moves in a mysterious way
His wonders to perform ;
He plants his footsteps in the sea,
And rides upon the storm.”
And remember that, oftentimes,
“ Behiod a frowning Providence
He hides a smiling lace.”
May that great and meriefal God, “»ho doetli all things
well,” prove a husband and lather to the w idow and orphans;
comfort, console ami bless them in this their hour of need ;
and may they be prepared to meet their loved and lost one
in abetter world. H. J. S.
DIED,
On the morning of the 18th inst., at his residence, near
Athens, Dr. Hugh Neisler, in the 90th year o' hisage. The
deceased was one of the early settlers of Athens, where he
pursued his profession for many years, with eminent suc
cess. He leaves many descendants to mourn his loss. Os a
most charitable and kindly temper, he was universally res
pected for his skill in medscine, his ripe scholarship in the
learned languxges. as well as the modern, especially the
German, which he read amt spoke wit t facility. Among
the p’e.isant incidents of h s extreme oid age was the revi
val of his early religious instructions by his father, who was
an elder in the Brest yteriau Church, in North Carolina.—
Dr. Ne : sle r , dur 1 , <r the la-1 year of his life, gave satisfacto
ry evidence of h:s a eeptance of the overtures of salvation
through aci uc'r e K dettuer His lamp of life went gently
out, ami he breath and his last without a struggle.
