Kentucky View ofthe Presidents Emancipation Message Last week we gave our views in regard to the recommendation of the President in his emancipation message. We have ' noticed that we were not far wrong, in our opinion then expressed, of the reception it would receive in the border States. The following is an extract from the Cincinnati Gazette’s Mt. Sterling, Ky., correspondence, and doubtless reflects the eentiments of the Union men there; Hut it seemed we were getting along to well in the restoration ol the Lnion, . the Union sentiment in the South was I progressing too finely, so the President had to check it a little by giving a “foretaste of things to come,” as the Secession ■ Isis call his recent message. This message was a heavy blow for the Union in*n from a source least expected. Truly, it ‘made them sad at heart—not, un- ‘ derstand me, from ike fact of any unconstitutional recommendation, but because it is impolitic and unjust. Why should we be called upon at this crisis, when the ’ people have not the means even to pay ilie enormous tax already upon us, to ; buy out a particular species of property from certain States that have not even offered to sell such property? And thin the pretext! That it would lessen the ’causes of Disunion hereafter! Heavens! has legislation for the poor African be- j Tome the sumnium bonitm ol all states- , rnnitsbip? ,Do all avenues of escape from I 'duh present difficulties center in negro ' iimFlioraffon measures? Cannot even a tax-Tiddert people obtain any longer mercy and sympathy —to say nothing of the Union men of the South. Men to talk in this strain in Indiana would soon be called traitors. The Cincinnati Gazette in commenting on the evacuation ol Manassas, coupled with'the removal of McClellan, says there were only forty thousand troops there, a fid nothing but the imbecility of McCle Ilan prevented their being captured together with their stores. It does not speak of their force distributed along the Potomac from Acquia Creek to Manassas, thence to Leesburg, Harper’s Ferry and Winchester, or their reserves stationed at various places. It has intentionally misrepresented McClell in, and tried to destroy' the confidence that the people have in his generalship. General Fremont is the man according to the Gazette. II the Gazette was as honest as lhe New York Tribune, it would say in just so ninny words, we have every confidence in McClellan, but fear him as a presidential ryval in J 864. There is where the shoe pinches, and if they could get Fremont bolstered up so ns to be the “coming man,” we should hoar little fault finding, about McClellan’s war policy. As it is, they four the war will be over too soon. Rebel papers have of late ceased giving invitations to our troops to invade their soil; and in fact very little is sail about the last man dying in the ditch.— The retreat along their whole line,is said to be “purely stratagetic,” only to draw our pien down into their mountain fastnesses and cut them off in detail. They have ever gone so far as to p iss a bill through their Congress to burn their kings, cotton and tobacco, should it he in danger of falling into our hands. England lin'd France would not raise the blockade, consequently it must not reach them through Federal hands. They would gladly involve all in one common ruin — They will not long be permitted to ruin themselves or any body else. lion. J P. C. Shanks has our thanks for favors in the way of public documents, among them his defense of Fremont. The General has been tried twice. In CaU(oi nia his soldiers managed to eat a bullock a day, according to official repuUs. In his department in Missouri, during the last campaign .he only destingdjshed feature was the defeat of Lyon, ihe'Hlhof Lexington, and anv amount us stealing. The great faith the Administration ixesClsea, has again ventured to give him a command on the principle, nothing ven tun’ll nothing won, we suppose. Os outrsc, we may soon ixpi cl to hear ol furrier .access in Lis peculiar line.

II 11’ UM ——M>4/VAJlTir' S!JF Governor Murton has appointed Ex-Governor Wright United States Senator to fill lhe unexpired term of Jesse D. Bright. We presume there is none who will gainsay the old adage, that he is emphatically the Wright man in the right place.—Decolwr Eagle. All right. Now, Brother Hill, don’t back down from that if you please. Most of your Indianapolis platform papers are reading Governor Wright out of the pal- : ty, but you are committed fully now. | Stand to it, is aII we ask. But will you do us the favor to post us a little in this I matter? How can you support Governor | Wright while he repudiates the Indianapolis Convention and platform? And a-, gain, loving the Governor as you do, how can y »u support that con vention and platform when it refused to endorse him or his politics? We are well pleased with the appointment of Ex Governor Wright, especially as we expected Governor Morton would appoint a genuine wooly Republican. — i But Governor Morton had an old score i to settle. You remember that bargain and sale of Lane and Morton, by which l’ Lane become Senator. Before that was - accomplished, Gov. Morton was well nigh defeated in his aspirations (or Governor ' I br some of these leaders. Remembering \ 1 . this, he could not appoint any of his own political family. To gratify his private , feelings a conservative man was appointed; how could we help expressing our satisfaction? About the convention and platform:— l ( You and party are beyond the hope of', reasonable expectation; Governor Wright, is not far wrong, and the Democratic party while not perfect is the only organiza- - lion that affords us any hope, in the future. Did you ever read nil tha resolutions adopted by tiiat Convention, Bro. Bright? There is one something about “birds of prey.” Well, tha Democratic party is I not in favor of letting them have another “grab.” We hope that is not the reason of your hostility to it. UATTLEUI'“pEA KIDGE, Farther Particularsofthe Action. Pea Ridge, Ark., March 9. During the past, three days we have ! had soma terrible fighting against fearful odds. On Wednesday, Gen. Curtis, Com-mander-in Chief, whose headquarters was at Camp Halleck, received reliable ! information that the rebels, under Van Dorn, Mclntosh, McCulloch, Price and Pike, were marching on us with a large force of Confederate rebels and Confed- i erate Indians. All prisoners taken give lhe rebel fores at from 35,000 to 40,000. i General Curtis then ordered Carr’s division to move from Cross Hollows to ' Sugar Creek to take a stronger position ! which he had previously selected in case . of attack. Col. Carr inarched in the night and joined Gin. Davis, who had previ ously taken position, before break of day, ; in good order. G n. Pig'd, at Bentonviile, was also ordered to rejoin Gen. Curtis nt the same point. Sigel’s rear cut their way through the enemy at the latter place, and kept up the fight for six miles. The rebels on Friday morning having made a delour from Bentonville, got a heavy foice directly on our rear and right, occupying the hights and brush on both sides of the Fayetteville road. Colonel Carr’s division was sent to dislodge them. The battle commenced at half past 10 A. M., and raged for eight hours, until darkness put an end to the contest.— They played on us from masked batteries. At night we occupied a position nearer our camp. The ca.nage was dreadful on both sides. Simultaneously with the action on our right, fighting took place opposite our front near Leetown, between Gen. Davis and another large body of the enemy.— The latter were forced from the field, and hastened to form a junction with the rebels on our right. ■ The numerous instances of gallantry and heroic devotion which occurred, canno’ be mentioned in this communication. The movement of the enemy caused a change of our line. The battle was resumed next morning, (Saturday) about half past six o’clock, our guns opening on the enemy. General Carr formed in the center, ■ with Davis on the right and Sigel on the left. The line of battle, which extended over two miles, was a magnificent sight. The enemy occupied an open wood, directly in front, a perfect hive of them. They also covered a high bluff, more to the left, where a batteiy was planted. They had another battery playing on us from a more central position, and also a battery of twelve rifled pieces on the Fayetteville road. We opened upon them with five batteries planted at different points along our whole line, the cross fire producing such tremendous effect as caused the enemy to falter in dismay. Soon after 10 A. M. Gen. Curtis gave the order to advance, and the infantry becoming engaged, poured in such a murderous fire of musketry, that lhe enemy fled from the fields in all directions. The victory was decisive. Under the eye of General Curtis, Com-mander-in-Chief, Genera) Sigel followed the flying enemy several miles. Colonel Bussy, with a civalry force, is in pursuit toward Boston Mountains, after the main ,body.

Further Particulars of the Pea Ridge Battle, Rolla, Mo„ March 16.-The remains of Colonel Hendricks, of the twenty-ninth , Indiana, killed at the battle of Pea Ridge I Arkansas, arrived here yesterday, accompanied by his brother and two or three other gentlemen, who left the battle ground on the Monday following the battle. They represent the contest as a terrible one.’ The rebels fought desperately using stones in their cannon when their I shot gave out. Their force is stated at 30.000, including 2,200 Indians under Albert Pike. As near as could be ascertained, our loss is 600 billed and 800 to 1,000 wounded. The rebel surgeons who came to dress the wounds of their fallen, acknowledged a loss of 1,100 killed and from 2 500 to 3,000 wounded. We took 1,600 pris-1 oners and 13 pieces of artillery, 10 of which were captured by Genera) Sigel’s command and 3by Colonel Patterson’s Brigade. Two of our cannon, belonging to Davidson’s Botiery, were taken by the rebels, but were recaptured by our troops The rebels were completely whipped — one division under Price fleeing in one dilection and the other under Van Dorn taking another. Maj Hebert, of one of the Louisiana Regiments, who was taken prisoner, says Genera! Frost, of Camp Jackson notoriety, was killed. Interesting from Manassas—Head long Fight of the Rebels. [Herald’s Dispatch.] » | Washington, March 14. — Gen. McClellan reviewed a division of the army in the vicinity of Manassas this afternoun and as he rode along the lines he was greeted by the most vociferous cheers and enthusiasm. A fugitive from a village on tho Or ange & Alexandria Railroad, 37 miles from Gordonsville, came into the camp of the Ira Harris Cavalry’ to day. He states that there wire forty thousand rebel troops in the town when he left, and that they continued to- pour in wildly and hurriedly, under the impression that the Union army was in pursuit of them. Gen. Johnston and other rebel officers were dining at the tavern when he le ft. He states that the road from Rappahannock to Manassas is strewn with mus kets, knapsacks, haversacks, blankets and provisions, flung away in ths retreat and numbers of soldiers lay fainting and exhausted bv the roadside. IMPORTANT FROM NEW MADRID. Tlie Town in the Hands of our Troops Sudden Stampede ofthe Rebels—Great Amount of Arms, Stores and other property left behind. New Madrid, March 14. via[ Cairo, March 16 J New Madrid is taken. The rebels evac naled both forts last night, crossing the river by means of transports during a heavy storm. ; They left fourteen heavy guns a large quantity of ammunition, tents, camp

equippage, several flags, about three hun dred horses and mules, besides waggons stores, officers, baggage, Ac. The rebels had also nine gunboats here i during the fight which probably passed down the liver under cover of the storm. The principal fight commenced yesterday morning at daylight, and continued without intermission till dark. Two of die rebel gunboats were disabled bv our 'guns, and three of the guns in the lower fort dismounted. The rebels spiked all the guns which they were unable to remove, and threw a number into the river two miles above. The rebel loss is not known; our own was exceedingly small — probably less i than one hundred. The regiments chi, fly engaged were i the Twenty-Seventh, Thirty-ninth. Forty | third and Sixty-third Ohio, and the | Tenth and Sixteenth Illinois, with the First Regular infantry, nnd Colonel Bissell’s Engineer Regiment. The victory was won entirely by the i land forces under General Pope. The gunboats did not arrive. It is reported that island No, 10 is also evacuated, From the Tennessee River—News from General Smith’s Expedition. St Louis, March 16. — A Savannah, ' Tenn, dispatch to the Democrat, says: — The Expedition up the Tennessee river : have nearly all arrived here, and the fleet I is now on the point of proceeding further | up the river. The expedition is commanded by’ Gen. C. F Smith, with Gens. Sherman, Me Clernan 1. Hurlbut and Wallace as division commanders. The force is large and fully able to conquer any army the rebels can bring against it. Gen. Grant remains in command at Fort Henry. The enemy’s force in this section is 1 variously estimated from thirty to one ; hundred thousand. ; Gen. L«>w Wallace’s division went to ■ Purdy, McNairy county yesterday burned a bridge, took up the track on the rail- “ road leading from Humbolt to Corinth, ■ Mississippi, thus cutting off a train heavily laden with troops, which arrived as ' the bridge was burning, RrT The Chicago Times says the Presi ident has concluded to give Fremont anI other trial in the field. We believe somet body, after repeated trials, has made a i whistle of a pig’s tai’:, but it was a verv poor whistle.

■Gen. McClellan’s Address to his Soldiers —Cause of Past Inactivity—The Potomac Army to go on 1 Active Duty. Headquarters Army of the Potmac,) ■ Fairfax C. 11., March 14. ) Soldiers of the Army of the Potomac-. For a long time I have kept you inactive, but not without a purpose. You were to be disciplined, armed and instructed. The formidable arlilery you now have had to be created. Other prmies were to move to accomplish certain results. I have held you back that you might give tho death blow to the rebellion which has distracted this once happy country. The patience you have shown and your confidence in your General, are worth a dozen victories.— These preliminary results are now accomplished. I feel that the patient labors of many months have produced their fruits. The Army of the Potomac is now a real | army, magnificent in material, admirable in discipline and instruction, and excellent--I}’ equipped and armed. Your coin’anders are all that I could wish. The moment for action has arrived, and I know that I ean trust in you to save our country. As 1 rido through your ranks I see in your facts the sure prestige of victory. I feel that you will do whatever I ask of you.— The period of inaction has passed. I will briug yen now face to face with the rebels, and only pray that God mav defend the right. In whatever direction 1 maj move, however strange my actions may appear to you, ever bear in mind (hat my fate is linked with yours, and that all I do is to bring you where I know yon wish to be—on the decisive battlefield. It is my business to place you thtre. lam to watch over you as a parent over his children and you know that your General loves you from the depths of his heart. It shall be my care, as it has ever been to gain success with the least possible loss, but I know that if it is necessary you will willingly follow me to our graves foroUr righteous cause. God smiles upon us; victory attends us, yet I would not have you think that our aim is to be obtained without a manly struggle. I will not disguise it from you that you have brave foes to encounter, foeman well worthy of the steel which you will use so well. I shall demand from you great and heroic exertions; rapid and long marches; desperate combats; privations. We will share all these together, and when the sad war is over, will al! return to our homes and feel that we can ask no higher honor that the proud conciousness that we belonged to 1 the Army of the Potomac. [Signed] “Geo B McClellan. M ijor-General C mmanding ” ; The Rebel Batteries at Acquia Creek Not Yet Evacuated—Rebels at Fredericksburg. [Times' Dispatch] Washington, March 14—The steamier Achilles, while passing the rebel batteries st Acquia Creek last night, was

fired at six times, indicating that there are some rebels yet lingering on the Po- 1 tomac. None of the shots took effect. Gen. Hooker was of the opinion at nine o'clock today that the rebels had not aband med Fredericksburg. The firing , from Acquia Creek batteries last night seems ttrconfirin the opinion. Island Number Ten Captured, with All the Rebels Ammunition and Transports. ST. Lours, March 17 —ln response to a serenade to-night, G> n. Halleck announced from the balcony of the Planters House that Island Number Ten is ours, with all the guns, ammunition and transports the enemy had there. Also another victory gained in Arkansas, in which there were three rebel Colonels captured. The particulars have not yet transpired Capture of Newbern, North Carolina— Desperate Fighting—Cabture of a Large Amount of Stores—Newbern Burnt, Baltimore, March 18.—The enemy’s works, six miles below Newbern, were atattacked on Friday morning last. They were defended by a force 10,000 strong, having 21 guns, posted behind formidable batteries over two miles long. The fight was one of the most desperate of the war. Our troops behaved with great steadiness and courage, and after nearly four hours hard fighting drove the rebels from all their positions, capturing 3 light batteries of field artillery. 46 heavy siegeguns, large stores of fixed ammunition, 3.000 stand of small arms, and 200 prisoners, including 1 Colonel, 3 Captains and 4 Lieutenants. The enemy left a large number of dead on the field. They escaped by cars to Goldsboro, burning the bridges over the Trent and Claremont, and firing the city of Newbern.— .No extensive damage was done to the place. We lost about 100 killed, and 400 wounded mortally, of the New England regiments. Rev. 0 M. Benton was among the killed, and Maj >r. Legender, of the Fiftyfirst New \ ork Volunteers. mortally wounded. Lieutenant-Colonel Merritt, of the Twenty-third Massachusetts, and Adjutant F. A. Stearns, of the Twentyfirst Massachusetts, of Amherst, were also killed. Latest from New Madrid. Cairo, Match 18.—Our boats kept up an incessant fire yesterday. The rebels have six distinct batteries on the Ten- i nessee shore. Shells from the mortars fall into the enemy’s intrenchments ever? shot. A shot struck the Benton killin ’ 1 and wounding 7; one rifled gun burst°ou the St. Louis wounding several. t
