Of the "Danger of Exposure to a Draft," we often read That it generates disorders which are very bad, indeed; But the danger from "Exposure to a Draft" waa ne'er so great. As, I judge by indications, it has grown to be of late. Of all our "loyal cititens," I think I cannot tell Of more tban'half a doxen who are ''feeling very well;" And -n .jrion-are tlie phase-of the illness from one rause, That I wonder if Dame Nature .still is steadfast to her laws. One is halt, and one is blind, a third is deaf as any post; A fourth gone in consumption, and can hardly walk at most; A fifth is dying daily from a weakness of the spine, And a sixth is fading slowly in a general decline. There is Jenkins, stalwart locking, standing six feet in his shoes, And his cheeks, so plump, look ruddy a- the suuset's golden hues; But, ala-! the fond delusion! 'Us a hectic flush we see Tl . a pulmonary Jenkins, who ere Ion;; must cease to be. Then is Mugzins with an abdomen protrusive and rotu.nl, One would think his "constitution as it is" disease had But the Dropsy, that deceitful and iusidU us complaint. Hat begotten his detention "you may ak him if it ka'nt" If Jeff. Davis was a man of any gumption he would know That he wastes his ammunition when be shoots a dying foe: Ju-t let hitn halt in Dixie till a few more months are sped. And I'm sure our "loyal citizens" will nearly all be dead. The following list shows the number and location of the new regiments: 79th Indianapolis. 80th Evansville. "1st New Albany. H2d Madison.

The Liability or Foreigners to a Draft inouiry is raaoe as v me iwuiiuy 01 -orergi era j to a dratt. I he loliowing principles mav serve as a guide lo those interested: First The foreigner who has not thrown off' bis nationality, is, of full rig,ht and without any pos-sible dispute, exempt from any and every ob ligation to perform military duty, no matter uow proiracieo ins re-M-i-eiice ii lihuuiwu oni-w. , m Second The children of these foreigners, even if born within the United State, neces.irily follow the condition of their parents, and can not be compelled to assume the title and obligations of an American citizen, unless, upon attaining their majority, they shall, by acts of their own, bare laid aside the nationality of their family. Third The abdication of the original nation ality can result only from formal naturalization or the exercise of their rights of the Ameri m citizen. Those who, having made declaration of j .Mr intention to become American citizens, stop- i ped there, have, in no wise, lost their positions as i foreigners. Fourth The son of a naturalized foreigner is an American of full right, if he be born after each naturalization. Fifth But if he be bom previous to it, and particular! v il he be burn in his father's former country, he retains the right to choose between tne two nationalities, at Iii period ol ms ma jonty f i u: i a. . t.

the office of Dr. Barnes, and his wounds were dressed by Drs. Barnes an! Carter. Dixon is not expected to survive his injurien. The bail of j bis assailant, Tanner, is put ai $500. Would it not be well to increase it? The assault was one of the most unprovoked and wicked that we ever i heard of. Waa MRrriNos Col. R J.

The following dispatches to Governor Morton from Generals Bo vie and Morgan, show that the long threatened rebel invasion of Kentucky has actually commeuced. Kirby Smith, with about 15,000 men, twentyfour pieces of artillery, and an adequate force of cavalry, is moving from East Tennessee to cut off the supplies of our men at Cumberland Gap and compel its evacuation; and advance forces of his command have already taken possession of Somerset and Monticello. The former point threatens our communications seriously. Louisville, August 16. The intelligence received is unfavorable to-day. The rebels, 1 believe, are advancing, and I fear will cut off General Morgan's train and gain his rear. Lieut. Col. Hogeland, of Col. ClilYs 7th Tennesse regiment, telegraphs from Barboursi ille that the encmv, 2,500 strong, are in the vicinity of Clift's regiment, in Scott county, Tennessee. A dispatch from my spy at Someset says that two huu- 1 tired rebel cavalry at Monticello near Mill Spring. are supposed, to ue an advance guard Ol tue enemy. J. T. Boyle. Brigadier General Commanding. LorisviLLE, August 16. The rebels have entered the Stat.- at several points. Somerset is captured and in their posiession. They are moving on Glasgow and threaten Bowling Green. Order the troops from Evansville here and send all you cm. The men will receive their bounty afterwards. Any delay will be disastrous. J. T. Boyle, Brig. Gen. Com. Cumberland Gap, August 16. If you have not already done so please send all troops re;.Jy tor the field to Kentucky. The intelligence given me by my scouts satisfies me that Kirby Smith at the head of it least five brigades of infantry, four batteries at least of artillery and a corresponding force of cavalry is about to march through Big Creek Gap. Another force ol equal size is in front. The plan is to cut my line of supplies, compel, it possible, the evacuation of the Gap, and then invade Kentucky in force. Not a moment is to be lost. G. W. Morgan LorisviLLE, Aug. 16. Another dispatch from Gen. Morgan says: Kirby Smith is marching upon B.irboursville iu his rear with five brij;des of infantry and a proper proportion of cavalry and artillery. Gen. Morgan has retired part of Iiis forces to Bar boursville to hold the place and ask for reinforcements. Col. Bruce telegraphs me that Morgan is still in the vicinity of Gallatin, and had driven off the h inds :it woik on the Tunnel, and broken the hand tars. Forrest and btevens are expected to join him. J. T. Botle, Brig. Gen. Commanding. liOVKRNOR MAGOFFIN RESIGNED. A dispatch to Governor Morton Irom PtaUsstfort. Kentucky announces the resignation of Gov ernor M igortiii and Lieutenant Governor Fisk, and the occupancy of the Governorship by the Speaker of the Senate, Mr. Robinson, an unconditional Union man. The stirring new.- found Indiana readv to have a hand in the tight, if fight there is to he. The ! statement that her regiments were full, was no idle boast. The stalwart sons of the Hoos-ier j State were on hand, and nine regiments at once got marching orders and are already on the way i to Kentucky. When it is considered how many things are to be attended to in starting so many ' new regiments at a moment s warning, we can have some slight conception of the labor performed vesterdav bv the Governor and his mili tary aids. Permanent regimental officers bad not been j appointed to any of the regiments (except the l2th and 16th, reorganized under the old officers,) i and the Governor not -"isliin;;, in the hurry and the rush, to make such important appointments, i called upon Gens. Morris, Reynolds, Wallace, ) Dumont and Love, and Col. King, of the 19th j Regulars, to take temporary command of regiments for the emergency. I hese officers all responded cheerfully and will probably be assigned as follows: General Morris, fiTth regiment at Madison. (Jen. Reynolds, 7r-th, at Wabash. Gen. Wallace, GGtli, at New Albany. Gen. Dumont, I'M, at Lafayette. Gen. Love, 7lt,at Terre Haute. Lieut. Col King, 73d, at South Bend. Departure of Troops The 721 regiment under command of General Dumont, left last night for Louisville. They marched from their camp anil passed up Washington street about 8 o'clock and were loudly cheered along the line of march. They are a fine looking body of men The 66th from New Albany went to Louisville yesterday. The I2th and 16th regiments will leave this morning at 8 o'clock. They were being paid their advance money last night at the State Hmm. The 71st from Terre Haute were on their way here last night and are probably here now. They wili leave under the command of Gen. L-ove today. Other regiments- to the number of seven will leave to day, making nine that the State lias hurried up since the call for help was made from Kentuckv. Ylurion Count) Democratic Convcn. tion. A delegate convention of the Democracy of Marion county was held at the Court House on Siturday. August 16.

From Washington. Washington, Juf 16. The following General Order has just been issued: War Department, Adjutant Genl's Office, Washington, Aug. 12. ) The following is an order of the President of the United States, June 26, 1862: First The forces under Major Generals Fremont, Banks and McDowell, including the troops now under Brigadier General Sturgia at Washington, shall be consolidated and form one army to be called the Army of Virginia. Second The command of the Army of Vifginia is specially assigned to Major General John Pope as the commanding General. The troops of the Mountain Department heietofore under command of General Fremont shall constitute the first army corps uuder command of General Fremont. The troops of the Shenandoah De partmeut, now under command of General Banks, shall constitute the second army corps and be commanded by him. The troops under command of General McDowell, except those within the fortifications and the city of Washington, shall form the third army corps and be under his command. By order of the Secretary of War. E. D. Towxsend, Assistant Adjutant General. From "New York. New Yore, August 15 The steamer Saxon, from New Orleans on the 5th, arrived this morning. Gen. Butler has issued an order setting forth the need of relief to the destitute requires more extended measures and greater outlay than has yet been made, and that as a question of justice, the burden should fall upon those who brought this great calamity upon their fellow citizens, namely, those individuals and corporations who have aided rebellion with their means, and those who have endeavored to destroy the commercial prosperity of the city. A subscription of $1. 250 ,000 was made by corporate bodies, business firms and persons, whose names are giveu, so defend the city against the Government of the Coiled States, whilst the cot ton brokers, names also given, issued a manifesto in October, advising planters not to bring their produce to the city. These parties are all assessed by Gen. Butler's order for the purposes above named, to the amount of $342,000, of which which over $312,000 is on -subscription to the $1 ,- 250,0110. An intercepted letter r-tates that Dr. M. was organizing a secret Confederate army in New Orleans, and has 3,000 men enrolled From Fortreo -.on roc. FoRTRtss Monroe, August 13. The military telegraph to Fortress Monroe has stopped woiking, and it is feared the cable is broken. From the Richmond Dispatch, Aug. 12, we learn that three gunboats came up York river to Vet Point on Sunday morning last, and after remaining there little while, took their depar ture. On the same day the Federals landed a force at Carr's Farm, in King and Queen's County. The object of these moves is a matte." of consid eration, though it is possible thai troops are passing by that route from McClellan's army to the Rapiiahaniiock. All the Federal officers, numbering about 140, taken in the recent battles before Richmond, iucluding Oens. MoCall, Reynolds and R tnkiu, are to be sent down the river to-day under a flag of ti uce. From ahvllle. Nashville, Aug. 14. Col. Miller has just re turned from Gallatin with his command. There is no Union telegraph operator in Gallatin, antl t'-i- condition ot affairs is not known. Morgan entered Gallatin at 4 o'clock iu the morning, after capturing the sentinels, who were asleep. Col. Boone, the Union commander, was in bed. The surrender was conditional upon pa role for officers and men alike, wiiich was granted. Col. Boone has gone to Kentucky. Prominent Union men were arrested, but afterwards were discharged unconditionally. Morgan h said to be still iu possession of Gal latin. Arrangements have been made for the restoration of the railroad and telegraph communication between Nashville and Louisville via Gallatin, which will be finished in about ten day. From Pope) Drparlnient. Siof.l's Headqi auters near Rapidas River. August 15 Iu ne.irly every house between Cedar Mountain and the Rapidan "wounded rebels are found. Contrabands report that Jacksou is driving all the colored eople before him and ordered that they be shot in attempting to escape. The country near Orange is stripped of food and forage. Planters begin to fear starvation and say they will endure it rather than take the oath. Scouting parties fiou Goitlonsville report Jack son's entire army had reached there. Deserters say that more than 5,000 conscripts have left Jackson's army and are straggling in the woods. The Tribune bus the following dated Head quarters of the Aarmv of Virginia near Cedar Mountain. August 15: The latest courier from the front brings no news of kirmishes or of any further movements of the enemy. It is ascertained that Jackson's forces have taken possession of and are now upon thorough fares moving to the southwest from Gordonsvilie. The hight of the Ranidau has somewhat delayed the movements of our troops but they are steadily advancing. Gen. Bank- is rapidly recovering and will be able to resume command of his corps in a day or two. Gen. Pope has issued an order to the effect that General OrderNo .r,requiring troops to be subsisted on the country, has been grossly abused by many officers and soldiers. It is to be distinctly understood that no officer or soldier has the right to enter the house or molest the person or disturb the property of any person. Whenever it is necessary or convenient provisions, forage and such articles us are required will be used but every seizure must be by order of the commanding officer ot troops there present and by the officer of the Department through which the issues are made. Any officer or soldier who entered the house or molested the property of any citizen will be severely punished. Foreign i s. Cape Race, August 15. The steamship Anglo Saxon passed this point at 5:30 this evening. Her dates are Liverpool 7th and Londonderry 8th, but the Lindonderry dispatch has failed to come to come to hand. The London Daily News thinks that the American tariff will not beecdured by the people when its pressure begins to be felt. It is thought that Napoleon will allude to the Italian and Mexican questions at the coming fete. It is rumored that several European sovereigns will soon meet at Cologne. French newspapers i: -' on Rome being delivered to Daly. Ii is stated that Qarib ildi lias about 850 followers with him, poorly armed. A rumor was current at Madrid that Murat is intended for Kiug ot Mexico.

A short time since the Indians stole one hundred and fifty horses and mules near this place, which belonged to Jack Robertson. Mormon troops under Captain Smith pursued them three huudred miles north without success. The troops were without provisions a week and obliged to subsist on mules. The Stiake Chief Wasakee is now here. From walun(lon. Washington, August 16. A special to the Post says: Gen. McCall returned from Richmond with different ideas of the war. He says that our motto should be instant submission on the part of the rebels or their extermination. The General is at the War Department to day. The exchange of pi isoners is still progressing through Adjutant General Thomas. It is now confined to officers. Washington has resumed its former liveliness. The arrival and departure of troops still continues. The tug Leslie returned to the navy ys-d this morning bringing up a small sloop called the Bloom, of St. Mary's, Maryland, and eight pria oners captured on Monday night by the Reliance while crossing to Maryland. The i ' . ; -tain acknowledges that he has taken several cargoes of merchandise to Virginia. Thus is the contraband trade being effectually broken up. There are now about 600 prisoners, both militan and State, confined in the old C.pital prison, 1 IU of them taken in the recent buttle at Cedar Mountain. Directions have been recci-eu to
prepare for 2 HI more t:'ken in tiie same engage ment who will probably reach Washington sometime during the next twenty-tour hours. Col. Corcoran, Col. Wilcox, Lieut. Col.

He would take the opportunity to say a few words to his fellow citizens. Hon. Alfred Ely has been solicited to nuke the welcome speech, and the old G9th are ordered to Washington to be present at the reception. The Navy Department has received particular of the capture of the steamer Columbia by the Santiago De Cuban, seventy-five miles from Abaceo. She left Nassau the day previous ander British colors, but no register. She was load ed with munitions of war. She is a new and fast iron propeller, probably intended for a gunboat. She had aboard Charleston, Savannah and Bohemian pilots. From Pope's Department. Ctlpkppi-u, Va , Aug. 47. Col. Fecklin went yesterday with a construction train as far as Rapidan Station, but learning that a considerable fore of the enemy was within gunshot of the river"on the other side, it was thought inexpedient to begin repairs on the bridge until Pope's forces, now on the march, should reach the river to cover the workmen. Col Fecklin found near the river I lot of flour sto:el for Confederate use, wh ch he seized. Contrabands from Uordonsville report the continuous arrival of troops from Richmond. We were occupying the line of the Rapidan from on the east to Carnsford on the left, with picket and scouting parties beyond these points. Gen. Batiks is fast recovering from recent injuries. Gen Sigel who occupies the advance near the 1 Rapidan reports this morning that the enemy made a feint or attempt to cross the river but he drove them back. There was a general movement towards the ; Rapidan to day. If the enemy wanted to dis- ! pute the passage or possession of Orange they will endeavor to drive us back. Nothing has been heard from them so tar. From Nanlivilie. Nashville, August 16. A construction train left this morning to repiir the tunnel at Gallatin. The hands were captured by guerrillas near Gallatin. The engineer escajied with the locomotive. It is rumored that the houses ot several Union men have been burned at Uallatin. Two bridges on the Edgefield railroad were burned to day by the rebels, one on Red river. It is reported that the track was torn up this side of Tullahona. Two Federal couriers were captured by guerrillas uine miles south of the city Inst night. Their dispatches and horses were taken from theui and they were then released. They report a large force under Stores, north of Murfreesboro. Col. Miller made an armed reconnoissance towards Gallatin, last night, and ascertained that Morgan had decamped iu the direction of Hartsville. All railroad communication with Nashville is cut off'. Telegraphic communication is interrupted. F rom Cairo. Cairo, August 17. Judge Joshua Allen, a member of Congress from the Ninth District, was . arrested and brought here charged with discouraging enlistment. Judge Duff, of Marion county, was also arrested on the same charge. The Memphis Bulletin of the 14th says Jeff. Thompson surprised a company of the 3d V isconsin, eleven miles east of Helena, on the llih. Our forces soon rallied and poured such a de structive fire on the en.jmy that they retreated in j disorder. Several of them were taken prisoners, i Jeff. Thompson sent a flag of truce to General j ! Hovey, who occupied Oldtown, thirty miles below j j Helena, last week, demanding the surrender of ! all within his lines, or prepare to fight. Hovey j discharged the Hag, and started in pursuit with ten days rations. From TliM--oiirt. Glasgow, Aug. 16. Guitar had a fight with Poindexter yesterday morning near Muscle Ford, Chariton county, some thirty miles from this place, and scattered Poindexter's men in all directions. Many of them passed through Roanoke last night. Two or three hundred were killed and wounded. Guitar's troops fought him for i eighteen miles running, and would have captured him but he destroyed a bridge over Muscle Ford I and swam the Chariton at Bulkhamer Mills. A i good many of them are getting home and some i have sent word on what teims tbev can stav at home; they bare taken the oath but now they want to stay at home. From Louisville. Louisville, August 16. By an amicable arrangement, John risk has resigned the Speakership of the Senate, and John Rooinson of Scott county elected Speaker. B. Magoffin has resigned the Governorship, and thus Robinson becomes Governor de facto tor Magoffin's unexpired term. Matt. Johnson, of Lexington, itas been elected Secretary of State. John B. Temple has resigned the Presidency of the Military Board, the duties thereof devolving on Robinson as acting Governor. Gov. Robinson and Johnson are able and staunch Union mcu. From New York. New York. August 17. The steamer Trade Wind from New Orleans on the 6th reports that the rebels under Breckinridge attacked Baton Rouge on the 5th but were repulsed. Gen. Williams had his head shot off by a caunon ball. Secretary Stanton's Oroer It is to be hoped that Secretary Stanton, who seems to be an impulsive sort of gentleman, will be induced to reconsider his late order forbidding the appointment of officers in the field to commands in the new regiments. The impolicy of such an order at this crisis when six hundred thousand fresh troops are to be put in active service, is so apparent, that it would seem idle to offer arguments against it, and that ridicule would be the most effective weapon. But it is not in good taste to ridicule the head of the most important Department of the Government, however he may lay himself open to such assault-. The practical effect of the order will be productive of evil all round. It will deprive the aspiring young officers ofthelineof all hopes of preferment except in their own regiments where diseaae and battle may make vacancies, and it will create the feeling that they are chained by sort ol eoff to inferior positions, while new men, untried and unskilled, are to be ronstantly placed over tbeir heads. Every military man knOr) What discontent such an idea will create, and that it will spread to the ranks. The soldier looks upon the promotion of his officer as a com-
pliment to himself, and as making an opening through wl-ich he may finally rea :h the grade of the officer. We know that Colonels of regiments and Genends of -brigades aud divisions are reluctant to Dart with their meritorious officers. It is natural they should be; but they can easier supply the places of those promoted from the ranks of their veteran troops, than the new levies can be supplied with military ability from the law offices, and farms, aud workshops of civil life. It would be a gross act of folly not to say wickedness to throw masses of troops into an enemy's country, undrilled, undisciplined, and under leaders who never saw a picket posted or a line of battle formed. And we do hope it won't be done. There is reason in all things. It would not do to strip the old regiments of their officers, aud no Governor of a State would think ot doing that; but to forbid the promotion of a few meritorious officers to give the aid of their experience to the raw troops, is a freak of genius that is inexplicable to a common mind.

The drovers thought that the market of last week was a very hard one for them, aud ro it was; but it was not so hard as this has been by many thousand dollars; and of all the markets since the worst of last fall we have seen none in which were so many "blue" drovers as the sales of this week have produced. The Otterings of this week were loo large for dog-day weather, especially after the plethoric offerings of last week. This has contributed to the losses of the week more, probably than any other cause. The bet sales were made on Monday, which is as a general rule, the best day for sales of good cattle, but prices started at a decline and were sold at very low rates. Some very good steers bringiug only $7 per 100 lbs. The average rate showing a decline of fully 25c per 100 lbs. At the low prices the stock was all sold, but toward the last it was a very hardbusiues to crowd them oft at anything like a decent price. The tine quality of the Otterings was quite noticeable this week. There were many large fat cattle which would be more seasonable in cold weather. The most desirable cattle for this season being those which will wejgh about 700 lbs. We quote: Premium $ (3 Prime 7 75 8 00 Medium to good 7 00a 7 50 Poor 5 Wig 6 50 General selling prices 6 75 7 50 Average -7 00 II.CB cows. The market continues overstocked with poor cows, which are dull, and sell at very low prices, some having been sold as low as $10 each. There is more inquiry for good cowi, but prices are unchanged. At the close the pens are full of stock aud the drovers are anxious to realize. We quote: Best cows per head $35 -3 40 Oood do do 30 Fair do do 25 Cotn'n do do 15(520
TEAL CALVBS Are not quite so active as last week; the low price of beef and the increased supply of sheep diminishes the demand for veal, and prices are a little lower, some sales of very fair calves baring been made at 4c. We quote Good and extra qualities per lb 5 52 cts Other qualities do 3a'41 cts smear Are in good demand, and with increased receipts prices are fully sustained; fair to good sheep sell at 44c, and 434c for fat ones. Some large fat sheep brought $6 per head. Lambs are selling at 4t52'c per lb. The market closes 6rmly and nearly bare of stock. We quote: Sheep per head at $2 755 75 Lambs 2 755 50 SWINK. The hot weather and enormous receipts have
