tATEST tVAfi NEWS,
AH hearts willjlcap for joy |ot the news of
the great victoryJof the Union men over the
rebels at the late battle In- Kentucky.
'Tlie rebels hnve| placed thcmsielves, with more
or lejss strength, op a line frop (Columbus, Ky.,
tu Symerset, uhetjc the engagement of which
-wo have news took place. Near the latter point,
Zoilicoffer/with rtbout 8,000 infantry, and a
battery, was strongly intrenched in a camp at
at 31 ill Spring, on the southern bank of the
Cumberland .llirpr, opposite , Somerset. , It
secnis some time ago, however, that several
steamboat loads Of supplies had gone up the.
river to him, andithat tho chief purpose of his
presence in that vicinity was tij control the cool
mipjes and pend [supplies to .Nashville. The
region is rich, too, in forage, and he was avoil
ingihiraself of alljtbo resources of bis position.
It became desirable, then, to dislodge him.
ijrig. Gen. Geo. 3Y. . Thomas, commanded the
division of! the Union army just there opposed
to ZullicoScr. It was in camp at Somerset—
which place is the-Capital of Pulaski County,
situated about fivp miles north of the Cumber
land River. This portion.of our forces was di
vided ; Giin. Thomas, with half of it, passed
across the river j and threatened Zollicoifer's
rear, leaving Gen.jSchoepff, with probably from
5,000 to 0,000 mep, in camp. Zoilicoffer, seeing
the impending danger, left his position, crossed
the river, ind attacked Schoepff, on Sunday—
not on Saturday, os it was at first reported.
Thu battle was : desperate and long. The
result wasltbe total route of the rebels. Gen.
Zoilicoffer (was killed, and his body left on the
fialfl whence it whs taken by our men, In the
afternoon lor night of Sunday a combined
indvementfwas made on the Mill Spring camp
hyl Thom.-js and} Schoepff; but before they
reached that point the enemy had fled in dire
confusion, leaving behind camp equipage,
stores, ammunition, everything.
Wc are without satisfactory information con
cerning tbe numbers of the kitted and wounded
onf either side'. The only report which pre
tends to give figures says that tbe rebel loss is
275,,and that the IDth Indiana Regiment on
ouW side lost 75. ilt is stated that bailie Pey
ton was killed, atid the first intelligence re
ceived made it apipear that it was the ex-Con
gr'estman jwho bad fallen ; a subsequent dis
patch, however, sjhows that it was a son of bis,
bearing the same name. Though the losses
aro not definitely set down, it is' understood
that they are very heavy on both sides. There
w4r,e so inany ilnion men of Tennossee in
ScjboeptTs! force whose blood .has long boiled
with rage,at tbo wrongs and insults they have
been coni polled to bear till the moment erttne
tb : strike; that when they were allowed to meet
tlicir country's fofe, they must have fought with
such terrible earnestness as Ao leave behind
them n bloody track.
,‘Wo must expect now to bear of a retreat
fro fit 'Bowling’Green, of a concentration of tho
Rebels at Columbus, of a battle on a great
scfije.tberp, of the .triumph of our arms, and

Friexd Agitator. —’T : s midnight, and a
bright moon is sheding her- silver light down
upon these Sautfiern buttle fields; as 1 fnkeTuly
pen to write the first page in, the history of n
■new year. The campaign has ended,

arrniesiwEich now sfand face't 6'Tactf'ujron'The'
banks ‘of the' Potomac, must soon meet; and
when that meeting come#, it Will leave these
Walleye stained with blood, Ond these hill-tops,

pblitieions can prophesy and speculate, but that
will never do the work, St cun only be dime at
the cannon’s mouth, and with the bullet, and
cold steel, There is a grand movement nowon
foot, and when thiu-orniy is once put in motion
it will not stop this side of Richmond. J- be
lieve if foreign nations will stand neutral, this
rebellion will ho wiped nut, forever, before an
oilier cold winter rolls around. But. the signs
of the times now indicate'that they will- noil;
for already We hear the low growl of the Brit
ish lion from 1 beyond the sen, like the roll'of
distant! thunder, before a stitrin. But in' that
t-ase; ns in this, let os forbear until forbearance
ceases lb bo a Virtue, and then let via again
sound the war-truuipet, and call forth another
half million of meu into the field, and onCe
more show that despotic power that beyond
the scat there is a free spirit that lives, yes, and
will liye when the very name of old England
is forgotten.
One higlit last week, the snow fell about nn
incli deep, and the next morning after it fell, |
one of the most cornicle sights took place, that 1
has transpired in this camp, for some time.— I
Sumo bf the hoys started up- a rabbit—in a
minute, more than 200 young buck-tails were
out for a ch(ise. They formed in line of battle
—threw out their flan tors and'skirmishors', and
tlicti miidc an advance;in a moment, out popped
the little fellow from li plle of brush, then the,
noise commenced.' and of all the sounds I ever
heard, this Was the bpeter, a hundred hounds
could'irt strike the first note. The little fellow
finding himself surrounded on all sides, soon
give up the chase. Another, and another
shared the same fate. ; The hoys then toot them
into a large,’open field, threw out?' their Hank
ers, and then let them go, fur thafun’of taking
them again. This was kept up until the rabbits
were W tired to run, and if any of you ever
saw a drove-of boys after a greased pig, you
can form an idea what kind of fun we had.
- New: year* was a fine and pleasant day, but
a lonely one to the most of us, for our mfnds
went back to other and hnppierfiew years, when
we were surrouaded by'loved one* at homo, or
eliding; over the frozen snow, listening to merry
voices,innd the ginglingof bells, or eating pies
and turkeys. But here, our music was of a
different nature; bum, bum, bom goes the old
base drum, then that old familiar sound ‘’fall
ia for battalion drill." :Snow,\or ,no snow,
mud, or no piud, we must come to it. .
Dr. Humphry is again with the regiment, his
health is good. His presence brought new life
ii;fo the hoys.
' There was a grand flag presentation here
last Saturday afternoon; nnd although the mod
was ankle deep, yet ; the whole reserve corps
was out. IVe were all formed ia order, for a
review ; then the booming of cannons, annouccd
the coming of the speaker, (1. A. Grow. One
company from erich of the regiments that were
fn the battle of Dranestille, then went forth to
receive, their flags, with this insci ption
(‘‘Draneaville, Dec. 20th, 1861,”) inscribed
with letters of gold upon one of the white
striposj, These companies were the only ones
that cduld hear the speaker, which was a great
disappointment to all, for we well knew that;
the occasion was one that would call forth the;
greatest energies of that eloquent defender of
the rights of man; and as I could see him
make bis easy gestures, and swing his old
“stove-pipe,” I'could almost see, his dark eyes;
flash, as be looked out upon that Unconquered
legion, and told them of the nobje deeds they;
had done, and that he, trusted , in Heaven that
the forests would not agiin put ,on their robes
ef green, until cveryjstrips ooritaincda victory
that would be an bonjor, not only to- the proud
old Commonwealth that had sent as furth to
wrestle with this, great evil, but victories that
would “form a bright page in the history of
America, ’ to be read with interest, when we had
passed away. 1 ' J - i

, Oapiof our Buck-tails (Magraff) is • now a
prisoner in Richmond. We supposed tbit he
was shot, but have' since learned that he is in
Richmiona. He Was one day taken, out befori

l Mi4,wint«r,ia,upon us, and thegrand ftt-njof

cannon shot distance of the cncroy- When will
there be ian adjvnnce ? is the question asked
liundreds of tiroes jo iv day. Echo, answers
when 1' Meanwhile, the press teems with con
jectures, and rumora possible, and impossible,
as to the movements and plans of (Jen. McClel
lan ; bow near they are to the. truth', time, alone,
wilt determine. I, for one, give him more cred
it; than.to suppose he will:(illow them to become
common property, however much the 'people
are interested in them. Let the friends!of the
Union have patience, for the work before our
young Chief is one of groat magnitude,jand he
should receive the hearty co-operation o( every
loyal heart. Rome was not built in a day, nor
can an army composed of over half a pillion
of men, be raised and placed upon a footing, to
enable it. to fight a campaign, to a successful
close, without sufficient time he allowed. It is
I a huge machine, which requires a masfor mid
to construct, and put it in operation. Lot the
people wait with patience, and say toj those
who are clamoring for pur advance, and rais
ing the cry of "on to Richmond,” “peace, be
still.” Let them wait the development of plans,
which, if we can believe the rebels themselves,
nro already to felt* The liichmoud
Examiner, tolls its rgudera, that their large ar
my in front of-;"Washington, is becoming thor-.
oughly demoralized, in consequence of McClel
lan's iu&ction* and that it soon will be nq,better
than an armed mob. It complains, bitterly,
the Incompetency of their rulers, and Ipaders,
and "much more in the same strain. All this
comes before the campaign is fairly opejned.’ —
Let thorn ,tremble, fur each succeeding blow
shall be heard, and the folds of the great Union
Bon Con-strictor,'shall gradually tighter), until
ihc monster, secession, is hut a crushed,(shape
less andjbarmless mass. The fights, when they
como, will be desperate; but I hare no doubt
the issue will he in our favor. ’
Our armies are in a good condition, and the
men arc eager L»r the tinac to come when the
leash shall be slipped, and the given to
go. They all say they wish they could have
been with us at Dranesville, By the way, we
have gained quite an enviable notoriety by our
connection with that affair;-.it is regarded hero
as being decidedly the best thing of the war,
so far, and to be a Book-tail is to bo a lion.
The boys are. proud of the confidence placed in
them, and will do. their best to maintain the
position accorded them.
The reserve corps wns reviewed on the sth,
by Gov. Curtin, Gen. McCall and staff; after
whice the regiments that participated in the
fight at Dranesville, were drawn up apd ad
dressed by the Governor, in a short speech, in
which he thanked them ip the name of Penn
sylvania, for their good conduct in that battle,
and said that the word, Dranesviih?, should be
inse ibed pn- their banners. Accordingly, on
yesterday, we had another review* which was
the occasion-of our flags being returned to us.
The wfyjle division pros. djriyK# up in line, and
the banner? were presented by the r llon. G. A.
Grow, who made a few.appropriate Jemqrks.—
