ap and what is called the Grape Vine Creek Road. Colonel Williams is now in the vicinity of, if not immediately at, the Pound Gap--General Marshall is at the Gap of the Louisa river opening from Piketon into Tazewell county. Gentlemen of intelligence just from that country entertain no fear of the perfect feasibility of our holding the mountain; and General Marshall only wishes such small reinforcements of men and arms as will enable him to push through and proceed against Nelson. Paris, Kentucky, is more distant from Piketon than Wytheville, Virginia, and the circuitous route taken by the news of Nelson's victory, is sufficient to disprove the story. These magnificent falsehoods have become a systematic business in Kentucky, intended to suppress the secessionist feeling. When the news of our victory at Springfield reached that State their journals put "rebels" for "Federals," and "Federals" for "rebels," in the accounts of the battle, and spread the counterfeit news all over

Fishing Creek, five miles west of Somerset. Dr. John Jackson, without provocation, shot and severely wounded a Minnesota soldier, who went to his house, near Springfield, to buy hay. Jackson was arrested, taken to Lebanon, and probably tried by military law. He was a Douglas elector of the Ashland district, and a brother of him who shot Ellsworth.

On Saturday evening, it being ascertained that Rogers in tended leaving Paris upon such an errand, the soldiers guarding the bridge at the jail there were directed by the U. S. Deputy Marshal to arrest him as he crossed the bridge, which order they complied with. Rogers, being in his buggy and demurring to the arrest, caused some delay.

The enemy not at Paris, Ky., --What he is Doing, &c.--A Bowling Green correspondent of the Union and American, writing under date of January 25th, says: The reported occupancy of Paris by the enemy is incorrect. The Federals are, however, at Murray Calloway county, Ky., only twenty miles distant, but as yet have made no demonstration on Paris. The country between Murray and Paris is represented as being a succession of marshes and swamps, impassable, at this season for heavily laden transports or artillery. What object the Yankees have in the occupancy of Murray, whether intended as a rendezvous for the purpose of collecting troops to destroy Tennessee river bridges and the Memphis and Ohio Railroad, or what not, cannot be devised. Any movement in the direction of the Tennessee line will certainly be thwarted. Green river bridge, although not entirely destroyed, has been seriously damaged, so much so that trains do not pass over it; a few days, however, will suffi
