MILITARY BUDGET. eo THE SITUATION IN KENTUCKY. ‘We entertain no apprebensions that the dis- unionists can make serious headway in Kentucky, though they may be able to bold their own there for a week or two. So general is the determina- tion of the Unionists of the State to rid it of their armed presence, as that by that time they will be able to drive them into Tennessee; to which end they are rapidly arming and organizing Wedo not believe that Buckner will dare to attempt to advance further into the interior of the State than bis present position—Sowling Green. MistouRt. Price’s army Is not surrounded by Seigel’s, Lane’s and other Union troops at Lexington, as alleged by the telegraph. On the contrary, thore forces are days’ marches from Lexington; while Price has divided his force, and both divisions are already away from there, carrying off their plunder, including perbapsa million and a balf dollars in specie found in Mulligan’s possession end In the Lexington banks. HONOR TO WHOM HONOR Is DUE. We see It stated in a New York paper that not a single one of the wealthier citizens of Washing- ton bas shown a disposition to sustain our Gov- ernment by contributing to the loan or to the vol- snteer fund This ts not etrictly true. We bear that Messrs. J C. & H. A. Willard have sub- scribed for $160,000 of the Treasury loan, (just double the amount taken by Wm. B. Astor,) and donbt not that other prominent citizens design to come forward in a similar spirit. We cannot say ‘that the men of means bere have done much for the District volunteers. Mr. Jobn C. Rives isan bonorable exception. having contributed.8100 in gold to the District Regiment, and expressed his readiness (o contribute that amount per month, if necessary WHAT THSY WANT IT For. It bas been denied that the ‘tron taken from the Baltimore and Obio Road west of Martinsburg, by the Rebels, was to be used for the extension of the Manassas Gap Road from Strasburg to Win- chester. It Is probable that it is for the comple- tion of the Federicksburg and Gordonsville Road, a defunct road, partly graded two or three years age, but which it now may be considered of some importance te finish, as it would enable the Con- federates to receive heavy reinforcements of troops, if néeded, at Aquia Creek or Fredericks. burg, at shert notice, by the connections at Gor. d@onsville with the Orange and Alexandria, Cen- tral, and Mantssas (iap—giving them all the con- nections to readily concentra‘e large bodies of treops. A MISTAKE. The New York Herald, in giving the names of the Rebel army officers, puts down Brigadier Gen. James L.. Kemper as commanding Kemper’s battery. The Kemper Battery Is the Alexandria Artillery, commanded by Captain K. Kemper, of Alexandria, son of Colonel Kemper, of the Alexandria Academy. Brigadier Gen. Kemper is a citizen of Madison county, formerly and now a Delegate to the General Assembly from tbat county ; was an officer in Mexico; a generous- hearted gentleman, but bitterly opposed to the continuance of the Union with the North. OFFICERS’ SERVANTS The attention of all concerned is called to par- agraph 762 ‘‘Revised Regulations for the Army,” which Is as follows: * Private servants not soldiers will not be al- Tomet to wear, the uniform of apy.corpe. of the Bim a certificate from the cficer who employs him, verified, for regimental officers, by the alz- nature of the Colonel ; for other officers under the rank of Colonel, by the chief of their corps or de- pertment.’’ We publish the above at Provost Marshal Gen. Porter's request. WHO HE is. General Chapman, of the Virginia army, is Gen A. A. Chapman, of Monroe county, one of the Delegates to the last General Assembly, and for- merly a member of Congress from the Greenbrier district of Virginia, well known in Wasbington, a thorough disunionist and great admirer of Henry A. Wise, who he pressed in the Virginia Convention in opposition to R. M.T. Hunter, for Virginia’s choice as the candidate for the Presi dency before the Charleston Convention. PAYMASTER GALLAGHER Paymaster Gallagher having given satisfactory security to the government for the settlement of bis accounts, embracing a long cruise in the East Indies, services at the Naval Academy rnd at the Washington Navy Yard, has been released from arrest.

She ‘wes not fred into coming up the river, nor was there any news of interest from the flotilla The Herbert came up yesterday evening, and Teports all quiet down the river—no vessel having been fired into since Thursday, on which day one or two schooners were fired upon, they receiving no damage, however. One schooner, loaded with hay for Alexandria, caught a shot in ber cargo on deck, which the crew now bold as trephy. Yesterday morning the battery at Freestone Point fired several shots, supposed to be as a test of range. One rified shell was thrown over upon the Maryland shore, = distanse of about four miles The Planet, sunk Wednesday night by the Del- ware, lies in deep water, between Aquia Creek and Cedar Point, with only about three feet of her smokesteck visible She will doubtless be raised, as ber boiler and machinery is quite valuable. The flag ship Yankee, Com. Craven, expected to go down to-day, and join the flotilla. The Baltimore is undergoing some repairs to ber bull, having new planking put on, and her seams caulked. The Mount Vernon, Capt Mitchell,went down yesterday, with several officers, on a reconnoi- sance, but made no new discoveries—the only Datteries seen being those already mentioned.

The Planet had 8 light on ber bow and another at the mast-head, and was sétting the side-lights when the Dela, ware came in contact with us, and cut us nearly intwain. All bands were knocked down by the blow, and one man. who was on the top of the “house setting the side-light, was knocked nd fell a distance of fifteen feet to the lower deck, escaping, however, with only a sprained ankle Delaware (her officers say) supposed ‘we were lnying at anchor. and boreaway towards Sean us, aod endeavored to cross our bow, and atthe y amegone the get rng away from puttli belm pow goes Be the neniatig to nelify ing steamer that we were uxder tended to to the ri; £ low.
