Hon. | Jobn A. Gurley, of Obio, will probably be ap- pointed Governor. A large number of zentie- men connected with the mining interests of © Arizona have recommended Colonel Edward E. Oross, of the Sth New Hampshire Volun- teers, for militsry commander. He has resided in Arizona fer three years. S7The Revels are reported to have again invaded Keatucky. The Louisville Journal thinks that the invasion is a formidable one, but the Democrat discredits the idea that any large pamber of Rebels are in the State. It is also denied by the military authorities. S71 is announced in the Revel papers that Gea. Price is te succeed Holmes in the com- macd ofthe Rebels in Arkansas, and that large reimforcements will take the place of the demoralized and thinned regiments of the latter. ——$— —______ Personat.—Gen.
