The invading force is variously estimated at from 3,500 to 10,000 men. The object is probably two-fold: first, and mainly, as a diversion, so as to distract Rosicaass, and thus stop his further advance into the heart of the Confederacy and, in the noxt place, to get supplies.

The rebels in front of RosECEass are failing back with tbe object, as they say, cf drawing him further from his base of supplies. A correspondent of the Mobile Tribune writes It ia our object not only te draw he enemy ad far aa powble from hid supplies, but alao to seiect on our part the strongest strategical positions near the rising eminences of 'he Cumbeiland mountains.

The Wheeling iftu.r.CLr, of Thursday, luentiens the return of Mr. Bluss, one 194 political prisoners, who have ivng been confined in Richmond. Thsy are principally citizens of Virginia, Kentucky andXecnes-Eee. "We give the concluding paragraph of the article: Mr.

Blosa says that no one can form th slightest conception of th misery to which he and kia follow prisoners were subjected. Quite a number of loyal Virginians are still confined in the Penitentiary at hard labor. These th authoritie? refuse to release, th Confederates having determined to hold them for prisoners similarly confined by our government. Mi. Bloes says that for lour inocthb, ha and his companions lived upon mule and meat, the most which was rotten and stunk so badly that he could smell it a square distant, lie Las helped to put men in the coffins who died Iron: actual starvation.

Many of his companion were so badly sfflioted with the scurvy, that their teeth could be easily pulled out witd tne fingers. Those who could not provide themselves wuh blankets were compelled to elep upon the hard floor cf the leu6y, filthy pmon. Mr. Blots says to Confederate army is aow upon quarter rations, which statement is verified by the Richmond papers. It is common talk in Richmond that tbe people in various stations el the State are actually starving for th necessaries of life The Invasion 1 Kenmckr.

Th situation in Kentucky is imminent. Burnside with hia 15,000 men is on the ground not one day too soon.

XL Magnolia is the largest river boat ever built in these waters, carrying nsariy 8,000 bales of cotton. It is probably the in tention to surprise the rebels by a night attack, and captura or destroy the transports and unfinished gunboats. This achievement plaeea thrabt ovmmuziioation between icks-barg and their rear wholly ia our power, and if successfully executed, mast be a telling blow against that rebel stionghold.
