From Cairo.

Special Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune.
Cairo. Aug. IL.
The six twenty four Founders have
been landed from the steamer Louisiana
at Birds Point, and are within the en-
trenchments.
The rebels made another attempt to de-
stroy the trestle work on the Cairo a. Full
ton Railroad. 1t is now in the possession
of the Federal troops. The entire line to
Charleston is being put in order.
1t is rumored that the rebels have ad-
vanced six miles from New Madrid.
BY this last arrival of heavy guns the
works at Birds Point are made most
complete and they could be held against
any force the rebels could bring against
them. All apprehensions of an attack
are past. and it is to other portions of the
State that we must look for active opera
tions for some time TO come.
