: BRowNLow VS. PILLow.-We learn from
the Knoxville Hhig, that Gen Gideon Pill
How, who So distinguished himself in the
Mexican war, by his ditch on the wrong
side has been showing off his military
genius in an effort to "chain up the Mis-
sissippi river The account of this last
stroke of generalship is given by Parson
Brownlow, who says:
"Previous to Gen. Pillow being super
ce ded by Bishop Polk, he went to New
Orleans and procured a huge chain-cable,
costing him $25, 900. and brought it to Mem
phis to blockade the river, by stretching it
over, and resting it upon the buoys! The
cable, car, iaqe aud work cost about $780,
600 The first big tide that came, bringidg
down the usual amount Of trees, logs and
drift wood swept away his cable and it's
supporters, as any fatbnat captain might
have informed the Confederate authorities
would certainly be the case.
This is no idle tale, but sober reality
and we shall send the account OF this affair

WASHINGTON, Oct 1.-THE Tribune
correspondence says the occupation of Lew
insrille by Gen. Mcclellan was complete pos
session of the line of hills running north ant
south along the river from Great Falls. Thi'
second line, which is about two miles from
the first, is more properly one of operations
than defense. We now threaten the commu
nication of the rebels on the upper Potomac
while slight advance will entirely cut then
off.
Recent investigations show there are not
and have not been rebel fortifcations on the
Potomac at any other place than Aquis
Creek. There are three batteries of twenty
guns, which are designed to defend the ter
minus of the Great Southern Railroad, ant
protect Richmond and fredericksburg ant
not to hinder navigation. The guns at Free
stone Point, which fortnight since aredup
on our vessels, causing fear that the navga
ton was stopped, was a field battery. Yes
