Special Dispatches to the Cincinnati
Papers.

WASHINGTON, Oct. IG.-La Mountain made
a splendid balloon ascension yesterday from
Clouds Mill, rising 1000 feet and landing at
Blenker's headquarters. His reconnaissance
took in the whole area of the rebel lines.
The President and Mr.. Seward, with the
English, French and Spanish ministers, went
over the river yesterday visiting the fortifca-
tions. To day Capt. Dahlgreen, with the
steamer Mt Vernon, took Lincoln and Sew
ard 10 Fort Washington, 20 miles down the
river.
Very heavy firing was heard down the
river early ia the afternoon, causing great
excitement in the city. tsE
Last night two of the f1otilla went down to
tow up the vessels which were fired at In
passing the rebels kept up terrific storm of
shot and shell. Capt. Foster. of the tug Les
lie, says the batteries must have thrown 160
shot, falling all around them. Six struck in
the water at one time. The schooner Fairfar,
loaded with forage, was riddled, and the car
go of hay set on fire aud sunk. The mizzen
mast was cut away. The Leslie brought up
the other two, and the Pussy brought up
two, all bearing the marks of shot and she'll,
but nothing serious. The rebels wasted their
ammunition certainly. Officers of the fotil-
la say the rebels were determined to sink the
fleet, but with only mile and quarter
range they could not do it. With glass their
line along the river is about five miles. The
upper battery at Cockpit has two guns. A
South Carolina regiment is there and the
Palmetto flag is flying from the battery. Be-
low this are five, next eight, and then four
guns, and among the latter the large rified
gun taken at Bull Run, which is furtherest

The vessels of the fotilla are instructed to

WASHINGTON. Oct. 20.-Nothing new has
been received from the river to-day. Firing
was heard at intervals, which we supposed to
be ut vessels being towed up. The result is
not known. Officers OF the fotilla say the
rebels attempted 10 stretch a chain across the
channel below Cock Pit Point. by fastening
the other end 10 hedge, as formidable OBJ
