Latest from cairo.

ne eoHVersed on yesterday with very inteili>
gent lady and gentleman who had just arrived from,
Illinois, having left Cairo on the goth instant and
derived from them some interesting information
later than any we have yet had from that section
How they ran the blockade we shall not disclose
as others, sYmPathising with the rehes may de-
sire at some ruture time 70 come the same parious
Fonte as refugees from King Abraham dora lnions
These parties have lived in Southern Illinois for
some months, and are returning 50 Louisiana
their former Stats Of residence.
They assert that the new Federal gunbosts had
Tot arrived from St Louis as stated they not being
yet completed, and were not expected until the mid
die Of next month, or later.
It appears that after Fremont was superceded
the work on them ceased owing to a stsEpede
among the mechanics, VINO refused to labor with4
out prospect Of pay. Fremont mado the contracts
for their construction.
But two gunboats were on the Ohio river in err
vice. the one at Csiro and the other Paducsh-the
same that have recently been paying semi-occ aston
al visits to Columbus
We further learn that there is no doubt of the
withdrawal of Hunters army from Springfield, Nc.
with the view of their transfer to Caro- as mart
OF the invading force down the Mississippi valley
The troops from Cape Girardesu, Birds Point and
even Springfield, (I.) were also TO be disps tched
TO the same point.
The general talk among officers and men was
tnat the army at Cairo was to be increased to over
one hundred thousand strong before any ad vance
movement is made on Columbus The force there
cow is not over l5,0OO that at Paducah about 0OO
but feinforeements were going in very rs pidy |
Inc plan OF the attack 1t was whispered amoIlg the
knowing Ones would be to come down on both sides
Of the river simultaneously, and completely sur
round our army, cutting of communication and
supplies from the south by both river and rail.
Gen. Grants wife, who went over with our. in |
formGnts in a boat to Paducah on the 2Oth instant |
alluded to this expedition and sad the expects ton
OF her husband was that Columbus would be ia.
ken, and that by May next the whole rebellion
would be wiped outs
=, recruiting was going on very slowly all through
the Northwest, only those volunteering who were
forced by penury to do so.
Finances were in desperately bad condition
provisions bringing little or nothing and mo ney
scarce
Our tntormants think that there is a steadily
growing spirit Of opposition among the masses TO
