Our Cairo dispatches assert that Gen.
Pillow is getting out Of Missouri about as
fast as he can, and taking ell his marauders
back to Memphis. Weare quite prepared
to believe this news. If there is anything
that Pillow is good for beside ditch dig
ging, it is rereating. 1t is pity on the
whole that he did not remain few days
longer. Three well appointed columns OF
Gen. Fremon,'s men were headed towards
him-one at Birds Point, one at Cape Gi-
rardeau, and one at 1roaton-to say moth

Latest accounts from Springfield, Mis-
souri, represent General Lyon as anxious
to finish up his business With >MeCulloch,
and as speedily as possible He had thrown
out his troops in strategetic positions to
invite 5 battle, and his advance guard en-
1oyed skirnish with party Of the reh-
els, LAST Thursday, putting them to fight
as usual. The loss in, this affair, if any, is
not stated. General Lyon relies wholly
upon the discipline, enthusiasm
and efficiency Of his corps, and
upon the service Of his splendid ar
3ille1y. McCulloeh's crowd number some
21,0o0, but are far more formidable in fig.

Especial Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune.} !.
CAIRO. Aug. 12-8P. II.
The rumor brought last night that Pillow
had commenced movement from New Mad
rid, having broken up his camp there on Sat- ;
urda5, is eoutradicted by later news, to-day
that the intended movement has been coun-
ternanded, and the troops at New Madrid are
uoE op the move to Memphis By river. Tie
intelligence first received is believed to be re-
liable, and the 1ater movement is q change In
the rebel plans. Certainly Pillow had procured
tha digging and cleaning Of wells on the
rosd towards Charleston, and had made pro.
vieion for fo1age; and the anticipation Of bis
coming had produced the effect noted in
Charleston in the removal Of it's inhabitants.
II Pillow has gone down instead Of up the
river, 1t nay be that he made the change to
avoid possible interference with lis Aeet- Of
stesmers by the gun boats that he knew had
passed the bar at New Albany.
These gun boats have just arrived here to-
night. They are the Light draught, remodel1ed
steamers Conestoga, A. Q. Tyler, and Le1ipg-
TOE, Strengthened, built lntc compartme nts,
with canlked ceilings, and their bulwarks car
ried up al round with tWelVe inch timber.
Their armament consists Of heary guns, 32's
and 24'6. Lieut.. Phelps, U. 8. n, comes
down in charge of the feet. Commander
Rotge1r, .. 8. n, will arrive probably TO-
night. He Is sca Of Commodore Rodgers.
and is a gallant officer. The arrival of this
