Intense stlpidifT of General Pnlow.

Correspondence Cincinnati Times.
The fortifcations Of Memphis, erected
here at the commencement Of the rebellion
BY the redoubtable Gideon J. Pillow, have
caused us no little amusement. The prin-
eipal are two earthWorks, one near the old
Navy Yard, and the other in the middle
Of the wharf, so located that every shot or
shell thrown from our gunboats must have
gone directly into buildings in the rear,
and have set the town on FIRE in few min
utes.
Tie idea Of building forts Immediately
in front Of city, to prevent the enemy
from wasting any Of his shot is a brilliant
idea that may have been conceived before,
hut had never been carried out until the
dste and generation Of the Napoleonic
Gideon.
Pillow is too great an ass even for Sc
cessna, and he is now in military disgrace
at Oxford, Mississippi, very indignant at
the ingratitude Of Republics, and violent
agsinst BeauTegsrd, who recently refused
to see Gideon when he sought an interview
with the Secession chief.
Pillow even carried his folly so far as to
close the foot Of the streets leading down
to the river with large planks, believing
thatWonld prevent the Yankees from in
Fadingp the city. What an irrepressible
simpleton he must bel Still, he has given
us the only recent instance in which Mem
phis is known to have aplanked up and
is peradventure entitled to some credit
therefor.

GaHant naval RxpIois.

A singular and gallant exploit Of Com
mander James NJ. Watson, United States
NAVY, has been published. The mail steam
er Northern Light, which left Aspinwal
28d Of May last for New York, when, about
the latitude Of Wilmington, N. c., fell in
with the schooner Agnes H. Ward. She
showed the colors, and answered to the
steamers hail, " from Washington, North
Carolina Here was a vessel which had
evidently run the blockade. With a glass
the ecotton piled on her deck was visible
But the steamer was not q man-of-war.
What was to be done? Fortunately,
among the passengers was Commander
James H. Watson, Of the United States
Navy, native Of the State Of Virginia, on
his return from service on the Pacific
coast, one of those naval officers, who,
though born on Southern soil have not for
gotten that the United States is their eoun-
try. He told the captain Of the steamer to
furnish him boat and crew, and he would
take the responsibility as a naval officer,
ofhosrding and taking the prize. A best
was lowered, manned by three or four men
unarmed. Commander Watson took his
seat and they we're soon alongside the
schooner. HWho are you ~ "Seeesh."
"Come aboard and bring your hag' was
the conversation. The rebel master obey
ed, descended into the boat with his en-
blem, and be was Uncle Sans prisoner
A prise crew was then put aboard, haw-
ser got out, and the schooner towed into
New York harbOr, where she proved to
have run the blockade laden with eighteen
bales Of cotton, one hundred and eighty
barrels Of turpeRtine, and some tobacco.
