A special to the Tribune from Cairo says
the steamer Isettea, from the Tennessee
river yesterday, reports that is the gunboats
Tyler and Lexington, accompanied by the
transport Isetta were approaching Pitts
burgh, eight miles above Savannah, on the
Tennessee river: they were fired upon by a
battery located on bluff overlooking the
river. The gunboats replied for a half an
hour, with shot and shell. At the expira-
tien of that time the .battery was sienced,
and force of eighty marines and infantry
landed, and burned one house. They visited
one of the confederate camps, and were at
tackled again by large force Of rebels, and
compelled to return to the boats.
Our loss is one killed and three missing.
The officers Of the boat represent the ex-
istence of a strong Union sentiment in that
vicinity.
At the election in Savannah for sheriff
on Saturday, the Union ticket received three
hundred and twenty votes, the secession
forty five.

is objectionable.
In these trying times it behoves the p,esi.

thereby enable the nation to assist the exc.

We sincerely hope that he will make it all
right by inserting that the best place to buy
