Cannonading az PIttsburg.

CAIRO, April 25.-The steamers Belle o.
Memphis and Choctaw, from Pittsburg Land
ing Thursday morning, arrived last night. They
were fred into thirty-tive miles below Pittsbpre
by hand Of guerrillas, from behind dwellings
on the left bank Of the Tennessee river. The
Choctaw received seven shots; her mate was
killed. The Belle of Memphis received two
shots; negro boy on board was mortally
wounded.
The roads at Pttsburg are improving. Skir.
mishing between pickets continues.
The river here is still rising. The lower
Mississippi has feariully overAowed, causing
the greatest loss OF property ever known.
Passengers by the Belle Of Memphis say thai
at Savannah they heard heavy firing in the d.
reehon of Pittsburg. The oannonading was
brisk, and gradually grew louder, being heard
for miles this eide Of Savannah. The belief
that general engagement was brought on
10 strengthened by the fact that on Wednesday
significant preparations were made by Genera
Halleck for an attack.
Our gunboats on the Tennessee had effected
a passage over Muscle Shoals, and penetrated
ss far as Huntsville, Ala, where they capture,
quantity of rebel commissary stores.
