Brownlovy,s Son.

A letter from Shelbyville, Tenn, in the Mo-
bile Advertiser, says:
The most daring and dashing of the cavalry
leaders on the Yankeeside in Middle Tennes-
see, is Colonel Brownlow, of Knoxville. He
is young, rather hansome, great dandy and
lady's man, and, like his father, gas pipe or
blow-hard Of the most terrific description His
Lieutenant Colonel is Andy Johnson's SON
two nice young men for a small teaparty, truly!
Though commanding a regime ent, Brownlow is
nearly always out at the head of small scouting
parties, trying to ambuscade our boys, and leav-
ing saucy messages in writing for them at houses
on the neutral ground. In ono of the messages
about a month ago, he offered $4,000 if 100
Of the best men of Paterson's regiment would
come out and fight him and 100 ofhis men on
open ground. Col. Patterson refused to al
low this braggadocio to be noticed; but Lieut..
May offered to come out with eighty men and
meet him ont, just for the fun of tae thing.
Brownlow didn't accept; and ever since then
May has been trying to catch .Brownlow, and
Brownlow to catch May. May very nearly sue
ceeded one day: He got on Brownslow's trail
and came up with him, their parties being
equal in number. After brief carbinic and
Plstolonic interchange, Brownlow and his men
fed, and May and his party pursued. Nav
took individually after Brownlow, but the latter
had too feet horse; he, however, left his cap
and telescope on the road, and May now has
them as keepsakes.

were followed to their resting place by his af-
fectionate scholars, and his brethren of the

JACKSON, June 24.-Several private letters,
received from Vicksburg, dated June IL, state
that the utmost feeling of confidence exist in
their ability to resist any assault; that our en-
tire loss, including Wednesday, fight, is e25:.
Among the killed is COL Garrett and Capt.
Gould; Of the 5Oth Alabama. The shot from
Grants batteries never injured one--many, 90

ladies come out Of their houses at night to wit
ness the bombardment, which is represented as
being perfectly grand. All concur in the state
ment that the garrison is bountifu1ly supplied
with provisions. Full rations are still issued.
There was heavy firing in that direction last
night at 1oo'clock, and still continues this
morning.
Gen. Taylor had a skirmish with q small
force of the enemy at Richmond, La, ON the

The news fem Vicksburg and Port Hudson
continues encouraging. With the former we
have reason to believe Gen. JOHNSTON has COM
munication, SO as to enable him to act efficient
ly when the proper time arrives. The numer-
GUS repulses of the Yankees must tend to cool
their ardor. Their situation cannot be COM
Portable one. We can only wish it was thou

toquench their thirst, and the heat SO intense
as to consume their vile carcasses. From the
