General Pillow has no apprehension of being Overcome — Moore troops needed, &c.



Memphis, Nov. 28.
--General Pillow has telegraphed here that he will hold Columbus, Kentucky, against any force the Federals can bring. He wants a larger force for his right wing and in his rear, and at Fort Pillow. He will not receive an unorganized force; and all who come must be prepared to submit to military discipline and government.

A dispatch from General Pillow announces that he has raised the blockade on shipments South of produce, stock, army supplies, subsistence and forage.
