From the southwest. Atlanta, Nov. 5. --No change in front. A special to the Register, dated Sweetwater, Tenn., Nov. 5th, says: "Gen. Vaughn has returned from Blount county, and reports Saunders at Marysville with 4,000 Yankee cavalry." The pontoon bridges have been removed from London to the Holston river, at Knoxville. Burnside's force is estimated at twenty-three thousand. Gen. Stevenson has collected a large number of beeves and hogs, and immense quantities of wheat.
15,000 Yankees on the march from Cleveland to Benton. Benton is about fifteen miles from Cleveland, and lies on the road (not railroad) leading to Knoxville. It is evident, therefore, that Knoxville is the destination of these troops, who are marching on the south side of the river and of the railroad. The same telegram says that Longstreet has been reinforced by Buckner and another division. We have hopes, therefore, that he may be strong enough to meet the Yankees on equal terms. But our principal hope lies in the celerity of his siege operations. Knoxville being taken he can then turn upon those who came to relieve it. It is probable that the danger of Knoxville may have caused the retreat to Chattanooga, as well as Meade's retreat across the Rapidan. From Benton to Knoxville, through Marysville, the distance is about eighty miles, the road lying altogether south of the railroad. The distance is about the same if the route which crosses the road and river be followed.
From East Tennessee. Morristown, Feb. 1. --Our cavalry now occupy Seviersville, the enemy having retired to Marysville. Our loss in the engagement of the 27th was not as great as reported, being only 125. The weather continues very pleasant.
One hundred dollars reward. --Released from the jail in the county of Charlotte, by the Yankee raiders, on the 25th of June, my man Claiborne, and when last head from was going in the direction of Reams' Station. Claiborne is a mulatto, about five feet high, well set, smiles when spoken to; the only mark or scar recollected is on one of his legs, occasioned by an oxcart wheel having run over it, leaving a bad scar.--I will pay the above reward for the delivery of said negro to me, or secured in any way so I can get him.
