The enemy at Paris, then

--The Memphis Appeal, of the 30th ult., says

‘ that a small detachment of Federal cavalry consisting of sixteen men, made their appearance at Paris, Friday morning. They passed through and about the town, and while there made inquiry for J. B. Lamb, Esq, and — Bruce, formerly President of the Confederate Military Board, and for other prominent citizens. No arrests were made. They returned to their camp, which is about seven milles in a northeasterly direction from Paris. It is thought there is not more than a regiment or two at their camp.

’ On the previous day--Thursday--thirty transport boats were seen to pass up the Tennessee river, loaded with troops.
