From Tennessee.

--A correspondent, willing from Little Tennessee river on the 13th, says:

‘ Mr. Salter, who kept the Lamar House, was started for Camp Chase. He escaped near Clinton, and is here at Gen. Wheeler's headquarters. He reports the enemy's entire force at 14,000 men — that they are so much frightened that the mere approach of our troops will stampede them.

’ Twenty thousand hogs are en route from Kentucky for, Knoxville. Five thousand have been collected in East Tennessee and are at Knoxville.

One thousand wagons are coming over the mountains, loaded with clothing, &c., for Wheeler's boys.

Burnside's Assistant Adjutant-General wrote a letter to his quartermaster in Kentucky, stating that they had only ten days rations on hand, and God only knew where the next would come from. This letter is in the hands of Gen. Wheeler.

Gen. Vaughn is with Gen. Wheeler. Troops in fine spirits. Southern people hail our return with delight. Be of good cheer — all is well.

The Lamar House is used for a hospital. Seventeen hundred Yankee sick are there now. --Enemy's recruits consist of two regiments, half-clad and unarmed.

Burnside's advance above Knoxville is at Morristown.
