Skirmishing in Kentucky.

--The Knoxville Whig. of Saturday, contains the following:

‘ "We are informed by Orderly Sergeant Haley, who arrived here yesterday from Cumberland Ford, that there was a sharp skirmish on Monday last between a detachment of Col. Brazelton's cavalry, who were returning from an expedition to Williamsburg, Ky., and a party of Lincolnites. The skirmish occurred near Boston, the enemy being in ambuscade on the side of the road, and across the river on the other side, when they opened fire on our cavalry. Four of the Lincolnites were killed, and one taken prisoner. Col. Brazelton himself was at the head of the detachment. The Lincolnites were completely routed; but owing to the thickness of the laurel bushes on the mountain, it was impossible to pursue them.
