The enemy reported in East Tennessee.

The Lynchburg Republican, of yesterday, men a report with reference to the advance of a body of Yankee cavalry upon Bristol, the of the Virginia and Tennessee Railroad. There rumors allege that the enemy took possession of Morristown, Tenn., on Monday, and that night advanced within 19 miles of Bristol destroying the telegraph wires in different places, and committing other depredations. It is not thought that the raid a regularly organized body of the enemy, but of a portion of the traitors and tories in that section of Tennessee.
