heard in the direction of Camp Wild Cat, and that it was the general opinion of all that General Hanson was engaged with the enemy, in the fear, or that the two East Tennessee regiments had fallen out, and that a battle was going on between the enemy and themselves. The regiments referred to are those who made their escape into Kentucky, aided by their leader, Andy Johnson. God grant that it may be so. Information is just received here that large reinforcements are marching on Camp Smith, in Floyd county — what we call here the Sandy road. We need help in that quarter, and Mr. Editor, you will render your country great service by aiding the Commander, now in your city from this section, in procuring arms and men for this camp. If this camp is broken up by the enemy, Tazewell will be in great need of the nine companies she now has in the Floyd Brigade. It is thought that the camp will be attacked in a few days; if so, you shall hear from your correspondent, Highlander.
