From Tennessee.

--From a gentleman from Tennessee, who was in our office this morning, we have learned several interesting facts in regard to that State. The crops are excellent, and far in advance of the same date last year. From appearances now, the farmers anticipate cutting thirty bushels of wheat to the acre, and the reaping will commence in a short time. He states that the reported strength of the Union feeling is decidedly false, and facts given by him prove it conclusively to our mind. Volunteers by the thousands are tendering their services to the Governor. Gov. Harris made a requisition for three thousand men, and forty-seven thousand responded. The war feeling is running high, and one hundred thousand volunteers could be had, if necessary.--Montgomery Adv., 18th.
