From Tennessee.

--On Sunday, 9th instant, three regiments of the left wing of Rosecrans's army advanced on and attacked Sparta. They were gallantly repulsed by Gen. Forrest, who had but one regiment of Tennesseeans. The enemy made three distinct charges, in each of which they were repulsed, and were finally routed, leaving their stead upon the field. Our information is that the enemy impressed from citizens buggies, carriages, and wagons to carry their wounded towards Nashville. Our loss is reported to be only six. One of the enemy's regiments engaged is said to have been the 4th regulars.

On the Wednesday of last week two regiments of Yankee cavalry appeared at Huntsville, remaining but a short time, and disappearing without doing injury to people property.

Judge Robert L. Caruthers has been elected Governor of Tennessee, in place of Gov. Harriss.
