In addition to the foregoing

from the Knoxville Begister

During the night, BueH's

but our troops running short

ot ammunition were compelled
to fall back upon Corinth
which at last accounts they
were doing ia good order, hav.
ing taken a large additional
i treaicd to their gunboats on
Monday, and there Has been
no fight since.
The prisoners taken on Sun
day were sent under guard to
wards Corinth. Buell sent a
Drigade of cavalry to attempt
to re cue them, but a body of
Gonfederate cavalry and artil
lery from Corinth, not only
li ubtrated the movement, but
captured the whole of the bri

and saw him meeting with his
command who were brought in
prisoners after him He made
a speech on Monday night to
his fellow captives. Several
of the flags borne by the pris
oners were inscribed,
TO CORINTH OR HELL."
Our troops were compelled
to abandon a portion of the
cannon captured on Sunday
we presume, owing to their
crippled condition, but spiked
tht-m before leaving them.
We are greatly disappointed
that, after keeping our paper
back several hours, we have
very little additional news-
From a dispatch to the Knox
ville Register, dated the 10th.
we extract the following items:
It is asserted positively that
Buell was killed. Tbe enemy
only attacked on the second
day when reinforced, and was
at every point whipped back
under cover of their gunboats
Gea. Prentiss told Beauregard
that he "had sixty thousand
of the flower of the Federal ar
my, but that he could not whip
one hundred and twenty-five
thousand Confederates.' Gen.
, turegard replied that he
i in the fight only thtrty
e thousand, and could whip
t i Federals three to one one
