The Richmond Sentinel has the following from East Tennessee : Gen. Thomm, having transferred a portion of his army to Kooxville. and united it with Gilleto, is said to be moving in the direction of Virginia line.

The expedition ia accompanied by an engineer corps ol 2.000 men, who are engaged in rebuild ing the railroad as fast as the enemy marches communications with the base at Knoxville will thn-be kept up.
