From the Richmond Sentinel, 12/2/1863

Still They Come. - The Petersburg cars yesterday brought down five hundred and ten Yankee prisoners, captured around Knoxville, Tenn., by Longstreet's forces a short time since. They were quartered in Barrett's old factory on Main street, for the present. Among the lot were six or eight officers. Some of them were destitute of hats and shoes, and other appeared as if they had seen no water for a long time previous to their arrival here.
