More Yankee prisoners.

On Wednesday last the Mayor of Lynchburg received a telegram from Gen. Floyd, requesting him to provide quarters for some two hundred prisoners, recently captured by him at Piketon in Kentucky, and at other points. Preparations were made in accordance with the request, but the intention to send them to Lynchburg was subsequently changed, and they were stopped at Wythville, where they now are.
