Florida

--Yankees Deserting.--The latest news from Florida is not very favorable to the discipline and integrity of the Yankee army under Seymour. A dispatch from the operator at Baldwin, dated 17th, says: ‘"The news from the front this morning is that eighty-five Yankee deserters came in early this morning, and they report that forty more are on the way."’ The operator at Waldo reports that the Yankees at Palatka are also deserting fast.--About fifty had skedaddled from their lines, and negro pickets are stationed in every direction to keep the clan of robbers together.--Savannah Republican.
