when they were relieved by Stoneman's
command
Just before the advance of Couch's
corps, heavy firing and dense smoke on
the left indicated that Franklin was adj
vancing, and had already engaged the
enemy's right flank To open commu
nicatiOn with him, therefore, Wilcox de-
tached his division under Burns, and
sent it to the left by the edge of the
river, with instructions to advance IN
der cover of the river bank, until he
could place himself in close proximity to
Franklin's right After hard fighting,
COUGHS division being unable to carry
the rebel works, the tremendous fire
from their works rendered it necessary
for them to retire, which they did, when
the order had been given for the third
time.
1t was now dark. and the division fell
back to its original position, after being
six hours under fire
After severe fighting on Franklin's
left, with varied success until dark, the
relative position of our forces was about
the same as in the morning, except thst
we had gained half mile or more on
the left.

A Brilliant Cavalry Dssh.

New YORK, Dec. IA.
A special to the Tribune from Nash
vile dated the 18th says: Brigadier Gen
eral Stanley returned this evening from
a da shing enterprise into Dixie.
He left our front yesterday by the
Franklin pike with a strong force of cav
airy, and disturbed the enemy early in
the day, fighting considerable force,
driving them across the country. He
made dash at Franklin this morning,
and was sharply resisted by the enemy
who fred from houses.
Colonel Wyncoops 9TH Pennsylvania
cavalry charged brilliantly through the
town, and drove the rebels. After des-
troying the Touring mills and other pro-
perty useful to the enemy, the expedition
returned only losing one man.
Nine rebels including one lieutenant,
were killed ten wounded, twelve prison
oners, and a large lot of horses we're cap
tured
1t was discovered that there was no
large force of rebels as far west as
Franklin.
There is heavy force of rebels near
NoIinsville, another near Mlrfreesboro
and considerable force this side of Stu
arts Creek
There was no enemy at Lebanon.
Morgan is about promiscuously, with
5000 men.
The enemy is waiting an attack. The
entire rebel force does not exceed 10000.
The Murfreesboro Rebel Banner of
yesterday, admits the loss at Huntsville,
in two rebel regiments of over so men.
Bragg sent |, 1872 paroled Union prison
ers to our lines yesterday, mostly cap

Little Fighting on Sunday.
HEADQUARTERS ARMY PoToMAC,
nao II I1.QO

Dec. I4-l1:30 AN
There is no fog to day; the sun is
shining bright, with strong breeze.
At daylight this morning there was a
heavy fire of artillery and infantry in
front of the first line of works, where Sum
ner and Hooker we're engaged yesterday
The fire slackened about an hour after
wards, and was heard only at intervals
until noon. ....s fs-. .ttE5-
The same occurred in front of Frank
Inns division down the river. The object
of both parties was evidently to feel the
other.
During last night and this forenoon
the rebels have considerably extended
their works and strengthened their posi-
ton. Large bodies of troops are now to
be seen where but few were to be found
yesterday.
Those killed yesterday, while charging
the enemys works, remain where they
fell. When attempting their removal
last night the rebels opened fire with in
fantry, but the wounded have all been
removed from the field, and all the dead
obtained are now being buried.
The indications are that no decisive
battle will be fought to-day, unless the
enemy should bring on the engagement
which they will not probably do.

MORNING DISPATCHES.
Nothing String on sunday.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 14-Up to mid
night no intelligence of importance had
been received from the army. There
was occasional firing during the day, but
of little consequence in results.
The taking of several rife pits yester-
day evidently gave rise to the report that
the first line OF the enemys works had
been taken
A number of wounded arrived to-
night and were conveyed to the several
hospitals. Another boat load is on the
way.
The fighting in our immediate. front
and right and beyond Fredericksburg,
was carried on by Summers corps.
Shortly after nine clock the I'd corps,
Gen. Couch moved out from the upper
part of the city, with a strong detach-
ment of skirmishers. The enemy yield
ed gradually, though they contested our
progress with stubbornness,and for some
time the rattle of musketry was inces-
SAINT.
At the same time this movement COM
menced the batteries of the division sta
toned on the bluff crossed the river and
opened with she'll to cover our advance
The rebel infantry having fallen back
to their line of intrenchments and rife
pits, their batteries opened with rapid
fire, upon our columns, which had now
come to a temporary halt, awaiting the
result of the artillery fighting.
For some time our artillery on the
bluffs kept up a heavy fire on the rebel
batteries, with much better success.
The batteries on Taylors Hill, nearly
opposite Falmouth, were finally silenced.
during this time the rebel artillery was
almost entirely devoted to shelling our
advance troops.
Hancocks division had the advance,
supported by the other divisions of the
corps, while the ninth corps, Gen. Will
cox, remained under arms in town, in
readiness to advance. Soon after, the
whole corps deployed into line of battle,
and moved forward to attack and storm
the rebel right batteries, while from the
enemy's works terrible shower of she'll
grape and schrapnel tore through their
bleeding ranks. Notwithstanding which
they steadily pushed on to the rifle pits
within short distance of the first line
of entertainments From the former
they drove the rebels, making prisoners
of some, while the remainder took refuc q
behind the earthworks. This was accom-.
plished after most heroic and long coE'
tinued efforts under murderous fire.
Unable to hold out against the terri
bic fire they now encountered, they
finally retired in good order, carrying
away their wounded. They fell back tC
their original line of pickets, theirs hold
ing the ground which they first occupied
and which they held until morning

Another Account ofsaturday's Fight

Especial to the Herald
FREDERICKSBURG, Dec Il, A. Mt
is ascertained beyond a doubt that the
rebel force is nearly 200, 900.
jackson commands the rebel right, ex-
tending from Gray's Station to Port
ROYAL. Longstreet has the center, ex-
tending from Gray's Station to the Tele-
graph Road. Lee and Stuart are on the
left
The Heralds dispatch, dated Head
quarters, last night says:
Gen. Frankhn's line moved forward at
sun rise with his right resting on the riv-
err three miles below. Skirmishing COM
menced on the left about daylight, and
soon after rebel battery opened on our
lines, and the 9th New \ ork militia were
ordered to charge, but after fierce
struggle were compelled to retire.
The remainder of the Brigade under
Gen Tyler charged the enemys guns,
when the fight became general on the ex-
treme left
Gems. Mead's and Gibbons divisions
encountered the right of Gen. A. p Hills
command The cannonading was ter
rife, though our troops suffered but lit
tie from the enemy's artillery Gradu-
all the fight extended around to the right.
Hills troops started over the river this
morning, but returned.
Gen. Franklin tonight is opposed to
Stonewall Jackson.
1t is impossible to form an accurate
idea of the loss on either side.
The city suffered terribly from the en-
envy artillery and is crowded with our
men, the front extending but short dis
lance beyond. The fight will probably
be resumed tomorrow.
A balloon has been up all day.
About dark our forces carried the
right crest of the hill, occupied by the
rebels, driving them from the position
with great slaughter.
This evening the rebels have been
Smelling Fredericksburg, endeavoring to
drive our troops out, but without success.
Gen. Burnside is in the city, person
ally directing operations.
The advices from the army state that
Gen Meredith commands a division, and
Col Cutler, of Michigan, commands
Meredith's late brigade.
Adjutant Dodd, who was reported
killed, is uninjured
Gen Howes Division then went in and
then Brooks Division.
About 10 o clock Gen. Sumner 8 troops
engaged the enemy back Of the city when
the battle ragged furiously along the
whole line
The enemy occupying the woods and
hills, had q much more advantageous
position, but were driven back on their
right mile and half early in the day
About noon Gibbon was relieved by
Doubleday and Meade by Stoneman
Afterwards General Newton's Division
moved to the support of the left, and tbs
firing ceased for a while but broke ou
with greater ferceness in the centr;
where our troops were exposed to :
plunging fire from the enemy works OF
the hill along the whole line.
The battle has been fierce all day will
great loss on both sides Tonight eacl
army hold its first position, except ,
slight advance of our left.
Cannonading is still going on, ant
musketry breaks out at intervals quit
fercely.
Bayard was hit in the hip by SOLE
shot, while conversing with Gen. Frank
lin. Several hundred prisoners wer
taken who report that Lees whole arm,
is in that vicinity.
