NASHVILLE, March G.-There was fighting
all day yesterday between Van Dorn's COM
mand and a federal force of three regiments
OF infantry, about five hundred cavalry, and
one battery, at Springville thirteen miles
south of Franklin. Col. CoburnS regiments
of infantry were cut to pieces or captured by
the rebel forces. They fought desperately,
but the ammunition became exhausted, and
the tederals, overpowered by superior num-
bers, were either killed or captured. The
cavalry and artillery got off safely No rein
torcement from Gen. Gilbert at Franklin
reached the scene of action. There were
seven regiments of federals at that place. Van
Dorm is reported to have eighteen thousand
men under his command.
LATER.-Further details of the fight at
Franklin, yesterday, have been received.
Five regiments of infantry, and one battery
of the 18th Ohio, with the 9th Pennsylvania
and I'd Michigan cavalry, all under command
of Col. Coburn of the 33d Indiada, advanced
on Spring Hill on the Attn inst. There were
several spirited sklrmshes during the day.
On the 9th movement was apparent, and
during some disorder on our left, they sud-
denly opened on our men with three batteries
from three different points. AT the same time
the enemy appeared also on each flank, in
greatly superior force. The unequal contest
was maintained with great determination with
heavy loss on both sides, and resulted unfor-
tunately to our troops, a large part of the SD
Indiana, 10Th Michigan, 22d Wisconsin, and
S5th Indiana, with most Of their commissioned
officers, being captured
Our artillery and cavalry were successfully
withdrawn. The l24th Ohio was out, but re-
turned without loss All is quiet to-day. The
rebels have fallen back. Their force was in
fantry, with heavier artillery than ours. Gen.
Gilbert's non-action, in failing to reinforce
Col. Coburn, is severely censured by the Of
ficers and men.

Mrs. PARTINGToN ABRoAD.-The New Or
leans correspondent of the Boston Journal
informs the readers of that paper that '.the
conSanguinity of several regiments of native
guards (colored) with white soldiers, at Ship
Island and Baton Rogue, has led to the mani
festation of such spirit of hostility to the
colored officers, as to induce the colored Of
fcers of at least one regiment (the Sd, Col
Nelson) to resign"
Clearly Johnson, Walker, Worcester and
Webster have not lived and written in vain.
They have supplied the world with store Of
large words from which all who use the pen
or tongue may draw at discretion. "Again

In Pleasantyille, as is shown by a petition
which your committee have seen, and also by
personal investigation OF your committee,
there are 343 children under fifteen years of
age, 100 of whom are between the ages of five
and fifteen years. These children have no
accommodations for instruction in their
own neighborhood or out of it. Many of
them attend school at Pleasant street, some
on Main street, some at Sycamore street, and
few at New Worcester.
In view of all the facts thus briefly present.
ed, your committee unanimously recommend ::
First. The erection of a school house in East
Worcester similar in size and style to the
house recently built on Salem street, and de-
signed to accommodate 24O pupils.
Second The erection of a school house in
Pleasantville similar in size and style to Sec
ton of ono-half of the Salem street house, and
designed to accommodate 100 pupils.
Third. An alteration of the Thomas street
school house so as to make twelve rooms for
single schools and new entrance and dressing
rooms.
Fourth. A partition of the large rooms in
the high school house so as to increase the
number of r oms and reduce the size in such
manner that there shall be four rooms of
the size of single school rooms for the female
teachers, and two rooms of the size of double
school rooms for the male teachers and con-
venlent dressing rooms.
Fifth. To sell the old school house and lot
in East Worcester, and the appropriation of
the proceeds to the erection of new one. All
OF which is most respectfully submitted by the
committee.
