SUNDAY MORNING, JDNE 7, 1868.

FRANKLIN ITEMS. Correct information
touching the rebel attack on franklin is
difficult TO obtain. There are q number
of improbable reports in circulation, all
Of which we dismiss as unworthy Of
mention. The chief fact, which may bs
relied upon is, that the little garrison of
about 900 men, were attacked on Thurs
day aft rnoon, by force under f r,e,t
and starncs estimated at from 5000 to
5000 the fight commencing at o'clock
and continuing till night, the garrison
keeping the rebels at bay. The next
morning the assailants renewed the at
tack, were repulsed, and driven off, being
followed by Federal forces, who kept up
continual skirmishing with them.
Up TO Friday night we had captured
40 prisoners, killed one and wounded
three. The garrison sustained no loss.
During the contest Forrest practiced
ruse worthy of him, riding up to our
pickets waving flag of truce and calling
upon them to give up, as the fort had al
ready surrendered; but he missed his
aim, the pickets warned him to leave
forthwith, or they would shoothim.
Thursday night about 100 rebel cav
airy rode into the town of Franklin, and
committed depredatiOns usual with them
whenever they have an opportunity, rob-
bling stores, &c.
The attack on the garrison at Franklin
was, we presume, but part of the plan
Of reconnaissance along our lines begun
that day to see whether any of our
troops had been sent to Grant.

CAMP SCHAFER, TRNN.,(
June 4th 1868. {

Editor of tie Nashville Union:
We are all eager for fight, and think
there are not enough rebels in Tennessee
to whip us, while the gallant Rosecrans
is our leader.
The boys say they have been in camp
long enough, and want TO try the rebels
another round.
There is cRnnonading in front this
morning, and expect we will have to
60 out and see what is up, for we hold a
" lone hand, and know how to play it.
A full cartridge box and cold steel, which
will do TO bet on.
l will.clOse by say ingthat Gen. Rose
Grams is ,Oidc iOake, and when Gen. U.
s. Grant takes Vicksburg, the rebels will
have to come to terms ere many months
pass.
The "UNIoN" ia almost invaluable, and
is looked for daily with eagerness and
pleasure. Yours, respectfully,
PRIVATE,
9th Illinois Vols.

The 9Th Kansas Regiment for some
six months or more Provost Guard in
Nashville, left yesterday for I" the front"
As they marched through the city they
received unmistakable evidences Of the
good will and confidence of the people,
in the hearty cheers and benisons with
which they were greeted. Their depAr-
ture is a matter of very general regret.
The 18th Michigan, Col. CHARLES G..
DooLIrTLE, has taken the place of the
sth Kansas as Provost Guard. They
entered upon duty yesterday, and started
out with anovident intention to render
their services efficient.

935 soldiers. He is the largest military

kged for the Constitution and the Union, has q
peculiar significance at this conitmcture N
Fran is.c -Kayepolita4 Reemd.
The people long tpspaacc evenas the .hsrt
fpanteth after the water brooks they pant for it
| To obtain peace they would sacrifice every taina
we honor: but the miserable fanatics who
bro't on tins war would not give up one Of their
lpaltry prejuaiees TO save The country from anni-
! hilation. With ruthless exultaton, worthy
Of savages, tlley drive their miserable hobbies
over heaps o. slain and seas of blood, over
that revered document which patriots call the
Constitution, and foul mou.hed radicals sheep
skin,' over the wildly throbbing National heart,
over the mammoth graves OF our slaughtered
citizons and over the msngled form OF pros
trate hberty.-IFor what To realize the ITO
pia Of some fanatic ultraist, with little brans
and less ballast TO carry out the wild schemes
of some hcsrtlcss visionary, though the result
should paraiyzo nation and ''set the clock OF
! tue world back century" shall they bepermit-
to drown with their clamor the still, small
voice Of wisdom intoxicating peace? Shall the
passions and prejndices the vice and follies, of
a coatemptible minority be permitted to work
the ruin of our country. Toprevent it, earnest
thought IS as necessary as prompt action, and
what is earnest thought without bold utter
alrce
Tie longer this war continues the more en-
bittel ed viii become the feeling between the
contes.,Ing sections therefore, .'let bosiiities
cease, and let an armis,ice be declared, which
will give, &pgry passions an opportunity to cool
down and reason TO assert her way" We, the
conservative masses of the country, have freely
given to the country our blood end treasure +; is
it 700 much to Il * that radicals shall sacrifice
tleir daring isn,s! Let the radicals no longer
sit with foldad arms callidg upon every one 10
save tlle county. THOSE WHO have been SO
careful 70 preserve their lives should at ieAst be
wiling 10 sacrifice their hobbies; and tha done,
let the people meet ii convention. and aeree

hooves US to cultivate aregaid for the rights of
others, and to show respect for the opinions of
Others. One section should not assume to be
the conscience OF the whole nor claim that its
ideas Of right and wrong should dominate the
entire Confederacy. We have had enough
of political Pharisaeism. We Of the North,
have been too long in the habit of regarding
ourselves as better than our neighbors; the war
has done good deal towards dspeling that
Illusion Surely, then, it is good time to-
''mect in convention,7 and settle as best we may
our National troubles by home intervention,
the only Intervention that is not derogatory to
the dignity Of a great nation nor distasteful to
The pride Of true patriot.
