From Tennessee.

A despatch from Nashville, Tcnnes-
see, March 9th, says Col. John Coburn
bas been in command of a brigade
composed of two regiments Of infant
ry, and one battery of the 18th Ohio,
with the 9th Pennsylvania and I'd
Michigan cavalry, stationed at Frank
lin, Tennessee. He advanced on Spring
Hill, l3 miles south of Franklin, on the
4th inst. Several spirited skirmishes
occurred during the day with Van
Dorn's command, our troops camping
four miles distant.
On the 9Th, movement was appa-
rent, and during some disorder on our
left, the enemy suddenly opened on
our men with three batteries from diff
ferent points at the same time. The
enemy also appeared on each flank in
greatly superior numbers. The une-
quail contest was maintained with
great determination, with heavy loss
on both sides, and resulted unfortu-
nately to our troops. A large portion
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cavalry were successfully withdrawn.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 returned
without loss. The rebels have fallen
back. Their force was infantry, and
heavier artillery than ours. General
Gilbert's non-action, in failing to rein
force Col. Coburn, is severely censured
by the officers and men. He was at
Franklin with several regiments.
Van Dorm is reported to have is, 900
men under his command.

J. w. Forney on New England.

Those Tories who have been hurl-
ing their abuse at New England, and
threatening the organization of a
Northwestern Confederacy, with the
Puritan States" left tout in the
cold" may, perhaps, be benefited by
reading the following extract from a
scathing letter from Occasional"
in the Philadelphia Press Of the 3Oth
ult:
I need pronounce no eulogy upon
New England--her annals are writ
ten in all our records-her sons have
fought in all our battle-felds- her
literature is read at all our fresides.
There is scarcely school district in
our wide domain that has not profited
in the light of her example. Her
teachers have educated the children
If the shareholders in the South, and
her mechanics have enriched these
shareholders by teaching them how
10 cultivate the products of their soil.
Everywhere the sons of New England
may be found. Everywhere frugal,
industrious, adventurous, and every
where loyal. There is not town in
Pennsylvania that does not recognize
the presence and feel grateful for the
influence of the Yankee character.
And the population of the great North
West-the seat of wondrous pro-
gress--is an admixture in which
New England thrift, daring, and 10y
atty are the chief and controlling in
gradients. In the delicious infatua-
tion Of the new managers Of the DEM
ocratic party, it is now proposed to
cut off New England from the rest of
the States. And to this entertain
ment her own descendants, and those
with whom they are intermarried and
associated over all these wide do
mains are earnestly invited to take
part. There's divinity which shapes
our ends, rough-hew them as we
may" and it is probable that the ex-
cesses of the men who now occupy
seats heretofore filled by the best and
purest statesmen in the land, are i'm
PEELED by an irresistible fate to the
commission of these overshadowing
offences, 80 that, in the end, their pun-
ishment may be held up as a perpetu-
al admonition through coming gene
rations. May we not say of them
what the old poet said Of the degenc-
rate sons Of Rome
And, lest the merit Of the crime be lost,
With dreadful joy the parricide they boast,
Proud 10 the chiefs the cold pale heads they bear,
The gore yet dropping from the silver hair'

Assault upon the Old Flag.

On the 2lst ult, Copperhead con-
vcntion was held in Winterset, Madi-
son county, Iowa, and there is but
little doubt that the object of the
meeting was to prevent recruiting in
that county. The Haaokeye Flag OF
that place says: "The first object
of their wrath was Lieut.. Henry of
the 4th Iowa Infantry, who was there
on recruiting service. The mob told
him if he hung out the Flag, they
would tear it down !"
The Lieutenant, undismayed by
this pressure, unfurled the Stars and
Stripes from his window. The rioters
thought best not to execute their
threat, and contented themselves with
impotent curses, levelled at the Lieu
tenant, at the Flag, and at the Gov
ernment.
The leader of this band of rebel
fends is one Brannon or Branum, a
lawyer, who was driven out Of Kinks
vile, Missouri, by Uniou men on ac-
count Of his disloyalty. The Haukeye
Flag states that he is now under
bonds to remain away from Missouri
during the war. 1t is reported, also,
that he was imprisoned for time at
Camp Mcclellan for rebel practices.
This Traitor has been operating as
JEFF. Davis missionary in the border,
central, and western counties. Not
many days since he was in Dallas
county, stirring up the Copperhead
sympathizers to open resistance to
Federal authority. He seems to be a
regularly authorized emissary Of the
Rebellion, who is paid for his patriot
ic efforts to plunge this state into the
anarchy and horrors of civil war. He
is not alone in this yillanous business.
Hundreds Of expatriated bush-whack-
ers from Missouri are moving among
the communities in the border coun-
ties. Their avowed purpose is to in

set, that they have met with partial
success. 1t is high time for the peo-
pie Of this SHte to look the threaten
ed danger in the face, and adopt
measures for their own protection.

The Jacob Bell had 1000 chests of

crew were transferred to a Dutch

doubtless exhibit a wholesome eau

The passage of the bill "for enrol
ling and calling out the national
forces" &C., is scarcely inferior in its
Importance to that Of the finances.
When the work of enrolling has been
completed, the strength of the nation
which will thus be developed, will not
only surprise ourselves but astonish
the world. The fact will then be pa
tent that we have as yet scarcely be-
gun to put forth the strength of which
we are capable in putting down the
rebellion, or which we may exert in
resisting any aggression upon our
rights by foreign nations.
There is no truth in the report that
Gen. Mcclellan is to be reinstated as

of the forthcoming report of the Com
