NASHVILLE, Dec. 10.
The Federal loss at Franklin, sscer-
tanned by official reports, is greater than at
first supposed. In the I'd division, 23d
corps. the tUss vas % vf4ivrrs 1rIt 900 men
killed, wounded and missing; in the ID
men, and in the 3d division, 4th corps, 81
officers and 276 men.
A large proportion are slightly wounded
and are in the hospitals here.
The loss to residents, living near the
lines of the two armies, is estimated at
nearly half million dollars.
The rebel General Cheatham, whose
headquarters arc at the residence of Mrs.
A. V. Burr, was shelled out from there yes
terday by our batteries. The house is re-
ported destroyed.
On Sunday last a small party Of COME /
crates, about fifty, succeeded in crossing
the Cumberland river, this side of the
shoals, aud three o the number were cap
claim that the whole party deserted from
the rebel lines and were making their way
home.
One prisoner was captured yesterday and
Our deserters came in. The latter report
Hood about making 8 movement Of some
kind.
The woather is very cold. About two
inches of snow fell yesterday and last
night.
The situation is unchanged in front of
the 4th corps, and not a shot was fired up
to two o'clock Since then some slight
skirmishing has occurred.
Owing to the slippery state Of the ground
the men find it impossible to move about,
The rebels can be plainly seen from tho
front of the 4th corps, standing around
their camp fires.
Hostilities may be said TO have ceased on
account of the weather.
Deserters who como in say that therebels
have strong entertainments, and two rows
of chevauz de f7ieE, with wires stretched
around to strengthen them.
Colonel Louis johnson, instead of COL
onel G. n. S. Johnson, 44th Colored Infant

bay for sixteen hours and finally fou sht his
way out, and resched Nashville, with loss
Of lis men killed and wounded.
We have no report from the gunboats
which went down the river yesterday. No

mishing to discover the strength Of the en-
envy, chsrga was made across the run,
and the works carried by assault, but not
till the rebels had made good their retreat
up the South Side rosd Our men took
position in the captured entrenchments,
while skirmishers were thrown out on both
TANKS. Soon after report came that the
enemy were moving up and across the
run, half a mile west OF the road,
where our troops were. On their
evincing an intention to attack on the
right flank, General Miles at once dis
posed his command to receive them He
also sent back for reinforcements, which
were given him at once, but the enemy did
not make their appearance during the
evening, and it is believed they fell back
70 stronger position at Armstrong; Mills,
q mile and half west The impression is
that they had no large force in the vicinity,
otherwise more stubborn resistance to our
advance would have been made.
Our loss in the charge was seventeen
men wounded. Among them was Lieuten-
ant Ward of the Third Pennsylvania cav
airy. Loss of the enemy unknown.
Later in the day reports came that the
enemy were moving toward the left in
heavy force Arrangements were made to
meet them, but up to this hour, midnight,
they have not appeared.
In my dispatch 8 few days ago, giving
q list of promotions, l, by error gave the
name OF General Meade as being made
Breget Major General, this was incorrect,
he was made full Major General in the
regular army, to date from August 18th,
1864, to rank next to Sherman. This pro-
motion was conferred at the special request
of General Grant. ~
