Sketch OF Franklin. Tenn.

The battlefield OF the 29'h ult., probably ON.
hraCed within It's limits the town of franklin
This place has never been, properly speaking
occupied by us; but, for over n year past our
troops have occupied two forts on the north bank
Of the Big Harpcth river, and overlooking and
commanding the town. It is more than probable
that Hoods attack on tue 20th nit. was from n
position IN the town upon the works beyond the
river.
Franklin is handsome town, pleasantly located
on the llarpeth river, and is the cOunty-sclt of
Williamson county. II has population of about
fifteen hundred inhabitants. There are no public
buildings Of importance.
Franklin fell into our hands in March, 1862,
being captured by General Buells army on tho
march to Shiloh. IL was evacuated in the Sep
tCmber following, on the retrograde movement
Of the same army. During that time it was
several times attacked. II was reOcCuDied for u
few hours on December II by General ID. S.
Stanley, then Chief of Rosecrans Cavalry.
Several mills and various other property be-
longing to the Rebels were burned. The place
was Permanently occupied Immediately after the
battle Of MurircesborO, and as a consequence of
Bragc's retirement from the position. General
Forrest and staif narrowly escaped capture on
this occasion.
General Van Dorm, with his own and Forests
command, made determined assault on the posi-
tion on the 10th of April, 1868. General Gordon
Granger defended the position and repulsed the
enemy, driving him out Of the town, with heavy
loss. Our loss was less than one hundred; that
of the enemy three times as great.
In September last General Rosecrans attacked
Wheeler in Franklin, and defeated him with con-
siderable loss. One Rebel brigadler-general
Kelly was mortally wounded, and died tue neXl
day in the town.

taehments from the lst Florida Cavalry, Major

chinsoD, all under command of Lieutenant.
Colonel Squirting, arrived last night from a raid
to Pine Barren bridge, a station thirty miles from
here, on the Pensacola ana Montgomery Rail
road.
Thirty of the party, dressed In Rebel uniform,
led the advance, surprised and captured four
picket posts Of four men each this side of the
bridge, and, advancing on the station, were sa-
luted as Forests men by the Rebel outpOsts.
With drawn sabres the scouts under Colonel
Squirting wakod up the company stationed at the
bridge from their morning deVotions-card-p play
ing-and demanded an unconditional surrender.
The Rebels hesitated, seeing they outnumbered
the scouts; but the Yankee reserve coming in at
the time, they gave themselves up rs prisoners Of
war. The result was the whole party we're cap
tuTud, consisting Of twcnty-siX privates, three
commissioned officers, their horses and accOutrc
monts, all Of which have been brought safely into

Tic prisoners belong to the 10Th Rebel cavalry,

HnnI,a Intnntinns

Hoods movements have been so erratic that IL
is very hard TO define his real intentions.
FORESTS attack on our right is evidently q
teint 20 cover HOODS movements. Forrest is
evidently wheeling round our flank with the in.
tcntOn of cutting the Nashville and Decatur
line about Franklin. In this he is likely to sue
coed. He might next operate on the Nashville
and Louisville inc; but the Cumberland is too
dcepto be torded, having nine feet OF water on
the shoals.
Meantime Hood is sweeping eastward, along
the Polk road, towards LynChburg and Shelby
Yile the latter point being some fifty miles north
east Of Columbia, and five miles from the Chat
tanooga line. II not interrupted he will destroy
the latter from Wartrace, most likely, sending
force to attempt TO destroy the bridge at Bridge
port.
As Thomas is concentrating his army, it is
most likely that be wall strike him between Shell
byvillc and Murfreesboro.
There is no alarm or uueasncss felt at Nash
vile. The fullest confidence is felt in Thomas
and his army, which has been largely reinforced.
Thomas is but waiting his own best time to strike
at the opportune moment.
There is no fear about the safety of Nashville
Tor though Hood has large army, he would not
be rash enough to butt up against it, Should he
do so he would surely meet with a most
signal defeat. / think that Hood will avoid q
general engagement when he finds out the
strength OF Thomas army.
He has had the advantage all along of having
his army concentrated and ready TO hurl on any
given point, while Thomas was scattered, guard
ing our communications. For the present we
must abandon some minor positions, and con
ccntIatc in order to meet Hood in the field
Hood, too, is trying to create a moral effect
throughout the South as q set-ON TO ShermAus
great campaign. One thing is certain he cannot
seriously iniure us. lie still has his base Of sup
plies at Florence. How he is supplying his
army is almost mystery. He is leaving the
country bare Of cattle and proYsions-Ne,o York
