the fords above Franklin this morning, at
daybreak, closely following Gen. Wilson,
who retired in this direction. SkirnlishiDg
with the advance has occurred all day.
Gen. Wilson occupies a strong position a
few miles South of Nashville and is able to
resist any force the rebels may bring
against him.
terday was Col. Gordon, of the llth Ten
nessee.
A Brevet Brigadier General officer who
witnessed the fight at Franklin yesterday
describes the battle as one of the most SAN
culinary. The determined bravery of the
Confederates exceeded anything before
seen. Although slaughtered by hundreds
they still advanced against our batteries.
Within five hours eleven distinct assaults
were made against our works, each a fail
ure. Our forces, the battle being ended,
quietly withdrew from the town.
HaAmong the casualties is Maj. Gen. STAN
ley, wounded by shot in the neck. The

ers. 3rd brigade, 1st division.
The rebel casualties were Brig. General
Adams killed. and Brig. Gen. Scott wound
ed. The total loss of the enemy in killed,
wounded and prisoners is estimated at a. 900,
1900 being either killed or wounded. The
Federal loss in killed and wounded is ZOO
Loss in prisoners trifling.
Our loss in regimental and field officers
is very heavy. General Bradley is also
wounded and in the city. Additional Fed
eral wounded-Colonel Stockton and Mai
James, I'D Illinois. 1t is rumored this eve
ming that Hood is moving east, towards
>Murfreesboro.
