Return of Mai. Gen, Franklin,


Maj. Gen. w. B. Franklin returned to this
city Saturday noon. In the evening quite a
number of citizens, of both sexes, assembled
in front of the U. S. Hotel, and accompanied
by the splendid band of the 18th U. S. Infan-
try, proceeded TO the residence of the General
on High street, where serenade was given
him. In response to a call Gen. Franklin APP
peared, and rendered his thanks for the COM
pliment paid him; excusing himself from
making a speech on account of his great ia.
tigue. The crowd gave him three cheers and
he retired.
Gen. Franklin denies that any lady pointed
him out in the cars, as has been alleged, and
by which means it was said his rank was dis
covered. He further says that more than half
the stories told about his capture, are mere
sensation articles, and are without the least
foundation in truth.

The 100 DAYS Men.

From the following letter from Gov. Couy
to Col. Edwards, it appears that the 100 days
men, proposed to be raised for the defense of
Washington, will not be wanted:
AUGUSTA, July 49, 1864.
Col. EDwARDs-Dedr Sir:--I have a dis
patch from Secretary Stanton, who says that
as the President will Immediately call for IL
months volunteers, the raising of 100 days
men would be likely TO interfere with the cal,
and unless there is more pressing emergen-
cy than now appears probable, one hundred
days men will not be needed.
Yours truly,
In haste,
