THE LATE BATTLE IN TENNESSEE

NASHVILLE, Dec 2-I have received full accounts OF
the late battle at Franklin, and its antecedents.
This battle was OF the most brilliant in s general
results Of the For three days sharp diminishing
kept up during the retirement of army from Duck
river to Franklin, within which time multiplicity Of
plots and successes resulted to the Federal arms.
Gen. Cox conducted the guard, and the goth
ultmo achieved splendid victory the rebels at Spring
Hill while Gen Wilson's cavalry gained series Of i'm
portant Forests advance under Roddy
the pike between Turner'S and Spring Hill
During the afternoon Of the 30th ultmo the rebel army
was sorsy pressed under Hood who had Cheahams and
Stewards corps and portion Of Dick Tayors command
numbering in all over twenty two thousand men. Owing
to Cox's gallant check at Spring Hill, portion Of the
Fourth and Twenty.thrd Crops were enabled to gain
Franklin early in the day, where they threw up line Of
breastwok extending from end to the other Of the
curve in the river behind which our entire infantry COM
mand took position.
At four o'clock (afternoon) the entire rebel force
msnded by Wagner, made charge, and succeeded in
making temporary break in centre With chsrsc-
terstc impetuosity the soldiers composing Cheathams
corps dashed the breastworks and cooperating with
the attacking party their left attempted to envelop and
destroy right Ia the nick OF time the troops Of Wag
ner were rallied and throwing their whole force the
rebel column drove back the tormng party in great dis
order and captured several hundred prisoners -Four times
sferward the rebels charged these nes but
pulsed often with great slaughter The rebels numbered
ct least two to nearly half OF the Fourth aud
Twenty. third Corps we're 10
The artillery fire Of the enemy made with great
precision but their ammunition consisted chiefly Of shot
and she'll while for two hours immense quantities Of
murderous missiles hurled with fearful fury into the
rebel lines ALI the attempts of the rebels to gain per
manen advantage frustrated aud at dark the Federal
position was unchanged while the rebels retired under
cover Of the woods south of the Columbia pike.
The rebel loss 10 fully six thousand including
thousand prisoners unusual number of whom were
officers Our loss reached total Of about thousand
An artillery duel kept up till nearly midnight when
troops commenced crossing Hsrpeth river bringing all
trains and paraphernas In safety before daylight
The army then retired to within four miles Of this city
which point front line confronu the enemy The fall
ing back of the army accordance with the programme
The battle Of Franklin although of the most brilliant kind
mpromptu affair and brought about owing to the
necessity Of checking the rebel advance TO secure safe
crossing Of the river BY our troops.
