Franklin last night and have taken posi-
tion and formed line OF battle south o
Nashville about three miles
Skirmishing has been going on all da,
about five miles south here. Heavy can

ciizens in the ultimate success of The
Federal armies.
The emplyments Of the @ ,artermas'er,
department are under arms and in the
trenches.
One hundred and seven Confederate
officers. including one Brig d General

Major General P ope.

The Milwaukee Seminal says, This distin-
guished officer, who has so worthily administer
ed the affairs Of this department fer scme time
past, has been requested by the Secretary of
war to report in person at Washington" 1t
pays compliment to his ability as man and
a soldier, to his achievements as a Fighting
General" and the prudent policy Ivy which,
though man of radical views himself, he has
secured the enforcement of the laws in this de.
partment without any fthose difficulties which
have occurred elswhere. The seminal adds
"If. as is undoubtly the case. General Pore is
at last to have a command somewhat adequate
to his demonstrated ability, the country hrs
reason to rejoice. 1t has been an unsolved
mystery to all save few why an officer Of
such rare energy, brilliant talents and indomi-
table pluck has been SO long shelved away in
such department as this. Not until the con.
clus on of the war will ali the forts be known.
ut when they are, the country learn to admire
the patience and patriotic reticence Of General
Pope as much as it has hitherto admired his
splendid fighting qualities. It may, perhaps
not be out of place for us to say, even now. tina,
Lieutenant General Grant has sought, from th,
time Of his taking command of the army. tC
have General Pope with him in the field"

During the day heavy skirmishing occurred
on our left, and progressing along the line t.
the center
Many persons witnessed the cannonadint
along the right of our lines.
Nothing ofmportance transpircd today.
The genearl opinion is that Hood will attack
the General forces in front of Nashville. The
Federal cavalry force has patroled the south
bank of the rivorat fords, to prevent the rebe
cavalry crossing, as numerous unsuccessful at.
tempts have been made by them to cross since
the 1st inst.
Johnsonsville has been evacuated The road
has been interrupted and portion of the trains
from there are advancing to this point by land
Ii is rumored here to day that Forrest has placed
poltoon bridge across the river above the
city, and that Marmadmkc had occupied John
senville. both of which are without foundation
The fast clock house on the Chattanooga Road,
four miles from the city, defended by Colonel
johnson, of ..he 2ltg Colored Iufantry who
surrendered Dalton, Georgia, and was paroled
held out until this afternoon, when they sur
rendered. Colonel johnson and portion Of his
men escaped on train. The remainder Of the
captured train was fired into and the conduc,
tor and Others were killed. Several leaped from
the train INTO the river, and escaped. Colonel
johnson is among those who are in the city to-
night.
The accommodating party sent out on Thurs
day, returned to day, having gone eighty miles
up the river. They reported that no rebels
were seen or heard of, crossing the river, and
none appcard along the banks.
\ rebel descrter who came in today reports
that General S. D. Lee published an order to
his men Friday forenoon, complimenting them
on their bravery, devotion DC, thanking them
for the victory won at Franklin, aud assuring
them that if true to themselves now, IN 'front.' OF
Nashville, they would soon be able to en,. and
take possession of the vast amount Of stores con-
tanned there.
Prisoners brought in to-day. Leute nant

Kendall, who recently returned from an official
visit to California. communicates the following
incident:
"a poor little boy brought to tho Sanitary
Fair, held at Marysvlle, white chicken which
was all he had to Offer. saying it might make
some broth for poor sick soldier. He had
decked his little offering with ribon of re l.
white and blue but he had no money to pay
the entrance fee. and was rejected at the door
As heps,ssed down the street. gentleman seeing
his distress, lsiSned to his story. gave him Q
ticket and sent him in. The simplicity OF the
child and the beauty of the offering attracted
attention, and the chicken was put up apd
sold for four hundred dollars in gold for the
Sanitary Commission"
