e late victory at Franklin. Thirty stands of colors were captured by the Union forces. The Forty ninth Indiana captured five; the Eighty-eighth Illinois, three; Reilly's old brigade, eighteen; and the Twenty-third corps captured four.

He is in the city, and though suffering considerably is still attending to duty. It is confirmed that General Patrick R. Cleburne, of Arkansas, is killed. General Kimball, commanding the Second division of General Stanley's corps, in the heat of the battle, passed a rebel major-general, who told him he was mortally wounded.

A telegram from Nashville says that Thomas is inside the fortifications. The dispatch is so entirely rich, as illustrating how a Yankee war dispatch may be written, that we publish it in full: Yesterday evening the two hostile armies were engaged in heavy skirmishing, and the rattle of musketry could plainly be heard in the streets of N
