The rebel forces were better armed and eaperieoned than usual, and were variously estimated at from 16,46 to 0,44) im nambers.

There is no question here about the behavior of our troops. They fought splendidly during ‘Tburedsy and acted with the steadiness of veterans, but were finally overpowered and driven back by the rebe! host. The rebel cay- airy came down apou Colonel Cobo rn’s bri- gade yust before dark and routed it com) letely, leaving no Lope for rallying at that }ate honor in the day, especially 2s ammunttion trains had teen 'tarned beck toward Franklin, and many tf our men wefe entircly out of ammunition. The loss of the rebeis in the action. as noaras could be ascertained, was two huncred and ten (310) killed, and fiye- hundred wounded. There as but little doubt that the rebel loss is much freater than this,as during the skirmishing early im the day our troops held a cecided ad- vantage over the rebels, and the latter carried back their killed and wounded. None of our officers were killed, although e@uite 2 number were wounded. Our loss in uen-commissioned officers and enlisted men foots up as follows: Killed, 100; wounded, 210; taken prisoners bj en. Forrest, about 1,00. During Thursday nizht the rebels retreated. Gur forces lett to us after the battle were not euMecrent to follow them up. If this could have been done, this dearly-won rebel success might have been turned intoa decided Union victory. Gencral Rosecrans has been here, end, judging from lis locks, will make some ef our.“political” genersls more attentive, or make the military profession a very nnpopu- jar one for them. On Saturday, the 7th Pennsylvania Cavairy hac guite a battle with a body of rebels ad- Yaneing towards ionville. ‘The aifair took piace near the town, ard the rebels were badly whipped. The Federal loss was ‘small, and two handred ena thirty rebels were killed and | wornded, and @ number of captures were made. Se" The N. Y.
