Halleck, Generalin Chief: The following dis- palch was received trom Gen. Granger on the lath : General Van Dorn made his promised attack to-day, at one o'clock, directly in front and on the town, (Franklin, Tenn.) “The infantry re- giments on guard in town, with the cavalry pickets, heid him at bay until their ammuni- tion was exhausted. The dense smoke and at- mosphere favored their operations, enabliag them to approach very near without our being able to observe them. Our siege guns and our light batteries opened upon them with mur- derous efect, literally strewing the ground with men and horses. I had halted Stanly four miles out on the Murfreesboro” road, and he at once crossed his force over at Huight’s Mills, vigorously attack- ing Forrest's division, moving down on the Lewisburg pike, and capturing six pieces of artillery, and some two hundred prisoners, but owing to the untavorable nature of the country was unabie to hold them, being attacked by greatly superior numbers, outflanked and nearly surrounded. Our loss in killed, wounded and prisoners is Jess than 10(, while the enemy’s loss cannot be less than three times thet number. They were repulsed on all sides and driven untill! dark- ness prey: nied the pursuit, Captain McIntyre, of the ith regniars, took the batteries and prisoners, bringing off thirty edd of the latter.

The cavalry were reviewed on the 6th, ang yesterday such of the artillery and infantry as were encamped within a conyenient distance from the Tieid of review. Such as were re- moved in their encampments at some distance» were not required to be present. The order | went ont on the evening preyions to be in posi- hon by !0o0'clock a. m., at which hour the Pres- ident and family, seated in a plain carriage, and surrounded by & number of generals ani eir staffs, with a body-gnuard of Rush’s lance were stationed on the summit of a slightly rismg mound, about a hundred yards to the south of the headquarters of Gen. Sickles. The scene before the pageant was thrillingly ani- mated and beautiful, the artillery being parked to the left and extending backward. whilst the infantry, by regiments, reached te a great dis- tance in front and to the right, the bauds play- ing our national airs most inspiringly, and drums beating all the while.
