The following additional details have
been received of the light near Franklin
yesterday. Five regiments of infantry, one
battery, the Kighteenth Ohio, with the
Seventh Pennsylvania and Second Michigan
Cavalry, all under command of Colonel
Coburn, of the Thirty-third Indiana, advan
ced on Spring Hill on the 4lh insr. Several
spirited skirmishes occurred during the
day. our troops camping four miles distant.
Ou tho 5th a movement by the Rebels was
apparent, causing somu disorder at Thomp
son's Station.
The Rebels suddenly opened on our men
with three batteries on different points, nnd
nt the panic time they appeared on each
think in greatly superior number. An une
qual conllict was maintained with great de
termination, causing heavy loss on both
sides, but linally resulted unfortunately to
our troops, the largest part of the Thirty
third Indiana, Nineteenth .Michigan, T'ven-ty-seennd
Wisconsin and the Eighty-fifth
Li'liaiui, with most of their commissioned
nliirers, being captured.
Our artillery and cavalry were successfully
w ilhdrawn. The One-hundrcd-aiid-twenty-fourth
Ohio was out but returned without
hiss. All is tpiiel to-day. The Rebels ht've
fallen back. Their force was infantry, with
heavier artillery than we had.
Ge:i. Gilbert's non-action nnd failure to
reinforce Col. Coburn, is severely censured
by officers and men.

Couixtii, Miss., Jan. 24,1803. Captain:
T haro the honor to submit a statement of
a few of the outrage committed upon citi
zens of Alabama by tho Confederate troops.
While all their lciule.-s. from the President
down, uro boasting of their carrying on this
w ar in accordance with the laws that govern
nntnrn in such tnsrs. nnd nre chare inir noon
our troops nil kinds of depredations nntl
outrages, I think a few simple (acts tnu-t
put. them to blush, and niaku thoso parties.
and our press and people who are seconding
the efforts of Davis to cast stigma upon us,
ashamed of the work they are doing.
I w ill merely state what I know to be
true. Alto Cnnadi and Air. Mitrh-ll were
hung two weeks ago for being Vnion men.
They lived on the Hacklelwiro settlement.
Marion county. Alabama. Mr, Hall work
and daughter of the same county were both
shot for the same cause, the latter instantly
killed, the former is yet alive, but will prob
ably die. Peter Lewes, and three of his
neighbors, were hunted down by one hun
dred blood-hounds, and captured.
The houses of Messrs. Palmer, Wclsby,
Williams, nnd the three Wcightmans. and
some thirty others, were burnt over their
heads, the women and children turned out
of doors, and the community notified that
if they allowed them to go into other houses,
or fed or harbored them in any manner,
they would be served the same.
Mr. Peterson, living nt the head of Bull
Mountain, was shot.
I am now feeding some oiie hundred of
inese lainincs, wlio, witn their woni'Mi mul
children, some giay-haired old men, nnd
even cripples on crutches, were driven out
and found their way here, through the woods
and byways, without food and shelter, nil
done for the simple rcaon they were Vnion
men, or that they had brothers or relatives
in our army. The statements of these peo
ple nre almost beyond belief, did wc not
have the evidence before us.
1 am informed by them that there are
hundreds of loyal men and women in the
woods of Alabama, with for an opportunity
to escape.
I am, very respectfully, your obedient
servant, G. M. Dodok,
P.iigadier-Gcneral.

X DitrMMFK Boy's Fi:at. Among the
many incidents narrated of the daring and
heroism displayed in our army, wc have not
heard of any which wc think more deserving
of note than that performed by a mere lad
of thirteen j cars, from our own Borough,
connected with the DOtli Regiment., under
j ( olonel II. L. C ake, us we have learned it
I from those connected w ith tho command.
It appears that Robert Wright, son of Jona
than Wright, Esq., of Pottsville, a drummer
boy, having possessed himself of a secesh
horse after tlm battle of Artietam, rode
somo distance from the camp, and espying a
I rebel soldier (a tine, stalwart fellow living
upon the ground, dismounted, stole quietly
j to his knapsack, and on opening it discov
ered two pistols, one of wliich he took, and
then awakened his man, ordering linn to
surrender. The rebel made a move towards
his gun, which was but n short distance off,
when young AVrigltt ordered him to halt or
he would shoot him, and actually brought
him a prisoner into the camp of his regiment.
The uproarious demonstrations of the soldiers
when he was seen ruling into cam) with his
prisoner before him, can bo better imagined
than described. Wc learn that for this act
he has been deservedly promoted bv Ids
Colonel to the rank of orderly at his head
quarters. Mimrs' Journal.

About ten o'clock in tic evening somebody

to Charles H then in exile in Flanders
inviting tho royal outcast to be their king.
I lo accepted tho invitation and on tho very
