Rosecrans, on assuming Oct. 30, 1862. command of Buell's Army of the Ohio, found it seriously depleted and demorerved, and doubtless contributed very essentially to Morgan's defeat, with a loss of 63 killed and some 200 or 300 wounded, including himself. Hall's entire loss was but 55. Franklin, being occupied by a Union force of 4,500 men, under Gen. Gordon Granger, Van Dorn, with a superior force, assailed, April 10. with intent to capture it; but was easily beaten off, with a loss of 200 or 300, including 80 prisoners; our loss being 37 only.

Gordon Granger, with a cooperating land force, perhaps 5,000 strong, which had debarked on Dauphine island, but which could be of no service for the present; and did not ason, commanding there, next morning sued for conditions. He night probably have held out a little longer; but, being on an island, with the fleet on one side and Granger's army on tile other, there was not a possibility of relief or protracted resistance. At 9 3/4 A. M., the Stars and Stripes were raised over the fort, and Anders and his representations doubtless did much to excite the clamor raised against that officer throughout Dixie as a coward or a traitor.

Gordon Granger--participated, as we have seen, in the reduction of the forts at the mouth of Mobile bay. During the year, Gen.

Granger's march around Don Secours bay and up to Mobile was impeded by pouring rains and heavy roads; so that Smith's corps, worts and thus moved up and across the bay to their appointed rendezvous near Fish river, arrived first; March 21. but Granger's corps came up in the course of the two following days; and the joint advance on Mobile was resumed on the 25th. It wassed with great ardor, and with considerable loss from Rebel shells. On the morning of the 30th, Veatch's division of Gen.
