nnessee. We have received some further particulars of the brilliant victory of Gen. Van-Dorn near Franklin, Tenn., on the 5th. The fight continued four hours, and resulted in our driving the enemy from a strong position, killing 100, wounding 450, and capturing five regiments--two from Indiana, one from Ohio, one from Wisconsin, and one from Michigan. Two thousand five hundred of the enemy escaped, with one battery and three regiments of cavalry, the remainder of his force, to Franklin.--One hundred and twenty-five wounded and thirty killed will cover our loss. Col. Harl, of the 3d Arkansas, was killed while gallantly leading his men into action, and Captain Watson, of Gen. Armstrong's staff, while leading a charge. Lieut Sullivan, of Gen. Van Dorn's staff, had two horses shot under him while leading a charge to King's 1st Missouri battery. The success is due in a great measure to Gen. Forrest, who, by coming up in the enemy's rear, compelled their surrender.
entees, without effect, the chair was vacated for twenty minutes, at the expiration of which time, a quorum then being present, the order of the day was temporarily suspended, and the bill "to provide for voting by persons in the military service, and persons absent from their respective counties and corporations on account of the presence of the public enemy, in elections for members of Congress, and for Governor, Lieut Governor, and Attorney-General," was taken up. Mr. Robinson, of Berkeley, moved to amend the first section so as to allow them to vote also for members of the General Assembly; which was defeated — ayes 27, noes 38. Mr. Saunders, of Franklin, moved to strike out from the bill the third section, which confers upon refugees the right to vote wherever they may be temporarily sojourning at the time of election.--After some discussion, the previous question was called, when it was again ascertained that there was no quorum present; whereupon the House adjourned.
