The attack on Franklin.

On Tuesday the enemy, in considerable force, made an attack on the village of Franklin, Southampton county, which they shelled for more than two hours. They also made several attempts to cross Blackwater river, on which Franklin is situated, but the reception given them by our forces there kept them in check. Their numbers were not known, but it is supposed they had with them more than one brigade. Some twelve or fourteen of their number were made prisoners. There were several other unimportant skirmishes on the same stream within the past few days.
