Generals Sumner nnd Hooker wero en

In front of Franklin's division. Tho object
of both pnrtics is evidently to feel the other.
During Inst night and this motning the
rebels considerably itrrngthctied their posi

bodies of troops nro now to be seen where
few wero to bo seen yesterdny. Those
kilted yesterdny while charging th enemy's
works remain where they lull. While we
wero attempting to remove them Inst night
tho rebels opened fire with musketry, but
tho wounded hnvo nil been removed from
