                          Re:  Franklin International Trust
                                
                           Gentlemen:
                                
      We have examined the Agreement and Declaration of Trust of
Franklin International Trust ("Fund"), a Delaware Business Trust,
the Bylaws of the Fund, its form of Share Certificate, and the
various pertinent Trust proceedings we deem material.  We have
also examined the Notification of Registration and the
Registration Statements filed under the Investment Company Act of
1940 ("Investment Company Act") and the Securities Act of 1933
("Securities Act"), all as amended to date, as well as other
items we deem material to this opinion.
                                
     You have advised us that the Fund is about to file, pursuant
to the provisions of Rule 24f-2 under the Investment Company Act,
a Notice for the purpose of registering under the Securities Act
the 6,074,118 shares sold by the Fund pursuant to Rule 24f-2
during its fiscal year ended October 31, 1995.  You have informed
us that the shares were sold in accordance with the Fund's usual
method of distributing its shares whereby currently effective
prospectuses are made available for delivery to offerees and
purchasers of shares in accordance with Section 5(b) of the
Securities Act.
                                
Based upon the foregoing information and examination, it is
our opinion that the 6,074,118 shares of beneficial interest in
the Fund sold between November 1, 1994 and October 31, 1995
pursuant to Rule 24f-2 have been duly and validly issued and are
fully-paid, non-assessable, legally outstanding shares of capital
stock of the Fund.
                                
      We hereby consent to the use of this opinion as an exhibit
to the Notice under Rule 24f-2 of the Act, covering the
registration of the said shares under the Securities Act and the
applications and registration statements, and amendments thereto,
filed in accordance with the securities laws of the various
states in which shares of the Fund are offered, and we further
consent to reference in the Prospectus of the Fund to the fact
that this opinion concerning the legality of the issue has been
rendered by us.
                                
                                       Very truly yours,
