FROM WASHINGTON


Especial Dispatch to the Chicago Tribunal
WASHINGTON, Thursday, july II.
Adyices from Gen. Sherman are that be
succeeded in finding the enemy on Wedues-
day and fought him oil day to the north and
northeast Of Atlanta. The assaults upon
our lines we're repulsed with great slaughter
to the rebel forces and small loss TO us,
Night came with both armies upon the field.
No adyices hare been received relative to to-
days operations.
Gen. Hood was in command of the rebel
force. Johuston's whereabouts are not re-
ported.
FROM GRANTS ARMY.
Adyices from Grant's army are that on
Tuesday aud Wednesday the usual firing OF
artillery continued, with it's usual results.
The enemy's fire is heaviest in front Of Burn
side, aud appears to be directed 1t the negro
troops, who are anxious for a chance to get
even rith the rebels.
TIE PEACE MESSENGERS.
There is next to no doubt that Horace
Greeley has really gone to Niagara Falls for
the purpose Of comforting with George San
ders and Beverly Tucker, touching methods
and plans of bringing about peace, as he
did some months ago with VIM. Cornell
Jewctt, vallandigham aud the French Minis
tiers. signincant1y enough, at about the
same time Mr.. John R, Gilmore, who, under
the ron dt plume Of Edmund Krke, has writ
ten several books which are published By
the New York T1i6un<, {one ofthem ''among
the Pines y has returned ii company with
Col. jacques, of the 73d Illinois, from
visit to Richmond, with a similar purpose In
view.
Tie coincidence is the more remarkable
when one knows that Mr. Gilmore came to
Washington weeks ago, and sought to visit
the army in the capacity Of a correspondent
of the New York Tribune, to which journal
| he is permanently attached, writing for no
other paper. The Journals which profess to
| give IN account Of the visit Of these last
named persons, and at great length, succeed
i'll telling their readers nothing, anu fail to
disclose the essential point established by
the mission, viz: That Jefferson Davis de-
clared that he could not treat for peace upon
any basis, except that Of u recognition Of the
| Southern Contedcracy. This at least is the re-
port of these eelf:appolnted commissioners
to the Government here.
/ TIE LATE RAID.
There are many rumors and some facts rel
atiye to the situation in the Shenandoah
Valley. The enemy was first brought to
stand near Leesburg, and soon discovered
that there were ut least three separate
columns in pursuit. Skir1nlsh fighting en-
sued for two or three days. Small bodies o
the enemy succeeded in escaping, bnt th'
main force was gradually pushed to ~fh'
, westward, through the mountains. 1mbode1
in attempting to create a diversion towar'
Winchester, was fallen upon By AycriH an
roughly handled. There are reports to'da
on which come reliance is placed, tha
the other division was attacked thl
morning with what reeult is not known
There are Fufnors that forces are coming
, from Richmond to help Breckenridge oul
but they do not us get rest on any goo
