LOUISVILLE, KY, June ID.
An officer from the front reports that on
Friday the rebel Gen Wheeler, with large
force Of cavalry, appeared at Calhoun. on the
railroad between Chattanooga and our army.
They seized six cars loaded with grain and
cut the telegraph. The train coming north
was notified at Addersvile and stopped
Gen Hovey was aboard and collected two
hundred convalescents, whom he forme into
a line of battle in front Of the train and NOV
ed cautiously on. At Calhoun it was found
that the rebels had retreated.
The train then moved toward Resacs, but
about half way an enormous torpedo explod-
ed, hurting the locomotive six feet from the
track, and tearing four cars into splinters.-
Fortunately the troops were in the last car
and escaped. Nobody, was seriously injur-
ed. The train passed on in the evening to
Resaca.
The same night Wheeler again appeared on
the railroad below Calhoun and tore up
considerable portion of track, which has since
been repaired and trains are again running.
A gentleman who left the front on the 9th
inst, says our cavalry in a reconnaissance
found light force of rebel cavalry. which
after some severe diminishing, fell back and
crossed the Chattahooohie.
Prisoners report that the whole rebel army
are on the south side of that river, and are
determined TO oppose its passage by our
troops to the Last. The river is much swollen
and no serious engagement can occur until
it fall.

The registration of births, marriages, and
deaths in Vermont for the year 1861 has just
appeared, the publication being delayed by
an emission of the usual appropriation. 1t
gives great deal Of valuable information in
reference to these three important eras in
human existence, their relations to the health,
social condition, and political economy of the
state. The births were 6567, the deaths A.
03s. the marriages 2ls8, and the divorses &c,
of which only IS were for scriptural cause.
About two-thirds of the divorces were grant
ed to wives. More than twenty per cent. OF
the deaths were from consumption, and near
ly twelve per cent. from diptheria. The per-
centage Of deaths was 81 OF the entire pop
ula.ion. A little more than the average. 1t
is gratifying to observe that with each return
ing year, the reports are becoming more &C.
curate, and the differences from them more
reliable.
One fact brought TO light by comparison
Of the registrations for the last five years
with the census of 1860, is not an agreeable
one for Vermonter to contemplate. While
the state has increased its population 1869,
by our ascertained excess of births over
deaths, it has lost by emigration l3,2l0, leav-
ing only the small number of 4S9 as the net
gam IN DNe years. n sun closer anAlybl
shows that this loss by emigration is not ap-
portioned uniformly among the population,
with respect to age or condition, but is limit
ed almost entirely to those in youth or mid
die life, producers OF wealth rather than the
consumers. Such depletion as this, con-
tinued for series OF years, cannot fail to tell
disasirously upon all the interests of the state,
and has already done 80 in some parts of IT,
And when il is further considered that mul-
titudes Of our young men have laid down
their lives in the service Of the country. it il
impossible not to see that Vermont is dimin.
ishing in population, and as a necessary con.
sequence, is suffering loss in all it's interests
material, intellectual, and moral.--P. II. W.
IN Oongregdt,ondtst
The remedy is to persuade our young mel
that Vermont is the best place to live, thrv
and die in ana Il Is so. Land is compare
lively high and taxes are heavy but our in
situations are fixed, our roads made, GU
farms fenced. and Of all the first rate agricul
tural states, Vermont 10 nearest to the gres
markets. IL takes little more time to sta,
in Vermont, because little more capital /
requiredi but we believe that Vermont make
more moneyon her agricultural capital tbs
any Of the other states.

The Marietta ga Rebel tells the follow
ing remarkable story:
THE most remarkable case Of gunshot
wound we ever heard Of is that Of a soldier
wounded at Resaca, brought to Marietta OF
Wednesday, and now in the hospital at tina
place Two bullets passed through his head
making four holes, at which the brains wa'
oozing out, and, astonishing to tell, he was
perfectly conscious, and conversed intelli
gently concerning his situation, and was anx
ious to know the doctors opinion Of his case.
The Richmond Dispatch of Saturday men
tons rumor of Wade Hampton having
6ght with Gen. Sheridan's cavalry west o
Richmond, where the Yankees were endea
voring to reach the Canal Locks on the Jame
river.
The correspondent Of the Atlanta Ga In
telligencer with Johnston, writes that u fore,
had been dispatched under Choimers to at
tack Chattanooga. At last accounts he wal
marching on the town.
The rebels stole the buttons off from Gen
Seymours coat while he was being takei
from the Wilderness to Macon, Georgia, an'
the Richmond papers endeayor to conceal tn
mean theft by saying that they fell off.
