No intelligence from Atlanta later than my

telegraphic lines between Nashvil and Chat
tanooga were broken last night by Wheeler,
and we have had nothing South Of Nashville
to-day. This accounts tor the absence OF later

No doubt Is entertained here OF the correct.

came from two Independent sources, besides
the Official dispatch Of Gen. Slocum.
An Official report this evening from Nash.

to the railroad will be speedily repaired, and
that Wheeler had retreated. Gen. Rousseau is
in pursuit.
In an engagement between Rousseau's and
Wheeler's forces, the rebel General Kelly was
mortally wounded, and is in our hands.
a telegram from Gen. Sheridan states that
Early has retreated up the Shenandoah Valley
and is pursued by Sheridan with his whole
army; and that A yerill had attacked Vaughan's
cavalry, and captured twenty wagons, two
battle.fags, a number Of prisoners, and q herd
Of cattle.

MILITARY HISTORY OF CoNNEcrICUT.--Sey- eral States are preparing histories, intending to do justice to tie gallantry and patriotism of their sons who have died in the service of the Unien. The Norwich Bulletin, in referring to the fact, says
 "No State in the Union can furnish richer or more abundant material for such a work than our State of Connecticut. What distin guished niembers of our army or navy, that have offered up their lives on the altar of their country, can show a more splendid record than Lyon, and Foote, and Mansfield, and Sedg- wick? And then comes the noble army of martyrs" wlIo, though filling subordinate po- sltions, have been governed by motives as pure, exhibited patri otsm and bravery as un- doubted, and made sacrifices as great as the more prominent leaders that we have named.-- Some one should at once commence the pre- paration of such work-giving faithful his- tory of all our regiments that have been call ed into sesvice, and paying just tributes to the brave men who have lost or perilled their lives for the preservation of our liberties and man- taiGance of our government. We have heard the Hon. J. Hammond l'rumbull our Sec reta. ry of State, and Charles J. Hoadly, Esq, the State Librarian, named as the proper persons to write such history. They are both &C., compllshed scholars-both thoroughly tonyer- sant with what Connecticut has done to aid in crushing the rebellion-and eminently adapted 10 the preparation of such work. We trust that Connecticut will not be behind her sister States in doing justice to her gallant sons, whether living or dead.

Sl,ali the Soldiers Vote.

On Monday next, the 18th inst, the people of the State are called upon to express their minds upon the above question. We appre- bend there will be but meagre vote cast in opposition to the elective franchise of the soldier, at least in this county; though we could hope that the party who bitterly op- pose the administration, and, by implication at least, the prosecution of the war, had de fined their position little moro plainly than they have, upon this question so important and interesting 10 our brave boys in the field But by their fruits we shall know them, aud next Monday will show what efforts and strength they will put forth, for or against the measure
 We printed in our last issue very strong appeal from the Union State Central ConmfS- tee in favor of the proposed amendment, which the people are now called upon to rati- fly or reject, and do not design to add any thing of argument or appeal to that document at this time. We only desire to say that we cordially and unhesitatingly indorse every word of it; and call upon every loyal reader, who has vote to deposite in this State on Monday next, to do 50 in .tauer of the Sol diers Vote. Let the vote be full and hearty one, and the nearer it is unanimous, the bet tsf shall we respect the integrity of our DO 1itical opponents who cannot deny its justice but fear it's expedicncy--for their party!
 The time for holding the polls is fixed by spe- cial act at between g A. M. and P. M. and the ballot to be deposited is to be transcribed simply YES or NO. The proposed amend. ment to the Constitution reads as follows: .- {" Every elector of this State who shall be in the military service of the United States, eith- CT as drafted person or volunteer, during the present rebellion, shall, when absent from this state because of such service have the same right to vote in any election of State officers, representatives in congress, and electors of President and Vice President of the United States, as he would have if present. at the time appointed for such election, in the town in which he resided at the time of bis enlistment into such service. This provision shall in no ease extend to persons in the army of the Uni ted States. and shall cease and become inop orative and void upon the termination of the present war"

TRAVELLERS ENDURANCE COMPANY. A new Insurance company, under this name, has re gently bsen started in Hartford, and which, shodgh novelty as yet in this country, has As prototypes in England. which have been in successful operation for several years. The design of the company is to inssre travellers and others against injury and death by acciden, and, by the payment of small yearly premium entities the holder to substantial sum in case of fatal mishap. A novel feature of the plan and one that will commend itself to everybody is that it affords aoeekly compensation to its in sured, who are debarred from performing their daily labor by reason of any accident, during the time they are so incapacitated When the constant liability to injury from accident is considered, il will be seen what an immense advantage over any plan of insurance yet de- vised is this syetem of weekly compensation It is said to Ee found by actual calculation, thatfor every person killed one Hundred and .forty are injured more or less severely. The amount of compensation per week, as also the payment of a stated sum in the event of death, IS of course graded by the annual premiums, which range from $2.5o to $3o, ,OO, and insure weekly compensation of from 8 % to S25 .O0. or fixed sum of from $500 to S50OO.
 The company has been in operation but two or three months, and we understand has ak ready iSSncd policies to the amount of one and a half million of dollars. It has agencies in Litch6eld, New Milford and Winsted. Sec adv. elsewhere.

THE SEyrs.TH,RrY LOAN. The 7-30 Go,

THE SEvEN-TH1RrY IoAN The 7-30 Gov .ernment Loan is advertised in our columns to- day, and the people of this county who are truly desirous of Sustaining their Govcrhment and upholding its Financial conditidn,- which hangs not only the success of the war against the Rebellion, but the soundness and stability of the country in all the future,-are called upon to subscribe promptly and liberally to it's purchase.
 Among the advantages of this loan are it's a6soluta secasity, (the faith and credit of the United States it's liberal interest, 1.-two cents per day oa sloo, payable semi annually;) it's exemption from state and to,cn tares, and its convertibility into per cent bonds, bearing six per cent interest in gold, at the end of three years ct per. These advantages, with the grander object of upholding and sustaining the government, will, We believe, be inducements sufficient to call forth large subscription from loyal men who may have, just now. saperfui ty of money to invest. This is emphatically a peoples loan and the Government becomes g vast SAVINGS BANK, in which the people are depositors, and there are but few will not per- ceive where their interest lies, ana take prompt advantage of it. H. R. Colt Esq. of the Phe nix Branch Bank, in this village, receives sub scriptions to the loan, in sums from Fifty dollars upwards, and all respectable bankers through. out the county and State do the same.

THE DLuspER AND REFUSE AT FErERsBURc A Tribune correspondent writes of the as sault on Saturday week
 I tell no secret when Say that Grant wrap ped himself in silence oh Monday, and that his healt was gnawed at by disgust and rage-and the statement of this fact is the measure of a great soldiers appreciation of the misconduct which turned au accomplished victory into a disgraceful and rAinous disaster.
 Untll gather the sure facts of the case, will only say generally, that the commander of the corps charged with the duty and intrusted with the coveted honor of making the assault, did not accompany :he troops that led it i; tha not commander of division of the corps accompanied thel troops. that the work which their absence thus discredted and impaired was left entirely to brigade commanders, tha, the charge made by the leading force scas ,so. supported tor th,re quarters cf on hcur.
 This delay gave the rebels all the time they needed to recover. Another correspondent of the same paper says that quarrel about pre- cedence between two Mai jor Generals occasion ed the delay. Gen. Grant summoned Court of Inquiry, but 1t WAS dissolved, not being pfo- perly called. Another will be raised at once, andit is hoped the guilty general or generals will be punished. It is reported that Gen Meade will prefer charges against Gen. Burn- side
