he 15th and 16th have been received.--Dispatches from Nashville say that since Johnston's retreat from Kennesaw Mountain Sherman has picked up three thousand prisoners. The Chronicle, of the 16th, says editorially that it is now safe to say theand Baltimore in terror that they will not hesitate to repeat the experiment. The Chronicle says, editorially, that Sherman has crossed the Chattahoochee, and that Johnston is inside of the fortifications at Atlanta, and that it is not probable that Johnston, who failed to arrest Gen. Sherman in fortified mountain strongholds, will be able to detain him long before a down in an open country accessible to approaches on all sides.
