There are but few officers left, and these are over whelmed with work. Lee telegraphed Davis at three p. m, of Sunday that he was driven back and must evacuate. This was announced in church. Davis had sold his furniture previously at auction, and was ready to leave. All the leading men got away that evening, The rebel iron-clads were exploded. The _ Virginia lies sunk in the James river above the obstructions. Ewell "Set the city on fire. All the business portion of Main street to the river was de stroyed. The bridges across the river were also destroyed. Many of the families remain. ,Mrs. Lee remains. At Petersburg tlie public stores were burn ed, and a tew houses caught fire, but not much damage was done to the city. The bridges there were also destroyed. I will report fully from Richmond. I cannot get a clear idea of our loss. The only general killed is Potter is dangerously wounded in the groin. Gen. Grant has commanded the armies in person since the beginning of the operations. . C. A. Dana, Assistant Secretary of War. SECRETARY STANTON’S SECOND DESPATCH. War Washington, April S —TO P. M. >' Major General John A.

The President went to Richmond yester dav and returned to City Point to-day. The Surgeon General reports that Mr. Seward, who was thrown lrom his carriage this evening, is doing well, llis arm was broken between the elbow and the shoulder. His face was much bruised. The fracture has been reduced, and the case presents no alarming symptoms. Ed>vin M. Stanton, Secretary of War. SECRETARY' STANTON’S THIRD DESPATCH. War Department,* > Washington, April s—ll5 — 11 r. M.) To Major Gen. John A. Dix, New York : General Grant telegraphs to this depart ment from Nottoway Court House as fol lows : Last night General Sheridan was on the Danville Railroad, south of Amelia Court House, and sent word to General Meade, who was following with the Second and Sixth Corps by wlmt is known as the River road, that if the troops could be got up in time lie had linprs of capturing or dispersing the whole of Lee's army. I am moving with the left wing,command ed by General Ord, by the Cox or direct Burkesville road. We will be to-night at or near Burkesville. I hive had no communication with Sheri dan or Meade to-day, hut hope to hear very soon that they have come up with and cap-, lured or broken up the balance of the Army of Northern Virginia. In every direction we hear of the men of that, army going home,' generally without arms. ’ * t Sheridan reports Lee at Amelia Cour House to-da}’. Edwin M. Stanton, Secretary of War. SECRETARY STANTON’S FOURTH DESPATOH. War Department, ) Washington, April s—lo 20 p. m.> Major Gen. John A. Dix, New York : The following details respecting the cap ture of Richmond and its occupation by the Union forces have been telegraphed to this department from that city. Edwin M. Stanton, Secretary ol War. Gen. Weitzel learned at three o’clock on the morning of Monday, that Richmond was being evacuated, and at daylight moved for ward, first taking care to give his men break fast in the expectation that they might have to fight. He met no opposition, and on en tering the city was greeted with hearty wel come lrom the mass of the people. The Mayor went out to meet him and to surren der the city, hut missed him on the road. . General Weitzel finds imrch suffering and poverty among the population. The rich as well as the poor are destitute of food. He is about to issue supplies to all who take the oath. The inhabitants now number about twenty thousand, half of them of African descent. It is not true that Jeff. Davis sold his fur niture before leaving. It is all in his house, where lam now writing. He left at Tp. m. by the Danville Railroad. All the members of Congress escaped.— Hunter has gone home. Carson Smith (?) went with the army. Judge Campbell re mains here. General Weitzel took here one thousand prisoners, besides the wounded. These number live thousand, in nine hospitals. He captured cannon to the number of at least five hundred pieces. Five thousand muskets have been found in one lot. Thirty locomotives and three hundred cars are found here. The Petersburg railroad bridge is totally destroyed ; that of the Danville road par tially, so that connection with Petersburg cannot easily be made. All the rebel vessels aredestroyed, except an unfinished ram, which has the machinery in her perfect. The Tredegar Works are unharmed, and the machinery here to-day, under General Weitzel’s orders. Libby Prison and Castle Thunder have also escaped the fire,and are filled with rebel prisoners of war. Most of the editors have fled—especially John Mitchell. The Whig appeared yester day as a Union paper, with the name of the lormer proprietor at the head. The Theatre opens here to-night. General Weitzel describes the reception of the President yesterday as enthusiastic m the extreme. THE OFFICIAL WASHINGTON BULLE TINS OF APRIL 4TH. Washington, April 4—11.15 a. m. To Major Geu. Dix, New York : The following particulars, dated at City Point, April 4—B a. m., give tlie latest infor mation received from Richmond: General Weitzel telegraphs from Richmond that of the railroad stock lie fouudjhere twenty-eight locomotives, forty-four passen ger and baggage cars, and one huudred and six freight cars. At 3.30 last evening General Grant, from Sutherland Station, ten miles from Peters burg, towards Burksviile, telegraphs as fol lows: “General Sheridan picked up one thousand two hundred prisoners > to-day, and from three hundred to five hundred more have been gathered bywther troops. The majori ty of the arms that were left in the hands of tlie remnant of Lee’s army are now scattered between Richmond and where his troops are. The country is also full of stragglers, and the line of retreat marked with artillery, am munition, burned or charred wagons, cais sons, ambulances, &c.” Edwin M. Stanton, Secretary of War. Washington, April 4, 11 p. m. * Major-General Dix, New York : The following telegram from Gen. Grant has just now reached this Department. At what hour to-day it left him does not appear, hut probably in the afternoon. No details of the casualties have been received, but. they are expected here to-morrow. The statement that official information had been received of Gen. Custer’s having been killed, is not true. He was unharmed late this afternoon. E. M. Stanton, Secretary of War. • Wilton’s Station, Va , April 4. Hon. E. M. Stanton, Secretary of War: The army is pushing forward in the hope of overtaking or dispersing the remainder of Lee’s army. Sheridan, with his cavalry " and the Fifth Corps, is between this and the Appo mattox. General Meade, with the Second and Sixth, following. General Ord follow ing the line of the South Side Railroad. All of the enemv that retains anything like or ganization, have gone North of the Appom attox and are apparently heading for Lynch burg, their losses having been Very heavy. 'ihe houses through the country are nearly all used as hospitals for wounded men. In every direction I hear of rebel soldiers push ing for home, some in large and gome in small squads, and generally without arms.— Tlie cavalry have pursued so closely that the I enemy have been forced to destroy probably the greater part of their transportation, cais- I sons and munitions of war. The number of prisoners captured yester day will exceed two thousand. From the 28th of March to the present time our loss in killed, wounded and captured will probably not reach seven thousand, of whom from fif teen hundred to two thousand are captured, and manjMfut slightly wounded. I shall continue the pursuit as long as there appears to be any use in it. U- S. Grant, Lieut. Gen. GOLD. Gold closed down town, in New York, on the f>tb, at 1;»3 1-8. At the evening- board it closed at 152 7-8. Drowned. —Yesterday afternoon, private Lewis Perry, of Cos. %, the 76th New' York Volunteer Battallion, while bathing in the dock, foot of Abercorn street, was drowned. The deceased ventured beyond the dock, and not lieing a swimmer he was soon in the under"'current of the river.* Private Perry was aged 19 years, native of the State of New York, and was recently enlisted. Steamer Blacksßone Excursion to Charleston.— All persons going must be aboard by 9 1-2 o’clock to-morrow morning. A person who was present at the recent eruption of Mount Etna says : “It will give you an idea of the amount of lava when w r e tell you \ye made the size of this one bank or strewn of lava (there are seven in aIL,-and tins is not the largest,) of which the onward movement is stopped, to be at its end (which is rather more than ten .miles from the crater) at least 35 feet high and upward of 1,500 feet wide, a tim.k smoking mass.” SHEBMAJV. NEW BERN CORRESPONDENCE OP THE NEW YORK HERALD. Nf.wbern, N. C., March 31—A. M. The sensation which we experienced here last Saturday, in th« arrival and departure of Gen. Sherman, who was then on liis-way to Fortress Monroe and City Point, was renew ed yesterday in the return of the General to this point, and his departure for the front, at Goldsboro, last evening. He accepted the hospitalities of Quartermaster Kimball's roof tlie most of the day, but in l the afternoon took tea at the house of General Palm er. He was accompanied by his brother, Senator Sherman.and also by Major General Leggett, a son of Stanton, and Gen. McCullam, the general military railroad manager. The most of them accompanied him to the front last night. TBe General ar rived here under peculiar circumstances.— He came around from Fortress Monroe on the steamer Bat, an old blockade runner, whicli he was informed at Hatteras Inlet ought not to go any further, for the reason that she would be sure to break down. He ordered her to go ahead, however, until she did break down. Sure enough, about six or seven miles below here she did “collapse,” and nearly all on boaid were anxious to wait till help came along. But not so with the General; lie took a yawl boat and was rowed up to the city, arriving here by that method of conveyance early yesteruay morning.—> The walk in front of Captain Kimball's resi dence and office was crowded more or less through the day while he was there with au anxious party, who seemed determined to catch a glimpse of the great hero of the day. He kept quite close, however, except to such officers as he wanted to see. He rode out once in a carriage in the course of the day, aud come near being disabled in a raannei that would not have been quite as glorious as upon the battle field. The team ran away, the horses running the carriage up against something, and jumping out of the harness at a break-neck speed. No one was injured, and all w T as soon righted again. GENERAL SHERMAN ON PEACE AND THE END OP THE WAR. I understand that the General remarked to a person who called upon him while here, that peace with the rebels was all “played out ” now, and that hereafter it was to be fought out to the end. lie also felt encour aged that the end is not far distant. In fact, while upon that subject, I would also say that in addressing a portion of liis troops at Goldsboro, when reviewing them, just after 'their arrival there, he remarked to them “that they were to keep marching on for the present, but that before the expiration of four months he expected' to be ready to mus ter out one of the bravest and best armies that ever trod||the earth.” I understand that he says his army is large enough, and that he will not accept of any new troops. He says that he is not going to take new men now, and let them share the glory which his old troops have been so long in earning aud have had to work so hard for. Johnston’s army and position. Nothing has been undertaken by Johnston since the battle of Bentousville. His troops are partially in the vicinity of Smithfield, on the railroad fromGoldsbOio to Raleigh. Both Raleigh and Weldon are being fortified. The rebels hardly know' which to expect,whether Sherman will next move on Raleigh or Wel don. If he should see fit to go to Weldon he will undoubtedly meet with some op position there; for it is being additionally fortified, and it is well protected by nature. The bridge that crosses the river there is very long and very high, and tlie rebels will undoubtedly destroy it, after all other re sources have failed, should Sherman see fit to move in that direction. Depend upon it that it wifi not take many weeks for Sher man’s army to become thoroughly refitted, and then there will be a grand move. Gen’. Schofield’s command has been reincorporat ed in the army, and it will occupy the centre of the Army of Invasion. General Howard has been in command of the army in General Sherman’s absence. The rebels are building a formidabl e ram at Halifax, on the Roanoke river, a few miles south of Weldon, and they couut upon great assistance from it in case we should strike in that direction. Odr New Postmaster.— Among the pas sengers by the Fulton last Monday, was Col. C. It. Brayton, our netv postmaster here, come down to assume the duties of his office’. Cal. Brayton is well known in this Depart ment, where he served long and faithfully iu the 3d Rhode Island Artillery. From the ranks of a line officer he rose to the com mand of one of the finest artillery' regiments in the service, and for a time before leaving the army, was Chief of Artillery on the D<£ partment Staff. He served much longer than his three years term, and among the active operations in which he war prominent ly engaged, was the important campaign of ’G3 on Morris Island. He commanded the post of Hilton Head, and also the District, at different times, and was always popular as well as efficient. In coming here he ineeta a host of friends who warmly welcome : him, and who look for au efficient civil of , ficer in him. We are glad to learn that Mr. Bellamy, the efficient assistant postmaster, who has, since the death ot Mr. Lee, been acting postmas ter, wil probably remain in the office as Col Braytou's assistant.— Port Royal Neio South. 5 MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT.
