NEW YORK, Dee. 8.-The Herald's WASH
ington special says: In addition to the ad
missions of the Richmond papers of the 5th
instant, that General Sherman's main army
had reached Milen, the authorities have
information of unquestiouable reliability
that General Sherman's main army has al
ready passed Millen without battle, and
without the expenditure OF any ammuni
ton except what was used in the two or
three skirmishes of detacbments already
reported. Having passed Millen, there is
no opportunity for a rebel force to inter.
rupt his march to the coast, for which he
originally set out and where the supplies
and mails for that army will arrive stimuli
taneously with it's arrival. IEA &
The complete success of Shermsns great
enterprise is now beyond shadow of a
doubt, and it has been demonstrated that
all that remains of the army Of the rebel
lion is comprised in the armies of Hood I'd
Lee, both Of which will soon be rendered
powerless. - y. t-AE.sb
