NEw YORK, Jan. 3O.-The Times Sa.
Vannah correspondent of the 10Th says:
The last of Sherman's army leaves Ss.
vannah Tomorrow. The lst brigade, Sd
division of tho goth corps was at Shade
vile when last heard from.
The Herald's Washington despatch Gays
the Navy Department have received coz
trmatory intelligence thata telegraph wire
was discovered after the explosion of Fort
Fisher, leading across Cape Fear River
aud about two miles into the rebel lines.
There is little doubt the magazine was
purposely exploded by the rebels.
All peace negotiations with Richmond
are now very thoroughly exploded, though
negotiations are expected from other quar-
ters, perhaps by proclamations from the
Governors of Georgia and North Carolina.
ltis stated thatit was part of the object
of Secretary Stanton's visit to Savannah
to advise with Gen. Sherman, if the rebels
should propose terms of peace, to hold
himselfin readiness on behalf of his gov.
ernment to accept.
II is stated that the passport order will
be rescinded 30 far as it applies to Cam
ada, but will be continued as regards Nova
Scotia.

From the Southwest.

Nav YoRK, Jan. 3O.-The Herald's St.
Louis correspondent gives the outlines of a
reported rebel project west Of the Missis-
siPpi, of an extraordinary character. 1t is
to the effect that Gen. Kirby Smith, com
manding the rebel Trans Mississippi De.
Partment, including all the rebel territory
and troops west of the Mississippi river,
has been for some time negotiating for a
transfer of all his force to the Emperor
Maximillian of Mexico. 1t is anticipated
that If Gen. Smith does contemplate this
Important transfer of his services, he will
have some difficulty in effecting it, as the
rebel troops of that region always law
less and semi -disorganized set of wild
characters, have become additionally de-
moralized since the death of old Sterling
Price, their favorite chief, and may resist
this wholesale military colonization.
The Herald publishes the rebel army
roster, which it says was obtained from the
most authentic source. The figures ac.
eomPanylng the organization show that the
tuil strength of the rebels is only one hum
dred and sixty eight thousand nine hun
dred and fifty men of all arms This is
their fullest strength. These forces are
scattered from the James TO the Red rivers.
and from the Atlantic coast to the Indian
territories. -.
It IS shown very conclusively that tue
only army upon which the rebels can de-
pend is the army of Northern Virginia.
thls ID the only organization which the
enemy has deserving the name, and the
only army which we now have to over
come.

Mr.. BIair's Peace Mission.
Tor Later Dispatches see Sd Page.

New YORK, Jan. 3o.-The Herald's
Washington special says the mission of
Blair to Richmond was not, as has been
generally supposed, an entire failure, but
that it resulted in fully disclosing the fact
that many of the rebel chiefs are desirous
OF peace, and are willing to submit to much
mora reasonable terms than their neWspa-
per organs would lead us to suppose, but
that all are SO Jealous aud Watchful of each
other that no one dares to make an ad
vance for fear of being made the victim of
some desperate and relentless faction.
Another correspondent says that weneed
not be surprised to soon hear of terms for
peace in the proclamations of the Govern
ors of Georgia and North Carolina.
The Tribune's special says the only new
development as to tho Blair mission, is re-
ported by two members of the House, who
dlned with the returned envoy. Although
they are democratic, they state that Mr..
Blair said that JEFF. Davis entreated him
to effect the passage of the constitutional
amendment abolishing slavery; that he
confessed that the war had uprooted and
destroyed slavery; that it had induced dis.
union, and that the hope of being able yet
to save slavery and re.enthrone il was the
only obstacle to peace and the restoration
of the UEion. This was told me on the
floor of the House on Saturday. Bets were
Instantly offered by peace democrats that
MIR. Blair had never uttered word of what
was imputed to him.

New YORK Jan. 3O.-The Tribune has
leading article on recognition intrigue, in
which it says it has obtained clue to
a European complot wherefrom the slave
holding rebels are comforting themselves
with hopes of powerful and speedy aid to
their sinking cause. Its outline is that at an
early stage Of the rebellion JEFF. Davis sent
a Roman Catholic Bishop, Lynch of South
Carolina, to Europe to search for sympa-
thisers and allies, but to make Rome the
focus of operations. 1t was not difficult for
him to convince the master spirits of Eu-
ropeau reaction and absolution that the
slaveholders rebellion was identical in
spirit with their cause and enlist their
sympathy. Bot Bishop Lynch went fur
ther, and assured magnates of the Gath
olic church that its expansion and pre-
dominance throughout the hemisphere
would be assured by the triumph of the
rebels. In Difference to these representa-
tions, secret lesgue of the Roman
Catholic powers of France, Spain and Aus.
tria, under the guidance of the Pope, has
been formed, pledged to recognize the Con-
federacy after the 4th of next March, on
the ground that it did not take part in the
Presidential election The Tribune also
learns that the rebels anticipate fresh
assault on Richmond; that 10 case they
cannot hold it they will burn it to the
ground, to show Christendom that they
would rather be eIterminated than subju-
gated.

Rebel Dread OF shorman's Ne1tMovs.
Correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch.
CHARLESTON. Jan l6


Sherman has commenced his movement
against Charleston aud Branchville. A
refugee from Savannah, who arrived here
on the 18th, stated that he had sent one
corps mp the west bank of the Savannah
towards Augusta; that the second corps
had gone to Wilmington, and that two
corps were moving around by water to
Beaufort. The corps sent up the west
bank of the Savannah, it has since been
ascertained, was recalled after it had pro-
ceeded come fifteen miles.
The force despatched to Beaufort, how
ever, moved out from Port Royal on the
18th, and on the l4th itrencounteEed our
advance, Colcook's cavalry, and drove it
back on Pocotaligo, which was evacuated
by General McLaws during the following
night, without loss of men CT material.
General McLsws took upa position behind
the Oombahee, after destroying The bridges
by which he crossed that river. From Po-
cotaligo to Branchville the distance does
not exceed torty.6Ve miles, and can be
easily accomplished in three days.
The enemy once firmly established on
the rail road either at Branchville or some
point nearer Augusta, and the fall of
Charleston becomes only a question of
time, and short time at that. We NAV
leave it to the President and Gen'I Lee to
decide what effect such movement would
have upon Richmond and the army of
Northern Virginia. At BranchVille Sher-
mans Aanks would be protected by the
Edisto and its swamps on the left, and by
the Santee and its swamps on the right,
whilst his bise at Charleston would be uu-
assailable either by land or water. If the
official telescope of the capital could be
elevated just. take in that part of
the Coutederacy which lies beyond the
boundaries of Virginia it would be well.
iaA "PRoDucIEa BAD EFFECTS"
Leaving the military aspect of the ques-
ton entirely out of consideration, the au-
thorities cannot fail to understand that the
failure to reinforce the army IN Georgia
and South Carolina is producing very bad
effects. The enemies both of the cause an
OF the President are taking advantage of
this omission, to cali it by no harsher
name, and are multiplying difficulties in
every way, The retention of Charleston
is not, as many of its inhabitants imagine,
Indispensable to our success, but the reten-
ton ofthe military line from Kinsville to
AUGUSTA is.

THE duty of silent obedience, SO essen

of the war Gen. Grant gave good advice
to a friend of his who had been made q

"Colonel, you have not been accustomed
to military life, and let me give you little
advice. Always obey orders, snd perform
as near as you know how, what you are
told to do. Though you may think at times
and justly, too, that you are overlooked
and Rronged, do not make any complaints,
or quarrel with your brother officers. By
so doing, you will secure, in time, honor

a suggestion to our Legislature
Editors IntelLigencsr:
1t appears that proposition is now
pending in the Legislature, which contem-
plates radical change in our city school
law. Believing that at least ninety nine
hundredths of the citizens of Wheeling are
in blissful ignorance of the nature of the
contemplated change, and believing that
to the future welfare and prosperity of the
city should be attempted without some
expression favorable thereto on the part OF
the citizens, 1t is respectfully suggested
that the bill now before the Legislature be
submitted to vote of the people of the
city at the ensuing spring election, before
becoming law.
