From Richmond.

WASHINGTON, April 22.-The Richmond
wing OF yesterday says: For some days it
has been reported here that the so-called
Confederate Government, consisting of jeff.
Davis and the handful of his officers and
soldiers, had escaped to Augusta, Ca, and
made show to establish itself there, pre-
paratory to flight to the Trans Mississippi.
General Lee and staff, or rather those who
accompanied him to Richmond, were yes
terday photographed in groups.
The first auction sale since the occupa-
tion of Richmond by the Federal forces was
held yesterday at the auction house of E.
b. Cook, Main street. The auctioneer came
down very gracefully out OF the Confeder-
crate atmosphere of $50 and $40 bids, and
took very good naturedly the bids of so
cts. and 81 in currency.
The ordinance of secession was adopted
by Virginia on the 18th of April, 1861, by a
vote of yeas SS, nays 50. Among those who
voted in the negative were John Janley,
OF Loudon, the venerable President of the
convention; John B. Baldwin, of Augusta.
late Representative in the Confederate Con-
gress from the tenth Congressional district;
Geo. w. Brent formerly Gen. Bragg's Ad-
jutant General; w. IL. B. Curtis, of Acco-
mac; VIM. IL. Delany, of Fairfax; Jubal A.
Early, formerly commander of the depart
ment of the Valley; j. G.. Holiday, OF

In dispatch dated Mobile, 5 P. M, April
I4th, MaJor-General Candy reports as fol-
lows ..tf : ',''r'7 ID
We find in Mobile and defenses on the
west side OF the bay, over $50 guns and a
very large amount Of ammunition and sup
plies OF all kinds, and about one thousand
prisoners. Inventories are now being taken
and detailed report will be forwarded as
soon as they are completed The quantity
OF cotton will probably reach 5000 bales,
and there is a large amount of prisoners
and forage.
Major-General Hancock reports that near
ly all of Mosby's command have surren-
deered, including nearly or quite all of the
officers except Mosby himself. Some of
Mosby's own men are hunting for re-
ward of $4,000, offered for him by Cen
Hancock, who has been directed to estab-
llsh his headquarters Mt Washington.
The counties of Prince George. Charles
and st. Mary's have during the whole war
been noted for hostility to the government,
and its protection to rebel blockade
runners, rebel spies and every species
OF public enemy. The murderer of
the President harbored there before
the murder, and Booth fled in that
direction. If he escapes it will be owing to
rebel accomplices in that direction. The
military commander of the department will
surely take measures to bring these rebel
and accomplices in the
murder TO q sense of their criminal
conduct.

Sherman's Army-JOhnstOn'sS Sur.
acknowledgements Of Wilson'S
CaYaIrY-CnptmreO Of Selma.

New YORK, April 22.-The Herald's
Washington dispatch says Gen. Sheridan at
City Point on Thursday night received q
communication from Gen. Sherman, an
nQuncing the full surrender of the rebel
Gen. Johnston's army.
The Herald's correspondent at Goldsboro
says that on Sunday last the disposition of
Gen. Stoneman's force was such as to in
sure Johnston's capture in very short
time. Fitzpatrick had pursued the rebels
some thirty miles beyond Raleigh without
meeting any resistance from them, Raleigh
being in the undisputed possession of the
National forces. The railroad was being
rapidly repaired, and trains would be run
ming through to that city from Wilmington
and Newbern in few days.
The majority of the people of North Car
olina, wherever Gen. Sherman's troops pen
etrated, are represented as being exceeding
ingly anxious to be allowed to resume their
position in the Union, and perfectly willing,
| to attain that object to give up the insttu-
tion of slavery entirely.
| The old 10th army corps has been reor-
ganized and is commanded by Gen. Terry.
The Herald's correspondent details move
ments OF the cavalry column under General
Wilson. The first resistance met by Gen.
eral Wilson's troops was at Monticello,
where, after a short engagement, Roddy's
rebels were routed. They retreated, skirm-
ing for about twenty-seven miles, when, on
the lst inst, having formed junction with
Forrest, Lyon and Chalmers, the first named
took command and the rebels again made
stand and were driven in every direction,
with the loss of 1000 killed and wounded,
over 200 prisoners and three pieces of ar
tillery. They then retreated to Selma,
where, behind very strong works, an obsti-
nate defence was prepared for. On the
next day, the I'd, General Wilson moved to
the attack of this place, and after about an
hour of severe fighting the Notifications
were carried by assault and his troops en-
tered the town, capturing over 1000 pris-
oners, 100 cannon, large numbers of horses
and mules, and immense quantities of sup
plies, &c. Besides these there fell into Gen.
Wilson's possession millions of dollars
worth of cotton, large arsenal, naval iron
works and other manufactures; all of which,
together with many buildings belonging to
prominent rebels, were destroyed.
