THE BANQUET AND DEPARTURES

The banquet at the International was the
closing act OF the ovation, and was q maanif-
cent one in every respect. At O'Clock about
100 guests sat down to q splendid supper,
which N its arrangements and profuseness was
and managed by r. E. Kittredge of the Inter
national, and Is enough to stamp that gentle
man at once as very prince of caterers.
Alter ample justice had been done 70 the
viands, and about an hour consumed at the
table, Governor Miller arose. and calling the
attention Of the company, said that Mr.. Lawler,
President Of the Packet Company, had re.
quested him to state that the hour was ADJ

Gov. Miller accompanied him to the BALCONY

their torches (ready to escort him to the

DIR. Gwin and the Emperor NapO-
leon. r

SAN Francisco, March 1.-The Democrat
of this city, which affects to be well inform
ed concerning the plans and movements of
DR.. Gwin, denies emphatically, on authority
of his agents, that the Emperor Napoleon
has withdrawn from the Sonora coloniza-
tion scheme, as was intimated by eastern
dispatches. 1t says: From sources of infor-
nation which we deem reliable, we have
abundant assurances that there has been no
change in the plans of the Emperor recent
ly, while the cause of the Mexican empire
is advancing as rapidly as could be reason-
ably expected.
When the steamer John S. Stephens left
Mazatlan there were several thousand
French troops there. Advices have been
received that Marshal Bayzaine, with the
main portion of his army, was on his way
to Mazatlan and might be expected there in
a few days, accompanied by DIR. Gwin.
1t is barely possible that DR.. Gwin. did
not sail for Europe at later date than
the news we have received from the
City of Mexico; but if such is the fact,
his visit has no reference to a change
of plans, as it is not in contemplation to
take possession of Aricho, the future capital
of the Northern States, before the lst of
May. 1t is not intended to make the States
over which DR.. Gwin will have control
portion of the French empire, or French
colony. Paramont authority is to reside in
the Emperor OF Mexico, while the territory
is held in trust for the payment of the
French debt and to be defended by French
arms.

Rebel Accounts from Sherman
Lee and Grant Preparing for a
big Battle.

DhtLI0s
New YORK, March 3.-Signifeant and
important hints regarding affairs in North
and South Carolina are thrown out by yes
terday's Richmond Examiner. Itintimates
that Sherman and Schofeld have formed
junction near Goldsboro, in the former
State, and says there is reason to fear that
Hood, as we'll as Hardee, has been cut off
from uniting with johnson. 1t was Har-
dee's force which held Charleston, and on
evacuating it he marched northward as
rapidly as possible, for the purpose of join
ing Beauregard, then at the head of the ar
my now commanded by johnson.
Correspondence from the armies before
the rebel capital represent every thing quiet,
but it is evident that on both sides the be-
lief is that this state of affairs will not con-
tinue great while longer. Indications of
rebel designs to essay another raid with
their James river fleet are daily manifested,
and Richmond papers give additional re-
ports regarding heavy massing by Gen.
Grant on the left, to which point they say
he moved his cavalry, the main portion OF
his infantry and number of pieces of ar
tillery. All this, they say, means desper-
ate battle at an early day. or at least as soon
as the roads shall be in proper condition.
Deserters still report preparations for the
evacuation of Petersburg. The rebels are
busily engaged in improving their defenses
of torpedoes, in the James river.
Paymasters have been for some days oc-
cupied in. paying off the Army of the James
for January and February.
The Richmond Examiner of the 2Sth ult.
says there was a renewal yesterday of re-
ports we had had sometime ago Of move
ments of the enemy's cavalry in the north
ern counties of Virginia. 1t is reported by
passengers from that part of the country
that the enemy have division and brigade
of cavalry at Lovettsville, in Loudon coun-
ty; also a cavalry force at Salem in Fair
fax, and another force in the lower valley.

As an instance of the advantage enjoyed
by the possessor of good Sewing Machine,
over those who are less fortunate, we cite
the following: ..r ....,g..--.q
Four ladies with two Sewing Machines
(if they had had one each, they would have
done better) have in the past FIVE DAYS
MADE ONE HUNDRED SHIRTS, and only work.
ednine hours and a half each day, or in other
words, MADE A SHIRT IN LESS THAN TWO
HOURS, for five consecutive days. The ladies
win appreciate this, when told that these
shirts were large sized, with LAPPED SEAMS
on shoulders and sleeves and folded fronts
aoith buttons, large cuffs and turndoton collars
double atickaess). The skirts--also theopen-
ing In front, and at the wrists were hemn,ed
and stitched, leaUing no ra,o edges, in fact good
shirts and well made, but 1t is not with eve,y
kind of machine so much could be accomplish
ed. This work was done by the GROVER
AND BAKER MACHINE, which requires no re-
toinding Of threads, and fastens its own work
off better than could be done by hand.
These are the same machines that have taken
the premium at every State and County Fair
at which they have been exhibited, for the
last two years, as being the best for family
use. They can be purchased at 14s South
High Street. Call and see them. nv ,o. ',e ,,6, 2,

The Presidents Inaugural-De-
.f1 Aerters. 5f

New YORK, March 3.-The Herald's
Washington special says: The Presidents
Inaugural Address will probably be the
briefest one ever delivered. 1t is announced
that the reading of it will not occupy more
than from five to eight minutes.
A letter from a leading commander in the
army of the Potomac, received here to-day,
states that during the last ten days deser-
ters from the rebel army defending Rich
mond and Petersburg have averaged 14O
per day. Those now coming In are veter-
ans, as, not being able to trust conscripts,
the veterans are placed on picket exclusive
ly, but these appear to be as unreliable as
the others.

Columbia Abandoned.

. New YORK, March 3.-The Richmond
Examiner of the 2Sth says: While making
no allusion to any military movements now
in progress in the Carolinas, it is not i'm
proper to say that Columbia is now free of
the enemy, after large portion of the city
has been destroyed by fire. A rumor, which
is no doubt exaggerated, has it that three
tourths of the city was destroyed by fire,
Gen. Hampton is said to have fired his house
there himself and to have seen it burn to
the ground before he left the place.

The news from the South looks favorable,
and we hope to treat the public with pleas

says heavy rains and the consequent muddy
condition of the roads in the vicinity of Pc
