President Lincoln has issued proclnma-
tion calling together the United States Sen

The session is called simply for the purpose
OF having that body act in Executive session
Epon tho Presidents Cabinet and other nom-
nations.
The reported capture Of Branchville, s. c.,
by Gen. Sherman is confirmed. The place
was captured on the 18th inst, after three
days hard fighting. The rebels report that
klpatrick's cavalry was repulsed aud driven
five miles By Whecler's cavalry, on the 10th
snst. 1t will be remembered that the rebels
whipped Fitzpatrick number OF timcs--on
1apcr-during the march through Georgia.
The adInuce OF Sherman's army was reported
near Columbia, Tie capital Of South CaFoi'na,
at last accounts, and battle was anticipated.
LATER.-G1olious nvws CONES to us at an
carly hour this morning. through stirring
official bulletins from Stanton and Grant.

leaving the same spot lew hoars before.
Another portion of Sherman's army, It is be-
lieyed, went to Augusta and took possession
of that city. The evacuation of Charleston,
says the Richmond papers, follows as q
necessary sequence In anticipation Of q visit
to that doomed city from Sherman, the
Charleston Mtrrury has pulled up stakes and
left for 8 new base, The Richmond papers
