and JOhnStOn.
NEW YoRx, April 26.-By a special
dispatch to the Times, from Washington
last night, we have information from Sher-
mans army Of an important character. II
appears Johnston's first letter to Sherman
proposed the surrender of his army on the
same terms as Lee surrendered. Another
meeting was arranged, at which Wade
Hampton was present. He protested
against the terms Of surrender, and declar-
ed he would not surrender his cavalry
force, supposed to be about 5000 strong.
Thereupon Sherman consented to delay,
for the purpose of giving Johnston and
Hampton an opportunity to consult Davis.
Another meeting was arranged for the
next day, when the parties again met. At
the first sitting the remarkable memoran-
DUN Of the basis Of agreement was pre-
scented and at once signed.
The Times Raleigh correspondent, of
the 18th, says the conferences between
Sherman and Johnston have come to a
conclusion which il believed in the army
to be eminently satisfactory. What pass
ed at the interview they had, was proba-
bly, known only to themselves. When
they met they locked arms and walked
together into house. where the confer.
ence took place, and there shut themselves
up for several hours, leaving their respec.
tive followers and staff officers to frater.
nize and get along as best they could. No
one who accompanied Sherman has any
idea what subjects were discussed, or what
terms proposed, accepted or declined.
Sherman is never a communicative man
with respect TO matters of importance, and
on this occasion he is even more silent
than usual. y

The Raleigh Standard Of the 18th says:
The revolution has failed. Mr.. Lincoln
has made good his declaration that he
would hold. occupy and possess the forts
and other property Of the United States,
and that he would enforce the laws Of the
nation. The most ultra secessionist must
now see that further resistance would be
folly, madness and murder. Il calls for
reorganization, and declares that the Gov
eminent and Legislature elected by force
and fraud does not reflect the wishes of
the people. Bayonets controlled every
thing. We are authorized by Sherman to
say, that il Gov. Vance and the Legisla.
ture will return they will be protected. If
they do not they must not complain if
steps be taken to supersede them. Yes.

Vance had fed I; Smith had Aed secession
is dead treason has been extinguished in
its own blood, and the old flag once more
waves proudly over the capital of every
State. Thank God for it. The period so
long looked for and labored for by the
true men Of this State has at last arrived.
Let those who have identified themselves
with the Davis and Vance despotisms
prepare to retire to private life. Politi-
cally they are doomed men for all tine to
come. t-EE q = r
