important hints regarding affairs in North
and South Carolina are thrown out by yes
teFday's Richmond Examiner. Il init
mates that Sherman and schofeld have
formed a junction near Goldsboro, in the
former State, and says there is reason to
fear that Hood as we'll as Hardee has been
cut of from uniting with Johnston. 1t was
Hardee's force which held Charleston, and
on evscuating it he marched northward IS
rapidly as possible for the purpose of join
ing Beauregard, then at the left Of tho ar
my now commanded by John ton.
Correspondents before the rebel capitol
represent everything quiet, but it is evident
that this state Of affairs will not continue
great while longer.
Indications that the rebel design another
raid with their James river feet is daily
manifested.
The Richmond papers give additional re-
ports regarding the heavy massing Of Gen.
Grant on his left, to which point they say
he moved his cavalry, the main portion Of
his forces, and a rum Der Of pieces Of srtil-
lery. All this they say means desperate
battle at an early day, or at least as soon
as the roads shall be in a proper condition.
Deserters still report preparations for the
evacuation of Petersburg. The rebels are
busily engaged in improving their defences
and placing torpedoes in the JAMES River.
Paymasters have bsan for some days Oc-
cupied in paying off the Army Of the Ten
nessee for January and February.
The Richmond Examiner fthe 2sth says
there wasea renewal yesterday Of reports
we have had some time ago, Of movements
Of the enemy's cavalry in the northern
counties of Virginia. 1t is reported BY pas
sengers from that part Of the country, the
enemy have one division and brigade Of
cavalry in Loudon county, and au infantry
aud cavalry force in Fairfsx, aud another
force in the lower valley.
The Hersid's Washington special says
that the Presidents inaugural address viii
probably be the briefest ever delivered. 1t
is announced that the reading Of il will not
occupy more than five or eightminutes.
A letter from leading commander ip
the army of the Potomac, received here TO-
day states that during the last ten days
deserters from the rebel army have arrived
at the rate Of 14O per day. Those now ar
irving are veterans, as the rebels are not
able to trust conscripts, but these appear as
unreliable as coRscripts.
Richmond PAPERS say that while making
no illusions to military movements now in
progress in the CarOlinas, it is not improper
to say that Columbia is now free Of the enc
my after a large portien had been de-
stroyed by FIRE, the origin Of which is var
iously stated. Gen. Hampton is said 70 have
fred his house there himself, and 20 have
seen it burn to the ground before he left
the place.
The Tribune's Washington special says
It having been decided by the President
that it is not necessary TO re-sPpoint mem
beIs Of his Cabinet vino remain over aBoth-
or term, the name Of Mr.. Mccullough may
be sent in tomorrow, a. well as that Of
Freeman Clark, who succeeds him as
Comptroller. No other changes will BE-
made.
The Times Washington special says that
Richmond papers Of Tuesday indicate that
sherman Is moving towards Raleigh, lsav-
ing Johnston's force in bis rear.
