The Rebel Forces In Texas.

new YORK, April 30.-The Houston
(Texas) Telegraph publishes details of
conference between Gen. Slaughter (reb-
el) and Gen. Lew Wallace, in which the
former claims that Gen. Wallace guaran-
teed, in case of the surrender of the rebel
forces in Texas, protection of slave pro-
perty, vindication Of the Monroe doctrine
and establishment of protectorate over
Mexico. A letter from the rebel Major
Gen. Walker, however, shows that the
terms offered stipulate that they must
Law down their arms, take the oath of al
legiance and accept such terms of am
nesty or pardon or foreign exile as the
United States Government would grant.
These terms the rebel Major General in.
dignantly rejects, claiming that with
three hundred thousand men yet In the
field, the rebels can achieve their indie
psndence. - .1

says: The surrender of General John

the rest of the insurgents General Grant
having virtually ended the war will re-

initiatory measures have been already
taken for large curtailmeut Of eSpen-

WASHINGTON, April 29.-Information
has been received by the Navy Depart
ment that the rebel ironclad Stonewell
left Tenneriffe on the 2nd inst, for the
West Indies, and she is supposed By this
time to be in that locality.
General ingalls,, Chief Quartermaster
of the Army Of the Potomac, and General
Gibbons, of the Second Corps, arrived
here from City Point on special boat
to-day. The latter brought up seventy
six rebel battle flags, which will be pre-
sented to the War Department.
The Government are establishing mill
tary posts in St. Mary's, Prince George
and Charles counties, Maryland. This is
done to protect the loyal people in that
vicinity, and to prevent any reasonable
demonstrations by the disloyal The
protection which was given the mur-
derer, Booth, plainly exhibited the ex-
tent of the latter. The troops are to for.
age on the country and to give receipts
for anything they take, which will be
paid to all persons proving their loyalty
Edwin Booth, who is now in this city,
came here, it is said, at the instance of
his mother, to obtain the dead body of
his brother.
The Government has already begun
the task of fretrenching, with earnestness,
its expenses, and on the lst of May a
large number of clerks of the various De-
partments will be dismissed.
Since the restriction on trade between
this city and Richmond has been re-
moved, hundreds of persons from the
North have passed through here for the
latter place, on visits Of curiosity or
pleasure.
Considerable disorder has existed here
for the past few days, owing to the num-
ber of troops who have passed through
this city. Several have been killed by
fighting among themselves.

The Evacuation Of Richmond.

The Evacuation OF ktchmond.
From the Augusta Chronicle and Sentinel. Of
April lO.l
As time elapses, and peoples heads be
come cool, we are gradually arriving at
something like truth regarding the OK
tent of the late battle before Richmond.
From a gentleman who was there during
the fight, and took part In the evacuation
consequent therefrom, we obtain the fol-
lowing particulars;
It appears, according to ouI informant,
that it had been the settled determine
ton of the Confederate Government to
remain in Richmond until elected fromit
by force of arms Preparations looking
to its possible capture had, however,
been made by our authorities for some
months past, by the removal of stores Of
various kinds, and in this they showed a
wise foresight but no member of the
Government or none of the citizens any
more expected the city to fall in this
campaign than i'll any of the campaigns
preceding. Indeed, confidence in the
safety of the Capital was never more gen.
eral among both army and people than
but two days before its fall.
The battle of Sunday, April 2, was a
great battle-a bloody battle. Our
troops were inferior by about one-third
to the enemy The strong intrenchments
behind which they fought were only car
ried by the Federals after FIVE successive
charges and the display of an almost des.
perate valor.
The Confederate losses consequent up
on this disaster cannot be fully esti-
mated, but it is stated that in killed,
wounded and prisoners it will foot up to
twenty-five thousand. In the hospitals
of Richmond alone there were about
twelve thousand sick and wounded pa.
| tients, who all fell into the hands Of the
enemy; while it is stated by those en-
gagged in the fight, that when the work;
on our right were stormed and carried
the slaughter among our fanked. re-
treating battalions was, for time, ter
rible.
Some seventy guns were captured 10y
the enemy in the fight, and as many
more were left by our troops, it being
found impossible to remove them in timt
for a successful retreat A number o,

behind. though the loss in this partieu
lar is not so great as We would have i'm
agined, owing to the fact that the Gov
ernment had previously transported al
surplus stores to Charlotte and otbel
points as precautionary measure.
Owing to the suddenness Of the eyacu
alton, and the CONSERVATION and con
fusion among all classes incident to th'
defeat of our hitherto invincible soldiers
many members of the Government ant
officers of the army and navy remained
behind in the city and thus becam'
prisoners. Among those of the latter ar
Rear Admiral Semmes, celebrat I'd for tn
action he fought with the United State
ship Kearsage, and the gallant Captain

Grant had determined to take Richmon,
at all events, no matter how many of hi
men were killed. ..z.

Ii is stated that there were about eigh-
ty thousand bales of cotton in Mont
gomery in the warehouses. This was
burned on Tuesday evening There was
large quantity of cotton scattered
through the streets; whether this was
burned also is not known. If it was, a
large part of the city must also have suf.
fered a similar fate from its close prox-
unity to combustible material That
portion OF the city in the neighbOrhood
of the different warehouses must have
suffered, and it is hardly possible the
