THE NEWS.

\\y ki«"HMOND and run.RSBrRG linksSince tho salutes fired bj tho Yankees

en the 22d, the sound of big guns hasnot been heard on the north side of theJames. At Petersburg, tho national sa-lute WSS fired bj Grant's artillery withshotted gun*, some of tho shells falling

n the city. On this side, as we havebefore etsied, theycontented themselveswith letting oil' blank cartridges.

Por several days past there has been;..q much stir within the enemy's line*south of Petersburg as t<> give rise tothe report that they were concentratingfoi another attack en our extreme right.Va, however, nn attack has l»ecn made,it is probable the commotion observedwas incidents! to the removal of a partof the Yankee army to City Point, en

', to co-operate with Schofield andSherman in the Carolinas. If any of-fensive movement against the Peters-burg lines *wss contemplated by Grant,ithas been indefinitelypostponed by thedrenching rain of yesterday, which hasconverted Kastern Virginia into one vastquagmire.

FkOM Tin; SOUTH.The city was, yesterday, filled with

rumors relative to military movementsin North and South Carolina; but wehave no official intelligence from thatquarter. Wo, however, know that af-fairs in that quarter are abreauy begin-ning to wear a inure pleasing aspect.

General Joseph EL Johnston was, onWednesday, ordered to report to GeneralLee ; and it is the general opinion thathe has been assigned to tiie command ofall the forces operating against Sherman.ii has been a rumor for some days thatGeneral Beauregard had asked to be re-lieved on account of ill health. GeneralJohnston had been with (Jenoral Beau-regard since our troops fell back fromthe line of the Ed isto.

NEGRO SOLDIERS?THE QUES-TION DISPOSED OF.

The Confederate Senate, on yesterday,removed the injunction of secrecy fromthe proceedings on the Senate bill, in-troduced by Mr. Brown, of Mississippi,to provide for raising two hundred thou-sand negro troops. Jt appears that thebill was lost in the Senate on Tuesday,the'J Ist instant, by a vote of eleven totea Those who voted for an indefinitepostponement of the bill?whichamounts to its defeat? were Messrs.Baker, Barnwell, Caperton, Garland,Graham, Hunter, Johnson of Georgia,Johnson of Missouri, Maxwell, Oir andWigfidJ.

Those who voted in the negative wereMessrs. Brown, Burnett, Haynes, Henry,

< tldbam, Semmes, Simms, Vest, Walkerand Watson.

In official circles, this is considered asdisposing of the question of putting ne-gro soldiers into our armies finally. TheHouse' negro soldier bill, which is verysimilar to the Senate bill, has not been,and it is now bc-lievcd will not be, actedupon by the Senate.

JMPORTA ST To THEMESER YESThe following important order, just

issued by the Adjutant-General, will befound especially interesting to all thosebelonging to the reserve forces. It willbe seen that the whole business of cn-forciog the conscript law is devolvedupon them. We give the general or-der:"A; " i vvi %Ml»lx*FE< H.i'.-Oi ?? 11< ii'sOil i> i, |

The Cards forLihcolnVlnauoura-tion Ball. ? The Washington paperspublish s description of the cards of ad- jmission to the inauguration ball, to takeplace in Washington on thesth proximo.The olive branch, it seems, has beenjomitted from Lincoln's Administration!in order that it may figure prominently !i:i his ball cards: |

"The caption consists of the words:4 National Inauguration Ball, March I,IKt'.V Beneath thin arc medallions in-terlaced (pinned together with a _taflsurmounted with a liberty cap) andedged with olive branches. Upon oneof the medallions is an excellent por-traiture of the President, and upon thoother that of the Vice-President elect,inscribed at the bottom of each respect-ively with the name of their oftice; andbeneath the medallions is a scroll, en-twined about the stall', upon which arcinscribed the names of Abraham Lincolnand Andrew Johnson. In the centre ofthe card below is the blank form of in-vitation, and the list of managers sub-scribed thereto. .v Upon either side of the centre pieceare twopillars standing upon a baso ofthree steps. The base represents stone,and the three steps are intended to re-present the three great struggles of ournation for existence: the Revolution, thelower r>ne, inscribed with the figures' 1777*8_'; the war with Great Britain,4 ISU2 15*; and the present war, *18b0---86.' Upon these steps arc granite pe-destals of rough rock, upon which arcerected columns offasces, strongly boundtogether w'th cords, representing thecolumns of the masses of the peoplesupporting the government of the coun-try. The right-hand column »S sur-mounted by tho Americaneagle, destroy-ing a serpent. The National pendant isentwined about this shaft. Upon theother column is also an eagle, graspingin her talons the usual insignia of thearrows and the olive branch. Aboutthis column is entwined a scroll inscribedwith the National motto, * EPluribusUnumf and also the words, 'Wearsone and indissoluble.'

We understand that theengraving hasbeen accepted, and that the cards arenow being printed. We also icarn thatone of themwas shown at Mrs. Lincoln'sreception yesterday afternoon, and eli-cited approbation."
