We publish a partial ligt of the casualties in the three days’ battles. The official and Hxratp despatches in our issue of yesterday contained the details of the fighting on last Friday, the main facts of that on Saturday, and the Our led chronicle of these most important engagements, fur- results of the sanguinary contest on Sunday. despatches in to-day's Heraup continue the dete nishing the particulars of Saturday's operations and the prom nent features of the closing contest on Sunday and tho grand climax of yesterday. ‘The decisive strug- gle was that of Saturday afternoon, on the extreme left of the lines, in the vicinity of Dinwiddie Court House, where General <heridan, after meeting with stubborn resist. finally, with the assistance of the Fifth corps, ance, drove the rebels from an advantageous position, turned their retreat into a rout, and captured eight guns and Gvo thousand men, in@uding three brigades nearly com- plete, a division train and a large number of arms and accoutrements, During this engagement General War- ron wns removed fom the command of the Fifth corps by Generai Sheridan, in the presence of his own troops ‘nd the cnemy. It is said that the reason was tardiness or refusal to obey orders on the part of General Warren. The successive telegrams received yesterday announc- Ing tho glorious news from Virginia caused unbounded excitement and rejoicing throughout the country, In New York and nearly all the principal cities there was an unlimited display of the national colors, bells were rung What has been | returned to City Point at night. THE LEGISLATURE. In the Senate yesterday Mr. Laimbler asked permy 72 to introduce several remonstrances against the extension of the Second Avenue and Third Avenue railroads, which was refused. Th» Underground Railroad bilt was‘ re- ferred to the Judiciary Committee. The Canal and Ciaim bills consumed the romainder of the session. Ip the Assembly the bill to amend the charter of the Hermitage Association of New York was passed. Mr Van Buren then announced the capture of Peterburg and the occupation of Richmond, and moved that, in honor of the event, the House take a recess until half. | Dast seven P. M., which was carried with great appi'se, tho members rising and cheering, During the evening | Session the Claim bill was discussed until tho hour of | adjournment. MISCELLANEOUS NEWS. The. ropubticans carried the election in C yesterday, by large majorities, Governor Buckingham, | Tepublican, waz re-elected, and the republicans elected | all the four Congressmen, all the State Senators and about ree fourths of the, Assemblymen. ‘The stenmships Bavaria, from Southampton March 22, and Etna, from Queensiown March 23, are due at this port to-day, ‘The Etna brings four days laler news. | The draft proceeded yesterday for the Nineteenth aud Twenty-first wards. The drawing for the former was completed. For the latter it will be continued today; and i+ is said that the wheel will also revolve for the qvota of the Thirteenth ward, Volunteering continues quite brisk. About forty men were recruited yesterday at Chairman’s3 Blunt's rooms, and a number of others at the diferent provost marshals’ offices. The Supervisors’ tee now havea fair prospect of being kept sup- th funds Additional subseriptions to the ty seven per cent loan, to the amount of forty thou- sand dotlars, were received yesterday, and at @ confer. epee with the State paymaster last evening it is under- j a 1 that arrangements were perfected by which a | pertion of the State fund will be immediately made available for the payment of bounties in this city. Mr. Bist expeets to be able to-day to place sufficient money in the hands of the provost marshals to keep them busy in Z volunteers, and thus avert further revotu- Uons of the draft wheel. Drafting was resumed in Brooklyn yesterday, but only to the extent of drawing the necessary number of names to fill the deficiency in the quota of the Fifth ward, Third Congressional diatrict. Deficiencies in the quotas of other wards in this district are yet to be filled; but it is understood that they will not bo drawn for before next Friday or Saturday. The Board of Councilmen met yesterday, when Mr. Lent presented a report of the special committee ap- pointed to act upon the communication of the Mayor in reference to applying to the Legislature for duthority to e twenty millions of dollars to secure volunteers, deemed it inexpedient, in view of the near ap- proach of the adjournment of the Legislature, to make such an application, believing that the money could not be raised. A special committee of three were appointed to act with a similar committee from the Aldermen upon the communication of the Chief Engineer of the Fire Department announcing the passage of the law abolish- ing the volunteer system. Mr. Lent made a few re- marks announcing the glorious intelligence of the fall of Richmond, after which the Board adjourned. The April term of the Court of General Sessions com- menced yesterday, Recorder Hoffman presiding. The Grand Jury were sworn, Mr. Benjamin H. Day having been sclected as foreman, and, after a brief charge by the Recorder, entered upon the discharge of their duties. A calendar of cases was prepared, and District Attorney Hall was ready to proceed with business, when the news of the capture of Richmond was received, which had such an effect upon the witnesses and others in attend- ance that the court adjourned for the day without dis- posing of any of the cases. Laver advices from St. Domingo, received in this city yesterday, while professing to deny previous reports ihat a counter-revolution had taken place there, to some extent confirm thom. It is admitted that the republican government of which Polanco was chief has been super- seded by a new one, at the head of which is General Rojas; but it is now claimed that the change was effected impromptu meetings were gotten up, and there was a general and enthusiastic congratulation over the cheer- Ang intelligence. which spontaneously assembled in Wall street, a commit- tee was appointed to arrange for a grand jubilee in Union At an immense meeting of merchants square on an early day.

President Lincoln did not visit Richmond yesterday. in a quiet manner, and not by violence, as before stated. ‘What the position of the new government is in regard to the war with the Spaniards we are not informed, nor is anything additional regarding hostilities farnished. From Port au Pmnce, Hayti, our advices are to the 25th of March. Three hundred thousand dollars had been appropriated by government for the relief of the sufferers by the disastrous fire in Port au Prince on the 28th of February, and subscriptions for the same pur- pose were being taken throughout the republic. Presi- dent Geffrard had proposed several important amend- ments to the Haytien constitution, one of which is the conferment of citizenship on foreigners rendering service to the country. The President had also ordered the establishment of a volunteer fre department. A youth of nineteen, named Henry G. Gray, was yes- terday committed to the Tombs for trial, in default of two thousand dollars bail, on charge of false pretences, he having, as alleged, swindled Mr. Van Bergen, of No. 60 Varick street, out of about one hundred dollars, on pretence of using the money in searches which he pro- fesaed to be making to discover a lost son of the latter. A German named John Richter yesterday appeared at the Cedar street police station and surrendered himscif to the officer in charge, stating that on the night of the 16th of February last he had a fight on one of the North river piers with an unknown man who attempted to rob him, and that he killed the man in the contest and after- wards threw his body into the water. Richter said the affair so preyed upon his mind that he could find no peace in further concealment. He was detained to await an examination of the case, During leat Saturday night, Sunday and yesterday, the ‘St. Lawrence river at Montreal rose rapidly and to a great height, inundating @ considerable portion of the city, and putting a stop, except by boats, to communication between the eastern and western sections of it, At four o'clock yesterday afternoon the water was slowly falling. The glorious news from Richmond and Petersburg, yea terday, had its effect in the gold market as well as evory+ where else. On Saturday the closing price at the down town gold room was 1623;, and at the evening board 154. The closing prices yesterday were 146 at the after- noon board, and 146% atthe evening. The highest Sgure gold attained in the evening was 157. The news of the great victory of Grant, the capture of Petersburg and Richmond, caused the wildest excitement in commercial circles, and yesterday was a grand gala day, devoted to congratulations, speechifying, &c. ‘Of couree business was nowhere, and scarcely anything was done. Merchandise of every kind was entirely nominal. On ‘Change flour declined S0c. a 76c. per bbl, while wheat was 8c. a 10c. lower, with scarcely anything doing. Corn was dull, and 1c, a 2c. lower. Oats were in limited demand, and le, lower, The pork market opened dull and lower, but closed rather firm Beef was steady. Lard was dull, and Jee. a xc. lower. Freights ruled ex- tremely quiet. Whiskey was steady. A Coxvention or Pattosoruers.—A -vaven- tion of Unitarian philosphers meets in this city to-day. These divines are the disciples of Theo- dore Parker, and hold about the same opinions as Renan and Straus. Their design is to tear down the old forms of religion and erect some- thing new and poetical. Let them put off their convention until we get over the capture of Richmond, and we will give them more atten- tion. Tas News w Evrorr.—When the news of our latest succeases—of the great battles near Petersburg and of the capture of Richmond— reaches Enrope we suppose that England and France will make up their minds at once to | meet either a great foreign war or a revolution at home. Atas! Poor Ben Woov.—What next? Is It A Daocen Tuat I See Berons Me ?— Ex-Governor Wise, of Virginia, has mounted a high horse since he left the rebel army. He says that if Lee ever becomes Dictator he, the aforesaid Wise, “has the dagger of Brutus in his right hand.” This is all a mistake. Judging from Wise’s expits at Roanoke Island, it can’t be the dagger of Brutus, and it must be the dagger of Harlequin in the pantomime. The Glorious News from Virginia— Richmond Ours and Lee in Retreat. To-day we publish accounts of the grandest triumph that bas crowned human efforts for centuries, Richmond has fallen, Lee is in fall fiight, the mos! wicked of all re- bellions has absolutely received its death blow, and is so positively crushed that no power on earth cam save it. Such are the vital facts of the news, and they are very grand ones. That the great attempt to break down this nation—to defeat this “experiment” so filled with possible benefit for the human race, to destroy this hope of 80 many down-trodden peoples—that a power organized for euch pur- poses has been at length completely over- thrown is, indeed, the most glorious piece of news for humanity that ever fell to the lot of any journal to lay before its six hundred thousand readers. g Lee’s retreat will probably prove to be a rout. His army seemed to. hold together feebly before the battles, and the flerce strug- gles of Friday, Saturday and Sunday, with the inevitable destruction of officers, have so ter- tibly shaken it that it probably will need no more than such o retreat asit is now on to finally close up its accounts. We had taken twelve thousand prisoners in the three days; and doubtless there were twelve thousand more killed and wounded. Only half of Lee’s army, therefore, is left with Lee. Such a force cannot stand alone. Lee must join Johnston before he can halt, and such a run will cost him ten thousand more men, especially as he must make it with the persistent Sheridan at his heels all the way, and with Grant close behind. Grant moves towards the Danville Railroad, and Lee in the same direction, not far ahead. Lee ‘will endeavor to cross Grant’s line in order to join Johnston, who, of course, will re- treat towards a given point on Lee’s line, to facilitate the junction. From all appearances the utter destruction of the forces under Lee and Johnston is certain within a short time, be- tween Grant, Sherman and Sheridan, leaving Thomas out of the question. Ordinarily this might prove to be a question of supplies; but Sherman’s experience seems to prove that the troops can live on the country—Lee’s troops must—and consequently their movement can- not be so rapid but that ours may subsist in the same way. But it is quite possible that Lee may be smashed up singly withina few days or hours, before any question of supplies will occur. He is out of the fortifications now, and has head fighters and fast marchers behind him. ‘Tue ConcratuLatony Appress or Masox Gx- ERAL Mrapr.—We have received the following note from General Mende relative to the con- gratulatory address issued by him after the affair of Fort Steedman, on the 25th ults— TO THE RDITOR OF THE HERALD.

It was therefore supposed, from ‘aome of the expressions, that it emanated from the Lieu- tenant General, aithongh the work done was accomplished by a portion of the Army of the Potomac, which is under the immediate com- mand of General Moade. The publication of the note is gn act of jus- tice to the officers who had command of the fort when it was taken by the rebels. Otp Ape as A Muuirary Cnrerrain.—In the first years of the war the radicals advised Old Abe to take the field and annihilate General McClellan and Jeff. Davis at one blow. The President tried it and failed, because he divided his army into too many small detachments. Taught by experience, he now takes the field again, succeeds in extinguishing Davis and is in at the death of the rebellion. His bulletins from City Point are so readable that we may offer him a situation on the HEraxp, after his present term expires, as war correspondent in the grand struggle with Europe which is to fol- low the close of our civil contest. Should he accept he can have one hundred dollars a week, his rations and a fresh horse every six months. However, he may do even better than that. He has so far eclipsed all other politi- cians by his movements on both flanks and in front and rear that we should not wonder if he took the starch out of them all for the succes- sion in 1868. Who can tell what will happen? WASHINGTON. Wasumncroy, April 3, 1865, OVERTURES FOR PEACE MADE BY JEFF. DAVIS PRESIDENT LINCOLN’S AND SECRETARY SEWARD'S VIBWS OF THE PROPOSITION. ‘Thegrand success of our armies before Richmond dur- ing the last three days bas, in a measure, removed the secresy from events which have transpired at City Point sino» the President arrived there. I am informed by a high official in the government that in the early part of last week Jeff. Davis made a direct overture to Mr. Lin- coln to surrender everything to the United States govern- ment, and asked but one condition—everything else he would yield. That condition was, that all who had taken part in the rebellion should be restored to citizenship. All else be would give up if that would be granted. Mr. Lincoln’s reply was that ‘Ho did not have the power to grant that point. Congress had passed a law expressly prohibiting all persons in this rebellion holding important official positions, as well as all in their armies above the rank of colonel, from being restored to citizen- ship, and had, therefore, taken it out of his power to ac- cede to that proposition.” This ended that peace nego- tiation, and Sighting commenced within forty-eight hours afterwards. The President wroteto Secretary Seward detailing the above facts. The latter, upon receiving the letter, imme- iately started for City Point to urge the President to ac- cept the proposition immediately, call an extra session of Congresg, and appeal to their magnanimity to ratify the terms of settlement. But before Mr. Seward arrived the fighting had commenced which has resulted in the cap- ture of Richmond. These facts are from a reliable source, and may be considered semi-official. CKBONE STIFFENING. Secretary Seward’s backbone is stiffening. He declared toa gentfeman who was dining with him afew days ago that as soon as the rebellion was over he would make a formal demand upon England for every cent of the dam- ages inflicted upon our commerce by rebel privateers fitted out in English ports. And he added, very sig- nificantly, that he had this little bill ready for presenta- tion. Jerr, Pavis a Supuissionist.—We publish this morning a highly interesting despatch from Washington announcing, upon what appears to be reliable authority, that Jeff. Davis made direct overtures to President Lincoln, just be- fore the commencement of the recent fighting, for the full surrender of the confederacy and its armies to the United States authorities. It appears that the only condition asked by Davis was that he and his co-workers in the rebellion should be restored to citizenship. President Lincoln rejected the proposition for the reason that the laws of Congress expressly prohibited it. Terrible fighting soon after com- menced. It has been apparent to all who have been conversant with the facts as they developed themselves through the peace negotiations of Blair and at Hampton Roads, that ever since the fall of Fort Fisher the rebel leaders have been holding out and specially manceuvring to obtain terme that would tet them down easy. But the coils of our armies have been gradu- ally tightening around them; Davis becomes convinced that.the only chance left is to save his own neck, and immediately proposes to settle upon that idea. Failing in securing from Mr. Lincoln a promise of that, he makes a desperate effort to save him- self by fighting, We have the result before us. Now that Richmond is ours, our armies occupying the late rebel capital, and the rebellion to all intents 9nd purposes crushed, would it not be well for Mr. Lincoln to notify the rebels that he will grant them general amnesty if they will surrender, lay down their arms and return to their allegiance. There is no doubt but that if he will call an extra session of Congress, and appeal to them to endorse it, that they will repeal the law now prohibiting it. He can safely leave Jeff. Davis and associates to the Southern peo- ple. The moment that the rebel armics are disbanded the people will begin to realize who is responsible for all the evils, sufferings, hard- ships and sacrifices that they have made and endured for four long years. The criminations and recriminations which will follow will soon make it too hot for Davis and his associates and co-workers in getting up and carrying on the rebellion to long remain in that country. The people of the South will not let them re- main there. A revolution will spring up that will force them to seek an asylum elsewhere. If Mr. Lincoln desires to get rid of the leaders DISTRIBUTION OF PRIZE MONEY. Tho following is a list of additional prizes ready for distrfoution at the Fourth Auditor's office :—Avoostook, thirty-eight bales of cotton; Katadin, Albert Eaward, Scotia, cighty-three bales of cotton; Niphon, Zila and Annie, Magnolia, Matagorda, Rhode Island, Vixen, Key- stone State, Rouen, Santiago de Cuba and Lucy.

Tux Gotp Marxet.—The official despatches announcing the taking of Richmond created the wildest excitement among the speculators in the gold rooms yesterday, and buyers and sell- ers, bulls and bears were thrown into such utter confusion that few knew how or were even disposed to operate. The news was anticipated in the morning, and the premium at eleven o’clock had tallen from forty-nine to forty-six, with nearly the usual amount of business; but on the final announcement that the rebel capi- tal had been evacuated the speculative demand almost ceased, and the price ranged in the afternoon on the fractions between one hundred and forty-five and one hundred and forty-six— nearly nine per cent below the closing quota- tions of Saturday.

At the concluston of the drawing Captain Danning an- nounced the capture of Richmond, and the news was received with loud cheers and cries of ‘Bully for you.” The following is a list of the names drawn:— Auld J B, Aloid John H, Austin Wm, Auckner Jacob, Acken Samuel Abdrews David, ‘Andrews Geo D, Ansert J. jacob, An- drewa Mic Adams Albert F, Abearn John, Armstror Win, Anser Naiban.
