We printed of ryeaiartaiie Mae: for general circulation, the enormous number of one hundred and thirty-one thousand jive hundred and twenty (131,520) copies. No Hexaps were sent to the Army of the Potomac in consequence of its move- ment; and as we usually send to that army cleven thousand copies, that number added would have raised the whole number to 142,520. This number is larger than the whole circulation of all.the other dailies of this city together. Their aggregate circulation, morning and evening, is about one hundred thousand copies. We thus al- ready exceed the whole circulation of all the others together by a large figure, and we have no doubt that we shall soon exceed it by a larger one, and make our daily circulation one hundred and fifty thousand copies, THE SITUATION. The general rejoicing and delight over the recent grand national triumphs Though the people were not so wildly demonstrative in in Virginia continned yesterday. their manifestations as on the first announcement 01 the glorious intelligence, the feeling was decper and more appreciative, At first it was difficult fully to realize such fruition to the profound, long sustained, but ‘ten disappointed, yearnings of the national heart, But twenty-four hours allowed time for the bright vision to resolve itself into a bles it fact, apparent beyond all cavil, and for a fuller comprehension of its almost incal. culable importance. Our detailed narrative of the mililary operations around and in Petorsborg and Richmond is continued to- day in tho graphic despatches of the Hera. corres- pondents, ' Accounts of the fighting up to and including Saturday have already appeared in ourcolumns. To-day wo give tho particulars of the final flerce siruggle on Sunday, ending in glorious success to the Union arms, almost the annihilation of Lee's reb'l army, and the triumphant entry of tho national troops inte Richmond nd Petersburg. It1s estimated that in all the battles, commencing with last Wednesday, ; when the movement of Genoral Grant's forces began, and ending with last Bunday night, twenty-five thousand of General Lee's rebel soldiers were captured and fifteen thousand of them killed and wounded, while nearly two hundred pieces of his artillery, immense quantities of stores nd small arms innumerable fell into Union hands. General Grant says that seven thousand will more than over all his losses in killed, wounded and captured. When tho national troops marched into Petersburg, @ four o'clock on Monday morning, they found the fortifications, cannon and camps as they had been ‘used while tho robels had possession of them, showing the basty character of the flight. Warehouses filled with all manner of army stores, batilo flags, wagons, Dorses and mules without number, were also found. After deducting twenty-fivo thousand for prisoners, ‘Bfveen thousand for killed and wounded and a large ad- ditional number for stragglors and deserters, Lee's army must be but a miserable remnant. What thore was left of it was still in full flight yesterday morning, moving in the direction of Lynchburg, with Sheridan's cavalry and the Second, Fifth, Sixth and Twonty- fourth corps of national troops close upon its heels, as ‘wo are informed by a despatch from Gencral Grant. Over ‘two thousand additional rebels had already been captured ince the pursuit commenced. General Grant is aocom- Panying the pursuing column in person. Among General Weitzel's captures in Richmond were twenty-eight locomotives and ove hundred and fifty rail- road cara, On Sunday night, before abandoning that city, the rebols blew up their iron-clads in James river ‘and their fortifications on ita banks, producing an ex- plosion which was heard and felt for miles around. Prosident Lincoln was in Richmond yesterday. A des- patch was received in Washington from him dated at Jeff. Davis’ late residence. A large mooting of leading merchants and other promi- ‘nent citizens was held at the Custom House yesterday, in pursuance of a resolution adopted at the Wall strect mass meeting on Monday, to make arrangements for a suitable celebration of our great victories. It was agreed, fmstead of a procession, to have two addrosses prepared, one to the President and the other fo tho armies, and to have them signed by the citizens and published, and to fix upon a day for general thanksgiving, on which occasion it will be re- quested that there shall be appropriate religious services in all the churches. It is supposed that the 20th inst., the fourth anaivorsary of the grand uprising of the North nd monster Union square mass war meeting of 1861, will be the day choson. A commilteo of fifieen was appointed to perfect the plans. The Boatd of Aldermen at their mecting yesterday ‘unanimously adopted resolutions appropriate to the pre- sent jubilant condition of the public feeling, and appointed ® committees to confer with the merchants in arrange- ments for the proposed celebration. A message was re- eeived from Mayor Gunther, oxpressing his disapprobation of tho designed demonstration in recognition of the na- tional triumphs, and proposing that instead thereof Jef- ferson’s birthday, the 13th inst., be observed as a holl- day. It wns at first resolved to return the message to tho Mayor; but afterwards the matter was reconsidered, ‘and the document was referred to the Special Celebra- tion Committee. At a spocial meeting of the Board of Councilmen yes- terday, hold for the purpose of making arrangements to celobrate the recent victories, the resolutions adopted by the Aldermen were presented, calling for the appoint- ment of a special committee to attend to the matter, and ‘unanimously concurred in. The Mayor's message, sug- gesting that the celebration bo fixed for the 13th of April, was read and referred to the special committee. General Shorman arrived at Newbern, N. C., ‘Thursday, on his return from the recent conference on James river, and loft for Goldsboro on the eame day, @enoral Sherman believes that the soldiers are the only exoo nogotiators competent to deal with a settlement of Bho rebellion, In an address to his troops soon ter their arrival at Goldsboro he told them that he expected to bo ready to muster them out of ser vice before the oxpiration of four more months. ‘Mo domonstration \n front of Sherman's army has been made by Goneral Johnston since the battle of Bentons- ‘ville, The rebels are principally located on the Golds. and Raleigh Railroad, between Smith@eld and yh. Both Raleigh and Weldon are being strongly by them. They have an ironclad ram in the Roanok ¢ river, which they expect to have ready move down to Plymouth and into the Sound by the Middle of this month. on last NEW YORK HERALD, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 5, 1865: the 20th ultimo about eitht thousand bates of s-creied cotton had been discovered in aud around that city, and more was constuntly being brought to ght. Large numbers of negroes are coutinnally arriving in the c ty from the inéerior, and as rapidly as possible they aro boing colonized on the adjoining sea islauds, to cultivate the abandoned plantations, Nearly all the farmors near Cherleston had resumed work, under promise of protec- ton from the national troops, The report that a parly of rebels had recaptured RETA 5S. C., appears to have been baseless. THE LEGISLATURE. In the Senate yesterday the bill authorizing the New York Manhattan Gaslight Company to charge at the rate of three dollars and fifty cents per one thousand feet for gas was taken up. On motiun the bill was amended so ‘as to make binding every requirement and stipulation of its contract with the city of New York for Lighting certain streets and places; also providing that, at the expiration of two years, the company shail return to the orginal tariff of prices of two dollars and Aifty conts per one thonsand feet. The amendments bav- ing been accepted, the bill was then passed. Bills were passed for the relief of the Bath and Coney Island Rail- road Bridgo Company; to amend the Brooklyn Water act; to incorporate the Soldiers’ Messenger Corps; to im- prove Riverdale avenue from Yonkers to Kingsbridge, and tocreato « new ward in this city. The Senate then went into Commuttee of the Whole and resumed the con- sideration of the bill amending the Registry law. Aftora lengthy debate as to the constitutionality of the pro- visions of the bill, progress was reported and the bill was made the special order for to-day, In evening ses- sion notice was given of a bill to fucorporate tho Exempt Firemen’s Association of New York. Bills were reported for the enlargement of the locks on the Erie Canal, the expense thereof tobe liquidated by a tax on through freight; toaxthorize the Captain of the Port of New York to select one of the harbor masters to act in his ab- sence, The bill to incorporate the New York Pier and Warchonsing Company was then taken up in Committee of the Whole, and amended 60 as to limit the period within which the company shall improve the pliers to two years, and the number of picrs to be occupied by them tot-n. The bili was then ordered toa third reading. In the Assembly Mr. Van Buren asked Ieave to intro- deco resolutions tendering “our heartfelt thanks to Licutenant General G. ant and all the officers and men of the grand army of the Unton for the heroism they have displayed, the sacrillecs they have made and the results they have achieved,” which was granted, and they were adopted unanimously, Lilly wore passed to change the name of the New York Free Academy to New York Free College, and to close a portion of the Second avenue, Brovklyn. » Speaker then annoinced the special order, which was the elec- tion of state Superintendent of Public Instruction. ‘The arrival of the Senate having been announced, the roll was called, the members present voting with the following resuli:—Fur Victor M. Rice, 87; Joseph Warren, 39; Benjamin W. Downing, 5; Horace Greeley, 1; John §. Thorn, 1; whereupon the election of Victor i. Rice was announced by the Lieutenant Governor, for threo years, from the first Tuesday in April, 1865, The Dill to authorize the city rooklyn to issue bonds to raise money was adopted. Mr. Snimon moved to sus pend the order of third reading of bills, 0 as to go into Comunittee of the Whole on the Dry Dock Ra‘lroad bill, which was agreed to, When the committee was dis- solved it was ordered that the bill be moved to its third reading by @ vote of yeas $8, nays 42, The Supply and Charity bills being the special order the evening session was occupied in their consideration. Progress was re- ported. MISCELLANEOUS NEWS. The bark Bolivia, in the service of tho Pacific Railroad Company, arrived a: this port from Aspinwall ygsterday, under command of Captain Whiteberry, with advices from the United States of Colombia dated at Panama on the 18th of March. The State of Panama was revolution- ized against the Mosquera-Calancha government on the 9th ultimo, and the Executive was quickly turned out of office, Five or six persons were killed and a few more wounded in the city of Panama, The rights of foreign- ers were respected, and their personal safety and prop- erty secured. ‘efior Calancha, thc late President, found shelter on board the United States ship St. Marys. Seiior Colunje, a prominent citizen of- Panama, was named Provisional President next day. He formed a govern- ment, which was recognizod by all the foreign consuls, President Murillo had tendered his resignation in Bogota, he be!ng opposed to the popular wieh for a war with Ecua- dor, A battslion of regular troops stationed in Lima, Peru, revolted against the government; but the movement was immediately suppressed and its leader shot, An attempt on a more formidable scale was expected. The revolu- tionists seek to place Genoral Castilla at the head of the government. The drawing for the Twenty-first ward, Eighth Con- gressional district, was concluded yesterday. There was no other drafting im the city, A number of recruits were received at the Supervisors’ rooms and the various pro- vost marshals’ offices, The oxamination of the drafted men of the First commenced yesterday at the of- fice of the Fourth nal district, and, notwith- standing a large crowd of these were in attendance, keep- ing the Provost Marshal and his assistants busily em- ployed all day, not a single man was held to service, all having some physical or other disqualification which ex- empted them. It is confidently expected that a State pay mastor will be in attendance at Supervisor Blunt’soffico in the City Hall Park to-day, with plenty of funds to pay bounties to all volunteers who present themselves both there and at the provost marshals’ officer. The Board of Supervisors had a special meeting yes- terday. A resolution to abolish the system of recruiting in the City Hall Park and on the Battery, and appoint paymasters to pay recruits mustered in by the provost marshals, was offered, discussed at length and finally ta- bled. The Board of Councilmen, at their special meeting yes- terday, concurred with the Aldermen in adopting resoln- tions requesting the Board of Supervisors to cause pay- masters to be appointed at the provost marshals’ offices to pay hand money to recruits, A communication was re- coved from the Mayor, sent by the New York Compost Company, offering to remove dead horses from the city, which was referred to the Committee on Public Health. After passing a number of routine papers the Board ad- journed till Thursday. A mecting of firemen was held last night at Firemen’s Hall, Chief Engineer Decker presiding, at which a reso- lution recommending a continuance of duty by all mem- bers of the present department #0 long as their services may be needed, and requosting the Common Council to institute the neccasary legal proceedings to test the con- stitutionality of the paid department bill, was unani- mously adopted. A firo broke out about one o'clock yesterday morning in the building No, 03 Furman street, Brooklyn, and ex- tended to No. 95, entirely consuming the contents of both. During its continuance a shocking catastrophe oc- curred. While a number of firemen were on tho top of ono of tho buildings the roof gave way, and they were plunged into the mass of flame beneath. Five of these mon are known to have been burned to death, and four more were dangerously injured. The committee to arrange for the Fort Sumter annt- versary celebration at the Academy of Music had another meeting yesterday at the Astor House. A letter was received from General Peck announcing his accopt- ance of the presidency of the mecting. The two pieces of music composed for the occasion are termed ‘“Ander- son's March to Sumter’ and ‘Anderson's Quickstep.” Great confidence is expressed in the entire success of the affair, In the Sarrogate’s Court the will of Mra. Susan Cross, deceased, has been on trial thie week. ‘The deceased waa very aged, and her mental capacity i# questioned. Moch conflicting testimony has been taken, and the case was submitted for decision yesterday. Some excitement prevails among the unlicensed liquor doalers in this city, in consequence of the adoption of the resolutions offered in the State Sonate on Thursday last, by Mr. Laimbeer, calling on the Polleo and Excise Commissioners to furnish the names and residences of ail persons who sell liquor without license, ‘The Unitarian National Convention opened ita proceed- ings last evening by services in the Church of All Souls (Dr. Bellows’), corner of Twentieth street and Fourth avenue. The annual convention sermon was preached to a Very numerous congregation. The convention meets this morning for business at the Athenw Broadway. Large numbers of destitute Southerners, including ‘women and children, have been for some time past ar- riving in this city, and no doubt others will be constanuy arriving for some time to come The number is already ‘fo large that our authorities are puzzled in efforts to pro. vide lodgings and food for them.

Govern- ments were in demand @t an advance. Gold was drm, and closed at 1483s down town, The closing price at the evening board was 147%, ‘There was somo recovery yes'erday from the general signation which characterized commercial affairs on Monday; yet the markots were very dull, and a largo proportion ef the moderate transactions recorded were on private terms, indicating almost unmistakably now-a- days lower prices. The great nows from James river occupies all attention, and business is of only s condary importance. On 'Chunge the flour market was dull and heavy, while wheat ruled exceodingly quiet; but prices were without material change, Corn and oats were in limited request, and prices are declining. The pork mar- ket was firmer and active, Beef ruled steady, while lard was firmer. Freights were rather firmer. Whiskey ad- vanced materially ; but the demand was moderate. ‘The market for beef cattle was heavy this week, and, with fair receipts, prices fell 130. a 2c. per lb., ranging from 14c. to 220. a 24c.—the latter an extreme rate, Milch cows were unchanged, and sold-at $45 to $000 $120, Veals were steady at 10c. a 1c. Sheep and lambs were in fair demand at from $7 50 to $82 a $16 Hogs were dull and lower, selling at from 113¢0. a 123¢0, ‘Tho total receipts were 4,843 beeves, 214 cows, 1,749 veals, 8,898 sheep and lambs, and 5,417 hogs. The News from Virginia—The Destruc- | tion of Lee’s Army and the Confede- racy. We give to-day very full and particular ac- counts of the fighting of Sunday, the decisive day of the great struggle at Petersburg. The important fact established by to-day’s news is that Lee’s army is utterly annihilated as a fighting force, The estimate is that fifioen thousand of Lee’s men are killed and wound- ed and twenty-five thousand are prisoners of war, thus making a total of forty thousand men put out of the combat in one series of operations. It is cortain that such a loss would leave to Lee but a mere ineffective remnant of troops, even if he had what is left in one body; but, in fact, what is left is split into several detachments, retreating in the suave qui peut style, and Lee isin all probability ignorant of the present whereabouts of the larger part of the force not captured. Blenheim or Waterloo were not more destructive to the beaten armies than the fighting at Petersburg has been to Lee’s. Out of all this we should realize very dis- tinctly the grand fact that there ‘is no longer any Southern confederacy. There is no longer any power besides the United States in the limits of the old Union that can set up even the flimsiest pretence to nationality. At this hour the rebellion is “without civil or mili- tary organization,” and “ without the emblems or the semblance of nationality.” This is the admission of the Richmond Kraminer—which no one will accuse of prejudice in our favor. That journal stated in advance the position that the rebellion would be in when it should be compelled, to leave Richmond, and argued that Richmond was so identified with the rebel cause that it was to all men and all nations, the visible symbol of it, and that to abandon one was to abandon the other. Thus we only repeat the admissions of the enemy in saying that the rebellion as an organized power is dead, and that it gave up the ghost in the hour when it was forced to leave the first and last of its strongholds. And the country can- not accept too literally this acknowledgment, made in advance in Richmond, that that city was the last possible resting and rallying place of the rebellion; that by its capture the rebel- lion is put down, and that they who may be still in arms are mere vagabonds and fugitives, without cause or purpose or power. All dignity and elovation so far as the enemy are concerned has now departed from their struggle. So long as they conld, with some appearance of justice, claim a nation- ality; so long as they had cities, a cap- ital, and established means of intercourse with nations, their position before the world was respectable. But now all that is done with. They area mere group of fugitives from justice; and while but yesterday they had the noble ambition to change the fate of nations, to-day they only hope to escape from the conse- quences of their own acts, They repeat, on @ large acale, the act of Semmes, and being with- out the manliness to look fate in the face and give up @ hopeless cause, they sneak out of sight and run for it. Even from the same Rich- mond Heaméner we have the declaration that the force now with Lee is no longer an army. It has degenerated from its former proud sta- tion to an almost menial one. It is “a mere body guard for a few officials.” It can accom- plish no national purpose; it can merely pro- tect the flight of a few lenders, and will be scattered in the mountains or hunted down in the highways. . Mr. Sewarn’s Barer Statement op His Forsran Poricy—In the little speech delivered by the Secretary of State to the rejoicing peo- ple of Washington on Monday last, wo have o more satisfactory exposition of his foreign policy than can be gathered from all the pon- derous volumes of his diplomatic correspond- ence of the last four years. His remark, for instance, that “If Great Britain will only be just towards the United States, Canada will remain undisturbed by us 60 long as she pre- fers the authority of the noble Queen to yolun- tary incorporation with the United States,” is all that could be desired. But in reference to Louis Napoleon he evaded the main question. “What,” inquired Mr. Seward; “what shall I say to the Emperor of the French? [A Voice— To get out of Mexico.) I shall say to the Em- peror of the French that he can go to-morrow to Richmond and get his tobacco, so long under blockade there, provided the rebels have not used it up.” Mr. Seward may not have heard that voice in the crowd; but, whether he did or did not hear it, he knows that it embodies the universal sontimenta of the neanle of the United ataten the Emperor of the French to “get out of Mexico,” and that be cannot remain there long after the close of this war. Tho closing general observation of Mr, Seward that “every nation is entitled to regulate its own domestic affairs in its own way, and that all are bound to conduct themsetves so as to promote peace on earth and good will to mankind,” may, perhaps, have been intended as an apology for noninterven- tion in Mexico; but this policy is not strong enough to stand against the Monroe doctrine, Mr. Seward may try to evade it; but he will be eventually compelled, we apprehend, to tell the Emperor of the French that, for the sake of peace, he will be acting wisely to “get out of Mexico.” Tux Dirvomatio Corrs ar Wasminaton.—The Buropean diplomatic corps at Washington have generally been ranked among the sympathizers of Jeff. Davis. Among the exceptions we may mention those who on Monday last called at the State Department to express their congratu- lations on the fall of Richmond, viz:—First, the Austrian Minister, Count Wydenbruck; then the Consul General of Switzerland; next the Swedish Minister, Baron Wetterstedt; the Prus- sian Minister, Baron Gorolt, and Mr. Burnley, British Chargé d’ Affaires, in the absence of her Majesty’s newly appointed minister, Sir Freder- ick Bruce. But there was, it appears, no con- gratulatory representative at the State Depart- ment during the day in behalf of France, Rus- sia, Spain or the kingdom of Italy. ‘I'he reason, we are informed, is that the legations of those governments at Washington are strongly im- pregnated, one way or another, with the fallacies of secession, rebeHion and Southern independence. It is not sur- prising that nobody appeared in behalf of Louis Napoleon, considering the new danger to which Maximilian of Mexico is exposed with {he downfall of deff, Davis. The Russian am- Dbassador, We fear, has been misrepresenting his “august master;” but how is it young Italy was not represent>d on the cccasion referred to? We know that her people are not only the friends of our national cause, but that they are its warmest supporters in Burope. In the bicss- ings of their union, and from their long expe- rience in the troubles and disasters resulting from their past divisions into petty States and duchies, they comprehend the justice of our Union and the necessity of maintvining it. Their minister at Washingion, accordingly, should have been foremost, in person or by proxy, to congratulate Mr. Seward on the fall of Richmond. Secession influences, we fear, have controlled the Italian minister in this im- portant metier. To his case, therefore, and to every other one of the corps diplomatique of the same inconsistent character, the attention of the government represented should be drawn, in view of the new departure touching our foreign affairs which the administration at Washington will now be ow be required to take. Two-Tameps.—When Jeff. Davis went down to Georgia last September he reported that two- thirds of his enlisted soldiers were absent with- out leave. He is now supposed to be again on the road to Georgia to report that the other third are gone. Rerrwvrion.—South Carolina, in dragging Virginia into the rebellion, proclaimed the death of the Union; Virginio, in holding South Carolina to the defence of Richmond, has been the death of the rebellion. A Provoxivo Mistake. —In . April, 1861, Mrs. Joff. Davis was promised an early visit to the White House at Washington; in April, 1865, Mra. Lincola, in a journey to Richmond, re- turns the promised call, and finds Mrs. Davis “ not at home”—gone, perhaps, to Washington. Such is life. Personal Intelligence. It affords us much pléasure to be able to contradict the report of Major General Potter's death. The latest tele- grams to the General's family state that ho is seriously, but it is hoped not fatall wounded. News from British Columbia—The Rus- so-American Telegraph.

Revolution in the Siate of Panama—The Mosquera-Calancha Government Over- thrown and a New Executive Installed— Foreign Interests Respected by the Peo- ple, c&e. The Panama Railroad Company's bark Bolivia, Captain Whiteberry, from Aspinwall, arrived at this port yester- day morning after a voyage of sixteen days, We are indebted to Captain Whitebarry, of the Bolivia, forthe prompt delivery of the following important ad- vices from our special correspondent at Panama:— OUR PANAMA CORRESPONDENCE. Panama, March 18, 1865. Revoiution in Panama and a New Government—Quick Passage of the Bark Xanthe from New York, de. I try the oxperiment of sending a short despatch by the Panama Railroad Company's bark Bolivia, as there is something very roliabie about this line of sailing vessels. Arevolution against the government occurred in this city on the 9th instant, which was most successful, tho powors that wore being run out of the city, with many of their adherents, with but little trouble, only five or six being killed and as few more wounded, The late Pyesident, Sefior Calancha, with one of his sec- retaries, Seflor Morro, sought and found protection on board tho United States ship St. Marys. The whole affair way over in two hours, which was mainly owing to the troups of the republic in garrison here taking part with the revolutionisis, resistance to thera being of no avail. Not a foreigner was molested in the slightest degree cither in person or property. The day following Jil Colunje, a prominent and worthy citizen, was named provisional President. He at once organized a government, which has been recogni: all the forcign consuis, amd which gives promise for the future. This revolut.onary movement has been ‘‘ backed = by all tho best citizens of tho place, and I have yet to meet a foreigner or native who does not express himself highly gratified at the change that has taken place in the State government. Advices from Bogota say that President Murillo a tendered his resignation in consoquence of his bein, posed to the expected hostilities with Ecuador. Guiterez is said to be acting in his stead.
