Speaking of Sherman's objective point, and the forces to co-operate with him, the Times says: Our army before Wilmington, as well as at Newbern and other points of North Carolina, is now under command of Major-General Scofield, one of the ablest officers in the Union army. He was associated with Sherman in his advance upon Atlanta, was subsequently with General Thomas in his late glorious campaign in Tennessee, and held the command, also, at the ever-memorable victory at Franklin.
