From Sherman.

A dispatch has been received by General Grant from General Sherman, dated at Fayetteville, North Carolina, on last Sunday. General Sherman described his army as in fine health and spirits, and says he has met with no serious opposition. He says the rebel General Hardee's army still keeps in his front, at a respectful distance.

Sheridan.

Further intelligence from General Sheridan reports that, on last Monday, a portion of his cavalry was engaged in tearing up the railroad between Richmond and Hanover Junction, while the main body was pushing on towards the White House, on the Pamunkey river, where it was expected that supplies would reach him, to enable him to continue his work.

Grant.

General Grant has issued an important order, prohibiting all trade under Treasury or other permits with points within the rebel lines in the States of Virginia, North and South Carolina, and Georgia, and declaring void all contracts made under such permits. It is understood that this has been, in a great measure, called forth by the discoveries made in connection with the recent tobacco bacon speculation at Fredericksburg, Virginia.
