Fortunate- lj far the graUftoatka, of )h. ,ftjidjadaaira to hear the newt from the teat of War, we had completed our Telegraphic arrangements, and received our Aral rffipatoitf yesterday, Which were given to the fmbHe W an EXTRA, ahort- ly after 3 o'clock—a considerable edition oi whieh were quickly told, nod aep piled to many of our exchanges. We Ore able to announce that our Telegraphic arrangements are perma nent, and our patina wifi always find our morniag issues to contain the latest news, up to tha hour of going to jureas. All day yesterday, groups of onr oilmens were gathered about the corners of the streets, near the Post Office, the Depots, do. discussing the War topics. We heard hundreds of our patriotic citizens express a burning desire to be at the post of danger, to defend our Country, if war should come. We mention, however, as a remarkable feature of the excitement, that a large majority with whom we eon versed, of heard express opinions, believe there will, af ter all, be no war, or at least very little. We Still hope ws shall be spared the calamity of a bloody war; but if the fenelioal Nigger Repub lican North is resolved to force it on us, we are ready to meet it. The forces of the World in arms can never conquer our people; and if we could be conquered, we would all die in the last ditch before we would yield one inch to the dictation of the Nigger-Republican-Lincoln Government. New* From Charleston. We learn by a very intelligent gentleman— a resident of Charleston, who left there yester day, and arrived here this morning—that the highest state of excitement exists in that oity, io consequence of the war-like news received there. Night before last, Lincoln’s war fleet was discovered just off* the harbor, making an effort to enter in the night without being perceived; but General Beeurlgard's vigilance has all tbe while been sleepless. Continually, night and day, he has kept hie cutters ou the lookout) end hence, the war fleet was discov ered as soon as it hove in sight The alarm vris at once given, and every man was soon at his post and ready for any attack that might be mgde. The news was immediately tele graphed all over the State, and troops by the thousands are now pouring in to take a hand in tbe first brush. Our informant further states that Lieut. Tal bot and tbe gentleman who accompanied him from Washington, were both taken charge of by the authorities and refused permission to go to Fort Sumter, as he was told would be the case before he left. His dispatches were taken from him, and Major Anderson knows nothing of their contents, snd will not. Lieut. Talbot and his companion were put on the cars and sunt back to Washington yesterday. Brownlow on Lincoln. Tbe above is the caption of an article in the Knoxville " Whig ” of the 2d instant, in which the editor, in trying to justify himself for the unqualified endorsement which he gave Lin- ooln's Inaugural, and for which he has been so universally condemned by the prees of the South—even by the ultra-Union papers of his own and adjoining States—says: “flincowe wrote and published this para graph, (alluding to his previous intemperate wholesale indoriementor Lincoln's Inangural,) Alexander Hamilton Stephens, the Vice-Pree- idoot of the Southern Confederacy, having more time to study and reflect, and weigh the Inaugural is all its part*, pronounce* 'Mr. Lincoln’* Inaugural one of the ableet and most iugenuous state paper*, 1 (he) ever read.’ Af ter this, we will be pardoned for our opinion.” We do not believe that Mr. Stephen* ever made such a pronunciamento about Lincoln’* Inaugural. We never saw it, if he did—and our opportunities to see such have been as good as those of the editor of the “ Whig, know that Mr. Stephens never said so foolish a thing.

The quietmam of tnen and things surprises one.

We lever #*w people calmer. In town, village, county and crossroads, they are sober in conversation and quiet in demeaner. Evidently jt ie not the calmness of suppres sion, but of oonvietioo and determination.— Lees bluster and big talk than one sees and hears at a country election. Ns whittling to kse)> the courage up. No norsing of wrath to keep it warm. They are in an uncommon bland humor. Even the phillippice, taunts, aad insoltiDg.paragraphsof the Abolition prees do pot ruffle thsiff temper* as they »<* <lo. They regard them as‘outside things, pretty much as we in th* Uoited States regard the pratioga of Exeter Hall and the swell sentences of the Spanish Cortes about our affairs and in stitutions. The extremeet appointments of Mr.Xincoln are coolly commented on—“No cooeern of ours.” 2. They are not only quiet, but determined Those people are gone, and gone for good The child is not born that will see them return.— We do not believe one man in a thousand en tertains the idea oi reconstruction. If ever re construction takes place, it must proceed from the other side. They never will come back on any terms. Any one who talks with slave holders and non-slaveholders, large planters and email planters, merchants and mechanics will be obliged yield to the cherished idea of reconstruction. Their State governments never ware in better action, and never before did the people as highly prise them. With their Federal Government they are pleased its officers, Congress and Constitution. What ever may be said on Wall street of their want of resources for sustaining a government, they feel no uneasiness on that score. The differ ence between their commercial system and that of the Northern States, under the present and future possible tariffs, opens te (heir view a* all in their favor. With trifling State debts, and ample resources, they feel safe on the fi nanclal question. We actually heerd such expression as this—smile at it as you may— “The fact is, those poor fellows at tbe North, I don't see how they are to get along. Southern custom lost; the difference between the tariffs turning everything to our ports ; we making our own bread ; their East and West arrayed against each other; in debt, and no prospect of paying out; their credit ten per cent under f iar, and ours above par—for our fifteen million oan will be taken atone hundred aod four cents in the dollar—what will they do ?” Put that speech in your pipe and smoke it We heard it, aud that too, frutn a sensible citizen They have their stars, too, and like them have no objection to see the constellation en larged, but will live and die under tbe seven if not another is added. Thoee who have held on to the glorious old Union with the patriotic hope of mediating a reconstruction and bring ing back the lost pleiads may give that hope up. We distinctly deepsir of it now, if never bofore. It is not a question ot stars any more, bat only of stripes. The Southern Confederacy is not merely an accomplished but a fixed fact —no experiment The border 8tates may behold the question narrowed down to this—a choice between the stars and etripee and the seven stare. The Union is already divided, and it is left for them, now that their unselfish and self-sacrificing efforts to prevent that catastrophe have failed, to set tle this simple question. On which side do their personal and social sympathies and industrial interest lit? Virginia Convention. On Saturday last, a memorial, numerously signed by ciliaeut of Norfolk county, praying the Convention to pass an Ordinance of Seces sion, was presented by Col. John R.Chambliss, of Greensville. Mr. Hall complained that bis name had been published, in the official proceedings, incor rectly. The printer had substituted an e for •a «, making it read JIdl! [Great Laugh- ter] The Rmltko and Joneses. In ih* List of Letters published in the At lanta papers of this week, there are tetters for tea Smiths, (eeveral of them for John Smith,) —wore than one third of the 8’s. And right for the Joneses—about one-third of the J’a.— We think that about one-third of the popula tion of Atlanta are of the names of Smith snd Jones. There need to be eight Captain John Joneses there, to our own certain knowledge, and how many more we are not able to say, hut presume there sre five or six more by this lima—Qrijftn Union. We thank our cotemporary of the “Union” fur tbe charitablo construction he has put oa the matter. Ws once heard a gentleman, who wss looking over tbe list of our advertised let ters, and observed tbe large number ef Smiths and Jonses, say, that the people of this name must surely be mors ignorant than those of any other, as they paid less attention to their correependeaee. Bui we do not see by whet rale of arithme tic the ad iter ef the “Union” arrives at the eenelaaiao that about oee-thted ef tha papu lation of oop oily are named Smith and Jones, merely because about oas-third of the a 'me* in tbe Hit of advertised letters eommeouing with the Initials t aad J, are so named. We Pass Him Round. Dr. John T. Horne, a dentist, who has been reeidiug et Anderson C. H, 8. C-, for twelve years pest, was a few days ago expelled from the State by the citizens of Anderson, on count of Abolitionism, and his treachery to bis State. He had been writing letters to the Northwest —some of which had got into the Abolition press—urging the Northern people to maintain tha United States authority nvor us, and crush out secession by force of arms—retake the Forte, collect tbe revenue, Ac. One of thoee letters, writteu by him on the 24th January, to Indiana, wee obtained; and though he denied the charges made against him when first arrested by the citizens, he owned np when tbe letter was produced. He confeeeed that be deserved hanging, whieh would have been done, but tor tbe font that he had a wife, whom he had married at thatplace —an estimable and most respectably connected lady-—aad elao had two small children—all dependant upon him for a support. The young men of the place carried him out to tbe su burb! aod administered twenty stripes in moat approved style j and next morning saw him and hi* distressed family off on the cars for a place outside of the slave States. That the Southern communities may know the offender in this instance, and be prepared to reoeive him, we would state that Dr. Home is about 5 feel 6 or 7 inches high, weighs per haps 126 pounds, sallow complected, with red heir—half-shaved at present, and one leg some what shorter than the other, making a hitch in hie walk. He is rather intelligent, con verses tolerably well, and I* “ potted ” on the late political affairs. We trust that he will meet with a safa transit to hi* destined home among the sympathisers of John Brown in the Northwest. $9* The following Is a special despatch to the New York “ Herald” of the Gib Instant: The petee mission of tbe Virginia Union leadere, who had an Interview with the Presi dent end members of tbs Cabinet last evening, for the purpose of urging the continuation of tha present military etmtae al Fort riekens and the foregoing of the oolleeUen of the rev enue, has proved a failure.

WAsuncaToii, April 0.—Tbe f«eta sent lat>i night are reliably correct, and explain all the extraordinary movements going on in tbe War and Navy Department*. I now aend you tbe cause and theory which inaugurated this sud dec war polioy. The Administration believes that the Border Slavs States will not remain in the Union short of Compromises, which cannot be gran ted without ruining tbe Republican party and weaking the Free States. The compromise therefore, cannot and will not be granted, and as the States will ulti mately leave the Union and join the Southern Confederacy, it ie idle to attempt to save them at tbe eost of sc great a party responsibility. Their demands are regarded by Lincoln as too great for the North to heed. It is therefore Linooln's purpose now “to hold, possets and occupy the Forts,” as pro claimed in one part of his Inaugural Address. If oollision occur on landing men and provis ions at Fort Pickens, the South will inaugurate (he war wliioh the Administration will then maintain until matters culminate iu peace by a final recognition of Southern Indepeodonee through a treaty of Peaoe. The Secretaty of the Treasury denies that be deoeived anybody in regard to the Loan, #r avowed any particular Peace Policy. On the oentrary, he told some of the Loan takers that a brush wa* possible. These warlike anticipations restrains any of (he members of the Cabinet (except Mr. Blair, who has a house here for several years,) from taking permanent oity reeidencca.

Chaelkston, April 10.—Everything indicates that there will be a conflict shortly, but I can communicate nothing definite at present We copy the following from the Charleston Courier of tbe 9th instant: Return of Capt. T. Talbot.—Capt T. Talbot, who left Fort Sumter on the 6th instant, osten sibly to fill an appointment in Oregon, return ed last evening to this city, in company with one Mr. R. 8. Chew, acting in the capacity of a peculiar and M yet undisclosed character. On thoir arrival, they registered their names at the Charleston Hotel, tbe former at Captain T. Talbot, U. S. A., and the latter simply aa from Washington. It appears that whether there wee truth not in the statement that Captain Talbot had been appointed to a poet in Oregon, the readers of the Courier will remember that our dispatch es stated on his arrival in Washington he was closeted with the Cabinet, and also Held a long conference with Gen. Bcott The reenlt of hie departure from Fort 8umtcr, however, ia that instead of repairing te Oregon, Captain Talbot has returned with dispatches, it ie said, to Gov. Fickens and M^j. Anderson. Shortly after hie arrival, TaJbet had a private conference with Gov. Pickens and Gen. Beauregard. The result of tha conference has not trans pired, but vt Is well knoan that Talbot and hie companion received no permit to visit Fort Sumter. They returned last evening by the 11 o’clock train of the North-Eastern Railroad to Washington. It is stated, however, in wall in formed quarters, that the dispatches are te the effect that an unarmed storeship ha* been sent to this harbor avowedly, end in fact expressly stated in the dispatches, solely for the parpoee of victualling and provisioning Fort Sumter.
