Fort Pickens.
The principal means cf defences tc the mouth of
Pensacola bay and the naval station is lort 1 ick
ens. This fort is a first class bastioned fort,
built of New York granite, and situated on low
ground on the east point of Santa Rosa Island.
Its walls are forty five feet in height by twelve
feet in thickness; it is embrasured for two tiers of
guns, which are placed under the botnb-p ooi case
mates, besides having one tier of guns en barbette.
The guns from this work radiate to every point on
the horizon, Avith ilank and enfilading fire at every
angle of approach. The work was commenced in
1828, and finished in 1853. It cost the United
States Government nearly one million of dollars.
When on a war footing its garrison consists of one
thousand two hundred and silty soldiers. Its
armament, only a portion of wh!Bh is in its wb.lls,
consists of—

The fire from this Work completely covers the
Navy Yard, which could not hold out long against
Fort Pickens. The bar on the exterior of the bay
is three miles distant, and beyond that there arc no
facilities for a hostile fleet to lie in safety.

Tr<fa< hi ry of
If anything it is certain, is that the nation has been
led to believe that a pacific policy would be pui
sued. The original Republican war-ery of “Coer
cion” had been completely abandoned by the party
press. It was not supposed that the Adniisistra
tion would lO'C any favorable opportunity to re
establish the authority of the Gov eminent where it
hail temporarily y ielded to the force of sece-sion—
but that nothing unnecessarily irritating would be
attempted—that it would not strike the mortal
blow—and that full ami fair opportunity would be
allowed f r time and natural causes to work out a
great problem, beyond the reach of politicians, and
tit only for the highest faculties of statesmen and
patriots. Mr. Lincoln had expressly declared that
the United States would make no assault, unless
first assailed. The evacuation of Fort Sumter was
held to he certain therefor, —for why should it be
retained as a cause of quarrel, usele.-s as it was to
the Government now, and equally useless :iB it
would he, if ever Strongly reinforced, or ever so
pcrsistenly held ?
But suddenly the scene changes. Without ap
parent reason a formidable squadron is despatched
its destination believed to be Charleston, the com
mander at Fort Sumter is called upon to evacuate
the fortress, which he refuses to do, and his refu
sal is clearly based upon information conveyed to
him, that the squadron is On its way to reinforce
him. The policy ol the Administration, therefore,
is coercion, after all, and it is in vain to deny or
evade the fact, that the Smith Carolinans are first
assailed by those who approach them for the pur
pose of reducing them to submission. It is useless 1
to ask, under such circumstances, who fired the '
first gun—the assault is made by him who threat- |
ens it, by whichever party the first actual blow is
struck. The deterrnii.ation ol tlie Administration, j
therefore, iv to coerce, and the future will soon i
shew wb'it advatitages ate to be gained by the
pursuit of such policy. — Ros'on Courier.
A ’ ’'•rch- nt was ono day returning from market.
Ho v son ' •••' back, ami behind 11 ni was a valise

the g ' A man was wet to the skin. At this he :
was vex- I. and murmured he-atise God ha 1 given
him such bad weather for his journny. He s >on
reached the borders of a thick forest. A\ hat was
his terror oti beholding, ot one side of the road, a
robber with level gun, aiming at him, and attempt

spurs to his horse, fortunately had time to escape.
As soon as he found himself safe, lie said to hitn
yelf;“How wrong was I not to endure the rain
patiently, as sent by Providence ! If the weather
had been dry and fair, I should not, probably, have
been alive at this time, and my little children I
would have expected my return in vain. The rain 1
which caused me to inunfinr came at a fortunate

. Correspondence, of the Advocate.
Jasper. Ga., April 18, 1861.
Mr. Editor— Dear Sir: For some time it has,
been.or at !e ist some have made it,their provi nee to.
speak disreputably of Pickens County, on the apr
count of the position she has (so said) occupied in
reference to our Federal affairs. Sir, she has been
slandered, and it is due her name and her patriotic
citizens to deny the accusations brought against
her. It has been said that vve were disloyal to the
Southern Confederacy—that we \vero advocates of
Lincoln’s Administration. This is prematurely
false. I atn proud to say, and thereby inform our
sister counties, that to-night, upon the recepti
the almost plaiisifily-confirmed dispatches that d ir
ginia had seceded, we some twenty five or
more guns.in h.dpor.o! hp r hoped-for patriotic ac
tion. M,uch bjithiisiasm prevailed, and still pre
vails. But few are they who are to tho
Southern
“as mute mice;," ‘One or two bemen here,
in close private consultation, discussing t|ic|plausi
bility of our success, and , the policy of .'immediate
change on their part. Such,. Mr.- Editor,.are wire
working, and thirsty political, demagogues, who
heretofore made some little head 1 way;,by presum
ing upon the ignorance cf ft frfee apd jealous class,
and pleading the eatisO of the glorious Stars and
Stripes to itching ears of the dear people.
Besides, Pickens County is now making prepara
tion to march into the service of the Southern Con
federncy, a regular drilled Volunteer Company.
She ia bound to send her share pro rata to defend
the cause of secession, and to protect their rights
inviolate from Northern aggression, in spite, of
home Dcmagogueism. Such, sir, is our position.
Wc now 1 lok upon the issue as being one of Whig
and Tory ; and we prefer bearing the former, to
the latter appellation. .
I hope you will, therefore, do us the credit of
setting us right before your readers, and thereby
repel th® treacht rotis insinuations tlu’t have been
thrown out to stigmatise a free people who love
their sunny South and dare defend it.

From the Atlanta Intelligencer.
jaisglisA View of Coercion,
Lord Palmerston has again, in a public address,'
emphatically expiessed the hope that the questions
at i-sue between the Uniled States Government
and the Confederate States may be sett led without an
appeal to arms. The same sentiment is reiterated
without excepton, as we are aware of, |>y the whole
English press. The civilized world L oks with hor
ror and amazement at the dire portents of this fra
tricidal and suicidal strife. Tho Lincoln Cabinet
! stands alone among the Governments of the who e
civilized word in preferring a bloody arbitrament
for tins American quarrel. All Christendom raises
its voice against it : and even in the North, it is a
minoritv elected ruler alone who seeks to involve
this nation in such unparalleled horrors. Tho
journals of France, the most warlike of foodern
nations, cry aloud against this most unnecessary
and iniquitous appeal to battle, and of.JJng
land pronottnoe the crime of the act only equalled
by its folly. The London Star says :
~ Under any circumstances, such a war as that
which is now impending between the Northern
and Southern States is an aet of madness. Suits
for the restitution of conjugal rights are as foolish
between nations as between individuals.
“ Let the ill-assorted pair agree to live apart—
they may be mutually civil as friends, though their
dispositions would not brook closer intimacy. We
should not be displeased to see a divorce declared
between the North and its uncongenial mate, the
South. But in any case a struggle to avert it by
force of arms would be not only a folly,but a crimb.
It seems vain to hope that the commencement of
Mich a warlike strife can now be averted. But wo
cherish the bfilief that it will not be of protracted
duration ; arid that before long the coinbntanfß;
yielding to the force of circumstances, if hot to the
inspirations of wisdom, wil! shake hands and agree
to go their separate ways in peace.”
Ucjoict: g aniuug the Colored I’cpnlntion.
No other class of our population seemed to be
m re jubilant over the surrender of Fort Sumter
than fl>o. cnlore.l. At every depot and Mcppirg
planthe rail road, from Greenville to Columbia,
on 8 inday last, crowds of nogros were assembled,
rejoicing at the result of the conflict between the
tronps of the federal Government and those of tho
Confederate States. There is to-day morehumbleness
anti good feeling, mure contentment, among our
negroS than at any period cf our history.
