Charlkstox, April 14.—Maj. Anderson and
his men will leave this evening, at high tide,
in steamer Isabel for New York. The fleet is
■till outside our bar. The people of the North
denounce Amlersou as a traitor for surrender
ing to the Confederate authorities.
■Washington, April 14.—President Lincoln
will to-morrow issue his Proclamation, calling
forth the Militia, in the aggregate seventy-five
thousand men. lie will order the suppression
of all combinations In the seceded States,
against the Federal Government, and require
the laws to be rigidly executed. The first ser
vice require4 of the Militia will, probably, be
to aid in repoesessing the forts, arsenals and
other property which have been seised from
the Federal Government. The Proclamation
also convenes the Congress at Washington on
tho fourth of July next. The War Department
have been busy to-day (8unday) in the prepar
ation of the details to be oomuiunicatod imme:
diately (o the authorities of tho aoceded States.
An additional number of Foderal troops arriv
ed here to-day by special train.
Bombardment of Port Sumter.
We eepy the following interesting account
of the Bombardment of Sumter from the Char
leston Courier of the 13th instant. The Cour
ier, after recaptulating (he facta in referenoe
to the demand upon M^). Anderson to turreu
der—the rations communications which pass*
ed between the General commanding, and onr
Government at Mouigomeryall ( of which
were published in onr paper of Sunday morn
ing)—speaking of the calm, firm determina-
tion’of our gallant troops, &c., says :
The crisis bad arrived, and we wore fully
prepared to meet it. The work that awaited
the ( morrow was of a momentous character,
but we bad counted the cost, and had resolv
ed lo do It or die in tho at tempt.
At ike gray of the morning of Friday the
roar of canuon broke upon the ear. The ex-
K ed sound was answered by thousands.—
houses were in a few minutes emptied of
their excited occupants, and tbo living stream
poured through all tho streets leading to tho
wharves and Unitery. On resetting our boon-
tilul promenade we fouud it linod with ranks
of onger spectators, and all the wharves com
manding n view of tbo battle were erowded
thickly with human form*. On no gala ao-
casion have wo over aeea nearly so larga a
number of ladioa on onr Battery aa graced
the breesy walk on this eventful morning.—
There they stood with palpitating hearts sad
palid face* watching the white smoke as it
rose in wreaths upon (be soft twilight air, and
breathing out fervent prayers for their gillant
kinsfolk at the guns. Of what a conflict ra
ged in those heaving bosoms between love for

HMMf
proudly in the breeze. The batteries oonUngfd
at regular intervale to beloh iron vengeance,
and etill no nnewer was returned by the
About an hour after (he Dooming began, two
balls rushed Dietiag through tho air, and gtan
ced harmless from the iteecoed brioks of Fort
Mowltrie. Tbo embrasures of the hostile far-
troM gave forth no sound again till between
•tx and sevtn o'clock, wban, as if wrathful
from enforced delay, from estimate and para
pet the United 8(a(ee officer poured a storm of
iron hail upon Fort Moultrie, Stevens* Iron
Battery and the Floating Battery. The broad,
side was returned with spirit by the gallant
gunoere at theeo important posts.
Tho firing now began in good earneot. The
curling white smoke hung above the angry
pieces of friend and foe, and (he jarring boom
rolled at regular intervals on the anxious ear.
The atmosphere was charged with the smell
of villainous saltpetre, and ae if ia sympathy
with the melaneboly scene, the sky wae cov
ered with heavy clouds, and everything wore
a sombre aspect.
A boat bearing dispatches to General Beau
regard frem Morris' Island, reached the city
about nine o’clock, reported that all the bat
teries were working admirably ; that no ono
was injured, and I bat the men were wild with
enthusiasm.
A short lime after that happy news was re
ceived, the schooner retrill, from Hog Island
Channel, reported that the shot from 8tevena*
Iron Battery had told upon |fhe walls of Fort
Sumter. And also that Fort Moultrie bad
sustained no damage.
About half-past nine o'clock, Capt. R. 8.
Parker reported from Sullivan’s Island to Mt.
Pleasant, that everything was in fine condi
tion at Fort Moultrie, and that the soldiers
had escaped unhurt.
The same dispatch stated that the embras
ures of the Floating Battery were undamaged
by the shock of the shot, aud though that for
midable structure had been struck eleven
times, the balls bad not started a single bolt.
Anderson hsd concentrated bis fire upon
the Floating Battery, and the Dahlgren Batte
ry, under command of Lieutenant Hamilton.
A number of shells hsd dropped into Fort
Bumter, and one gun enbarbette had been dis
mounted.
The following cheering tidings weie brought
to the city by Col. Edmund A’ates, Acting
Lieutenant to Dozier, of the Confederate States
Navy, from Fort Johnson. Bterens' Battery
nod the Floating Battery are doing important
service. Stevens’ Battery baa made consider
able progress in breaching the South and
Southwest walPe of Fort Sumter. The North
west wall is suffering from the well aimed fire
of the Floating Battery, whose shot have dis
mounted several of the guns on the parapet,
and made it impossible to use the remaining
ones. The Howitzer Battery, connected wilh
the impregnable Gun Battery, at Cumming’s
Point, is managed with consamate skill and
terrible effect.
Eleven o'clock — A messenger from Mor
ris’ Island brings the glorious news that the
shot glanoe from the iron covered battery at
Cumming’e Point, like marbles thrown by a
child on the back of a turtle. Tbe upper por
lion of tho 8ontbwest wall of Fort Sumter
•hows plainly the effect of tbe terrible can
nonade from the formidable product of Mr. C,
H. Stephens’ patriotism and ingenuity.*
A half an hour later the gladsome tidings
came that Stephens' battery was fast dama
ging tbe Southwest well of Sumler.
Henry Buist is doing gallant service with
the Palmetto Guards, delighting all hearts by
assuring us in the city that everything was go
ing on well at the Iron Battery, which was
•till proof against silly eight pounders, and
the men in good spirits.
A boat reached the oily from the Floating
Battery about half-paet twelve o’clock, and
reported that a sket from Fort Sumter pene
trated (he top or shed of tbe structure, and
three shots struok the sand bags in the rear
of the Battery
Anoibdr messenger wbo arrived a short time
after tho above was bulletined, confirms the
oheerful news.
Twelve o'clock.—We have just learned by
an arrival from Cumming's Point, that tbe
batteries there are doing good servioe~3te
pben’s Battery very successful. Not a single
oaeualty has beppened. Tbe troops are in the
beet spirits. Two of the guns at Fort Sumter
appear to be disabled. Considerable damage
bae been done to the roofs of the offeor'e
quarters.
At one o’clock, the following wae reoeived
from Morris’ Island: Two guns in Stephens’
Battery temporarily disabled, Anderson’s fire
haviog injured tbe doore of Ibe embrasure*.
The damage will be repaired speedily. It is
thought Fort Sumter will be breached In two
hours. Three eteom vessel* ef war were soon
off the bar, one of IbsRa supposed to bo the
Harriet Lane.
Capt. R. 8. Parker reached the city from
Fort Moultrie at half-past two o’olock, and
makes the following report: Captain Parker
visited Fort Moultrie and the Enfilading Bat
tery near by, and found all well and in high

Stephens’ Iron Battery played a eonspiscu-
ous and important part in the brilliant, and as
far ns our sien are concerned, bloodless, eon-
fliet, which has placed the 12tb of April, 1861,
among tbe Memorable days. The calibre of
its guns, its nearutss to Fort Sumter, its per
fect impenetrability, tbo coldness and skin of
its gallant gunners, made the fortifieaiien on*
of the most formidable of Maj. Anderson’s ter
rible opponents. The effect of its Dahlgreen’s
nnd 64 ponnders was distinctly visible at an
early stage of the oonfliot. Clouds of mortar
and brick dust arose from the Southwest wall
of the fort ae the shot hissed on their errand
of deafb. Shot after shot teld with terrible
effect on the strong wall, and at about three
’clock Major Anderson ceased to return Ibis
murderous fire. In tbe course of the after
noon tbe joyful tidings that abroach had been
effected in that portion of the fortress was
borne to tbe citj.
We dare not close this brief and harried
narrative of the first engagement between th*
United States nod the Confederal# States,
without returning thanks to Almighty God for
the great success that has thus far crowned
our arms, and for tbe extraordinary preserva
tion of our soldiers from casualty and death.
In tbe fifteen hours of almost incessant firing,
our enemy, one of the most nsperienoed artil-
eriets, no iojury has been sustained by • sin
gle one of our gallant soldiers.
Tne result of the conflict strengthens nnd
confirms our faith in tbs justness of the cause
for whose achievement we have suffered oblo
quy, and dared perils of vast magnitude. At
the outset of (he struggle we Invoked tbe
saootion and aid of that God whom we serve,
and His hand has guided and defended us all
through tbe momentous conflict. His favor
was most signally, we bad almost said mirao-
ulously, manifested on this eventful day.—
We call the roll of those engaged in the bat
tle, and each soldier is here to answer to bis
name. No tombstone will throw ite shadow
upon that bright triumphant day. If so it
seemeth good io the eyes of Him, in whoso
bands art tbe issues of life, we fervently pray
that our brave sons may pass unharmed
through the perils of the day now dawning.
A Choice Must be Made.
With whatever reluctance honest, well-mean
ing Union men may coma to an election be
tween n Northern and Southern government
—between eonetitntional liberty and fanatical
misrule—still that alaction has to ba made.
The elements North and South, in despite
of all offorta at compromise, in despite of char
ity aud peaoe loving affection, it most he con
fessed, and intrinscicallv antagonistic, and
can no more harmonise than alkali and aeid
ean consist without offerveacanoe. It has
been honestly, earnoatly and patriotically tried
for maoy years. Th* best men nt the North
have lifted up their voices in vain. They
have been ostracised politically, and rudely
thrust from tb* publio service. They could
not stem the torrent of popular fanaticism.—
The South hee submitted, begged and implor*
ad for peaea—only for peaoo, until tha pa
tience of tbeir peopla wan exhausted,. and,
driven io tho last extremity, they have acted
for themselves.
It now remains for the border slave States
to choose whether they will live in peace and
security with tbeir senthern brethren, under
a constitutional government affording protec
tion to property and tha bleating# of pence
and tranquility to society ; or whether they
will be perpetually embroiled, threatened in-
suited, and siogled out for odium under a gov
ernment wbioh is thoroughly abciitlonited.—
