men wars unable longer to contend against tho
mors numerous foe in opposition, and beeause
bo knaw that he would uot, and could not, bo
roiuforesd, although a float of war vessels wars
ia sight, but had not attempted to aid him.
Tbs interior of Fort Sumter is an unsightly
mass of embers, and exhibits the sad sffsota of
firs from without and firs from within. A num
ber of tbs guns in tbsFortrsss are dismounted,
and a portion of tbs outer wall, which receiv
ed the balls from Cumating’s Point, has been
•lightly breached end otherwise jostled ont of
its symmetrical condition. There are some
•tones on this side which would now be con
demned or rejected by builders. The rifled
oannon done good work on this side.
Where the floating battery operated on Fort
Sumter, there are marked evidences of the sue
nsful mission of this novel battery.
Fort Moultrie done wonders during the bom-
bard moot, and poursd red hot shot into Sum

1 effect It is true that old Moultrie re
ceived pay in her own coin from Sumter, for
the officer's quarters and barracks ire badly
damaged, and many of the houses on the Is
land bear teatimony to the power of the balls
which were ahot from Sumter.
Strange as it may appear, 1 have not heard
reliably of any death or even serious wound to
any of the contending forces.
Thus far, the war has resulted in the favor
of the South Carolina troops, and I trust vic
tory will ever perch upon the banner of the
Confederate States. Good night
Halifax, N. 8., April 18.—Intelligsnee was
received here to-day of the bombardment of
Fort Sumter. The news was announced in the
Legislature amidst intsnse emotion. The an

Rtsolotd, That we have board, with the
deepest sorrow and regret of the outbreak and
civil war among our iriends and neighbors in

Waabsotox, April 14.—President Lincoln
has answered the Virginia Commissioners in
writing. Hs first copies a portion of the Inau
gural about tha forte, public property, aad col
lections of the revenue, and ra-affirue but re
grets the uncertainty which hee been attached
to the principles and policy announced in hie
Inaugural. He simply intended to refer by
bis inaugural to soeb property ae woe then in
possession of the Federal Govern meat. He
now declares that if the reported attempt to
taka possession of Fort Sumter is verified, be
will re-poeoeet all pleats previously bald by
tha Government of the United States, and re*
pel, in all cases, force by force.
He states further that if Fort Snmter is at-
tasked, ha will withdraw all mail facilities
from the Confederate States, and will regard
snob a state of aotoal war •• justifying such n
course. *
He considers all military posts as much in
the Union as thsy were before the passage of
the Ordinaneee ef secession, and white bo
says be will not invade any of the discontented
Stelae to eolieet tha revenue, be will land
troops to relieve the forte. He repeats that bo
adheres to bis whole Inaugural.

^HF* Peterson Thweatt, Esq., the Comptrol
ler-General, has decided that the Act of 1818,
which requires twenty days* notice to be given
in each Captain’s District, before the election
of a Colonel or Major, “does not require or pro
vide for the publication in any newspaper of
such noticesbut only contemplates the post
ing up of written notices. He says that if <
didates for these offices desire such notices to
go into newspapers, they, and not the State,
must bear the expense.
The Secession Meeting.
The meeting last evening, at the Court House,
was the largest and most unanimous, the most
eothusiaslio and orderly, the most dignified,
and characterized by a spirit of the most awfnl
determination, of any publio meeting that we
have ever attended. We have no room for any
general remarks—the proceedings will be
found in another column.
Hon. F. K. Zollicoffsr, V. K Stevenson, M.
Vaughn, Maney, Foots, Frasier, Burch, and
tho vsDtrablt Col. Putnam addressed the meet’
Ing. All of tho speeches took tbs ground that
the last hop# was gone, the last plaak was shiv
ered ou the deceitful and warlike polioy of tho
Cabinet nt Washington.
Tho strongest Union men of two months
ago, took tut most advanoed ground in favor
of tho Stott's declaring to the Cabinet at Wash
ington that the cause of the Confederate States
was the cause of Toanoseoo; that the holding
and possessing Fort Sumter, or any other fori
in those states, was war on tho people of those
States now iu or out of tho Union having the
same interests end t ht same homogeneous ohar-
aotor. No bombast, not a word of useless or ex
citing character was heard that did not spring
from the deepest feeling sod tbs most fixed
determination.
During tho mooting the dispatch from Char*
lesion, announcing the surrender of Fort Sum •
tor, was received with tbs most deafening
shout, nnd tho Flag of the Confederate States
was wsloomsd with cheer upon eh tor of the
most rapturous applause.—NashviUs Ornette,

Alzxardbia, April 14.—The publication of
Lineoln’s Proclamation has greatly increased
the eeoeasioa feeling hero and throughout the
Stale. Business of all kinds is completely sus
pended, and merchants and citisens are en
gaged in the discussion of the probability of a
prolonged sanguinary civil war. It is the
general impression that the Virginia Conven
tion will instantaneously pass a a Ordinance of
Secession, or call a Border State Conference.

Tbs bill to amend the Telegraph Corporation
law so as to authorize the prevent companies
to consolidate and eztend their liner to Salt

the Senate.
A bill has beeu introduced in the l.egislas

The news of the formation of the territory
of Nevada has given great satisfaction to the
citizens of the Washoe mining region. A brisk
scramble for the local offices under the organ
ization, has already commenced.
Coal oil springs are reported as haviug been
discovered North and South in Humboldcoua
ty. Considerable interest appears to have
sprung up in the development of this new
wonder near Los Angeles. Tho oelebratod
springs o! asphaUum are said to issue from a
bed of coal capable of furnishing inezhausti
ble quantities of ibe oil. The amount of coal
shipped from the Cumberland and Black Dia
mond coal mines, Mount Diablo, to Ban Fran
cisco is reported to be between seven and
eight hundred tons. The tutinels of the mines
are situated 1500 feet above the level of the
bay. The consumption of eoal in California
last year was 80,000 tons, of which the amount
supplied from tha Pacific coast was only 1 .">00
tons. The Solano Herald thinks the Cumber
land and Black Diamond mines alone will yield
60,000 tons per year.
