would point their bayonets hi the North. On
tl.e other hand, should a decision he reached to
rucaut the conclujion* of tho high-bounding pro
uunciumento with which its advent to power tvas
signalised, it would lose the support of the party
t whose efforts and success Its existence i* due
| aud would bo without a friend in tho world. To

I In admirable and improving contract with th’a

A geijiiemen who ha# v*iy teu-ly w.cu in ooiu-
Kiuni'-ution with iurt buiuur inter ms me that
the garribou is ou cxcsedingly small aliowuuov,
and that matters begin to look sorions with them.
Should the supplies notv daily obtained in iLiu
market he cut off, the nituatiou of the men would
I o highly ritieal, nod it is cot inrpossiUo that
! Major An lorson tony be compelled, ou his uwu
| rot>ponibilii v, to nbaudon his position. A* here
tofure lwrs been the case, the garrison will, no
doubt, continue to derive no slight a-teuutugu
from luaililic., fur catching hsh around Uu
bate of the fort. But there will be no timilur way
of renrulfing the supply ol fuel, which is now
neatly exhausted.
Jt is known iha’ wfi! in t)i last Ijw day* ijou.
Beauregard has given orders to eertaiu oj bis sub
ordinate* to “clear tho dock# ter action.” The
troops are made to practice daily at the heavy
guus and mortars, au.l we me thus treated to a
j miniature battle (uu one aide) almost daily. Ahe
• numbor ol men iu position has of late ln.cu di
| minished rather than increased, by tho termini’
tioa of the period of service of a number of vol
unteer companies. An entire regiment will go
out of service iu ii very short Hun It Is uot a
j little remarkable that nobody ro-eulistr, But uli
go to their homes to stay, ‘llie excellence ol a
j single term of enlist tutu t is qu>to enough. Iu
one month longer tho force* of South Carolina,
will, from this cause, become reduoast rnoru than
one-half.
Having finished the harbor defences, ‘lon.
Beauregardiceiuiuglyantlclpating tho preaeneeof
a body of Federal troop#, and with tho view of
providing ngaintt cracrgtneic#, ho* commenced
planting a mortar battery at Mount Pleasant
This point is too distnnt to take part iu an attack
on Fort Sumter, end therefore this battery muet
be designed for other uses. When Major Ander
son was In Fort Moultrie, audit was proposed to
drive him out, n battery ou Mount Pleo unt was
I commenced, a* that point was supposed Io cr-rn
-1 mand Moultrie. The inference therefore, h that
! the rebel* aro providing uguirut tbo time when
i Federal troop* will ro occupy that fort. There
aro other movement* that indicate tho same
thing Indeed, recent labors bavo mainly had
reference to land -jperatlons, by providing for an
attack in tbo rear.

all of the moebunio and industrial iutcrost# are
experiencing a depression, icarocly parallel In tho
previous history of tho country.
Thus,‘with nearly all the ordinary facilities

it i* a teet worthy of remark that although

single death from discuse during that time among
our forces, and tlio sick list bns at all times been
astonishingly small, making th© surgeon's duties

havn been constantly engaged in the most labo
