BY JOSEPH BARBER. “God keep our hands from fratricidal war!” Be this, each day, each Christian freeman’s prayer: If the great bond that made us what we are Must needs be torn and given to the air Yet let us not, at least, each other tear. Why, if in unity we may not dwell, Should State on with murderous purpose glare, And while crowned tyrants mad with rapture yell. Strike with opposing swords the Union’s final knell. Shull we, sworu priests of Freedom one and all, Charged with her oracles of all mankind, Before her shrine to bloody buffets fall And taint with gore her altars, olive-twined? No, should those part whom God, with blessings, joined, Let tears, not blood, be at the parting poured, And sighs, not shrieks, be borne upon the wind, Let us not shame our Past with deeds abhorred, Let not our Gordian knot be sundered bv tbe sword! Woe to the wretch—if such a wretch there be— Clothed with “the spirit of the first born Cain” Whose hand, in factious strife, on any plea, The first red drop of kindred blood shall stain, For of that drop would come a crimson rain, And of that ruin a deluge. Far and wide Let Reason shout her shibboleth —“refrain !” For should the angels from their mansions glide, They could not, once begun, arrest the fratricide. The sundering of a people is an act, if done at all, that should be calmly done. To rend in haste the Union's solemn pact, Is such a deed as Lucifer might shun. Our course has been majestically run, And somethiug yet to decency is due, And to the mouldering bones of Washington ! Shall we with bloody hands his work undo, Making his hopes a jest, his boding fears too true ? One sober second thought! ’Tis not too late To save the nation from this damning siu, Though Revolution thunders at the gate, And mad extremists bid the monster in. Have we no love of country and of kin, No pride, no dignity, no sense of shame? To all the Future beckons us to win, Shull we renounce, before the world, our claim, And raze, amid its jeers, the fabric of our fame? An Authentic Account of the Evacna tion of Port TlotiUrie. THE NIGHT OF DECEMBER 26, 1860. How and Why Major Anderson Moved his Troops —The Row across the Harbor—The Federal Guns and the Charleston Steamboats. [From the New York World.] We give below the first genuine and authentic account w hich has passed through the Southern mails of Major Anderson’s removal from Fort Moultrie to Fort Sumter. Our correspondent, who has had every advantage that a participation iu that gallant manieuvre or a residence within the walls of both forts, or military knowledge could give him, recites the preparations which were being made by the Charlestonian* to i.em in tbo brave An derson and his troops ; his fruitless efforts to induce the War Department to allow him to provide for their defence; the reasons which compelled him to a hasty evacuation of Fort Moulttie; the provisions made by the Charlesto nians to prevent the removal to Fort Sumter, and with what shrewdness and ability they were foiled; how the troops, baggage and provisions were transferred; the row across tbe harbor in a clear moonlight, within a hundred yards of the Charleston steamboat; and a history of the strong hold of Sumter. THE EVACUATION. Major Anderson has done the best possible thing for his small command and the country at large. It was unauthorized, it is true, but it was indispensable. To defend himself on the bar and extensive ramparts of Fort Moultrie for more than three or four days would have been impossible.— If not from any actual loss of men, he must have succombed from fatigue and loss of sleep, for it would have been impossible to spare a man from his post. The South Carolinians were making preparations to erect three batteries against him, to surround him with rifle pits and open trenches. They only awaited the signal from their Commis sioners to begiu. Their engineer officers came down every day to examine and lay out their plans of attack. Cannon had actually been sent to the Island. In a few days the Major would have been surrounded with a perfect net work, and his hands were still tied behind his back. — The Government would not even give him per mission to level tbe immense sandhills which over looked his works. They would not send him the ammunition he needed, nor would they allow him necessary mortars and shells to dislodge the clouds of rifiemen who would pick off his cannon ers. He and his command had, nevertheless, deter mined to fight it to the last and blow up every thing. The only possible safety waa that of burn ing down Moultrieville, (for they were so hemmed in that they could not see a hundred yards,) and in taking down the crests of the highest sandhills. It was all in vain ; his hands were tied, and when it became apparent that the heavy batteries of Fort Sumter were, in addition, to plunge their fire iuto the work, and enfilade one and take in re verse two of his lines, the case resolved itself into a massacre, and not into a seige or assault. Fort Moultrie itself (is but a mere dependency of Fort Sumter. The battle which(tbe Major was about to fight would be, in every sense, a useless one, so long as the enemy held Fort Sumter. Victory would not have given him command of the har bor. By moving to Fort Sumter he gained safety for the meD, a free and untrammelled position, commanding the harbor—a position from which he might prevent the erection of efficient batte ries against ships, from which be cam drive out an enemy from Fort Moultrie—a position which a few days’ work will render impregnable to all but treachery. The Government, instead of acting under per petual menace and threats, can now act, if it chooses, with dignity and firmness, for Charleston is at the feet of Anderson, whenever he chooses to exercise his power. Not a vessel can come iu or out without his permission. He can collect the revenue with ease, the lights can be put out by his guns, and all this has occurred without bloodshed. No blood need be shed unless South Carolina madly flings herself against him in a fu rious effort to retrieve her broken fortunes. She feels and knows she is in the power of the United States Government. Sensible they were driving Anderson to extremity, and fearful he might make an attempt of the kind, they had stationed two steamboats having 120 men with two pieces of artillery under command of Lieutenant Hamil ton, recently resigned from the navy. They had stationed these between Fort Sumter and Fort Moultrie, to cruise around and prevent any at tempt to transfer the garrison, but Anderson foiled them. He carried out his project with con summate ability. He talked for a week of the absolute necessity of sending the women and chil dren to the village of Fort Johnson for safety.— There is an old dilapidated public building there in which he proposed to put them until the battle was over. He chartered three lighters to carry them and their baggage, and he added everything to the cargo he could without exciting suspicion. That Charlestonians did not wish to interfere with the transit of provisions to Captain Foster’s men at Fort Sumter, because they regarded him as in reality finishing the work lor them. This he was actually doing through the neglect of the Administration. Under pretense of sending him provisions, Major Anderson sent over a large amount of his stores. Thus disembarrassed he was ready lor a move. The schooners, with the camp women and children had orders to sail from Fort Johnson to Fort Sumter upon hearing two cannon fired at Fort Moultrie, the signal that the evacuation of the Fort had been completed. He then gave orders to the men to pack their knap sacks, and hold themselves in readiness at all times, as they might, some day, Lave to move.— He took one of his officers aside about 6 P. M., on the 26th and told him in about twenty minutes he should make the attempt to reach Fort Sumter. The attempt was a dangerous one. Two steam boats lay off the fort with troopa and guns, and these boats would have run him down in a mo meat had thaj bm W*H<s $f &*< Major Anderson left orders to fire into the Nina steamboat, if she molested his men, and a 32- pouuder was loaded up for that purpose. Fort Moultrie is always surrounded by paid spies and members of the vigilance committee, but they did not interfere, and probably did not understand what the command was doing. The troops sprang into the boats and the men pulled with a will.— Half way the hostile steamboat approached rapid ly with a ship in tow. It was a glorious moonlight night, and very clear. The steamboat passed within a hundred yards, but probably took the boats to contain workmen returning from Fort Sumter. Sumter was reached at last in safety. An exclamation of surprise came from the brick layers on the wharf. One of them shouted, “Hur rah for the UnioD.” He was hurried in and made to keep quiet. In the meantime the officer who remained in Fort Moultrie held the lanyards of the guns in their hands ready to fire upon the steam boat, if it molested the boats. The boats were sent back. The remainder of the command em barked and reached Sumter in safety, though one boat passed almost under tbe bow of the Nina.— The movement was accomplished, and Charleston was at the feet of the gallant Major. The chagrin of tbe people in the city was intense. They had counted on this stronghold as their own, and the tables had been completely turned on them.— With the exception of coal and firewood, I be 4 lieve everything of importance was brought over. Letter from Vice President Breeken ridge. lion. John C. Breckenridge has written a letter to Governor Magoffin, of Kentucky, in which, while favoring the compromise propositions of Mr. Crittenden, he expresses himself as utterly hopeless of their being adopted. He concludes as follows: The immediate question now presented is, peace or war. Whether the right of a State or States to dissolve connection with the Federal system be a reserved right or one growing out of the Con stitution, or the right of revolution, the great fact lies before us that the act has been done ; and we I are not permitted to doubt that in a few weeks seven or eight States, containing a larger popula tion than the thirteen Colonies at the epoch of the Revolution, will have withdrawn from the Union and declared their independence. Under whatev er name disguised, a collision of arms with them will be war. The dominant party here, rejecting everything, proposing nothing, are pursuing a policy, which, under the name of “enforcing the laws,” and “punishing traitors,” threatens to plunge the coun try into all the calamities of civil war. The Federal Union cannot be preserved by arms. The attempt would unite the Southern states in resistance, while iu the North a great multitude of true and loyal meu never would consent to shed 1 the blood of our people, in the name and under the authority of a violated compact. A serious collision upon existing issues, would destroy what ever hope may yet remain of preserving or restor ing the Union. An attempt to hold it together by the bayonet, would exceed anything yet record ed iu the annals of human madness and folly.— It would briug on a war of unexampled ferocity, in which every vital principle of the Union would disappear forever. If the South should succeed in maintaining her independence, tbe feuds and ani mosities engendered by the contest between the sections, would be transmitted to succeeding gen 4 erations; while, if she should be subjugated, the (ravrruiuant would become in form and in fact consolidated, and would soon reach the historical termination iu a military despotism. But her sub jugation is impossible without extermination ; and that is impossible. And yet the danger of civil war is imminent, unless it shall be arrested by prompt and energet ic action. If, before the passions of men become aroused, and a series of untoward events drift us iuto strife, Kentucky and the other border States shall calmly and firmly present a united front against it, 1 believe it may be arrested.— fifteen States are potent to prevent war. This, too, would strengthen all the true men in the Northern States who resist the atrocious policy. L pon this question let us annihilate party. Ihe force party believe that Kentucky and other South ern States are seriously divided on this subject.— Unless this can be quickly shown to be a delusion, it may become the parent of a brood of woes. The wisdom of the Legislature will doubtless provide whatever is needful; yet, at a time like this, it becomes the duty, as it is the right, of every man to express his opiuions; and, as one citizen of the Commonwealth, I give my voice for a State Convention. It is only by the direct ac tion of the several States, in their sovereign ca pacity, that anything effectual can now be done ; and, for one, I desire that Kentucky may have an opportunity to determine, iu the most solemn man ner, her judgment of her rights, and her attitude in the present condition of affairs. She has not been an inactive nor inglorious member of the Confederacy ; she is in the presence of great and startling events, and it is not her nature to sit iu listless sympathy, borne along by rapid currents, without the power to direct her course. Let her have the opportunity, through her chosen repre sentatives, of deciding upon the prospect of reun iting all tbe States in a constitutional Union, or, if that shall be impossible, let her be in a position to determine her own destiny. This letter has grown longer than I intended, although I have adhered pretty closely to my or iginal purpose, rather to present facts, and my impressions of them, from this stand-point, than to enter upon elaborate discussion. I need not say to you, my dear sir, that I have uttered nothing in an obtrusive spirit, but rather, reluc tantly and sorrowfully. My suggestions in regard to the action of Kentucky, are offered in a spirit of loyalty to the State I love and will ever obey. They are clearly right or very wrong. If right, the pleasure will be mine to have said a timely word ; if wrong, I will know how to bear, without a murmur, all the consequences of an honest but terrible mistake. JOHN C. BRECKENRIDGE. Hon. B. Magoffin, Governor of Kentucky. The Jews and the Crista. The Jewish Messenger, of December 28, makes a strong editorial appeal to the Jews in the United States to observe tbe 4th proximo as a day of prayer for the preservation of the Union. The following paragraph will afford the reader a good idea of the whole : As Israelites, we have still weightier induce ments to join with our fellow-citizens in observing this day of prayer. The Union, for whose pfos*- perity we ask Divine aid, has been the source of happiness for our ancestors and ourselves. Under the protection of the freedom guarantied us by tbe Constitution, we have lived in the enjoyment of full and perfect equality with our fellow-citi zens ; we are enabled to worship the Supreme according to the dictates of conscience; wc can maiutain the position to which our abilities entitle us, without our religious opinions being an imped iment to advancement. This republic was the first to recognize our claims to absolute equality with men of whatever religious denomination.— Here we can sit, “each under his vine and fig tree, with uoue to make him afraid.” The perpetuity of the national existence of this republic beiug imperilled, let us, then, right heartily, join with our fellow-citizens in observing Friday next as a day of prayer and humiliation. Let us assemble in our respective synagogues, and pour forth in unison our beartfealt supplications, that the Al mighty may restore harmony and good will among all tbe people of this land, and so govern the in tellects of those in authority that they may be in spired with wisdom to secure a pacific settlement of whatever difficulties may exist in any section of the country. What thet say of us Abroad. —The Argus, a paper published in the city of Drogheda, Ireland, coolly tells its readers that “the election by the Northern States of America of a black man as President has at length brought about a state of feeling between the Southern and Northern States which for a long time has been feared and which threatens to eud in the disruption of the Ameri can Union. Since tbe Confederation was formed no Presidential election has excited so much party feeling as has the election of Abraham Lincoln, a black gentleman , hitherto unknown out of the State in which he lived—or at least unknown as a public man in Europe.” A petition four hundred and fifty-six feet long has been sent from Philadelphia to the Pennsyl vania Legislature, praying for a repeal of those provisions of ths penal cod% hostile to FogiUft VOLUME XXXVIII-NO. U. The Resignation of Secretary Thoinu*on> The Intelligencer of this morning has the lollop ing correspondence: Washington, Jan. 8. 1861. Sir:—lt is with extreme regret that I uaven *t learned that additional troops hate been ordered to Charleston. This subject has been frenuenilf discussed in Cabinet Council; and when on Mon day night, Slst of December ult., the order nr reinforcements to Fort Sumter wa9 countermanded, I distinctly understood from you that no order of the kind would be made without being previously considered and decided in Cabinet. It i9 true tr.afi on Wednesday, January 2d, the subject was avals discussed in Cabinet, but certainly no conclusion was reached, and the War Department was not justified in ordering reinforcements without some thing more thau was then said. I learn, uowever. this morning, for the first time, that the steamer. Star of the West, sailed from New Tor*, oft Saturday night, with two hundred and fhtv men. under Lieut. Bartlett, bound for Fort Sumter.— Under these circumstances I feel myself Dounrt to resign my commission, as one of your conatiw tional advisers, into your hands. With high respect, your obedient servant. J. Tooairaojf. llie Excellency, James Buchanan, President of the United auiae. Washington, Jan. 9, 1861. Sir:—l hare received and accepted your resig nation, on yesterday, of the office of Secretary ot the Interior. On Monday evening, Slst December, 1880. I suspended the orders which had been ?•* hv the War and Navy Departments to send the Brookiva with reinforcements to Fort Sumter. Os this I informed you on the same evening. I stated to you my reasons for this suspension, wlueh vou knew, from its nature, would be speedily removed, I promised that these orders should not be renewed “without being previously considered and decided in Cabinet.” This promise was faithfully ooserved on my part. In order to carry it into effect 1 called a special Cabinet meeting on Weunesoav. 2d January, 1860, in which the question oi send ing reinforcements to Fort Sumter was amrny discussed both by yourself and others. The d< i ded majority of opinions was against you. At tn. 4 moment the answer of the South Carolina “ Com missioners” to my communication to them ol Kit December was received and read. It produce! much indignatiou among the members ol tn- Cabinet. After a further brief conversation i employed tbe following language : “It is uow ml over, aDd reinforcements must be sent.” auue-n Black said, at the moment of mv decision. tna& after this letter the Cabinet would be unanimous. | and I heard no dissenting voice. Indeed, tint spirit and tone of the letter left no doubt on tnv ! mind that Fort Sumter would be’ immediately attacked, and hence the necessity of seudtne rein forcements there without delay. Whilst you admit “that on Wednesday, January 2d, this subject was again discussed in Cabinet.’’ you say, “but certainly no conclusion was reacned. and the War Department was not justified in order ing reinforcements without Something more vuau was then said.” You are certainly mislaKeu in alleging that “no conclusion was reached.” In this your recollection isen*irely different from tnat of your four oldest colleagues in tbe Caoinet.— Indeed my language was so unmistakable tnat the Secretaries of War and the Navy proceeded to act upon it without any further intercourse witn myself than what you heard, or might have neard me say. You had been so emphatic in opposing these reinforcements that I thought you would resign in consequence of my decision. 1 deeniv regret that you have been mistaken in point ot fact, though I firmly believe honestly misia*eu.— Still it is certain you have not the less been mista ken.

The Right Spirit—w orthy ot Imitation. In view of the present condition of the countrv, and supposing that, if tbe $1,000,000 of Georela Bonds, issued for the defence of the State, be aent out of the State, they might not probablv sell readily at par, we learn that a few davs since, xv. R. Cuyler, Esq , President of the Central Railroad and Banking Company voluntarily proposed to tne Governor to take for that Company SIOO,OOO ot these State Bonds, at par. This shows tbe right spirit, and is highly creditable to Mr. Cuyler and tbe Company over whose business and operations he presides with such marked ability ana accep tability to all concerned. The Bank capital now in use in this State, we discover by the last Comptroller General’s Report, is over $9,000,000. If each Bank will only follow the example of President Cuyler, and invest ten per cent, of their capital in the same kind of bonds, should it become necessary, which we hope will not be the case, $1,000,000 authorized to be is sued by the legislature, can be taken by tbe banks alone. We perceive that the South Carolina Banks have $400,000 of their own State Bonds, issued for a similar purpose, in proportion to the Capitol Stock of each Bank. —Southern Recorder. A Difficult Question Answered.—Can any one tell why, when Eve was manufactured from one of Adam’s ribs, a hired girl was not made at the same time to wait on her? We can gay! Because Adam never came whining to Eve with a ragged stocking to be darned, a collar string to be sewed on, or a glove to mend, “right away, quick now 1” Because he never read the newspaper uutil the sun got down behind the palm trees, and ‘ then stretching himself, yawned out “ Ain’t supper most ready, my dear?” Not he! he made the fire, and hung the tea kettle over it himself, we’ll venture, and pulled the radishes, peeled the banan as, and did everything else he ought to do. He milked the cows, fed the chickens, and looked after the pigs himself. He never brought halt a dozen fricuds to dinner, when Eve hadn’t any fresh pomgranites, and the mango season was over! He never stayed out till eleven o’clock to a “ward meeting” hurrahing for an out and out candidate, and scolded because poor Eve was sitting uu and crying inside the gates. He never played billiards, and drove fast horses, nor choked Eve with cigar smoke. He never loafed around corner groceries, while solitary Eve was rocking little Cain’s cradle at home. In short he didn’t think she was espe cially created for the purpose of waiting on him, and wasn’t under the impression that it disgraced a man to lighten his wife’s cares a little. That's tbe reason that Eve did not need a hired girl, and we wish it was the reason that none of her fair descendants did. —Life Illustrated. Gen.
