We would be glad tp com ment on some points, but have neither time k In fact, eventB follow each other so jt Is next to impossible now to yen the news of the day. pE.—Georgia, which takes the t enterprise, has entered in st shown her disposition to do work of direct importations of f commerce as are of prime con- ion among her people. We copy else- (the met of the last Legislature incorpora te Belgian American Steamship Com pany, which proposes to ran semi-monthly steamships between Savannah and some Euro pean port or ports, the State guarantying to the Company a net profit of $100,000,on their invest ment of $2,000,000, for the term of five years. We commend the charter and the great work which it is intended to promote, to the capi talists and business men of the south generally. At a future day, when wc 6hall have more room nnd leisure to do justice to the subjects we propose to discuss it in its practicability and bearing upon the economy of the Slate Georgia and of the south generally.

As a case in point, we have before us the N jw York Tribune of the 7th instant, containing a long telegraphic despatch, dated the 5tb, which the editors Inform us was sent from Savannah to their correspondent at Washington and by him forwal.'jcd to that paper. We have only this to say with regard to it: The statements of the despatch ore untrue, and we are authoriz ed to say that such a communication was never telegraphed from this city. The Affair of the Star of the “ Star of tiie West.”—We copy elsewhere, from the Charleston Courier of yesterday, a full account of the attempt of the “Star of the West” to enter the harbor of Charleston, with reinforce ments for Major Anderson, and her repulsion by the forts on Sullivan’s and Morris’s Islands. It appears that seventeen shots were fired at the steamer, only two of which took effect—one in the bow and the other in the neighborhood of the wheel-house—so far as could be judged at the distance. The affair s.eems to have had an elecirifylng effect upon our South Carolina friends, who immediately redoubled their ex ertions for a successful defence of the harbor. Some.time alter the occurrence, Major Ander* son despatched a messenger, with a flag ol truce, to Gov. Pickens, protesting against the attack on the steamer, and staling that if the act should be avowed by the State authorities, he should forthwith intercept all vessels that might pass Fort Sumter. The Governor avow ■flfed the act of the forts Ln. firing upon the ves- Hcl, and went at length into a review of the re- ^Rations now subsisting between South Carolina mm and the United States, as a justification of their [ coarae. To this Major Anderson, through a ■ second messenger, replied, that he should re port the case to the government, an I po&tpoi c all further action in the premises until inform- d iti doi lzinn. - Wii-regret, ♦hat we have noL that, ip all elections for directors. ,no room for the correspondence m our country '*7*’ 7*—7T* T *— ‘ - ihnn nno linrwlrnn vr.-xtdte • oi lint nn i edition.

The Courier of yesterday says, Sidney Weeks, a member of the Edgefield Company, now iu that city, fell through the opening above the en trance to the Arsenal, head foremost, to the ground, producing concussion of the brain, from which the worst results are apprehended. A voluuteer. by the name of Gray, belonging to the same company, was wounded in the leg, on Weduesday, by a ball irora a pistol that went off accidentally in the hands of a brother sol dier. The wound, though painful, was not considered a serious one. — V statement of the New York city banks shows a decrease of $1,$90,793 in loans, an increase of SI,564,417 in specie, $410,701 in circulation, and a deerrase in deposits of $711,164.

Lincoln’s Views on Secession.—A corres pondent of the St. Loui9 Republican, writing from Springfield, Illinois, says : I have it yet from an eutirely reliable source, that the President elect thinks that no Slate should be forced to remain in the Union, and that he will only use coercion if required to do so by special __^ nqfc .QfCongresB. THE ARRIVAL AND DErAKTCRE OF THE STAR OF THE WEST. THE VB SEE FIRED INTO! FULL PARTICULARS! [From the Charleston Courier of jestcrd&v.] which, with, one or two more discharges, final- ! ly ce^od. • * THE DAMAGE DONE j The steamer was very trifling, only two ol ! seize ns of ft. Morgan and mt. verson arse about seventeen shots—all that was fired—took | effect upon her. One struck the vessel about, the forward part of the bow, the other amid ships, In the vicinity of the wheel-house No idea of the extent of dnmage done could be as certained, indeed it could not have been known whether she had been struck at all had it not been for the heavy, dull sound, and subsequent crash, nhvais accompanying the ball that “makes its mark ” in a naval engagement. At alJ events she could not have been badly injnred or disabled, for even while the firing continued she rounded to and. started off seaward. As soon as this intention was shown all firing was isntnntly suspended. FORT SUMTER. While the engagement lasted, no demonstra tion whatever was made by the command in possession of the frowning fortress—Sumter— except the opening of the port-holes nnd run ning out of the guns which bear upon Morris’ Island and Moultrie. Major Anderson, how ever, prudently forbore to fire, and no doubt experienced greqt relief when he saw the vessel steaming out of the harbor. THE CITT. After all the facts of the affair in the harbor had become generally known throughout the city, the excitement in ho wise abated. Several companies of troops never before in actual ser vice were called oat and sent to different local ities, where their presence might be needed, and every precaution was taken by the energetic '‘'’•'’‘"istration to secure all points that might —w From the most nesses of the affair, our readers the foil About six and a . tha steamer Gen'll discovered the West ” signalled the battery Intel; Morris* Islaud. her wharf someti with a guard of cig! the Paltn'etto Guards The duty assigned surveillance over the signals os had been a„i the approach of rcinforcei in possession of the United well as to report the approach that may appear in the offing, grey of the morning, the guard boat cried the steamer heading in from 1 and with as much celerity aa possible, the remaining part of the task assigned her. As soon as signalled, the entire camp on'Mor- ris’ Island was astir. There was no need for the reveille beat to quarters. The men were al ready at their posts before the orders were given. For some minutes they remained in anxious saspense, ready for what every one be lieved sure to come, and that—a volley from the heavy guns of Sumter. As soon as the Star of the West rounded the point, she took to what is called “Ship Chan nel,” inside the bar, and proceeded straight forward, until nearly opposite the work on Morris’ Island, not more than three quarters of a mile from the battery, and within excellent range of the guns. At this position of affairs ommand was given to fire, and a ball was bizzing athwart the bows of the jificant hint to proceed no further in no other manner by the vessel laying a large flag of the Federal soon as the Stars and Stripes were masthead, the act of defiance was tccess-ion of heavy shots from the The vessel continued on her way, sed speed, but one or two shois effect, she concluded to advance no r, and this conclusion was hastened by tots from Moultrie, which, though liarm- fess and out of range of the steamer, still gave 'evidence that hotter work was on hand if further 2‘tempt was made to proceed. The “8tar of the West” was clearly made out us the name of the vessel, so that there was no mistake on this point. She was possessed of no armament. As soon as five or six shots had been fired upon her from Morris’ Island, and as many more from Moultrie, it was evident that she would lower her colors to half-mast.

These events will create a lively sensation throughout the country, and we should, even by this time, be in receipt of whatever edict a prompt exercise of Executive authority may fulminate in relation to the high act of sovereignty of the Governor of this State. Without attempting to foreshadow the position which the Federal Government may assume, we record the belief that it will be appalled into utter inaction and incertitude by the magnitude of the concerted character of this ignoring of its empire iu the cotton Slates, for at the same time that it is advised of the seizure of its strongholds in Alabama, i; will have news of like import from Georgia, aud perhaps from other States. The strong array of armed hostility to the policy ot coercion thus presented will,we may venture to hope, deter its attempt, and reduce the quarrel to the treatings of diplomacy aud a peaceable adjustment of matters ‘ between the Federal Government as it at present exists, *and the States which throw off its authority. The worst has been dared and is looked squarely in the face ; the alternative is to be desired, and hoped, and may be, we think, with reason.

Washington, Jan. 9th.—The President sent in his message on the crisis to Congress this morning. He regrets that matters, instead of becoming better, have grown worse, and the hopes of a peaceful adjustment are diminished. In alluding to the condition of South Carolina, he says there will be no other alternative but to collect the revenue and protect the Federal property, 60 for as it is practicabJw**«rtio under the existing laws, which he feels bound by his oath to execute. At the commencement of the session,'in his annual message, he called the attention of Congress to the dan gers that beset the Union, and recommeuded such m asures as he believed would have the effect of tran- qilizing the country and saving it from the perils in which it was needlessly and unfortunately placed. It was nut necessary to repeat this opinion and recom mendation ; the convictions then expressed remain un changed. The right and duty to »se the mi’itary and naval forces against those who illegally assail the Fedora] Government he regards as flear and indisputable; bat the present state of affairs fs beyond Executive control. We are in the midst of a great revolution, and he would recommend Congress to meet the present emer gency. He reviews the power to declare war and to remove the grievances that might lead to war, and re store peace to the country—on ihem rests the respon sibility. • Alter eulogizing the blessings conferred by the Union, >.in mind that the classifl- , is are intended to apply is Liverpool.

The amount rea.ized from the sales is $66,000. The muskets are almost worthless, and had been previously condemned by the ordnance officers. l Troops for Fort Sumter-A Mistake Somewhere. Washington, Jan. 9.—There seems to be a mistake or misapprehension somewhere in relation to the des patch of rein orcements for Fort Snmtcr. It is denied by gentlemen verv intimately related to the Adminis tration that the recruits were ordered without a previ. ous sanction of the President; and It is further stated that the subject was discussed folly in a Cabinet meet ing, and that the acting Secretary of War, as well as some other members of the Cabinet, clearly under stood that it was the wish of the President that the troops should be sent, and at onoe. Wliy tlie Brooklyn Goon to Charleston. Washington, Jan. 9.—The object of the departure of the Brooklyn for Charleston is supposed to be to re lieve the Star of the West, iu case the South Carolina authorities should oppose her ingress into the harbor, and to bring back her provisions ‘to Norfolk.
