INSULTED-The Charleston Mercury says
that the citizens Of that city are cons'deraoAy
excited in consequence Of the U. 8. troops NJ
Fort Sumter refusing to let gentleman and h's
family land at the Fort on pleasure visit. When
the boat containing the gentleman and his family
neared the Fort, sentinel presented his muskes
and refused them landing. The corporal OF the
gu ard for and requested to allow the par
~ to land; but he refused. without giving rea-
son. The Mercury asks if it is not time to exPel
these men lmeaning U. S. sof6iers1 from the
limits of the city.
The following is what correspondent Of the
Mercury says about the matter:
Occupation of Fort S,rnuer-Iasolence Of
Federal Olinions.
AIessrs. Editors: Fort Sumter has
been occupied. furtively, unexpectedly.
and without warrant Of authority, save
from usurping Northern President and
the subservient tools of his Cabinet. The
object of this movement Of Federal troops
is aoparent and unmistak cable. Intimida-
ton nf the wavering. encouragement to
Union loving Submissionists, and prepare.
ton to meet the question ot secession, and
defy its exercise. 1t is a challenge to the
State to come up to that issue and meet
the Government upon it. Shall the chal-
lence te accepted now? There is but one
way Of giving the answer-through the
Legislature, which should be instantly
| assembled. In the meantime what should
the citizens Of Charleston do?. Already
are her citizens denied admission to the
Fort. and all reason for the peremptory
prohibition contemptuously refused, amid
the ieers Of liveried slaves. obedient to the
will Of fotiiciai masters. The people should
assemble at once-put on their arms
guard their City against the ingress of
these myrmi.iens and incendiaries. AMI
confine the pestlence Of their presence
within the walIs Of the Forts. There il
but one circumstance to temper the anger
of true Southerner-it is that SO few oe
these men are Northerners. The soldiers
of the Government are anything else thar
Yankees, and their deeds illustrate tn'
courage Of every land save Yankeedom
Yet are they the instruments of our dead
w fOe-the (;nvernment-and as suct
instruments, must be placed under the bar
of public execration.
n Since the above was in type, the commanding
officer of the Fort, S. C. Ridgely. has appeare
h in the Mercury explaining the matter. He say
e the sentinel on duty at the time was new re
e cruit, and did not understand his instructions.
We have devoted more space to the above sui
j ject than we lad intended, for it is a matter
small importance.
