Louisiana forts, recently planted battery
ut VicksbuTg, with orders to search all boats
from tho North bound South. Tho expo
rienco of tho A. o, Tylor as stated by Capt,
Collier, illustrates tho pira,ical nature Of
this proceeding. He says:
Wo arrived at Vicksburg after night, 1t
being very dark aud raining. When we
got within 500 yards of tho wharf boat, a
cannon was fred across our bow. and not
knowing what it meant, wo went on and
landed az the whari-boat. BY the timo we
got landod there was u company of armed
soldiers ready to board and take charge of
the boat. Tho Captain OF tho company Rrst
came on board, and ascending to tho hurri.

MAY. ANDERSON SOUND TO TIE CORE.

MAJ ANDERSON SOUND TO TIE CORE.
Ii is matter Of great surprise here that
certain leading sheet in your City should
give circulation to the monstrouS rumors
concerning Maj. Anderson's intended sur
render of Sumter when Lincoln assumes
The Presidential reins. South Carolinans
are brave if they are so rash. and they
worship bravery in others. They know
and feel that the commander Of that is
land fort that sternly frowns on their city,
and who holds the lives Of this people in
his iron will, is perfectly iacorruPtibIe.-
His father was hero, and defended this
very city against the British. His mother
was of the same blood as Chief Justice
Marshal. Of Virginia, and he himself IS
allied by marriage to daughter OF the
gallant Clnch, of Georgia. His being
born in Slave State. and allied by mar
rage to one. has nothing to do with his
patriotism now or his fancied position
hereafter. An auther, soldier and
gentleman, Of strict religious sentiments,
Major Anderson is looked upon here as
sound 10 the core in his devotion 10 the
Union which they have cast out, and they
know he will defend himself If called upon.
even though he may hurl destruction on
Moullrie, Pinckney, and Charleston itself.
A letter from Fort Sum'er says:
THE ALMIGHTY HEARD OUR PRAYERS.
We have been wonderfully favored by
Providence in all our movements. we
abandoned Moultrie under cover OF night,
by aid OF vessel chartered 10 take the
soldiers wives, twenty five in number, 10
a safe place. When the captain discov
cred the intention of Major Anders IN, he
became rebellous, but was soon sent below
and locked up until We were safely landed
at Sumter. Our nights work was crowned
| by glorious sunrise. The men we're all
summoned around the flag. staff, and the
stars and stripes were run up, and the
Chaplain invoked Gods blessing to rest
upon our little band, and 10 aid us in the
work of our country's defence, and in de-
fending the national honor and nag.
shall never forget the scene. Ii we had
been assailed on that day by any consid-
erable force, il Is doubtful i we could
have held out, as the fort was in miser-
able condition ior defence. But the Al
mighty heard our prayers. A storm
came up and lasted ten days, 1t was SC
terrific that the sea. tired of knocking at
our flinty walls, would dash far above and
over us. During these len days no YES
selcouId approach US. epuh our house
in good erder, so that at the end OF th'
storm we could have defed any power on
earth. -...
