IspEPEsDENr POSTAGE STAMPs.-seyeral speci-
mems of original postage stamps have been re-
celyed at the New York Post Office from the
Confederate States. The yare authorised neither
by the Confederate government, nor by any
separate State; but are the continuance either Of
local Postmasters, or (what is most probAble) OF
wagRish private individuals, who get up these
novel stamps to show their sovereign independ-
ence Of the United States. The latest sample
received at the Post Office, and the haudsomest
aud most pretentiOus OF them, is from Florida.-
II is about the size Of the United States stamp,
made of thick buif-colored paper, and bears a
border of stars, and the inscription 80 oenets"
very faulty printed in bronze. Whether tie
eccentric spelling Of tho word ''cenets' is in-
tended to illustrate the absolute Independence Of
the maker, or il an accidental mistake, we will
not undertake TO decide. 1t is singular fact,
however, that the country editor at whose office
this nent little job was done, INDUCED i'll long
exultation ever such specimen Of his typograph-
ical resources aad skill, without once aluding to
the "cene,s." This slnmp had passed through
the local Post Office, and receive It's ink mark,
thus showing that the Post Master there regard
ed it as "all right" 1t WAS passed through to
this city, hut it is almost unnecessary To say that
Post MISTER Taylor ill not recognize the stamp
aud that three cents were collected from the
person who received the letter. II would seem
therefore, that these stamps, though valueless ii
fact, are worth three cents apiece to persons
using them, with the consent (Which is ind.s
pensable) Of the local Post Masters, To thu
credit OF the South it must no said that the mp
psarance of these anomalous stamps in New
York is very rare, and that they are regarded IA
practical joke at The expense of the person I
whom the letter is addressed, rather than dc
liberate attempt to deiraud the u S. Govern
meut. The correspondence between the tw
sections of country continues as brisk as ever
except at few points, and the Confederate State
appear quite as well satisfied with the exlstin
mail arrangements as the United States are

WASHINGTON. April 6.-Lieutenant Talbot ar
rived here this morning, FROM Fort Sumter, with
dispatches to the Secretary Of War lie has
been oloseted with the President, the Secretary
and Gen. Scott for several hours.
IL appears that there is serious trouble nj Fort
Sumter, and that much Of the military and naval
movement now in rapid progress on the part OF
the government here is destined for that quarter
An officer Of the army stated to me this after
noon that the arst collision would 10 oil proba-
bility, occur in Charleston hafhor. Tho govern |
ment, he says having decided some days ago to
eyacnate Fort Sumter, were about to send oil
order detailing how 1t should lie done, hut uen-
eral BeauregArd. who Is in command, in con-
junction with Governor Pickens, refused to
accept their plan Of evacuation.
What the order or plan proposed by tho go
yernment here was is not fully known, but IT Is
understood that they wanted to leave a small
force to protect the property of the United states
This the Caroliniaus peremptorily refused TO
agree to. They demanded an unconstitutional
surrender.
These facts were laid before the President,
who at ouce decided that unless they accepted
the plan or order proposed by the government
/, the fort should not be evacuated thus compelling
K them to take it by force.
This, it is alleged is the secret of the seVera
