been made on account of the recent sale Of
S., COO, 900 of Treasury Notes, and were only

DEPARTURE OF MRS. ANDERSON FOR CHARLES
TON.
Mrs Anderson, who is daughter OF Gen.
Clincb, has quietly started for Charleston, at
tended by servant. The chivalry may inter-
pose difficulties TO her joining her husband, as
they exercised surveillance his brothers re-
cent visit 1t is believed that all his letters are
opened and read by the Revolutionary Commit
tee, before being delivered.
THE ACTION OF MAJOR ANDERSON.
When Moior Andersons official correspondence
shall be published, his conduct in moving from
Fort Moutrie to Sumter will be fully indicated
n every re. pect as being required by the safety
of his command, and the certainty that the lat
ter would have been seized by the South Caro-
lima organization, had he not promptly aban-
doned his first position. Several of the volunteer
officers in charge of Fort Moultre, visited Major
Anderson at Fort Sumter after that event, and
told him frankly he had acted like brave and
true man, and performed his duty as o soldier.
THE SEIZURE OF FORTS AND ARsENALs.
The seizure of the Forts and Arsenals in
Georgia and Alabama, is only part of the pro-
gramme long since blocked out here, and with
the conniyance Of spies and traitors in the
Cabinet. Secretary Floyd ungarrisoned them
purposely to MD the conspiracy, and the Dis
union Governors were fully apprized of their
intended condition. The plan to make
simultaneous movement through the South, but
that has failed. Every one of these forts will
bo retaken in thirty days after the 4th of March,
if there be power enough in the Government or
people to protect the public property and execute
the laws. And so far as the revenue is con-
cerned, il will either be- collected, or the ports
refusing will be blockaded. The time for trfing
has passed. and the traitors who are stimulating
disunion may as well know ii now a. hereafter.
THE PRESIDENTS NEW POLICY
The President remains firm in carrying out
the new and vigorous policy which has been
adopted. He said recently in reply to the sug.
gestion of appreheDded difficulty in inaugurating
Mr. Lincoln, If live till the 4th of March, |
will ride to the Capitol with Old Abe, whether
a. am assassinated or not"
The reinforcement of marines sent to Fort
Washington, on the Potomac, only veri6es the
statement in my recent dispatch, that troops were
Ia be concentrated in this vicinity as a precau-
tionary measure for the protection Of the public
property here.
THE PACIFIC RAILROAD.
If a rally be made on the Pacific Railroad bill,
as il came from the House, by all the protested
friends of that measure, it may be still saved.
TO amend aud return it, is to leopard its sue
cess.
THE CHARLESTON COLLECTOR.
The Senate yesterday refused again b" 90 into
Executive st-r-ion on Mr., Mn!Etyres nomination
as Collector Of Charleston, or to await the open
inc Of the Presidents Message, which was lying
on the table. The Secessonists mean 10 resist
the nomination by every Parliamentary exPe-
dent.
