CHARLOTTE, daughter of W. W. and Jana
Easeabrooks, aged 10 years.
The faireSt flowers we fondly love,
How soon the55 beauty dies
But purcr they will bloom above,
In bowers of paradise"
Death entered that happy band of brothers an
tiers, and chose one as his victim. Sweety she oR'
the summons bidding an affectionate goodbye o.
and telling them she was s. Ing home, she passed g.
away.
Yes, COP hath taken that loved one from earth
transplanted her in purer cline in bowers OF la'S
Now as the family circle gather together, ihs W
chair the heaving sigh and the falling tear all TIL I
d" one is not
Oh mourning ones, cease thy tears! Know !s ",
angel form is lingering near and though you n''
er enjoy the society of that loved one again on "7
you may feel her spirit presence gently wooins ,!
the path of holiness, and when the great WORK y
done, and the hour of departure is near you nj! y
behold her beckoning you away to Join the ST'' -
circle in the mansions of the blest.
/" In that bright happy land Sfar,
Wen find the loved, the lost
And nought our happiness can maj
Wnen life's rough sea is crossed.

THE COMMISSIONERS appointed by the Vir.
ginia Convention to wait npon the President
and ascertain from him personally the policy
which the Administ: alton intend to pursue
toward the Confederate States, called upon
him on Saturday and executed the duty i'm
posed upon him. The President in his answer
which he communicated to them in writing
simply reaffirms the language of his Inaugural
Address-that he will "ho!d occupy and pos
sess" the public property in the Southern Sta
tcs. In explanation, he further stated that
this language was intended to apply to the
period of his Inauguration, but as the authori-
ties at Charleston had seen fit to make an uu-
provoked assault upon Fort Sumter, he now
felt himself at liberty to repossess himself Of
that fortress. He also intmated that perhaps
be might find it necessary to withdraw mail
facilities from those States which had claimed
to secede, although the fact of secession is not
and will not be acknowledged.

bag 1t is repo ted from Pensacola that For

bay 1t is repo:ted from Pensacola that Fort
Pickens has been reinforced, and another re-
port says that 400 men have been introduced.
This news comes through secession sources,
and cannot be entirely relied on, but it is
probable. Though this number of men will
not make up full war garrison for the fort,
it will at least enable the defense to make q
more formidable resistance than was made
by the handful Of men in Sumter

PROBABLE ATTEMPT TO SEIZE WASHINGTON
The Administration has satifactory information
that the Confederate States have proposed
Immediately after reducing Fort Sumter, to
march on Washington with their army of
twenty thousand men, for which they will have
nothing else to do. Until recently, JEFFERSON
DAVIS was disposed to postpone that step IN,
till the secession Of Virginia and Maryland
was effected, but as he despairs of that now,
he believes that at the approach of his army
those States will Immediately unite their forces
he is n error

Ha- A private letter from a gentleman in
Manchester, England, received in New York,
says under date of March 9th What with
bad crops last summer in this country, disturb
ed political affairs in the United States, over
trading to India and China, etc, have never
seen commercial affairs in a worse condition
than they are in England at this time; there
is q complete stagnation both in home trade
and shipping; and where the 6rst relief is to
come from it is hard to determiDe-perhaps
from the United States, as it did IN the panic
of '57-'5S."
