SUMTER TO BE SUPPLIED.
We have stopped the press TO announce
that we have Just received intelligence
by telegraph that the Administration has
determined to send supplies 10 Fort Sam
ter at all haz ards; and also that Fort
Pickens is to be reinforced. A collision
is expected every day and great prepara'
lions are being made by both parties
Gov. Dennison has pledged the support
of Ohio to the Administration, a, re-
turned home in haste to prepare for the
ful6lment of the pledge. s9-s e 'ta7
It is predicted BY Washington cores
pondent. that we will have warm in' 8
in a few days, Whether this is any more
reliable than their reports for the last
month, time will determine. 81
Result of the "a Recent Elections The
4 {F-,tsszE Il - CRusesl ss1Ei 20 eaa
The spring elections in the Eastern
and Western States have, generally, re-
suited disastrously to the Republicans
Several reasons, might! bs assigned for
this result, but. in our opinion, the prin-
cipal one may be found sin the failure,
thus far, of the present administration
to inaugurate the policy foreshadowed in
the, Presidents inaugural The people
are becoming mpa,ient-thcy desire to
see the laws executed and the world
given to understand that we have a
government, or that the independence
of the Southern Confederaoy shall be
acknowledged and the country relieved
from the sickening state of suspense in
which they have been lingering for 50
long. The people had already become
disgusted with the do-nothing, ,imid,
temporising policy Of Mr.. Buchanan, and
they anxiously and confidently looked
for something bold and definite from his
successor ere this. There is too much
inpatience, too much activity. in th e
American mind, to endure a state of sus
pense any length Of tine; hence, we
sag, many became dissatisfied, and, up
on the spur of the moment, were in
duced by their feelings to vote against
their own party friends. 80 a@" Il
This, probably, will not occur again,
for the indications are that Mr.. Lincoln
is about to adopt vigorous policy that
will entirely satisfy the public mind and
regain the confidence Of the people which
has been shown by the recent elections
to have been somewhat impaired. s
Another cause may be found in the
fact that in some Of our large towns and
cities very unfortunate appointments
have been made. The will of the peo
! pie has been entirely disregarded by
having the especial friends of corrupt
and designing politicians appointed to the
various positions over the heads Of wor-
thy men who were the choice Of those
people. The appointments at Cleveland
for instance, were SO obnoxious to the
people that no party could possibly
stand up under them. s''' 27 i7iaaa
All these things taken together, -op~
Grated seriously againstus and had much
to do with bringing about the defeats to
which we have alluded. AS We are one
of those who like to look the facts square
in the face, and not dissemble or dodge
Tor the purpose of deceiving ourseN. or
our friends, we have spoken thus PLAN
lily and freely upon the subject, in order
that our people may guard agsinst a re
currenes of these unfortunate results.
