TIE pRnpnsrn AssAuLr.

There is no doubt of the TACT that RATS are
being constructed for the assault, and have
seen one of them in progress, though it is a
portion Of the secret work of the campaign
that cannot be too closely inquired into. They
will be constructed of palmetto logs, and cot
ton bales used as a protection for the assaulting
party while approaching the fort There is
no tagging on the part of the military in
view of the havoc of life that must be the
result of the assault and the anxiety from
day to day to commence operations is in
creasing The temporizing policy of the
Governor and his Council meets with much
harsh criticism by the inconsiderate, but it is
evident that even should the attack ultimately,
be made, so far as preparations are concerned,
South Carolina has obtained more by the
DELAY than Mai. Anderson.

WHAT CAN MAJOR ANDERSON DO ?

In all the conversations and speculations on
the subject Of tie attack of Sumter, hear
but few thoughts expressed as to the amount
of damage Major Anderson will be able to 10
on the military defences Of his assailants.
The impression is that he will take them Sc
Fiatin, commencing with Fort Moultrie, and
here Il sandbags are considered a match
for casemated granite. The question as to
whether he can silence the guns of MoUltrie
is never broached, though it is said he can
dismount all their guns in a few hours, and
then turn his attention to the weaker batteries
on Morris Island and Fort johnson. Should
he be able to thus silence all their heavT
guns, before any serious impression is made
on his walls, which be deems impreenable
what will become of the projected assault
and escslade2 The Governor and his Cabi-
net doubtless anxiously discuss these matter
of-fact eventualities, but the military think Of
nothing but success and victory.
The New Orleans Delta has the following
sketch of q sewing-machine spree:
A company Of volunteer soldiers, which
was Just being formed at Columbia, received
notice that their services were required at
Charleston Immediately. Their uniforms
had already been purchased, and we're in the
hands of the tailOfs, who had contracted to
deliver them at date just "a hours after
their services were required at Charleston.
The same night upon which they received the
notice from Charleston, the uniforms were
taken in a half-fnished condition from the
tailors. The next morning the company EN-
barked on the railroad train, and with them
their haltcompleted uniforms, in the hands
Of 100 of the fairest ladies of Columbia. AS
fast as few the wheels Of the locomotive,
they could not equal the speed OF the ladies
fingers, and when the train stopped at the
Charleston depot every uniform was ready.

Regulars and Volunteers.

The leading features of the bill intro
duced by Senator Wilkinson. of Minnesota,
abolishing the distinctions between regu.
lars and volunteers. are as follows:
Section first grants all the rights and
privileges granted to officers, musicians and
plivates and of the regular army of the
United States to volunteers of the same
grade, and they are to form and be here
after considered pant of the regular army.
Section second provides that all volun-
tecr regiments Of foot shall be considered
regiments Of Infantry. aud shall be num-
bercd in the same series as regular regi-
mcnts of infantry. the Oldest volunteer regi-
ment to be numbered goth, and the next
Oldest 2lst, and 80 on.
Sections third and fourth apply the same
principles to Cavalry and Artillery.
Section fifth relates TO promotions. 1t
provides that promotions shall hereafter be
made as heretofore, except that no regard
shall be had to the fact that the vacancy
to be filed OCCURS in 4 old regular" or a
new volunteer regiment, or that the Off
Ger to be promoted belongs to an old or a
new regiment.
Section sixth provides that all commits
sions issued by Governors to volunteer Off
GERS shall be considered the same a. if
Issued by the President, and officers shall
take rank according to the date Of sush
commissions.
Section seventh requires the President
to Gil all vacancies hcnocforth occurring in
volunteer regiments.

The Soldiers Aid Society.

The card Of the Soldiers Aid Society,
which has for some time been Published,
weekly. deserves the attention Of Il citi-
Gems, as the Society itself deserves their
generous and cheerful support. 1t is not
possible that any organization could BE-
formed for purposes more F~raisewortby, or
which appeals moro strongly to every scnti-
meut Of patriotism. justice, christianity, or
humanity. 1t is not a deed Of charity to
help this Society, for charity does not pre-
suppose The absolute right do demand, as
mere act of justice, which certainly is
the ease here. The soldiers in tie field

The Soldiers Aid Society here, has done
nObly, thanks to the libcrality Of the ladies
who compose it, and 4 few citizens, but
how much more can it not DO, if all those
who haye enough and to spare, will but
lend a helping hand. The articles the Sc
ciet5 sends, are mostly for hospital Par-
poses, those articles which arc most crate
full to Che sick and wounded soldiers, but
such as the Government docs not and can
not furnish. For them the soldiers must
almost entirely depend upon the generosity
and the thoughtfulness of f.iends at home,
and it is hopcd that vb,r they are mast
needed, they will not be lacking.

Congress.

Th Congress now in session wi. exer
else a more potent influence upon the future
of this nation than most of its predecessors
perhaps more than any since the first Con.
gress. Many changes have occurred sinct
the last, and some seats will be vacant
One of the first acts of this session was to
expel the traitor, John c. Breckenridge,
Of Kentucky, and his seat will probably be
filed by Crittenden, Or Holt. Benjamin
Stark, Of Oregon, will take the place Of the
lamented Col. Baker. I. J.. Phelps and
a. A. Sargant, from California. viii take
their seats for the first tine. Burnett, of
Kentucky, Norton and Reed Of Missouri,
will probably be expelled, if they have not
been, already. Several other changes will
be made, three or four new members from
tie loyal sections of Virginia will probably
represent loyal Tirginians, and perhaps
ore from North Carolina Will take of !
part Of the curse from that State.
The immense increase Of business yocca-
stoned by the war, It's novel character and
the heavy national expenditure consequent
upon 1t. will necessarily engage i large
share of attention. The question Of eman.
cipation, the possible change of the charao-
ter Of the war, in this respect, will excite
great interest. The recent speeches by
leading members, Indicate a .great advance
IN congressional as well aspublic sentiment
en this subject, and there is reason to BE-
lieve that there will be little cause to urge
Congress to more rapid progress in this d.
reetion than Il seems ready to make of its
