RSS~ We publish to-day the account ofth sayings
and doings at Charleston in connection with the act of
firing into the Steamer Star of the West The account
is from the Charleston Courier paper which of course
goes with the State but has always been moderate and
conservative in its statements
OF the various rumors aoat it is rather pulling to
know which to credit or rather to which to give full
credit There is generally something at the bottom OF
them ALL but to what this something amounts subse-
quent Developments alone show. 1t would certain
" appear that the sending of the Star of the West to
Charleston was the act not Of the Cabinet but of Mr.
Holt and General Scott. Mr.. Holt is very bitter. Gen.
eral Scott is doubt great soldier, but the sword
ought not to be cast into this scale.
About the Steamship Brooklyn there are different
rumors it being pretty certain that she actually sailed
from Norfolk account saying that she went to coun
termand the Star of the West and prevent her attempt
ing to enter Charleston harbor with reinorcements
other runners are that she was sent to assist that vessel
It will be seen that Major Anderson has again refer
red the subject of his at Charleston to bis Gov
eminent This gives some more breathing time
Another rumor in town to-day is that assurances have
been received from the President that troops have
been ordered to North Carolina and that it is not
templated to order any We have not seen the dis
patch which communicates this information W.
trust that it is 1t postpones the evil hour but tn
fourth Of March is near at hand and rapidly approach
ing.

B1g~We are indebted to Mr.. Shaw, of this county,
for copy of Bill introduced into the House of Com
mons, by MIR. Person, as substitute for House Bill
1872 1t differs from the bill for which it is a substi-
tute in proposing to call Convention of the State by
a two-thirds vote instead of ma ority vote and
in this respect is probably amendment We think the
Convention had better be called by twothrds VOTE
We differ from the Bill in so far as provides for an
restricted Convention. The voice and the will of the
people in the choice of delegates should be ascetaned
upon the single specific question Of Federal Rela-
tons. That al-mportant matter should not now, by
any possibility be coupled with complicated by any
other if it can be avoided.

ggF From the correspondence of the Northern pa
pers and from other sources we are lead to the impress
sion that the Brook sent to intercept the Star OF
the West but not for the purpose of posponing the act
of reinforcing Fort Sumter It is asserted that it was
originally proposed to send the reinorcements by the
Brooklyn which vessel prepared for that purpose,
but upon further reflection commercial vessel was
chosen 1t was not until Saturday evening that the
War Department ascertained that battery had been
erected by the South Carolina authorities at the en-
trance of the harbor. An attempt was then made to
dean the Star of the West and transfer the troops to
the Brooklyn, but the despatch failed to reach New
York in tme and the attempt had to be abandoned It
is even said that yet the Brooklyn would take the
soldiers from the Star of the West and attempt to force
her way to Fort Sumter. She is strong, Wellarmed
vessel Of her cass-a Steam Frgate of the second Glass;
and it is thought that between her guns and those of
SUMTER the batteries of Morris Island and Fort Moul
trie would suffer- 1t is reported and generally believed
in Charleston, that Major Andersons force in SUMTER
or portion of them in state OF insubordinaton,
which parayzes theacton of that officer and of the work
which he commands. The reports differ as to the num-
Der of nsubordinates, ranging from 10 to %.
A gentleman just FROM Charleston informed us YES
terday that among the officers in the service of the
State of South Carolina, there much sympathy with
Maj Anderson who is said to be Southern man in all
his feelings and interests but is acting under sense of
what ne supposes due to his honor soldier.
WE learn from Washington that General Scott goes
around IN more than all his glory and urges extreme
measures and that ne rallies up the Republicans and
keeps pressure up upon the President who appears
likely to Weld to this cOercive dictation

The Forts.

The public here were startled yesterday afternoon by
learning that the citizens Of Smhvile were in posses
sion OF the Forts at the mouth of the Cape Fear River
to wit, Forts johnson and Caswell. Fort Caswel is
the fortfcaton Oak Island, Fort johnson is simply
garrison barracks at Smithvile. Neither Cf these
works have had any troops in them for years. conse
quently there resistance made to their being
cuped and of collision, any harm done to
the property We are not aware of the immediate
of this movement the part of feow-ctizens Of
Brunswick although have heard that despatch had
been received to the effect that CUTTER the
Forward, her way with troops, destined for
Fort Caswe low far this may be so, more than we
can say. No doubt the despatch was received and
from reliable source but all sources of information
apt to be misead themselves and therefore to misead
others in these times.
Of course there differences of opinion about the
prudence of this movement. Perhaps it is premature.
We could have wished that nothing had been done in
advance of the action of the State, but still must
believe that eow-ctizens in Brunswick acted from
belief in the propriety and necessity of their taking
such action they have taken. Perhaps it would save
complications for the Governor to order the militia of
the State to hold and take of this property to
guard against any further irregular unauthorized
movements We simply make the suggestion and trust
that some experienced head will figure it out We
must not let fellowctzens to trouble stand
aloof from them now, for we do the time may that
when wanted and called for will lest
they should not be sustained.
We have not learned the exact force state Of de-
fence of Fort Caswel We think there is not more than
four five guns mounted yet What munitions there
may be we do not know.-Da1ly Journal, lOh lhst.

bGF@Thank the Lord, tomorrow will be Sunday
Let US rest on that day from politics. if Let us
try to keep our minds in peace and quiet for day.
No bow can be always bent excited tension always
kept up without injury There are no Sabbaths during
revolutions If such must be the case and the danger is
imminent let have another Sabbath day of rest for
the mimi and body We do not mean in the Puritanic
way that the first day of the week should be day of
modification for it is mott is properly Christian
festival A day of rejoicing that the Lord has risen.
But to the many thousands to whom its religious OBJ
servance does not appeal with the force of obligation, it
is still day of rest-of the unbonding of the mndof
the cultivation Of the social feelings. Read religious
books tomorrow if you can-read novels if necessary
read anything except politics You may even read the
New York Ledger, Or the literary productions Of the
Minnie Myrtle school of writers. Milk and water will
be found to operate as relief from more stimulating
beverages.
Then let US seek rest for over-excited minds II
the teachings of regon-in the stories of romanceir
the fields of poesy-in the pleasures ofsocal converse
let us go out among the pines-go anywhere-look al
the big waves as they roll in upon the sands of the
shore-get microscope and study the anatomy Of E
Ay's leg-do anything that will change the current
our thou ghts for time. Perhaps when that curren
again begins to flow in its accustomed channel it vii
proceed with more equal and less feVerish motion.
Let the world and the nation take of itself fo
one day. Let us that day turn our attention II
the world which is to come, to that which is past
If the whole people, pulpit and press of the countr.
would do that, we think the effect would be good.
