IBteresting from Charleston Gen. Beau
regards Demands Respecting Fort SUM
ter-Distres 81 In the City
The Charleston Is. o. correspondent of
the New York Tribune writes on the 10Th
instant:
The long expected orders from Washing
ton have not yet arrived at Fort Sumter. 1t
is earnestly hoped by the Union men here
that the Government will, if possible, sustain
Major Anderson in his position. A struggle
seems imminent in any case, for Gen. Beau
regard has distinctly stated in the hearing of
intimate friends of mine, that the fort shall
be surrendered to him and not evacuated;
that be shall not be satisfied unless Major
Anderson delivers into his hands his sword.
He also says that no United States vessel
shall enter the hatbor until his officers have
searched il, and is talking large generally.
A force of 1000 well. trained men 10 the
City of Charleston would blast the whole
concern; and hundreds of working-men,
with true hearts and hard hands, would i'm
mediately rally from all parts of the State if
the Stars and Stripes are once again un-
furled. Every humane man mus deprecate
war; but it is worse than war to see the
honor, the freedom, and fair fame of ones
country trodden into the dust by these trait
orous hoTdes.
/ can not give you a better idea of the
position to which the white laboring man
has been reduced from the effects of this
rebellion, than by assuring you that the few
laboTing men who are so fortunate as to be
retained in the employ of the South Caro-.
lima Railway Company, are now receiving
the extraordinary sum of fifty cents per day
for their labor.
One of their number told me this morning
that his wages had been gradually reduced
from So to seventy-fve cents q day, but
that when it got below that he left, and
with his small saving, rs a last resource, es-
tablished a whisky shop. Daily applica-
tions are made to the Foreign Societies here,
begging them to send whole families away
to the North and the distress is increasing
daily and with rapid strides. Meantime
provisions are steadily Increasing In. price,
and the season is gradually crawling toward
the time when disease as we'll as want will
make sad havoc among the poor.

EXECUTION OF A FILIACIDE IN FRAYoE.-
Lault, the man who was lately condemned
to death by the Court of Assizes of the Yonne
for the murder of his two daughters-crimes
committed in the belief that his wife had
been unfaithful to'him, and that the children
were really not his-was executed at Aux
ere. Although he had expected a commu-
tatlOn of punishment, he received with great
calm the announcement that he was to be
put TO death. He, however, more than once
exclaimed; ut is a sad thing to die at my
age-only forty And in such a way, too p
On the way to the scaffold, he gazed with
great curiosity on the crowd which was as
sembled, and on being told that he had better
occupy himself by praying to God for par
don, he said "0hf l am looking to see if
there be any one from Clancy, my native
place" When he was taken from the cart he
was agitated, and had to be assisted up the
steps of the scaffold. He cried once or
twice: "My friendsl will no one save me
from death" But he afterward knelt with
two priests who were in ~attance, and prayed
for pardon. A few seconds after he was
strapped to the plank. Just BEFORE the knife
Tell he raised a loud cry.

Termination of the LOngw ortiz Y eIvertOn
Case-A Verdict In Favor of the Fair
Teresa-Exciting Scene in Court.

CaBe-A VERDICT IN Favor OIL the FAIR
Teresa Exciting Scene in Court.
This cause, the trial of which at Dublin,
before the Common Pleas, has excited much
interest, and has been mentioned at length
in the PRESS, was brought to a close on the
4th inst, when the Chief Justice delivered
his charge to the jury, who Immediately re-
tired.
After an hours absence, the jury returned
with q verdict in favor of Mrs. Yelverton,
nee Teresa Longworth.
When Mrs. Yelverton's counsel, Mr..
Wbiteside, entered the room where she was
waiting, his countensnce and significant
gestures, as well as the cheers which rang
through the Court, told her that the verdict
was in her favor; she sprang forward, with
out saying a word, clasped him in her arms,
Selling his two hands, kissed them.
Overcome by the violence of her emotions,
after such a long and terrible tension of the
nervous system, she sank down, exhausted,
and found relief in a flood of tears. The ex-
citement in the Court when the verdict was
announced, was quite unprecedented. The
whole audience rose and cheered tumultu-
ously, the ladies waving their handkerchief,
the gentlemen their hats, and the barristers
their wigs. 1t was a delirium of joy.
The contagion spread through the multi
tude outside, and the shouts of triumph
passed along the whole line to the Greshath
Hotel in Sackville. street. The crowd iu-
sisted on taking the horses from Mrs. yell
%verton's carriage and drawing it to the hotel,
where she was obliged to appear on the
balcony to crafty her admirers. She said
"My noble-hearted friends, you have by
your verdict this day made ne an Irishwo.
man. You will forever live in my heart, as
l do in yours, this day"

The Confederate Coiuase-The PhIIOso-

u Int N0nICutEhNt uaEc Nc Iull0h0-
piers Stone. .
TIE special correspondent Of the Gazette
thus shows how the South can trouble the
North, and make itself rich at the same time:
"a law will be passed as soon as the Gov
eminent is recognized, fixing the standard of
coin lower than the present one, thus invit-
ing immense quantities of our coin for remelt-
ibg. Should percentage be even slight, the
difference would be immense in two or three
millions"
Here is the philosopher stone. The Con-
fedeIates will take our twenty dollar peices
and recon them with alloy into $25 or $50,
put the Confederate stamp on them, and pass
them back on us, making a clear profit of
fifty per cent. And if they can do it once,
they can repeat, making fifty per cent, not
only on the fraction of gold, but on the
previous alloy, every time.
What an innocent little cherub this special
must bel He evidently thinks that if the
Confederates should stamp seventy-fve
cents worth of our gold and silver with the
denomination of 81, it would be offering a
premium for our coin that would draw it
all there 10 be recoined. If so, the Confed-
crates could make ten, twenty or fifty per
cent, according to the stamps they affixed,
by the simple process of recoining; for if
they can make one per cent. by this opera
ton they can make 100 per cent, and can
support their Government by the recoinage
lone.

was burned to the ground on last Saturday
night. The postofice was consumed with
and two children were burned to death.
The father and wife at first escaped, but re-
turning into their burning dwelling to save
their children, persisted with them. On
Saturday afternoon three men, melted by
bad whisky, got into a fight; a fourth party,
desiring to stop the ~fracas, interfered, when,
to save himself he found it necessary to
knock one of the belligerents down. The
man who received the blow then threatened
to burn the house of the one who inflicted
it, and, aided by the two men, carried out
his threat. The wind being high, the flames
spread with great speed.

Fort Sumter to be Charged and ReocIptcd


The telegraph reports that the Cohfeder-
ntes are TO give Major Anderson a receipt
for Fort Sumter. This is an improvement
in the art Of war. The habits of the Con-
federates are strictly business.like. When
they seized the arsebals aud the other public
property, they told the Government TO charge
il. We doubt not they would receipt for
every thing with the most scrupulOus exact
ness. A receipt for Fort Sumter will be a
document worthy of a gilt frame, and to be
suspended among our national trophies. We
suppose it will read somewhat as follows:
"Received of Major Anderson, of the
late United States, in good order and we'll
conditioned, one fort, called Fort Sumter,
with armament complete, a full supply of
war-like material, military stores, furniture
aud cooking utensils; also, one flag, called
the HStar spangled Banner" much battered.
The above is to be charged IN account to the
Confederate States Of America, on their dIvi-
dend Of the public places and property Of
the late United States, to be arranged at the
final settlement.
