WAsHINGToIs, March 15.-The Southern
Commissioners do not expect an answer for
several days. It is understood the Cabinet
has their mission under consideration. 81.
Great weight is attached in political cir
cles to the declaration of Fessenden in the

all its bearings.

received, but there is an intense excitement
to learn further particulars. .. -s-

NEW YORK, March I6.-The Times

Cabinet came to no decision yesterday on
the proposed evacuation of Fort Sumter, in
opposition to which some very strong argu-

the fort to the last extremity.

Mind Your own Concerns.

Yes, mind your own concerns, my friend,
For they are yours alone;
Don't talk about your neighbors faults,
But strive to mend your own;
What if he does not always lead
A truly perfect life
Supposng that he sometimes frets,
Or quarrels with his wife,
Don't meddle-let him know, my friend,
Your better nature spurns
To act the spy on him or his
So, mind your own concerns
Yes, mind your own concerns, my friend,
And presently you'll find
That you are fully occupied
And have enough to mind.
What ist to you if Snooks or Spooks
Should wed with Polly Jones?
What is't to you Il Lawyer 6rab
A plump half-millon ownsl
The money is not yours my friend,
Though golden stores he earns;
So, do not strive to count his wealth,
But mind your own concerns
Yes, mind your owS concerns, my friend,
1t were better plan,
Than always to be spying out
The deeds ofbrolhcr nlau.
Remember that all persons have,
Though hidden from the view,
Thoughts that to them in right belong
And not at all to you.
And also bear in mind, my friend,
A generous nature worms
No secret from brothers breast,
So, mind your own concerns.

THE CowARDLY' FIENDIsHNEss OF TIL E
REBELs.-The Boston Post, speaking &
of the battle OF Bull Run, says:
But where shall we find words, in
this enlightened age, to reprobate the
intamy Of their conduct. after their sue
cess, toward our noble soldiers? Are
their soldiers turned butchers Is
their boasted chivalry a mockery
Who can read without thrill of hor-
ror the loathsome reports of their bru-
tality? The wounded are fred into
while lying mangled on the tield-the
bleeding soldiers are tied to trees and
bayoneted-the weapons of the fallen
soldier are taken from him and plunged
into him, dead or dying. A Union
soldier takes up the wounded rebel,
ministers to him cup Of cold water,
and the bastard dispatches his beMefac-
tor while in the act To what depths
Of barbarism have American soldiers
stopped in their treatment of their fel.
!ow-citizens! The blood ofthe wronged
and outraged calls from the ground for
redress. Such acts Of inhumanity
make every man q soldier. Ameri-
cans! is there one drop of blood in your
veins YOU will not spill in such cause
Is there one dollar of treasure You do
not bold in trust for the good work.

the prominence Of this talented and in.

and several sons, the fourth one Of the
latter-sO runs the story-being the
identical Peter u. Toutant de Beaure-
gard, of whom the world has lately
heard so much. In 1881 or 1882 the
rich planter secured the admission of
this son into the Military Academy at
West Point under the name of Pierre
G. Toutant de Beauregard-Toutant Of
Beauregard-andhence the proposition,
as the geometricians say.
We think the Mexican journalist
who gives these items concerning Gen.
Beauregarl's pedigree, has kept pret-
ty strict watch upon the family, and has
followed Bnregallio Jr., (whom tho
| Mexican authorities could never find
out anything about while he was in
Mexico,) with vigilance that soe'ns to
have presaged :hat something would
come of him. And we don't perceive
anything very striking in the develop
ment anyhow. The public view Gen.
Beauregard as fighting man, a shrewd,
cunning and able commander, and we
don't exactly see why lie cannot be all
this, even if lis grandfather cos ban
dit. And besides, we don't believe in
visiting the sins of anybody upon tho
third aud fourth generations. Although
only the descendant of a bandit, he can
claim prc-eminence in treason.
