We judge that RIP VAN WiNKLE has
awakened to new lease of life. Upon no
other hypothesis can we account for the an
nexed paragraph-the finale of an ultra abb
clifton editorial-in the first number of the
new Republican journal, the Press:
With the restoration of the government
through Mr.. Lncolns administration to its ira
ditional policy-new blood will be poured into
the veins of the national life-the slave States
reposing under the safeguards of the Constitu.
ton will enjoy security in the justice of the
nation which never could have been extorted
from it's fears. The anti-slavery agitation of
the North which has been constantly stimulat-
ed by the defiant efforts of the South to extend
the privileges of slavery-will subside with the
removal of these provocations---and an era of
domestic tranquility will succeed the intestine
broils which have brought the country under
Democratic rule to the brink of ruin.
This can have come from no other source
than one which has enjoyed for the past
ten years, the most thorough and absolute
state of unconciousness, as to events
Transporting in the confederacy. The idea
Of the slave States reposing calmly "under
/ the safeguards Of the Constitution" as adj
ministered by Mr.. LINCOLN, is a strikingly
original proposition. Our news columns
bear evidence daily of the delight with which
they hail L1NcoLN's accession to power.

What the South CarOlinians thinks
OF Mayor Anderson's Action.

'-'- - - WASHINGTON, Dec. 81.
The Charleston Courier of Friday, the
18th ult., says Major Anderson has achieved
the unenviable distinction of opening civil
war between American citizens by an act
of a gross breach of faith, and that be has
virtually and grossly violated solemn pledge
given by bis chief and accepted by South
Carolina; that he had all possible assurances
of South Carolina that his honor, position
and duty would be respected until proper
and open declaration of war. = IS
In the details of Major Andersons move
ments, the Courier says the evacuation of
Fort Moultrie commenced after shutdown on
Wednesday. The men were ordered to hold
themselves in readiness with knapsacks
packed, but up to the moment of leaving
bad no idea of abandoning the Fort. They
were reviewed on parade, and we're then
ordered to two schooners lying in the vicin.
ity, where they embarked, taking with them
all the necessary stores, &c. Several trips
were made during the night under cover of
which great part of the provisions and
camp furniture were transported. The
greater portion Of the work expended on
Fort MOutrie was upon the citadel or west
point of the position. The citadel Major
Anderson has strengthened in every way.
Loopholes we're cut and everything so ar
ranged that in case well concentrated
attack was made be could have retired from
the outer bastions to the citadel, and after.
wards blown up the other positions OF the
fort. For this purpose mines had already
been sprung and trains laid ready for the
application of the march. The barrack
rooms in every part of the fort that was in-
defensible, would have gone at a touch.
On the ramparts fronting Fort Sumpter,
nine.eight-inch Columbiads were mounted
on wooden carriages. As soon as the
evacuation was complete, these carriages
were burnt and the guns thereby dismounted.
These guns, as well as those constituting
the entire armament, we're spiked before the
fort was abandoned. This is the only dam
age done to the Notifications, further than
the cutting down Of the flag staff and break
ing up of ammunition wagons to form
ramparts on the walls of the fort. Other
particulars are given. arH r..
The confusion could not have been more
complete had the late occupants retired in
the face of besieging foe. The entire
place was Uttered with the odds and ends
and fragments OF wars desolation. The
spiked guns and those dismounted by the
burning of the carriages will soon be 10 9
position to respond to any hostile demon
STATIONS against the place. 2 I. e...'9
