The following items are from the cores
pondence of the Cincinnati Gazette;
There is statement going the rounds that
Mrs. Anderson. the wife of the commanding
officer Of Fort Moultrie, had personally solici-
Ced the President to send additional troops
to th:: .ortress. which is in a weak condition,
bat that the President, in pursuance of his
policy not to do anything to add to the ex
citerlent in South Carolina, had declined TO
acccde to the request.
Amos Kendall continues his articles against
secession in the Washing Star, some of which
are admitted to be very clever and power
fully written. The vigor displayed by man
of Mr.. Kendall's age is really astonishing.
Mr.. Trescott, Just from South Carolina, has
definitely informed the President that State
will do nothing Immediately TO provoke u
collision with the Federal Government.
Judge Morsell, of the Circuit Court here,
has just decided that when an inventor, after
the rejection of his claims for patent, with
draws the same, and suffers a considerable
number of years to elapse before renewing
his application, he will be adjudged to have
forfeited any rights that he might otherwise
have had.
Douglas has made quite a good point on
Mason. The latter complained that the Flu
giuve Slave Law had proved imperative. -
Douglas reminded him that he was the au-
thor of the law of 1850, and that if the law
was insufficient, he should bring in amend
ments to render it otherwise rather than to
propose to dissolve the Union.

A SENSIBLE Doe.-The Akron (Ohio) Bea-
con tells the following "dog tale:"
In the pleasant town of p, in New
England, lived family, who, being of diff
ferent religious persuasion, usually attended
the sole village meeting house" indeed, but
with no very strict punctuality. They had
pet dog, who much more regularly Needed
"the sound of the churchgoing bell" and
with or without the family, every Sunday
seated himself in the family pew. Among
the preachers whose relations to the pastor
were such as to entitle him to an occasional
exchange of pulpits, was the Rev. Mr.. c. an
exceedingly heavy, prosy, dull preacher
On one OCCASION the family referred to re-
mained at home in the morning but in the
afternoon went to the church, the dog, to
their surprise, not only showing no inolina-
tion to go, but persistently refusing to follow.
On arriving at church the lady discovered
the reason why the dog staid at home. THE
ReO Mr. Q. predched-and one sermon from
him was as much as the dog could endure in

SCALY TINES FoR LiNooLN.-The papers are
filed, says an exchange, with conjectures con-
cerning the probable course of Lincoln in the
Administration of the Federal Government
The business of cabinet making is in full blast
and many schemes and plans put forth. The
aim of all seems to be to quiet distrust, allay
alarm and assure the South and North that
Mr. Lincoln's administration will be conserv-
alive and just to all All very well-but can
this be done and maintain the integrity 1--WE
mean entirety, not morality and virtue-these,
it has none) Of the Republican party? Can
President elected by one hostile section of
the Union pursue course which would re
concile the opposing section, and retain the
aid and support of his own? This remains to
be seen. fGiddiBgs and Oberlin are thrown
overheard, and the helm entrusted to the
Corwins and Ewings of the North and to Bell
Everett men of the South, will not the Re
publican party be dissolved We anticipate
the iiercest and most unrelenting opposition
to Mr.. Lincoln from his own supporters, and
that he will throw himself upon the conserv-
atve and Union men of all parties before six
months of his term shall have elapsed. We
shall see what we shall SEQ.

Horse AoCIDENr.--On Monday morning,
says the Red Bluff Independent, while Mr..
Bone was driving his horse and dray from
the levee with load, one of the wheels
sunk into hole, in that part of the road i'm
mediately below the mill, bringing the horse
to the ground, when the shaft came in con-
tact with the horses leg and broke in two -
Mr. Bone, not wishing to keep the animal in
agony, sent man to shoot him, but was pre-
vented by farmer taking the horse, with
the consent of Mr.. Bone, to endeavor to cure
him if possible. Mr.. b. informs us that 5000

The white population Of South

The white population of South
carolina was. ................ .214 ,5G3
At this moment the white population of
the former States is probably not less than
five millions, while that of the latter scarce
ly exceeds three hundred thousand. Now, is
it not little arrogant for South Carolina,
With q white population of less than a third
of million to tell the five millions of white
men in seven other States that she intends to
drag them into rebellion and revolution,
whether they will or no? Ought they not,
in unmistakable terms. to tell her that they
do not mean to be led by her to their own
destruction, and that if she does not pause in
her mad career, she will, so far as they are
concerned, be left to encounter alone the tre-
mendous responsibility?
SO much for what win happen to the
Union, if South Carolina and her Gulf Sisters
go out. But, we should much deprecate let
ting them go ont peaceably, because it would
be an acknowledgment that there was no
power of coercion in the Federal Govern
ment-that our Union was mere league and
not Nation. This acknowledgment would
be dangerous one for the future of the
Union existing after the seeding States were
gone. There would be, as we have attempt
ed TO show, no immediate danger, but, in the
lapse of years, there might spring up discon
tents, and then the pernicious example OF
South Carolina would be followed, and the
practical result of the Internal heresy of
peaceable secession might be gradual dis
integration and final destruction Of the re,
public.

SHOT BY MIsrAKE-Dr. j. X. Boyce, Of Sac

is lying in critical condition at his resi-
dence in Sacramento, having been shot thro'
by a man named Tierney, who has recently
got back from Washoe, his wife meantime re-
maing at Sacramento. Tierney suspected a
man named Cassidy, employee on the steamer
Swan. of having led his wife astray from the
path of virtue, during his absence, and was
determined to kill him. Seeing Boy &c and
Cassidy near the corner of X and Sixth sts,
he fired at Cassidy. The aim missed and
Boyce was shot through, the ball entering
between the shoulders and coming out of the
chest in front. Boyce staggered and was ta-
ken into a blacksmith shop near by and
thence into a carriage and to his residence
Tierney continued to fire at Cassidy, but, as
matter of course, such marksman couldn't
hit the object he aimed at, and Cassidy on a
clean run, escaped unframed. Tierney was
arrested.
