How TO PRESERVE IT.-It is observable that
the newspapers and the politicians, who insist
that the secession of seven States WAS so en-.
tirely an accomplished fact" when Mr.. Lin.
coin came into power, that he had no other duty
than to admit and recognise it, insist at the
same time, that Mr.. Lincoln will destroy the
Union by reversing the policy under which this
I" fact" Of the secession of seven States be.
came an " accomplished" one, If the theory
Of yielding forts, arsenals, and mints, upon the
demand ofrebellion, is such an admirable one,
why did it not save the States we are said to
have lost2 Or, if it has worked badly in
practice, why persevere in it2 Does it become
the partisans Of the late Administration, under
which disunion was, as they say, "dccom.
plished," to be advising as to the manner in
which the Union shall be preserved? Is the
policy Of surrender specially recommended by
its results3 Or is it not true, that few who
have seen seven States 60 of under that policy,
advise its continuance, except those who desire
to see seven more go off in the same way2

A DANGEROUS EMBAssY.-In the Virginia
Convention, last Saturday, the pending ques.
ton being that Of sending committee to in.
quire the meaning Of President Lincolu's mill.
tary movements, Mr.. Carlisle made the pertinent
but most troublesome inquiry, why similar
committee was not sent to Montgomery, to ascer-
tain what JEFF Davis is intending to do with the
troops he is raising. Hereupon, according to
the reported proceedings
"Ex-Governor Wise inquired whether Mr..
Carlisle would be named as one of the commit.
tee to be sent to Montgomery. !fso, that pould
be the last they ,oould euer see q him."
Mr. Wise understands the character of his
semi.oivilized friends at Montgomery, and has
truly stated the risk of trusting the life even of
Virginia committee man, not Of the right po-
litical stripe, in their hands. Mr.. Carlisle ought
not to risk himself in such locality, without
first making his will.

ing up as follows:
The national Republican., 1861-04-11

Gen. Sumner has gone to take charge of the
Pacific division, thus superseding Gen. John
ston, who has been some time in command,
and who is kinsman of Mr.. Floyd. Unpleas.
ant reports have reached here of late of prob
able detection in the army there, aud of cor.
resPondence carried on between high officers
and Jefferson Davis. These facts, and others
which may not be referred to, induced the
change. Gen. Sumner is a proved man, and
will meet all the responsibilities ofhis position.

The SYAxEs.-About two weeks ago, pa.
per box, containing two snakes, directed to the
President, came to the Post Office here, in the
Richmond (va.) pouch. There was no post
mark on the box. The discovery of the contents
was made in the office:here, by the breaking Of
the box. The matter was kept quiet SO long,
in the hope that the party or parties concerned
in sending the box might be discovered.
The national Republican., 1861-04-11

HEcToRING.-The Alexandria Gazette Of yes.
terday says, (the italics being our own y
"The Administration suffers itself to believe,
either by the representations of the leaders Of
the Republican party, or their party presses.
that hosfilities, or hostile designs upon any Of
the seeded States, or sending fleets to the TOR
tifcations there, or any such movements, has
any other tendency than to unite the whole
South, border States and all, in secession
movement, they have only the mselves TO blame
for their blindness and folly"
This is the sort Of hectoring which certain
politicians and presses in Virginia have kept
up quite as long as the country will tolerate it.
No mensces from any quarter will deter the
United States from sending fleets with supplies
and reinforcements to any Of their forts, North
or South. Those who indulge in such menaces
should seasonably count the cost Of making
them good, and the modification of backing
| down from them.

CALIFORNIA AND WASHINGTON TERRITORY
ITEMs.-The amount Of coal shipped from
Cumberland and the Black Diamond coal
mines, and from Mount Diable to San Fran.
cisco, is reported to be between 700 and 800
tons. The tunnels Of two mines are situated
1900 feet above the level of the bay. The
consumption Of coal in California the past year
was $4,000 tons, of which the amount supplied
from the Pacific coast was only $4,000 tons.
The Solano Herald thinks that the Cumber.
land and Black Diamond mines alone will
yield $4,000 tons per year.
The Washington papers estimate the wool
crop of that Territory the ensuing season at
100000 pounds.
The Democrats have called Convention to
nominate candidate for Congress, on the
18th of May, and the Republicans on the goth.
J. J. Stevens is the most prominent Demo-
cratic candidate.
Business of every kind has been very dull
in the Territory for some time, but reaction is
taking place. There is an increased demand
for lumber and spars. The great staple for ex.
port from the Territory has given activity to
all kinds of business
The farmers have concluded to profit by the
example of California, and hereafter they intend
to raise a surplus of grain for export.
Great preparations we're making in all parts
of the Territory for q rush to the new mines in
Nez Perces county, east of Cascade Range.

nss- From dispatches to the New York pa.
pers from Charleston, April 9, we extract the
following "sensation items:
at is estimated that near 5000 men are sta.
toned at Sullvans and Morris Islands and
along the coast. Companies are arriving from
the interior, and the different posts will be fur.
ther strengthened tomorrow by near 1000 ad-
ditional soldiers.
at is believed by many here that the fgh.
will commence at Stono, about thirty miles
southward--the batteries along the coast being
attacked and silenced in turn and that, having
cleared Morris Island, on which is the last of
these forts, the United States army will cross
to Fort SUMTER while the latter is engaging
Fort Moultrie.
"South Carolinians are anxious to meet the
enemy at the point Of the bayonet rather than
stand off and exchange iron compliments The
latter is q too deliberate style of fighting to
suit the impetuous nature Of the most desper-
ate set of men ever brought together in a hand
to hand conflict, which will be terrible.
"Four regiments, of q thousand men each,
have been telographed for from the country.
One of these, from Kershaw district, under
command of Col. Rion, formed with the under.
standing not to be called out until the fight was
positively at hand.
"Dr. Gibbs, Surgeon General, has been or.
dered to prepare ambulances, and make every
provision for the wounded.
"Advices from Montgomery state that offers
of volunteers from the border States continue
to pour in, and that tenders of 1000 men and
1000 Indian warriors have been received from
the West.
