We have been requested by several low
ers of the histriouic profession to call the
attention of theatrical managers to the fact
that short season here this winter would
pay. We have had no amusements for a
long time it is urged-our people seem to
have as much money as ever and appenrto
spend it as freely, aud it is thought an en-
terprising manager might be more success
ful than the several unfortunates who have
gone before. 1t is observed that we have
more strangers in the city city this winter
than ever before, and when the Constitu-
tional Convention meets, and the LegisIa-
tnre convenes, the town will be oYerruu
with seekers after anus sements. Washing
ton Hall, since it has been remmOdeled-
and its stage enlarged, is the very place for
a small theatrical troupe.
Theatrical gentlemen will please think Of
this. Thrrc is the same activity in bust
ness circles as ever, and tie meeting of the
Convention and the Legislature will afford
:, ,nahager new and abundant sources of
patronage.

er about two weeks ago. ! have not re-
ceived an answer from either. am more
than anxiousto hear from you and all the
family. We are in fever Of excitement.
Col. Heywarl received last night an order
trom the Secretary of War to get every
thing ready for an attack, for Lincoln's
feet has left for our port. We have about
!, 500 men here. Col. Hayward has sent
to Savannah for 500 more, which are ex-
pected to arrive tomorrow. Ttisinpossi-
BILE for the beggars to pass our fort If
our men prove true to South Carolina,
which believe they will, we cangiVe them
two shells to their one, and any quantity
of hot shot and cold shot that they need.
We have plenty on hand. Last week three
steamers were placing buoys about three
miles from us, sounding out our channel. 1
hope in my next letter will be able to
gi youan account Of Numbering defeat
of the Yankee feet. Say howdye to all
our folks for me- lam in good health, l
hope this will findyou the same.

The recent vote taken in Western Virginia

We have reliable eiuformation that, when
the news of the capture of Port Royal
reached the Confederate camp at A[anHs-
sas, three South CAroIina regiments de-
manded permission, and declared their in
tention to return at once to the protection
of their own State. Orders were issued
Ttom headquarters, TO prevent heir departure
at all hazards The doctrine of State SOW
ereignty and of the right of secession does
not seem to find us much favor with the
Confederate authorities as it did at the out
set of the rebelIIon.
