The New Yorx Con,merac! Of Friday
says the news that Major Anderson had
evacuated Fort ,I3ultric, and entrenched
himself in Fort Sampler, was received with
unqu allied satisfaction, that
{. When the true character Of Maj. Ander-
son : NOV, ment 0ooLme known, universal
relief was experienced, and men were prompt
at congratUl1tinc each other that al pr0ba-
bility Of b.OOd-sael Was now over, aud chat
the possession of thc fonts and the command
Of the city and port being row secured be-
y0nd q peraGyentuTo. the insurgents might
be left for an definite time to " ordinance"
at their VIII, u1ui q PRACTICAL knowledge Of
the perplexitIes and inouTmOuntable difficult
ties of Secession should bring them TO reason
and common sense.
"Of course, the re7oiutionists are greatly
chagrined and indignant at this shrewd,
strategical movement Of Mai. Anderson, the
more SO, because it IS patent to the whole
country, that un'l now, Fort Sumpter was
left to their mercy, and their leaders have
openly b0asJed that the improvements max
ing there would all soon injure to the bene6. :,
Of the State Of South Carolina. Whatever
was their reason for not seziDg the fort,
WhetheI It was 4tdr or want CT foresight, ls
now question Of little moment 1t is placed
beyond their reach, and they are effeetually
checkmated. Tho slaf4 quo rue has been
applied there in a manner the reverse of what
they desired or expected.
The afternoon despatch to the same paper
says
Great eEorts are beiug made by the Sc
cessionists to have Major Anderson recalled
from the command Of the fortifcations in
Charleston haTb1r and the forts placed in
the possession Of tic militia Of South Caro-
lima, and there are net 4 few here who az
ticip.te that the President viii be weak
enough to yield to the Glamour and threats
of the RevoutiOnists.
Some Of the insurgents have also sent on
a despatch demanding that Major Anderson
shall be hamililcad By being rsprimanded
and seat back to Fort Moultrie, which does
not agree with the report that Fort MOultrie
is in their possession. The telegraph is be

fling amendment 90 the Fugitive Law. and
the admission into the Union at once Of Kan

require no tinkering Of the Constitution, and
