The New Albany ledger SAYS In his speech
on the occasion of raising flag over tho State house
at indianapolis, Governor Mortsn said:
Let US each ono diligently search hearts and
see IL there any partisan preud ces, any party
resentm0nts that are impereeptibly and unknow
to ourselves, leading US aside from tho path ofdu-
ty, and if we find them there, pluck them ont and
hastily return.
The man who uttered these words is the identical
individual who, As Chief Magistrate of the State,
appointed as Commissioners to Wash ngtou five
ultra aud violent members ofone party. giving to
neither of the other three parties. representing
hundred and thirty five thousand voters no voice
whatever. Such is the difference between the
Governors professions and his practice. And yet,
il the opponents of Lincoln hint in the most gentle
manner, the impolicy of waging war against their
neghbors and countrymen of the South until fair
andj just terms Of compromise havo boon offered,
they are orthwith denounced ms TRAITORS" and

The dispatch received yesterday, by tho Secre-
tary of War informing him that Gen Twiggs had
surrendered the military property to the revolu-
tonists in Texas from tho Commissary of
Tubsistsnee, and dated at New Orleans. He adds
that as loan, the government means of transpor-
taton wore allowed to take the troops to tho sea
board, and they were permitted to take with them
three or four cannon and their side arms. The
Secretary receivedths morning tho documents
from Texas. showing that as early as tho 7th of
Febreary, Gen. Twiggs was entering into nego-
tations with the Texans for the surrender of the
military property. Col. Waite was several weeks
ago appointed 10 succeed Con. 1wiggs, rs chief of
the military department of Texas, but it appears
he had not cached therc at the time of General
Twiggs' surrender. which is considered by gov
ernmental authorities hare one Of the most dis
csasonis's.

Brief history OF Fort MOultrie


BTicf history OF Fort MOultrie.
Fort MOultrie, at the mouth OF the
Charleston harbof, is named in honor
Of General William Moultrie, one OF
the braysst patriots OF the American
revolution, who gained a memorable
victory at the fortress over O British
squadron June 28, 1776. Moultrie
was a native Of south Carolina, aud
Of Scottish descent. He early co.
poused the cause of Americas Inde
penience, and in March 1776, was or.
dered to construct fort On Sullivan
Island, at the mouth OF Charleston
harbor, and was engaged upon the
work when the British deet appeared
of the coast. lie was advised to
abandon the fortress, as General Chas
Lee, his superior officer, declared il
was no better than ga slaughter pen.' u
Bu: Moultrie had faith in Lis own
work, and defended the fort with
great skill and valor, and drove away
the enemy.
One British ship was lost, and two
others were 80 riddled as TO almost
have become wrecks. The loss of the
enemy was 222 killed and wounded
The Americans II killed and 26
wounded. The fortress was hardly
injured by the fire Of the British
squadron, and when the battle was
over every gun on the fort but one,
was still in position. The determin.
alton and courage Of Moultrie in thli
engagement elected great praise, and
the fort was by universal assent nam
ed iu honor Of it's skillful builder ant
gallant defender.
