FAVORABLE SIGN

We are very happy says the Washington Star,
to have it in our power to say that the Government
here has become satisfied that all danger of hostile
collision between its forces and those engaged in
the secession movement is rapidly disappearing.
The revolutionary authorities of South Carolina
have entirely changed their policy, and are now
striving to prevent and avoid the collision in
Charleston harbor they were evidently striving to
precipitate up to very recently. 1t is believed
that this change of their tactics is the result of
the growing desire of the people of South Carolina
for settlement of the difficulties without the
permanent destruction of the Union; and that it
means that the revolutionary authorities of that
State are acting under the advice of leading SYM
pathizers with their cause in other States (such as
Fitzpatrick, of Alabama, who has never had any
part in the movemeBt; Mason, who represents a
border State; Davis, who expects to reconstruct
the Union; and Clay, who comes from North Ala

FROM CHARLESTON.

CHARLESTON, Jan. 23.-The sentry on the beach
at Sullvan's Island fired into boat from Fort
Sumter, Monday night, with three mufHe1 oars
the sentry hailed them and warned them off Not
being obeyed, he fired into the boat, whereupon it
turned and went away. Soon after noise was
heard at Fort Sumter like the hauling up Of a
boat One of the men in the boat are SAID to be
wounded badly. Those in the boat is supposed to
have been deserters from the Fort Some of the
widest thinkers suppose it desperate attempt
to run the gauntlet of the sentry and spike the
guns of the battery.
Jeff Davis, of Mississippi,was expected here last
night, and preparations were made to welcome
him He is highly spoken of for President of the
Southern Confederacy.
The Governor is in receipt of many insulting

GEN. SCoTT.--It seems to us that the common
impression that Gen. Scott is Coercionist, is not
warranted by the "v;ews" of that officer, lately
submitted to the War Department In the event
Of continuous line of secession, he distinctly dis
claims the idea Of coercion, and such continuity
now exists Moreover, his distinguished public
services ought not to be at once forgotten, and
some allowance should be made for soldiers de.
votion to his flag. We believe that his heart is
with Virginia, and certainly the spirit of his letter
is far different from the hostile tone of certain
Northern military aspirants for the Presidency,
whose huge threats of "blood and thunder" can
only excite here contemptuous sarcasm and deris.
