CHARLESTON December 3l.--The Charles
ton Courier of Friday, says that Major AM
derson has achieved the unenyiable dstinc-
ton of opening civil war between American
citizens, by an act of gross breach Of faith,
and that he has virtually and grossly vio-
lated solemn pledge, given by his Chief and
accepted by South Carolina, that he had all
possible assurances of South Carolina that
his honor, position and duty would be re-
spected until proper and open declaration
Of war.
In the details of Major Andersons move
ments, the Courier says theeyacuation of
Fort Moultrie commenced after sun6own on
Wednesday. The men were ordered to hold
themselves in readiness with knapsacks
hacked, but up to the moment Of leaving,
had no idea Of abandoning the fort. They
were reviewed on parade, and were then
ordered to two schooners, lying in the vi
cinity, where they embarked, taking with
them all the necessary stores, &c. Several
trips were made during the night, under
cover of which great part of the provis-
ions and camp furniture were transported.
The greater portion of the labor expended
on Fort Moultrie was upon the citadel, or
west point Of the position. This citadel
Major A. had strengthened in every way.
LoophOles were cut, and every thing so ar
| ranged that, in case well coneocted attack
was maze. ne cOulu nave fellreu from tue
outer bastions TO the citadel, and afterward
blown up the other positions of the fort. For
this purpose mines had already been sprung,
and trains laid, ready for the application Of
the match. The barrack rooms, and every
other part of the fort that was indefensible,
would have gone at touch.
On the ramparts fronting Fort Sumpter
| were nine eight-inch Columbiads, mounted
| on wooden carriages. AS soon as the eVac-
uation was complete, these carriages were
| burned. and the guns thereby dismounted.
| These guns, as well as those constituting the
entire armament, were spiked before the fort
was abandoned.
This is the only damage done TO the forti-
| fication further than the cutting down of the
| flag. staff and breaking M of ammunition-
wagons to form ramparts on the walls of the
| fort Other particulars are given.
The confusion could not have been more
complete had the late occupants retired il
the face of besieging foe. The entire placC
was Uttered with the odds and ends anG
fragments Of wars desolation. The spiked
guns, and those dismantled by the burains
of the carriages, will soon be in position L
respond to every hostile demonstration
| against the place.

A GRATEFUL DlsAPPo1NTMENT.--A fond
mother in Chicago, Ill, recently received a
letter from California, where her son had
been for several years, and on opening it a
newspaper scrap fell out, which she read first.
1t announced that young man of his name
had been hung for horse stealing. The poor
woman shrieked and fell fainting; but, the
bystanders found that the letter was from
the young man himself denying the truth of
the paragraph, and announcing his own early
return home with q pocket full of rocks.
The fellow hung had stolen his satchel, and
the letters found therein gave a wrong iden-
tity TO the individual.

DEMONSTRATION OF LIBERTY IN PoLAND.-
On the 29th ult. the anniversary of the Po-
lish revolution, several persons had ordered
funeral service to be performed in the Car
melite Church of Warsaw. Every thing
passed off quietly till the close, when the
persons present struck up hymn in favor
of the deliyerance of their country and
against its oppressors. The officiating cler-
gyman vainly requested the parties to stop,
and the oFgaBist ceased playing, but cne Of
the persons present took his. place and ac-
companied the singing.
The same persons intended meeting again
in the evening, but when they reached the
church it was closed. They then illuminated
the statue of the saiRt at the church door,
and an immense crowd collected. The same
hymn was then repeated, some persons
kneeling to sing it. The crowd afterward
quietly dispersed singing as they went, Q
song Of which the burden was "Poland is
not yet lost" There was no interference on
the part of the police.

%THE DUKE OF NEWCASTLE THE NEW KNIGHT
OF THE GARTER.--The rapid decision which
both the Queen and the Prime Minister ar
rived at with reference to the gift of the
Garter to the Duke of Newcastle, took some
of the nobility by surprise, especially those
who fancied they had an equal claim to the
distinction. The Duke of Newcastle has,
however, once declined the Order of the
Garter.
There was vacancy after the close of the
Crimean war, and as the Duke was the Sec
retary of State for War when it commenced,
and during a considerable part Of its pro
gress, Her Majesty paid his Grace the high
compliment Of offering the Blue Ribbon To
him. But considerable difference of opin-
ion had arisen among the statesmen who
composed, the Original War Cabinet, and
there was doubtless, some irritation, and
considerable wounded feeling; the Duke had
retired from Office in the hight of the war
and, with high-mindedness all must ad
mire, His Grace, with every feeling of graft
tude for Her Majesty's gracious kindness
declined the proffered honor. 1t is no won
der then, that the selection of the Colonia
Secretary, on this occasion, was immediate
