CONDITION OF FoRS SearEs.-A gentleman
who made a thorough examination OF Fort
Sumter few months ago, and who is well
skilled in military affairs, Informs US that it is
almost impossible for any successful attack to
be made upon it, and that it is as near imprpg-
nabIe as human science can render it. lts
walls are 80 high that it is almost impossible
for any shell or cannon ball to be thrown into
the fort, and they cannot make serious i'm,
preston upon its massive walls. in case OF an
assault, any enemy that wOnid come near
enough to lombard or cannonade i; would be
subject to terrific fire from its heavy guns
Excellent arrangements have been made for
securing good supply of water From deep
wells which have been dug, any quantity of
water necessary for washing and cooking can
be obtained, but it is slightly brackish in taste,
and for ordinary drinking therefore, they rely
upon rain water, which is preserved in immense
tanks under the fort, where It'll kept cool, and
by filtering, rendered agreeable to the taste
Our informant expressed a belief that Major
Anderson would be able to hold it for six
months against any force that could be brought
against him, if his suppIies-and he has an
abundance of all he needs except fuel-are not
exhausted

E BROOKLYN OFF CHARLESTON.
Washington Items.

TIE Times correspondent telegraphs
| have good authority for saying that extreme
Southern men have been for some days past
engaging rooms in every quarter Of the city
until after the 4th of March-the object being
of course, to food the city with opponents of
the new Administration, and, in case Of trouble
10 assist in the riotous proceedings. 1t has
become known beyond doubt, as intimated
above, that there is a preconcerted movement
among the Secession members to remain until
the close of the present session to stave off the
Army and Navy Appropriation bills 1t was
so declared by prominent Secession member
of the House to-day. As a set-of, many Re-
publicans and the President have received as
surances from many Northern States that they
will appropriate and loan the Federal Govern
ment all that is necessary to carry on every
department Of the Government.
A gentleman arrived this evening from Char
lesion, in company with Com. Shubrick. Both
say the panic Ghich prevails there is unparal-
eled There is a great lack of food; business
is prostrated; the people are idle and patrols
are wandering up aud down to preserve order
On the day Com Shubrick left, there was un-
usual excitement, and upon inquiry he found
that news had been received that the steamer
Macedonian was on her way with 800 troops
to lombard the city and reinforce Major
Anderson. lie could not convince them to the
contrary, and expresses the opinion that they
cannot hold ont in their present condition long
unless Georgia comes to their relief No vessel
entered or left the harbor while they were
there.
WASHINGTON, Friday Dec H.
Lieut. TALBOT arrived here this afternoon
from Fort Sumter, and held conference i'm
mediately with the President and Gen SCorr,
l understand that he reports that the condition
Of Fort Sumter is not so favorable as was be-
leved by the Government. Twenty seven guns
are mounted on the first tier, eight on the third
tier, and they are mounting Others. The second
tier of embrasures is blocked up. The fort he
thinks, can hold out for two months with the
present supplies, there being plenty of good
water and fuel for cooking. The supply of coal
is short The statements of abundant supplies
probably were made by the officers to quiet
the apprehensions of their friends. Major
ANDERsoNs brother has repeatedly stated that
the supplies were abundant.
II is said that the Administration is deter
mined to send supplies at all hazards and that
it repeated to-day that the BrOoklyR will go
down, and if necessary, engage the batteries on
Morris Island without crossing the Bar, while
another steamer escorts the Star of the TVest
to Fort Sumter.
Secretary THOMAS resigned today, as was
predicted in last evenings despatch, and Gen.
DIX was nominated and confirmed his successor

TOWANDA:
THE PRESIDENTS SPECIAL MESSAGE.

D
The Special Message of President BUcHAN.
AN in reference to the present agitated condi-
tion of the country, aud particularly regard
ing the recent action of South Carolina, was
on Wednesday sent to Congress The Mes
sage was prepared Immediately on the depar-
ture of the South Carolina Commissioners
from Washington, after their Intellectual en-
deavor to induce the Administration to sur
render the fOrtihcations in Charleston Harbor
to the State, and has since been awaiting an
opportunity for presentations The most i'm
portant feature of the document is in reference
to the execution of the Federal laws and the
protection of the Federal property. The
President says there is no alternative but to
collect the revenue at Charleston, and to pro-
tect the public property as far as practicable
under existing laws. The right and duty TO
use the military and naval forces against those
who illegally asSail the Government are clear
and indiSputable but he considers the pres.
ent state of things revolutionary, and beyond
Executive control, and throws the whole re-
sponsiblity of action in the emergency upon
Congress, which alone has the power to de-
clare war, or to remove a grievance which
might lead to war He therefore appeals to
Congress to take some measures to preserve
the UnOn and suggests the restoration of the
old sc deg 80 min. Compromise line as calcu
lated to produce a good result. He alleges,
as reason for the delay in sending reinforce
ments to Major ANDERSON, that such an &C.
ton would have furnished the pretext, if not
the provocation, for aggression on the part of
South Carolina and at the same time admits
that had Fort Monltrie been attacked Major
ANDERSON could not have held possession more
than sixty hours.
On the presentation of the Message in the
Senate, Mr.. SEWARD obtained the floor to ex-
press his views in reference to it, Mr.. DAVIS,
of Mississippi in calling for the reading of the
correspondence with the South Carolina Com
missioners, animadverted upon the fact that
the President had failed to include the last
communication Of the Commissioners, and had
not even announced their departure from
Washington. The communication alluded to
was read after considerable objection, by per-
mission of the Senate, and all further discus
sion of the subject was postponed until Thurs
day.
In the house, on motion of Mr. HOWARD, of
Michigan, the Message was referred to q Spe
cial Committe of five, with power to investi
gate everything pertaining to the present diff
icultes, and with liberty to send for persons
and papers There was strenuous opposition
to the passage of this resolution, but it went
through by vote Of 1873 against 62.

The Governor OF WISCONSIN in his mes
sage recommends the Legislature to prepare
the State for military assistance to the gener-
al Government in order to maintain the integ-
rity of the Union He recommends the firm
maintenance of the Personal Liberty law of
the State as essential to the protection of the
people against kidnapping Every human be-
ing he remarks, has right to legal test to
determine whether he is a freeman or a slave
The message gives great satisfaction,

Particulars of her Attempt to Enter the

Arrival Of the" Brooklyn off Char
lesion Harbor.
NEW YORK, Saturday, Dec. -.

NEW oRK, saturday, Dec. l..
The steamer Star of tn. Hest, from Char
lestou three days, arrived this morning and
report that on Wednesday, at A. NJ, made
charleston Bar, laid to until daylight when she
proceeded to enter the harbor When off
Morris Island was fired into by The battery
from that point
Seventeen shots were fired at her, one tax
ing slight effect ou her port bow, and second
as she turned to leave harbor, on the starboard
quarter
One ball passed between the smoke stack
and the engine beam.
Finding it impossible to land troops-was
returning to sea when the fire was continued
several shots being fred after her.
Succeeded in getting to sea without expert
encing other damage to vessel or those on
board. On coming out over the bar the ship
struck twice. Remained outside the bar over
Wednesday night. That night saw steamer
coming out OF the barbor Supposed she was
in pursuit, and extinguislled all lights and was
not seen by them.
On same night spoke ship Emily 81. Pierre,
of and for Charleston, at anchor, who had been
refused admittapce, IN consequence of haring the
American flag flying.
The troops will remain on board until orders
are received from Washington.
THE INJURIES To THE STAR OF THE WEST.
Duriag the firing, Quartermaster Hannegan
stood in the port fore chains, heaving the lead.
A ricOctet shot struck the ship directly beneath
him, three feet from the water-line. Begin
ming to think bis position little unsafe, the
Quartermaster intimated to the Captain that
he would prefer, if he had no objections, to
heave the lead on the other side OF the ship ;
but Capt. McGowan quietly replied that he
might be safe; another shot would not strike
in that place and the officer kept at his post
Previous to the firing, all the troops were be-
low deck, but the report of the guns so excl
ted them that before three shots had been fired,
a large portion of them were again on deck,
where they fearessly stood, witnessing the
rather wild practice Of the South Carolina
guerrilla artillery. The shot which Captain
MCGOWAN says came within an ace of carrying
away his rudder, passed within four feet of the
stern. The shot which struck the hull made
an indentation of the size of hatcrown, and
some three inches deep, but did not fracture
the plank The shot which struck the after
bulwarks, made an ugly opening in the light
wood work, and rebounded over the ship. No
one on board was injured by the shots

pa A caucns of Republican members was
recently held at Washington, to consider the
terms of proposed compromise. In the re-
port of the proceedings we find the following ::
Mr.. Grow, of Pennsylvania, expressed him
self decidedly opposed to all compromises
He asked what better platform the North or
the South could have to stand upon than the
Union, the Constitution and the Laws The
Republican party has chosen a. President in
accordance with the forms of the Constitution
and is entitled to fair play. If his admins
tration Of the Government is resisted by those
opposed to Mr. Lincoln, the crime will be
theirs. When the Republicans took their po-
Sition before the election, they knew tney
would have to meet this state of things, and
now they should not put the burden upon pos
terity.
Mr. GROW, in these remarks faithfully rep
resents the feelings and views of his constitu-
ency. The Republican party has presented
no issues, nor assumed any position which calls
for acknowledgment that they have acted
wrongly, or in a spirit of unkindness towards
the South. They have not promulgated doc
trnes which have not been advocated by the
Fathers Of the Republic, and endorsed and
sanctioned by the wisest men of the South
They propose no acton of the General Co.
vernment which shall encroach upon the con.
stitutional rights Of the South. To give way
to the insoIent and humiliatng exactions now
demanded, would be gross cowardice, and
would demoralize and disintegrate the Repub.
lican party. If the Union cannot be preserv.
ed with Republican President faithfully ad-
miDistering the Constitution and the Laws, it
is hardly worth preserving, To acknowledge
such a result, would be to confess the utter
failure of our Republican system-and to sub
nit to it would be to degrade ourselves as the
vassals and serfs of the Slave oligarchy. The
Northern Representative, who at this time,
gives way to his fears consigns himself to po-
litical oblivion, and his memory to disgrace
and infamy.
