correspondence of Judge Campbell with Mr..
Seward:
jeff Davis has sent to the Southern Congress q
brief message, accompanying some documents
concerning the negotiations Of the Southern Com
missioners with the United States Government.
Justice Campbell, who, while holding position
on the Supreme Bench of the United States, was
making-to use Davis words" earnest efforts to
promote the successful issue of the mission in
Judge to Mr.. Seward, nclosed in the message are
interesting. In the longer one, it appears that the
ex-Judge plainly charges the Secretary of State
with making specific promises and pledges that
Fort Sumter should be evacuated. He says that
on one occasion, Mr.. Seward read to him letter
from Thurlow Weed, and afterward made distinct
declaration that the fort should be evacuated be-
this presents but one side of the case, and the
other view will doubtless be presented by Mr..
Seward,

Greeley concludes that the South can


fight. AS to which, see the following:
Let the folly be utterly hooted of supposing that
the rebels will not fight They 1rW, they must
fight, and that desperately. A peaceful adjust
ment is a sheer impossibility, and has been from
the hour that the iron hail was first raned on the
walls of devoted Sumter.
Nor will it answer to deprecate the military
and efficiency of the rebels. Even towards
in their position would fight desperately, and they
are no towards. Most OF them have been trained
from the cradle to consider personal bravery the
very first requisite Of manly character, and skill in
the of arms the first necessity of gentleman.
The rifle and the revolver have been their play
things from boyhood, and the duel, or some q diff
Guilty y involving peril to life, are with them themes
of daily contemplation and frequent observation.
And, while we are confident that maority of the
Southern people are at heart Unionists to-day, we
Judge that seven-eighths of the fighting force-the
"Chivalry n-of the Slave States-thc young, the
daring, the ambitious, the desperate-have been
drawn into the mesles of the rebellion. They have
many Of the very best of our late army officers,
and their soldiers will at first be better led and
handled than ours. Such are the advantages with
which they will enter upon the contest, add to
which, it must be fought mainly ground which
they know thoroughly and we very imperfectly, in
the midst of their resources and at distance from
oura while ten of the inhabitants of the seat of
war will eagerly give information to their leaders
where one will venture give any to ours.

SECESSION WITH A VENGEANcE.-While the Re-
publican papers profess to be terribly opposed to
Secession, they are busy stimulating the secession
of Western from Eastern Virginia. Now, whether
the secession of State from the Union be revo-
luton or not, there is no question about the seces-
sion of portion of one State from another. A
State is a complete and original sovereignty, and
all resistance to State authority is rebellion Last
about this city seeding from the State, we took
occasion to point out this fact. This distinction,
however, is carefully covered up by the Repub
can papers, who wish to make it appear that coun-
ties are just sovereign States. This plan suits
their consolidation, centralized theory exactly.

DowN ON HM-The London Chronicle is down
on Old Abe and his lack of craftsmanship, as COM
pared with the craftsmanship of the South. 1t
winds up vigorous article as follows:
Mr. Lincoln is further now from success against
the South than he was when he started from
Chicago.
As regards Fort Sumter itself, he did the worst
thing he could do. He intended to evacuate it in
few days but sooner than consent to acknowl
edge that South Carolina was rebellious he ex
pressed his intention to send in provisions, by
force, if necessary. He thus gave the South the
provocation and opportunity of brilliant victory
and had to submit to mortifying defeat The
conduct of the Southern Government has, on the
sense. They cluDg to no ictions and were hamp
cred by no legal ignorance of plain facts. They
wanted to leave the Union and they left it. They
wanted to take Fort SUMTER and they took it.
They wished the Border States to join them, and,
by precipitating collision, they seem to have got
t6em-unless, indeed, some unexpected good sense
at Washington prevent them at the eleventh hour.

GEN. GEAUREGARD.--The Northern papers are
still discussing the question whether or not Gen.
Beauregard was killed at the attack on Fort Sum
ter. The Boston Advertiser has half column on
the subject proand con. Several letters have been
written by people, who say they saw him killed,
and some say they saw him buried. Nearly all the
Northern papers incline to the opinion that he aras
killed. and that the report of the fight at Fort Sum-
ter, to which his name was signed, was written by
some one else.
We know they would be glad 10 believe him
dead-but we have the satisfaction of saying that
he "stil vcs,n and that he is at Norfolk, Virginia
prepared to receive any calls that may be matte
upon him. He will make himself felt before this
business is over, or we are much mistaken in the
man,
