The Governor of Mississippi communicates the
following information in special message dated ths
10Th inst:
Patriotic citizens in various por.ians Of the State
have extended to me pesuuiary aid Ia armiug the
State The Hon Hal C. Chambers, Of Coshoms,
gave an order for one hundred bales of cotton.
Col. Miles Medhee, and Hon. Chas. Clark, gave
me draft for the proceeds Of the sale Of one hun
dred bales each. Hon. A. G Brown sent me bill
on New York for five hundred dollars. Major John
M. Graves gave me his draft for two hundred dol
lars and Dir. Burwell Scott ais draft for one thou
sand d, liars. Col. r S. Rsyburn, Of Ta,lahatchie
county, has presented to the State one hundred
kegs Of powder
For these sums, when realized propose to re-
turn Auditors warrants, drawn part of the hun
dred sndhfy appropriation for the purchase
Of arms, notwithstanding many Of the gentlemen re-
garded their Offering as donation, and some still

Coercion---SenaIor CriIIenden.

We are pleased to observe that Senator CRIrTEE-
DEN has denied having expressed the obnoxious
sentiments, with regard to coercion of seeded
States, that were reported by telegraph. Such
sentiments could not fail TO have proven detrimental
60 che position for patriotism heretofore erioyed BY
the distinguished Kentucky Senator We take it
for granted that Senator CElTTENDEE means by this
email that he is opposed to any attempt to execute
be revenue laws by force upon any seeded State.
n effort to blockade the ports of Charleston, sa-
Ssnuah, Mobleor New Orleans, with feet, for the
parpose of obstructing their commerce and CON-
pelliug the payment of revenue to Government
from which they have sOlemnly Withdrawn by the
act of their own people, would inevitably pEeoipI-
tate q war between the Federal Government and thC
seeded States, and would, in effect be an act 9
e0ereiOu. which would be resisted by ali the South
ern States. Any effort to collect revenue by force
though the force might be used only against indi,
vidusls, would be war upon the State, and could
not be otherwise regarded. There may be some
who will undertake to make the distinction ou
the people of the South will recognize no such
difference, and will regard such attempt as wal

soE. IseII ON Disupion.

The following extract from Mr.. Bells speech in
the United States Senate in 1850, made familiar
to the people of Tennessee in the late Presidential
contest The position of Mr. Bell on the great Issue
now before the people of State calls fo= ia re-
production.
The question is not whether the States shall con-
tinue united according 70 the letter Of the covenant
by which they are bound together. It is whether
theY sAall continue TO be practically and efficiently
cooperative IN carrying out the great ends Of the
association. The question is, whether mutual trust
and confidence shall continue to animate and en-
courage mutual efforts in promoting and multiply
ing common benefits, or whether mutual haired aud
dstrust shall step in to check all progress dis
tract and confound all joint enesvors for the com
mon welfare in fine, TO entaIl upon the country all
evils of endless disc0rd. That is the question. And
when you present that issue to me, say, give me
separation give me disanon give me ANYTHING in
preference TO a Union sustained only by power BY
Constitutional and legal ties. without reciprocal
trust aud confidence. If future career is to be
Of eternal discoFd, of angry criminston and re-
crlmnatlon give me- rather separation, with all its
consequences. II am to be at pOace let it be peace
in reality; and if / am ~ le at war, let me know it
at once, that Ray put my house in order, and be
ready to meet the consequences.-[Joha Bell IN the

Conditiom Of Fort SUmter

Sergeant GEORGE McFADDEN, formerly soldier
in the United States Army, land who has one of the
lsborers recently sent away from For; Sumter gives
account Of the condition of that fort very differ
eut from what generally obtains The account is
furnished to the New York Post:
'sFort Moultrie was in a much better condition
for defence than Fort Sumter; nearly all the guns
were mounted and everything was in apple-pie or
der, and the in good condition; three days be-
fore We retired from Fort Moultrie Major Anderson
brought from Fort Sumter an apparatus to mount
the remaining guns. This apparatus was left be-
hind at Fort M0ultrie. When We arrived at Fort
Sumpter everything was cold, miserable and unfn-
ished. Fort Sumter has SUs faces to IT, some nine or
ten guns imperfectly,mopnted These guns cannot be
depressed sufficiently to defend the fort They are
mounted for long range shot, and any object within
q mile or mile and half eff this fort it would
be as harmless to it as our present fort on our
battery enflading the channel between Governors
and Elliss Islands would be harmless to the
boats constantly passing it. Fort Sumter has
no provisions. Major Anderson took from Fort
Mouitre some City barrels Of -four and one or two
casks Of other provisions. sergeant and squad Of
men in citizens dress sent ashore to purchase
provisions. They procured some eighty pounds of
beef with vegetables, Sc. The Charleston Vigilaut
Committee would not permit them to take away the
provisions they had paid for, and they threatened
the lives OF the men II they persisted in doipg
Fort Sumter has no fuel, and if they have any at
all it must be by burning what they can find In the
fort to burn. The fort is in q perfect state Of
iRcompleteness, ard as to Major Anderson being
able to defend it-unless be is net attacked-it is
all nonsense. He will be o smarter man than take
him TO be if he can do it against lot of men, Only
give me a hundred determined fellows aud III have
possession of that fort in half hour from the mo-
ment We get on the landing All I'd want is an
additional number CT men 10 carry aud raise the
ladders for the men to scale the walls. Major An
derson never asked the Workmen to stay and fight
under the American flag. If he had done so, /, for
one, would have stuck to him ss long as be had
anything to stick to. On the contrary, ne was NEST
anxious to get rid Of the many extra mouths that
were getting up the provisions he wanted for his
own men. As to all ths statement Of the papers
lbsut his impregnability, it's all bslderdash," &C.
