Direct News from Fort Sumter.

New YORK, Feb. 6-The steamer Marion,
from Charleston, arrived to-day. Among the
passengers are wives Of soldiers at Fort sum
ter and seventeen children, who suffered very
severely froM sea sickness during the trip.
They represent the garrison at Fort Sumter
a. in excellent health, not single soldier being
on the sick list. The strongest Union feeling
neryadcd the company, and they looked tor-
ward to an attack with confidence In their
strength and ability to repel anassault. There
are seventy-fye soldiers and thirty laborers,
al of whom are ROW busy in mounting heavy
Columbiads on the ramparts and in the fortress
yard. The majority Of. the soldiers are Of
foreign birth, about half Of them being Irish,
and a large number Germans.
The garrison is now supplied daily with fresh
meats and provisions Of ali kinds, from Charles
ton, although only enough Is brought in for
each days use. The supply Of salted meats
and camp rations is ample for n long siege
No reintorcements had been received when
the Marion left, and from Capt. Adkins' state-
ment, it would appear that great difficulty
would be met In entering the harbor at
Charleston with reinforccments or supplies.
The Charleston volunteers are drilling daily,
and they, with the aid Of laborcrs, are placing
Mou1trie and the other forts in the harbor in
the best state of defence There are about
5000 soldiers now in entrcachments, and their
number is constantly augmented BY arrivals
from the interior OF the State. 1t is repre-
scuted that whatever work is done in the way
of rendering Fort Moultric capable of repcl-
| ing attack, that she cannot be nude to com.
r,and Sumter In any event, or be able to dam
age that fort by her cannonadc.
| The wives and children will leave the Marion
Mt o'clock this afternoon, nn their way te
| Fort Hamilton, where they will remain for the
remainder Of the winter. They are in good
| spirits, and seem to think that their husbands
are perfectly safe in their present situation.

ed parties, that in connection with the Pacific
Line IN earnest and perseyering effort will be
made to extend the telegraphic facilities BY
way Of Oregon, the British and Russian pos
sessions, g., to1 E1fope, the utter failure
the Judgment Of these parties, little Il any
reason to hope for q permanent successful line
to Europe except by way Of Behring's Straits
ut the Intersection Of the Pacific and Arctic
oceans. The United States and several Of the
European governments are confidently relied
upon to favor this worldwide enterprise
WASHINGTON, Feb. G.-Mr Corwln awaits

to be united against compromise.
WASHINGTON, Feb. Gin the peace Con

posing to conduct the proceedings with open
doors. It was earnestly debated The result
was restriction upon Commissioners from
