Spirit Of the Morning Press.


The Iass0igszesr argues that the taxes and tariff
Of the seeding states have opened the eyes Of the
people to what they must expect in supporting
their new Government, and that spirit of dissat-
isfaction has already been engendered among
the people with regard to the ability and past
course OF their leaders.
The RspEbliean says Of the resolution offered by
Mr.. Foster:
The expulsion Of poor wigfall at this late
day, because be 10 less cautious In his language
than other Senators who hold to the same
and who are much more dangerous, would seem
like Tying at rather small game; and as he Is
greatly amusing, and withal comparatively HARM
less, we are opposed TO giving him any greater
notoriety, or exalting him into a martyr"
An UNEXPECTED HITcH.-Tbe secessionists here
have been eagerly expecting the arrival OF ex-
Gov. A. B. Roman, Of La, the third so-called
Commissioner from tie so-called Southern Con.
fsderacy; threatening to the knife on the par,
OF the seeded states, to commence very shortly
after his arrival, when the Government of the
United States shall have declined to recognize
them In amy other capacity than that of distin-
guished citizens Of the States In which they re-
spsctively reside.
We fancy that II they await the appearance o.
Ex-Governor Roman here on any such GRAND q,
that devolved On him, they will hardly be graft

The New Orleans Trrs Della, staunch Unior
paper, gives the world to understand that the
venerable Ex-Governor will come hither In NJ
such car acity. He was a Union member of the
late Louisiana Convention, and though signing
the ordinance Of secession, 10 believed since, Il
have heartily repented Of that act Of indscretion
Nor So.-Some OF the news papers are stating
That Mr.. w. w. Lester, one Of the most eficien
and respected clerks of the Interior Department

the best work on the land laws, regulations and
decisions Of this Government, has been removed
This Is untrue
When body Of blstherskiting secessionists In

Intention to resign on the advent of the new
Administration, Mr.. l.. very properly refused tc
append his name to II; that not being his way Of
doing such things.
He, however, resigned his appointment in the
Interior Department on the 4th inst, before the
Installation Of the new Secretary into office. Out
OF that fact the story Of his removal was, doubt
less, manufactured.

The ChRrIestOn Press on the Prospective
Evacuation of Fort Sumter Their Grat-
i1lcatiOn Mt the Anticipated Event-The
War Preparations at that City.
The Charleston papers seem quite delighted
at the prospect of getting possession of Fort
Sumter withouta fight and the Mercury of
the 18th inst. says:
The intelligence contained in our tele-
graphic column to-day will crafty our
readers. Sumter is to be ours without a
fight. All will be rejoiced that the blood of
our people is not to be shed in eur harbor
in either small or great degree. To those
who have troubled themselves with vague
fears of war on q large scale, and the horrors
OF war extensively, the relief will be as
great as the apprehension has been grievous.
For ourselves, notwithstanding all the
Northern thunder, we have never been able
to bring ourselves seriously to believe in the
probability of any more than few collis-
ions, sufficient to show that we are in earnest
and competent TO make good our position
of independence against our would be mas
tiers.
The Charleston Courier, which is not SO
certain of the result, says:
While we regard the dispatch as entirely
reliable, it is needless to add that until it is
confirmed and carried out by actions and
results, there will be and should be no inter-
mission or relaxatioDs of our preparations.
which have progressed rapidly and faVorably
for several days.
The Courier has the following account of
the preparations for war:
We are gratifed in being able to state
that the batteries on the ship channel, which
are of the heaviest kind, are now ia high
state of preparation, and ready for almost
any force that may attempt to enter our
/ harbor. We believe the reinforcement of
Fort Sumter by the Government at Wash
ington now to be an impossibility. Our
troops on Morris Island and Sullivan's
Island are IN very fine spirits, and in thor
Ough drill. 1t is estimated that there are in
all about 5000 men at the different foTti6ca-
tions, ready for any emergency. 20 &
We hear that Governor, Pickens has eco
kegs Of powder on the way, which were
shipped from Wilmington on Monday morn
ing for this city, having just arrived there
from the North. A bill of lading for 2, 700
other kegs of powder from the North, per
order OF Governor Pickens, was also re-
ceived at Wilmington on Monday morning
making in all $500 kegs of powder. Two
heavy ten inch mortars from Richmond
ordered by Governor Pickens in addition TO
those already arrived, were shipped from
Wilmington on. Monday morning on the
North. eastern Railroad. Also, 400 nine-inch
shells, and large amount Of shot, &c. s

AETEoEDENTs OF MRs. GoRE, THE NOVELIST.
p A friend of the late Mrs. Gore sends to the
AtheRsHh few notes on the family of that
brilliant and unknown parsonage. Mrs.
East Retfofd, and her father was a partner
with Mr.. Carbonell, in the wine trade. Mrs.
Gore succeeded, it is said, to good property
about eleven years ago, on the death of the
Rev. Charles Rally, of Grantham, a cousin of
her mothers. This inheritance would ae
count satisfactorily for the ample style in
which the deceased novelist lived, with little
or no call on her pen in the latter years of
her life ! about which ample and easy life
there was more or less Of an Innocent and
pleasant mystery always kept encouraged,
perhaps, by some whimsy Of the lady herself
for carrying plot and interest into the COM
monplace of her own life.

was served on massive silver. gilt dishes and

on his arm; what waste of trufles it is
to stuff partridges with themp to which, in
that sharp, thin voice so peculiar to Paris.
ieTinss, she answered, VI wish, for my part,
they would stuff them with truffles of gold
that would be worth being squeezed to death
for "Dss tTte6fes dbriF I shall not easily
forget the tone in which the wish was ex-
pressed. i looked back at the speaker she
was very young woman, extremely fair
and gentle looking, but with, at the same
time, Keen, sordid light in the eve that

A WILD MALAY IN LIMBo.-The ship Benz.
Tucker, which arrived at New Bedford, Mass,
on Saturday, from the Indian Ocean, had on
board native Of those seas, a Lascar or Ma

acted like a wild man. On one occasion he
tried 70 kin the crew by throwing lance at
peak" Of the vessel, where he bade defanes
for time. He was finally captured BY being
hooked by the arm with. a boat hook, and
placed in eask, receiving his food through
the bunghole. He is at present at the Gem

Charleston, S. o., and the commander Of the
EsmsrGlda, which conveyed the women and
children from Fort Sumter to the steamer
Marion, was well acquainted with Byron and
Shelley. When Byron was in Venice, An
