From our own correspondent
On ~ vSrox Tanuorv o. 1871
MR.. HRECI6INRIDGE ON THE BOR.
DEE SrATE..

MR.. BRECKENRIDGE on THE BOR-
DER STATES.
IN speech in the United States Senate
recently, Mr.. Breckenridge said:
lie wanted Kentucky and tic other slave
States to understand what they have to ex-
rect in the present state Of the dominant
party as represented in Congress, They
have nothing offered for their acceptance,
save that they will not abolish slavery in the
States. lie then reviewed the short address
made by Mr.. Seward, to party of friends
who called upon him, to show that that
gentleman advanced subtle, dangerous aud
demoraizing policy, to Slight the question of
distinctive republican principles or the more
popular question Of the Union. Was it now
the policy of the republican p>rty under the
name Of devotion to the Union, to form a
Union party expressly in the border slave
States, backed By the Federal Government,
with view to secure the triumph Of free
soil principles?
The ideaessentially leads to thee enamel
patton of slavery. lie warned these States
that this is the policy to be pursued, and if
it is permitted to be carried out, it will re-
suit in nothing less than emancipation in
those States. AS to Kentucky she fingers
and holds back yet for a settlement 1t
would be presumptuous in him to say what
she should do, but she understands this is
sue and is determined to have her constitu-
tional rights; and soon, very soon, from peak
to peak, and from mountain top, will be
heard the clear cry for constitutional jus
tice. She will not lay her bright and beam
ing forehead in the dust, but turn to her
Southern sisters. Intercourse, commerce
and common wrongs will compel her to unite
and form mighty republic with States
which will keep the faith of compacts.

FORT SGMpTER,

All accounts confirm the report that the
Lincoln Administration has determined up
on the evacuation of Fort Sumpter. The
National Lfeli'genccr-a sort of quasi organ
llth, SAVE, ..... .
"Late last evening we learned that in a
Cabinet meeting on Saturday it was deter
mined to evacunte Fort S1mpter. If the
news is correct, of which We have no reason
to doubt, this measure has been taken as
one of Cancellation to the Border States
The fort has no strategetic importance, aud
it may have been supposed that the yielding
a point of pride TO South Carolina could
very well be ofordcd by great Govern
ment would satisfy the country generally
of the pacific policy of the Administration,
aud enable it, without the appearance of
coercion, to he more stringent in the en-
forcement of the revenue laws.
A purpose to conciliate the Border States
aud retain them in the Union as a nucleus
for gathering around it, the parts that have
gone off, and also of setting on foot in those
States a system of gradual emancipation,
was an idea which was doubtless taken into
account by the Administration in forming
its decision to abandon the Fort But this
was not the only reason. According to the
most reliable accounts these is but limited
supply of food and provisions in the Fort
and its replenishment is dependent wholly
upon the grace of theConfederate States;
courtesy which it is not probable they woulc
think it wise to exercise towards govern

had not supplies enough to last twenty days
and Senator Wigfall stated that he had bee

REPLY OF SECRETARY THOMPSON.

OXFORD, MISS, March 9, 1861
To the Editors ofthe National Inteligcncer:
In your issue of March 9Th, find let
ter of the Hon. Joseph Holt, dated March
5th, which was read by me with some sur
prise as have heretofore regarded him as
an honorable man. On the 3D. and Eth of
January in reply to heterogeneous from
Judge Longstreet of South Carolina, a de-
voted Christian, and man OF peace, | tele-
graphed 20 him that no achievements had
been ordered to Fort Snmpter, and in my
opinion would be sent, if the authorities of
that State would refrain from an attack on
the fort. Judge Longstrcet thereupon ad-
dressed written appeal to the Governor
and those officials associated with him, bas-
ing his argument on this information, to
withhold the first blow. 1t had its effect
| no attack was made. On the morning of
| the 9Th the Constitution newspaper con-
tanned telegraphic dispatch from New
! York, that the Star of the West had sailed
from that port with two hundred and ffty
soldiers on board, bound for Fort Sumter.
This was the very first intimation l had re.
celved from any quarter that additional
troops had been ordered or sent. This in
formation to me was not ''ofiicial" It wa.
a fact conveyed with electric speed to ever,
part of the Confederacy, known to be true
by every well-informed man in the city o
Washington, as soon as known by me-
While engaged in writing my resignation il
the presence of Judge Black, then Secreta
ry of State, dispatch was received from
Judge Iongstreet making inquiry as to tn
sailing of the Star of the West with add
tional troops. Honor, truth, Justice to my
self and Judge Longstreet, required of m
the reply made-that the Star of the Yves
had sailed with re-inforcements, aud ough
then to be in Charleston. | make tn

Democratic Principles.

The New York Herald says that the De-
mocratc party was "shivered to pieces be-
cause it struck hands with the extreme men
of the South and became pro~slavery par
ty." We may add that the distinctive
principles of State Rights and Free Trade
which formed the basis of that party still
live, and will be pcrpetuated in the admin
istration of the Government of the Confed-
crate States. They are indcstructable.-
