TOREl1H APPOINTMENTS.
The appointments os Charles Francis
Adams as Minister to Epgland, Of WIN. l..
Dayton as Minister TO France, and OF George
=. Marsh as Nj mister to Sardinia, give gene.
raj satisfaction among conservatives, while
few OF the more radical Republicans are not
over pleased. Mr.. Adams will prove
worthy successor of his grandfather and OF
bis father, who occupy high position on the
records of our diplomacy, aud he will be
enabled to dispense proper hospitality, as
Mrs. Adams--a sister OF the late Mrs.
Edward Everette--is daughter Of Peter g.
Brooks, Boston millionaire.
EVACUATION OF FORT SUMTER.
1t is not probable that President Lincoln
will withdraw the forces from Fort Sumter.
Very good authority exists for believing that
he has not, for moment, seriously contem-
plated doing So though he has been anxious
20 give fair hearing to his Cabinet on the
subject, and the better to understand the
views Of each has sought their opinions in q
written form. This question has been diffi.
cult one to settle, but the fact that the
withdrawal of oior Anderson would have
the appearance Of virtual surrender and be
a species Of acknowledgment OF a legal power
! 10 the South, which the President by his
oath, is forbidden to entertain keeps matters
precisely where they are. Had the Admins
! tra,ion determined TO give up Fort Sumter
! they might as well entertain negotiations with
/ the Commissioners Of the Southern Congress
| By an order OF the Military Superintendent
NJ nior a nderson is directed, in tho regular
! course of his service, to leave Fort Sumter al
| the end Of June, aud will be then transferred
| to the barracks at Newport, Kentucky, fol
! the recruiting service of the Western De
partment.

post route agents have just been dismissed

The Republican says Of the disunion efforts
Of Roger A. Pryor and his associates -
I'VE have no belief that this thing will
have an end, until these Democratic demago
eniug for twenty years, are put down by colt
steel and cold lead. The mischief has come
to such head, that it must emo in q collision
Of arms in the bosom Of the South itself
The people of that region have too mucl
energy and too much courage, to be made
slaves of by Roger a. Pryor and Roger A
Pryor's associates. The war is inevitable
nd will come before the year is out"
