PORT SUMTER.

II. as is predicted with some confidence by
our Washington correspondents, Fort Sumter Is
TO be evacuated, no doubt the humiliation will be
great, aud the order for such movement viii be
given BY the Government with regret quite
equal to that with which the people will receive
tue tidipps. Bat let it be borne in mind that
this humiliation comes, if it must come, not from
any negligence or feebleness Of the present
Administration; that il s not an EVIL
dence of retreat from a wen-dchned
and strong positions; that it is conces-
sion neither to the Rebel power of the South nor
10 the timid expostulatiOns If the few in the
North whose counsels are weakness; but that it
is one Of the last bitter drops in the cup lett in
our hands by the Government which has so long
weighed us down, aud which has now hardly
passed out of our sight, The evil which Administra-
tons, as well as men, do, lives after them, and
We must expect to feel tie curse. The duPicty,
the mean scbeming, the inconceiyabe baseness
which have brought us to the present couplica-
ton of our national affairs cannot lose their
poison at once
The people will be prepared il this withdrawal
Of troops takes place, for yell of exultalon
from every traiior in the land, for taunts and
swelling Observation-Disclosures from the men who
have labored more earnestly than any others for
the destruction of the Union by crying out for
concessions and compromises; but let all remem-
Der that the strength has not yet departed from
our flag, and that this movement may
be only as the crouch which is to pre-
cede tie decisive leap. No matter if
the treason which has woven around us its tolls
compels step which no one wishes TO take; no
matter if Rebellion seems TO have advanced its
banners, or if Treason turns more confidently
toward us its brazen front. The policy of the
Government remains unchanged, and its firm foot
ia iust as immovable as ever on the Constitution
| and the laws.
In case the predicted event happens, the people
will place on the proper heads the responsibility
Of the act. They viii follow the late President
| to his retirement with sharper indignation than
| they have before felt; they WILL moreover, ask,
| with an earnestness which calls for reply, why
the repeated assurances went forth from the
beleagured fort that the commanding officer
needed no aid, no supplies; they will demand
from all who have borne part in the trausac-
tiOns of the past two months with relation to
this important place strict account Of their
stewardship. They will none the less renew
their confidence in the power they have set over
them at the National Capital, aud will by that
confidence strengthen the hands of the Admins
traton for vigorous action in the future and
forward.

CONTINGENT LOYALTY.

We never imagined, when we rendered implicit
and unqualified obedience to the long series Of
Presidents whose election we had vehemcntly OPP
posed, that We were doing any favor to those
magistrates, nor TO the party which supported
them. We understood that we were doing our
simple duty-that which the Constitution Of our
country and the genius of Republican institutions
imperatiyely required Of US. Our right to oppose,
at all fature elections, the policy to which those
Presidents were respectively committed was un.
doubted; but right to resist their assumption
and discharge of the functions of the Office to
which they had been consttutiOnally elected was
never dreamed Of We could no more have said
to our political opponents, "If you will do this
90 or that or refrain from doing this or that, We
"will recognize and respect your accession 10
"pOwer," than we could have cOnspircd to over
throw the. Government entirely. In fact, We cs-
teen the ayowed Nulfer the straighto Seccs-
sionst, as every way more consistent and resPecta-
bic than the qa0s Cnionist who tells us that he is
opposed to Secession prOridcd President LincOln
eschews coercion and will not attempt to collect
the revenue in the states that claim TO have &C.
ceded.
How can the President do thus Even if we
disregard the plain requirements OF his official
OATH how il the Government to exist without
revenue! Aud how can it have revenue if I'M
ports are 20 be admitted 10 the ports along one
half our Atlantic and Gulf coast without pay
ment of duty! Suppose the President were to
undertake TO please his dear friends Of the Bor-
der-State and Douglas pattern by forboarng to
collect the duties on imports in the Cotton or
Gulf States how leng would there be any reve-
me at ALL Who toes not see that all the i'm
ports-at least nearly all-wOuld be entered at
the favored ports, and that the others would be
deserted Better at once give up tho Federal
Government rs an exploded humbug than attempt
to carry il on with half on ports open to foreign
goods without payment OF duty, or at least with.
out paying any into the Federal Trcasury.
No there is, there can be, no halfway -hou,e
between obedience and defiance, loyalty and
treason. IF the Federal Administration is en-
titled to the fealty and obedience of one State,
Of one citizen, il is Of each aud all II it is en-.
titled TO be Recognized at all, it is entitled 10 be
deferred to and obeyed as those of Washington
Adams, Jefferson, &C., have be"n-to be obeyed

graduation on the North and restore the in
solent domination of tho SoutbT II is a very
fine thing to say to man who has MEM
DRY, Hereafter forget that Freedom ever was
{" in daDger;" but such exhortations, 20 far from
being satisfactory. fill us with doubts and fears,
and prepare us TO see Freedom not only forgot
ten, but also delivered up, bound, BY men who
have made great regulations by using her name.
To one who has political aspirations it is well
to say. +" Let it not be said that the Republican
"party won its frst, last, and only victory over
+" the dissolution of the Union" But plain men
are unable to see that the Republicans hare won
their victory over the dissolution of the Union,
or that the sentiment expressed is anything more
than sentiment, unless it be an accusation. Such
words either mean something or nothing. They
either have behind them a settled plan of polit-
zeal action or they are vague and sentimental
generalities entitled to no respect. If they imply
policy, the people desire tQ know what that
policy ia. If they represent a mere aspiration,
they can have no better effect than to ipjure tho
one who uttcrs them.
