NEW York, March 25.-Tho Herald's

NEW '1pkA5 MaEcn Z0.-l0e Herald
Washington correspondent says:
1t is believed that the programme of the
administration in regard to the evacuation
of Fort Sumter has been altered since the
departure of Col. Lamon. 1t is now report
ed that the evacuation is to be conditional
Lamon is to examine the stock of provisions
and if the supply is insufficient to maintain
the troops now there, he will deliver the
Presidents orders to Major Anderson to
vacuate the Fort.
1t is said that the government has re-
ceived adyices that Texas has sent Commits
sioners to New Mexico, Arizona, Sonora,
and Chihuahua,to induce the people thereof
to join a Southern COnfederacy and the mis-
sion it is said is regarded favorabIy.
Dispatches from Fort Pickens state that
the garrison IS short of provisions and can
hold out but a short time. None but Off
cial communication is permitted at Pensa-
cola and the squadron can neither rein
force the Fort or furnish supplies.
Appearances indicate that the govern
ment will, before long, be compelled to aban-
don Fort Pickens to the Secessionists.
The Herald's dispatches say that Dr.
Lieb of Illinois has been nominated Marshal
of Dacotah 7. Bigelow Lawrence of Boston
is to be Consul General at Florence.

Who Swindles the Soldier.


This is question that should be answered
with caution, but one which should, never.
theless, be decided as soon as the facts can
be ascertained 1t is easy to grumhle, to
fnd fault and to accuse. 1t is not, always,
go easy to decide whether the censure falls
on the guilty parties. We certainly have no
interest in defending either State or Nation>
al Administration, any further than they act
in accordance with the principles for which
we contended when urging the election Of the
present governing powers. We are under no
obligations to them other then to commend
their honest and upright action, and to cor.
denim dishonesty, speculation and fraud
whenever it can be fairly proven against any
member of the State or National Adminis>
tioD. The Democratic" party died of its
own inherent corruption. All it's party or
gans defended the swindlers, and endeavor-
ed to shield the perpetrators Of crime because
they were of the party. The Republican or
any other party will fall assunder whenever
it neglects to seek out and expose yillainy
when perpetrated by any in whom it has
placed confidence. We warn our political
friends against any attempt to cover up ini-
quity for the sake of party. Wed not wish
to belong to any association which defends
those who take advantage of great public
calamities, like the present war, to ELL their
own pockets. When such course becomes
necessary. count US out.
The soldiers of Pennsylvania have been
swinded. This il evident Governor Curtin
being at the head of the State government,
falls under censure for this. IL is charged
that the soldiers are poorly fed, which is not
nor never has been to any extent, true. The
food furnished them here and elsewhere has
been good, and in sufficient quantities: The
discomfort on that head has been greatly ex.
aggerated and urged on by the tories, who
seek to Greats all the discord they eau. In.

Stephen A. Douglas.
a psIEr SKETCH OF MS LIFE.


He commenced his career in cabinet ma
ker's shop, from which he entered several
academies of learning, and having removed
to the state of Illinois when very young,
where year after be was admitted to the
bar, when not yet twenty years of nge, he
was elected by legislature attorney general
Of that state, In December, 1885, he was
elected member Of the legislature of Illinois
where be commenced that career as parlia-
mentarian and debater for which he since
became so eminently distinguished. In 1897
he received the nomination for Congress, at
time when be was not yet twenty five
years old, but attained the requisite age be-
fore the day of election-and was defeated
by wing candidate by majority IF only
fire votes. In 1910, Mr.. Douglas was ap-
pointed Secretary of the S ate of Illinois. as
recognize on of the services he rendered hi5
party during the political struggles of that
year. In l84l, the legislature elected him q
Supreme Judge Of that State, which position
he resigned in l843 to accept second NOM
ination for Congress. and was elected after
spirited contest Of small majority. In
1874 he was reelected, but did not take his
seat. having been il the mean time chosen a
United States Senator by the legislature OF
his state. In the House of Representatives,
Mr.. Douglas gained great prominency for
his support of the $40 policy of the Polk
administration his vote and speeches in fa-
vor of the annexation Of Texas, and other
decided measures of the Democratic admin
istration, then in power. He was chairman
of the Committee of Territories which repor-
ted the joint resolution for the admission Of
Texas, and after this admission, supported
James X. Polk during the war with Mexico
and all his peculiar zeal and mental might
and rower. AS chairman on the Committee
of Territories in the House OF Represents
tives, and afterwards in the Senate, he re-
ported bills for the admission OF the territo-
ries of Minnesota, Oregon, New Mexico,
Utah, Washington, Kansas and Nebraska,
and also the bills for the admission into the
Union of the states Of Iowa, Wisconsin, Cal
iforn;a, Minnesota and Oregon. On the
question Of slavery, he opposed the interfer-
ence of Congress in the organization of ter

ing Of Perote the occupation Of Puebla the
negotiations carried en- while the enemy res
ted awhile at his latter place; the battle of
Coutreras the fall of San Autonia; the
bloody aston of Churubusco; the fight at
Moline de- Rsy The bombardment aRd stor-
ming of ths almost inaccessible Chapultepec;
and the final triumphant entrance intl the
capital of Mexico; in all these masterpieces
of military execution, the head and the hand
of the commander>in-chief are seen, and
place him at once among the great successful
military heroes of modern times.
General Scott was now virtually the Gov
ernor of Mexico, and he became sole director
Of public affairs. His position was novel and
difficult in the extreme. Alone he performs
ed the duties of Commander-in-c Presi-
dent of the country, Secretary of the Treas
ury. Ia no respect did he fail, and in no
respect did he come short Of the highest ex-
pectations Of his government.
On the establishments Of peace General
Scott returned in triumph to his home, to re
ceive the congratulations of his friends and
the thanks of his countrymen.
In 1852, General Scott received the regu
lar nomination of the Wbig party for the
Office Of President of ths United States. He
failed being raised to that high honor, and
his place was filed by the regularly nomina-
ted Democratic candidate.
Shortly after this he received the appoint
ment Of lieutenant General of the Army of
the United States, an Office just created by
Congress, and which has been filed by no
other. 1t is the highest military ofice in the
United States army, and General Scott has
since filed it with the the most eminent
ability.
In 1859, General Scott was sent 5y the
government TO Washington Territory to ad-
just the ficulties relative to the occupation
of San Juan Island, 10 Nuggets sound, mis-
sion which he executed with great sagacity
and success.
Since the accomplishment of this great
work. Gen. Scott has resided ct the Capitol
of his country, actively dischargiug the du-
ties ofhis important Office, winning The ap-
probation of his government, and securing
the good opinion Of bis fellow citizens.
Here his life seemed passing to a quiet and
peaceful close. embazoned with halo of
glory. But such was not the Divine ordin-
alton. The serious troubles which for the
past few months have been unhappily dis
tracing the country, have again called him
to arms and the councils cf the natior.-
Here. at the age of sereafy-ffUe years, he
shows himself the great, calm, strong mind
he has ever been in all important emergen-
cles His counsel in the cabinet, and his far
reaching aud comprehensive sagac!ty in the
management of the armies of the government
show that the vigor of his intellect has not
abated jot, and the elasticity and indu-
rance of his gigantic frame have not dimin-
ished under the burden of years.
