avail u+ nothing. Baifle.l in every attempt
Of negotiation, the iron arm Of war alone can

the accomplishment Of its purposes should
concentrate every idea and effort Of the au

South Carolina asks the seeding States to
become her confederatcs. God grant that
she enters into no new union, until she her
self, and with her own resources, hauls down
from the lonlning bastions of Fort Sumter the
tlng now Haunting in the breeze. With that
fortress in our possession, we become At nnce

ont it, we Indicate our weakness to the world,
mud proclaim, palmer than pen can write, TT
tongue can speak, our inability TO maintain
that sovereignty which We, will one voice,
declared month ago.
No longer hoping for concessions, let us be

Fort Sumter

Mr.. EDITOR: When Colonel lIayne left
Charleston for Washington, it was generally
understood that the object of his mission was
to demand from the Federal authorities tae
surrender of Fort Sumter to the State OF
South Carolina. Tue telegraplic accounts,
since his arrival at Washington, confirm tlii
belief BY the same channel We learn that
the demand has been made and refused, but
that Fort Sumter would not be reinforced,
and that the present status will be main.
tained. What guarantee has tho State OF
South Carolina that this assurance will Dc
houorably complied with ? None. ! assert,
none. Did not the President pledge himself
to the Representatives in Congress from this
State that no change in the then status of tho
forts would be made? They believed the
President; aud SO did the people Of this State.
What was the result? We all know, and
t!,at too, TO our sorrow. Subsequently, the
President most solunly assured Secretary
Thompson that no reinforccments would he
sent to Frrt Sumter without giving him pre-
vioua intilnation. We again knn~ that this
pledge was lalsified, and that the S'ar Of tie
HeSt, merchant steamer, was stealthily des-
patched from New York, and did sttempt 20

the President elect, and defining the policy
which his Administration intends to pursue.
This article las the merit Of frankness and
bold. outspoken declaration of a fixed pur.
pose. 1t contains no sneaking assurances OF
Mr. Limcoln's love of the South, or of his gen.
erous intentions to protect Southern rights.
1t declares openly and dciiantly that the in
coming Administration will stand firmly by
the Great Verdict of tile 9Th of November, "
and, needless Of the Constitution, the laws,
and the Judgment of the Supreme Court,
will regard the institution which is inseparably
interwovcn with the social. political, and econ.

every word and line Of this defiant prcclama-
ton, and then decide whether you will con.
tinue to cheat yourselves with the hope OF
obtaining recognition of your rights from
the party which thus boldly defies you to
your teeth, and tells you that you must sur
render unconditionaly, or be conquered; Or
whether, joining your strength to that OF your
brethren in South Carolina, Alabama, Missis.
