con:pany had yesterday morning teen pro
scented with Il handsome stand o! coiors by
the ladies of Alexandria, and were out Gel
ehra:ing The twentieth anniversary of their
organization. After marching sume time
they proceeded 10 cal! upon NJ. Snyder, Esq,
ltheir first captain, WIG, appearing upon
the piazza. said:

The company then cutcred the house, where
Refreshments had been prepared, and all .loln-
ed heartily in doing justice to the good things
before them.
During Captain Snyder's remarks, one of
the company, overcome by fatigue, swn"ned
and fell to the ground, but was soon restored
10 consciousness BY his comrades.
After spending some lime in the enjoyment
Of Capt. Snyder's hospitaltIcs, the corps
marched down the avenue, and went through,

HERALD TUESDAY APRIL lsslaTRIPLE0 SHEET

THE DAILY NEWSPAPER Pass OF New
York on THE CRIsls.-Is MAJoa ANDERSON
TRAIToR?- We publish to-day the opinions OF
our daily coten poraries Of this city on the
Presidents war proclamation. Our military
chieftains Of the Courier and Tribune are jnb-
laDt; the little whpsters of the Times aud the
pcmpous little Purtans OF the World seize the
occasion to ventilate their petty malice aud
spleen against their neighbors; the moral re-
formers Of the journal Of Commerce are in
very melancholy frame OF mind aud argue that
both sides are to blame, especially the hot
spurs of the South and the administration At
Washington and SO on We spread all these
various views and opinions before our readers,
as indicating the various shades and colors OF
public opinion in this metropolis. We hold
that the discussion of the RICH. aud the wrong
in this matter, and the constimtionality Of this
thing, that thing or the other, would be now
mere waste of time. The actual presence of
war cuts short all debate and closes the argu-
ment The United States are standing in the
altitude of war against the Confederate States,
and in this attitude there will be now but one
party, one question, one issue, one purpose, in
the Northern States-that OF sustaining their
government.
But the most remarkable, uncalled for and
unjust editorial, as we believe, that we have
seen for many long years, is the indig-
nant and elaborate argument which we
copy from the Courier and Enquirer,
and the object of which is to show that in the
matter of Fort Sumter Major Anderson has
made himself "the vilest traitor the world ever
saw" Our opinion is that Major Anderson
has proved himself brave and faithful officer
Mr.. Lincoln seems to be satisfied with his
conduct, and the President is, perhaps, better
qualified to form Q correct judgment in the
case than even our Wall street co.emporagy
with all his learning and experience in mill
tary affairs. That Major Anderson is humane
man, and wished, as far as possible, to avoid
the shedding Of the blood of our Southern
brethren, is probable; but we cannot believe
that he has undergone in the service Of the
United States all his labors and prtvations since
December last, and all the hardships and dan
gers of q bombardment of thirty hours mere
ly to prove himself traitor. Let him and his
officers and men be heard before he is COZ
demned.

Lincoln has proclaimed TO the country, that
''the first service assigned to the forces called
forth, will probably be to repossess the forts.
places and property, which have been seized
from III. Uu'nD," Including, if expecient, those
government devolved" upon him. THIS will be
equivalent 70 a blockade of a large portion OF
the Southern barbors, and will entirely destroy
Southern con merce. The cost OF such an en-
terprise will be enormous--one hHadred aud
fifty millions Of dollars, perhaps, during the
first year-but this cannot be avoided Ia one
respect, New York city will reap FROM this vast
outlay an advantage, as most of the money will
be expended here The prospect for the Sc
coded States is however, gloomy ia the ex-
treme. Without a navy; destitute of capital;
with no credit; commerce and trade cut off;
necessary manufactures excluded, it is clear
that period of darkness and misery awaits
them.
The time has passed for such public peace
meetings, in the North, as were advocated, and
might have effected some beneficial result,
few weeks since. War will make the Northern
people a unit Republicans look upon it as
inevitable, and democrats have been gradually
becoming disgusted at the neglect and ingrati-
tude with which they have been treated by
section, for which they have faithfully borne
the heat and burtben Of conflict, for so many
years. Fire-eaters have accustomed Themselves
to adopt an indiscriminate tone of hostility,
towards citizens of the non-slaveholding States,
which would have, long ago, alienated their
friends. but that the party attachment Of the
latter has been founded upon principles, not
recklessly to be abandoned.
The policy adopted by Mr.. Lincoln, as set
forth in his proclamation, and his speech to the
Virginia Commissioners, is, on the whole, ap
proved by the masses in the community. 1t
cannot harm the North eventually; and, if the
damage it may inAict upon the South is TO be
regretted, it will be none the less well, if i.
