ted States, and by the significant fact that
the negro had no voice in the adoption of
the Declaration or the Constitution.
RssOlred That we believe with the i'm
mortal Jefferson, that all republican govern
ments derive their just powers from the con.
sent Of the governed, and are therefore in
favor Of Union depending for its stability
and perpetuity upon the great principles Of
constitutional equality, and the ful6llment
of all constitutional obligations, and firmly
opposed to the Republican doemas Of coT-
solidation and coercion, those twin relics of
despotism. rt
ResOlred, That we endorse the Jefferson
ian doctrine, that every nominee should
possess the following qualifications: Hon.
ssty, Capabiity and Fidelity to principle. 1

political maxim, that a representative 4
bound to obey the wishes Of bis consttu.

unity, fidelity to principle, and adherence
to rules, are essential to the success Of eve.

ST. LOUIS, April 10.
After demand by General Beauregard
'for me ssurreuder OF Fort Sumter, Friday
at noon, and refused By Major Anderson,
an attack was made by the Confederate
'army. l. 49, te
Major Anderson replied BY firing upon
Fort Moultrie andMorFis Island.
A brisk cannonade was kept up on both
sides, on that afternoon and evening. The
walls Of Fort Sumter were much battered
Breaches were made by the shells from
Moultrie, and Morris Island did much exc
cution.
Two Of Anderloa's magazines exploded,
being fred into by hot shot.
Great excitement in Charleston. The
wbarves were lined with people.
The United States ships in the ofing
we're too late to get over the bar. Tide
ebbing.
The roof Of the barracks in Sumpter was
q sheet Of fame
Major Anderson threw out a raft, towed
by men, to pass up buckets Of water to ex-
tinguish the FIRE.
Eleven shots from Sumter penetrated the
floating battery below the water line.
Shots from Fort Sumter knocked down
the chimney Of the officers quarters at Fort
Moultrie.
The vessels in the harbor tried to engage
Morris Island, but were driven back.
Three Of the Sumpter barbette guns
were dismounted.
No one killed up to six o'clock on Satur-
day morning.
On the afternoon Of the 18th the Federal
flag, after being hauled down, was again
hoisted over Sumpter.
Porcher Miles went with flag Of truce
to the fort
The Federal flag drawn taken DOWN.
BY Anderson and flag Of truce run up.
Gen. Beauregard went TO Fort Sumter /;
also, three fire companies, to quench the
FIRE before it reached the magazine,
The firing ceased at I O'Clock P. NJ, on
the 18th, and, half an hour after, an uncon-
ditional surrender was made, the flagstaff
having been previously shot off
Beauregard sent Wigfall with flag, to
offer assistance to put out the IRE. An
derson said that he had just displayed the
white flag, but the barracks had not stop
ped the firing.
Wigfall said Anderson must haul down
the American flag, surrender or light
Anderson hauled down the flag.
1t is stipulated that the surrender was
unconditional, and subject to Beauregards
terms. Negotiations were completed on
the night OF the 18th, and Anderson's com
mand was to eEacuate on the morning of
the l4th, on the war vessels in the harbor.
Five Of Anderson's men were wounded,
one it is thought mortally.
After the surrender, a boat was sent
from the ships outside to Morris Island, re-
questing permission for a vessel to enter
and take off Anderson's command.
Maj. Anderson's surrender was caused
by the destruction Of the quarters and bar
racks, and no hope Of reinforcement.
The feet lay by the fort about 80 hours,
but could not help Anderson. Everything
in Sumter was ruins but the easements
Anderson left last night, the l4th, on
the steamer Isabel, for New York.
