CHARLEsToS, Jan. l2.-Mr. Gourd;n "a
member of the State Sovereign Conren-.
ton, went to Fort Sumter this morning, to
! have u private interview with Maj. Ander-
SON. All kinds of ranrors prevail as to
the cause of sending truce by South
Carolina, last night. Some say that a dis
affection exists among Mai Auderson's
men; others that surrender is contem-
plated, and that he will eYGcuate. These
are only given as rumors, but your repor-
ter has reason to believe on good authors
~, which credit the opinion that negotia-
lions With Washington are now going on
for peaceful surrender of Fort Sumter,
and a sessaEiOn of the warlike attitudes
hitherto maintained.
