The SURRENDER OF FoRT SUMTER.--We
give In another column what purports to
be the statement of Capt. Doubleday rela-
tive to the bombardment of Fort Sumter.
The statement was evidently not intended
to give the full particulars, and has proba.
bly, boon considerably mutilated in passing
over several telegraph lines. He makes no
mention of FIVE Of Anderson's men having
been wounded, nor Of the explosion of two
magazines 10 the fort, nor of the Charles
ton fire companies going to Sumter to ex-
tinguish the Games. 1t does not appear
that any serious impression was made on
the walls of Sumter, and it seems unac-
countable that the powder magazine should
be in such an exposed position as to be lla-
bic to be surrounded by fire. The accounts
Of the bombardment, so far as received,
leads to the belief that Anderson's COM
mand were forced to surrender for want Of
food, and that the powder was thrown into
the sea, and the munitions destroyed in Or
der that they might not fall into the hands
Of the rebels Had the fort been fully
manned and supplied with every thing
needful for resisting an attack, the garri-
son might have held out for some time, and
perhaps silenced Fort Moultrie and other
batteries but considering the immense
odds against them, it could scarcely be ex-
pected that the little band would be able to
do more than destroy the interior of the
fort and the munitions of war.

To COUNTY SCRIP HOLDERs.-We desire
TO again call the attention Of holders of
county warrants, TO the notice Of the Coun-
ty Auditor, which will be found on the
fourth page of this paper. There is now a
balance of eight thousand dollars, in the
special fund, which will be surrendered for
county warrants drawn on the general
fund. The money will be awarded by the
Board of Supervisors, to those Offering scrip
at the lowest rates, but no bids can be ac-
cepted under the law for more than the face
Of the warrants. II is probable that county
scrip holders can get very near the face of
their warrants, If they would prefer II to
holding them. Last year only about FIVE
thousand dollars was set apart for the re.
demption of warrants, aud the bids not be-
ing sufficient to take it all up, some two or
three thousand dollars was turned over to
the general fund. Sealed proposals for
the surrender of scrip will be received by
the County Auditor up to Monday next,
the 9th Of May, at which time the lids will
be opened and the awards made.

Carr. DOUBLEDAY's STATEMENT.-On the
arrival Of Major Anderson's command at
New York, Capt. Doubleday, the second Of
6cer, made q statement relative to the bonn
bardment and surrender of Sumter. The
following is the statement as received by
the last Pony:
The demand for the surrender of Fort Sum-
ter was made on the llth and refused, not only
by Major Anderson but by his command. On
Friday morning, at o'clock, the rebels sent
word that the fire would be opened in one hour.
At A o'clock the fire opened in every direction,
including hidden batteries. Anderson's men
took breakfast on salt pork and biscuit. His
command was divided into three watches and
then went to work and opened fire on Moultrie,
Cummings Point and Morris Island. Ander-
son refused to let me work on the parapets on
account of the tremendous fire. Anderson's
fire on MOultrie had terrible effect. Anderson's
barracks caught fire and were extinguished by
the efforts of Hart, of New York, and Lyman,
of the Baltimore volunteers. On Saturday the
officers quarters caught fire from shell at the
main gates and were burned. The magazine
was surrounded by fire. Ninety barrels of pow
der were taken out and thrown into the sea.
When the magazine was encircled by fire, all
their materials were cut off, and they had eaten
their last biscuit two hours before. We had to
lay ON the ground with wet handkerchiefs on
our faces to prevent smothering. A favorable
steady wind was all that saved our lives. The
cartridge boxes gave out and five men were en-
gagged in the manufacture of them out of shirts,
blankets and sheets. 1t will take half a million
of dollars to repair Fort Sumter's interior. Most
of the shots were aimed at the United States
flag. Wigfall demanded surrender without
authority. Anderson pulled down the flag, and
afterwards, finding he had been sold, raised the
flag again. Hart, of N. Y, nailed the colors,
amid the deadly fire of the enemy and the
cheers of the U. S. troops.
The Nevada Democrat., 1861-04-30
Tnr BancknnlDOH CoMMrrrr.-Mr. Cha

The BRRUKNRIDaK COMMITTEE Mr.. Chas.
Liudley, Chairman of the Breckenridge
Committee, has called another meeting of
that body, to be held at San Francisco on
the 7lh inst. The call'is made In accord
ance with the recommendation OF about a
hundred Breckinrldge men, who are anx-
ious for fusion with the regular Democ.
raey. II the Breckenridge Committee will
recall their late address, and denounce the
Confederate States for making war on the
Government with as much vim as they late
ly denounced the North for supposed in
tention to make war on the South, there
may be some hope of fusion. However
political parties may be divided, we do not
believe any one can be elected TO Congress
or to State Office, who is not unequivO-
calIy opposed to secession, and in favor of
maintaining the Federal Union.

NEWS FROM THE EAST.

NEWS FROM THE EAST.
By Pony Express we have dates from st
Louis to April 18th. The Intelligence Il
not of special importance, though OfcOnside'
rable interest as CONFIRMING previous re-
ports.
The Northern States have responded
promptly to the call of the President for
seventy-ive thousand volunteers, but the
Border States. with the exception of Mary
land, side with the rebels. All par ties In
the North support the Government to put
down the rebellion, and companies and reg
iments are forming in the Northern cities
and Offering their services to the Govern
ment. The banks in New York, Phila-
delpha, Baltimore, Boston, Chicago, and
other cities offer money TO the Government.
Danger is apprehended of an immediate al
tack on Washington +; the District of Colum-
bia militia have been called out (; all the
public buildings, roads and avenues are
guarded sentries are posted everywhere,
and preparations made to defend the Capt.
tai. Troops are still pouring into Wash
ington, and accounts from New York, Penn
sylvania, Massachusetts, andzZMaine state
that regiments are already on the way to
the Capital. The Maryland militia offer
their services to the Government, but Gov.
Letcher Of Virginia has replied roughly to
Secretary Cameron's demand for troops,
and says Virginia will fight for the South
if at all. The Virginia Convention had
been holding secret sessions, and reports
from Washington say there is no doubt that
secession ordinance has been passed.
The news of the surrender of Fort Sumter
created great excitement aud strengthened
the war feeling at the South. Companies
are forming in all the seeded States the
Southern banks offer loans to the Confede-
rate Government, and the Border States Of
fer men and money. The reported defec-
tion Of Virginia has greatly elated the Sc
cessionists. JEFF Davis says that seventy
five times seventy-fve thousand of Lincolu's
soldiers cannot .subdue the South, and de-
clares he will march to Washington and
take it in thirty days.
Major Anderson and his command had
arrived at New York on the Harriet Lane,
Pawnee and Pocahontas 1t appears that
the Powhattau had not been at Charleston,
and the Pawnee did not arrive until after
the surrender.
The report received by the previous
Pony, that the seCessionists had been driven
out of the streets of Baltimore, is confirmed;
also, that they had been threatened with
hanging in Philadelphia. In New York,
the Herald Office was threatened and COM
PEELED to hoist the stars aud stripes.
The Nevada Democrat., 1861-04-30

MILITARY MovEMENTs.-The arrival of
Gen. Sumner to take command of the Pacific
Division, and the announcement that Gen.
Johnston had resigned, has created some
little surprise throughout the State. The S.
F. Herald, of Friday last. says, in relation
to the change Of commanders;
We are positively assured by gentleman
who arrived on the last steamer, and was a fel-
low passenger with General f. V. Sumner, U.
S. A., that the presence of General Summer is
owing to information sent forward from per-
sons in this state to the President and men,
bers Of the Cabinet, that there was great dan
ger that California would secede anddeclare an
independent Pacific Republic, that OrganiEa-
tons for that purpose existed in this State !;
that Federal Office holders would refuse to de-
liver their trusts to their appointed successors,
and that General JohRston was suspected Of
either favoring this design, or wilfully shutting
his eyes to- these assumed facts. Il is stated to
US as an absolute fact, General Summer reliev-
ed General Johnston from his command within
one hour after his arrival, and that Captain
Stewart was relieved from the command OF Al
catraz so soon as another officer could be sent
to that fOrtiheation.

Rock. DRILLING MACHNE.-We direct at
tention of miners and others to the adver-
tisoment of VIM. w. Dunn, of San Francis
co. II is claimed that with this machine,
one man can do the work Of four ia the or
binary way. 1t can be worked by one
man, who by turning crank causes the
drill to strike 12O blows a minute. The
machine occupies so little space that two
eau be placed in . tunnel Of vefeet square.
The Nevada Democrat., 1861-04-30

NEW ORLEANS MINT.-The business men
of New Orleans refuse to trust the Mint in that
city. They have sent a considerable amount
of gold, of foreign coinage, to Philadelphia,
says the Press, for the purpose of having it
converted into American coin at the United
States Mint in that city-the reason assigned
for transmitting it there, instead of having it
coined at the New Orleans Mint, being want
Of confidence in the latter institution since it
has fallen into the hands of the Secessionists.
This incident is quite suggestive one, and
shows how much distrust of the disunionists is
felt in the financial circles Of the South.

ELECTION OF CoNGREssMEN.-On Saturday,
the Assembly passed to engrossment the

PHILOSOPHY OF THE DIsUNIoN MOVEMENT.
DE Tocqueville, whose great work on
democracy in America" was published
over thirty years ago, remarked on the
Changers which threaten the American
Union.'
The weak generally mistrust the justice and
the reason of the strong. The States which i'll
crease less rapidly than the others, look upon
those which are most favored by fortune with
envy and suspicion. Hence arises the deep
seated uneasiness and ill-defined agitation
which are observable in the South, and which
form so striking contrast to the confidence
and prosperity which are common to other
parts Of the Union. The inhabitants of the
Southern States are of all the Americans those
who are most interested in the maintenance OF
the Union. They would assuredly suffer most
from being left to themselves, and yet they are
the only citizens who threaten to break the tie
Of confederation. But it is easy to perceive that
the South, which has given four Presidents,
Washington, Jefferson, Madison and Monroe
to the Union; which perceives that it is loosng
its federal influence; the South, which is peo-
Piled with ardent and irrascible beings is becom-
ing more irritated and alarmed. The citizens
reflect upon their present position, and remem-
Der their past influence, with the melancholy
uneasiness of men who expect oppression. If
they discover a law of the Union which is not
unequivocally favorable to their interests, they
protest against it as an abuse of force, and If
their ardent remonstranees are not listened tn,
they threaten to quit an association which loads
them with burthens, whilst it deprives them of
their due profits.
If the foregoing had been written in OK
planatiOn of the present secession rebellion.
1t could not have been more to the point.
