ANDERsON-sUMTER.

1t appears from official reports that Anderson's
provisions have run very short his meat tub and
-four barrel not having been replenished for some
time, he will have to evacuate the fort speedily un-
less relieved. He has only about enough supplies
to last this week out. The question of reinforce
ment appears to be abandoned, for according to
Anderson's statement it will require from ten to
twenty thousand men to enable a reinforcement to
be thrown into the fort.
Washington dispatches of the 11th say:
"Tbo National IDtelligencer Of to-day publish
es a long article recommending the REIMBURSEMENT
vf forts Sumter and Pickens as an act Of concilia-
ton, and says that the new Administration might,
BY moving FIRST in the direction Of Cancellation, do
infinitely more to consolidate its power than by
pussively awaiting the progress of events with a
heart prepared for any fate.
1.-THE Times correspondence says 1 heard
distinguished Secessionists confess to night that if
Mr.. Lincoln does withdraw the troops from Fort
Sumter, Secession is dead and every leader in the
movement ruined"
1.-THE Herald's correspondence states that poll
teal circles we're favorably excited Sunday by the
report that the evacuation of Forts Sumter and
Pickins were determined upon in Cabinet council
to night"
"Several Republican Senators repeatedly declar-
ed that such policy was decided upon, while lead
ing Southern Democrats call it a master stroke of
policy"
Of course, whatever is done will be declared "a
master stroke of policy" And ye; the surrender
'or evacuation of the fort will stand out a naked,
undeniable confession Of the inability of the U. S.
Government to reinforce or hold its property in
Charleston harbor. Sumter has for months been
in a state of seige, and an evacuation, however
skilfully conducted, is, after all, an evacuation.

larger quantity Of more substantial material for the

Inaugural
"0n The 4th Of March, 1861, was the beginning
of q new epoch in the history not only Of America,
but Of the world. Abraham Lincoln, called by
the voice of God, as well as by the voice of the
people, to rule over the greatest and freest nation
ofthe world, pronounced his Inaugural Message
to a Republic of thirty millions If freemen. That
message, imbued with FIRE from the affairs of our
patriot fathers, tempered by the genial impulses
of a christian philosophy, will take its rank among
the honored and e9er-to-be revered mementoes OF
our national history. Plain, practical, and patri-
otto, it meets the extraordinary times. Not q
word amiss, not q word too many, and no. a word
out of place, it is the most perfect State paper on
the records of our national archives, save only,
and always, the immortal Declaration OF lnde-
pendence, the Constitution, and Washington's
Farewell Address to his Countrymen, from which
the honest, brave, and patriotic President, derived
his inspiration, approaching the fountain OF all
liberal Government as nearly as it is permitted tc
the stream to approach the fountain"

USELESS TO TRY IT.

The following resolution, reported by the Cor
win committee Of thirty-three, is one Of the ''secu
rites for the future which the wisdom of Congress:
proposes to give the South.
BE IL Resolred, By the Senate and House oil
Representatives of the United States of America
in Congress assembled, two-thirds of both houses
concurring, that the following article be proposed
to the legislatures of the several states, rs al
amendment to the Constitution of the United
States, which, when ratified by three-fourths o!
said legislatures, shall he valid, to all intents and
purposes, as part Of said Constitution, viz:
That no amendment shall be made to the Con-
~stitution which will authorize or give Congress
power to abolish or interfere, within any State,
with the domestic institutions thereof, including
that of persons held to labor or servitude by the
law of said State"
The States never having delegated to Congress
power to abolish State slavery, Of course Congress
does not now possess it, and cannot use it. But
if the States choose at some future time to dele
egate such power to Congress, they can DO it, and
a thousand such amendments as that proposed
cannot prevent it, for if the Constitution should
be thus amended, the power that amended can re-
yoke the amendment whatever it may be.
The idea is preposterous that a score of State
Legislatures, the power of whose members is linn
tied to a few years, can, by a paper declaration,
estop the future action in q certain direction, not
only of all subsequent Legislatures but Of the peo-
pie Of the entire nation through all coming time.
The middle of the Nineteenth century is a poorly
chosen period for the servants OF a sovereign peo-
pie to propose a return to the old doctrines upon
which were based the so-called Interchangeable laws
of the Medes and Persians. The idea of thus ty-
ing the hands Of the Future is ludicrous, for though
they were bound with more convolutions than ex-
listed in the tabled Gordian knot, the sword OF
Popular Sovereignty woull sever the cord at a
single stroke, and demonstrate the fact that the
people will sustain only that government which
recognizes the truth Of the theory that its power
should be derived not from the fathers, or the
grandiathers, or the great grandfathers of the
governed, but from The governed themselves.
Such a proposition as the political bufoon OF
Ohio recommended to Congress and received Its
sanction for, will deceive neither the South nor
the North. Monstrous as it is in doctrine, and
despotic as it would be in practice, it will be as
powerless for harm as was B%unyan's Giant Pagan,
who lay helpless at the door of his den, and gnash-
ed his teeth at those who passed by.

TnE UNDERGROUND RAILRoAD.-The Rev. W.
a book on this subject.
If Mr.. Mitchell's statistics be correct, no less
than twelve hundred slaves are annually conveyed
into Canada; though we cannot but be incredu!ous
as to the amount. They are taken from one friend
to another, and only by night, until the borders
of Canada are reached. Six to twelve miles are
the ordinary journey ola single night. OF course,
such q system must embrace a great msny persons,
and have on organization not unlike that of a
postal department. In Canada it is estimated that
there are now f~orty-fVO thousand fugitive slaves
from the United States. The negroes are q gre
garious race, aud they are disposed to settle in
villages and towns, and to cling together. They
are said to be better farmers Il an the Irish, or
even the Canadian French. The thousand fugi-
tive slaves in Toronto wash linen, make shirts, are
Olacksmiths, bricklayers, carpenters, shoemakers,
painters, ect. There are six colored grocers in
the .own, and there is one colored physician. Ono
fugitive slave is worth q hundred thousand dollars.
But the headquarters Of the negro race in Canada
is Chatham, on the Thames. OF its population Of
six thousand, two thousand are colored. Of the ma
terial prosperity, as we'll as the moral worth Of
the negro race in Canada, we have conflicting &C
counts; naturally enough, as each mans report lie
colored by his prep1ssessions. An accurate and
unbiased statement of their moral, social, mate
rial and sanitary condition would be of considers
BILE value We should be surprised to learn that
this tropical race throve well in the rigorous cline
of Boston Courier.

we had not missed the paper from our exchan-
