ment, and who may have no means Of sub

A day or two ago, in the House of Repre-
sentatives, Mr.. Dawes, of Massachusetts,.
urged that colonel somebody be admitted
to seat in that body rs o represents tive
from Arkansas He was very desirous, he
said, that the colonel should be admitted as
a member of Congress; among other things
because he had brought letter ofintroduc
ton from General Steele who is understood
to command q Union army in that region.
This presents significant point If persons
are to be admitted members of Congress,
on the word of military commander. 1t
was kind in the general only to send let
ter. One of Cromwelps or Napolean's OH
GERS might have come himself What would
Mr. Dawes do in the presence Of steel in

of the legislators who succumb or those
who fly when legislatures are dispersed at

pertinent since who can tell how soon the
government of the country may be attemp
ted by military 50 traps. -Word. 2"a

The Opposition to LincOln's
Reformation.

The opposition to Linculn's re-nomina
tion is every day gaining strength in the
Black Republican party. The New York
Ledger, the most widely circulated paper
| in the United States, which has subscrip
ton of several hundred thousand, says:
ut is generally understood that Abra-
ham Lincoln is quite anxious to serve an
other term in the White House, and tina,
his friends are working late and early to
secure him the nomination of his party
We hope be won't get it. We have moth
ing against Mr.. Lincoln personally; but a
person who can quietly sit and crack jokes
in the White House, while he permits an
old fossil like Secretary Welles to manage
the Navy Department, is not the sort OF
man that We admire. The mere fact that
Mr.. Lincoln has kept old Mr.. Wellss in
Office while our commerce is being ruined
by rebel privateers, will cost him Thousands
of votes if ever he comes before the people
again as q candidate for the Presidency"
Wilkes New York Spirit of the Times,
spicy and favorite Republican paper,
says: r1
1t behooves the liberal party, however,
and all who would protect the country from
the dangerous precedent of second term,
to take immediate measures to construct a
fresh National Committee outside of the Sc
ward and Lincoln machine that it may
proclaim an election of delegates to a ne v
Union National Convention, for the naming
of candidate for President. Lincoln 4
Co., who are now conservatives. and who
have purchased the old Republican track

Clellan as subordinate balance for their
ticket By the course We suggest healthy
organization can be put on foot, and an Al
ministration worthy of the country may be
chosen. Without such independent organ
ization Lincoln will walk over the course.
for he has already bought up the old Com
mittee; but with truly popular expression,
his chances will be reduced to nothing
The country is all right in tone. It has been
willing to laugh at Mr.. Lincoln's jokes for a
season; but now that the true strain of our
institutions is approaching, it requires cour.
age ard decorum in the chair of State.
For our part, We believe the people will,
in this matter, meet with the relief they
wish. We can conceive how popular tn.

How Near Fort Sumter Came
Being Captured Last August
BY Our Fleet...The Danger
from Powder.

Items about Fort Sumter gathered from
the official report of the Inspector General,
and incorporated in the correspondence Of
the Mobile Tribune, may be enumerated as
follows: - - - - ..4
The garris on of the fort was 500 men of
the Est South Carolina Artillery, under the
command Of Col. Alfred Rhett.
At the commencement of the lombard.
ment of August II, 1863, there were in the
fort l3l, 900 pounds of gunpowder. The
magazines containing it became in few
days unsafe from the destructive effect Of
the 200 FOUNDER Parrott shells and shots
hurled into the walls and easements adjoin-
ing it. The powder was removed by night
to the West magazine. and shipped as fast
possible to Charleston.
On Sunday, August %, the 1ronsides and
seven Monitors commenced a terrific bonn
bardment. A fog protected them from the
guns of Moultris. Sumter, having only two
10 inch and one IL inch gun left en- barbette,
could only fire an occasional shot to show
life. For seven hours, at close range, the
feet hurled shot and shell into the work
Striking the wall near the parapet, loose
brick were thrown up in columns, and fell
in showers around the gunners and about
the work. Walls were plowed through,
casemates were filled with sand, and the
shells passed across the parade, striking the
interior wall of the west magazine, contain
ing powder enough to destroy fort and gar
risoD. One she'll struck the ventilator and
exploded. 1t filed the magazine with smoke.
Another more successful shst and all would
have been lost 1t was an anxious moment,
but the fort was held. Gradually the
morning dswned.s The fog lifted, and fort
Moultrie opened fire on the ships Instead
of continuing their fire At this critical peri
cd, the fleet withdrew, and the danger was
RENTED. The object was now, in the un-
safe condition Of the fort, to get rid Of the
powder. 1t depends on time: and the mover
ments of the feet. Had the fleet early re
newed the attack, the business might have
been done. The feet delayed Night after
night the powder was moved in barrels UNI
der the enemy's guns. Only eight hundred
pounds were left; the crisis was passed. The
fort was now safe from the explosion Of the
powder in its magazine. s. saK NJ
