erson, with whom, however, his communication was necessarily limited, as Gov. Pickens sent Capt. Hartstein, late of our Navy, as an escort with him to the fort, who kept within earshot during most of the interview, or at least, near enough to prevent any free communication. He considers that the fort can be reinforced either by a military operation, which, of course, would require a force not at the disposal of the President, or by the strategy already referred to, with its attendant hazards of a desperate conflict. The supply of provisions now in the garrison, will probably enable Major Anderson to sustain his command reasonably well until the 15th of April. From all the facts disclosed by this investigation, it is manifest that Fort Sumter must be abandoned, or civil war inaugurated. Capt. Fox is cautious, intelligent and well-informed, and was brought to the notice of the government by Mr. Aspinwall and some of the principal ship-owners of New York and Boston.--N. Y. Tribune.

41. the New birth, April 15th, A. D. 1861. Ring out the tidings round the earth, To all the families of men; A nation hath been born again, Regenerate by a second birth! Rent are the bonds of gain and greed, Once coiled around our common life: Hushed are the hate of party strife, And jealousies of race and creed. We see the light the prophets saw, In eyes of age and eyes of youth-- The sacred flame of trust and truth, Of justice, liberty, and law.

The N. Y. Herald makes up a table of voluntary contributions by cities, counties, and individuals in the North, all $1,000 or over, each, which sum up to $11,230,000, of which New York city gives $2,155,000, and the N. Y. State Legislature $3,000,000 more. And all this has been subscribed since the 15th of April. Of sums below a thousand dollars subscribed by private individuals, and of which no mention is made in this statement, it is no exaggeration to set down the aggregate at $5,000,000. If we take the average expenditure of each volunteer of the 250,000 men who are now drilling and under arms in the free States at $10, it will give us — a further amount of $2,500,000 Besides these sums, we may put down $5,000,000 more for the contributions made by families towards the more comfortable outfit and equipment of such of their members as have taken up arms in defence of the national flag. And of casual sums given on the spur of the moment to applicants needing aid, in rifles,
