Anderson's dispatch to the Secretary of War Sir, Having defended Fort Sumter 34 hours, until quarters were entirely burnt and main gates entirely destroyed by fire, the walls seriously injured, the maga. zines sui rounded by flames, and its doors closed from the effects of heat, one barrel and three cartridges available, and no provisions but pork remaining, I accepted terms of evacuation offered by Gen. Beauregard, (same aa offered by him on the Vroin the New York Evening Tost. The First Defeat 6f the Hebcit. It is evident that tleneral Scott has once more beaten the enemies of his country by mere force of his admirable strategical genius.

To do so, ho has, as was necessary, suffered not only traitors, but loyal meD, to rest under a misar prehension Those who remember the impatience with which the American public watched hia apparent Inaction at one period of the Mexican war, will not have forgotten the shout of admiration which went up from the people when it was at last discovered that the supposed inaction had been in reality the wisest and sh ewdest action and that by the most masterly display of military strategy he had outwitted the enemy, and obtained a splendid victo-ry when nought but defeat and disaster stared our army in the face. lie who reads and compares carefully the despatches from Charleston, Montgomery and Washington in this morning's journals, cannot avoid the gratifying conclusion that that which looks at first blush like a disaster to tho government, is in reality but the successful carrying out of an admirable plan of military operations. Before this the traitors 6ee themselves caught in the toils. In fact it seems to have sickened the chief traitor, Davis, already, for Montgomery despatches relate tbat when the news from Charleston came, and the mob serenaded Davis and Walker, the former was not trell and did not appear and eveu his secretary was costive of words, and declined to make a speech." The facts which tend to tho conclusion we hava pointed out, may be summed up as' follows General Scott has been averse to the attempt to reinforce Fort Sumter. He saw that it would cost men and vessels which tho Government culd not spare FRIDAY EVrMNO, AfRlL 19, 1961.

Cut Mono The Louisville Journal admits that it Is tho duty of tLe rresiUent to execute the laws, but tliinka there are exigencies when he cannot perforin that duty, or can only do it by involving the couctry in evils too times greater than he seek9 to remedy. Eucli ia its opinion, the case now presented by the Southern rebellion. It argues that there is not power enough in the nation to execute tho laws of the nation in the revolted States. 41 The territory," it says might be every square rood of iU soil might be moistened with blood, all resistance might possibly for a time disappear be-" fore the march of a victorious army, but resistanca would spring up again as epee-" dily as a trodden blade of grass springs back to its position. Only by the utter annihilation of the whole population of the Seceding States, only by the trans-" formation of the entire South into a red and reeking desert, could the laws of the United States be enforced thera and they could cot bo enforced even then, "tor there would bo nono upon whom they could operate." "We are incredulous, and shall be until the experiment has been tried I When "every square rood" of Southern evil has been "moiatened" with traitorous blood, the Government of the Union may be satisfied to let the remnant go, but not until then.

It ia asked what good a bloody protracted strife can, accomplish unless it shall restore the integrity of the Union. While we believe that this revolt can be quelled and a Union party developed in the extreme South by rigorous measures, we are sure that every dictate of sound statesmanship demands that the effort should be made, were it certain that it would ultimate in a separation of the North and South, and the formation cf an independent Southern Confederacy. This contest is not so much about territorial limits, as to demonstrate, whether we have a government or not. The South have fallen into the fatal delusion that tho Northern men are a race of cowards. They would never otherwise have ventured upon so wild and reckless an experiment as secession.

That delusion has has got to be whipped out of them. The North is rousing to the task. From Maine to Minnesota, iu every village and hamlet the tigual to arms is Bounded and hundreds of thousands are enrolling themselves for the struggle. Every State and every section is to bo taught the great leseon that It is no light tiling to trample upon the Constitution and the laws and that every attempt to break up the Union will be visited with fearful retribution -whether the revolted States are brought back to their allegiance or not, such pen alties must bo visited upon the traitors as shall serve for a warning and example to all future generations. We must now fight.

We must hold the seceding States as subjugated provinces for a time, if need bo, in order to have settled peace hereafter. Organize lor llattle Me.ks. Editors': The call of the Fres ident for one Regiment only from Wiecon sin, will leave thousands at home who are eager for tLe fray. The question that will cause most perplexity is, not who shall go, but who shall slay. I take it that the Regiment is already twice full of enrolled men perhaps ten times, even before the mass of the people have news of the call.

What then of those left behind? Can we sit down idle wLilo our brothers are on tho march. I would earnestly urge npon your read and the Governor, if he has jywer, to call on every man to enroll himself at once as a National or llome Guard. Let every town muster its Company, and learn the military drill. We have in Dane county not less than eight thousand men, and of theae five thousand should organize themselves into companies within a month. Arms of uniform and standard kinds are of course wanting, but let every rifle, musket and fowling piece be burnished up, and made ready for practice.

They are all that is necessary to learn the practice, the great first point in the drama of civil war now opening. It is not necess ary that such companies should be uni formed, or put to any considerable expense. hat drill, drill is tho word. A day or part of day in each week, continued regu larly, would suffice to initiate beginners and who that has patriotism would hesi tate to fit himself for the emergencies he may bo speedily called to meet, when it can be so easily done? Count np the number of rifles and mus kets iu your towns, all over the State, good friends, and you will disco rer many more than ie generally imagined. They are enough for tho purpose, and if the people of our youug State will promptly enroll as suggested, by the 4th of July text, Wisconsin willbhow 100,000 men in ieir respective towns.

Baltimore, April 18. A party of sea eionists on Federal Hill raised a secessk Hag at noon and commenced firing a ealut In a few moments the working men froift all the foundries in the vicinity, hearing the report, rushod on thera, tore dowu their flag, spiked the gnn, and threw it into the Tiver. The secessionists fled in consternation, and the flag was torn in tatters.

The enthusiasm was universal for the Union. Not less than five thousand persons were present. Harrisburgh, April 18. Trains' are leaving with troops as fast, as they are prepared. Lewis W.

Hall, of Blair county, was elected Speaker of the House this forenoon. Five hundred volunteers left via the Northern Central Railroad for Washington this morning. Seven hundred men arrived to day and were sent forthwith. The Petersburg division, six hundred stand of arms, are expected hero to day. Both Houses of the Legislature met in convention at the hall of the house this to hear "The Star Spangled Banner' sung.

The refrain was joined in by all the members and galleries amid the wildest cheering and enthusiasm. The song was afterwards sung in the Senate, and in both cases, the members and spectators seemed mad with patriotic devotion. Both Houses have adjourned sine die. New York, April IS. The Post's special says, engineers are' reconnoitering Washington, with! a view of erecting defensive works.

The Mayor of Georgetown is raising troops for government. Davis proclamation occasions renewed activity, and the mouth of the Mississippi will be vigorously blockaded. Maj. Anderson landed at the Battery, and was received by an immense crowd. Ilia carriage was surrounded by the people who expressed in cheers and other demonstrations their congratulations, and was followed by an immense throng through Broadway, to the Prescott where he joined hia wife.

The following is a digest of Capt. Dou-bleday's statement The demand to surrender Sumter was made on the 11th, and refused, not only by Anderson but by the unanimous voice of his command. On Friday morning at 3 o'clock the rebels sent word that fire wonld be opened in an hour, ar.d at 4 o'clock fire was opened on us from every direction, including a hidden battery. Fire opened with a volley from 17 firing, ten inch shells, and shot from 83 guns, mostly Columbiads. We took breakfast, however, quite leisurely.

The command was divided into three watches, each under direction of two officers. After breakfast they immediately went to their guns and opened fire on Moultrie, Camming's Point and Sullivan's Island. The iron battery of Camming's Point was of immense strength, and most of our shots glanced off. Anderson refused to allow the men to work the guns on the parapet on account of such terrific fire. There was scarcely a room left ia Moultrie Several 6hots went through the floating battery, tut it was not damaged much.

Two guns on the iron battery were dismounted. A ino was stationetl, who cried shot or shell when the rebels fired, aod the garrison was then enabled to dodge. At -first the workmen were unwilling to help work the guns, but afterwards served willingly and efficiently against the iron battery. The barracks caught fire several times on Friday, but was extinguished by Mr. Holt, of N.

and Wyman of Baltimore, both volunteers. On Saturdav the officers' burned. The magazine was surrounded and ninety barrels of powdtr was taken out and thrown into the sea. When the, msgazina was encircled by fire, all our materials were cut off, and we had eaten our last buscuittwo days before. The men had to lay on the ground with wet handkerchiefs on their faces to prevent smothering, and favorable eddies of wind was all that.saved our lives.

The cartridge bags gave out, and five uien were employed to manufacture them ont of cur shirts, blankets, sheets, It will take half a million of dollars to repair Fort Most of their slots were aimed at the flag. The following is the conversation between Maj. Anderson and Wigfall. The latter said "General this, sir." Anderson Beauregard wishes to stop only replied "Well well." Wigfall "You have done all thit can be done, and Gen. Beauregard wishes to know npon what ter ms you will evacuate the Fort." Anderson "Gen.

Beauregard is already acquainted with tbe.terms." i Wigfall "Do I understand you will exacuate on the terms proposed Anderson "Yes, and only these.1' 'Wigfall then returned; a few minutes after. Chestnut and others came from Gen. Beauregard, asking if Anderson wanted any, help, stating that Wigfall had not seen Beauregard for two days and had no authority for hia demand on To which tho -Major replied "Then we have been We will raise our flag again." But he requested to keep it down till' corn mnnicatiou was had with Beauregard. The firing then ceased, and three hours after deputation came again to the erms previously decided upon; Sunday morning the steamer Isabel came down and anchored at the Fort, when all baggage was put on the steamer O. Lynch.

The troops were under arms. A portion were told to salute the flag, and when the last of i 50 gnns was fired, the flag was lowered, and heartily cheered by the men, who then formed and embarked to the tune of Yankee Doodle." Two men were killed on the second round of the salute, and four were wounded (one and left at Charleston. Fort Sumter has not. been reinforced on any occasion. The Baltic arrived off Charleston on the morning of Friday, after firing commenced on Sumter.

Tho Pawnee and Pocahontas arrived uext day. The Pow-hattan and Atlantic have not been seen. The day that Anderson evaouated preparations were being made to reinforce him that right. A schooner was seized and an agreement made to pay the Pilot and Captain $500 to put men into the Fort, but the Fort was evacuated before the attempt could be Capt. Fox had instructions to attempt to provision the Fort without troops.

If fired on, be was to rush in the best way he could but the gale prevented the arrival of tugs and transports. The Harriet Lane is soon expected to arrive. The Pawnee has gone to Washington. Anderson's brother officers express the deepest indignation at aspersions cast on their brave commander. Numerous friends waited on Anderson and other Sumter officers during this P.

and the appear-, ance of any officer or 6oldier from Sumter in the street, was the signal for a crowd and enthusiastic cheers. The Cth regiment paid their respects to Anderson this P.M, to which he responded from the balcony of the Prescott House, with a simple military salute.

The Southern Commissioners bad reason to discover facts while in Washington, and have prob-ahly given Davis and his compatriots some new ideas not at all flattering to their vanity and visions of ultimate success. The following paragraph we cut from the La Crosse Democrat "About three weeks since, a man named Peter Stevenson, with his family, consisting of a wife and four children, left Pic-ton, Prince Edwards county, C. for La Crosse.

jast now. As an able General, he saw that bnmter and Charleston were points ot nomilittry importance, and would only need valuable men to hold, if we took them with no adequate advantage gained. He saw that the two keys ot the position were Fort Pickens in the Gulf, and Washington, the Capital. He knew what Davis had. not generalship to perceive, that on the 4th of March and for some weeks afterwards, it would have been almost impossible for the Federal Government to defend Washington against such a force as the traitors had already collected before Sumter, and which could be marched at any time on a Capital not yet prepared for defense not yet even purged of traitors.

I His plans, based on these facts, were at once laid. Uy every means in his power, he concentrated the attention of traitora and loyal men on Sumter, lie must have sesn with infinite satisfaction the daily increasing force gathered at Charleston, while the government lost, no time in strengthening the capital. Every hour the traitors spent before Sumter gave them only more Surely into the hands of their master. To make assurance doubly sure, he pre-tended to leave, Fort Pickens in the lurch. It was said to be in no danger, when Scott knew that a formidable force was investing it.

Men feared that all would be lost by the inaction of the government, when it was never more shrewdly ener getic. At last Washington was reasonably safe. Forces were gathered, Once more our brave old general saw himself with means in his hands, Then came the armament popularly lelieeed to le destined for Sum ter. The government sauLnot a word only asked the traitora the opportunity to send its own garrison a needed supply of food. They refused and tearing the ar rival of the federal fleet drnnk and besotted with treason, and impatient to shed the blood ot loyal soldiers, they xnade the attack.

Scarce had they f.TT, tarmr kitfS" Iiovt Ting aooui ith evident terrar. i a Mroor mouth they plied their can non in desperate haste; but no s7iip came in to Anderson's relief What was the matter? Made bold by the furious thirst for Mood, they dared the' ships to come in. Hut no ship offered its assistance to Anderson More, ihe guns of Sumter were only directed at the worls of the traitors, and Major Anderson evidently tried to fire in such a manner as not to kill men. He did not even try a few bomb3 on the city, though it is certain, from a letter of one of his own officers, that his guns would reach beyond the centre of Charleston. What was the matter Beauregard must have thought the Government officers both fools and cowards.

When his own boats were eailing unharmed about the harbor, between Sumter and Moultrie, bearing his orders, was it possible that the forces outs-ide could stand apathetic while a brave garrison was being to death When the battle wa9 to the death, would a shrewd officer neglect to divert his enemy's attention by firing his city If it seemed mysterious to us, waiting on Saturday with breathless suspense, it must have seemed incomprehensible to any cool head in the traitor camp. Still no ships come in and in fact the reports state that only three or four Bmall vessels remained in the offing. After forty hours canonade, in, ichich one man is hilled, Major Anderson; an officer of undoubted courage and honor, runa up a white the tort, and becomes the gueot of General Beauregard. Let no man hastily cry traitor 1 lie only obeyed his orders. He made an honorable defence.

He took-care to shed no blood. He "gave orders not to sight men, but to silence batteries." Meantime, while the rebels are ignor-antly glorifying the victory of five thousand men over eighty, what news comes from Montgomery Th.3 telegraph in the hands of the rebels, ''Fort Pickens was reinforced last night. liJt is understood that Charleston harbor is llockaded." Despatches from Lieutenant Slemmer, captured by the rebels, gave Davis the first intimation of his defeat! No won der the rebel chief was "eick," and went to bed I No 'wonder -that his secretary, Walker, declined to make a speech. And what from Washington These significant paragraphs 'The report that Anderson hag surrendered, and is the guest of Oeneral Beauregard, has been coin-inuuicated to the President. The latter was not surprised, but, on the cr.ntrary, remarked, 'The tup-ply vessels could not reach him, and he did hen he was told tbat the report was that nobodf was injured in Fort Sumter, be seemed ery much gratified, and remarked that he regretted that MnJ.

Anderson oonld not be supplied, as that was all he needed. "The next act in the play viU represent a scene at Fort I'icJkens, in Ftneacola harbor." The position of affairs is this Charleston is blockaded. Fort Pickens is reinforced by troops which the traitors foolishly believed were destined for Sumter. Washington is eecuro beyond peradven-tnre. The traitors have, without the slightest cause, opened the war they have so long threatened.

The country is roused to defend its aaUed liberties, and gathers enthusiastically about the government; and treason has been checkmated at the first blow it struck. Let them keep Sumter a few weeks. i Let no man cry traitor to Major Ander son! Let no man fear for the enerirv of the Administration.
