The Next Move.
For ionic days past, the telegraphic
despatches from Washington have led us
to believe that the evacuation of Fort |
Sumter has been, or will be, decided upon ;
by the President. All, the military men
about Washington, and the Cabinet, with'
ope or two. exceptions, think the Fort
mast, of necessity, be given up, and it
now remains with the President to say
whether it shall be evacuated or rc-iuforccd.
Mpjor Anderson informed , the Govern
ment some six or eight days since, that he
hod only about fifteen days provision and
coal on hand, and he must sup
plied or removed. To attempt to give
him supplies or re-inforcementa would, in
his-opinion,'bring about a pollision which |
would require a heavy force of men, more
than the government couM at this time-j
command. In view of this it is thought
that Fort Sumpter will be evacuated and
that another move in the programme will
be made. It is the attempt to collect the
revenue off the Southern harbors. If
this step must be taken the Government
should'obviously be preparing to back it
up with sufficient show of force to make
. the move a successful one. This we find
it is now .prudently doing. * At New York
there is now collected, and almost ready
for service, a larger naval force than was
ever concentrated on any one squadron

Navy. It exceeds the Paraguay expedi

Faulkner, our minister at the Court of
France, has been officially assured by M.
Thouvenal that no delegate from South
Carolina, or from any other seceding
States, has over been received either by
the Emperor or by himself. This may
be considered as indicative of the deter
mination of France to offer no recognition
whatever to the “ Confederate States of
America,’' and as emphatically stamping
its disapprobation upon the secession
movement.

almost impossible to imagine its deplorable con
dition. In the square one absolutely walk* on
iron. It is even difficult to get along the streets,
so obstructed are they with the ruins of booses
knocked down by shot ani shells. Here and
there I saw men . wheeling [barrows containing
the mangled remains of bodies extricated, from
the ruins. One poor woma a was got out still
living from under the fallen walls of a house,
where she had lain several days with a. broken
leg A wounded soldier tbs also found dying
iu the street, where he had: no doubt been aban
doned in the midst of the confusion by the last
bombardment. Hut the . Worst scene of all is
the Transylvania battery, which was blown up
by the explosion of the powder magazines. The
walls thrown down, the veryC rocks riven, and
the ground strewn with: shells and grenades,
present a sight which reall;Smokes one shudder.
It is evident that if thesieje bad lasted another
month Gaeta would have been utterly destroyed.
The number of sick and wounded in the town
was 1,700.

Ix'ttlhifT. Mr. Wolfe’s salesof Schnapps lastyearamounted
to one hundred and eighty thousand dozen, and wo hope in
, less than two years he may be equally successful with his
: Brandies and Wines.
His business merits the patronage of every lover of his
species. Private families who wish puVo Wipes and Liquors
for medical use should send their orders direct to Mr. Wolfe,
until every Apothecary in the land wake up their minds
to discard the poisonous stuff from their shelves, and re
place it with Wolfe’s pure Wines and Liquors.
We understand that Mr. Wolle, fiir the accommodation
of small dealers in the country, puts up assorted cases of
Wines and Liquors Such a mau, and such a merchant,
should be sustained against bis tens of thousands of oppo
nents in the United States, who sell nothing but imitations,
i ruinßns alike to human health and happiness.
