FIRING INTO THE STAR OF THE WEBT. The brief notice wc gave in our last, al though afterwards contradicted, turns out to be true to the letter. The tory traitors and would-bc-assassins, in tlieir anxiety to involve the Southern States in the most con summate act of f'oily and wickedness ever attempted in this country, have thus plac ed themselves in an attitude from which, unless the last resort, the mission of i.iout Talbot, results peaceably, there will be no retreat. With other interestiiftr matter we give the account .as furnished by a Nmth Carolina tory paper: AUGUSTA, Ga., January 10. —This morning's Charleston Courier gives the fol lowing particulars in relation to the attack upon the steamer Star of the West: About half past six o'clock yesterday morning the steamer Gen. Clinch discover ed the steamer Star of the West, and sig nalled the fact to the occupants ot the bat tery on Morris Island. As soon as the fact was signalled, all Morris Island was astir, and the men were at their posts be- i fore the orders were given. They remained in anxious suspense, but ready lor what was sure to come —namely, a volley from Fort Sumter. The Star of the IVest rounded the point, and took the ship channel inside the bar, and proceeded straight forward un til she was opposite Morris Island, thrce (juarters of a mile from the battery, when a ball was fired athwart the bows of the steamer. The Star of the West display ed the stars and stripes, and, as soon as it was unfurled, a succession of heavy shots : was fired. The vessel continued at increas ed speed, but one or two shots taking effect i her captain concluded to retire. Fort Moultrie fired a few shots, but they j were out of range. The damage done to the steamer was only trifling, only two out j of seventeen shots taking effect, but there is no idea as to the extent of the damage. Fort iSumter made no demonstration, i except that its guns were run out of tlie em brazures hearing on Morris Island and Fort Moultrie. About 1! o'clock a boat from Fort Hump ter, bearing Lieut. Ilall, with a white flag, approached the city. He had an interview with Governor Pickens, and wasaftei wards escorted to the boat, and re embarked for 1 Fort Sumptcr. The communication from Major Ander son is as follows : To J Its Excellency the Governor of South Car oliria : SIR : Two of your batteries fire<3, this morning, on an unarmed vessel bearing the flag of my government. 1 am not notitied that war has been declared by South Caroli na against the United States, and I cannot but think that this hostile act was committed without your sanction or authority. Cnder that hope 1 refrained froui opening fire upon your batteries. I have the honor, therefore, respectfully to ask whether the above men tioned act—one, I believe, without a parallel in the history of our country, or any oth cr civilized Government—was committed in obedience to your instructions, and notify you that, if not disclaimed, that I regard it as an act of war, and shall not after reason able time for the return of my messenger, permit any vessel to pass within the range of my fort. In order to save, as far as in my power, the shedding of blood, 1 beg you will liave due notification made of my decision to all concerned. Hoping, however, that your answer may justify a further continuance of forbearance on my part, I am, respectfully. ROBERT ANDERSON*. Governor Pickens in his reply, after sta ting the position of South Carolina to tl e United States and that any attempt to send ( uited States troops to Charleston harbor to reinforce the forts would be regarded as an act of hostility, says, in conclusion : Any attempt to reinforce the troops in Fort Sumter, or to retake and resume possession j of the forts within the waters of this State. ■ which you abandoned, spiking the guns, and doing otherwise much damage, cannot be re- I garcltd by the authorities of the State as in- j dicative of any other purpose than a coercion I of the State by the armed force of the Gov- j eminent. Sj > i;il agents, therefore, have j been placed oti the bar to warn approaching j vessels, botli armed, and unarmed, having troops on board to reinforce the torts, not to i enter the harbor. Special orders have been I given to the commanders of the forts not to lire at such vessels until a shot across her bow would warn them of the prohibition of the State, I nder such circumstances, the Star of the West, I have understood, this morning attempted to enter the harbor with troops, ! and, having been notified that she could not enter, was fired into. The act is justified by ! me. In regard to your threat against vessels in the harbor, it is only necessary to say that you must judge of your responsibility. " Yuur position in the harbor has been tolerated by the authorities of this State, aud while the act of j which you complain is in perfect consistency with the rights and duties of the State, it is j not perceived how far the conduct you pro- ' pose to adopt can find a parallel in the his tory of any country, or reconcile it with any other purpose ol your Government than im- 1 posing on the State the condition of a con- ! quered province. F. W. PICK EN'S. The following is a second communication from Major Anderson : To His Excellency Governor Pickens: Sin: I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your communication, and say th3t under the circumstances, I have deemed it proper to refer the whole matter to uiy Gov ernment, and intend deferring the course in dicated by my note of this morning, until the arrival from Washington of the instructions 1 may receive. 1 have the honor to also ex press the hope that no obstructions will be placed in his way, and that you will do me the favor of giving every facility to the de parture and return of the bearrr, Lieut. T. Talbot, who is directed to make the journey. R. ANDEKSON". Governor Pickens immediately granted the permission desired, and directed that every facility and courtesy should be ex tended to the bearer of dispatches, Lieut. 'I ulbot, tor his Government, both troing aud returning. AY EE'S FSS®" CATHARTIC jirxr Are you sick, feel.te. arvl i | * cocjj'kiitiiny;?
