Pitlicnlt as those at ft distance may find it
to even imagine such a thing, there are those
here who really believe that within thirty
days Jeflerson Davis will be on the sooth
bank of the Potomac with bis "army of inva
sion." Commissioner ltoman 1ms arrived from tbe
Soothern Confederacy, and the illustrious
triumvirate of traitors is completed. The
pood sense of Washington is now shown in
not locating the Federal capitol iu one of the
Urge cities, as it would be hard to answer for
en excited populace, of auy extent, with three
men among them on such an infamous
errand.

Onr Wilmington lottery friends insist opor !
giving ns a large prize. On Wednesday we I
received a letter from one who oilers to lusure j
us a price ef $6,000 more than the money
paid for tbe tickets. On Thursday we re
ceived a letter from two other firms at
Wilmington. One offers only $5,000 of a
prize. The other says we might draw as
much as $50,000 Only think of ao editor
refusing such tempting oilers. Cowper hits
said tbat "the age of virtuous politics is
past, and we are now deep in that of cold
pretence." If Cowper was alive now, ho
would mako an exception in fuvor of editor,
who refuse tbe tempting offers of these mag
nanimous lottery dealers. We think, how
ever, we shall, opon teflection, accept tho
proposition of the first marwho proposes to
insure ns a prize of $(1,0110. A nd as he shows
himself to be a generous fellow, we are do
tertnined not to be outdone in generosity and
magnanimity, and will, therefore, agree to
throw off $1000, nnd take $5000, if he will
give us good and undoubted security for the
payment of that sum, before we send him tku
i $10 la question.
As this is a fair proposition it will, no
doubt, be accepted.
P. S We neglected to say that a black
euvelnpo was also enclosed, which may be
used for other parposes in casu our proposi
tion Is refused.
imrsmi kYMtMTtiitr.n.
We think thern ore but few individuals
among the masses, in Pennsylvania, who favor
the destructive doctrine of secession, and the
robbory of the pnblic property consequent
theroon. Yet it is a fact that many of the
late Breckinridge papers, though they do not
openly approve, yet endeavor to palliate and
excuse those outrages upon our government
and glorious Union.
Tims one of the late Breckinridge organs
of this neighborhood notices the treason of
General Twiggs :
'Si-naK'tnr.nKn. Generul Twigga, who had
charge of the military deportment of the State of
Texan, surrendered all the federal property under
his chartjo, into the hands of the Toms authori
ties." Not a word is ottered in regard to the
traitorous conduct of Twiggs, but tbe fact Is
simply stated as if it were a fair and manly
business transaction. If a respectable jour
nal should refer to the- depredations of a
notorious bnrglor, In the same style, it would
probably read thus :
SfecESSFUL Entkri'risr. Mr. Richard Tur. I
pin, vulgarly called Dick Tlhimn by his ene- j
mies, visited last night, ufter midnight, the
residence of U. S. A., known ns p.rother '
Jonathan, and finding tbi proprietor and his
family quietly usbep, entered bis dwelling;
with keys which had been entrusted to his j
care and safe keeping. Mr. Turpin peacea- I
bly took possession oT all the silver plate, i
coin, watches, and other valuables that he i
could lay his bunds on, belonging to the pro
prietor, and removed them to his own quar
ters, for tho use und comfort of himsell and
such of his neighbors who sympathize with
him in enterprises of chivalry and the equal
distribution of property. This bold and da- :
ring enterprise of Mr. Turpin will, no doubt, !
be stigmatised by hypocritical moralists as a ',
burglary or midnight robbery. Put Mr. 1
Turpiu's fame, in his line, is world wide, and ;
these attacks of moralists uud christians will

The appointments of Charles Francis
Adams as Minister to England, of Win. I,.
Payton as Minister to France, and ofUeorge
I', Marsh as Minister to Sardinia, give gene
ral satisfaction among conservatives, while a

EVACUATION OF FORT SCMTEfl.
It is not probablo that President Lincoln
will withdraw the Jorcos from Fort 8nmter.
Very good authority exists for believing that
be has not, for a moment, seriously contein
plated doing so, though he has been anxious
to give a fuir hearing to his Cabinet on the
subject, and tbe better to understand tbe
views of each has sought their opinions in a
written form. This question has been a diffi
cult one to settlo, but the fact that the
li.li mnl i.f M ninr Anderson would have
the nrreBrancH 0 a virtual snrrondor. and be
a species of acknowledgment of a legal power
in the South, which tbe President by bis
oath, is forbidden to entertain keeps matters
nreciselv where they are. Had tbe Adminis
tration determined to give up Fort Sumter,
they miebt as well entertain negotiations with
the Commissioners of the Southern Congress.
Hy an ordnr of the Military Superintendent,
Major Anderson is directed, in tho regular
course of his service, to leave Fort Sumter at
tho end of June, Bnd will be then transferred
to the barracks at Newport, Kentucky, for
tho recruiting service of tbo Western De

"We have no belief that this thing willl
have an end, until theso Democratic demogo
guep, who have bpen blustering and threat

steel and told lead. Tbe mischief has como
to pucli a bead, that it must end in a collision
of arms in the bosom of the South itself.

Nothing is more interesting anJ instructive
tlmu to observe which were tho firm aod
loy nl States iu the dark days of our history.
During the thirteen years prior to tbe
adoptioti of the Constitution, iu 1787, the
Gem-rul Government had uo power of taxa
tion. Lveu wfaen, in March. 1731, tbe whole
of the States assented to the "Articles of
Confederation." Congress hud only the
power of iudicatitig what sums it stood in
need of, and of requesting etch state to con
tribute the lair proportion which It was its
duty to pay. The adoption uf the Articles of
Confederation rendered tbis an honorable
obliution, which each State, though it could
not be compelled, was bound to meet. It is
most iuterestiug to observe how it was met
during the five years which elapsed belweeu
ITH'J und 1787,
.State which paid mnre than its quota .-
Nkw York.
State which paid nearly the whole .-
Pk.nnsvi.vama.

North Carolina.
Nkw 11 ami-shirk.
Tbe above facts are derived from Judge
Story's Commentaries on tbe Constitution,
section 209, edition or 1851. Tbe extent to
which tbe several States fulfilled their honor
able obligations may ba taken as an index of
their respective loyalty and good faith. It it
interesting to observe that those States which
now repudiate their obligations to tbe Cen
tral Government, then also showed tbe same
disposition to let others pay the price of tbe
benefits which tbey received.

Waiiinoton, March J7. The u-al ques
tion before the Cabinet and it bn t-evn
pretty thoroughly discussed there, both di
rectly and deliberating on w hat is to be done
with Fort Pickens and Sumter ia the vital
recognition of the Southern Confederate
States of America by the United States of
America. On tbis there is a division of pub
lie opinion, and ibe Cabinet may not agree.
Some Republicans, belligerent and blood
thirsty, would at once seizo the Commission
ers here and bang them as traitors, then
proceed with Bre and sword to "enforce the
laws " Others, who desire to avoid civil war,
and who see no other alternative, will gladly
seo President Lineoln gracefully give np
Sumter and Pickens, and miter into tempor
ary postal and custom arrangement, certain
tbot they thus rimarm militton. If there Is
no conflict the South will soon full to pieces, I
and the speeders will be glad to return to I
their old allegiance.
TIIF. TROCRKMNOS OF TlIK f ARINRT, j
Another protracted meeting of tbe Cabinet
was held on Saturday. After passing upon
a number of Territorial and other appoint
ments, the Southern question, in its various
bearings, was again taken np and discussed
for nearly two hours. Tbe instructions to
Major Anderson, in reference to tbe evacua
tion of Fort Sumter, Tormed the principal
subject under consideration. Much diversity
of opinion is known to have prevailed as to
the manner of withdrawing the garrison, and
no ultimate conclusion was arrived at on that
point. The apparently nnavoidahln necessity
of treating with tbe revolutionary authorities
of the South, evpn to offect a peaceful remo
val, owing to their control of tbe inlet to the
harbor or Charleston, is found greatly per
plexing. Some members of the Cabinet strennonulv
opposed all direct or indirect recognition oT
the rebellions Government on the one hand.
while on the other, they are fully awaro of the i
improbability of the assent of Gen. Beanro
gard to tbe entranco of any Federal vessel
or vessels into the harbor, and the withdrawal ;
or Major Anderson's command, and without1
having first expressly stipulated, not only
agaiost all rusnt. but also the. delivery of the :
fort and its armaments in an intact condition
Thero are Republicans here, of high political
standing, who assert, both knowingly and .
positively, thBt the secret of the unexpected :
consent of Gov. Chusn and other radical !
members of the Cabinet to the surrender of!
Fort Sumter, is their firm belief in the inevi- j
tubility of the ultimate division of the country t
into two confederacies one distinctly free
labor, the other slavobolding, and their desiro
to bring abont tbe separation without blood- '
shed. Tbat this idea has boen broached in
Cabioot couucil is certain.

Fatal Aitiiiist. On Knturday, as (he train
on I. .A 13. IS. It., moving south, nenred the cut at
Bellevue, a boy and mule were discovered on the
track, and the train being so near them, it was im
possible to check its speml in time. The liny waa
so injured that ho died in a abort time of hia injii.
ries, and the mule waa considerably hurt. It
eeenu that the boy wis riding the mule from the
mines, and the animal becoming frartioua, ran
away and threw its rider olf on the track.
The same paper eav : "We ore informed by
a gentleman who came up on the Bloomsburg
train hil night, that aa the ears were passing
Uellevue, two shots in quick succession were firej
at the train, but happily tvitbnnt injury to any
one. It ia thought that they were aimed at tho
engineer, and that tbo object was revenge for the
acrk'enlal killing of the bov who waa rnn over
by the train on Saturday. The engineer waa a
new one; M r. Thonian, who has herotn'orc
had chariio of the engine, having been suspended
by the company in consequence of threata made
against him."
A large body of Irishmen assembled at thi
point with Ihe intention of firing into the up
train, but the Cundoctnr becoming aware nf the
fact, ordered tbe engineer to put nn more steam
and tbo train ranio through taft-. Scrantoti

A Somewhat serious, yet ludicious affair,
took plaae yesterday upon the Canal Basin,
near Washington Avonuo. It seems that a
number of tbe College girls huvo been in the
habit of resorting to the ice during a portion
of their leisure moments, where under the
kind guardianship of one of the Professors,
they have nnido great progress during the
winter in the pleasant exercise of skating.
They closed that particular form of exercist-,
for tbe season, yesterday, under circumstan
ces at once exciting, instructive and amusing.
Professor Lattimer examined tbe ice early
yesterday morning, tried its strength to bis
entire satisfaction, and pronounced it safe.
Later in the day some fifteen of the young ,
ladies, accompanied by Prof. L., pro, edeu
to the "Pond," adjusted their skates, and
; pursued their favorite pastime for a consider- i
j ablo time, with a zest increased hy the fact j
that the skating season had nearly arrived at
its close. Their fun, however, as brought'
to a sudden termination. Two of the young
ladies unfortunutely approuceed a thin pur :
! tion of tbo ice near the centra of tbe Basin
I there was a crash, several shrieks, aod then !
1 a hastening to and fro ! Tho treacherous ice :
had given way. and two of the fairest young '
j girls in the company suddenly found them-;
, selves splashing about iu cold watei, five feet 1
i deep! A number of young men, who were
skatinc near by, eallantlv flew to their rescue
! but in more haute than prudencn approached
. - .
I too near the broken edges of the ice, and !
, three of them shared a like fate with the .
i young ladies. Here was a piedfcumont j
j indeed ! Prof. Lattimer however, managed
; more cautiously than tho impetuous young ;
: men did, and by putting out planks to thn
involuntary bathers, tbey were all rescued j
: from their unpleasant situation, nothing the i
i worse ofsthe accident, with the acception of a I
slight irigbt, some cbattcring or the jaws I
and five suits of clothes rather uncomfortably 1
