SUSTAIN THE GOVERNMENT
Let Cliicago Speak.
BIBCHSG TREASON.
At Metropolitan Hall, this evening at 7,
o'clock, there will be a meeting of all the
people of Chicago in favor of expressing
their faith in, and fidelity to, the Govern
ment, by tbe election, to-morrow, of the
true Union ticket headed by Jcius S.
Humeet !
Let the people turn out; and by their
acts and votes send words of prtriotism
and good cheer to the President in his
efforts to sustain the Constitution!
Let them come up to the wort before
them!
Speaking, music and patriotic songs may
be expected.
Remember, at Metropolitan this
(Monday) evening 1
CONFIRMATION OP THE WORST.
Sumter baa fallen. The despatches of
last evening happily relieve Major Ander
son of the suspicions which in the minds
of a large share of the true men in every
place where the news of the surrender
went, were gathering about his name.
There seems to be no reasonable doubt
that his men were worn with hunger and
Citigue, that some of them were wounded,
that the fire of the enemy was unexpect
«dly destructive, and that all hope of relief
was abandoned, before the old flag was
hauled down, and the rattlesnake banner
hoisted in its place. Of course, the ac
counts coming from men drunk with trea
son, whisky and victory are anything but
clear. But the sum of all—the surrender
of a necessary stronghold, and the tem
porary triumph of the traitors—must be
accepted as a fact which we cannot escape.
*Wo have no disposition to detract from the
advantage which will accrue to the rebels by
their success. It gives them a prestigs
worth an army of ten thousand men. Wc
have no wish either to conceal the shame
and humiliation which will be felt by the
Federal power by this miscarriage of this
its first military endeavor. All these will
have their result;. We already see them
in the inauguration of War.
Sumter has been surrendered—what
then? Why, the necessity for a full vindi
cation of the power of the Government is
more imperative than ever. Its loss en
tails upon the Administration an obli
gation to retake it, though to do
so, the last cannon shot in our arsenals
and the last dollar in the Treasury, are ex
pended. At whatever outlay of time, treas
ure and life, the place must be once more
in the hands of its rightful owners—the
people of the United States,
by the Administration. Grant that the
effort may localize the war in Charleston
harbor; grant that the forces of the oppo
sing civilizations make that city the scene
of the most arduous struggle ever wit
nessed on this conticent; grant that
every available man in the seceding States
is drawn there, with Jeff, Davis
at the head of the army, hy
the obstinacy of the defence—and the
Government should not he turned from its
purpose. We have the men and the muni
tions of war; and now, since this last out
rage upon the flag, the will, thank God I to
make them effective against the traitors hy
whom the flag has been dishon
ored! In the North there can be
no diversity of opinion, no dlsagre
ment among political parties, as to- the
course for the Administration to pursue.
The fervent exclamation, “ Thank God wc
have a Government at last I” which has
broken from the lips of millions of men
within the past week, must not be changed
into curses upon the men now in power.
Not only Sumter must, if surrendered, he
retaken, but every foot of Federal proper,
ty in the seceding States must be occupied
and possessed by Federal troops.
EVEEY JgAX>B DUTY—HEAD!
Lenity and forbearance have only nursed
tiie viper into life —the war has begun / It
may not be the present duty of each one
of ns to enlist and march to toe sound of
bugle and drum; but there is a duty, not
less important, which is in the power of
every man and woman in Chicago, and in
the North, to perform—it is to be loyal in
heart and word to the cause of the United
States. Prom this horn*, let no Northern
man or wonjan tolerate in his or her presence
too utterance of one word of treason. Let
expressed rebuke and contempt rest on
every man weak enough to be anywhere
else in this crisis than on the side of too
country against treason—of Lincoln and
Scott against Davis and Twiggs— of God
against BaaL We say t > tbe Tories and
lickspittles in this community, a patient
and reluctant, but at last an outraged and
maddened people, will no longer endure
your hissing. You must keep your venom
sealed, or go down f There is a Republic!
Thtfgates of Janus are open; the storm is
onus. Let the cry be, The Sword of
the Lord and of Gideon !
’QUICK, SIX A.BP AND DECISIVE*
The act of the rebels has inaugurated
the bloody strife. The voice of the coun
tiy is now for War. From all the North
goes up a cry. for a re-assertion of the
outraged authority of the Govern
ment at any cost. The President
and his advisers, moved by patriot
ism which *has been kindled in ev
ery man’s breast, are responding to it with
the earnestness which bids us hope for
great results. The country, let them be
warned, will be content with no half-way
.measures. Time for throwing turf has
passed. Let the iron and leaden missives
fly. Let the full power of twenty millions
of men united in a common cause, be put
forth. Let the money be poured out.
Let the hammers resound in the armories.
Let the men march forth. A quick, short,
sharp but decisive contest, made by the
Government with a force which nothing
can resist, must re-establish its authority
wherever the old flag has been wont to
float So says Pennsylvania, Ohio, Massa
chusetts and Rhode Island. Every other
loyal State will acquiesce. Let not HU*
nois be behind in the patriotic work 1

Remember that in all that the Chicago
Tima has said of the secession movement,
tiie taking of Sumter and the minor acts of
the great treason, not one word has yet
been uttered in condemnation of the trai
tors and rebels—not a word! Mr, Lincoln

VOLUME XIV.
ILLINOIS nEIPOMI,
®n» Session of the I.egUUtßn.
Gov. Yates left this city, yesterday, for
Springfield, where he will afflv the peat
seal of State to his Proclamation, calling
the Legislature together for the purpose of
passing a militia bill and making the ap
propiatlons necessary for arming and
equipping the men who will he organized
thereby. It is a necessary and patriotic
movement, and we are mistaken in the
character of the people of Illinois if they
do not respond to it with a degree oi
alacrity that will astonish the traitors who
have doubted their fidelity to the Consti
tution and the Union.
We see no need of delay. The power
of the legislative body to borrow money
in this emergency to any amount necessary
for the objects to be attained, is unques
tionably clear. The language of the fun
damental law la explicit and emphatic.
That the time has come for ,the State to
make some vigorous and well-directed
movement for the security of her people,
and for sustaining the Federal power in
its contest with the madmen who would
overthrow it, the recent affair at Charles
ton and the daily threats of invasion from
the seceding States, leave no room
to doubt. Illinois must not be caught
napping. She must follow the noble ai d
patriotic example of Pennsylvania, Massa
chusetts, Rhode Island and Ohio. Her inter
est in the maintenance of the Government
is incalculable, and all sacrifices demanded
by the crisis must he gladly submitted to,
that her interests may be protected. We
trust, then, that there will be no hesitation
—no delay. The representatives of the
people may he safely and wisely consulted
in this exigency in our national affairs.
There should be, there must he, no divis
ion among the parties as to the great object
to be accomplished. Republicans and
Democrats for once will act in accord.
The instincts of self-preservation, to say
nothing of the demands of duty, will im
pel them to make common cause with the
Union men of the other loyal States—t.
say to treason that it shall not prevail.
Let the Legislature he called. Let the
State be armed.
JULIAN S. BVHSET.
Of Mr. Ramsey’s qualifications for the
Mayoralty, their is no doubt. His energy
and honesty as a business man, his inter
est in the prosperity of the city, his sound
ness as a thorough, up and down,outspoken,
down right Union man—fighting Union
man—at all times and in all circumstances,
are admitted hy all who know him. He
has been in Chicago since he was a hoy
He knows her wants and the sources of
her prosperity as well as any other man
within her limits. That he will not, if
elected, as he will he,do the duties of his of
fice faithfully, honestly, promptly and sat
isfactorily, no man of his acquaintance
believes.
The demands upon the public for his tri
umphant election are growing more and
more imperative. His defeat would be
accounted a defeat of the Government, and
a triumph of the semi-secession faction
which has made the Chicago Tin\e% the
conduit through which their treason'has
been poured out upon this community ever
since South Carolina rebelled. If not so,
why ihc-terrible of that faction
that he should he defeated? Who can
tell ? la he not honest ? Is he not capa
ble ? Is he not the man for the place ?
What is the objection to him, unless it is
found in the fact that he is a fighting Union
man? Republicans, Democrats—every
body for the Union forever—we appeal to
you for his majority!
BOABB OF PUBLIC WORKS.
Tiie People nominated a ticket for Com
missioners of Public Works on Saturday,
winch, they are bound to elect. Among
the many excellent names presented to the
Convention, it would have been difficult to
select three men of higher character and
better business capacity than Messrs.
Warner, Carpenter and Gindelle.
Never within our knowledge of city poli
tics and city conventions, has there been
so little scheming and log-rolling to pro
cure any nominations whatever. The re
sult seems to have been unpremeditated
and unexpected, and hence, when we con
sider the fitness of the gentlemen named,
all the more satisfactory to the masses of
the people.
Mr. Carpenter is an old resident of the
North Division, well known both to the
business and laboring men of the city. As
a member of the Common Council, to
which he was elected in a Democratic
ward, he gave not only dignity and charac
ter to that much abused office, but marked
industry and efficiency. No win™ ever bad
more weight, in a mental or moral point
of view, in the Aldermanic office tTinn
Benjamin Carpenter. There is no man in
the North Division, or any other Division
of Chicago, whose character for probity
stands higher than his, or whose election
will conduce more to the public confidence
in the new Board.
Mr. Warner is a member of the well
known firm of Gates, Warner & Chalmers,
of the Eagle Iron Works—a working man
of eminent skill in his business, clear and
comprehensive intellect, and unblemished
integrity. He is peculiarly fitted to guard
the interests of the city in all matters relat
ing to contracts for labor and material for
the public works, and will exercise a
sound, practical discretion in all matters
which may come before the Board.
Mr, Gikdelle is a practical engineer of
firat-elass qualifications. His articles pub
lished in this and other city papers on the
possibility of enlarging the Illinois and
Michigan Canal to steamboat capacity,
hare attracted general attention in this
State and elsewhere. The city will secure
the services of a gentleman of excellent
scientific attainments by electing Mr.
Gusdellb to the Board of Public 'Worts.
Wo have said thus much Of the Republi
can nominees, not in the way of partisan
adulation, but in the strict letter of down
right truth, and the people of Chicago will
endorse what we say, in Tuesday’s elec
tion, by a majority that will astound the
Virginia clique tomeuihat.
THE BEPDBUCU TICKET.
We need not urge upon our Repblican
readers, nay, upon all our readers -who are ’
in favor of sustaining the Government in :
this crisis,, the importance of cordially re- j
spending to the nominations of the Repot
lican Convention on Saturday. The ticket !
put into the field is a good one—as unex-;
ceptionahle as any that could have been
flamed. The leading places on it are filled
by gentlemen against whom not a word :
can be said. Mr. Ramsey, as candidate,
for Mayor, and Messrs. Gindelle, Warner ,
and Carpenter, as candidates for Commis
sioners of the Board of Public Works, can
be enthusiastically supported by every tax 1
payer in the city. They are t.lm men do-1
manded by. the change made in our manic- ;
ipal law—the men for the responsibilities
of their several stations. The Conven
tion could not have. dona .better. The ’
other candidates are not generally as well r
known, but they are reputable and carefiil
men for whom all Republicans will'be
glad to vote. I.
Therols this to beadd of the Convention
and its nominees: The first was unpacked,'
and the lut were the unbiased choice of the
delegates. There has never been a Con
vention more fairly conducted —less un
der the inflneuca of cliques and factions.
We shall be surprised if the ticket which
it has put into the held, is not triumphant
ly sustained by the people.
Of one thing all voters maybe assured:
There is not the suspicion of a want of loy
alty to the Government, attaching to any
name on it It is a fighting ticket—named
as such; and its failure now—in fact, any
thing else than its success, by a large ma
jority, would be accounted a defeat of the
policy at Washington—an acknowledg
ment of the rightfnlness of the cause of the
traitors who have made war upon the Re
public. .
EFFECT OF THE WAR HEWS.
THE SUNDAY IS CHICAGO.
The Churches—The Stre«ts~The Saloons.
INCIDENTS OF LAST EVEHIKG.
Yesterday was a day long to be remembered
In Chicago. Whatever the future has in store
to continue or increase the present excited
state of feeliug } the earliest effect of the war
news of Saturday evening, on and throughout
yesterday, was of too marked a nature readily
to be paralleled in a city usually co -quiet on
Lord’s Day. The city was given up to an in
tense and all pervading excitement, the like
of which has never been known in this com
munity.
The day, an exception to the pluvial rule of
April thus far, was brilliant and cloudless, and
the streets were thronged all day. The de
mand for the morning papers was immense,
and the gratified newsboys forgot their noisy
cries and served the eager crowd from their
bundles. As the morning advanced, church
hours drew together less than their usual
throng. [Men felt that we are in the midst of
a revolution, and while this drove many Chris
tians to their sanctuaries, still very many or
dinarily regular church-goers turned aside
from quiet Sunday walks, in the. hope and
eager quest of M some new thing ” from the
seat of war.
All classes seemed to be possessed by one
feeling and one sentiment. The hotels were
thronged all day, end the usual week day
haunts knew even more than their usual week
day hustle. The Germans congregated in
their saloons and heir-halles and hrimfnll of
patriotism and zeal for the country and the
Government, gave their valor full expression
in words, not to say that they are men who
allow sentiments of that class to rest with
words only.
The largest crowds of the day filled the
Tremont House, and the discussions of the
false and absurd dispatches of the morning
papers were vigorously canvassed. Had the
Fort surrendered ? How about those rafts in a
Fort long since reported short of fuel ? vr»>a
any one sent Anderson a boom oi logs, or did
he use Columblads for his rails ? Will Quincy
granite bum ? Are bricks combustible ? Did
the three fire-engines get there in time to save
the magazine? How about Major Anderson’s
taking tea with Gen. Beauregard ? Was there
any Sumter after after all ? Was there any
reason to believe anything anyway, or any
other man ? These were the changes rung on
the dispatches among Hie hundreds who from
church-goers were turned loose on a
news hunting quest on this, the first
Sunday of the second American Revolution.
The churches were not, however, entirely
neglected, and the congregations gathered’
were on the qui vive to ascertain how the pul
pit would meet and treat the crisis. The pas
tors and officiating clergymen ft ad a greater
than usual call for higher-spiced brmfletlc an,d
sacred pabulum, and that which had no smack
of Sumter and the war times on which we
have come, fell below the demand.
Nor, Indeed, could it bo expected that a sen
timent and excitement so powerfully pervad
ing the minds of their hearers, was to be over
looked by those who, from the sacred desk,
act wisest when, by living and vital chords of
feeling, they guide and control the minds of
hearers. There were some powerful and ex
cellent allusions and improvements made of
the war times, in the pulpits of this city, yes
terday. The news came too late on Saturday
for most of the clergymen to alter their prepa
arations already made, but there were few
churches in which, either in prayer or dis
course, the present war tidings were not feel
ingly and eloquently improved.
At the First Congregational Church, Rev.
W. W. Patton preached a very able discourse
from
Matthew ate. And ye shall hear of wars, and
rumors of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for
all these things must come to pass, but the end is
not yet.
The preacher made a powerful application
of the words of the text to the present
troublous times, which he said the Christian
should look upon as God’s Providences bring
ing about great changes for good, and for the
progress of humanity. He drew a figure of
the husbandman sending his plow-share
through green sward, before which flowers and
verdure disappear, leaving all a present
ruin, but it is done that beauty and utility of
the standing grain and the harvest may spring
up there. So God has used the desolations of
war In all time as one of the Instruments of
breaking up old matted institutions of tyranny
and oppression. He said the present struggle
is one In which cveiy Christian may rise from
his knees, and shoulder his rifle. This is a con
test involving toe essential liberties of the
people, and what every Christian holds dear.
We must give up our Constitution and our
liberties, or defend them. He reminded his
hearers that although Sumter might now be
taken by toe enemies of our country, so
Bunker Hill was taken, and like Bunker win
it be retaken. Seldom has a more hearty,
earnest and eloquent, patriotic and Christian
discourse thrilled toe hearts of a congregation
than this to which this brief reference does
little justice.
In other churches in toe city the great theme
of popular feeling was variously entered upon.
At toe Second Unitarian Church, (Bev. Mr.
Coliyeris) on Chicago avenue au able and elo
quent discourse, timely in Its theme, was fol
lowed by a congregational singing of toe hymn
** America.”
“ My country, 'tis of theo
Sweet land of Liberty -
Of theo Icing.
Land where my fathers died.
Laud of the Pilgrim's pride,
.Prom every mountain side
Let freedom ring."
And any one who looked upon the audience
ae these spirit-stirring words swelled upon the
air, was reminded that there is yet plenty of
patriotism extant, rusted by long disuse, but
not a whit diminished in the sons of our
lathers.
I At the Plymouth Congregational Church
Rev. Mr. Coming delivered a very effective
■ discourse characteristically alive with living
: references to'actual events. In many other
[ churches appropriate references were made,
among these, at morning service in Trinity,
where Bishop Lee of lowa officiated.
At Bryan HaH at 3 P. M. there was a very
large and respectable gathering of the Old
Liners in the Anti-Slavery cause. Several ex
i: orient and stiring speeches were made,and a
: series of these meetings Inaugurated to be
: held trl-monthly on each Sabbath afternoon.'

From thereat of War.
Charleston, (Tift Augusta,) April 13.—Fort
Sumter has surrendered. - The Confederate
flag floats oyer Its walla. None of the garri
son or Confederate troops are hurt.
Charleston, April 13.—Two of Maj. An
derson’s magazines exploded. Only occasional
shots are fired at him from Fort Moultrie.
The Morris Island battery is doing heavy
work. It is thought that only the smaller
magazines have exploded.
The greatest excitement preralla. The
wharves, steeples,* and every available place,
is packed with people.
United States ships are in the offing, but
have not aided Maj. Anderson. It is too late
now to come over the bar, as the tide is ebb
ing.
Charleston, April. 18.—The ships in the
offing appear to he quietly at anchor. They
have not fired a gun yet.
The entire roof of the barracks at Sumter
are in a sheet of flame. Shells from Cum
mings Point and Fort Moultrie are bursting
in and over Fort Sumter in quick succession.
The Federal flag still waves. Maj. Anderson
is only occupied putting out fire. Every shot
on Fort Sumter now seems to tell heavily
The people, we anxiously looking for Maj.
Anderson to strike his flag. It is stated from
a reliable source that up to 10 o’clock to-day
no one at Moultrie was killed. Eleven shots
from Fort Sumter penetrated the floating bat
tery below the water line. The few shots fired
by Maj. And rson early this morning knocked
the chimneys from the officers quarters at
Moultrie like a whirlwind. Maj. Anderson’s
only hope now is to hold out for aid from the
ships. Two ships are now making in
toward Morris Island, with a view to land
troops and silence the batteries there.
Charleston, April 13 —Fort Sumter is un
doubtedly on fire. The flames are raging all
around it. Major Anderson has thrown out a
raft loaded with men, who are passing up
buckets of water to extinguish the fire. The
fort is scarcely discemable. The men on the
raft are now objects of fire from Morris Island.
With glasses, balls can be seen skipping over
the water striking the unprotected rail. Great
havoc is created among the poor felfows. It
is surmised that Major Anderson is gradually
blowing up the fort. He scarcely fires a gun.
At half-past XI o’clock flames were seen burst
ing from the port holes. The destruction of
Fort Snmter is inevitable. Four vessels, two
of them large steamers, are in sight over the
bar. The largest appears to be engaging Mor
tis Island.
The flames have nearly subsided in Sumter,
but Major Audcrson does not fire any guns.
Geo. Beauregard left the wharf just now in a
boat for Moms Island.
The excitement, if anything, is increasing.
I have read a letter from 8. C. Boyle«tou- da
ted 55 o'clock tali afternoon. He says mTtone
man. was killed or wounded. The iron battery
had been damaged. The rifled cannon of the
battery did great execution on cumter, and
were all aimed into Anderson’s port holes.
Three ot Sumter’s barbette guns were dis
mounted; one of which was a ten inch colam
biad. A comer of Fort Sumter opposite
Moultrie was knocked oil The steamers Wa
ter Witch, Mohawk, and Pawnee, it was.
thought, were the three first vessels seen in
the otfing. Another correspondent says the
bombardment has closed. Major Anderson
has drawn down the stars and stripes, and dis
played a white flag, which has been answered
from the city, ana a boat is on the way to
Snmtcr.
The breaches made In Sumter are on the
side opposite to Cummings Point. Two of
its port-holes are knocked into one, and the
wall from the top is crumbling.
Three vessels, one of them a large-sized
steamer, are-over the bar, and seem to be pre
paring to participate in the conflict. The fire
of Morris Island is divided between Sumter
and the ships-of-war. The ships have not yet
opened.
Charleston, April 13, A. M.—The batteries
on Sullivan Island, Cummings Point, and
Stevens’s Battery, are pouring shot and shell
into Fort Sumter. Maj. Anderson does not
return thefira. Fort Sumter is still on fire.
There has just been two explosions at Fort
Sumter.
Charleston, April 13—P. M.—The federal
flag was again hoisted over Fort Sumter, when
Wm. Porcher Miles, with a flag of truce, went
to the Fort. In a few minutes the federal flag
was again drawn down by Maj. Anderson and
the white flag again unfurled. \
Charleston, April 12.— The bombardment
continues from the floating battery, the Ste\
yens and other batteries. Sumter continues
returning fire. It is reported that three ves
sels are now off the bar.
Charleston, April* 13.— The firing has
ceased for the night! to he renewed early in
the morning. Ample arrangements are made
to prevent re-inforcement to-night.
[Special Despatch to N. Y. Herald-3
Two men were wounded on Sullivan’s Isl
and and a number struck by spent projectiles.
Three ships are visible In the offing. It is be
lieved that an attempt will be made to night
to re-lnforce Sumter, From the regularity of
the firing throughout, Anderson has a larger
force than was supposed. It has rained all
day.
LATER.
Charleston, April 18.—Bombardment is
continuing with mortars, and will be kept np
all night. It is supposed that Anderson is
resting his men for the night. Vessels cannot
get in, as a storm is raging and the sea rough,
making it impossible to effect re-inforcement
tonight. The floating battery works-well.
Charleston, April 13, 10:30 jl m.— At in
tervals of twenty minutes, firing was kept np
all night at Fort Sumter. Maj. Anderson
ceased firing from Fort Sumter at 6 o’clock in
the evening. All night he was engaged in re
pairing damages and protecting the barbette
guns. He commenced to return the fire at 7
o’clock this morning.
Fort Sumter seems to be greatly disabled.
The battery on Cummings Point does Fort
Sumter great damage.
At 0 o’clock this morning a dense smoke
poured out from Fort Sumter. The Federal
flag is at half-mast, signaling distress,
The shells from Fort Moultrie and the bat
teries on Morris Island fell into Maj. Ander
son’s stronghold, thick and fest, and they can
be seen in their course from the Charleston
battery.
Charleston, April 13.—The cannonading is
going on fiercely from all points, from the ves
sels outside and all along our coasts. It is re
ported that Fort Bnmtcr is on fire.
The FfaUeet aiul the Virelula Com-
minioners.
Washington, April 13.— The Commission*
ere from Virginia had a pleasant interview
with President Lincoln this morning. The .re
sult was simply a statement by the President
that he will act according to the Inaugural
programme, hold the puolic propertyTand
maintain the defensive. The President’s re
ply was given in writing. It win be recollect
ed that the Commissioners came here under
instructions to respectfully ask the President
to communicate to the Virginia State Conven

date baa been received
by the War Department from Charleston.
Bffbet of the War Nezrs.
April 18.—The war news from
Charleston creates a profound sensation In
this city and throughout the State. Theeeh
pd sentiment is that theFederalGoverameat
is right and shall be sustained.
April IS.—The war news is
received here with feelings of regret.: There
is no excitement, but the prospect for the fu

Sumter. I shall repress it if I can, and take
places which have been seized. I shall to the
best of my ability, repel force by force. If
the war news proves true, I ahaij probably
withdraw the malls from the seceded
States. I consider the forts . and other
property in these States yet belong to
the United States. I shall not attempt to col
lect duties by armed invasion. I don’t mean
to aay, however, that I may not land forces to
relieve Forte.” He reaffirms the Inaugural, ex

President Idaeoln’s Proclamation*
. Whereas, the laws of the United States have
been, and now are, violently opposed in sev
eral States by combinations too powerful to
be suppressed in the ordinary way, I, there
fore, call for the militia of the several States
of the Union, to the aggregate number of
75,000, to suppress said combination and exe
cute the laws. I appeal to all loyal cit
izens to facilitate and aid in this
effort to maintain tbe laws and the
integrity of the national Union, and the per
petuity of the popular Government, and re
dress wrongs long enough endured. The first
service assigned to the forces,probably,wfll be
to repossess the forts, places, property which
have been seized from the Union. Let the
utmost care be taken consistent with the ob
ject, to avoid devastation, destruction, inter
ference with property of peaceful citizens in
any part of the country; and I hereby com
mand persons composing the aforesaid com
bination to disperse within 20 days from date.
I hereby convene both Houses of Congress
for the Smith day of July next, to determine*
upon measures for public safety which the
interest of the subject demand.

The War Movements In Washington.
Washington, April 14. —Arrangements are
made to concentrate military at any threaten
ed point. There is the greatest anxiety to
hear fhrther Southern news. It is rumored
that an attack will be attempted on Fort Dela
ware, Md. The War Department has taken
steps to prevent it. Five officers of the Navy
have tendered their resignation, which were
refused. Their names will probably be strick
en from the list The National Volunteers of
this city passed resolutions denouncing the
military operations of the Government, and
expressing sympathy for the secessionists.
The Guards at the Departments are largely in
creased.
Washington, April 14.—The President will
issue to-morrow his proclamation calling out
75,000 militia to suppress insurrection in the
seceded States and cause the laws to be duly
executed.
The first service will probably be to repos
sess Forts that have been seized from the
troops of the United States. He also convenes
Congress on the 4th of July. The War De
partment is busy preparing details to com
municate to States.
From Charleston.
Charleston, April IS —At half-past one
o’clock the firing ceased and unconditional
surrender was made. The South Carolinians
were surprised that the fight was over so soon.
After the flag-staff was shot away, Wigfall was
sent by Beauregard to Snmter with a white
flag to offer assistance to subdue the flames.
He was met by Anderson, who said he had
just displayed a white flag, but the batteries
had not stopped firing. Wigfall replied that
Anderson must haul down the American flag:
“Surrender or fight was the word!” Ander
son then hauled the flag down. Several of
Beauregard’s staff came over and stipulated
that the surrender must be unconditional for
the present, but subject to terms of Beaure~
gard. Major Anderson is allowed to remain
in actual possession for the present.
Charleston, April 14.—Negotiations were,
completed last night. Anderson will evacu
ate to-morrow morning and embark on the
.war vessels now off the harbor.
Five of Anderson’s men were wounded, one
it was thought mortally. After the surrender,
a boat with ten men was sent from the ship*
of-war ontaide to Morris Island, requesting
permission for the vessel to enter and take off
Anderson’s command. It Is reported that An.
derson suit enfleredbeca use his quarters and
barracks were destroyed, and he had no hope
of reinforcements.
The fleet lay off thirty hours, and could not
or would not help him. His men were pros
trated by over exertion. Explosions heard at
Sumter were caused by shells igniting. The
barracks caught fire three times from the hot
shot from Moultrie, Everything in ruins but
the casement; many guns were dismantled.
The walls look like honeycomb. Moultrie is
badly damaged. The houses on the’ Island
are riddled. The boat was sent from the Fort
to-night to officially notify the fleet of the sur
render of Snmter. It Is not known what will
he done with Sumter or the vanquished.
Tlie VlrgJniaConrenUo n—A Dispatch
from Got. Plcketu,
Richmond, Va., April 13.—Messra. Carliale
and Early deprecated the action of South Car
olina in firing on Sumter, and expressed their
devotion to the stare and stripes. The 8e ces
sionists replied and applauded the gallantry
of onth Carolina and claimed that whatever
the Convention did, the State would go out of
the Union.
The Governor communicated a dispatch
from Gov. Pickens giving on account of the
bombardment, saying, “There is a furious fire
on us from Sumter. We will take the Fort
and can sink the fleet if they attempt to land
elsewhere. We can whip them. We have
nearly 7,000 of the best troops in the world,
and a reserve of 10,000. We will triumph or
perish. Let me know what Virginia will do.”
In debate it was said the Southern army
would march through Virginia, and thousands
would join them.

SPECIAL DISPATCH
TO THE CHICACO TRIBUNE.
Washington, Sunday Evening, April 14th.
Ton cannot imagine the indescribable fury
consequent upon the news of the surrender of
Fort Sumter, which was manifested here last
night. The Union men were everywhere cry
ing out with wrath and shame, clenching their
fists and swearing fearful vengeance. The
first impression everywhere prevailed that
Anderson had played traitor. The President,
however, says that ho was instructed to sur
render if thoroughly convinced of the impossi
bility of relief before his scanty stock of pro
visions was exhausted. A private dispatch is re
ported as saying that Capt. Doubleday, Ander
son’s next in command, threatened to resist the
surrender and blow up the • Train magazine
in case the fort was given up, and thus end
the fight, the fortress and all in it at one blow.
The report farther says that Anderson had
him put in irons; but it lacks confirmation.
Mrs. Doubleday is here. She is a spirited wo
man, and utterly discredits the rumor.
The Government is utterly at loss to under
stand the failure of the fleet to act The
subject willbe made the matter of official in
quiry.
The President’s proclamation calling out 75,-
000 volunteers to meet the emergency, creates
unbounded enthusiasm. A second proclama
tion, declaring Washington under Martial Law,
will appear to-morrow, or soon thereafter, un
less the signs of an attack disappear.
Ik is expected that 10,000 men from New
York and Pennsylvania will be concentrated
here in the next three days.
Fifteen hundred men are now under arms
guarding the public buildings, and the various
approaches to the CapitoL
Got. Dennison, of Ohio, telegraphed here
last night offering ten thousand men from bis
State. Governor Curtin is hero making ar
rangements for the immediate occupation of
the Capital by three Pennsylvania regiments.
Officers from New Fork city are here offer,
ing their regiments. Gen. Lane, the newly
elected Senator from Kansas, will resign his
seat and raise a regiment of Kanamr boys who
have been through the wars. Gen. Robinson,
one of the oldest citizens of Pittsburgh, has
volunteered as a private.
These are the indications of public senti
ment The New York Herald, it is said, will
give way before it, and come out this week ad
vocating the maintenance of the Government
at all hazards. Advices from all parts of the
North show entire unanimity in support of
tiie Administration. The war spirit is intense,
and hourly deepening. Large crowds of men
are gathered on the comers of the streets and
in all public places, expressing eagerness for
the fight
Everybody is fearfully anxious to know how
the great Northwest will respond to the war
news.
The President is calm and composed; but
folly up to the great requirements of the
crisis. It is believed by all who come within
his influence, that he will act with Jackson,
energy and promptness.
Every member of the Cabinet, even Mr.
Seward, Is now for crushing the rebellion
at all hazards. In Washington, party has
gone down before the danger. All men ex
cept the few secessionists are for sustaining
the Administration.
Lieut Ellsworth leaves for the West on
business connected with the militia. He says
he will bring in his Zouave corps.
