THURSDAY, APRIL -18.1861.,
CHICAGO VOttnVTEEBS !
Last night tile city was' alive with vol
unteer meetings; The coolest resolution,
coupled with the most stirring enthusiasm,
marked all the gatherings. Between fit
teen and sixteen hundred men are already
on the muster rolls.
To-night there will be a general rendez
vous at Bryan Hall for further enlistment,
aud to provide a fund for meeting the con
tingent expenses of the companies until
tire State shall make provision for the
same. The meeting will probably have to
adjourn to the street for rodm very early

tthk proclamation.
The President’s -Proclamation was bo
mangled by telegraph that we print it as
we find it in the New York papers to which
it was correctly transmitted. It will he
found on the second page, and the Presi
dent s reply to the Virginia Commissioners,
also. Read both.
VOTE OF TfiE CITS'.
A. correct table of the returns of
day's election will be found in another col
umn. Mr. Rmnsey’s majority is 1,673, and
Ibc total vote cast is 14,875. An error was
made in our footings yesterday by the sub-
Btitution of ilr. Rumsey’s figure in the
Seventh *Ward to the Bryan cblmfinj and
vice versa —mailing a difference of over 400
votes.
LITE CITY
Election.
Xindicating our own course and that
of the supporters of Mr. Rmnscy In the
late city election, we have no aspersions
to cast upon anybody. Let us remind the
public, and particularly those who say that
there should have been.no division—that
Chicago should have sent up a united
voice, etc.—ol one fact, two wit.: that the
Bryan ticket was nominated on Tuesda-
April 9th, and that tUe war w;„ was n *’
pub .shed here until Zaturduy, April 13th.
At the time tne Biyan ticket was nomi
aatet-» tae Government was making mili
cary preparations which, it was understood,
a majority of the gentlemen making those
nominations “were opposed to. It was
wnoicn that the Chicago Times was influen
tial in bringing out the ticket, and this cir
cumstance went a great way in prejudicing
the people against the worthy and patriotic
citiaen who was named for Mayor. To
sustain the Government in its supposed
efforts to reinforce Fort Sumter, (and sev
eral days before a gun had been fired,) the
Republicans of the city commenced a vig
orous movement, and on Friday elected
their Convention delegates. Several at
tempts were made by Mr. Rumsey’sfrlenda
during the week to concentrate the whole '
rule of the city bn. Mr. Bryan—it being 1
known that he was true to hia country's
flag in all emergencies, and Mr. Romany
himself being exceedingly averse to a nom
ination. Bui when the news came on Sat
urday morning of the bombardment of
Sumter, and when the Chicago Times of
that morning charged the issue of civil
war all upon the rt Abolitionists, n with not
a word of rebuke for the Charleston parri
cides, who had initiated the strife, the Re
publican delegates determined to have a
ticket of their own from top to bottom.
Under the circumstances* existing, how
could it have been otherwise?
The result shows that the city divided
nearly on the old party lines. After the
nominations were made, both sides adopted
platforms pledging their firm and unceas
ing support to the Government in its war
with the rebels, Was it the duty of cither
party to withdraw its candidates? If so,
which party f if more ttine had
bees allowed for interchange of views,
such an arrangement could have been
made. Mr. Ramsey had no desire to be
Hayor; on the contrary he was tperse to
Uc office up to the very closing of the
pdls. But he was not authorized to with
daw without consulting his friends. No
consultation -could be had In the brief time
intervening. The other candidates on the
Republican ticket could not afford to lose
his strength, while leaving to their oppo
nents the strength of Mr. Bryan’s name.
Events pushed themselves forward with
out regard to the desirability of & unani
mous vote in Chicago, and there was no
way but to carry the ticket through. This
is tho philosophy of the whole matter.
VIRGINIA*
Virginia has not yet seceded, though in
anticipation of such action, her State bonds
yesterday Jumbled down a whole flight ot
stairs. Oar special Washington dispatch
mentions a rumor that the Unitors have
been beaten. In the Convention by seven
snajority. Jeff Davis’s promise to bring the.
seat of war to Richmond, has not had pre
cisely the effect he intended.
Too Complimentary*
The Times speaks of the traitor Davis as
‘•IBs Excellency President Davis.” This is
rather too sweet to be wholesome. The ed
itor’s fondness for titles may be plead In miti
gation, bat wc submit that The leader of the
insurgents is hardly entitled to such M dis
tinguished consideration” at the hands of
tbctteprofefifiipg lGyalty to the United States
and the Conrtitntion.

Stewart, the owner of , the marble palace and
great dry goods store on Broadway, has offered
the Governor of New York me million of dol
lars to sustain the Government, -enforce the

Col. Graham— Fort Sumter.
Thercport has been current about'the city
for the past few days that Col. Graham of
our city superintended the building of Fort
Sumter. The. mistake probably arose from
the fact that CoL' Graham surveyed Charleston
harbor beforejhe fort was built. ThcColonel

Messrs. Benjamin Cabpentke, John G.

named ‘gentleman having a majority of 81
Votes over Hr. E. 8* Watohb,
We regret the Section; of Afr. under
the existing circumstances. We regret it, not
that he is not qualified to discharge the duties
of the office—not that he Is nbta manbif in*
and established character—not that he'
is a gentleman of German birth. We take
pleasure In saying that he is abundantly qnali-'
fled for his new position, that he is a man of
unblemished reputation and
bity, that he is as good an American as any
body in’ Chicago. We regret.it elmply.be
cause it was an act & baid faith onthe part'of-
Mr. Letz’s countrymen to withhold their votes
from Mr. Warner, after they-had «greed-to-a
different polity, In a Convention where they
were fully represented, the more intelligent
of o'er Germans condemn. II even more
earnestly than any native bom cltizena .They
«gue that the* Americans voted straight ibr
Gindele instead of Gray, whom they might
easily have elected, and that the contras tls ex
ceedingly unfavorable to the Germans.
At the same time there are cUrc nni **’ Julft flt >
fully explaining the result. It was zealously
urged by Mr. Lett’s * friends, tthobgh not by
Mr. Letz himsdl), that , if he were elected, the
labor on the streets and sewers would be con
.trolled by a German majority in the Board and
would therefore principally to Ger
mans. This argument had great weight with
the laboring class, and some hundreds were :
thus deluded from the support of Mr. War
ner. It was urged by thejfcame parties fhht an
injustice hid been done td the German ele
ment ih not giving Iheni one inember "of the
Police Board, which they ought now to.retali
ate. Then Mr. Lind ran as an independent
candidate for the West Side fiaetob’et and got:
some 400 votes*-every one of them taken
from Mr. Warner. Again, Mr. Lete’s connec
tion with the Lutheran Chifrck, of-which he
hafe ever been a zealous, tohsistent and very
liberal member, gave Mm a ' large lift in that
Quarter. Furthermore,-a needlees and- un
principled trade was made In some, of the
wards by wMch votes for Lets were swapped.
for votes for Rumsey—a trade hertilnly not
sanctioned by Mr. Rumsey .or anyxuember of*
the Republican Committee. Taken together,
these certainly make • a . combination suffi
cient to account for the result The only
wonder is that Mr. Letz should have succeed
ed by so meagre a majority.
Regretting, for the reasons alleged, that Mr
Lete is elected, wo nevertheless repeat that he
will mate a good zZ~.tr, and that the Board
6 a .-*nliii6tered on the right principles,
without favoritism in nativity or politics.
There will be no more and no less contracts
and labor assigned to Americans, Germane,"
Srandlhttrians, oV Irishmen than there would
hraVe been if Mi*. tet£ had been defeated. In
matters of this kind It : will be theaim of the
Board, as it has been of the Sewerage and.
Water Commissioners, to treat all classes of
citizens*alike, without 'distinction of birth-'
place or creed. Any different course will
meet the prompt condemnation of the com
munity and of the Tbibdite.
A Humane Suggestion*
Editors of Tribune
i Noticing a paragraph in your issue of the
17th, that certain Sank Directors in New
Hampshire had agreed to contribute one hurt*
dred dollars each towards a fond to be raised
for the families, of those soldiers who may fall

example well worthy of imitation by the citi
zens of Chicago. Shall we not at once com*
mence such-a <ff ;
those of our own' city who may? fall in the
offort to maintain the honor of the Hag, and
the perpetuity, of the Union ?

THE SUMTER SURRENDER.
Additional Particulars of the Fight
and Fiddle-faddle.
[Correspondence of the N. T. Herald.]
Chaslkston, Sandal night, April 14, ’6l.
The lost act in the drama of Fort Sumter has
been concluded. Major Anderson has evacu
ated, and. with his command, departed by the
steamer Isabel from the harbor.
WhenCoLiGhesnut, Aid of Gen. Beauregard,
went to offer assistance, after the• -fire, be says
the fort was like an oven, and he could hardly
breathe. It was so hot that Major Anderson
received'him in one of the casemates. Inquiry
being made, how many were killed, he said
“None.” “ How many on your side ?” “None”
was the response. “ Thank God,” replied Ma
jor Anderson, “ there has been a higher Power
over us.”
Major Anderson says .it is preposterous to
fight such a people. One of the officers in the
fort remarked that they had endeavored not to
fire on exposed individuals. “ Yes,” said Major
Anderson,- “ I gave orders not to sight men,
bat to silence batteries.”
The fort was set on lire three times withhot
shot on-Friday, but was extinguished. On
Saturday it was again in flames, and then be
yond control. - Alter the fire ceased the Sur
geon-General of the State troops went down
and offered his personal services to aid the
wounded;
As regards harbor defence, the/ortw Just as
good as ever. , The casemates are perfect , the guns
there in prime condition, and bear on txkh sides.
Major Anderson was obliged to throw over
board a large quantity of powder to prevent
• explosion, and it was floating around the fort
to-day,.. ' jt? ...
"One*of the Aida.cirried brandy to Major
Anderson iu a boat, after the fire, and the lat
ter said it was very acceptable, as the men
were completely : exhausted by their labors. I
mention JMb to show the kind and chivalrous
relations between the officers. ,
‘Before going Into action Major Anderson
sent word by an aid of Qeneral Beauregard to
the_ Governor, thanking him for kind atten
tions during the past two months, and vet?
solemnly Bald, “ Farewell* gentlemen, if we do
not meet again here, 1 hope we shall meet in
a better world. V
Major Anderson expresses himself much
pleased that' no lives had been sacrificed, and
says that to Providence alone is to be attribu
ted.the bloodless victory. He compliments
the firing of the Carolinians, and the large
number of exploded shells lying around attests
their effectiveness.
The number of soldiers in the fort was
about seventy, besides twenty-five workmen,
who assisted at the gone. Bus stock of t>ro
visionswaa almost exhausted, however. “He
would have been starved out in. too more
days,.
The entrance to the fort is 'mined, and the
officers were told to be careful, even after the
surrender, on account of the heat, lest it
should explode.
Had the surrender not taken place, Fort
Sumter would have been stormed to-night.
The men are crazy few a fight.
The bells have been chiming all day, guns
firing, ladles waving handkerchiefs, people
cheering, and citizens making themselves gen
erally demonstrative. If is regarded as the
greatest day in the history of South Carolina.
An old slave passed through the hottest fire,
with a sloop load of wool, on Friday evening,
and came safely totjie city. Somebody told
him he would be killed in the attempt ‘‘Can’t
help dat,” said he, “ most go to de town to
night If anybody hurt dis chile or dls boat,
masea see him about it shuch. Hia sloop re
ceived four, shots. ”
It Is reported here that Major Anderson sent
in his' resignation, to take effect on the inau
guration or the Lincoln Government, but no
notice was taken of it.
FINANCIAL AND CO3DBEBBCIAL.
Sound Views of the Crisis*
tFroto the K. ¥. Herald April 16.]
The war feeling was even more apparent to
day in financial and commercial circles than
on Saturday. A Tiearty unanimity pervades
the pubHc mind, which has been so slow to
kindie to [the. fighting point. Every one—
Democrat and Republican, conservative and
radical—agrees that the must be
supported with money and men, and the old
Union of thirty four States must be preserved
at all hazards, and at any expense of life or
means.'' And, the closer the subject is exam
ined, the clearer people see that the evils of
the war which is now. forced upon the North
will fall, nht upon this section, but upon tire
rebel States. ItisnotNewTorkandßdston—
but Charleston, Ravannahj Mo
bile, New Orleans, andGalveston—which will
lose their ttude in consequence of the war. It
is not in our streets, but in theirs, that grass
will grow ibis summer. It is riot hei-e* but
there, that, crowds of idle, hungry men are
likely to besiege the Government with menaces
and riots. For while here at the North abund
ant supplies of foodyrill pour in regiilafiyer
egy day fruifi the great productive region of the
Northwest,’and the military and naval prepa
tions of the Government will afford employ
ment to all the Idle mechanics and laborers of
this section of the country, in the
South the closing of the ports will
necessarily throw out oi employment
hundreds of thousands of men, and the inter
rupiion of. commercial intercourse with
the West will deprive the Golf States of the
supplies of food which are necessary for their
subsistence. It Is fast becoming apparent to
the more JbroeJghtbd ambng our financiers
that, so far as New York city is concerned, the
business produced by the war will be greater
inamountthan the business destroyed by it;
that the progress of hostilities must drive
.capital to this city in search of safe employ
ment; and that, notwithstanding the loss of
The Southern market, New Fork win do a
better business this summer and next fall than
any one has anticipa ted.. It is hoped that the
President will lose uo time in dosing the

Things at Washington.
[Special Dispatch to the N. T. Times.]
Washington, April 15.
On the pert of the Government the greatest
activity is observed in preparations for move*
meat of troops, and collection of necessary
supplies. As a matter of course, however,
for obvious reasons, nothing is made known
as to the offensive operations designed for the
vindication of the Government. The regular
and volunteer military companies are con
stantly drilling. The streets resound with the
tramp of troops, and the flags over numerous
private residences in every part of the city
indicate their temporary use oa quarters oc
cupied by its defenders. The utmost vigi
lance is exercised to prevent a surprise of the
town by the revolutionists from Virginia and
Maryland, and to-night, 1 understand, batter
teries are to be posted at each of the bridges
across the Potomac.
It is, unfortunately, true that there are yet
to be found here some, holding commis
sions in the public service, whose language in
public places fails to indicate ■ the loyalty of
the true citizen and patriot.. I understand
that Captain. o* Major Wood, of the Army,
has been reported for violent and offensive
denunciation of those-who oppose secession,
expressed: at the table of a public hotel, in the
Presence of Senator Wlimot and others,
ienh: Johnson, of the Navy, la stated to have
declined the service, recently, as Commodore
Stringham’s Flag Lieutenant, because he
would not fight against the South. This is
freely asserted.
It is suggested here that all the Northern
States need additional legislation, for the more
thorough organization and drill .of the militia,
in the present crisis.
PROTRACTED CABINET SESSION.
The Cabinet went into session this morning
at 10 o’clock, and continued nearly all day,
after a night session for the greater portion of
the night previous. Office-seekers received
but little attention.
Gen. Scott spent about two hours with the
Cabinet to-day; subsequently, he, with the-
Secretary of War and Adjutant-General.
Thomas, repaired to the War-Department,
where they spent several, hours together, ma
turing their plans of operation. No mover
will be made by the Secretary of War without
Gen. Scott’s knowledge, and all statements of
a difference between them, or the President,
and Gen. Scott, are without foundation.
ANTICIPATED ATTACK UPON FORT PICKENS.
Dispatches were received here to-day, stat
ing that Davis and Walker had ordered Beau
regard to Pensacola, and an attack on Fort
P.ckens is anticipated by the War Department
Gen. Scott remarked today that if any engage
ment took : place at Pensacola, they would
find it far difierent from' attacking a- starved
.company of seventy-five men with a' force of
7,009. He thinks an attack on Fort Pickens
may prove successful in the end, bat says if
the fleet with-reinforcements, arrive, it win
be one of the bloodiest engagements ~ ever
known on this Continent. .He has an opinion
that they will hestitata long before attacking
it. ' • • • - ’ •
COL. LANDER AND THE DISTRICT VOLUNTEERS.
It is reported that CoL F. W. Lander ha
been tendered the command of the volunteer
forces in the District He has not jet elgui- -
fled his acceptance, and may prefer to act in a
private capacity. He to highly esteemed with
the Administration and Gen Scott
