CHVRLESTON, April 12.

The following in the telegraphic correspondence between the war department at Montgomery and Gen. Beauregard immediately proceeding the hostilities.

The correspondence grew out of the formal notification by the Washington government which is disclosed in Gen. Beauregard's first dispatches.

..CHARLKSTON, April 8.

To S. P. Walker, Secretary of "War: An authorized messenger from President Lincoln just informed Gov. Pickens and myself that provisions will be sent to fort Sumter peacefully, or otherwise by force. G. S. BEAITREGARD.

MONTGOMIRY, April 10.

To Gen. G. S. Beauregard: If you have no doubt of the authorized character of the agent who communicated to you tho intention of the Washington Government to supply fort Sumter by force, you will demand its evacuation, and if this is refused proceed in such manner as you may determine to reduce it.

S. P. WALKER, Sec. War.

HARLESTON, April 10.

S. P. Walker, Sec. of War: The demand will bo made to-morrow at 12 o'clock. G. S. BEAUREGARD.

MONTGOMERY, 10.

To Gen. Beauregard: Unless there are special reasons connected with your own condition, it is considered proper that you should make the demand at an early hour.

S. P. WALKER, Sec. War.

MONTGOMERY, 10.

To Gen. Beauregard: Telegraph the reply of Major Anderson. S.P.WALKER.

CHARLESTON, 10.

To S. P. Walker, Soc. War. Maj. Anderson replies: I have the honor to coknowledge the receipt of your communication demanding the evacuation of this fort and to say in reply thereto that it is a demand with which regret that my sense of honor and my obligation to my government prevents my complianco.

He adds, probably I will await the first shot and if you do not batter us to picces wc will be starved out in a few days.

G. S. BEAUREGARD

MONTGOMERY, 11.

To Gon. Beauregard: Wc do not desire needlessly to bombard Fort Sumter. If Maj. Anderson will state the time at which as indicated by him ho will evacuate, and agree that in the meantime he will not use his guns against fort us you arc thus to avoid the effusion of blood. If this or its equivalent be refused, rcducc the fort as you judgement decides to be most, j.racti cable. S- WALlvbR.

CHARLESTON, 12.

To S. P. Walker He would not consent to write to-day. C«. S. BEAUREGAKD.

J. CHARLESTON, April 11.

Intercepted dispatches disclose the fact that Mr. Fox, who had been allowed to visit Major Anderson on the pledge that his purpose was pacific, employed his opportunity to devise a plan for supplying the fort by force, and that this plan had been adopted by the Washington Government, and was in progress of execution.

CHARLESTON, April 12.

Thc ball has opened—war is inaugurated. The batteries of Sullivan's Island, Morris Island, aud other points, were opened on I'ort Sumter at four o'clock this morn-

Fort Sumter has returned the fire, and afresh cannonading bas been kept up. No information lias been received from the seaboard yet.

The military are under arms. The whole of our population are on the street*, and every available spot is filled with anxious spectators.

NEW YORK, April 12.

A special dispatch to the N. Y.. Herald, says Fort Moultrie began the bombardment with two guns, to whioh Andersao replied

with threa shots from his gnns, alter whi«h the batteries at Mt. Pleasant, Cnmming's Point and the floating batter/ opened a brisk fire of shot and shell.

Anderson replied only at long intervals until between 7 and 8 o'clock, when he opened from two tier of gans looking towards Fort Mooltrie and Steven's battery, but up to three o'clock failed to prodaee serious effect.

During the greater part of the day Anderson directed his shots principally against Moultrie. Steven's and floating batteries, they being the only ones operating again: him.

Fifteen or eighteen shots struck the floating battery without effect, Portions of the parapet of Fort Sumter were destroyed, and several guns shot away.

The fight will continue all night. The fort will probably be carried by storm.

It is reported that the Harriet Lane received shots in her wheel house. She is in the offing.

No other government vessels are in sight. The troops are pouring into the city by thousands.

CHARLESTON, April 12.

The fire has continued all day without intermission. Three of Fort Sumter's guns have been silenced, and it is reported that a breach has been made in her east wall.

The answer to Gen. Beauregard's demaud by Maj. Anderson was that he would surrender when his supplies were exhauated, that is if he .. as not rciuforced

Not a casualty has happened to ny the troops. Of the 19 batteries in position, only seven have opened fire on Fort Sumter.— The remainder arc held in reserve for the expeeted fleet.

TMO thousand men reached this city this morning and embarked for Morris Island and the neighborhood.

CHARLESTON, April 12.

Bombardment continues from floating Steven's aud other batteries. Fort Sumter continues to return the fire.

Three war vessels are reported to be off the bar. The firing has ceased for the night.

It will be renewed early in the morning. Ample arrangements are made to prevent reinforcement to-night.

Two men were wounded on Sullivan's Island, and a number struck by splint. Three ships of war are visible in the of­

LIEUTENANT TALBOT. WASHINGTON, April 10. I venture to say that this has been the most exciting day ever witnessed in the Capital of the country.

An order was issued yesterday for the District militia to assemble this morning for inspection, and, on these mustering, it was announced that Government demanded sixty volunteers from each battalion to go into immediate service. The complement of men was generally furnished but many resigned, saying that they would not be placed in a position to be forced to fight against their countrymen. It is generally supposed these companies will, for the time being, be engaged only on duty at their armories at night, but always to be ready on call. This shows that the President has apprehensions of an invasion of the Capital. -r

Every body seems .to expect trouble at Charleston. Dispatches received her to-day indicate that the spirit of the people is roused.— Tf a United States vessel approaches Sumter it will certainly bo sunk. The steamship Baltic is now stated to be the particular vessel detailed for this duty. It will be recollected that she has on board, besides a large quantity of stores, a number of launches, yawls, &.C., and the troops on board are intended to repel attacking parties, for which purpose tliey are supplied with boat howtizcrs.

W ASHINGTON, April 1

A proper expression can not be found to express the intense feeling that has prevailed here for the last two days.

The sudden determinatiou of the Ad-1 ministration to make a foray against thc South, followed so soon by the mustering of the militia of the District into servicc, has roused all classes and parties to the impending ruin that is fast rushing upon us.

That thc steamer Baltic is ordered to Charleston, no one now doubts, and that she will be fired upon if she attempts to reach Sumter, is considered equally certain. Then will arrive the question, whether the Government will exert its power to reinforced and resupply the forts at all cost. A determination to do so is arousing and uniting the South against it.

The Southern Commissioners left here for home this morning. They stopped at Baltimore until five P. M., when they took the bay line of steamers for Norfork.

By the late floods in the Virginia rivera several railroad bridges have been carried away, and we have not received a Charleston paper since Monday. This is the cause of the Confederate Commissioners going home by the way of Baltimore.

I was in error yesterday when I stated that the Virginia Commissioners had arrived. I was misinformed they have not yet reached here, but are expeeted by

every train. Washington is certainly a military camp. Soldiers, singly and in groups, meet one on every torn. .-I '..

Quite a large number of the military persistently refused to take the required oath to support the Federal Government.

They were politely discharged. It is said, however, that there is a tacit understanding between soldiers and officers that they are not to go out of- the Distriot, and if either Maryland or Virginia secoeds, they are not to fight against them.

The war excitement has swallowed almost every other interest even the officeseekers do not dog the heels of the heads of departments so presistently. In fact, many of the patriots are getting shaky in the knees and are leaving for home, this atmosphere at the present time not suiting them.

WHOM NEW YORK. NEW YORK, April 10. The brig Perry will be ready for sea in a few days.

The work on the Wabash and Savannah goes on briskly. It is rumored that the steamer Vanderbilt has been sold to the Southern Confederacy.

scattering marks for thc cannon ot the rebels, will perhaps save unnecessary bloodshed. The government has chartered a number of small schooncrs and other

expedition appears probable from the fact that thc charter does not bind them to go further south than Savannah.

These schooncrs filled with sand bags will sail in, bearing boats on the side towards Sumter.

These boats will of course be entirely protected from thc guns of the rebels by the wall-like sides and solid contents of thc larger vessels.

This plan will be adopted only in the event that the rebels fire upon the small steamer loaded with provisions which will be first sent.

In that ease of coursc thc fort will receive not only provisions but men, and the plan above detailed is an admirable one by which to throw any requisite forcc into the fort without any probability of any serious loss.

The men-of-war are to steam in and hold themselves in readiness to check any attempt to intercept the boats by armed ves gels as well as to keep the neighborhood of Sumter as clear as possible from assault ing parties, who cau bo as easily, dealt with by shells from the steamers thus leaviDg Major Anderson at leisure to receive reinforcements, and if need be deal with forts Moultrie and Johnson which he can silence without much trouble.

Tho plan has been thoroughly considered and as all the leaders are men of mettle and courage, success is certain without much if any loss of life. It is quite possible that unforseen circumstances may cause an alteration of the programme, but it is certain that the plan above detailed has obtained commendation in high quarters and it appears feasible.
