TO ,1R.nS! TO .lit.IIS!

Just before going to press we received'

by Telegraph the astounding intelligence

that Jeff. Davis with a powerful army are

within 24 hours march of Washington.

The greatest consternation prevails.

Virginia is in open rebellion.

Terrible scenes are being enacted in

Baltimore. The passage of the United

States volunteers is fiercely disputed by

the people of Maryland.

Fearful excitement rages in Cincinnati

an attack upon that city is hourly looked

for. Thousands of troops arc pouring in.

#6?" The wildest excitement rages in Crawfordsvillc. Volunteers are pouring

in from the country.

Attention, Railroad Men!

Can arrangements be made with the officers of the Louisville New Albany and Chicago, Terre llaute and llichinond and

Lofayctte and Indianapolis railroads, by which the thousands of our citizens who

desire to visit tiic encampment at Indianapolis, can be carried at half-fare?

the government.

•DKPAR'ITRI! OF THE TUOOI'W.

Last Thursday morning will always rcmnin a marked event in the history of Crawfordsvillc. At an early hour in the morning, crowds of our citizens thronged the streets to witness the departure of the

first corps of soldiers raised in our town for the defense of the government. At 0 o'clock, the company Numbering over nine-ty-three members were drawn up in line on Green street, under the command of Carr Wilson, 1st. Lieutenant. Here each soldier was presented with a copy of the

Now Testament by Harvey H. Bcnefield. In a few moments the Guard's Band arriving they were placed at the head of the column and the order to inarch given. To the splendid music of the band, the company marched to the Depot, and here it was that many an affecting scene was wit

nessed. Mothers and fathers parting from their sons, sisters from brothers, and friends "from loved companions. It was a scene of tears and anguish, and presented to tho reflective mind the stern realities

and horrors of war, tho greatest scourge that ever befalls nations. At precisely 110 minutes to 10 o'clock, the train moved off with the flower of our youth, amid the most deafening cheers and huzzas from the crowd that now numbered some tlirei

thousand. Slowly the multitude wended their way back to their homes and places of business, sorrow and sadness was upon every countenance, and a gloomy foreboding that we shall soon witness a scenc of carnage and desolation unparalled in the

world's history. Wo arc living in strange times, an epoch in the calendar of God's eternal years, that will redden the pages

of future history. .....

WAR TIMES.—A

OVB COUNT**.

We are lost in amazement and horror at the present awfnl position of oar beloved country. The idea that American citizens would ever engage in a fratreidal war, has hitherto been a njattcr of disbelief. Our reliance upon the common sen3e and judg

ment of the people warranted that belief. But alas how mistaken and false have been our conclusions. In seven of the extreme Southern States revolution against the General Government has run rampant for months, forts and money, the public prop

erty of the nation have been seized, powerful armies raised and the Government

defied. Notwithstanding all these highhanded and treasonable demonstrations of our neighbors, the great mass of the American people have remained calm and

urged a peaceful and honorable settlement going on

inexorable determination to avenge the insult offered a flag that no foreign power ever yet dared to insult. The people are

maddened, and woe be to him who refuses to uphold the glorious ensign that has

waved in triumph over the bloodstained battlefields of the Revolution, the fierce

contests of 1812, and the march of our

victorious armies on the plains of Mcxieo. That glorious old flag, the emblem of freedom, the hope of civilization and the worldwill never trail in the dust, but will float

in proud supremacy over every inch of American soil, from the rocky coast of Maine to the Rio Grande. Now that the die is cast, the sword unsheathed, let us all stand by the Ship of State, and maintain the Government and the Constitution

as our fathers bequeathed it t-j us in the days of Washington and Jefferson. It is our only hope for the future, a legacy that we owe our children. Political differences

At a meeting of the citizens of Montgomery county, held at the Court Louse

on Thursday evening, ISth lost., for the I

purpose of making arrangements to provide for tho support of the families left by the men who have volunteered fur the pur

pose of defending the stars and stripes and the preservation of the Union, Sam 1 Hcrron was called to the chair and Jas. II. Tamnmny appointed Secretary.

Resolved, By the citizens of Montgomery county now assembled, that we believe that the doctrine of secession as contended for, and illustrated by the recent conduct of the seven seceding States, is a doctrine at war alike with the Constitution of the United States, and the highest interests of our common humanity—that secession is treason, and seceders are traitors.

Resolved, That the doty resting upon all true men and loyal citizens to crash out domestic rebellion, and to punish domes* tic treason is as binding and sacred as the duty to repel foreign invasion.

Resolved, That we hereby pledge ourselves to support the Government of the United States in the full and free exercise of all its constitutional powers, at all times, under all circumstances, at every

hazard, and in all the States of the Union. Resolved, That the Constitution of the United States, properly interpreted and faithfully obeyed, and the laws of Con

gress honestly enforced, furnish sufficient guaranties for all the interests of every State and every citizen in the Republic.

Resolved, That in the present crisis, there can be no neutral ground, that each

and every man must be for or against his Government. The books were then opened for the enrollment of the names of volunteers, whereupon a great number enlisted.

patriotism. GOOD APPOINTMENT*. The State Sentinel says that Col. Thos.

A. Morris has been appointed by the Governor Quartermaster General of the Indiana militia, and will at once enter upon the discharge of his duties. A better appointment could not be made. Col. Morris is a thorough business man and will give honor to the position. He has the confidence and respect of men of all par

ties and all shades of opinion. He graduated at West Point, in the class we believe, with Major Anderson, and for years was actively engaged as a civil engineer

on the leading railroads of this State. He

We visited the camp in the afternoon, and found the boys in good spirits, getting things iu ship shape and adapting themselves to the change of habits that their new profession enjoin^. Colonel Gordon, of the Artillery, was in command.— The artillery company raised by Colonel Gordon arc a fine-looking body of men, and it is a noteworthy fact that in fortyeight hours from the time that the first effort was made to raise the company, one hundred men bad been enrolled, and the organisation was perfected and the officers commissioned. It is true the enthusiasm to engage in the war was very great, but much of the credit of this rapid transformation of civilians into soldiers is due to the energy and zeal of the commander.

The camp will present a lively scene to-day. Gen. Wallace informs us that companies enough to form a regiment will

likely be on the ground.. It vti contemplated to start the First Begiment one-half at 12 o'clock, and one-half at 6 P. M. today for the East, but intelligence was received late last night that a mustering officer would be sent to this point to receive them formally, and it is not certain when they will leave.—Stale Sentinel.

him about it, suhab."— Hia aloop received four shots. The fort is burned into a mere shell, not a particle of woodwork can be found. The guns on one side of the parapet are entirely dismounted, others split, while the guncarriages are knocked into splinters.

Major Anderson says the accuracy of the the firing surprised him, and that if he had had two hundred more men, one-half would have been killed for want of suitable protection.

When Colonel Chesnut, aid of General Beauregard, went to offer assistance, after the fire, he 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 having been made how many were killed, he said,

None." How many on your side V— None," was the response. Thank God," replied Major Anderson, there has been a higher power over us."

Major Anderson stated that he surrendered his sword to General Beauregard as the representative of the Confederate Government. General Beauregard said he would not receive it from so brave a man. He says Major Anderson made a staunch fight, and elevated himself in the estimation of every true Carolinian.

During the fire, when Major Anderson's flag-staff was shot away, a boat put off from Morris Island, carrying another American flag for him to fight under—a noteworthy instance of the honor and chivalry of the the South Carolina Seceders, and their ad miration for a brave man.

Major Anderson sayB it i» preposterous to figlit such a people. One of the officers in the fort remarked that they had en-

dcavored not to fire on exposed individu- ~J"

als. "Yes," said Major Anderson, "I

gave orders not to sight men, but to silence batteries." 23oth men and officers were begrimmed with smoke and powder.

The batteries which have done the most mischief are the Dalilgreen battery, Steven's battery, and the rifle cannon.

The fort was set on fire three times with hot shot on Friday, but was extinguished. On Saturday it was again in flames, and then beyond control. After the fire ceased, the Surgeon-General of the State troops went down and offered his personal services to aid the wounded.

As regards harbor defense, the fort is 1 just as good as ever. The casemates are perfect, the guns there in prime condition and bear on both sides.
