EVAN&v.UE, 1NO. TUESDAY MOKNINU MABCII 12 TnANKS. We are under obligations to Mr. George Stockwell for St. Louis papers ia advance of the mail. Also to James Ferry, of Adams Express, for similar favors. Kraouatlon of Fort Sumter. Our telegraphic dispatches this morning annnounce that oHicial dispatches had been received at the War Department from Major Anderson, conveying tho Intelligence) thai he had provisions for fifteen days only, and that he must be reinforced or abandon the fort. A Cabinet Council wa3 held and Gen'l Scott recommended that the fort be evacuated, and, it is thought, his advice will be followed. It is a delicate point with the Administration. It ought to, and will, avoid sheddine: blood unless it absolutely is forced to do it. It is conceded that it will take an army several thousand strong, backed by a powerful fleet, to succeed in throwing men and provisions into Fort Sumter. Before these could be concentrated there, timely information would be conveyed to the Confederate States and they, in turn, would immediately send large bodies ot soldiers to Charleston and the contest there would, without doubt, be one of the bloodiest ever recorded on the Eaares of history. This is the dread alternative presented to the Ad ministration, and. however mortifying it may be to their pride, we presume they will avoid the shedding of blood and with draw the troops, in the hopes that the affec tion of the border slave states for the Union will be revived, and reaction will commence in the Cotton States. Some prominent se cessionists at Washington admitted so say the dispatches that ia pur suing such a policy, Mr. Lincoln would crush the whole secession movement and ruin its originators. On the other hand, it is not to be denied that the evacuation of Fort Pickens and Sumter is likely to be regarded as having been extorted from the fears of our govern ment to cope with the youner and thriving Confederacy, and may but embolden them to devise new insults and commit additional outrages against the American flag. To what extremes their madness may drive them no one can tell. But perhaps it will be easier to submit, for awhile, to their insane ravings, trusting to kindness and forbearance to restore them to their right mind, than to have the melancholly satis faction of quenching the rebellion in blood Washington Items. senator hu tuner is said to have the inside track for the mission to France. His appointment would be notb ing like so popular with western people as that of John C Fremont, nor do we think he would make so creditable a minister. Col. W. W. Seaton, for a long number of years Editor of the National Intelligencer has been appointed Postmaster of Washington City. A more satisfactory appointment could not have been made. The contest for the mission to England has narrowed down to Thomas Corwin and Senator Hale of New Hampshire. We should like to see the " old wagon boy," the successful applicant. Mr. Wigfall attempted to make a speech at a dinner party on Thursday night, but having drank quite freely, he didn't exactly know what he was saying. He alluded to Mr. Breckinridge's defeat for President in a rather unparliamentary manner. His only excuse was his condition, and Mr. Breckinridge wittily replied that his defeat was no special wonder when he came to look at his supporters. Hfij, The Southern Illinojsan says the Shawneetown Mercury one of -the most bitter partizan sheets in Egypt-has come out in support of Mr. Lincoln's inaugural. This has proved very annoying to its fireeating friends. The same paper states that among the applicants for the Postoffice in Shawneetown is the present democratic incumbent, Mr. Elt Green. (p&yThe Terre Haute Express gives an account of a deed of darkness on Saturday night. It seems that some secessionists turned otT the gas, and hoisted a palmetto flag from the top of the Lincoln pole. The flag, however, was hauled down early Sun" day morning. BkThc precise majority against a convention in Tennessee was J 1,875. -The true test of the Union strength was on the vote for delegates, in which the Secessionists were beaten just 64,054. Affray.- A terrible fight took place on the steamer Union, between a couple of deck hands, last night. One of them, arm ed with " brass knucks," struck the other so severe a blow a3 to crush his skull the brains actually exuding through the aper ture. The man was still alive at fast ac counts. His assailant had not been arrested e2r"One of the signs of the times is af forded by the fact that Charle3 Sumner of Massachusetts, i-- urging the appointment of Mr. Crittenden of Kentucky, to the Supreme bench. JfaSMt is said that Chief Justice Taney is very much ilLspleaseil with Mr. Lincoln's Inaugural, iusumui-li as it relates to the Su preme Court. Bft We this morning lay before the readers of the Journal a correct copy of the inaugural address. The perusal of it ha3 but deepened the impression the telegraphic report produced ia our minds. Viewing it in connection with current developments, we cannot honestly doubt the pacific character of the address. We are pursuaded that they who look upon it as a declaration of war see not what is really to be seen but what they wish to see. Lou. Jour.

Communicated. Rock port Correspondence. Rockport, Ind., March 8th, 1861. Editors Journal: This has been Court

week (Circuit Court) here, and as there were several important cases on the Docket, we have had more than the usual amount of excitement. The most important case tried was that of J. C. Richardson, indicted for murder. Shanklin and Barkwell appeared for the prosecution, and Laird and Judge De Bruler for the defense. Without detracting in the least from the merits or eloquence of the other lawyers, it is generally conceded that De Bruler made one of the best efforts ever heard in the Court House. It was argumentative and convinc ing, tie Bitted tne evidence morougniy, showing the weak points plainly, and bring ing out the circumstances favorable to tne client, and giving them such prominence, and so skillfully arranging them, that, it was impossible to lose sight ot them. 1 he Court House, which was jammed lull, including a smart sprinkling of ladies, listened with breathless silence. The Jury were out scarce twenty minutes when they came in with a verdict of not guilty. The relaxed visages and universal shaking of hands showed what general satisfaction their verdict gave. That Richardson killed the man, there is no doubt ; but it was under circum stances of such great aggravation, that the Jury thought him justifiable. The scoundrels who, some three or tour weeks since, broke into a store here, stealing about a hundred dollars worth of goods, were " sent up" for hve years apiece. A slander suit, respecting the chastity or a married laay, was Drougnt up, eminent counsel being engaged. Between seventyfive and one hundred witnesses were sworn, the Jury empanneled, a statement of the tacts madekto them, when lo, the parties compromised, to the evident disappointment of a crowded Court House among whom were old and young, the merchant and me chanic, the religious and irreligious, all eager to feast their minds on the sins and misdeeds of poor fallen humanity. " Oh shame where is thy blush I Divorce cases are pretty numerous, some being successful, others being doomed still to repent at leisure their haste or imprudence. There was an election held here last Monday for Postmaster. Two Polls were opened at the Court House. The Republicans alone voted. The test wa3, did you vote for Lincoln? If answered in the affirmative the vote was accepted. Handbills were distributed through the town in the morning, calling for a no party election at the Postoffice in the evening. At the Court House polls John H. Smith cot the highest vote cast. At the no party precinct, L. S. Gilkey was the successful man, and so the matter stands for the present. The inaugural was received with different comments, but the majority of all par ties have determined to stand by "Old Abe" and see him through. Spencer Countt Legislative Summary. On Friday both branches of the State Legislature held three sessions, and disposed of a large amount of business. In the Senate the entire morning session was consumed in discussing the bill for the creation of live additional branches to the Bank of the State, without coming to any conclusion. The House discussed the questions relative to the two penitentiaries during most of the day. Below is a summary of the proceedings on Friday : Senate. Mr. Newcomb offered a joint resolution, which was referred to the committee on federal relations, ratifying the amendment to the Constitution of the United States, proposed by Congress, in reference to the relation of the General Government to the institution of slavery. A motion to take from the table the House bill providing for the laying off by the Bank of the State, of five additional bank districts, and locate branches therein, was discussed during nearly the whole three hours of the morning session, and finally agreed to. The bill was then amended so as to require the Bank3 to pay municipal taxes betore the provisions ot the bill under consideration could be made operative. Several other amendments were proposed but not agreed to. , After soendinor the mornintr session in a discussion of thBi?nk bill, the"Se"nate informally passed over its consideration and took up the House amendments to the House School bill, which were read and concurred in. . House bills were passed to quiet the title to acertaiu piece of ground in Vanderburgh county; to provide a change in the terms of the common pleas court in Tippecanoe district; to provide a change in the terms of the common pleas court in the Floyd, Clark tfud Scott district; authorizing township trustees to sign certificates of the purchase of saline lands which were purchased with school funds by the inhabitants of any township for school house sites, &c; to fix anew the times of holding court in the 2nd' judicial circuit; to amend Jue act incorporating the South Bend Manufacturing Company; to amend the practice act in relation to the qualification of witnesses, so as to make parties to suits witnesses in their own causes, and to license dogs and provide for compensation to owners of sheep killed or maimed by dogs. Senate bills were passed to ascertain the amount of fees received by the Sheriff and Clerks of the Supreme and Circuit Courts, and of County Auditors and Recorders; and for the organization of Street railroad companies. The House concurrent resolution for investigating the frauds committed on the swamp land funds was taken up and concurred in. The House having disagreed to the Senate's amendment to the bill for raising a revenue for extinguishing the Stat" debt, a committee of free conference was appointed which reported the striking out of the levy of 5 cents for 1862 and coutinuing it for 1863, and each year thereafter, which was concurred in. The House bill for the establishment of five additional branches of the Bank of the State was taken up again at 5 o'clock, and the amendment adopted in the morning was reconsidered, when the bill was put on its passage, and failed for want of a constitutional majority. House bills were passed to revive the character and extend the time for the construction of the St. Louis & Jefferson ville Railroad, formerly known as the Alton, Mt. Carmel and New Albany Railroad; to provide for the removal of the dam across the Calumet river in the State of Illinois, and making appropriation for the expense of the same; to amend the act to provide for the management and disposal of the estates of jiersons who havo gone to parts unknown ; to amend the charter of the St. Joseph Iron Company; and authorizing county libraries to loan certain lunds and to regulate the same. Senate bills were passed to provide ' for the location, vacation, kc., of public highways, and to repeal certain sections of the

general road law in relation to the rian.

The House continued durit.g the forenoon in the consideration of this bill, in which it rei'r.sed to concur in an amendment making an appropriation of $25,000 a year for the Northern Prison, after considerable discussion, showing the hostility of the House to the prison. After many amendments, the bill passed ayes 59, nays 14. General Appropriation Bill. The Senate hnrl mrl tlipsn amendments to tlli3 bill: 1. To appropriate $15,000 to the Northern Prison. 2. To increase the eontingent fund to $5,000. 3. To appropriate $14,000 to the Southern Prison. In the first, the House refused to concur, but concurred in the second and third. Southern Prison.
