It had been ag reed that revolutionary movements should commence immediately after the fact should be made known that Mr. Lincoln was elected. Accordingly, on the evening of the 7th, November, 1860. a dispatch went up to Columbia from Charleston, saying that many of the National Edmund Ruffin. officers had resigned. That morning, the United States District Court had assembled in Charleston, over which one of the leaders the withdrawal of the State from the Union had not yet been authorized, the conspirators and their political instruments throughout South Carolina now acted as if disunion had been actually A.

nts to effect some practical plan of adjustment, deliberately conceive a conspiracy for the overthrow of the Government through the military organizations, the dangerous secret order of the Knights of the Golden Circle, Commaittees of Safety, Southern Leagues, and other agencies at their command. They have instituted as thorough a military and civil despotism as ever cursed a maddened country. These charges were sustained by an electrograph, which appeared in the Charleston Mercury on the 7th, January, 1861. dated at Washington City on the 6th. --The Senators, it said, from those of the Southern States which have called conventions of the people, met in caucus last night, and adopted the following resolutions:-- Resolved, That we recommend to our respective States immediate secession. Resolved, That we recommend the holding of a General Convention of the said States, to be holden in the city of Montgomery, Alabama, at some period not later than the 15th day of February,

nsom, and John L. Bridges. They came only as commissioners from a State yet a part of the Federal Union, and had no right to appear as delegates. Their object was, according to instructions, See page 198. to effect an honorable and amicable adjustment of all the difficulties that distract the country, upon the basis of the Crittenden Resolutions, as modified by the Virginia Legislature. They soon perceived that their mission would be fruitless, and they returned to their homes. On the 7th a resolution was received by the Convention, from the Alabama Legislature, placing at the disposal of the Provisional Government of the Confederacy of the Seceding States the sum of five hundred thousand dollars as a loan, for the purpose of setting the machinery of the new government in motion. It was accepted with thanks. The preliminary measures for the formation of that provisional government had been taken. Mr. Memminger, Chairman of the Committee to report a plan, had submitted one.

Comstock, General Grant's representative. We were the only civilians, excepting Mr. Clarke, editor of a newspaper at Norfolk. A record of the events of that expedition will be found in another volume of this work. After the battle at Big Bethel, nothing of great importance occurred at Fortress Monroe and its vicinity during the remainder of General Butler's administration of the affairs of that department, which ended on the 18th of August, 1861. excepting the burning of Hampton on the 7th of that month. It was now plainly perceived that the insurgents were terribly in earnest, and that a fierce struggle was at hand. It was evident that their strength and resources had been underrated.
