ountries; third, decisive legislation in regard to the negro, and fourthly, decision as to what States shall constitute the Confederacy. In this latter subject all concur that no free State shall be admitted, and if any State shall afterwards abolish slavery she shall be excluded from the Confederacy. I am informed that this will be a point insisted upon by Carolina. Georgia has already declared it to be her demand, and the rest of the seceding States will unite with her on this. Major Anderson, it is believed here, is adding greatly to the strength of his position. He has dug a mine under the causeway leading to the gate of his "donjon," and will blow up the first company that attempts an escalade. This he can easily do without injuring himself or his fortification.

On Wednesday, however, we obtained a permit to visit Fort Moultrie, and having done so, found it under strict military discipline, and things progressing bravely — so much of the wall as was commanded by Fort Sumter was being rapidly mounted with sand-bag batteries, from nine to ten feet in thickness, and the same in depth, and was almost completed; all the guns were mounted but two, and those were to be during the day. Maj. Ripley thought that in the course of a day or two he could withstand a heavy battery from Sumter, which it was supposed could be readily taken by an attack simultaneously from the several points, though with some sacrifice. Two mortar batteries were being erected on the island without the fort and about two hundred yards below it. Batteries were also being erected on the far and of the beach for the protection of the light infantry companies. It was estimated that over one thousand negroes
