These will pass quietly into the possession of the Southern Confederacy. An idea may be obtained of the difficulty the Government would find in reinforcing the forts from the following paragraph: Capt. Ward, of the Navy, called on to give his opinion as to the best method of reinforcements, laid before the Secretary a plan by which two large men-of-war could each engage a land battery, with a certainty, almost, of being destroyed, while a third vessel of lighter draft could run in under Major Anderson's guns. But this was not regarded as certain of success.

, to whom Jefferson Davis has confided the direction of military operations there. The Cabinet had a special session of over three hours last night, in which the policy concerning Fort Sumter was fully discussed. An informal conference was also held this morning, at which several members were present. No decision has yet been reached, but the general opinion prevails to-night that the troops will be withdrawn. This condition of things was purposely contrived by Mr. Buchanan, and Mr. Holt declares openly that the present Administration can in no way be made responsible for any course that may now be adopted. He says that the fort could have been reinforced thirty days ago without serious difficulty, and measures had been taken for that purpose, but Mr. Buchanan positively refused to have them executed. His whole policy was to bequeath a complication to his successor which compelled one of two alternatives, either withdrawal, or reinforcement with the certainty of civil war

Fort Sumter, and it is abundant for a considerable time, except in bread, which is not sufficient for over thirty days. One of the first and most important questions, therefore, before the Administration, will be whether Major Anderson will be supplied or withdrawn. --That decision cannot long be postponed, for though he now receives meats and vegetables from the markets of Charleston, this permission may be cut off at any moment by an order from Gov. Pickens or Gen. Beauregard, to whom Jefferson Davis has confided the direction of military operations there.

The intended evacuation of Fort Sumter. The Washington telegrams and letters generally agree that the Cabinet has determined on the evacuation of Fort Sumter as a discreet " military movement." Some go so far as to fix on Friday next as the day. The Washington correspondent of the Baltimore American, noticing the subject, says: The question of peace or war seems to have been settled in Cabinet to-day in favor of the former, after a stormy session, in which Mr. Chase urged the integrity of the Republican party as paramount to every other consideration. Something with respect to the troops at Fort Sumter had to be done, and that without delay, as official information received yesterday left no doubt that Major Anderson could not hold his position over two weeks longer without additional supplies. Thus the issue was forced upon the new Administration — reinforcement or withdrawal of the garrison.--The Cabinet met at eleven o'clock and discussed the question until two P. M., w
