But mere soldiers are not always overstoc

The people continue in a high state of excitement on account of the occupation of the forts, and the great topic of discussion is, How far Major Anderson acted under orders, and what next?

From Washington. Washington Dec. 30. --The cause of Secretary Floyd's resignation is said to be the violation of the Administration's pledge in allowing Maj. Anderson to change the military status of Charleston Harbor, and the refusal to remand him to his original position. Secretary Floyd considered his honor pledged to South Carolina. He will return to Virginia, where he intends to carry out his policy of restraining against any overt act, till dissolution is inevitable. It is not certain that Maj. Anderson will remain at Fort Sumter. He may be yet remanded, provided satisfactory assurance can be given that he will not be attacked by the South Carolinians. It is stated that Gen. Scott submitted to the President, several days ago, a plan for blockading Charleston, besides strongly reinforcing all Southern garrisons, and for making other military preparations; but his plan was not favorably received.
