dquarters, May 24, 1861. to Capt. Stephen Elliott, Jr.--dear sir: In reply to yours of the 17th to the Governor, I am directed to say that the reason why the Sea Coast an Parish companies have not been called into service here, has been because it was distinctly understood to be the desire of the Parishes that their companies should remain to guard and protect their coast, and to keep up a strict police where the negroes were so numerous; for this purpose sabres were given to them — the cavalry — and not given to the up-country companies. Your local companies were required for immediate protection. The Governor begs me to assure you must positively and distinctly, that that was the only reason the Parish companies were not called into service here, and as a matter of course you will at once see the justice of the reasons. The Governor would have most readily called upon you, had this not been the case. Respectfully yours, F. J. Moses, Jr., Aide-de-Camp and Private Secretar

Sufferers' lands. In the history of Connecticut, the designation of a tract of 500,000 acres of land at the western extremity of the Connecticut Western Reserve in Ohio, given by the General Assembly of Connecticut to the inhabitants of the towns in that State who had lost property in British incursions during the Revolutionary War, and to the heirs or assigns of those who had died. The total number of sufferers was reported at 1,870, and the aggregate losses about £161,500. The grant by the Assembly was made on May 11, 1792. In 1796 the sufferers were incorporated in Connecticut, and in 1803 in Ohio. The State of Connecticut subsequently sold the whole tract for $1,200.000. See Cleaveland, Moses; Garfield, James Abram

m Fort Sumter, &c. The Charleston papers, of Monday, furnish the following items: We have information that at an early day it is expected that the State Convention will be summoned together again, with a view to the action of the Montgomery Convention or Congress, and without any reference to Fort Sumter. Lieut. Hall, bearer of dispatches from and for Major Anderson, reached the city on Saturday on his return from Washington. He proceeded to Fort Sumter, accompanied by Cols. F. J. Moses, Jr., and M. A. Moore of the Executive Staff. Col. Hayne has also arrived. A photographer, by special permission of the Governor, visited Fort Sumter on Friday, and succeeded in taking several life-like likenesses of Major Anderson and a group of the officers under his command. Major Anderson, Commandant at Fort Sumter, as we have reason to believe, has asserted that several of the letters lately published in Northern papers, purporting to proceed from Fort Sumter, were spuriou
