last evening. It is said to have embraced very ill-tempered comments on the admirable letter of Secretary Holt, published a few days since as a portion of the Hayne correspondence concerning his negotiations for the surrender of Fort Sumter. The offensive and insulting portion of the letter in question is believed to have been an allegation that the Government's possession of Fort Sumter was an unwarranted act of Major Anderson, by and through the President's violation of his faith to South Carolina, &c. The following dispatches from Washington are received by telegraph: Washington, Feb. 9.--The President has approved and signed the twenty-five million loan bill, which passed both Houses as originally reported with amendments pending that the revenue from the loan authorized by the Act of June, 1860, or so much as may be deemed necessary, shall be applied to the redemption of the Treasury notes issued under the Act of last December, and for no other purpose.

ocsin of war. Our people are inflamed to-day, and but for the cool hands and heads at the helm of affairs, an attack would be made this day. In conversing with some of the officers, today, they remarked, that if the Governor would permit they would capture it in six hours. Can you do it? I asked. "Yes, we will do it, and do it quickly." How many lives will it cost? I asked. "Lives; we are not counting lives; that flag shall not float there,"was the reply. But, said I, it may be that the Government will take it down, or Major Anderson will. "We don't want it taken down, we intend to shoot it down." I must confess, my heart saddens when I think of the mourning this affair must create in our midst; for these soldiers are no hirelings, they are our children, our brothers, our husbands, the flower of South Carolina; and all this on account of men interfering with other men's affairs — intermeddler. But "The Lord reigns, let the people rejoice," and tremble, too Virginius.
