ther wisely or not, it is now too late to discuss. Our course now is one entirely of policy and war strategy. We do not profess to be accurately cognizant of the plans of President Davis. If there is to be a war, there must be a plan and a policy for the campaign. These must originate from the heads of the Government. We have now nothing to lose by time — everything to gain. -- War six weeks ago might have placed Virginia now by our side. War would have been in the name of the State of South Carolina.--The glory, prestige, and historic fame, would have been hers. It is no longer so. The blood will be hers; but little of the profit. That blood, however, her people are still, as they have ever been, willing generously to shed-- Nor will any foreign foe unmolested cross her border by sea or land. Beyond this, policy and strategy must rule the action of the General Government at Montgomery. Their decision with regard to this harbor will be carried out by the troops of Carolina.
late celebrated Hopkins L. Turney, is in the city. He has tendered a company of Tennessee infantry to Mr. Davis, to serve the Confederate States. It is almost probable that there will be quite a change in the ratio of Representatives in the Congress of the Confederate States--indeed I learn that the subject is now being considered in connection with the permanent Constitution. According to the old Federal rate of representation, one representative to every 127,462 of population. South Carolina loses (for census of 1860) two representatives; Georgia loses one; Alabama loses one, and Texas gains two. I am very certain the old Federal basis will be entirely annulled, and each State will be entitled to a representative for every 50,000 of the entire population, white and black. The present Provisional Congress has just forty-nine members in all, or say 14 Senators and 35 Representatives. It is thought to be necessary to make the proposed changes for the reason, among others
Virginia in the South. A citizen of Richmond, who has recently visited several of the seceded States, writes is follows, in a letter from Montgomery, Alabama: "I see no difference of sentiment between the people of South Carolina and the people of this state, and of Georgia. They are all agreed as to their future course and policy, and that is to have Southern Confederacy, with Virginia with them if she will come, but if not, they mean to do without her. She is mightily loved in thesls, and not unfrequently a body of well-trained troops. What does all this mean? It don't look like the revolution was going backwards. "The Congress met to-day at 10 o'clock. I had a seat in the Hall, and had a good opportunity to witness the debate of an hour, (before going into secret session,) which sprung up between Mr. Toombs and the South Carolina delegates, on the subject of the tariff. You will see the report of it in the papers of this place, and I will send you one of them."
Brigadier General Beauregard. Even the Black Republican press are forced to acknowledge the sagacity and energy which the Confederate States have displayed in their selection of a President and Vice President, and of their agents generally. One of the best proofs of this is their putting officers of the regular service at the head of their forces. We observe that Major Beauregard, one of the most accomplished officers of the late U. S. Army, who declined the Superintendency of West Point, that he might aid in the defence of his native State, Louisiana, has been appointed by the Confederate Government Brigadier General, and ordered to take command of all the forces at Charleston. In consequence of the foresight and energy of that heroic Commonwealth, South Carolina, there must be already an army of some ten thousand men in that State alone, well drilled, well equipped, and burning with impatience to meet the fee.
