The sole object of both parties to these reciprocal pledges was to prevent collision, and the effusion of blood; in the hope that some means might be found for a peaceful accommodation of the existing troubles, the two houses of Congress having both raised committees looking to this object. Thus affairs stood until the action of Maj. Anderson (taken, unfortunately, while Commissioners were on their way to this capital on a peaceful mission looking to the avoidance of bloodshed,) has complicated matters in the existing manner.

From South Carolina. Charleston, Dec. 31. --Strong fortifications are being erected in and around the harbor, to resist any attempt to send reinforcements to Fort Sumter. Gov. Pickens is daily receiving dispatches from the Southern States, tendering men to defend South Carolina. [Second Dispatch.] Charleston, Dec. 31. --There is no restriction placed by the authorities on sending telegrams from this city. No attack on Major Anderson is meditated.
